IN TIME
Have you ever wondered why
If the sky fell would you die
What would happen then
What would happen then
Are you smart enough to try and understand
As the seasons fly I’m wasting while I try to disappear
If I run will you let me
Will you come and get me to wipe away the fear
Oh you say in time…in time
If there were no space and time
Would we need a nursery rhyme
To make us feel okay
Would we hear it anyway
Are you tough enough to try and comprehend
As the seasons fly I’m wasting while I try to disappear
If I run will you let me
Will you come and get me to wipe away the fear
Oh you say in time…in time
Once I had a dream that I was someone who was no one
And I was falling from the window of the 32nd floor
Everything around me was so blurry in a hurry that
I thought I was gone
but I was…not
As the seasons fly I’m wasting while I try to disappear
If I run will you let me
Will you come and get me to wipe away the fear
As the seasons fly I’m wasting while I try to disappear
If I run will you let me
Will you come and get me to wipe away the fear
Wipe away the fear

Beautiful Irony
03:54
|
|||
|
I may have given up the promise of the morning
Let tomorrow be a new day for someone else
But every night even with that worn out line dawning
I can’t help but trust the promise of you
You’ll see me through…I believe
A good friend once thought of giving up on feelings
I guess maybe ‘cause they tore him up too much
Well saving that breakdown as a last resort was appealing
But if I try his theory that’s probably a feeling too….
Its time for you to tell me
How long is this forever gonna take me
I thought it’d make more sense to hear it out loud
The end is in sight if you’re trying to break me
But the beautiful irony is the light at the end of the tunnel is you
Might have stumbled a few times today maybe a thousand
Lately it’s been harder to keep track
I suppose it don’t matter
‘cause I don’t think you’re counting
It’s all I’ve known so to find something new…its time for you… to tell me
Chorus
Bridge
I’m at the end of myself trying to numb the pain
This oil and water I give to the Father
I dare you to wash it away
Chorus x2

Close Your Eyes
05:12
|

|
Isn’t it amazing
How I find myself alone
How is it that you know what I’m gonna say
I persist and think that
I can get away
Pre Chorus
And then it’s all I can do
I seem to barely make it through
Chorus
Close your eyes it’s barely like a dream
Give me the air I’ll use it I swear
You offer me so much that is unseen
Transport me away I’m seizing the day
What comes first the doubt or sin
I need some room to change within
Tongue tied and twisted
My head says I missed it
Pre Chorus
But my hearts still safe and sound
Is this the fertile soiled ground (x2)

Whom I Have Believed In
03:32
|
|||
|
Come on, don’t you want to take my hand, we’ll fall again
You seem like the restless type for trying anything
Just once I’d like to see if you know what it means to be, to be holy
Take my time or take my hand it easy once you understand
I know whom I have believed in
There’s not a dark spot around to block out the sound
That’s playing in my heart
I know whom I have believed in
You know I’m bound to the love I found
What are you afraid of, is this all a big façade?
I thought you were one of us but I’m thinkin’ you’re a fraud
It’s like you’ve got your own rules what would Jesus do
While we all stand here and wait to see
So do you really know yourself do you know what you believe?
I know whom I have believed in
I know whom I have believed in
I know whom I have believed in
There’s not a dark spot around to block out the sound
That’s playing in my heart
I know whom I have believed in
You know I’m bound to the love I found
I know whom I have believed in
There’s not a dark spot around to block out the sound
That’s playing in my heart
I know whom I have believed in
You know I’m bound to the love I found

Make It Right
04:44
|
|||
|
How can I say I’m sorry
If what was done seemed for your own good
Truth never comes so easy
When you’re not ready to receive it
Pain always outwears its welcome
Anger it lasts so long
Grieving not because I miss you
Rather the freedom you never knew
I’m not ready to make it right
It’s the right I’m ready to make
Tears they fall down from my eyes
I’ll never understand why
Stuck in the challenge
Wrapped in the trial
Winter walked in looks like it’s staying for a while
Must be God’s will that’s the common answer
Are you playing the fool might be the last to know
Blood isn’t thicker than water
Even then you were thin through my veins
Oh…the lie….changed it’s face without a warning
After it all I still love the same
O that little voice says looks like we’re here again
Struggling, Fighting for the truth
It’s a three sided story and I’m not amused
Angel wings and forked tongues
Try to confuse my mind
The impossible collides and the truth is on everyone’s side
I’m not ready to make it right
It’s the right I’m ready to make
Tears they fall down from my eyes
I’ll never understand why
I’m not ready to make it right
It’s the right I’m ready to make
Tears they fall down from my eyes
I’ll never understand why

