But you've got to peel the skin to get the fruit
And while one's living high another's grieving
But what's sweet by morning is bitter by the evening
Oh - What's sweet by morning is bitter by the evening.“

Song lyrics, There Will Be a Light (2004)

Got a head full of thought crimes and a number with no name
Got an eleventh hour Jesus and a mouth full of blame
A casket lined with silver dollars and a number with no name.“

Into the Colors.
Song lyrics, Lifeline (2007)

„I believe in a few things:
God the devil and love.
'Cause I've looked up from the bottom
And I've stared down from above.I have faith in a few things:
Divinity and grace.
But even when I'm on my knees
I know the devil prays.And you're working your way
From the ground on down.“

„In my life I have been blessed
In my life I have been cursed
I have lived the best of times
I have suffered the worst
Do you know which road you're traveling?
Do you know where you want to be?
With so many roads to travel,
There's just one can set you free.“

With My Own Two Hands.
Song lyrics, Diamonds on the Inside (2003)

„Could've sworn I heard you say amen this morning, showing some kind of sign that you believe
Did it fall from your tongue without warning or just another trick to fall from your sleeve?
Did I hear you say that you believe in angels? I guess I bring the devil out in you.
But we can both remove our halos 'cause even an angel needs love too.
Even angels need love too.“
