Well MJ put up something on her blog re David Cook's album and lyrics:

MJ wrote this and she isn't known to go overboard for anyone in particular:
I’ve got a couple of leaks here you kids might enjoy from the David Cook fan boards. Thanks to the peeps who brought these tidbits to my attention.

A poster at DC-42 with inside access to RCA was able to hear David Cook’s upcoming album (out 11/18) online and posted lyrics for “Bar Ba Sol”, “Lie”, “Permanent”, “Come Back To Me” and “Heroes.” I’ve compiled them HERE. She wrote them down as she heard them, so they probably aren’t perfect.

What strikes me is how deeply personal these lyrics are. They aren’t generic, cookie-cutter pop song lyrics. The themes range from fame (”Mr. Sensitive) Letting go of love (”Lie”, “Come Back to Me”) to love of family, (”Heroes”, Permanent). There’s real emotional heft in these songs, giving Cook the opportunity to deliver some powerful vocals. “Permanent,” about those hours at the bedside of a dying loved one, is particularly intense.
This is part of the press release in which David said:
“We recorded ‘Permanent’ in two takes and everyone in the room was crying,” Cook recalls. “I actually had to leave at one point because it was so emotional. As a musician, any time you can create something where the end result is exactly what’s in your head, well there’s a heaviness to that moment and it overwhelmed me. I’ve been writing songs for ten years and that was the first time I’d felt it. I think there’s an honesty throughout the record that culminates in that song.”

PERMANENT

Is this the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my broken promise that you’ll never see me cry
And everything, it will surely change even if I tell you I won’t go away today
Will you think that you’re all alone
When no one’s there to hold your hand?
And all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary rest your head
I’m permanent

I know he’s living in hell every single day
And so I ask oh god is there some way for me to take his place
And when they say it’s all touch and go I wish I could make it go away
But still you say
Will you think that you’re all alone when no one’s there to hold your hand?
When all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary, rest your head
I’m permanent
I’m permanent

Is the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my promise that you’ll never see me cry


HEROES

As the sun goes down in front of me
It reminds of me of where I want to be
With you and you alone
Hold me in like you were made for me
I’m losing faith in gravity
I just need to let you know
And I just need to let you know

I’m not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing

You’re still standing

You know the world’s confusing, I don’t care
I crawl into your atmosphere
I know you’ll make it right
You’re all I need to know

I’m not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still sanding

I believe that you can save me
And you’ll never let me fall.
I’m not going to come down
I believe in what you’ve shown me
There’s ahero in us all

I’m not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up

PERMANENT moved me the first time i heard the 30 sec clips...i was in tears...i am crying now that lyrics is here...thank u for posting.

Thank you for those lyrics. I can only imagine how we will hear the pain in his voice when we get the full songs. I'll be crying, knowing what these are about. This is why David is not just another singer making it big. I tell people about his heart and soul. Oh, this man moves me.
