(We Are) Sunflowers

It’s been a long, long time since we saw the sun
You’re worn and tired but you’re holding on
‘Cause we need reward for the time we’ve done
So we turn our heads and face to the sun
The blossom’s out but you’re getting scared
Starting to fear nobody cares
‘Cause we need reward for the time we’ve done
When we’re on the lowest rung and we’re not the number one
We still all know when to turn our heads to the sun
It’s been a long, long time, but the sun’s out now
Gonna make the most of it anyhow
‘Cause we are the day undone and we owe to everyone
Our reward just never comes for all the time we’ve done
When we’re on the lowest rung and we’re never number one, yeah
Well, we all know when to turn our heads to the sun
When we hate the things we’ve done and don’t see the good to come
We still all know when to turn and face to the sun

Thing Of Beauty

Thing of beauty, thing of grace
Thing of wonder light up this darkened place
Give us meaning, show the way
Lift the shadows that creep into the day
Where we wake to find we’re left behind
And we see
Everything’s filled with love
And that’s all we need
Thing of beauty, thing of truth
Thing of mystery that doesn’t have to prove
Where it’s going, where it’s been
A thing of wonder like everything unseen
Where we wake to find we left in time
And it’s true
Everything’s filled with love
‘Cause you’re with me too
I don’t know how I feel about it
I don’t know if I should
I don’t know what it means to be good
I just know I’m with you as we look into space
And see your beauty, truth and grace
Everything’s filled with love…

When you hold me tight I can hardly breathe
‘Cause you crush the life right out of me
So I hold you back until you can hardly breathe
Is this love we feel or mutual need?
I say what will hurt you
I say what’ll cause you harm
We know the buttons
Oh, we know the buttons
And we keep hitting the mark
Who knew it’d be easy?
Who knew it’d be so easy?
Still I can’t understand why we’re doing it to ourselves
When you hold me tight I can hardly breathe
‘Cause you crush the life right out of me
So I hold you back until you can hardly breathe
Is this love we feel or mutual need?
We’re down in the gutter
Looking for dirt, looking for skeletons
We know the secrets
Oh, we know the secrets
And we know how to use ‘em
But what’s making us do it?
What the hell’s making us do it?
‘Cause I can’t understand how I’m gonna get by when you’re gone
When you hold me tight I can hardly breathe
‘Cause you crush the life right out of me
So I hold you back until you can hardly breathe
Is this love we feel or mutual need?
So come on and hold me tight so I can hardly breathe
Go on and squeeze the life right out of me
Oh, and I’ll hold you back until you just suffocate
Is this love we feel? Is this love we feel?
Oh, this is love we feel!

Love The Ride

When you’re alone now, baby
Do you fear you might hurt yourself
To get at the feelings you don’t need?
As the veil of the darkness tightens
Bringing you to your knees
And the future is everything you fear
You should know
That the wonder of you’s inside
You must learn to love the ride
You got the bluest summer skies
You can lose yourself inside
And there’s nothing here on Earth
You should fear
If you know your worth
It’s never the destination
It’s the journey itself that counts
To savour each moment that you find
Along the way
And the wonder of you’s inside
You must learn to love the ride
With the bluest summer skies
Such a shame to run and hide
‘Cause there’s nothing here on Earth
You should fear
If you know what you’re worth
Just look at the wondrous mountains
Take in the morning air
Get ready you never know what’s next –
And that’s the best!
‘Cause the wonder of you’s inside
You must learn to love the ride
You got the bluest summer skies
You can lose yourself inside
And there’s nothing here on Earth
You should fear
If you know that the wonder of you’s inside
And you learn to love the ride
Got the bluest summer skies
You can lose yourself inside
And there’s nothing here on Earth
Left to fear
If you know that the wonder of you’s inside
And you learn to love the ride
Got the bluest summer skies
You can lose yourself inside
And there’s nothing here on Earth
You should fear
If you know what you're worth
