Now (I Am A Whole Half)
02:55
|

|
I I am the cold
You you’re never old
Me I am a whole
Half
Dancing on the street
I can’t be beat
Know you are the feet
For me
Holy is the highway
I I am alone
Dancing in the for
Rest

Tend The Fires
05:28
|

|
I’ll dampen the coals, you tend the fires
Til its for all or it’s for nobody
Only when we’re all dancing on the border
Its for no one til it’s for everybody

There Are No Diamonds

You fell asleep like
You didn’t even know it was a thing
You sang the song
And you never even knew you could sing
But it felt so right
So why’d it take so long
You’re right, everything still moves in the night
Everyone can move without light
Everywhere is never in sight
But I’ll fight, to keep it all, just mine
I know you will die someday
And I know my fate is the same
So many blues in the sky
I wouldn’t know how to describe
But it feels so right
That I’m gonna have to give it a try
And you know our fates are the same

Too Bad I'm A Cannon
03:38
|
|||
|
I killed someone And I don’t even know
if it was wrong, but I’d do it over again
And I fought the wars of these rich men
And I swore I’d see it to the end
These hearts and bodies were cold once more
Not sure We could tell them apart
Not sure for which is why we fought
I never knew what I could do
Until it’s done
Too bad I’m a cannon
I fought the wars of these rich men
And I swore I’d see it to the end
This heart and body will never be warm again
Too bad I’m just a cannon

Bloodshot
04:12

Your timings right, it’s the world that’s fucked up again
He says that he could love you, but he don’t wanna be just friends
You wish you were a little more patient, but you can’t wait on the wind
He says that he could love you, but he sure as hell don’t wanna be friends
When the body goes gray
When the body goes cold
She’s got this soul on fire
Your eyes were bright, it’s the sun that was bloodshot again
He says that he could love you, but he don’t wanna be just friends
You wish you were just a little more brave, but why try to stand up to the wind?
She says she doesn’t love him, but she sure as hell don’t want it to end

Sirens
03:33
|
|||
|
Tell me what you want
And I’ll tell you what I need
The garden’s on fire
Tell me that you’re cold
And I’ll tell you how it feels
This song is a siren

The Fourth of July
04:25
|
|||
|
When I’m alone that’s all right
If there’s a shadow I might cast
I know it’s from your light
And if I’m on your mind
Don’t let that weight hold you down
Because I know you will on mine
We were caught in between fireworks and the same as everything has ever been
We could see the colors explode with all of the potential within
When she turns to you and says We’ll never celebrate like this again
All the boys, all the girls
It’s the Fourth of July
All the girls, all the boys
It’s the Fourth of July
We were caught in the pouring rain and without anything to keep this fire going
We could see the confetti of fireworks falling between the rain
When he turns to you and says we’ll never be young like this again

Chrome
03:20
|
|||
|
You believe in God and greed
In hate and peace
But nothing in between
She sees grays in almost everything
She says she even sees
Streaks of silver in me
“But baby, I’m just
Chrome and dust
A shine before the rust
Baby I’m just chrome and smoke
In time we’ll all choke”
She still finds beauty in everything
She doesn’t even pine for the way
It used to be
You can’t fall asleep
It’s even harder to breathe
Even harder to keep
Silver from shining through the deep
“But baby I’m just chrome”

Got to the field, then I got the rose
That’s a feeling I never ever
Wanna let it go
There were highs and lows
And there were drinks I suppose
I got my finger on the trigger
of excess, it takes its toll
And we were almost to Monterey
You turned ‘round toward Mexico
I never thought I’d be the one who had to do the yelling never thought you’d have to be told
You always find a way to get back
You got to find a way to unload
You got to go out and get it
You got to go and get the rose
You got to go out and get it
You got to got to let it grow
You got to go out and get it
You got to let yourself lose control
You got to go out and get the rose
Just never ever ever let it go
You gotta find the field
Then you gotta find the rose
You better find a way to kneel
Fore your pride swallows us whole
Even though you see the stars, moon and me
Doesn’t mean we’re not getting old endlessly
And I want for you to find what I found me

Mistakes
04:12
|

|
This highway reminds me of a maze
Or scoliosis in its latter stages
As I drive through hills made by dynamite
She thinks this time she just might
Do you find faith in the bones that you break?
Do you find youth in the choices that you make?
She says “I don’t I don’t, it’s all been a mistake.”
The old man says “Oh darling, nothing is as great...“
This highway reminds me of the plague
Everyone is driving, dying a little on their way
As I drive past we might all explode in the night
I think this time I really think that I just might

Seems Skewed
03:19
|
|||
|
There is faith. And there is form.
There’s too many ways to die,
But only one way to be born
Seems skewed, seems odd
This is as far as any of us have got
There’s a ton of ways to fail
But only one way to not
I’m pretty sure there’s a god
And she’d be pissed if she knew what we got
In our hearts and what we’ve become
We’re the only thing that’ll make us undone
You contact your brother
Or email your father
When you’re leaving forever
Or you might not even bother
That you’re leaving the leaches
Abandon the leashes
We wish you weren’t leaving
What will we do on the weekends?

Ghosts
03:27
|
|||
|
I saw a ghost in the body of a hungry boy
He told me he don’t wanna be here no more
I saw that fire, in the belly of an older soul
Telling me he don’t feel like he’s ready to go
So don’t swear like you did before
Cause I know your heart’s a holy war
The only difference between the ghosts and you
You still got the time to choose
And I saw that anger building in a gentle heart
What was once beautiful being torn apart
I read of this kind of hate only in books before
But now I see it strewn across your face, oh lord
