A Strange World (Know That I Love You) lyrics - Cloud Cult

Know that I love you more than I can show
Most of my feelings I push down below
Call up your savior and tell him I'm cold
Cuz this world is a strange place to live

Know that I love you more than I can say
These arms wanna hold you, but I push you away
Ask how I'm doing, and I'll say I am okay
But the truth is I'm caving in
Cuz this world is a strange place to live

Know that I love you more than you can see
I get a bit overwhelmed with the noise around me
I was told there was hope here if I came with a dream
But this world is a strange place to live

Know that I love you more than I act
But the weight of this world well it's breaking my back
And I'll fight to my death if it'll prove to you that
The good guys will maybe still win
No, don't you ever give in
Though this world is a strange place to live

Know that I love you more than you can know
I may have to leave here, but I won't let you go

When You Reach The End lyrics - Cloud Cult

When you reach the end
You cannot complain to the manager
No returns, no exchanges
Life is not refundable
Your body is just packaging
Sent back for recycling
There never was a warranty
Make the best of it until it's time to go
Make the best of it until it's time to go

When you reach the end
You'll have to turn in all your memories
All the the good ones and the ugly ones
Will replay through all eternity
And we'll gather 'round in circles
Telling stories of who we thought we were
Are you proud are you embarrassed?
Take one last look and then it's time to go
Take one last look and then it's time to go
It's time to go

When you reach the end you'll see
Life is simple carpentry
You're given all the tools you need
To build your own reality
Did you spend your time making heaven?
Or did you make your own hell?
Be honest with yourself, because
What you build is where you get to go
What you build is where you get to go
What you build is where you get to go

What you build is where you get to go

When you reach the end it's true
Life goes on without you
And the last two thoughts inside of you
Are: "I'm sorry!" and "I love you!"
And as you fade into a memory
They'll measure up your heart to see
How much love you kept buried
And how much love you were brave enough to show
How much love were you brave enough to show?
How much love were you brave enough to show?

How much love are you brave enough to show?

The Best Time lyrics - Cloud Cult

It's a perfect day to remind myself to feel
I'm always busy pushing rocks uphill
With a pillow case over my head
I couldn't see that this might be the best time of my life

I try to cover up my mental health
But the truth is, I'm not well
Round and round, here I go again
I couldn't see that this might be the best time of my life

And I never meant to take you for granted
Habit is the enemy of presence
But the days, they all just started getting blurry on me

It's a perfect day to get out of my head
Finally be okay with where I am
All I want to be is a better man
I could see that this might be the best time of my life

But I got mind that's putting me through hell
I'm a wooden pony on a carousel
Round and round, here I go again

And I never meant to take you for granted
Habit is the enemy of presence
But the days, they all just started getting blurry on me

It's a perfect day to finally break the spell
Get me off this carousel
I need help to be a better man
I need to beat it cuz this might be the best time of my life
I need to see it like this might be the best time of my life

Back Into My Arms lyrics - Cloud Cult

The first time that I held you I couldn't catch my breath
Cuz I knew someday I'd have to let you go
I'm supposed to raise you to have the strength to leave the nest
But the day that you leave this home my heart will leave my chest
For now I am thankful every time you need to rest
Back into my arms again

In my heart I'll always hold you like you're still my baby doll
My darling, I'll protect you from it all
You've been learning how to walk away since we taught you how to crawl
But someday I'll be holding hands with the shadows in these walls
Just know I'll always be here every time that you fall
Back into my arms again

The last time that I held you I couldn't catch my breath
I knew that it was time to let you go
I gave you your roots and I had to give you wings
But watching you fly away is a heartbreaking thing
This old house is way too quiet, I miss hearing you sing
Come back into my arms again

I'm not the kind of person who's good with goodbyes
So I'll save you a seat at the table again tonight
I made your favorite recipe but it just wasn't the same
And if I could you know I would do it all again
I choose to believe that good things never end
Come back into my arms again
Back into my arms again

What Would You Do? lyrics - Cloud Cult

What would you do if you had to trade shoes with the love you once knew?
And what would you say if you had to replay the fits you both threw?
Would you self medicate or jump off a fire escape, divide your belongings in two?
What would you do? What would you do?

