1. _ I Won't Let Go
(matraca berg/jim photoglo)
I hear an echo through the aching distance
I know your injured voice
You stand behind this wall of ice between us
I guess you had no choice
You had to save yourself, i understand
You're afraid to put your heart into my careless hands
Oh, they're so much stronger now
If you could find a way somehow to trust in me
I won't let go
I won't let go
If you're in need
Hold on to me
I won't let you go this time
This time
Sometimes a foolish heart will try to travel
Faster than the speed of grace
It's like we try to ride off into the sunset
And fall off into space
I realized what i had done
When i almost let you crash into the sun
You were only reaching out
I will never let you down that way again
I won't let go
I will not let go
If you're in need
Hold on to me
I won't let go
This time

2. _ Slow Poison
(matraca berg/jimmy fadden)
Why do i lie here like this
Paralyzed by the truth in your kiss
You think that i don't know there's someone else
I should get up and go, but i'm not feeling well
There's a slow poison inside of me
A slow poison, killing me by degrees
It's a strong potion, love and jealousy
Don't tell me it's all in my mind
I ain't gonna fall for that this time
I'm not really holding on, can't you see?
It's just when i'm feeling strong
Something brings me to my knees
There's a slow poison inside of me
A slow poison, killing me by degrees
It's a strong potion, love and jealousy
Please, please save me, say you don't love me
Sometimes the venom is the only remedy

3. _ River Of No Return
(matraca berg/gregg sutton)
All aboard
The ship is waiting
All aboard, you know i've finally learned
That i don't need no farewell party
I'm just gonna let my bridges burn
Cause i'm going down the river of no return
Well, i let it go
Yeah, i cried myself an ocean
Now i'm gonna pack up my dreams and sail away
And my destination is none of your concern
Cause i'm going down the river of no return
I'm going down the river of no return
A misty grey morning covered for me
As i left you there sleeping
All tangled up in your dreams
And this morning i woke up
And i knew i was free
You may shed a teardrop
But, oh baby, it won't be for me
So all aboard
The ship is waiting
My ship has finally come in
And i don't need no farewell party
Just gonna watch those bridges burn
Down, down the river
All the way down the river of no return

4. _ Guns In My Head
(matraca berg/gary harrison)
The world explodes in violence
While the angels cry in vain
'cause they know the enemy is silent
And knows us all by name -- all by name
She's living in the suburbs
She's watching in the dark
There's a finger on the trigger
And it's pointed at my heart -- at my heart
Take away all weapons, pray for peace and truth
Bury all the bullets and tell me what i do with these
Guns in my head at war with my soul
While i sleep in my bed
Oh, these guns in my head
Fear, ignorance, and anger
Oh, these guns in my head are what keep me in anger
I see you on the freeway
I see you on the street
I look away from you
You look away from me -- away from me
We nurture our suspicion
A little more each day
Somewhere between the black and white
We struggle in the gray
And i bargain like a salesman, every sunday on my knees
I pray for the world's salvation, and all that answers me are these
Guns in my head at war with my soul
While i sleep in my bed
Oh, these guns in my head
Fear, ignorance, and anger
Oh, these guns in my head are what keep me in anger

5. _ Come To Momma
(willie mitchell/earl randle)
If the sun
Ain't shining bright
And the moon, the moon
Won't shine for you tonight
And you feel
Feelin' real low down today
And the stars in the sky gone away
If life gets hard to understand
And the whole thing gets out of hand
Come to momma
Come see your momma
If you need a pacifier
Call me anytime
I'll be your satisfier
If you feel like a horse
Chompin' at the bit
Call my number anytime
I'll get ya fixed
If life gets hard to understand
And the whole thing gets out of hand
Come to momma
Come see your momma
If life gets hard to understand
And the whole thing gets out of hand
Come to momma
Come see your momma

6. _ Lying To The Moon
(matraca berg/ronnie samoset)
I watch the sun going down
While i stand on sacred ground.
Where once the night found us.
In the twilight of our love.
You said you'd meet me here.
But i'm all alone.
You sounded so sincere.
Well did you lead me on.
I told the starry sky to wait for you.
I told the wind to sigh like lovers do.
I even told the night that you were true.
And you would be here soon.
And now i'm lying to the moon.
And so the night takes me in.
Like a sympathetic friend.
And sends away the trees.
And the willow weeps for me.
The shadows fool my eyes.
And i think i see you.
Then they start to cry.
Don't you know that they believed you
I told the starry sky to wait for you.
I told the wind to sigh like lovers do.
I even told the night that you were true.
And you would be here soon.
And now i'm lying to the moon.

7. _ Let's Face It
(paul buchanan)
It's over, baby, let's face it, baby
I'm seldom on your mind
It's over, baby, let's face it
I won't think you unkind
Go softly when you, go easy when you
Go sometime in the night
It's over, baby, let's face it
It happens all the time
I know for certain, you give me nothin'
The next day i can't find
I know it's raining, but nobody's changing
This water into wine
Cry softly when you talk to me
Our voices in the night
It's over, baby, let's face it
It, happens all the time
You and i, fade to black
Walking down the railroad track
This time maybe we're not coming back
It's over, baby, let's face it, baby
The lights are getting low
It's over, baby, let's face it
Let's pay the man and go
Go softly when you, go easy when you
Leave sometime in the night
It's over, baby, let's face it
It happens all the time
You and i, fade to black
Walking down the railroad track
This time maybe we're not coming back

8. _ Waiting For The Sky To Fall
(matraca berg/wendy waldman)
There's a firefly in love with a distant star
Looking longingly up through the atmosphere
Tiny beacon flies, finds his wings too soon
I watch him make his way, blinded by the moon
I want to believe that the wind would know where to take me
I want to believe that a dream could get me by
But i'm just waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall
You're far away, on the edge of the universe
A galaxy swirling across the room
Tell me, is it cold out there? is there air for me?
Would you even care if i could not breathe?
I want to believe that the wind would know where to take me
I want to believe that a dream could get me by
But i'm just waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall
The laws of gravity cannot tie down my soul
How long can i hold on before i let you go
I want to believe that the wind would know where to take me
I want to believe that a dream could get me by
But i'm just waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall
