Run Away
Written by Kevin Wilson
Let’s run away, got to be somewhere better
I’ll write it down, leave ‘em a letter
We’ll run west on the interstate
Come on baby, don’t make me wait
I want to buy you a ticket to the mid-day sun
I want to fly you away so you don’t have to run
I want to swim in the ocean with you, you know
I want to take you everywhere you want to go
Run down the highway, race the train on the tracks
Burn down the bridges, there’s no going back
Feet on the dash, feel the heat through the glass
I reach across and brush your hair back
I want to buy you a ticket to the mid-day sun
I want to fly you away so you don’t have to run
I want to swim in the ocean with you, you know
I want to take you everywhere you want to go
I want to go
With you, you know
Let’s detour left and head down south
Make a stop in some border town
We’ll drink margaritas all day long
The jukebox playin’ those tequila songs
I want to buy you a ticket to the mid-day sun
I want to fly you away so you don’t have to run
I want to swim in the ocean with you, you know
I want to take you everywhere you want to go
I want to go
With you, you know
Going To See You
Written by Kevin WilsonI don’t know where I’m gonna go but all I know is that I’m going to see you
I don’t care if it’s here or there but all I swear is that I’m going to see you
Baby please unlock the door
And turn the front light on
It may be late when I get to where you are
But baby I’m already gone
I don’t know if you feel the same but I’m counting days until I’m going to see you
All I know is that it feels so good just like I knew that it would when I’m going to see you
Baby please unlock the door
And turn the front light on
It may be late when I get to where you are
But baby I’m already gone
I’m on my way, I’ll be there today
Foot on the floor babe I’m driving fast
You and me, just the way it should be
We’ll find a way girl to make it last
Baby please unlock the door
And turn the front light on
It may be late when I get to where you are
But baby I’m already gone
I’m coming home
Where I want to be
I’m going to see you
All The Same
Written by Kevin WilsonThere was a death in New Orleans
Some saw it coming
That boy didn’t stand a chance when he tried to cross that street
Walkin’ hand in hand
Just takin’ another turn
Thinkin’ it was a thing but knocked clean off his feet
Sometimes we’re blind to the world around us
Except for the things that we want to see
Lovers and leavers, heartache and fun and all the deceivers
Can sometimes just end up to be…
All the same
It all started pretty
All kindness and funny
She’d take and give and give and take all the day and night
He held her with sweet caress
And listened to the whole damn mess
And talked her to sleep and tried to make it all alright
Sometimes we’re blind to the world around us
Except for the things that we want to see
Lovers and leavers, heartache and fun and all the deceivers
Can sometimes just end up to be…
All the same
In the end she couldn’t talk
Had no time for another walk
He had to beg her to even open up her eyes
The stare was pretty cold
And the story was then there told
The killing had begun in a very, very short time
Sometimes we’re blind to the world around us
Except for the things that we want to see yeah
Lovers and leavers and heartache and fun and all the deceivers
Can sometimes just end up to be…
Like a death in New Orleans
I Do It Anyway
Written by Kevin WilsonI see the rain come down
I feel it falling on my face
I pull away from every sound
Though I love the sound it makes
It reminds me of you
And all the things you say
Everything you do
Every single day
And I tell you I can’t love you
But I do it anyway
I don’t know where to run to
And I don’t know what to say
I’m scared of what may happen
I put distance in the way
I tell you I can’t love you
But I do it anyway
I hear the wind blow
And it calls out your name
Everywhere I go
It always seems the same
I can hear your voice
Then it starts to fade
I should have a choice
But it’s already made
And I tell you I can’t love you
But I do it anyway
I don’t know where to run to
And I don’t know what to say
I’m scared of what may happen
I put distance in the way
I tell you I can’t love you
But I do it anyway
Thieves Among Us
Written by Kevin WilsonWhat did you think I was gonna do with the story unfolding
What did you think I was gonna do when they left me holding
The trust
The truth
There are thieves here among us
Tryin’ to steal our souls
There are thieves here among us
What did you think I was gonna say to the words they told me
What did you think I was gonna say to the lies they sold me
The trust
The truth
There are thieves here among us
Tryin’ to steal our souls
There are thieves here among us
And it’s getting old
What did you think I was gonna feel from the battle around me
What did you think I was gonna feel from the words exploding
The trust
The truth
There are thieves here among us
Tryin’ to steal our souls
There are thieves here among us
And it’s getting old
Said It All
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierIf you’re looking for a letter
Or waiting on call
No need to stick around
It’s written on the wall
The words will lose their meaning
As they echo down the hall
It’s no use ‘cause we’ve said it all
There’s no reason I should leave here
Or reason I should stay
A little voice inside
