History of Us
------- -- --

I went all the way to Paris to forget your face
Captured in stained glass, young lives long since passed
Statues of lovers every place
I went all across the continent to relieve this restless love
I walked through the ruins, icons of glory
Smashed by the bombs from above

Chorus:
So we must love while these moments are still called today
Take part in the pain of this passion play
Stretched our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
Until time makes history of us.

Jeu de Paume's full of faces knowing peace, knowing strife
Leisure and toil, still it's canvas and oil
There's just no medium for life
In the midst of the rubble I felt a sense of rebirth
In a dusty cathedral the living God called
And I prayed for my life here in earth

Chorus

There are mountains in Switzerland, brillian cold as they stand
From my hotel room, watching the half-moon
Bleeding its light like a lamb
And the town is illuminated, its tiny figures are fast asleep
And it dawns on me the time is upon me
To return to the flock I must keep.

Chorus

  • Fill It Up Again
    "Won't have you see me as your sad sack
    Lost my something and I can't get it back
    Or a kill on your trophy rack
    I checked my schedule now my train is rolling down a track..."
  • Heartache for Everyone
    "You spent five years saying you'd come my way
    That's a little more wait than a heart can take
    Yeah now that I know it's just a fantasy
    I feel a hard time coming around for me..."
  • Free in You
    "A hard knock
    A cold clock
    Ticking off my time
    A long look..."

    "We get to be a ripple in the water
    We get to be a rock that's thrown
    We get to be a boy on the bridge
    Standing over the reservoir..."
  • All That We Let In
    "Oooooooo
    Oooooooo
    Oooooooo
    Dust in our eyes our own boots kicked up..."
  • Tether
    "Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
    To spill the blood, to pull the weed
    You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
    With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be..."
  • Come on Home
    "Dark clouds are comin' like an army
    Soon the sky will open up and disarm me
    You will go just like you've gone before
    One sad soldier off to war, enemies that only you can see...."
  • Dairy Queen
    "I heard that you were drunk and mean
    Down at the dairy queen
    There's just enough of you in me
    For me to have sympathy..."
