- Closer to Dead
Trying not to lose my mind
I'm trying not to lose my head
Every day that's passing by
I'm a day closer to dead
Well it was nearly sunday morning
When I finally heard the news
Said the man had a heart
- Devil's Gonna Buy
Devi's Gonna Buy me a brand new pair of shoes
I'm gonna walk right down the streets of Baton Rouge
Said Devil do you think I'll make it down there
Don't you worry it's safe as hell
Devil's gonna buy me a brand new pair of shoes
Devil's gonna buy me a bid old mansion home
and a big old mansion yard to play with my children on
- Old Days
Every day I'm searching for the answer
Since you left my life has been a wreck
Every day I'm reading through your last love letter
Which hangs upon my wall above my desk
Every day I'm sifting through those memories
Swimming round and round inside my head
In that final hour when your eyes closed
I swear that I could still see you breathing
- On the Run
Babe you've got to believe me cause it's true
All of this has got nothing to do with you
But I've got places to go, I've got people to meet
And there ain't no stopping me
You can blame it all on my foolish pride
Babe you know I've got nothing to hide
But everywhere I go, I've got people on my side
And that's all I need tonight.
- Roots Bury Deep
Maybe there's a place out there
Where we can stretch our arms
All these city streets, city people and city dreams
Have got me wrong
But the rain doesn't taste the same these days
And the sky bends in a different way
Oh my eyes have seen greater things than these
Won't you let
- Tornado
When the TV stations and the skyscrapers went black
All the people ran to their safe places and they never came back
We were all alone on a street corner
When the hail began to fall
And the sky ripped open
The sky ripped open on us
If the tornado wants to get me
- Wishing Well
Found a wishing well in the forest
Where I laid my dreams
the trees were gossiping
About my circumstances
All I could see
Was the glimmer of the water as they whispered
And a promise of a life extraordinary
- Your Smiling Face
I ain't afraid of Dying
I ain't afraid of heights
I ain't afraid of all those creepy crawly things
That might bite me in the night
No I ain't afraid of waking up
With nothing left to eat
No I ain't afraid of no more money
And no shoes on my feet
