1. Let Go
Verse 1
Open up those tiny wings
And pretty soon you'll know so many things,
Your heart can hardly hold
Will heal the heart with broken strings.
Grab the hand that holds you so low down,
The one that keeps you there,
And push your hand up through the Earth
And grab the powers hand that you have found.
Chorus
Line them up your fears and watch them all fall down,
Break on through the tears,
The floodgates tear them down.
Suddenly something grabs you inside and takes hold,
Think it's time that I Let Go
Verse 2
Tear the web that ties to your past,
The one that keeps you from yourself,
The one that holds you back,
Free yourself, protect that place.
Repeat Chorus
Island
Open up those wings,
Reach out for the hand that sings to you,
Push up through the Earth and
Grab the powers hand that you have always had.
Repeat Chorus
2. I Remember You
Verse I ~
Why does it, always, come to this,
And I don't know where ya been.
Why do I, always, pay the price;
Before I even begin? Ohhh.....
Long white dress, big black horse, oh my eyes
And your no where to be found.
Waitin' for the knight to, lift me up,
But you only let me down. Ohhh...
Chorus ~
I Remember You
Take the heart that feeds ya nice.
I Remember You
Put it on the ground.
I Remember You
Take the heart, role the dice.
I Remember You
Now it's no where to be found.
Verse III ~
Remember days, not the, simple life,
But what really matters now;
Stop to smell the roses twice,
Once for me, once in case they drown. Ohhh...
To Chorus ~ End
3. Butterfly
Verse 1:
Don't say that I told ya... I'd warn ya
But it won't help no one
I know that what he sold ya...was no good...
He'll take ya to this place of culture...and tell ya that it's just what you need
When what ya need is not locked inside a room.
Chorus:
Breakout like a Butterfly (yeah)
Spread your wings your flyin' high (yeah)
Leave the past behind your minds eye
Verse 2:
Next thing that ya know he's gone... took all his things that say who he is
left you all alone...well that's good
So now you look around...run your fingers through your hair
And realize that he was never...really there
Verse 3:
So open up the window, step out on your own and fly free
And find your Butterfly and find your home

Spread your wings oh oh Spread your wings oohhh

Give me back my weddin' ring
All I ever did for you
Was for you
For you for you

As if you don't care well uh-huh
You'd cross the line between your head and your heart

Ya didn't like it
When my hair came down
Around your face

Bye-bye baby bye-bye
Bye-bye

Locked up my heart
And drove away
Drove through the night

Didn't turn around
I even smiled
And then I spoke I said

I just can't hesitate
But you just make me wait
That's when I say

Tears of nature fill my eyes.
All I see is all I find

Pass the bottle, nothin's makin' sense anyway
Come on over we will toast to my decay

Say it once again, they know who you are
Right back 'round again, 'till the fear is gone again
Say it once again, once again

Traveled 'round here, finally where I'm s'possed to be

6. The Old Man Said
(For my brother, Stewy)
Verse I ~ I'm not so happy today.
I can't shake this feeling.
But I got nothin' to say,
'Cause every time I question it,
My mind has one reply;
Pre-Chorus ~ It says,
Shut-up little girl,
Ya got no control this time.
Chorus ~ Lay your weary head,
On my shoulder,
Is what The Old Man Said.
Lay your weary head,
Didn't know him,
didn't owe him,
Never saw him again.
Verse II ~ My songs they sing about
Some not so pretty, heavy stuff.
Shit I don't care ya see you've all been there enough.
Just tryin' to walk around but my head gets in the way;
To Pre-Chorus ~ Chorus ~ Island
Island ~ Daddy said,
"Little girl you'll need me until the day your dead.
You can't survive,
without my thoughts inside your head".
Well now sometimes I feel like all of that is real,
But then The Old Man speaks
And he clarifies the deal.
He says...
To Chorus Improv. (with "That's all ya need girl" and "I Understand Girl... Is what The Old Man Said") ~ End

Look at your face, into your eyes
I can see through the truth through all the lies
Oh l see me in your truth, when I ask you why;
You say...
Chorus:

Verse 2:
Don't look back just move on,
'Cause I know ya heard me

We all need to dig in order to live, not run,
Not hide, not merely exist, so I...

You said to me, that I, that I was already out there

Season's have changed, summer to winter,
In the blink of an eye
Take on the rain, when your well has run dry...Come on
