Fast As FireIf I Cry
I've got a feeling
You’re slipping through my hands
I gotta know, I gotta know
If it's true
I can't stop this feeling
I'm losing you again
I gotta know, I gotta know
What to do
And if I cry
It's me that's breaking down
I can't escape the fact I'm missing you
And if I cry
You're gonna say I sound like
Every other woman that you knew
One day you wake up
There's no place left to start
You can't explain, you can't explain
The things you do
These walls you build up
So high around your heart
Keep me outside, keep me outside
I can't get through
And if I cry
It's me that's breaking down
I can't escape the fact I’m missing you
And if I cry
You're gonna say I sound like
Every other woman that you knew

Track 2
Fast As FireStop Crying
Love, well I swear you heard my name
I swear you felt my blood
Rushing through your veins
Love, well I know you had to run
To go and find yourself
In all your dreams undone
Time, well I know you know my face
I know you took a child
And left me in her place
Time, well I wish you would not go
Stay and walk with me
Further down this road
All around you now
Encircled by a shroud
Stop crying
Of all the things you doubt
What love can’t live without
Stop crying
Love, well I swear you know my name
I swear you felt my blood
Rushing through your veins
Love, well I know you had to run
To go and find yourself
In all your dreams undone
All around you now
Encircled by a shroud
Stop crying
Of all the things you doubt
What love can’t live without
Stop crying

Track 3
Fast As FireI'll Be Alright
Wake me up tomorrow
Shake me from my path of sorrow
Where are all my sweet dreams?
No one owes you anything
And I'll be alright
I’ll be alright
Take me for a fast ride
Down your highway, late at night
I'm turning off my headlights
I don't want to see the exit signs
And I'll be alright
I'll be alright
Break me down, it's no good
Try to turn me into who you would
But I'll be here, just hidden
I'll live my life out, unforgiven
And I'll be alright
I'll be alright

Track 4
Fast As FireWords Without Sound
I'm taking my time with you, baby
I'm taking my time with you now
I'm crossing that line with you, baby
Into a valley, and down
Yours is a world of forgiveness
Mine is a world of fools
Both of our worlds have their limits
And both of our worlds have their truths
Hold on tight, don't you know it'll be alright?
Hold on tight, don't you know it'll be alright?
I'm taking my time with you, baby
I'm giving up words that have sound
If you look in my eyes for it, maybe
You'll come into this valley and down
Hold on tight, don't you know it'll be alright?
Hold on tight, don't you know it'll be alright?

Track 5
Fast As FireShame
Shame on me
Have I gotten in too deep?
Shame on me
Now you see that I am weak
Like a body, chilled to the bone
I could feel you - cold as a stone
Like a heartache, left all alone
I could steal you, and take you home
And you'd be
Sitting by the back door
Waiting for an answer
Nobody here would know what you're after
Nobody here would know what you were after
Shame on you
Have you lost your sense of pride?
Shame on you
Now you're holding on too tight
Like a landslide coming down on me
I was burried in what this used to be
Like a high tide coming up on me
I was carried far out to sea
And you'd be
Sitting by the back door
Waiting for an answer
Nobody here would know what you're after
Shame on me
Have I gotten in too deep?
Shame on me
Now you see that I am weak

Track 6
Fast As FireOut of the Darkness
Out of the darkness
You take a deep breath and you run
Cuz' you were turned from a near miss
Now you're fearless and unsung
Out on your own now
I see you learned how it's done
Cuz' it burns like a sweet kiss
Like a near miss, when it comes
I fear I'm falling down
I fear I'm falling down
I fear I'm falling down
I fear I'm falling down
Up in the sky now
I see you've learned how to fly
And you turn in a spiral
On a high roll of your life
I fear I'm falling down
I fear I'm falling down
I fear I'm falling down
I fear I'm falling down
Out of the darkness
You take a deep breath and you run

Track 7
Fast As FireTrue Love Romeo
Ain’t no message I've been saving
Ain't no dark door to my soul
Ain’t no crucifix I been waving
You are my true-love romeo
No winding road I won't travel
No midnight train I won't ride
No river, cold, I won't paddle
To have my true love by my side
And if you close your eyes
You'll be safe inside
If you close your eyes
You'll be safe inside
No heart of truth will I bury
No broken arrow I hold
No deeper love will I carry
Than my true-love romeo
And if you close your eyes
You'll be safe inside
If you close your eyes
You'll be safe inside
No heart of truth will I bury
No broken arrow I hold

Track 8
Fast As FireAngels in the Doorway
There's nothing but the light
Coming through the doorway
With angels out of sight
Now they wander your way
All along the street
News was fast as fire
Words as hot as heat
Are burning down the choir
I was alive
I was fed by the fire
I was alive
I was hungry and tired
I was alive
I was never a child
I was alive
Restless and wild
Tempted by the things
All of us desire
Tied down by the strings
To reach for something higher
My angel folds her wings
Quiet as the dawn
Slipping through the doorway
And suddenly she's gone
I was alive
I was fed by the fire
I was alive
I was hungry and tired
I was alive
I was never a child
I was alive
Restless and wild

