Intro (Tic Toc)
03:25

|
The wheels are falling off on both sides
and the load ain’t light
it’s no surprise
With a crooked back and nervous smile
I will live and die
with a tic toc tickin’ I’m fallin’, fallin’
down the line

Hey Darlin'

Hey Darlin’ I smell the cookin’ from the sidewalk
Hey Darlin’ you’ve got the recipe for this strange boy’s heart
Hey Darlin’ you’ve got me cryin’ – fallin’ down on the floor
Hey Darlin’ I can’t stop laughin’ – yeah we have fun
I want to know you when you’re sixty-five
I want to be your best friend when you’re seventy-five
Hey Darlin’ I want you to know that everything will be fine
Hey Darlin’ I’ve got the whole world now that you are mine
Hey Darlin’ I feel like I’ve known you for my whole life
Hey Darlin’ the weather’s never too cold when you’re by my side
I want to know you when you’re sixty-five
I want to be your best friend when you’re seventy-five
I want to know you when you’re eighty-five
I want to be your best friend for the rest of our lives…

Earthquake

Busy streets, stop and go
Pay no mind, eb and flow
Hurry up and wait, company can save
a dollar on your hourly wage
thirty million strong, every year gone
boss has got you where he wants
white and no experienced, paid more than the Mexicans
who can work you up and down, family still down south
hiding away from the government
There’s a ghost in my bones, crying out – wants to be left alone
and every time I give it time, there’s an earthquake in my mind
The topic for today, share it on your page
wait for others to validate that you are not wrong
like the viet-cong, the enemy is growin strong
Better man up, better build up more fortresses and futile walls
Hide behind your telescope, give a dog another bone
When your eyes drown out your ears, how will you swim through all these tears?
There’s a ghost in my bones, crying out – wants to be left alone
and every time I give it time, there’s an earthquake in my mind
The bigger they are, the harder they fall
The more that they want, the harder to let go
The bigger we are, the harder we fall
The more that we want, the harder to let go
The bigger you are, the harder you fall
The more that you want, the harder to let go
The bigger I am, the harder I fall
The more that I want, the harder to let go
There’s a ghost in my bones, crying out – wants to be left alone
and every time I give it time, there’s an earthquake in my mind

Step Aside
03:22
|
|||
|
When you start to feel the contact
pushin’ pullin’ like a heart attack
All around you see the cities fall
Did you hear all of the warning calls to step aside
it’s about time
to step aside
Have you been hoggin’ all the spotlight
cause you were tossed over the fault line
ever since you were a small child, you’ve been carryin’ the big pearl
now step aside
it’s about time
to step aside
Turn around now, you gotta
Face the crowd now, you gotta
Pass the torch down, you gotta
Step aside now

Seein' Lines
03:39
|
|||
|
Another day, another mornin
waitin’ for my callin’
another day, another mornin’
wakin’ up with no clue when
I’ll feel alright
Gone blind, I’ve noticed
It’s time I’m seein’
No eyes – no bottom
Need less, I’m learnin’
I will be alright
Wise blood, don’t give in
Too much to listen
What’s what, we’re given
What’s what, I’m listenin’
All of my life
Hold on, I’m hopin’
Too long, it’s seemin’
Past done, we’re losin’
Pay up, keep movin’
I am seein’ lines
Ambition is a hell of a drug.

Rumors of Light
03:35
|
|||
|
Wouldn’t it be nice if every day was like
the first day of spring, the sun hittin’ just right
Wouldn’t it be nice if we lived in paradise
and nobody took advantage of each others’ lives
Wouldn’t it be nice if we all lived in the sky
every view filled our appetites
Wouldn’t it be nice if struggle took a hike
but here we are sailing through the wintertime
I know it has to be cold for it snowyyyyyyyyyyyyy7
There are rumors of light and sacrifice
in the air overshadowed by white lies
Try with all your might, never get it right
just take a moment and move along
I know, don’t have grow old for it to show
Yeah, we all know it has to be cold for it to snow

Missin' Out
04:34
|
|||
|
Close my eyes but don’t see in my mind
crippled by the mirror, and the outside
Tightened fist, tip toe
crouch so low, under the smoke
Ohhh
Run till I fall, growin’ so tall
someday I just might touch the sky
I’m not blind, I see the wake left
by the wild west, the souls who came and went
Ohhh
Gotta find a way out
Drive on to the next town
I want to celebrate life
Been thinkin’ that I’m missin’ out
Gotta find a way out
Forty miles to the next town
I want to celebrate life
Been thinkin’ that I’m missin’ out

The Night
02:56
|
|

Are you running out of space to run?
Is it too familiar to get stuck in a rut?
Do you feel alone like a rolling stone?
Is it too familiar no place feels like home?
Fade into the night
like the moon reflect the light
we're dancing with the tide
Is the gravity making itself known?
Is it unfamiliar, the blue sky and the sun?
Well there's a speckled bird carved in a rose
and a neon lights show born of eb and flow
Fade into the night
like the moon reflect the light
we're dancing with the tide
Let the sea rise
Let the sea rise
There's a reason
Fade into the night
like the moon reflect the light
we're dancing with the tide
So fade into the night
like the moon reflect the light
we're dancing with the tide

Lookin' Onward
03:45
|
|||
|
I’m a wanderer, lookin’ onward to find the truth
I see projections in divisions
I’m leaving soon
It’s not my mission
I’m just restlessly gloom and doom
But I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Tantalized by the signs of our times
Pick your poison, fill the void with
A trend to rule
Fact or ficion, check your diction
It’s all within you
Now I’m alone with lack of focus
and what’s through is through
But I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Tantalized by the signs of our times
You see, I just want to get it right
In the darkness or in the light
I’ve been wanderin’ all my life, all my life
Alright
I’m not yours and you’re not mine
Tantalized by the signs of our times
You know, I just want to get it right
In the darkness or in the light
I’ll be wanderin’ all my life, all my life

Over My Head
05:03
|
|||
|
Sometimes I feel like humans are just like a virus
spreading through the earth, infected at birth
It’s so tough to navigate these waves of complication
opinion and here-say, when the skies are grey
Looks like I’ve spent another day
wondering where my life’s heading
Have I been trying too hard,
or not enough?
Who am I to judge?
Who am I to sing this song anyway,
when a faith I used to know lingers over my head?
What good is one more drop tossed in the ocean?
What is it worth?
I’m in over my head
My thoughts are all in knots
left out in the wind too long
tired and burnt
In over my head
Left, right, or wrong
just try to sing along for awhile
gotta let go
melt with the snow