What would you do if you finally knew the pain they've lived through?
And how would it feel if what they felt was as real as the feelings in you?
Would you just leave, cuz you cannot believe that you can be full of it too?
What would you do? What would you do?

What would you do if you could see through the games you both do?
Would you be surprised if you could see through their eyes and saw how they see you?
Would your life be better if you never met or would you still be dealing with you and your monsters too?
What would you do? What would you do?

If this was the end and I never saw you again
What would I do?
Do you know what I'd change if I could do it again?
I'd stop trying to change you

If our past went away, and we just met today
What would we do?
Love at first sight or the start of our first fight?
All I know is I'd never let go of you

So much is the same, and yet
So much has changed, and yet
I still have these feelings for you and the things you do
What would you do? What would you do?

One Way Out Of A Hole lyrics - Cloud Cult

I had a dream that we were happily lost
We left the path and just wandered off
We said, "In our imagination, everywhere is home"
Uh-huh

We used to leave breadcrumbs to mark the path
But where this is going there ain't no map
"Hey, what's the destination?"
Heck if I know
What's the destination?

Which way do I go?
Which way do I go?
There's only one way out of a hole
Giddy-up, let's go

The ancestors spoke, and said you're losing reception
You think too dang much to have any connection
In our hearts we are the ocean
But we are islands in our minds
Uh-huh

They say I can't find my way 'til I know who I am
Well, I'm a buffalo trapped in human skin
Exploding a million directions
While trying to hold it all inside
What's the destination?

Which way do I go?
Which way do I go?
There's only one way out of a hole
3-2-1, go

Are we on our own?
No, we're in this together
Are we all alone?
No, we're parts of each other
So screw the diagnosis
You're gonna be alright friend
Uh-huh

You deserve better, you don't need that crap
You planned your whole life out, now burn that map
Say, "What's the destination?"
Heck if I know!
What's the destination?

Which way do I go?
Which way do I go?
Which way do I go?
There's only one way out of a hole
Come on, let's go

The Firefly And The Snake lyrics - Cloud Cult

In the middle of the night
I woke up outside the kitchen window
Staring in at a replay of my days
And something tells me I can't come back again

From there I watched my life
I looked back on myself but didn't recognize him
Ashamed to believe I could ever be that way
But then I saw you light a candle in my name
In the morning I awoke and came to life again
One more chance to finally make a change

You are the light of my life
Oh, my firefly, my sunrise, and my spark
Don't ever try to cover up your howling luminescence
Though they will come and try to blow your fire down
Some lights were never meant to be turned out

When the snake sheds its old skin
It looks back on itself but doesn't recognize it
Ashamed to believe it could ever be that way
So it attacks it out of fear and disdain

You and I built a fire
From the parts of us we never wanna see again
And we watched it burn all night despite the rain
In the morning most our dragons still were not slain
So we reached out our hands and made them friends
One more chance to finally make a change

You are the light of my life
Oh, my firefly, my sunrise, and my spark
Don't ever try to cover up your howling luminescence
Though they will come and try to blow your fire down

You are the light of my life
Oh, my firefly, my sunrise, and my spark
Don't ever try to cover up your howling luminescence
Though they will come and try to blow your fire down
Some lights were never meant to be turned out

Lady Of The Hill lyrics - Cloud Cult

Have you heard about the lady of the hill?
You all like to think that she's crazy
But I've made up my mind
I'm going to see her tonight
Would you like to come along?

