VERTICAL HORIZON - Shackled
Shackled
For so long my life’s been sewn up tight inside your hold
And it leaves me there without a place to call my own
I know now what shadows can see
There’s no point in running ‘less you run with me
It’s half the distance through the open door
Before you cut me down
Again
Let me introduce you to the end
And I feel the cold wind blowing beneath my wings
It always leads me back to suffering
But I will soar until the wind whips me down
Leaves me beaten on unholy ground again
So tired now of paying my dues
I start out strong but then I always lose
It’s half the distance before you leave me behind
It’s such a waste of time
[Chorus]
‘Cause my shackles
You won’t be
And my rapture
You won’t believe
And deep inside you will bleed for me
So here I slave inside of a broken dream
Forever holding on to splitting seams
So take your piece and leave me alone to die
I don’t need you to keep my faith alive
I know now what trouble can be
And why it follows me so easily
It’s half the distance through the open door
Before you shut me down
Again
Let me introduce you to the end
[Chorus]
Though you know you care
[Chorus]
And my laughter
You won’t hear
The faster
I disappear
And time will burn your eyes to tears
VERTICAL HORIZON - All Of You
All Of You
So you say
I’m too quiet
Holding things
Up in my head
I say so much
But you don’t buy it
I don’t want to wake up
Alone in my head
Oh say that you’ll never go now
Don’t go
Don’t go

VERTICAL HORIZON - Give You Back
Give You Back
I need to know if you were real
‘Cause I’ve been known to get it wrong
When the memory comes
I’ll say I’m always in the dark
You got me now
[Chorus]
I want to give you back
I want to give you back
Somewhere out of here
I want to give you
I want to give you
I want to give you back

VERTICAL HORIZON - Send It Up
Send It Up
Oh you make me lay down
Oh you make me forget I am here
Oh you’re making me safe now
Oh you make the faces disappear
I’m all right by the way
Everyone saves the day
Sometimes I feel it
[Chorus]
Send it up
Send it up now
Send it up

VERTICAL HORIZON - Miracle
Miracle
It’s taken much too long
To get it right
Would it be so wrong
To maybe find someone
A miracle
And all you really need
Is everything you could never be
And so you’d give it all
For a miracle
[Chorus]
Is there a trace
Inside her face
Of a lonely miracle
And so you wait
And lie awake
For a lonely miracle

VERTICAL HORIZON - Finding Me
Finding Me
I don’t think you notice
When you see my face
I guess you’re waiting
To spin me around again
Wheels I guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get
But you’re coming back again
You don’t mean to waste my time
But you’re coming back so
