When you write a song, the goal is not to convey the details of your life. You should write a memoir or something if that's what you're going to do.

My head's a carousel of pictures and The spinning never stops.

I really just want to be warm yellow light that pours over everyone I love.

I find that life is easier when it is just a blur With no details to confuse who or what or where I was So when the ending comes the full regret will be obscure

There is not a more melancholy object than a man who has his head turned with religious enthusiasm.

Walking through the city streets... Is it by mistake or design?

Only a true faith that applies God’s Word to everything-incl uding economics-will lead to the revival and reformation our culture needs so badly.

It is difficult to discuss... history.. it is more difficult to talk about today.. simple things…