She lost her family in a fire
Her husband and her daughter and her baby
She tried to kill the pain
But the bullet just nicked her brain
Now y'all think she's insane

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

Doctors say that's when she started seeing spirits
The first ones were her daughter and her baby
And that's why I need to see her
Cuz I know that she's a seer
And I have things to be seen

She lives in hiding on that hill
And they say there's no way I'll ever find her
I search day and night
And then I see a campfire light
It's the lady of the hill

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I call her name and go beside her
She falls to her knees as I cry to her:
I say, "You need to know I'm fine
And my love for you won't die
Like I did in that fire"

"I love you Lady of the Hill
And I'll take care of our daughter and our baby
Oh my darling wife
Live a wonder-filled life
Cuz that's the magic pill
To fill holes you couldn't fill
And kill pain you couldn't kill"

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

Victor lyrics - Cloud Cult

Come on Dad, let's go down to the river
Can't you hear them singing your name?
You've been laying in this bed for months now
And it's hard to see you in pain

Oh, your love, you could not explain
And the words you chose not to say
I can feel you slipping away

There's an old farm road that'll lead your ghost to heaven
But I know you're a little afraid
I wish I could still be that kid in the back of your Buick
Making sure you get there okay

Dad, we may differ in how we pray
But wherever you go, save me a place
I can feel you slipping away

There's a cold, dark desk down in the corner of the basement
Where you worked your days away
I can never claim to know your story
But I love you just the same

Oh, your love, you could not explain
And the words you chose not to say
And the family you fought hard to raise
And the friends who celebrate your name
And the sickness that strangled your brain
And the secrets you took to your grave
And the feelings you kept in a cage
And the sorrow that came out as rage
I can feel you slipping away
I can feel you slipping away
I can feel you slipping away

Come on Dad, let's go down to the river
Can't you hear them singing your name?

Ascension lyrics - Cloud Cult

(Instrumental)

Song From Oblivion lyrics - Cloud Cult

For a moment you could feel, like you never felt before
In your mind you set fire to all the billboards
'Til the cars disappear and it's just you on a horse
And something inside you says you're finally ready, baby

The panic in your chest is the call of the wild
It's the song from oblivion, it's the end of denial
Now you're calling your doctor cuz you're crying like a child
But something inside you says you're finally ready

The moment you realize you're made out of earth
Is the moment you feel your heart start to give birth
Now you're saying "I love you, and where does it hurt?"
And something inside you says you're finally ready, baby

It's the pissed-off rantings when there shouldn't have been a word
All your broken pieces are a buffalo herd
The moment you surrender you turn into birds
And then something inside you says you're finally ready

You gotta set down the baggage you picked up as a kid
You know you're only good as the sins you forgive
Gotta give yourself grace for the way that you lived
And something inside you says you're finally ready, baby

You hear the call of the wild
You hear the Song from Oblivion
You can just make out the words as the spirits are singing them
"Children, we love you, now go make this right again"

It's the smell of the campfire, the beat of the drummer
You look in the mirror and see your great grandmother
All of the ancestors under the streets
Lift up their song singing "You're finally ready, baby"

Bigger Than Me lyrics - Cloud Cult

Knowing I know nothing is the only thing I know
Hold my hand and don't let go
You'll find me in the woods trying to dig up a little hope
I don't need a temple, cuz this is all one Holy Ghost

Knowing I know nothing means I just know here and now
So turn off my brain, cuz it's too freakin' loud
And let's do the hokey pokey, if that's what it's all about
I can't think it with my mind and I can't speak it with my mouth

It's something bigger than me
It's something bigger than me

Knowing I know nothing means I cannot explain
Why some get it easy and others just get pain
And it makes me wanna curse as much as it makes me wanna pray
But for some Goddamn reason I get to wake up another day

And that's something bigger than me
That's something bigger than me

Back then we had the gratitude to live life on our knees
We had a million gods, because we worshipped every leaf
Now you say there's nothing out there that you can believe
But everywhere I look I see it staring back at me

It's something bigger than me
Something bigger than me

Knowing I know nothing is the only thing I know
Hold my hand and don't let go
Knowing I know nothing is the only thing I know
Hold my hand and don't let go
Knowing I know nothing is the only thing I know
Hold my hand and don't let go

When I have my doubts about the meaning of this life
I see it in my children, and I see it in my wife
I don't need the answers, I just need a friend
Cuz the only thing worth knowing is love in the end

That's something bigger than me
That's something bigger than me

Everything that you do, it goes on, it goes on
Everything that you feel, it goes on, it goes on
All that you know, it goes on, it goes on
All of your love, it goes on, it goes on
