1.	Never Afraid 03:16	lyrics	buy track
I was never afraid Hiding away Content in my ways Living through the end of days I was never afraid Until you came along With the promise of love Now I can’t give you up The world was gone Then you came along We built a home and now I know You were my purpose all along I was never afraid I have you to save I’ll do what it takes To keep the danger away I was never afraid Once the world changed We’re free to love happily For the rest of our days I know it hasn’t always been easy You need more than me But I’ll try and try To give you a happy life I was never afraid Until you went away Now I can’t face the rest of days Without you to save
2.	Come Back 03:26	lyrics	buy track
I just can’t wait to see you It’s been too long; I wish the time would fly by Counting the days until I’m with you Counting the day until I see you It’s hard to hide That you’re on my mind Calendar pages turn Awaiting your return Been too many days That I’ve had to wait And I’m going insane Can you come back again? I’m waiting here Come back to me I just can’t wait to see you It’s been too long; I wish the time would fly by It’s safe to say I love you It’s safe to say all I think about is you I know I’ll blow it too soon Waste it all on one afternoon And return to the days of missing you Hope they make another season soon
3.	On A Sunbeam 03:36	lyrics	buy track
I remember that day We came to face to face There was something about you That I couldn’t place I made you a friend The adventures began Suddenly I find I only wanna be by your side I travelled on a Sunbeam Flying through the stars To find where you are I wanna see your life Know that you’re alright But I’d be happy just to say goodbye I remember that night Couldn’t forget it if I tried Our worlds were shifting; a perfect storm I was too late and you were gone Weighed on my mind For all of this time I carried on But missed you once you were gone I wonder how things could have been If you’d just stayed with me I came all this way With so much to say But I say hi I’m sorry for that night Are you happy with your life? I still wanna be by your side
4.	Amongst The Stars 03:08	lyrics	buy track
I look up at the stars Wondering what’s out there Is there anything for me If I can get off Tatooine I can’t describe this feeling All I think about is leaving I heard the stories of old Now I want stories of my own A pilot of great renown My hope is that one day Everyone will know my name Known throughout the galaxy I stand and watch the setting suns Wondering when my time will come To leave this moisture farm behind Take my place beyond the sky There’s got to be something more Than shooting Womp Rats in a Speeder I look to the stars and dream of something better; of something that matters I only want to help but round here can’t be myself I feel a force calling to me Amongst the stars is where I’m meant to be
5.	A Novel Idea 02:26	lyrics	buy track
Come with me to another time Step on in to a whole new life Let’s go explore a whole new place We can reach the edges of space We could be anywhere but here Isn’t that a novel idea? Come with me to a whole new world See things through the eyes of someone else Are you ready for a great adventure? Together we can find the answer We could be anywhere but here Isn’t that a novel idea? Oh the places you’ll go The things that you’ll know The ways that you’ll grow With all the things I have to show Oh the things you’ll see The things that you’ll dream The endless possibilities You're never alone when you’re with me We could be anywhere but here Isn’t that a novel idea?
6.	Haunting Me 03:44	lyrics	buy track
I need to move on from my past And the nightmares holding me back I didn’t belong there And there’s no one like you here I got as far away as I could Hoping it would do some good Got to get my head in the game Instead of holding on to a memory Haunting me In everything You were an anchor for me Am I falling? I see you; I talk to you Hiding from the truth This isn’t helping me get along Stuck on bargaining for too long I’ve got a job to carry out Then I don’t have to face myself I’ve been needing to feel something too long Other than the guilt I carry on Haunting me In everything You were an anchor for me Am I falling? Now I’m looking at a ghost Do you know what hurts the most The way I held on When it was a lie all along You were never gone Haunting me Messing with me Deceiving me Lying to me You took something wonderful And took it away from me Haunting me In everything You were an anchor for me Am I falling?
7.	The Story 04:04	lyrics	buy track
I’ve been beaten, I’ve been down Lost my place amongst the world Choices stripped away Victim turned to villian and back again I’ve felt lost and lonely With a history written for me Fighting for the truth All to find a way back to you I’ve weathered the storm Risen up and walked through it all Head held high, now’s the time to take back my life The story’s mine to write I have run and fought and clawed Hunted for answers to it all Tried to find my way But found you can’t go back again I’ve felt anger and despair At the hands of dangers everywhere Hidden behind a familiar face It’s hard to know who to trust these days I have lost and paid the cost Said goodbye to those I love Lived with a target on my back World turned upside down because of that But through the tears and blood and pain I battled all my demons away Bought this chapter to an end Found a path to walk again I’ve weathered the storm I’ve weathered the storm I’m done with this shit No longer taking it My life is my own And I can walk tall
8.	Back To You 02:42	lyrics	buy track
My soul knows your soul My heart knows your heart No matter where we are Together or apart Across this land Throughout time Again and again We’re intertwined Whoever you are Whatever you do I can be certain It’s me and you My eyes see those eyes My mind sees that smile No matter where we go I know that I’m home It all comes back to you
9.	Through The Keyhole 02:58	lyrics	buy track
We’ve been playing all day long No limit to our fun Best friends; we go everywhere But sometimes I wonder Curious if you wander When no one’s watching you Is there magic in you? I close the door; Cross the floor Count to four; Hold my breath just to be sure Creep to the keyhole To see what I can see Hoping for magic Only a kid can dream I call you ‘Ted’ But are you really ‘Joe’ I guess I’ll never know When I sleep at night do you come to life And have an adventures too? Will I find you moving When I peek through? Oh I know you’ve a secret life A toy’s story begins when I leave the room I hope one day to catch you in the act Until that day I’ll keep my eyes on you
10.	Coming Home 03:10	lyrics	buy track
I have wandered the galaxy Trekked through the stars Seen so many worlds Boldly gone far Searching for answers Looking for connection Seeking the adventure All these years that’s been missing Here in this place Here in this time Here with you all Is where I find It feels like coming home again I found a place again Bound by the past We walked along our paths But I answered the call To do something more We’ve been here before With the foes at the door But something is different now I don’t quite have the words yet A lot has happened over the years A lot to bring us right back to here It all comes down to love And the hope you feel it too And the family you find after all this time I find the stars are on my side
11.	Gods & Goddesses 03:04	lyrics	buy track
You sit on your thrones Ruling over us all Hiding behind the lies Of virtues that you don’t abide by You’re important people You do what you want Cause you won’t face a consequence Gods and Goddesses (Gods and Goddesses) We’ve all heard the myths (Gods and Goddesses) All the believes you represent (Gods and Goddesses) But all that power has gone to your head Cruel and fickle Petty and insane Jealous and insecure Egos can’t take much more Power to take anything Playing games and manipulation All for your entertainment The gossip wheels keeps turning Another tragedy unfolding Cover ups and tribulations Assholes causing complications Gods and Goddesses We’ve all heard the myths All the believes you represent But all that power has gone to your head
12.	Last Of Us 03:42	lyrics	buy track
Seen things no kid should see Born into a world A remnant of what it used to be Making the best of this life Just trying to get by But nothing’s that simple here Here with the last of us What’s left of us This mess we’re left with Here with the last of us What’s left of us I’ll give you the best of me I tried to give you my all You deserve much more Than being trapped behind these walls We’re running out of time Making deals to survive Let’s get out of here Here with the last of us What’s left of us This mess we’re left with Here with the last of us What’s left of us I’ll give you the best of me I’m failing you When I could be saving you I don’t know what to do I tried Tried to keep you safe This was the only way I’m sorry
