RED BLUE AND WHITE (grayce)
hey welcome to the real world / hey won't you take a seat / there's things you have to do now / there's folks you need to meet / you need to know your enemy / you need to know your friend / who knows how this thing started / who knows when it will end / but it's red blue and white / so it must be right / walk proudly through the night / 'cause it's red blue and white / no time for asking questions / no need to be concerned / our problems will be handled / our bridges will be burned / don't question why you're fighting / that just gets in the way / don't do the things i'm doing / just do the things i say / 'cause it's red blue and white / so it must be right / fly all your flags tonight / 'cause it's red blue and white / don't even get me started / don't say that i don't care / i've met with every leader / i see no problems there / this freedom isn't freedom / this freedom has a cost / we need a brand new battle / to hide the ones we've lost / 'cause it's red blue and white / so it must be right / kill everything in sight / but red blue and white

ONE LAST KISS (brunk/grayce)
hold me gently in your arms / even deeper in your eyes / on our island safe from harm / i'm soaring in your skies / but something waits outside the door / so before it nails this to the floor / one last kiss / sometimes i wonder what you mean / when you say it's all in vain / is it random or obscene / are we pawns in someone's game / but that someone's coming back today / so before we throw this all away / one last kiss / wonder why we bother / wonder why I care / wonder if it's over / or was it really there / the room is empty so am I / I watch the morning coffee brew / with visions of a thousand stars / enfolding me and you / and I guess I had a dream today / but I liked the ending anyway / one last kiss

MILES TO GO (grayce)
Here I stand in a brand new nation / drier earth and darker sky / point me toward the next salvation / miles to go before I die / pass the pipe and pass the border / kiss the dreams and watch them fly / can you not ride any harder / miles to go before i die / if i do not make it to you / dare not think i did not try / maybe i just dove right through you / miles to go before i die / mother mary i beseech thee / answer to the where and why / abandon not your plans to reach me / miles to go before i die

NONETHELESS (grayce/brunk)
I'm afraid to stop looking at the sun / for it might go away / when the moon comes out this chance is done / and there's another day / how many hours did I waste without you / what did i taste without you but bitterness / and if i try not to think about it / i think about it nonetheless / i'm afraid to start looking at myself / afraid of what i'll see / a mass of doubt and undiscovered roads / and sideways symmetry / and will i ever see your face again / i wonder when / who could guess / and if i try not to think about it / i think about it nonetheless / and if i go through what i see / will it make you proud of me / will it all be worth it all / and do you know from where you are / that you're still my brightest star / without you i can only fall / so i'll look in every sky / in case i catch your eye or just a fleeting wing / and the love i got from you / will somehow get me through / almost anything / and since you're gone am i a colder man / or just an older man / or even less / 'cause if i try not to think about you / i think about you nonetheless

USED TO YOU (grayce)
Well it's been 10 minutes and i cannot stand / went from king of the world to a broken man / other than lonely nothing's changed / but man i sure am feeling strange / when you're gone, don't know what to do / 'cause baby i'm used to you / well the place looks empty and the sky ain't blue / the bed got bigger and the carport too / and i can't seem to find a thing / and i can't screen calls if the phone don't ring / i love my cat but she won't do / 'cause baby i'm used to you / i can't take me to the bar / and i can't set my vcr / i can't cook my breakfast right / and i can't keep me up all night / well you think by now i'd have seen it all / but this situation's got me up the wall / my chest is tight and my eyes are red / and you're stuck right here in my head / i said i love you, guess it's true / 'cause baby i'm used to you / i can't keep my mind on track / and i can't rub my aching back / i can't hang the drapes just right / and i can't keep me up all night / well the everyday things all seem so wrong / and i ain't gonna last too long / i may look brave but it's all for show / you take my heart every time you go / so hurry home or i'm sure through / 'cause baby i'm used to you / stay for a lifetime, make it two / 'cause baby i'm used to you / you're stuck with me like super glue / 'cause baby i'm used to you

WEST OF CASSIOPEIA (grayce)
somewhere west of cassiopeia / i thought i saw your star / it flashed a midnight blue light on my silver car / and as i pulled off on the shoulder / and put out all the lights / it danced a dance of love and then spun out of sight / and it doesn't really matter if i was dreamin' / if dreamin ' feels this close to being right / if dreamin's all it takes my friend to have you back with me again / i'll be dreamin' / west of cassiopeia tonight / somewhere north of seven sisters / i heard your voice come down / like time had never passed and you were still around / and you said that you were happy / and you said that you were free / and that was what had always mattered most to me / so if hearing your wild whisper makes me crazy / insanity is welcome in this light / cause greater than the gifts of kings are memories of happy things / so i'm dreamin' / west of cassiopeia tonight / sometimes i still feel your arms around me / and when i do my god my soul takes flight / so if your light can shine on me from heaven or a memory / i'll be dreamin' / west of cassiopeia tonight / i'll be seeing you / west of cassiopeia tonight