Little Piece of Heaven
04:23
|
|||
|
My little piece of heaven
Comes down on me tonight
Thought all my planes were clever
Have yet to get it right
Every moment you wait
Every breath is at stake
To the mountains the cry fall on us
To the hills oh let ‘em cover us
To the mountains the cry fall on us
Oh to the hills oh let ‘em cover us
He don’t tell his secrets
But he shows them in the vaguest of ways
All the air that is between us
Soon won’t keep us away
All the boundaries we break
The excuses we make
Torn apart but renewed at last
The secret lies in forgetting the past
You can’t deny that it’s you
That this hits home to and…
To the mountains the cry fall on us
To the hills oh let ‘em cover us
To the mountains the cry fall on us
Oh to the hills oh let ‘em cover us

Every Morning
04:57
|
|||
|
Heard a love song while I was drivin’ home
It was sayin’: ‘trouble to most a burden to some’
Well it’s a burden I can live with as long as I’m livin’ with you
Whoever wrote it, too bad they can’t see
You standin’ there the way you’re lookin’ at me
It’s the way you take my hand and the way you whisper ‘it’s okay’
So every morning take your time
Every morning look at me and I’ll remind you they
Should’ve written that song to say:
Your love has found me here today
But you’d have found me anyway
And from this I have drawn
This conclusion that I make
Sure as I’m standin’ here today
As one we’re meant to carry on
So every morning I’ll smile
Every morning I’ll think, probably out loud, to myself
Now I don’t have to say …’you’re the one that got away’
What’s life got in store ten years from now?
That don’t matter so much
I’d rather figure out how
To make this moment last forever
Make this feeling never ever subside
We’ll have pictures and memories
but it’s never felt so good to be this weak in the knees
I’m anxious, scared and lucky
Only you can make these feelings collide
So every morning take your time
Every morning look at me and I’ll remind you how
we felt right here right now
Your love has found me here today
But you’d have found me anyway
And from this I have drawn
This conclusion that I make
Sure as I’m standin’ here today
As one we’re meant to carry on
So every morning I’ll smile
Every morning I’ll think, probably out loud, to myself
Now I don’t have to say …’you’re the one that got away’
What do you do when you’re laughin’ and cryin’?
Hard to do both but I think I’m tryin’
Your love has found me here today
But you’d have found me anyway

So Called We
03:06

I can fly don’t ask me why
I see him running miles away
You will be My slavery
Oh we’re waiting for the train
There’s so much I cannot be
So much between you and me
There’s a place I’d rather be
That place without the so called we
What is this game We choose to play
Don’t you throw me all the blame
Right now I’m fine don’t waste your time
On me it all will be okay
There’s so much I cannot be
So much between you and me
There’s a place I’d rather be
That place without the so called we

Song That Never Ends
03:01
|

|
Another smile and you're always thinkin'
How long before it turns into a cry
This is how everybody's feelin'
Here's somethin' you ought to try
There is a fountain flowing deep within
There is a river you can jump right in
It is a song I heard on the sweet sunrise
It is a song that never ends
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na
After awhile you are coming around to
A better place that you have found to live
Took so long and now you’re wonderin'
Why'd you wait till now to begin
There is a fountain flowing deep within
There is a river you can jump right in
It is a song I heard on the sweet sunrise
It is a song that never ends
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na
There is a fountain flowing deep within
There is a river you can jump right in
It is a song I heard on the sweet sunrise
It is a song that never ends
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na

Together Shine
05:12

|
Not the kind to avoid it
Let’s make it clear
Why’d you ask me over here?
There was something in the way you said it
It’s like you want me to change
Am I not good enough?
This grounds a little rough
From my own stones
Or the ones you’re throwing?
What’s your excuse this time?
Tell me am I way out of line?
Brief moment in your eyes
Will reveal itself in time
Happen upon the truth you’ll find
We were made to together shine
Together shine
Why you keep saying heartache follows you around
Pick yourself up off the ground
It sounds cliché’ but it’s what you needed
In the light of these things
Why don’t you tell me honestly
What do you think is more costly
To tear your wall down or keep adding to it
What’s your excuse this time?
Tell me am I way out of line?
Brief moment in your eyes
Will reveal itself in time
Happen upon the truth you’ll find
We were made to together shine
Together shine
It will find you somehow
The truth will find you anyhow
It will find you somehow
What’s your excuse this time?
Tell me am I way out of line?
Brief moment in your eyes
Will reveal itself in time
Happen upon the truth you’ll find
We were made to together shine
Brief moment in your eyes
Will reveal itself in time
Happen upon the truth you’ll find
We were made to together shine
Together shine

Annagail Grand Rapids, Michigan
Equal parts singer/songwriter and rock band holding their own with heavy hitters or in an intimate setting. Somehow, they
make sense in all extremes. A blend of courage and frailty are embraced and they’re proud of both. As Jared has said of their fluid style, “Its not uncommon for me to listen to The Cure and Steve Earl back to back...before breakfast even.”
