BURDEN OF A DAY LYRICS

1. Remember

[featuring Kendall Knepp]

They chased us to the end of the dock
Stay with me we can outlast night
Just stay awake I know we can
I know we can make It out alive
Make It out alive

We outlasted evenings and I barely breathed
How couldn't I see how couldn't I see

Don't turn your eyes if you leave now
You won't remember me
You weren't meant to do this on your own

No I feel the water is calling
The wood under our bare feet cries
Every animal came to watch
The first and last to love die

What a wretched man I am
Who will rescue me from this body of death

Don't turn your eyes If you leave now
You won't remember me
You weren't meant to do this on your own
Just stay close and I'll keep you from leaving
Just move slow and I'll keep you breathing

They chased us to the end of the dock
Stay with me we can outlast night
Just stay awake I know we can
I know we can make It out alive
Make It out alive

Mother mercy the sea's swallowed my graceful
I have failed you I've been too late

Don't turn your eyes If you leave now you won't remember
You won't remember remember me
(You won't remember)

Don't turn your eyes if you leave now
You won't remember me
You weren't meant to do this on your own
Don't turn your eyes if you leave now
You won't remember me
You weren't meant to do this on your own
Just stay close and I'll keep you from leaving
Just move slow and I'll keep you breathing

2. Fool Me Once

I saw the flames feeding a poisonous strength worthy of fear
But as a child with four second futures I never dreamed
That you would take me to a place that's quite like here

Say my brother to think that I embraced in you
Say my lover to think I thought of you my true
How do I look now what would you have me do
Say my lord bring me the head of my youth

Tell me I am sleeping and this is a dream
So I can go on loving as you would have me
I wont let my rival feel the joy I can see it all so clear

I saw the flames feeding a poisonous strength
Worthy of fear

I am no fool who did you think you're talking to my silly little one
Betray me with a kiss who did you think your messing my silly little one

Tell me I am sleeping and this is a dream
So I can go on loving as you would have me
I wont let my rival feel the joy I cant see it all so clear

I saw the flames feeding a poisonous strength
Worthy of fear

Say my brother I sing a thousand thanks for you
Say my lover what I see if you only knew
How do I look now what would you have me do
Say my lord you brought me the body of truth

3. The Mason

If I could know the way this ends
I'd then understand

I'll live what It is to be made from the best of you
Let my hands make movement for hearts of the tested few

If I could know the way
The way this ends
I'd then understand (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
I'd see the glory in these hands

I'm placing stone upon stone but this castle Is falling faster than my hands
They're gained the west wall fall back to the stabies
Prepare for the last stand

I end here you start now
Like iron sharpens iron I will make you better you will make me
My best like sea salt to my skin without you
I am but a tasteless man

If I could know the way
The way this ends I'd then understand (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
I'd see the glory in these hands

This is end this is end
This armor weighs but I will fight till I face the sky
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)

If I could know the way
The way this ends
I'd then understand (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
I'd see the glory in these

4. Oceans

[Instrumental]

5. The Shame In Shedding Wool

What wonderful strides with these legs
What a taste on these on lips
With these ears I hear a thousand sirens sing

Just a bit further
This skin It wears so well
With each step loosing wool
Be weary of the woods (no)
Be weary of the woods

This pasture is much too bright
I need to shield these eyes and make my way to the shade
Make a line for the trees

The only sing
To burn the forest down burn It down

Come one come all and bring what you've been fleeting from (come home come home)
Come as you are and know you are loved
We wait with grace while you flee the sun

I heard the sheep cry out like wolves

Bring me to heard
I've been cold wandering alone leave me alone

Come one come all and bring what you've been fleeting from (come home come home)
Come as you are and know you are loved
We wait with grace while you flee the sun
We wait with grace as you flee the sun
Spoonagain gotcha

Come home come home come home my love

I heard the sirens cry
When their voice fell on deaf ears
While sheep they sang as one hallelujah

6. Sly Foxes

We watch the waters rise
And let the tides come up to our neck

With pride taking on the ways (on the ways)
Screaming over and over again
I never lie I swear I can swim
I never lie there I go again

What have we become I feel like we have just begun
Focus I want you at your
Focus I want you at your best
I swear I'll never let go
Focus I want you at your
Focus I want you at your best

Oh we are so smooth
The way you speak the way I move
Seek all you want you'll never catch me
Jesting the hare consuming the feast
Seek all you want you'll never catch me
Jesting the hare

I will shake the earth
Oh we are sly sly foxes
This love will find us where we hide
This love will find us where we hide (we hide)
This love will find us where we hide (we hide)
Focus I want you at your best

