Yellow moon shining like fool's gold
Slipping soflty into the sea Memories how they linger Guess we weren't strong enough, you and me Still I look to find a reason Search my mind for a vision Hide from the answers as the questions Burn in my head [Chorus:] Shining like a fool's moon Shining like a fool's moon Burning out way too soon Shining like a fool's moon I wish I'd known you as a child I wish I'd known you when my heart ran wild Never knew how much I'd miss those dream-filled days [Chorus] And when all is said and done My loneliness has just begun But you make it look so easy Never winning but never caring if you lose [Chorus] |

On the banks of the deep end
Where your soul is your best friend Searching for a reason To go astray Wild dreams turn to nightmares Silver clouds turn to golden stairs And everything that you used to know Is slipping away Here I've got my puzzle-piece Only got it for a short term lease No time for asking No going back to get hurt I take a little from the mixture Try to fit it into the picture Got a place where you're standing Dig your shoes into the dirt Trying hard to get back Runnin' on the stones Put you on my shoulders We can be the only one See the world's still spinning 'round Gettin' dizzy when we look There's a reason to be home There's a feeling when you smile But it feels like it might take over This feeling deep inside And there's a distance down the line Far away from the station We can leave it all behind On a rolling creation Sit away from the window And lock the door Can't you learn from the last time And the time before See the world's still spinning 'round Gettin' dizzy when we look Got to leave town To see the yellow flowers bloom Sun going down It's gonna be rising soon On the banks of the deep end Twisted as a riverbend Searching for a reason to go astray You couldn't hire twenty-five men To do what the man could do Just the sound of his walking Could split the whole damn town in two Into the night full of shadows He still walks when the thunder rolls This river ain't shallow Reminds us that the bell still tolls Bears in the kitchen Tigers on TV The singer's pretending That this song's for me See the world's still spinning 'round Gettin' dizzy when we look You took a wrong turn Down by the waterline I heard they had to drag you off the sand Find a dune and the wind will miss you Hold on to a piece of dry land Got to hold on to a piece of dry land Got to hold on to a piece of dry land On the banks of the deep end Where I lost my best friend Searching for a reason to go astray |

Last night
I saw a fire burning on The palace lawn. O'er the land, The humble subjects watched in mixed Emotion. Who is burnin'? Who is burnin'? Effigy. Who is burnin'? Who is burnin'? Effigy. Last night I saw the fire spreadin' to The palace door. Silent majority Weren't keepin' quiet Anymore. Who is burnin'? Who is burnin'? Effigy. Who is burnin'? Who is burnin'? Effigy. Last night I saw the fire spreadin' to The countryside. In the mornin', Few were left to watch The ashes die. Who is burnin'? Who is burnin'? Effigy. Who is burnin'? Who is burnin'? Effigy. Why? Why? Why? Effigy. |

Peeping round the door I got a big surprise
Couldn't see a thing but open skies They've taken her away where is she now Wish that she was here wish she'd hold my hand Maybe she could laugh maybe understand Why was I so cruel where is she now Acting like a fool had to make her cry Maybe I'm a Leo but I ain't a lion I'm hurting oh so bad, I want her now |

Billy dresses like Billie with an "ie"

She's watching as they take him away He'll be better off behind those walls anyway It's the same price - anyway Same price - you have to pay People put you down That's where you're gonna' stay It's the same price - Same price People put you down that's where you're gonna' stay It's the same price Billy dresses like Billie with an "ie" Sometimes in the evening But nobody seems to care Nobody thought he was sane anyway |

Soulshine
When you can't find the light That guides you through a cloudy day When the stars ain't shinin' bright And you feel like you've lost you're way When the candle lights of home Burn so very far away Well you got to let your soul shine Just like my daddy used to say He used to say soul shine It's better than sunshine It's better than moonshine Damn sure better than rain Well now people don't mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine till the break of day I grew up thinkin' that I had it made Gonna make it on my own But life can take the strongest man And make him feel so alone Now sometimes I feel a cold wind Blowin' through my achin' bones I think back to what my daddy said He said 'Boy, in the darkness before the dawn' Let your soul shine It's better than sunshine It's better than moonshine Damn sure better than rain Yeah now people don't mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Shine till the break of day Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness Like a woman has robbed him of his very soul A woman too, God knows, you feel like this (yes you can) And when your world seems cold You got to let your spirit take control Let your soul shine It's better than sunshine It's better than moonshine Damn sure better than rain Lord now people don't mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Yeah, shine on and on and on Oh, it's better than sunshine It's better than moonshine Damn sure better than rain Yeah now people don't mind We all get this way sometimes Got to let your soul shine Yeah, shine on and on and on Shine till the break of day |

