- Truth Takes Time
Take my time take my chances with love
Let it out let it in
Make it hurt make it stop
It's a strange addiction
And I know I can't win
Patience come, patience come and take me
To a place we can hide
Like a page from a book of bad dreams
I am lost in her eyes
Tell me why you take things so hard
Everytime you sigh
Why you make things so hard
There's a reason why
Tell me why you break things so hard
Don't look so surprised
Here's my heart, spirit try and move me
I know they'll save me from pain
There is fear in my every motion
Then you break me again
Tell me whay you take things so hard
Everytime you cry
Why you make things so hard
Allegations fly
Tell me why you break things so hard
Don't you wonder why
Tie me down lock me up harbor in your chains
Hold my breathe let me fall
Standing still I am quiet waiting for your next move
If there is one at all
Tell me why you take things so hard
Everytime you sigh
Why you make things so hard
There's a reason why
Tell me why you break things so hard
Don't look so surprised
Tell me why you take things so hard
Everytime you cry
Why you make things so hard
Allegations fly
Tell me why you break things so hard
Don't you wonder why
Tell me why you break things
Kristen: vocals, acoustic guitar
You got a touch like the sky
Makes me feel free
I can fly like a bird when you're holding me
You got arms like the sea
You swallow me whole
But I fear I could drown in the undertow
And if that's what it costs having you here
I gladly would pay for a million years
You got love like the moon
Seems so close I can touch
But you're so far away and I need you so much
You got eyes like the sun
They burn beautiful bright
And I can't look away
Cause I'm blind from the light
And if that's all it costs keeping you here
I gladly would pay for a million years
I don't think you understand the way I feel about you baby
I've been waiting all my life to feel this good I'm so alive now baby
All I can say is don't go away
Cause I need you to stay
You got lips like the wind
They sting and they play
One little kiss and I'm blown away
You got laughter like a rain
It's pouring on me
And I listen for thunder as it washes me clean
And if that's all it costs for keeping you here
I gladly would pay for a million years
Kristen: vocals, acoustic guitar
I am going going away
There is nothing but shadow anymore
Where I once might have tried
I have given up given into pride
Don't think I'm so strong
Why would I be waiting here
If I could just move on
Wouldn't that be easier than this
They say time is my friend
And that distance can do wonders for the heart
But my soul cries alone
And I lie awake and wonder if you're ever coming home
Don't think I'm so strong
Why would I be waiting here
If I could just move on
Wouldn't that be easier than
Something clicks and time just stops when I see your face again
Suddenly something slips and my heart just rocks
And it looks like I lose again
Don't think that I'm so strong
Well why would I be waiting here
If I could just move on
Wouldn't that be easier than this
Baby anything is easier than this
Kristen: vocals, piano
Rain falls down
It's a lonesome sound
In your thorny crown
It's a long way down
Stop before I hit the ground
You might think that this is innocent and fun
If you must pretend that you're not fooling anyone
You with your head in the clouds
Heaven cannot help you now
You built your throne in the sky
It's a long way down
There's a jealous sky
Between you and I
There's an evil seed
Falling from your family tree
My eyes are burning from looking at your sun
Twisted tangled every angle had me pleading on and on
You with your head in the clouds
Heaven cannot help you now
You built your throne in the sky
It's a long way down
And when it's time to kill it baby don't be slow
I know that you can do it baby I know that you know
You with your head in the clouds
Heaven cannot help you now
You built your throne in the sky
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
You with your head in the clouds
It's a long way down
Heaven cannot help you now
It's a long way down
You built your throne in the sky
It's a long way down
Kristen: vocals, acoustic guitar
Michelle: vocals, acoustic guitar
Something's coming over me
Sentimental memory
The sound of your size
The love in your eyes
Is falling like a gentle rain
Wash away my fear and pain
Breathing in
The smell of your skin
I don't have to prove your love to me
I don't need to look too far to see
Somebody who loves me
Someone I can cling to
Somebody who needs me
The way I'm needing you
Pick a certain special guy
Close my eyes and I reply
Twist of your hair
The feelings we shared are something that will never fade
Along with things that always change
Your hand on my face
I almost can taste
You don't have to prove your love to me
I don't need to look too far to see
Somebody who loves me
Someone I can cling to
Somebody who needs me
The way I'm needing you
Something's coming over me
Kristen: vocals, acoustic guitar

so...
here are some rough ideas of the
songs i've been writing. if you hear
drums it was recorded at nickel
& dime studios. if you hear buzzing it
was recorded in my house. if you
hear neither, it was recorded at
sound & fury.
be safe...
