I'd Rather Forgive

woah
walk down the road holdin your hand
really, i'm holdin my own
all those horrible things i said in the past
were only the things i can't stand to look at in myself
wouldn't you rather exist on a happiness plane?
i know i'd rather forgive than keep on complainin.
whoa
you may be alarmed when you see her
stopping mid-stride in the street
just to look at the ground and whisper a song
i owe her some silent but genuine comfort from madness
wouldn't you rather exist on a happiness plane?
i know i'd rather forgive than keep on complainin
i hope when i leave
you'll watch behind me for all the beautiful opportunities to join with
all the people who happen to remain
at the same time on this plane
oh, woah, whoa
wouldn't you rather exist on a happiness plane?
i know i'd rather forgive than keep on complainin

Let Myself Fall

you reminded me what it is to really love
last time they found me dressed in blood
now i heave a sigh
again i feel so high with love in my life
drifting through the world now that i'm open
i allow myself to slide when i think about your eyes
i watch you rise
and i let myself fall
i wonder how you live this way at ease
you place each step so carefully
and i, i can tell - ooo
i can tell by the mess and the smell on your breath that you're a wreck
but every time you fill this hole inside me
you become divine and i pray that i survive
i watch you rise
and i let myself fall
i'll give everything i have to lift you up
but to come into our own regardless we need happiness inside us
i'm just sinkin down below as i
watch you rise
and i let myself fall

Hard On Yourself

don't be so hard on yourself, baby girl
look where you were last year, sights ahead
you were on the up and now you're on top
so don't be hard and tough
shaded by sadness
from many attempts at joy
you keep lookin on the outside
for lovers to teach you what to change
but who ever told you to change?
is it your own voice that's drivin you insane?
insanity just proves that you're a creature
all wrapped up in a modern world
so don't be so hard on yourself, baby girl
look where you were last year, sights ahead
you were on the up and now you're on top
so don't be so hard and tough

There Will Come A Day

lately i've been comin out on the other side of the darkness
i looked and i looked for someone to drag me out
and lately it's only by my own means of crawlin' outside of the darkness inside me
i'm able to meet with the folks who have already crawled out of their own holes
there will come a day when i feel that i have arrived
or maybe the thing that i want is sturdy and sustained peace of mind
but know that there was a day when i thought you had capacity
beyond me and a sadness i'd never before ever seen in this world before
and that kind of upset i just hoped that i'd never have to endure again
cuz when i saw it in you i thought, "wow, there must be somethin wrong with him."
but there's something that's wrong with the two of us and it is not in us alone
oh it's something most people will spend all their lives trying to run from
know that i am so grateful to know that i felt so sad and alone before
but i know that i don't wanna feel so sad and alone anymore
for until we stop runnin from what we think about when we are all alone
we'll just get caught up together in darkness and think we're returnin home
there will come a day when i feel that i have arrived
or maybe the thing that i want is a sturdy and sustained peace of mind