Been lying here for hours
Can't get my eyes to close Can't get one moments peace To save my doggone soul I've been doing more than drinking' Trying' to ease my pain But everywhere I go, somebody speaks your name All my friends keep on asking' Boy what's wrong with you I say I'm worried, worried down with the blues Tried to be a good man Worked my fingers to the bone And you returned the favor By wreckin' up my happy home You played so many dirty tricks 'Til I lost my faith in you Now you want me to take you back What's a poor man supposed to do Worried down with the blues Oh, yes I am Worried down with the blues Feel like I was born to lose I used to walk with pride With my head held high Now I'm staring down at my shoes Yes, I'm worried, worried down with the blues You made me turn my back On my very best friends And when my back was turned You were messin' around with them Still I'd give up everything To have you back by my side 'Cuz in the cold, cold night When I reach for you All I'm holdin' is my foolish pride Worried down with the blues Oh, yes I am Worried down with the blues Feel like I was born to lose I used to walk with pride With my head held high Now I'm staring down at my shoes Yes I'm worried, worried down with the blues |

Mysterious - blown in with the night
All this beauty captured in a frame Visibly shaken but never stirred - drives them insane I see the way she plays her men - and I know I've got to know her name She's so beautifully broken - shaped by the wind Dangerously twisted - Here I go again I see the way she casts her spell - It's like drowning in moonlight Discards them when she's done - they're lost in her twilight I watch her move from star to star and I wonder why, why it feels so right She's so beautifully broken - you can hardly see the flaw Especially from a distance - which is always how I fall Why do I fall for the dangerous ones - the ones that never learned to let go And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her When she's already been so beautifully broken Why do I fall for the dangerous ones - the ones that Don't know how to let go And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her When she's already been so beautifully broken She's so beautifully broken - shaped by the wind Dangerously twisted - Here I go again Here I go again ************************************************************* Warren Haynes Danny Lewis |

You sit there staring
With your little girl smile You got it all figured out So many others You thought they were like me You don't know In this world of fear and desperation You seem to have it all in your hands So used to holding things - holding things But no one ever made you understand (chorus) So come on and tear me down Tear me down Take anything you need - anything Tear me down Tear me down I know what you want So come on and tear me down So many people headed the wrong way Me, I've been - and I'm going again Windsurfing on a fast train Chances are none and slim You think you're the only one In the whole world That ever danced upon the razor's edge I don't need to pour more fuel on the fire But if that's what you want come on (chorus) |

Ain't seen a night, things work out right, go by.
Things on my mind, and I just don't have the time, and it don't seem right. Ain't seen a day, that I don't hear people say, they know they're gonna' die. This may seem a little bit crazy, but I don't think you should be so lazy. If you think you've heard this before, well, stick around I'm gonna' tell you more. One just like the other, sin's a good man's brother, but is that right? You tell me that I don't, then I say I won't, but then I might. You said this is the way it's supposed to be, but it just don't seem right to me, and that's outta' sight. Some folks need an education, don't give up, or we'll loose the nation. You say we need a revolution? It seems to be the only solution. |

I see the faces laughing-are they laughing at me?
I know now where the traps lie-are they lying for me? Only love can save you-but I don't feel it I'm just a poor soul I'm weak-but I gotta stand tall Trying not to fall into the abyss I hear the sirens calling-are they calling for me? I feel the tumblers falling-are the falling on me? Only truth can save you-but I don't remember it I'm just a poor soul-I'm weak-But I gotta stand tall Trying not to fall into the abyss Trying not to fall into the abyss Where are all the others that fell before me-will I see them again? And where is the strength that I've known for so long-is it failing me now? Nothing left to save you I'm just a poor soul-I'm weak-but I gotta stand tall Trying not to fall into the abyss Trying not to fall into the abyss Trying not to fall into the abyss Trying not to fall into the abyss |

