      If you know and want to share, you can tell us who wrote the lyrics to what song. Or, if you are looking to ask about who wrote a particular song, you can post your question here.

      Wondering if the lyrics to In the Eye’s of Thieves, were written by Brian?

        Pretty sure that they were. I find it's relatively easy to tell who wrote what lyrics. Each songwriter has a particular thematic focus and style. I'm not sure how to describe it beyond that. You can hear each one of their voices come through in the lyrics.

        Generally speaking, Jordan sings the songs he wrote and likewise Brian. I'm not certain who penned Leave The Light On, but given my earlier statement on thematic content and style I'd say it's Jordan.

        I know Beautiful Day is Red's. That is, I think, the only one that he wrote lyrics to. Chuck wrote My Road, Mind's Unchained, Radio, and of course, Slip and Squander. This isn't an exhaustive list and I'm guessing on most of these.

          Pretty sure Eyes is Brian (music and lyrics.) And @damian Jordan wrote leaf the light on

          As far as I know the people who have written lyrics for originals are

          Brian, Red, Jordan
          Chuck writes all the sappy shit
          Jaryd Smart (childhood friend of Jordan's) wrote the 'chant' part in Walls

            As well as Brian's brother, Geoff, who wrote/helped write Diana and Legend, I believe.

                I think it might be Chuck's but I have yet to find evidence, although I remember him posting about it. He posts all of his poems to his website so it's just a matter of searching to find the poem there.
