I took a drive today
Time to emancipate I guess it was the beatings, made me wise But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize I couldn't breathe, holding me down Hand on my face, pushed to the ground Enmity gauged, united by fear Forced to endure what I could not forgive I seem to look away Wounds in the mirror waved It wasn't my surface most defiled Head at your feet, fool to your crown Fist on my plate, swallowed it down Enmity gauged, united by fear Tried to endure what I could not forgive Saw things Saw things Saw things Saw things Clearer Clearer Once you were in my rear view mirror I gather speed from you, fucking with me Once and for all, I'm far away I hardly believe, finally the shades are raised Hey, yeah Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you Rear view mirror Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you Rear view mirror Saw things so much clearer Once you, once you Rear view mirror Saw things so much clearer Once you Oh yeah |

I want for to lay down
I'm waiting till sundown, uh I'm searching the haystacks Water is sunshine Wait for the moment The moment between us The fire is made now Harder to touch I wanted to get right I wanted to get right I wanted to get right With it, with you Baker's dozen parades Stand and debate Out single file Nine in a row Swear if you must Keeping your boots on Float with the now Hot to the touch Concrete underground Cast out everyday Dregs of society Underbelly Inside of me Rejoice and follow thee I wanted to get right I wanted to get right I wanted to get right With it, with you, woohoo With you I wanted to get right I wanted to get right I wanted to get right I wanted to get right with I wanted to get right I wanted to get right I wanted to get right I wanted to get right |

The selfish, they're all standing in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time Me, I figure as each breath goes by I only own my mind The north is to south what the clock is to time There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life I know I was born and I know that I'll die The in-between is mine I am mine And the feeling, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying The full moon is looking for friends at high tide The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied I only know my mind I am mine And the meaning, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight, whoa And the feelings that get left behind All the innocence broken with lies Significance between the lines We may need to hide And the meanings that get left behind All the innocence lost at one time We're all different behind the eyes There's no need to hide |

The waiting drove me mad
You're finally here and I'm a mess I take your entrance back Can't let you roam inside my head I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your bread I would rather run but I can't walk Guess I'll lie alone just like before I'll take the firmest path Oh, and I must refuse your test Push me and I will resist This behavior's not unique I don't want to hear from those who know They can buy, but can't put on my clothes I don't want to limp for them to walk Never would have known of me before I don't want to be held in your debt I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed I'm already cut up and half-dead I'll end up alone like I began Everything has chains Absolutely nothing's changed Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture... I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your breast All the things that others want for me Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't be what you want because I'm... Ain't supposed to be just one Oh, to live and die, let it be done I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began It's your move now I thought you were a friend But I guess I... I guess I hate you... |

Do you see the way that tree bends?
Does it inspire? Leaning out to catch the sun's rays. A lesson to be applied. Are you getting something out of this All-encompassing trip? You can Spend your time alone Re-digesting past regrets, oh. Or you can come to terms and realize, You're the only one who can forgive yourself, for... Makes much more sense To live In the present tense. Have you ideas on how this life ends? Checked your hands and studied the lines. Have you the belief That the road ahead Ascends off into the light Seems that needlessly It's getting harder To find an approach and a way to live. Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip? You can spend your time alone Re-digesting past regrets, oh. Or you can Come to terms and Realize You're the only one Who cannot forgive yourself for... Makes much more sense To live In the present tense. |

I shut and locked the front door
No way in or out I turned and walked the hallway And pulled the curtains down I knelt and emptied the mouth of every plug around But nothing's sound, nothing's sound I stayed where my last cap left me Ignored all my rounds Soon I was seeing visions and cracks along the walls They're upside down I swallow my words to keep from lying I swallow my face just to keep from biting, I, I.. I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, diving I surfaced and all of my being was enlightened Now...I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding It's been about three days now Since I've been aground No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now It's funny when things change so much It's all state of mind I swallowed my words to keep from lying I swallowed my face just to keep from biting, I, I I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, I was diving I surfaced and all of my being was enlightened Now I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah Now I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding... |

I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name Lifetimes are catching up with me All these changes taking place I wish I'd seen the place, but no one's ever taken me Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away I swear I recognize your breath Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising Me you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate Perhaps that's what no one wants to see I just wanna scream hello My god, it's been so long, never dreamed you'd return But now here you are, and here I am Hearts and thoughts, they fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away Hearts and thoughts, they fade |

I have not been home since you left long ago
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven Calm steps walking backwards on the road I'm counting my way back to heaven I can't be free with what's locked inside of me If there was a key you took it in your hand There's no wrong or right but I'm sure there's good and bad The questions linger overhead No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead I'm thumbing my way back to heaven I wish that I could hold you, I wish that I had Thinking 'bout heaven I let go of the rope thinking that's what held me back And in time I've realized it's now wrapped around my neck I can't see what's next from this lonely overpass Hang my head and count my steps as another car goes past All the rusted signs we ignored throughout our lives Choosing the shiny ones instead I turned my back, now there's no turning back Mmmmmmm No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead I smile, but who am I kidding? I'm just walking the mile, every once in a while get a ride I'm thumbing my way back to heaven I'm thumbing my way back to heaven I'm thumbing my way back to heaven |

She lived on the curve in the road
In an old tar paper shack. On the south side of the town On the wrong side of the tracks. Sometimes on the way into town We'd say, "Mama can we stop and give her a ride?" Sometimes we did But her hands flew from her side. Wild eyed Crazy Mary. Down the long dirt road Past the Parson's place. That old blue car We used to race. Little country store with a sign tacked to the side. Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED.' Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd. Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around. Take a bottle drink it down. Drink it... Pass it around. Pass it a... A-take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around. One night thunder cracked. Mercy backed outside my windowsill. Dreamed I was flying High above the trees, over the hills. Looked down into the house of Mary. Terrible thoughts, newspaper covered walls. And Mary rising up above it all. Oh... Oh... Oh... Next morning on the way into town Saw some skid marks and followed them around. Over the curve, Through the fields, Into the house of Mary. That what you fear the most could meet you halfway. (x2) Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around. Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it around. Pass it a... Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around. Oh, pass it a... Pass it arround. Pass it a... Pass it a... Pass it a... Oh yeah. |

Down. Fall by the wayside no getting out.
Down. Cry me a river dried up and dammed. The names can be changed but the place is still the same. I am loaded. Told that all's for naught. Holds me down. Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line. Rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train. One day the symptoms fade. Think I'll throw these pills away. And if hope could grow from dirt like me. It can be done. Won't let the light escape from me. Won't let the darkness swallow me. So long. |

How does he do it? How do they do it? Uncanny and immutable
This is such a happening tailpipe of a party Like sugar, the guests are so refined A confidence man, but why so beleaguered? He's not a leader, he's a Texas leaguer Swinging for the fence, got lucky with a strike Drilling for fear makes the job simple Born on third, thinks he got a triple Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way I remember when you sang That song about today Now it's tomorrow and Everything has changed A think tank of aloof multiplication A nicotine wish and a columbus decanter Retrenchment and hoggishness The aristocrat choir sings "What's the ruckus?" The haves have not a clue The immenseness of suffering And the odd negotiation, a rarity With onion-skin plausibility of life And a keyboard reaffirmation Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way through the cities Blackout weaves its way I remember when you sang That song about today Now it's tomorrow and Everything has changed. |
