DAWN EP

Dawn

Dark clouds across the sea
Something's changed inside of me
Emotion rising in the tide with
All these questions I can't hide but

If the answer's on the way
Sun will shine at break of day
I'll be awake 'til dawn
Be awake 'til dawn
Be awake

Like the watchman in a tower
I will look up every hour
Keeping with the pace
I will run this race

If the answer's on the way
Sun will shine at break of day
I'll be awake 'til dawn
Be awake 'til dawn
Be awake

and we won't give up
though the road gets rough
we'll keep on keep on keep on

If the answer's on the way
Sun will shine at break of day
I'll be awake 'til dawn
Be awake 'til dawn
Be awake

Gold

Hallway full of slamming doors
Can't get up off the floor
When what you have isn't enough
You'll never find what you want

When what you want is all you see
it gets harder to breathe
in this silver cityscape of heartache
out of place

In the fight we find the sky's not cold
This summer light breathes life through your eyes
Like gold, more than gold

Moths and rust destroy the treasure
Still we line up to be measured
The rope burns sliding through my hands
With all these plans

In the fight we find the sky's not cold
This summer light breathes life through your eyes
Like gold, more than gold

And what we take away is more than gold
What we take away is more than gold
What we take away is more than gold

Fall and Rise

Caught in the undertow
Feels like nothing will ever change
Coming up short and fighting with
The same old waves

Ok, alright, you're gonna make it through
Never too late to rise up the way you do
When the darkness falls
You will rise again
Alive in all your dreams

A boarded up house by the sea
Collecting dust in the evening breeze
We weren't meant to love and lose
One day all will be made new

Ok, alright, you're gonna make it through
Never too late to rise up the way you do
When the darkness falls
You will rise again
Alive in all your dreams

We rise and fall, we rise and fall
We rise and fall, we rise and fall

We fall and rise, we fall and rise
We fall and rise, we fall and rise

Ok, alright, you're gonna make it through
Never too late to rise up the way you do

Measureless

There has never been a greater love
Gave it all to save us
There has never been a greater peace
Close to every tear that falls
Never out of reach

You cannot be contained
In the depths we have made
Breathe it in every breath
Oh your love is measureless
This measureless, measureless love
Measureless, measureless love

Walls guarding all I've failed to prove
Start to shake within the wild truth
That breaks apart these chains could this be
What it really means to be free?

You cannot be contained
In the depths we have made
Breathe it in every breath
Oh your love is measureless
This measureless, measureless love
Measureless, measureless love

Farther than we can see
Reaches through eternity
Farther than we can see
Reaches through eternity