What have we become I feel like we have just begun
Focus I want you at your
Focus I want you at your best
I swear I'll never let go
Focus I want you at your
Focus I want you at your best

Hold on be strong stay steadfast you are your fathers son
Be still for the lion and lamb will lay as one

What have we become I feel like we have just begun
Focus I want you at your
Focus I want you at your best
I swear I'll never let go
Focus I want you at your
Focus I want you at your best

7. Isadora Duncan

Oh Isadora how beautifully misunderstood
Is that what kept you moving moving
So ahead of you time but so far behind from where
You should be heading

Settle you heart settle you heart

Lead me with your little strong hands
I'll follow you to the of the world (you could be better than)
To end of the would where ever you wish If only you would let me
If only you would let me catch my breath (we could be better than this)

Rest your head and your weary eyes when we continue
We could be something so much more
What sort of view is my heart from a rearview mirror
What sort of view are you searching for

Oh Isadora
Surely you have just reason to run
What have you done
What is the cause

You could be so free
Reat your head and your weary eyes when we continue
We could be something so much more
What sort of view is my heart from a rearview mirror
What sort of view were you searching for

Oh Isadora rest your weary heart settle your soles
Know that where ever you are where ever you run
You're not alone

[Jes vas a l'amor]

Oh Isadora, oh Isadora
(You could be so free)
Oh Isadora
(You could be so free)
Oh Isadora
(You could be so free)
Oh Isadora

8. OneOneThousand

You choose you choose to run than see the truth be revealed
Climb the tallest tree get the furthest view
Yet be sightless in a world made for your eyes

I thought I knew I swore I knew
But sour milk and honey is not the taste of you
So I stare straight into the sun
With fists clenched waiting to take flight

This body is so heavy this body is so heavy
So I stand with blistered feet and bleeding knees
Because here nothing can touch me

I'd rather dive then know what I would be without
Rather hold the line at fear be still and know
That with one voice we'll sing together together

Glory like the bee with out her queen (be still and know)
What am I with out my king (be still and know)

You choose you choose to run than see the truth be revealed
Climb the tallest tree and get the furthest view
Yet be sightless in a world made for your eyes

How alluring are the legs of the fall
But hold the line I'll hold the line

9. Modern Gentleman

I saw the best on worst of everything
I dreamed I could be for you watched the sky
Be made for us I waited on the night
How numb was I how numb was I

I spoke of what we could of been
You said we were meant for this is where I need you to dream
Be fearless your courage will see this through
Don't be scared I need you to keep dreaming have hope for me

We spoke as children when placed on the streets
Then claimed the mind of giants when under the sheets
Yet he waits for us

I spoke of what we could of been
You said we were meant for this is where I need you to dream
Be fearless your courage will see this through
Don't be scared I need you to keep dreaming have hope for me

And I will find myself a proper hat will compromise Idol
And you you will find yourself a modern (and he will challenge the martyr)

I spoke of what we could of been you said we
Were meant for this is where I need you

I spoke of what we could of been you said we were meant for this is where I need you

I spoke of what we could of been
You said we were meant for this is where I need you to dream
Be fearless your courage will see this through
Don't be scared I need you to keep dreaming have hope for me
Don't be scared don't be scared to you keep dreaming

The child's gone now the father waits
For the legs of man to meet is may gone

10. My Forfeit

Oh I oh I
I'll sing to you I'll sing to you
What will age you young doe
Oh I oh I
I'll sing to you I'll sing you home
What will wise us

I'll go through this after you wake then begin again when you fall asleep
There's still light where you are and you my dear were not made to waste away
I saw the storm reach from the sky to the ground
As dark as the day was bright
I can't go into this alone

My body will fall before I let you down
I know all about your weeping heart

Oh I oh I
I'll sing to you I'll sing to you
What will age you young doe
Oh I oh I
I'll sing to you I'll sing you home
What will wise us

When I am weathered and beaten, should I fall?
And I'll bow myself before your heart

My body will fall before I let you down
I'll make you proud before I love again
Oh I oh I
I'll sing to you I'll sing to you
What will age you young doe
Oh I oh I
I'll sing to you I'll sing you home
What will wise us

How shameful we've become left a child to untie sailor knots and eye the cresting rocks
(Am I the one to choose)
How shameful we've become if we overlook the captain's cries we'll never kiss the shore
(This isn't what I choose)

My body will fall before I let you down
I know all about your weeping heart
My body will fall before I let you down
I'll make you proud before I love again
(And how shameful we've become)

My body will fall before I let you down
I know all about your weeping heart (and how shameful we've become)
My body will fall before I let you down (and how shameful we've become)
I'll make you proud before I love again (and how shameful we've become)
