All I Can See Lyrics


I want to walk through this doorway
I want to open my mind
I want to pledge my allegiance to all I can find.
I want a car that will crash through the barriers
To a road no one knows.
I want to feel less control,
Want to bend and I want to land far from home.
The revolution of the earth around the sun
Is the perfect lesson of how it should be.
So if I cannot learn
To journey and return,
To never rest till I've seen all I can see
I want to learn a completely new language,
One I don't understand.
I want to help someone lost, someone helpless,
With the strength of my hand.

I want to come to the base of a statue built
Before they counted the years,
And there I'll fall with my face in my hands and cry
And feel their hope in my tears.
The revolution of the earth around the sun
Is the perfect lesson of how it should be.
So if I cannot learn,
To journey and return,
To never rest till I've seen all I can see
Train rides and pastures collidin
Colors and customs I've never seen
I know I, yes I know I,
I know I will stumble
But time is precious my friend.
Those who journey can easily understand,
The more they see the more they'll learn,
The more that they will be.
So this I swear to you, and this I swear to me,
I'll never rest till I've seen all I can see.
No, I'll never rest till I've seen all I can see.
I want to know where the strength of a person lies,
In their past or their future.
Is it in the way that they hurt or they love themselves
Or is it all an illusion?
I want to crawl from this skin that I'm painted in
Body, please let it give.
I want to find the creator of all good things
And ask what it means to live

Brendan James is an New York-based Irish singer-songwriter originally from Derry, New Hampshire, but currently residing in New York City. In the fall of 2007, Brendan self-released his EP The Ballroom Break-In produced by Mikal Blue, who has recorded with Colbie Caillat. The album charted on iTunes Top 100. The Ballroom Break-In is symbolic of the days when he first moved to New York -- he could not afford practice space so he would sneak into hotel ballrooms to practice on their pianos. After the success of his EP, James was signed to Decca Records. Brendan released his debut full-length album, The Day is Brave, through Universal/Decca Records on June 3, 2008, in the United States, and on June 17, 2008 in Canada. It was also produced by Mikal Blue. It debuted on the Top 10 Billboard Heatseeker Charts, with Newsweek, Entertainment Weekly, and celebrity blogger Perez Hilton all praising his debut effort and was ranked as the tenth most selling folk-rock album on iTunes. "Hero's Song," appeared on the soundtrack album Body of War: Songs that Inspired an Iraq War Veteran. "The Sun Will Rise" appeared in the ABC drama Private Practice in 2007, and the episode "The Bone That Blew" in the FOX series Bones.