Says be on your way
If this goes too long
We’ll both take the fall
It’s no use ‘cause we’ve said it all
It’s no use ‘cause we’ve said it all
Fly away
Time to fly away
Gonna leave today
There’s two sides to every story
Two ways to see the truth
Didn’t know it ‘til this was no longer new
Don’t make our memories bitter
Let’s keep the regrets small
We’ve already said it all
We’ve already said it all
We tried to follow through
There’s nothing we could do
Fly Away
Gonna leave today
We’ll see each other later
Somewhere down the line
And all the wounds we made
They will heal in time
I’m sure we will be better
We’ll be standing tall
‘Cause we may not have said it all
We may not have said it all
We may not have said it all
Private War
Written by Kevin WilsonSmoke on the horizon signals the end of the day
Pretty soon the dark of night will win over the light of day
I can only dream of what this battle has in store
It’s the next step in this private war
I’m laying down my armor
Throwing down my guns
I call a truce ‘cause there’s no place to run
I think I’m in a battle that I can’t win
I hang my head and pray for peace again
Throwing paper on the fire, it’s burning out of control
It’s murder and it’s killing my soul
I’m laying down my armor
Throwing down my guns
I call a truce ‘cause there’s no place to run
I sit down on the threshing floor
I bare my soul and a whole lot more
I bleed through these wounds they put in me
Ashes on the water will mark my final home
No more running, searching for my soul
Kings and Queens, angels and devils, lovers, haters all in a row
Was I a saint or sinner, I may never know
I’m laying down my armor
Throwing down my guns
I call a truce ‘cause there’s no place to run
Lonely
Written by Kevin WilsonMother do you still remember me
Father do you ever think of me
Sister would you like to speak to me
This lonely road seems so long
I’ve been gone from home so long
Can’t seem to make it on my own
Lonely days and lonely nights
This way of living seems so wrong
Brother will you protect me
And help me back to where I should be
Lover will you still hold on to me
Or have I left you lonely for too long
I’ve been gone from home so long
Can’t seem to make it on my own
Lonely days and lonely nights
This way of living seems so wrong
Prophet can you show the future to me
Sinner will you pay the price for me
Savior will you clean the slate for me
Angel will you help me help the world to see
I’ve been gone from home so long
Can’t seem to make it on my own
Lonely days and lonely nights
This way of living seems so wrong
I’ve been lonely
So lonely
So Goes the Sun
Written by Kevin WilsonAs I sit here by myself, rising with the sun
The only bright spot in my day
Where’d the time and my family go, too ashamed to say
Has everyone forgotten me?
The times go by and the people change so quickly
I can’t keep track
So goes the….Sun
I wish I could have been, sitting on my own shoulder
To see what brought about the change
As they grew I could see the love slipping out of reach
Never to return my way
What a way to say goodbye to an old friend
I can’t let it hurt
So goes the….Sun
So goes the sun
So goes the sun
So goes the sun
I never tried to hurt the ones, that I loved
I just couldn’t see things the same
The time goes by and the people change so quickly
I can’t keep track
So goes the…Sun
Like Yesterday
Written by Kevin Wilson and Pat CouncilorYesterday our memories were packed
The movers have taken them all
Today they came for the rest of me
But I missed their call
Yesterday’s gone for hours now
But I can’t seem to leave
I sit here in this empty house
Staring at the phone machine
I don’t know what went wrong
Like a love sick breakup song
I need to know if this will last for long
I’m here to make you stay
Like yesterday
Yesterday when I saw your face
Sitting in our old place
I couldn’t think of how long it had been before
Yesterday
Yesterday when I looked in your eyes
I saw a time before we lost all ties
It took me back to a place way beyond
Yesterday
I don’t know what went wrong
Like a love sick breakup song
I need to know if this will last for long
I’m here to make you stay
Like yesterday
Darling now how have you been
It’s really good to see you again
Sit and tell me what I’ve missed
While you’ve been gone
I want to hear it all
Like yesterday
Before It Hits the Ground
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierTime to finally take control
Of this beast inside my soul
Tell me will I ever know
If this, is fate, or just a game
It plays over in my head
I wanna talk instead
Tell me all the things you’ve read
To keep, a-way, all the shame
Here I go again
Breaking my own rules
Without a sound
Here you go again
Catching what remains
Before it hits the ground
I remember years gone by
When I didn’t have to try
To keep it all locked up inside
The key, was not, out of reach
Tell what I have to do
To be a little more like you
I want to make it all come true
So I, can just, finally breathe
Here I go again
Breaking my own rules
Without a sound
Here you go again
Catching what remains
Before it hits the ground
I just wanna tell you now
That I’ll make it right somehow
And if I ever see you down
I’ll be, right there, to pull you through
Here I go again
Breaking my own rules
Without a sound
Here you go again
Catching what remains
Before it hits the ground
