I went walking down the highway, past the house we called our home. Always knew we'd get there someday, but never alone. You held my callused hands and kissed these cursing lips then like the angel that you were promised I'd remember this, time you've got me smiling, cause I just got the news that I am dying. I'll see you soon. And I went walking down the highway, and saw your cross on the side of the road, always knew we'd get there someday, but not so soon. Hold me close until the night is done my friend we'll be together 'till the end.

We both fell for lust, and called it love. Broke ourselves, and pretended it was enough. So don't feed me lies because i've been well fed, dying from growing pains over the things I never said. Cause I know, and you know, that we are different. Sewn apart at different seams, though we're both chasing our dreams. And I've got some scars, but God knows you do too. And if I had the words, I would speak of grace to you. So we could have a ball, and learn to dance for tonight, and maybe in the morning we would finally be alright. So when the devil comes knocking on my door, and all my demons scream my name we can face the troubles hand in hand, singing there's power in the name.

The wise old man counts his diamond rings, for all the rust they're worth. His weathered skin storms to ashes, as this phoenix is re-birthed. And he is not broken, the way they make it seem. And all his teeth turn to black, a lost love that he can't get back. he's going on a century, and whispers out "you're still a part of me" and he is my hero the man of rags and philosophy and he may not leave me with wealth but his love is worth all of the money waiting on yesterday but it's not coming waiting on a train to take me away but as i see it i start running

Confidence 03:36
He said sir, you'll find your gold at the river bed it's a great place to be baptised a great day to be baptised and I said sir, i'm a god fearing man, he said I wouldn't have known it, I guess that you forgot to show it. If you held your cross on your back, i don't think that your head would be so high. And I've never been one for confessions to a man, but i need this guitar, it speaks words that I could never say. and the towers of men, have been known to fall. That's why heights were made so beautiful, the temptation of man.

The Voyage 02:58
Growin' up in a small town, i met my share of runaways. won battles and lost wars, but learned three ways to spell family. So let's go to a place i call home, let's go to where nobody knows my name. I guess half the things i didn't say, are the exact same things, that i would take back if I could. So let's go to where grace and forgiveness find the many. Cause if all these songs are is words, then these guitars have no meaning.

Are you telling me that David, never learned to sin like you and I. Are you telling me that all these wrongs can be erased by Alberta skies. Cause Calgary never seemed so far, and these hands have never been so clean. Are you telling me that David, was a perfect ruling king, that he never fell in love, and that he never told us anything Cause calgary never seemed so far, as it did when we were happy. So hold your watches in your hand, and let's pretend time can't stand still. I don't know, what went wrong but I know I'm getting better
