Coffee Spoons

I wonder what would happen if I
If I colored outside of the lines
I wonder what the world would be like
If I tried living outside of time
I wonder how different things would be
If just for one day I stepped outside of me
I wish that I knew now what I new when I was younger
Listen up now, boys and girls
How long will we
Measure our lives out in coffee spoons?
We say we want to change the world but only
From the comfort of our living room
I wonder what would happen to me
If I said 2+2=3
I wonder how much I would see
If I tried loving my enemies
I wonder how different things would be
If just for one day I stepped outside of me...
Sometimes I wish I could turn back the clock
To my childish ways
We work so hard
We forgot how to play

Naked

Standing in between the apple and the evergreen
You know I didn't mean to fall so hard
He opened up my eyes, but somehow I still lost my sight
And all that I can see are scars, and now
We don't even know we're naked anymore
Standing in between the apple and the evergreen
You know I didn't mean to fall so hard
Suddenly my skin felt so alive, but everything inside me died
And you and I, we fell apart, and now
We don't even know we're naked anymore
I keep trying to trace how we got to this place
But it's gone from my memory
Now instead I am lying in bed
With my worst enemy
And we don't even know we're naked anymore...

Black Sheep

You and me, we crossed paths for a reason
Even if it was only for a season
You taught me, and I taught you to
See the world with a different view
You knew who you wanted to be
But you didn't know who you were
You knew who you wanted to be
But you didn't know who you were
They called you the black sheep
But I know your shepherd too, and he takes care of you
Two indigo children walking side by side
Our life's a vacation and we're here for the ride
The talking heads can take our rights but
We've already won this fight
We know who they want us to be
But we found out who we are
We know who they want us to be
But we found out who we are
They call us the black sheep
But we have a shepherd too, and we're gonna meet him soon...
But I know your shepherd too, and he takes care of you

Can't get enough
Of your sweet disposition
Being with you is just
Like a little piece of heaven
A peanut in a pumpkin patch
Changing every day
We love you to the moon and back forever and always
The first time we heard the sound of your heart,
We couldn't wait to hold you in our arms
The first time we ever saw those baby blues,
We couldn't take our eyes off of you
We all want these moments to last
But you're growing up so fast...
First kiss before you're even one year old
Gonna be a ladies' man
Melting hearts just like you melted ours
Even more than we could have ever planned for...
Don't cry little one
Even when the water's cold
For the Lord will be with you
Wherever you go

The Fight

I want you to know
I didn't mean
To throw out that word that made you think you had failed me
I want you to know
Despite what it seems
I am so proud of you and who you're becoming
You have a beautiful soul...
I want you to know
That you don't have to be afraid
To tell me when you make a mistake
I want you to know
I'm on your team
We are in this together, whatever that means
You have a beautiful soul...
They say the path to hell is paved with good intentions
But your will is stronger than the nature we were born into
And in my eyes, we occupy a new dimension
Where those little sayings don't apply to me and you
You have a beautiful soul...
