Colorado Water 05:19
lyrics
buy track
I fell into the water but I forgot how to swim In the cold Colorado water and these mountains comin’ down all over me I’m running out, running out of room. I’m running out, running out of rope And when I finally woke up I knew I had to return To the cold Colorado water and these mountains Comin’ down all over me I’m running out, running out of room I’m running out, running out of road And all of these memories Buried and burning Calling me back To where I first became alive I can still remember the time, like it was yesterday In the way back of an old Suburban Just watching the mountains fade away I’m running out, running out of room I’m running out, running out of rope

Feel So Good 04:03
lyrics
buy track
I feel so good right now--So glad that you came around I feel so good right now --Like I could never come down I've seen the face they wear-- I've felt the heart of fear But I feel so good right now--So glad that you came around And if there’s nothing in the end Then why are we even here? And if there’s nothing in the end It’s alright with me I’ll just lay here in your arms till I wake up I dream of the ocean--I dream of you and me Swimming in harmony with the angels and the aliens and all of the great unseen I feel so good right now--I hope I never come down And if there’s nothing in the end Then why are we even here? And if there’s nothing in the end It’s alright with me I’ll just float here in your arms till I sink back down

Down The Shore 05:55
lyrics
buy track
Hey hey Chico--Fuel up the Impala Roll down the windows Turn up the Stereo We're almost there I can smell the salt in the air Down the Shore Stop down at Reggie's Malt Liquor and Wine Haven't got the time We're almost there I can smell the salt in the air Down the Shore My skins on fire yea, it's alright And these South Jersey girls they're alright But don't look twice Don't want to fight not tonight..... Down the Shore We're almost there I can smell the salt in the air Down the Shore Down the shore Where we all want more and everybody is high and we don't ask why and we throw our dreams, out into the sea and we wait in the sand, till they roll back in and the hands we shake....they never break Yea, from right now....till the end of time and when your feeling down when your feeling low come on lets go....... where the Sun will always Rise Down the Shore

Woke Up In Detroit 04:50
lyrics
buy track
I dreamt I was in a Woody Allen movie In the middle of New York City Just about to win her heart Flying thru Central Park But I woke up in Detroit Now I'm just as cold and vacant As all of these crumbling buildings Just waiting to turn to dust Turn to dust and rise again But I woke up in Detroit Throwing Flares up to the sky Hear them whistle --- Feel them cry Throwing Flares up to the Dead Grey Sky Lord why?? I used to feel like living I used to hear birds singing I used to feel like giving Aint nothing left but Sin When you wake up in Detroit Yea, I woke up in Detroit

I'm late....late for work again and I'm stuck here behind the Longest Train I think I've ever seen and my Boss....yeah the Boss...he's on my back again and i guess last night...I had one to many...one to many again and I'm watching the railroad cars like the days of my life... one by one pass me by and I'm stuck here behind the Longest Train I think I've ever seen And my mind jumps to the rail and I'm on some lonesome desert trail Lord knows if I could I would bail anywhere....anywhere but here Well my ex-wife she got the money, she got the house, she got the kids and I'm bringing home about minimum wage, tell how the hell I'm supposed to live but don't get me wrong I see 'em when I can try to make the ends meet....and be a man but I'm stuck here behind the Longest Train I think I've ever seen And my mind jumps to the rail and I'm on some lonesome desert trail Lord knows if I could I would bail anywhere....anywhere but here Lord I'm fading....feels like I'm fading away I'm late...late for work again and I'm stuck here behind the Longest Train I've ever seen

Don't Let Me Go 03:53
lyrics
buy track
A single blade of grass...in a field of broken glass I see your reflection staring back into the empty past I want to dive down with the sun...into the waves that crash upon the rocks that turn to sand between your toes where do you stand Standing on the edge...of your happiness I feel your shadow fade into the end..the emptiness I want to dive down with the sun...into the waves that crash upon the rocks that turn to sand between your toes where do you stand Please don't leave me alone...Please don't let me go...ohh Please don't leave me alone...Please don't let me.......Go

Midnight 04:44
lyrics
buy track
Midnight falls into your arms And you hold on...waiting for the dawn And my body...and my mind...and your face is gone Who is this that I feel?...Is it you?...Is it real? And these shifting shapes...they stretch me back...to 1983 Waves of sound blow back the leaves Echos of Bunnymen in the fields Shadows...Silhouettes They run away with our regrets And the rest of my life is spent...trying to get back to space Where the weight of planets start to drift These visions wont erase....

Barricade 02:49
lyrics
buy track
Twisted---buried---looking through the door Afraid to cross the unknown Tuning the peg---ready to snap Close my eyes---the bottom’s gone and we're tearing through the Barricade Looking deep into the serpent’s eyes The mirror shatters the truth behind The attic’s locked but I don’t care The attic’s locked kick the fucker down Tearing through the Barricade Gulf war vet with a pistol to his head Thinking about what they did Never know the pain inside Nothing left but fear and doubt When we're breaking through the barricade

I've been climbing a diminished scale My eyes are torched....my skin is pale and I don't know if I can get out of bed but I'm still breathing...yea I'm still alive I'm still breathing...No I ain't, I ain't dead yet No No No....Lord I don't know........why I'm afraid of the world and the voices I hear in my head and I don't know if I can wake up today 'Cause this life is a hammer and I am the nail but you....your the blood...yea your my savior I'm still breathing...yea I'm still alive I'm still breathing...No I ain't, I ain't dead yet No No No....Lord I don't know........why Yea and all the booze and all the pills And all the thrills and all the spills And all the joy and all the shame And all the love and all the pain And the sores and all the whores And all the shit I did before I got three legs.....Yea, I got three legs

I'll Be Waiting 05:13
lyrics
buy track
I found you there hiding on the shelf Took you down and I brought you home and I tore away the Cellophane and I put the needle down into your vein I run my fingers through the grooves in your brain Round and round like the records that play In my head and in my bones... from along time ago....oh... I can taste the wine on your voice as it pours out of the speaker and I swear I'm drunk and you know where I'll be...You know I'll be... Now the crackles and the pops of an imperfect World Make the perfect backdrop for the coming of your Ghost And you know... where I will be I'll be Waiting...Yea...I'll be waiting for you When the Moon....splashes into the Sea Yea, I'll be Waiting.... for you to ride the wave back to me..
