Alabaster Heart - Scott Orr 04:02
lyrics
buy track
She put up a wall of alabaster ‘round her heart. Dense enough to keep me out, but let the light shine in. Even when I asked her, she could not recite her part. She’d just cry. She described herself as needing more, but could not say What it was she needed - what her plan was - why she cared. Even when I asked her, she could not confront the truth. She was scared. It looks so hard, like stone and steel, but still the light shone in. But once the light went in, it’d stay right there. A heart like that cannot survive to say just where it’s been. Or even if it’s been anywhere. INSTRUMENTAL She could not control the circumstances she was giv’n. So, instead, she let it die, she let it crash and burn. Even when I asked her, she could not describe the pain. She’d just burn. It looks so hard, like stone and steel, but still the light shone in. But once the light went in, it’d stay right there. A heart like that cannot survive to say just where it’s been. Or even if it’s been anywhere.

Steve Lindsley - Comfortable Catastrophe 02:46
lyrics
buy track
The road is long, my patience’s thin Will I go where I’ve already been For the first time So very far and always near Such a mystery that’s crystal clear Here we go again Just a comfortable catastrophe It’s where I always seem to be If you’re wondering what you’ll find in me It’s a comfortable catastrophe Every day seems to bring An endless litany of who I’ve been And who I want to be So why must I second guess My confidence and my thankfulness Another time Just a comfortable catastrophe It’s where I always seem to be If you want to know what reigns in me It’s a comfortable catastrophe Whoa… Dare to live inside this space Whoa… Come and join the human race Never knowing what happens next Good or bad, we’re someone else’s guest Feeling right at home It’s a comfortable catastrophe Come on and join the fun - you’ll see Things are closer than they seem to be A comfortable catastrophe From now on to eternity It’s a comfortable catastrophe

J. Dale Walker - Losing Place 02:25
lyrics
buy track
Sure has been nice Seeing you again Though I can’t quite recall your name S’all been entwined My mind ain’t what it’s been Come on in, child, it looks like rain My room’s a mess The lady ain’t been by She works from 7 to 3 Got me a garden The pansies are in bloom Got me a stump there for a seat Spend my time there Praying for God’s grace
I like to call it my losing place It’s been on my mind Is that what’s happened to me Have I been put here for someone to find Sometimes, it’s true I get awful confused Keep on forgetting things I should know No one around Just husks put aside, askew Here we can share our last losing place