Baby you look so sad is there something I can do
Does it help you to know I've been waiting for you
Someone said something 'bout someone who broke your heart
I'd never leave you that way
I may not be who you once wished to the star upon but I'm your fool anyway
Baby you're thru crying
Darlin' from now on your troubles are few
Baby you're thru cryin'
Long as my heart is still beating it'll always be beating for you
Baby you look so scared is there something I can say
Cause it's breaking my heart to see you this way
Someone said something about someone who let you down
Your heart's been broken in two
Though I know I'm not the one that you want it from
I'm ready and waiting to fight off your blues
And you're thru cryin'
Darlin' from now on your troubles are few
Baby you're thru cryin'
Long as my heart is still beating it'll always be beating for you
I know you're hurting 'cause I see your face
It even shows in your smile
We'll break it down a little everyday
And pretty soon your broken heart will be flying
Baby you're thru crying
Darlin' from now on your troubles are few
Baby you're thru cryin'
Long as my heart is still beating it'll always be beating for you
Kristen: vocals, acoustic guitar
Well you don't know how it feels inside
Cause I never ever cheated and I never ever lied
Oh words can be bitter baby bite your lip
Cause you just might kill me if the trigger slips
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels at night
Cause you've always had my arms to hold you tight
It might help a little if you learned to scream
Baby get to the point and say what you mean
You don't know how it feels
You don't know
You spin your magic and I can't get free
I'm at your mercy baby alchemy alchemy
Well it looks like we're headed for a dangerous curve
Ooh baby you don't know
You whistle while you're working my very last nerve
Ooh baby you don't know
Oh but that's just a thing I have come to expect
Ooh baby you don't know
It's hard never knowing what's coming next
Ooh baby you don't know
You don't know know how it feels
You don't know you how it feels
You don't know
Ooh baby you don't know
Kristen: vocals, acoustic guitar
Mary you and I are over now
Truth is that we never got it off the ground
I believed love was hiding in your head
There you were waiting for me in my bed
I was naive enough to think you would be true
Nothing will ever be enough for you
Virtue wasn't on your plate that day
Feelings always such a dull charade
What does that make me if you were here
Just one more tongue that whispered in your ear
I was a fool to think you would be true
Nothing will ever be enough for you
Oh I love you deep as the ocean
I see you face in every sky
I can't believe it's all just a memory
I can't believe it all was a lie
I believed love was hiding in your head
There you were waiting for me in my bed
I was a fool to think you would be true
Nothing will ever be enough for you
Mary did you even have a clue
All your lies would slowly break my heart in two
Kristen: vocals, guitar
Hand me a loaded gun a bullet for my pain
I've got to let some of this shit out
A hole in my head might be just the thing I need
I never know what's good for me
Somebody help me
I must be missing something
This is not what I've been waiting for
Locked away behind this open door
How can a person with a mind to things believe
Everything will be alright
Hand me some turpentine
I've gotta clean this mess I'm making
Here on my knees suits me fine
A match in my hand might just make the whole thing interesting
Well I never know what's good for me
Somebody tell me
I must be missing something
This is not what I've been waiting for
Been here once I can't be here no more
How can a person with a mind to things believe
Everything will be alright
Thinking they're justified and right
Dressed in denial they are victims of their own affliction
And I never know what's wrong or right
Somebody tell me
I must be missing something
This is not what I've been waiting for
Locked away behind this open door
How can a person with a mind to things believe
Everything will be alright
Kristen:vocals, acoustic guitar
I gave you my very best years
Must have been a million tears
Never thought I'd let you go
Shows you what I know
Shows you what I know
Always figured we'd pull through
Guessed you'd always want us to
Never thought love would die
Never guessed that I would understand why
But the truth takes time
My belief is never ending and my faith is somewhat blind
But the sun will shine
Shine it's light on what is real
The truth will be revealed it just takes time
And time goes by
And love can fade
Til all that's left
Is empty space
Thought I had it figured out
What love was all about
I was so sure
I thought time would always be the perfect cure
Til love walked out one day
And sorry was all she'd say
I never thought I'd let love go
Time changes everything
Shows you what I know
Truth takes time
My belief is never ending and my faith is somewhat blind
But the sun will shine
Shine it's light on what is real
The truth will be revealed it just takes time
Kristen: vocals, electric piano
