And in the morning when the sun rise. Look in the water, see the blue sky. As if heaven has been laid there at our feet.

And me I'm in the bathroom crying out my eyelids because it's hard to be a man when you're scared, just like a little kid.

Love's an excuse to get hurt and to hurt. Do you like to hurt? I do, I do then hurt me.

I liked the idea of having a record that's reggae-influenced but not musically, just lyrically. I think there's so much about Rasta culture that's interesting. Just the idea of preaching one-ness, that we're all in this together. Which I suppose is at the root of most any religion. You're gonna find it, if taken in the right context.

If the world could remain within a frame like a painting on the wall, I think we'd see the beauty then and stand staring in awe.

When everything is lonely I can be my best friend.

And your eyes must do some raining if you're ever gonna grow / When crying don't help, you can't compose yourself / It's best to compose a poem, an honest verse of longing / Or a simple song of hope.