Track 9
Fast As FireEden
It's been a long drive down to Eden
With all the miles in between
I don't know who I've been deceiving
More than me
I tasted fruit that was forbidden
'Til the truth was hard to see
And all along my heart was hidden
Unto me
Don't wake me up, I'm barely asleep
This sweetest dream is all that I keep
Don't wake me up, I want this to be
It's been a long drive down to Eden
I don't want to head back home
And if you ask me not to leave here
I would not go
I don't want to ask forgiveness
For these thoughts inside my head
I only wanted to relive it
Once again

Track 10
Fast As FireSuitcase Soul
Down the road, you could see her
In the distance with her suitcase soul
She was hard to know, and
Harder to escape once she took a hold
You can’t say whatever happened to her
On that bright, spring day
When she walked away, she
Took a part of you and she left that space
And nobody's seen her in years
Nobody misses her tears
It's just another night
I hope the moon is her light
For her suitcase soul
Often times, you start to think about her
And you don’t know why
So you close your eyes, and you
Wish you had her back in your arms tonight
Call love cruel this time, 'cuz
She's the kind of girl that you cannot find
When she’s haunting you
She settles in your heart
And puts a hole right through
And nobody's seen her in years
Nobody misses her tears
It's just another night
I hope the moon is her light
For her suitcase soul

Fast As FireDown We Go
Down we go, soft and slow
Into the shadows of the night
Stay with me, baby, please
Into the shadows of the night
What's it gonna be,
What's it gonna be, baby?
Where you gonna go,
Where you gonna go tonight?
Who you gonna see?
Who you gonna see, baby?
Well alright, alright
All I am, all I know
I am slowly letting go
Stand by me, through this sea
Into the hollow of my life
What's it gonna be,
What's it gonna be, baby?
Where you gonna go,
Where you gonna go tonight?
Who you gonna see?
Who you gonna see, baby?
Well alright, alright

Track 12
Fast As FireTalk Like A Savior
Sometimes a minute feels much too long
Sometimes my faith is less than strong
Won't you hold me in your loving arms
Keep me safe from the world
When things go wrong
Cuz' you talk like a savior
So come save me
Cuz' I'm all out of favors
And I don’t quite believe
If you wanted to reach me
Reach me, please
Lately the words just don't come
Lately I wonder what I've done
Won't you hold me 'til the rising sun
Keep me safe when the world
Comes undone
Cuz' you talk like a savior
So come save me
Cuz' I'm all out of favors
And I don’t quite believe
If you wanted to reach me
Reach me, please

Track 13
Fast As FireAngel
You said you were an angel
You took away my soul
Well, if I knew any better
I guess I should let you go
So now I walk a little slower
But I still know when to run
But if you came right up to me
Well I know I'd still let you come
Yes I know I'd still let you come
Oh angel, love, won't you come to me
When I feel like I am bleeding
Oh angel, love, won't you come to me
I'm not running now, no I'm not leaving
Well I believe you are an angel
You gave me wings of gold
And if I think you are special
Well I guess I should tell you so
And I believe you have an answer
But you just won't let it go
And yes I think you are special
Well I guess you already know
Yes I guess you already know
Oh angel, love, won't you come to me
When I feel like I am bleeding
Oh angel, love, won't you come to me
I'm not running now, no I'm not leaving

Track 14
Fast As FireFollow Or Run
I will not walk down your dark, dusty road
I will not wander your way
You will not tempt me with visions of gold
Cuz' I’m aware of the price you pay
I will not weaken your enemies heart
I will not dance to your drum
Will not reach out for your hand in the dark
Cuz' I have seen all of the things they have done
And you say, follow or run, child
Follow or run
Follow or run, child
Follow or run...run...run
My brother has no place of his own
You stole the light from his eyes
And my sister has no dreams she can hold
You took them all when she was only a child
My mother lives with anger, I know
You tried to steal away her pride
And my father lives in a world all alone
With a bottle for a bride
And you say, follow or run, child
Follow or run
Follow or run, child
Follow or run...run...run

Track 15
Fast As FireIf You Only Knew
I try to tell you that it's the end
Until I look in your eyes
This starting over is happening again
And I don't know if we should try
Cuz' it's more than two people can do
To save these tears we've cried
And if holding on were up to you
You'd keep these chains on tight
If you only knew
It'd all be clear to you
If you only knew my heart
If you only knew
These things you think are true
If you only knew my heart
There's only one way through this door
And your heart's safe inside
Explain to me what we're doing this for
I only want to know why
Cuz' it's more than two people can do
To keep the fire bright
If holding on were mine to choose
I'd keep this love alive
If you only knew
It'd all be clear to you
If you only knew my heart
If you only knew
These things you think are true
If you only knew my heart