Only the darkness can keep you warm
On an evil night like this Are you looking for some one To give your little arm a twist Everybody needs some danger sometimes I'm no different Just think of me as your equal I won't undress you I won't hold you down I won't stick a knife in your back The way you did that clown Can you feel it - can you taste it Yeah, you must've seen it coming Surely you could've guessed The game is up I'm gonna' take you down No more crying I think it's time to confess You better pray for a miracle Or you better pray this never ends I, myself, can play the victim I'll do whatever the part demands You saw me watching you You had time to run Ain't it enough that you torture me You had to go for his gun Can you feel it - can you taste it Yeah, you must've seen it coming Surely you could've guessed The game is up I'm gonna' take you down No more crying I think it's time to confess You won't see no bright lights burning But you'll feel the heat This is what happens When strangers turn to lovers turn to enemies Can you feel it - can you taste it Don't look at me that way With that blood on your dress The game is up I'm gonna' take you down No more crying I think it's time to confess |

My spirit sleeps like a sunset trapped behind the clouds
Dying to awake Bright lights shine somewhere over the mountain Much too far away I don't know myself today I can feel me slip away World of confusion Getting darker everyday Morning comes - still I don't feel welcome even in my own skin Feeling kinda numb like the earth after the storm I'm learning to breathe again Bleeding softly on your floor I can't take it anymore World of confusion Getting darker everyday Reality escapes me as I try to do the same Once you saved me for a while till I fell again Did you see your God rising in the smoke? Did he tell you that it was your time? Silence falls uncovered like the truth Naked bathed in God's own light World of confusion Getting darker everyday |

Slow happy boys deal with their frustration
Different than everybody else Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else Well I tried and I tried To get you off my mind Yeh you better believe it's true Tried everything to stop the pain But it all comes back down to you And now I try to lose myself Without your help Oh but it just don't seem to do no good Cause I cannot help myself, cannot help myself Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else I'm gonna keep on trying To make it through the day As if I had my right mind Try not to think about doing without you Anyway, ain't no use in crying Yeh but here I am drowning in a hurricane Oh, but I can't help but wonder What the world would be like Without you in my life Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else For thirty three years I've been on this earth I plan on being here thirty three more After all this time Still, my only crime is to be riding in style with an illegal smile Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else Slow happy boys deal with their frustration Different than everybody else |

I must leave you for a season
Go out logging that hardwood timber Hardwood timber that grows so low In the forest of Fennario Tell me what you need to live, love Do you ask that you might own Keep my blue-eyed hound to guard you I will make my way alone I will not return in winter If I be not back by fall Seek me when this small sunflower Stands above the garden wall Fare you well and I would not weep Bid you tend your prayers to keep Hill by dale now I must go To the forest of Fennario Nine-month blew with sleeted rain And still he came not back again Summoned she the hound to go To seek him in Fennario He came back the fated day To find his lady gone away Made haste to follow in her track Where she could go but not turn back The blue-eyed hound at her side did bay While fast her breath did fade away She cried out: "Turn, my love, and go I would not you see me so" Fare you well and I would not weep Bid you tend your prayers to keep Hill by dale now I must go To the forest of Fennario I shall not turn, I shall not yield Oh, selfsame serpent sting my heel That bleeds my lady's blood away Beside the blue-eyed hound to lay Angels sing their souls to sleep Four winds grace their breath to keep Up above yon garden wall Stands the sunflower, straight and tall Fare you well and I would not weep Bid you tend your prayers to keep Hill by dale now I must go To the forest of Fennario |

All I ask from anyone
Is that they ask nothing from me Stared so long at the future That I'm blind to reality Come a time will watch our lives Slip into the sea All I ask from anyone Is that they ask nothing from me Dreams fly by like a thousand railroad trains Egos steadfast like mountains in our brains Those of us who let go will be swallowed Left here to die Do not look to the sky It will not rain for you Do not look to strangers They won't help you through Only chance you got When you hear those war dogs bark Is to be one up on your brother Like a Blind man in the dark Face to face we will meet again But never eye to eye Meanwhile, in your mania Your four wings touch the sky Fly too high the wax will melt And you'll fall down to your knees All I ask from you my friend Is that you ask nothing from me Dreams fly by like a thousand railroad trains Egos steadfast like mountains in our brains Those of us who let go will be swallowed Left here to die Do not look to the sky It will not rain for you Do not look to strangers They won't help you through Only chance you got When you hear those war dogs bark Is to be one up on your brother Like a Blind man in the dark Do not look to the sky It will not rain for you Do not look to strangers They won't help you through Only chance you got When you hear those war dogs bark Is to be one up on your brother Like a Blind man Blind man in the dark Blind man in the dark |

