Matthew Perryman Jones

Sinking wishes in the water I've thrown them out Fumbling to the floor to wait What follows now Let it go Only wishes wait I'm taking a chance to find what's real inside I'm taking a chance this time On you I've got nothing to loose Climbing onto gia

It's not what it's meant to be All of the longing and the distance in between Oh I want you Living inside a dream Is there an ending Cause I can barely breathe Oh I want you Here with me Someday The story comes true And while I wait I'm reaching out

Your breakdown was easy to see And it took you away, further from me Sifting through mishaps and photographs I think of you, much more than I should More than I should And I'm falling down Like it's holy ground I'm looking for you again I'm looking f

If there was a chance That we could be lovers I'd write you a book Of handwritten letters And burn them all up to the end Just to start over again If there was a chance That we could be lovers I'd learn how to dance And to hold without touching Oh lo

the angels were singing - matthew perryman jones Talking to stone, Listening to birds With no more to say, I kissed my fingers And touched the red dirt Wandering away Through the moon-colored field My heart was a weight Of rage and sorrow That longed

stones from the riverbed - mattew perryman jones Silently tracing the cracks Through the chaos Grieving what cannot come back What's gone away Feeling the weight Of sorrow's night You can't find your way through the black So you pray for light Everyo

I've said enough The writing's on the wall A broken cup Missing pieces from the fall All the cradled desire Cold, starved roving eyes As I wander in silent alibis (Carry on) Is it your ghost That keeps hiding under the smoke It's getting louder I fee

Caught in a wildfire Choking on the flames Of a strange pyre The ashes of a dream Feed the fantasy Locked on the inside Tangled up in chains And the crazy lies Terrified and lame In silence we escape [Chorus:] Oh, kiss my heart awake We're so far awa

How can I forget you Memories come and go You're all I've ever wanted You're all I've ever known Can I be happy Living with your ghost The pictures tell the story I took them off the wall It's hard enough to get through I still can feel the fall Do y

I wanna rock-n-roll I wanna give my soul I'm wanting to belielve I'm not too old Don't want to make it up Don't want to let you down I want to fly away But I'm stuck on the ground -chorus- So, help me decide Help me to make up Make up my mind Wouldn'

Look me in the eyes Tell me you don't feel a thing Look me in the eyes Tell me you don't feel a thing I'm laying out my heart and giving you everything If it all goes wrong are you just gonna walk away If it all goes wrong are you just gonna walk awa

Into the land of the living Black bleeds orange into blue Light is breaking through I can hear the bells in the city Across the ancient shore I am ready to fight Let down the scarlet cord It's time to shed this masquerade [Chorus:] You cannot love in

Another train has left the station And I'm just standing here If I go now would you remember Would you still hold me dear Chorus Waiting for love to intervene Save me Cause I don't want to leave Stuck inbetween, caught in the middle Where it wasn't e

Sad like a melody sung by a symphony striking a chord. Standing here looking blind, stumble around to find my way thru your door. Do you wanna know why? Do you wanna know why? Hungry as starving fire killing to feed desire. What do you do? We're born

So many ways to find a lonely lover They're the first ones to confess Stuck between the honest day And the secrets in your chest I swear you're dancing with The fallen angels in the dark Every step will get Your heart beating faster Isn't that your f

I'm behind the wheel Cold and stoned The spirit is heavy And I just want to be alone I was born so free But a slave I'm bound I lost myself On a long way down [Chorus:] C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, let's fight I'm pushing up against the dark tonight I never

Something's in the air, empty as smoke that won't clear Lowly burn, filled up car where you disappear Secrets are a stain that mess up your mind That we love to play Take your time, waste your time While life slips away Oh, what do you want to hear?

Baby sleep in peace tonight Angels bend to watch the sight And may your dreams be sweet tonight Dance the sky in sweet delight And know I love you I always will It's my favorite story I have to tell And Baby, let's go far away See this world that God

Put your defense down open up your heart and lay all of it out I know how hard it sounds but loneliness will have it's way in feeding your doubts I'm waiting on the light waiting on the light to chance I'm chasing out the lies chasing out the lies th

Out of the Shadows-mathew perryman jones nickname:BATTLESTAR I cann't sleep in this room Still so far from finding you I cann't see to dig beneath These piles of dirt that cover me Don't let go, don't let go We can crawl out Out of the shadows Don't
