It Won’t Hurt
Words and Music by Adam Lockwood
Life has a way of taking
Everything away that you hold dear
I may be uncertain but
I’m certain that she’s taking me away from here
My mother and my father couldn’t
Keep things together like they vowed
The only thing that’s certain is that
Everyone you love will let you down
And if you’re leaving me
Then I’m leaving you first
So it won’t hurt
Ain’t it funny how a place
Where you’ve never been can feel like home
If home is where the heart is
I’ll follow mine wherever it may go
And if you’re leaving me
Then I’m leaving you first
So it won’t hurt
Seems like my loyalties
Are just letting me down
Just like everyone else
I’m out for myself
‘Bout the time you feel settled
Is the time when everything will change
So tie your knots loosely ‘cause
No one ever, ever stays the same
And if you’re leaving me
Then I’m leaving you first
So it won’t hurt

Secrets
Words and Music by Adam Lockwood
Say, say anything
Just hold your tongue
If you don’t mean it
Take, take my hand
And lead me
I need redeeming
When you see me, hold me close
Because
Darkness hides the dawn
Inside my wandering heart
And all my secrets
I can’t stand the light
For what it shows inside
And all my secrets
Where, where have you been
I’ve been needing
I need your healing
Wait, wait for me there
Beside the
Dark water’s edge
When you see me, hold me close
Because
Don’t wait up for me
I’m faltering way too easy
Breathe in and breathe out
It’s all I can do now
To keep my head above the ground

100 Years and 100 more
I’ve been lying at Death’s door
All their names I write in stone
And in their graves I lay their bones
Believe in me
Please believe in me
There’s no escape
On this your dying day
Now God’s child lend me your hand
And I’ll guide you to the promised land
Now I lay thee down to sleep
To gaze upon the glassy sea
Believe in me
Please believe in me
There’s no escape
On this your dying day
Let not fear guide your heart
‘twas insincere from the start
Believe in me
Please believe in me
There’s no escape
On this your dying day

Oh My Stars
words and music by C. Adam Lockwood
Baby, I’m waiting for all of this to end
Tell me a story so I can pretend
None of this is real, none of this is real
Come away with me
To the Sea of Tranquility
We’ll sail among the stars
Far as the eye can see
All of this is ours
The World is burning, let’s make our escape
I have to admit I’m tired of this place
Let’s get away from here, Let’s get away from here
Come away with me
To the Sea of Tranquility
We’ll sail among the stars
Far as the eye can see
All of this is ours
Oh my stars
Oh my stars
Oh my stars
Fall for you
3, 2, 1, ignition; we’re off and away
One cosmic bullet hurtling through space
Two hearts beat as one, two hearts beat as one.
Come away with me
To the Sea of Tranquility
We’ll sail among the stars
Far as the eye can see
All of this is ours

Family Tree
words and music by Adam Lockwood
I stand by the side of the road
Watch people come and go
You always emptied your canteen
I dig my roots in the sand
Hold on to what I can
And let the wind wash over me
Oh...
In the wind I sway
My branches bend and break
And tumble to the ground
The tempest tears my leaves
Stripped and bear I plead
For peace to rain down
And the winds of mercy carry my seeds
To a distant land far from me
I pray that love will forever watch over you
As you’ve cared for me
While other trees may fall
I will stand tall
Because you’ve given me a drink
When the storm has passed
We will see what lasts
And that love has carried me
And the winds of mercy carry my seeds
To a distant land far from me
I pray that love will forever watch over you
As you’ve cared for me

A Soul Divided
Words and Music by Adam Lockwood
I love and I hate
I’m asleep and awake
With nothing to soothe me
I give and I take
I’ve got nothing to say
But I scream it loudly
I’m up and I’m down
Like I’m riding on clouds
The Earth sinking beneath me
I’m loose and I’m bound
With my feet on the ground
But my mind escapes me
I’m a walking contradiction
Of fiction and fact
I’m a man with two faces
Both calm and conflicted
Look at me, a soul divided
Take a good look at me
With one breath I bless
And I curse with the next
My thoughts betray me
I kill and create
I’m honest and fake
Both fixed and fleeting
