Track Name: Start Of Time
Do you remember back at day one when we were new and our love had just begun?
The whole world was our play toy, you were my little girl I was your little boy.
We were young then, we were perfect then, in the Garden we became best friends.
Do you remember the walks we’d take with the flowers in your hair and the scent they’d make?
And we never felt alone in the perfect world that was our perfect home.
It was green then, it was summer then, in Eden.

Since the start of time, you were always mine.
I will always be your Adam, and you’re my Eve.

Then something happened, I can’t explain. The whole world started to change.
I tasted beauty; I tasted fear. And the angel said we couldn’t keep living here.

Now we’re living with brittle old bones and our kids are gone they are on their own.
But we still walk through this garden we made, holding hands like our younger days.
Now we’re getting old, now we’re getting cold, but we’re together ‘til God takes us home
Track Name: Stay With Me
All my fears have come to pass, will you stay with me for a little while?
I don’t have the strength to ask, no I don’t have the courage of a child.
Stay with me a little while.
My old friends are long gone I don’t think that they ever think of me.
I don’t understand the love it takes, three nails, some thorns and a tree.
Stay with me a little while; a little while.
I was just a kid back when I first held a girl’s hand.
I am still a kid right now; I don’t think that I’ll ever be a man.
Stay with me a little while.
I am not content with where I am, I’ll always be wishing on the stars.
When I die and see my Lord I will understand where the good times are.
Stay with me a little while; a little while.

Where are all the small towns, where all the quite sounds?
Where are all the libraries, where are all the scraped up knees?
Where did all the swing sets go? In the winter now it never snows.
Why is everything beautiful changing too fast for me?
And whoa these are songs I’ll never know
And photographs I’ll never see, I wonder how many are of me.
And hey tomorrow is a brand new day.
If Jesus comes back I’ll tell him I’ll miss this place.

All my dreams they come and go every night and I never
Remember a single one but I will dream anew every night forever.
Track Name: Martyrdom
They tied me to the wall, they cut my hair
They threw me underground, with the lions down there.
They walked me into the fire to watch me burn.
They nailed me to a tree and I took their turn.
Walk on water with your socks on.

They killed me with gas and guns, they killed me with stones.
They killed my whole family, they killed me alone.
We’ll never get out of this storm, we’ll never wake.
We’ll never see our old homes again, for goodness’ sake.
Walk on water with your socks on.

Oh my God, why have you forsaken me?

They sent me across the world, they set me on giants.
I can’t do anything, there’s no harm in trying.
I’ll never be a saint; I’ve never seen an angel.
Can Heaven be my resting place? I’m trying like hell.
Walk on water with your socks on.
Track Name: End Of Time
Oh at the ending of my life I am sure that I will die
Oh I am sure that I will cry if you are not there
If you are not there
Oh at the end of every day I get on my knees and pray
Oh please never take me away, if just for a little while more
I want to be like Lazarus; I want to have a second chance.

Here at the end, the end of time,
I know you’ll always be alive.
Please send me a message, give me a sign.
When it’s time.

I don’t know what Heaven’s like but I guess it’s pretty nice
I can’t be sure if it is there until I see it with my eyes
Doubting Thomas is my life
When all the rich men are dead, and when all the poor are fed
When we all live overhead, we will get our daily bread
I won’t remember what I said down here.
