my past is a country
i'm a refugee
tumbling down the frame
of my family tree
one branch leads
to who I might be
i'm waiting
for my moment to come
seems like each day
i've got more to chose
but every path i take
it just splits in two's
each makes an offer
that i can't refuse
i'm waiting
for my moment to come
hey
we're all a little older
than we were
hey
no one said it would be easy
that's for sure
i'm waiting
for my moment to come
stumbling through the dark
where we've all been
the world's a coffee table
and we're all bruised shins
my course is a map
marked with a thousand pins
i'm waiting
for my moment to come
hey
we're all a little older
than we were
hey
no one said it would be easy
that's for sure
i'm waiting
for my moment to come
it's fitting we balance
on the edge of a knife
cause it seems that life
is nothing more than little fights
we all want the mountain
but we hate to climb
we're waiting
for our moment to come
hey
we're all a little older
than we were
hey
no one said it would be easy
that's for sure
i'm waiting
for my moment to come

Faith

the chair was pulled
from under me
every time i fall
its harder to believe
that what's gone
was supposed to be
you threw it
all away
soon the dust
it settles in
we become
like tenants under roof's so thin
doors closed
locked from within
afraid of
the light of day
the sparkle's gone
and it wont come back
and i'm searching for flowers
in the sidewalk cracks
every block's another
broken back
show a little faith
when love was new
i never thought
it would look like this
with the wrapping off
my heart is calloused
where it once was soft
show a little faith
on the outside
looking in
you leaned on the glass
and you shattered it
you know better
than to touch it again
show a little faith
love is fire
and memories earned
the embers remind you
of ones youve burned
and every rock
you left unturned
show a little faith
the sparkle's gone
and it wont come back
and i'm searching for flowers
in the sidewalk cracks
every block's another
broken back
show a little faith
when love was new
i never thought
it would look like this
with the wrapping off
my heart is calloused
where it once was soft
show a little faith
so i doubt this
heart of mine
but every bottle
always finds its wine
the sweetest things
take a little time
show a little faith
the sparkle's gone
and it wont come back
and i'm searching for flowers
in the sidewalk cracks
every block's another
broken back
show a little faith
when love was new
i never thought
it would look like this
with the wrapping off
my heart is calloused
where it once was soft
show a little faith