Bigelow the gigolo had no where else to go
His sad eyes had seen it all Scarred and lonely, tough as nails Open your heart when all else fails Wear the veil and the Trojan-horse smile Looking back on yesteryear Seems like maybe you missed your calling But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling And you have fallen down Down from the heavens Stuck out in the desert Amazing grace such a lonely place For heroes like you and me Fallen down, just like a shooting star With no fallen angel standing by To carry you away Target practice with other people’s lives Hit a few right between the eyes But most of the time You were wounded by the ricochet You say "play to win boys, never play to lose Long as your playing boys, you’re bullet-proof" But think about it, you’re bleeding to death anyway You have fallen down Down from the heavens Stuck out in the desert Amazing grace such a lonely place For heroes like you and me Fallen down, just like a shooting star With no fallen angel standing by Angel of mercy, take pity on a fool That spent a lifetime wondering What Napoleon would do If he were in your shoes Rich without pleasure, respected without love Drinking poison from a golden cup While anger, creeps like a knife into your heart Looking back on yesteryear Seems like maybe you missed your calling But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling And destiny’s through calling And you have fallen down, fallen down Amazing grace, it’s such a lonely place Oh yes it is Fallen down, fallen down Fallen down, fallen down Amazing grace such a lonely place Oh yes yes it is Fallen down, fallen down |

Do you know me I'm the drivin' rain
And my mama was a hurricane Dear old daddy before he stormed out high on window pane Said you're my one and only boy child Call you the drivin' rain Drivin' rain, drivin' rain Talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain Pretty women say it drives them insane But they all want to know me I'm the drivin' rain It all started back in '69 I hit the ground running Couldn't wait to hear those gears grind Like my daddy I'm stone cold out of my mind I've driven 'round this world one, two, three, four,five hundred times Drivin' rain, drivin' rain Talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain Pretty women say it drives them insane But they all want to know me I'm the drivin' rain Do you remember first time you heard the thunder call Wind was moaning, creeping through your bedroom wall Moonlight splashing enough to make a rich girl fall Lightning crashing make a strong, strong woman crawl Drivin' rain, drivin' rain Talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain Pretty women say it drives them insane But they all want to know me I'm the drivin' rain Drivin' rain, drivin' rain Talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain Pretty women say it drives them insane But they all want to know me I'm the drivin' rain |

"My guardian angel wears a hard hat,"
Said the boy with the microphone "Else, I wouldn't be standing here today Ever since I was a young a boy I couldn't leave well enough alone Always trouble standing in my way Up, down, anywhere but in the middle Off the wagon, under the wheel again All or nothing - never could do just a little Never could leave it alone Got to ride that rocking horse Hard living be the death of me Lead me to an early grave To die in the saddle must be my destiny But to ride this rocking horse I must be crazed Good clean fun is just my imagination Down and dirty that's the way the game is played This hard life has caused me aggravation Never could leave it alone Got to ride that rocking horse Can't leave it alone Got to ride that rocking horse |

It's heavy-lay your burden down
It's heavy-lay your burden down Brother can't you see stars in the night Brother can't you see stars in the night There's a road up yonder far beyond the light Take a ride this morning on a slow train through the sky Take a ride this morning on a slow train through the sky My life is just a fast train, gone in the blink of an eye It's heavy-lay your burden down It's heavy-lay your burden down Felt the hand last Sunday when the stars refuse to shine Felt the hand last Sunday when the stars refuse to shine I'm just a young man, I don't feel like dying It's heavy-lay your burden down It's heavy-lay your burden down Can't you hear the angels screaming or is it all in my head Can't you hear the angels screaming or is it all in my head Looking out my window and the sky is blood red The sky is blood red You got to lay your burden down |
