Make the water into red wine
And pour it out to fill the sea
Turn the pebbles into diamonds
This is all you think of me
So a prisoner I’ve become
Of your laws that weigh a ton
Your book I can’t escape
As I try to stop the blame from falling down on everyone
Ask my Father for forgiveness
They know not what they do to me
They follow principles and shadows
They’re always deaf in hearing me
So a prisoner I’ve become
Of your laws that weigh a ton
Your books I can’t escape
As I try to stop the blame from pouring down from everyone
It’s quiet here in the silence
The cold night enveloping my breath
I know they’ll think it was my Father
Who sent me to a painful death
They’ll make up legends and instructions
Their books are idols on the throne
I’ll tell them how it’s truly finished
How death and hell I’ve overcome
But it’s hard to be a savior
And find what now is lost
And it’s hard to lead the people
When you’re nailed to the cross

My Resolution

No matter the season
I'll paint with cerulean
Halfway between blue and green
The road less traveled
Where magic does battle
I will not just play 5 to lead
In a realm that's major not minor
I will make my way to find her
She's my muse and my song
This is my resolution
No matter the instrument
Guitar or piano
I'll find a way to speak what's hidden
The minor 11
Not just minor 7
I'll even bring you chords unbidden
In a realm that's major not minor
I will make my way to find her
She's my muse and song
She's my resolution
I will find her
She's my muse and my song
I'm gonna find her
She's my muse and my song
This is my resolution

I will know you with my hands
As you reach the dreamed of lands
You will know and understand
I will hold you steady and firm
As you glimpse through hidden stained glass walls
You will learn with me love's slow burn
Gentle yet strong
Patience and wild hunger
Come now surrender your love
You will know me as you drift from sleep
I will be consuming and deep
You will find your hidden treasure keys
I will play your heart sweet melodies
Songs of earthquake ecstasy
You will ache as you dream of me
Gentle yet strong
Patience and wild hunger
Come now surrender your love

Keeper of Dreams

Life is a paradox
And it's troubling my fragile mind
It feels like the sun is getting farther and farther away
Life has me paranoid
Anxious and paralyzed
It feels like my heart is beating softer and softer each day
Be gone, J. Evans Comfort Zone
I'll find a way to solve and untangle
The lies and these illusions
And walk toward the source of Lux Aeterna
I wanna fly so free
Over the seen horizon
I wanna dance with you
The Keeper of Dreams
You hold the key
Once I was just a child
My domain was the magic realms
I traveled beyond the visible wardrobe doors
I'm like an exiled king
Often dead in this apathy
But never again will I fly this white flag and be a pawn
Be gone, J. Evans Comfort Zone
I'll find a way to solve and untangle
The lies and these illusions
And walk toward the source of Lux Aeterna
I wanna fly so free
Over the seen horizon
I wanna dance with you
The Keeper of Dreams
You hold the key

My face against this wall
Waiting for the call
To step beyond the door
And to return to our home where we stay
To wipe the tears from your eyes
In an iron cage
Many miracles away
My faith won't disappear
We were made to stay
We're not the kind that break
My thoughts again return
To prisons made of my words
I never got to explain
Without any context they sang their parade
And then drove me to the grave
In an iron cage
Many miracles away
My faith won't disappear
We were made to stay
We're not the kind that can (ever) break
So now it's been a year
This lonely life in here
I dream of the smiles
Of my wife and children in morning sunlight
'Cause they lied - I'm alive!

Hallelujah

Your kingdom grows
As strongholds crumble
Your mercy for me (flows)
Hallelujah
Our old men dream
Our young men see visions
You speak through me
Hallelujah
We're free indeed
You ran to redeem us
Eternal light in me
Hallelujah
