This song is IT for me right now. I don't know how to describe it genre-wise, maybe folk/blues? It's just hauntingly beautiful.

~The Other Side of Fear~

World, I want to leave you better
I want my life to matter
I am afraid I have no purpose here
I watch the news on TV
Abandon myself daily
I am afraid to let you see the real me

Rain it falls, rain it falls
Pouring on me
And the rain it falls, rain it falls
Sowing the seeds of love and hope, love and hope
We don't have to stay here, stuck in the weeds

Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today? (Oh)
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today? (Oh)

You're not alone in all this
You're not alone, I promise
Standing together we can do anything
You're not alone in all this
You're not alone, I promise
Standing together we can do anything
World, you're not alone in all this
You're not alone, I promise
Standing together we can do anything

I want to leave you better
I want my life to matter
I am afraid I have no purpose here
The rain it falls, rain it falls
Pouring on me
And the rain it falls, rain it falls
Sowing the seeds of love and hope, love and hope
You don't have to stay here, stuck in the weeds

Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today? (Oh)
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change?
Have I the courage to change today? (Oh)

They've been sayin', you're sophisticated
They're complaining, over-educated
You are saying all the words I'm dreaming
Say it after me
Say it after me

They will blame us, crucify, and shame us
We can't help it, if we are a problem
We are trying hard to get your attention
Climbing up your wall
Climbing up your wall

Don't go there, 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me, when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're trying hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused, 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same as you

You were waiting for the elevator
You were saying, all the words I'm dreaming
No more asking, questions or excuses
Information's here, here and everywhere

Don't go there, 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me, when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're trying hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused, 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same way as you, well, but

I don't, I don't want anything
I know it's not, it's not your fault
I don't want anyone
As I do, it's not for you

Stockholders
Same shit, a different life
I'll get it right some time
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight

I appreciate a good murder ballad, and this is one of the most poignant I've ever heard.



All my life,
I ain't ever been a lucky man
Saw the back of my daddy's hand
Lost your mama to the promised land
In my time,
I ain't ever had a thing that's mine
'Til they handed me a baby fine
My little girl

There are only two things I know
I get ugly when the whiskey flows
Wanted you to know I love you so
And I would kill before I let you go

Taking off for Mississippi
Wearing someone else's name
Brought you in this world and I
Can take you from it just the same
If you leave for Mississippi
I will beat you at your game
Brought you in this world and I
Can take you from it just the same

My dear one
Heard you're whispering your plans to run
Off to marry some rich man's son
Bet he's never met a poor man's gun

In the darkness you could not see
The drunken devil instructing me
Two bullets in a crimson sea
Now I'm certain that you'll never be

Taking off for Mississippi
Wearing someone else's name
Brought you in this world and I
Can take you from it just the same
If you leave for Mississippi
I will beat you at your game
Brought you in this world and I
Can take you from it just the same

Grief and sin
When the righteousness of you sets in
And the blood in my veins begins
To ramble on
Now I know we can
Stand and judge the execution man
But we all have to make a trembling stand
Before the sun

Maple tree
Can your branches carry me?
Before the war, before the wine
Before I stole what wasn't mine
Can you bring my baby back to me?

~The Other Side of Fear~
In heavy air I feel it creep
And our eyes can't meet
A poison word that you chose
And the distance grows

And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna die a little more
Every day
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna cry a little more
Every day

To pull yourself from harm
To be the braver one
To raise a weary hand
In a house that's built on sand
To wear it like a crown
To kick before you drown
To fight it and to cry no more

Will I be the warrior?
Or will the axe shine clean?
Steely eyed, your blood'll burn
I will save our lives

And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna die a little more
Every day
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't wanna cry a little more
Every day

To pull yourself from harm
To be the braver one
To raise a weary hand
In a house that's built on sand
To wear it like a crown
To kick before you drown
To fight it and to cry no more

Cry no more
I don't wanna die a little more
Every day
I don't wanna cry no more
I don't wanna die a little more
Every day

[Cry No More]

Sometimes I justify the words I spew
Like spitting ambers they spoke and kill
Outside my troubles are colder
But in these eyes the melody smolders
I know the whispers they hurt sometimes
They swell and fracture my view of light
But can't you see the sanity in my epiphany
Let me cure these blackened hearts

Let me show you one last time
Let me show you one last sign
You can find it
I can't say that I can change the world
But if you let me
I can make another world for us
Let me suffer all for you
Make this vision all brand new
We can fight them
I can't say that I can win it all
Come with me and I will make my world stand tall
Let me do this

Simplicitate cordis quaerite illum quoniam
Invenitur ab his qui non tentant illum

I'm here for all to see
In my bones there's dignity
I will fight them
I can't say that I can change the world
But if you let me I can change the world for us
Come with me and

Make this vision all brand new
We can fight them

I can't say that I can win it all
Come with me and I will make my world stand tall
Let me do this

I am here
To rejoice
To revenge
To resolve
To be longed for
To be longed for
I am here (If you want this)
To rejoice (If you want this)
To revenge
To resolve
To be longed for
To be longed for
I am here
I am here

Sometimes I justify the words I spew
Like secret angels they test your will
Outside my troubles are over
But in your eyes the melody is frozen.
