Heart On Fire (Acoustic) 01:29
lyrics
Oh-oh-oh-oh Heart on fire I walk into a future
So far removed From all that I’ve once known Oh, how much now I don’t know

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Soul on fire
2.
Restless (Acoustic) 03:38
lyrics
Restless soul 
Be still 

Bursting at the seams
 One piece in the machine
 Frantic you work 
 But feel lost in the blur
 All you need to be
 Is breathing and beating 
Away from the noise 
You’ll know who you are

 But you won't wait 
In the quiet spaces to see Chorus 

Always Days they just repeat, the Days they just repeat, but Wait now Can you still believe it Can you still believe Your heart, your dream You’re remarkable So where did the fire go Your heart, your dream You’re remarkable So young to be so old No time to slow down There’s just too much to lose But the more you race The more you’re alone Trade isolation For a rich solitude To be still and know How little you know If you will wait In the quiet spaces, you’ll see Your truest self And the world You can make Chorus You have a gift to show So escape Now it’s time to run Away To the safety of Silence Now it’s time to just Wait Restless soul Be still

Taken (Acoustic) 03:52
lyrics
Such cowardice I am capable of
 Inside me lies a runaway lover
 What darkness drives me ever inward
 Within me lives a prodigal father 

Stay, Why do I always choose to run
 Stay, Or only hide behind my armor
 Stay, 
To know a brave surrender
 Why do I choose to run
 In the longings of your heart
 Like armies marching
 In the longings of your heart 
Let me be taken 

Whether with sword, flattering word, or kiss
 Still all men kill the thing they love 
But I am captain of my conscience
 Teach me to die, to resurrect all that was once pure

 Chorus
 Let me be taken 

Captive
 By beauty and by innocence
 So I can learn how to fight, how to fight for
 Hope

A Sweet Economy (Acoustic) 03:33
lyrics
Skipped the taxicab To walk this night Along the city street Through the alley And your threadbare world, Surprised to glimpse a smile Grateful I'm not there in your shoes But should I be You were there dancing In the glow of the streetlights And the trashcan fires I see in you More than I've built Oh-oh-oh-oh Crumbling satisfaction Or greed Take me all the Way down To such a sweet economy Oh-oh-oh-oh Joy There's just enough Enough for each of us Traced the horrors Of your war-torn world Across my TV screen Imagine my shock To watch the laughter Now lighting your bright young eyes Could my heart live Where you are What audacity! You were there singing In the shadow of gunfire And dark desire Chorus I'll stay here Beside you til it comes clear Contentment is a flame Burning brighter Burning brighter The blacker the night I see in you More than I've built With every tower of Crumbling satisfaction Or greed Take me all the Way down To such a sweet economy When it comes to joy There's just enough Enough for each of us
5.
Tomorrows (Acoustic) 04:30
lyrics
I'm thankful now for every tear For every scream of health Breath and breath filling the lungs As you embark upon yourself Meanwhile I'm such an unlikely Suspect for a hero In the story that's unfolding Terrified that you need me Yet I move with strange propulsion My body anxious and aware Heart and hands somehow in motion Steady and prepared In the dark tomorrows That choice and chance will bring I will hold to hope, it won't choke The more tightly that I cling The fall and rise My fears by night I'm seeing what I can't stop Then seeing you stops me The fall and rise Your chest by mine I believe that you and life are Good As we reach this sudden precipice Where chance and faith diverge Faith must rest on evidence, Repel blind fears as they emerge, And leap to see Hope upon hope Within the human heart That will endure beyond its beats Chorus So good to hold your hand in mine To feel the warmth of your tiny fingertips So good to know that life can thrive Bursting forth from the barren ground
6.
Clever Spies (Acoustic) 04:59
lyrics
All we have known Feels fragile Harsh lines and cold Efficiency We were clever spies within the silence We'd infiltrate the night with light and vibrant melodies Singing only shadows now of true songs We'll search the dark for sparks of something true As we embark On uncharted depths With both doubt and bold Expectancy We'll sing Like its our last song Sing into this brave unknown We were clever spies within the silence The silence where we'd Infiltrate the night with light and vibrant With vibrant melodies Singing only shadows of the true songs Ignite the dark with sparks of all that's true All that's true
7.
Equations (Acoustic) 04:20
lyrics
Take my measurements and try my best To piece together all the scattered musings All of my sure instruments attest No solutions for equations of love Splendid uncertainty My mind perfectly at ease to say I don't know I don't know As I grow more and more immersed in you My heart evolves, my world dissolves to less and less Well-mixed within your own until I can't tell Where it is that you begin and where I end Chorus
