- Gabriel
I know you're tired but our hands are in the fire
This ain't no time for dreaming
you're gonna snap that cosmic wire
We'll go crashing from the ceiling
you'll be crying, you'll be kneeling
you'll be wasted away
Your angel doesn't work for free anymore
- Gas Station Rose
Well we can't have a garden while we're still on the road
There's only room on the dash for a gas station rose
You know that when I shut up I got something to say
I was looking at you, you were looking away
At least we dodged the New York winter...
Well maybe the mountain in our eyes
- Honey in the Morning
you said you wanted space
so i gave you montana
and i gave you more than half of my bread
all these lines that make your face
sometimes i wish they didn't matter wish they didn't matter
but i draw them every night in my head
i never slept good on your one person mattress
- I Won't Run
i could get used to texas
get a job
go work for your dad
You know he's not a drunk
he just makes the wine look bad
you hit me in my solar plexus
IÂ swear on my guitar
- Little Death
SOMETIMES I SEE US BOTH WALKING BACK TOGETHER IN MY MIND
LIKE MAYBE, WE BOTH REALLY MISUNDERSTOOD
BUT THAT DON'T MEAN THAT WE REALLY SHOULD
NOW I'M THINKING THAT WE MISSED THAT TRAIN FOREVER AND THAT'S FINE
CUZ BABY IT WASN'T STOPPIN AT NO PLACE GOOD
I'M GONNA WRITE A SONG
- Long Way Home
[Verse 1]
It's a long way home
He couldn't see too well
His left eye was shot out in the war
And the other one was getting so tired of watching all of the time
It's hard enough keep awake and alive on this cold day
[Verse 2]
- Madman
You can call me a madman but I'm spoken for
You can take my possessions, leaves me an open door
And the city has a way to make you forget
About half the stuff you love and things you don’t know yet
About the space that’s left where nobody talks
About the quiet on the path where nobody walks
- Married to the Lord
aint nobody gonna take me
for an angel i'm only flying with the crows while all the saints are sleeping in heaven
i wanna be down on the alter
takin' off your clothes
i don't wanna get you lost in my religion i don't wanna be a stone hand me the keys
we won't live forever
i don't wanna drive you crazy
- Rabbit Hole
the ol black hole's a comin'
You just start digging
Now you're onto something
and you
can't put your finger on it
when you do
that's when you don't want it
- Shine My Diamond Ring
Take my weighted hand
to my desert land,
wash my sorrow.
Take my weighted hand
to my desert land,
wash my sorrow.
Thunder hammering
- Signs
English lyrics :
There were songs in the trees
There were signs all around me
There was a band playing softly as the day was slowly dying
I put my hand inside
I pulled a green stone from my pocket and I watched it glow
I heard a train go by then I thought of you
- Spiritual Leather
Toes that dent the sand melancholy feelings I am still your man, feeling is believing, wars come into my dreams, they needle me awake. On the road is long and wider than forever I hope we’re that strong spiritual leather. Time, she was never such a friend she never cried for me. Time, she was never a friend, she never waits for me. What is the answer to every question what is the reason for every direction if we burn the answer for our protection, would that be ok? The sun is filled with lies promises and laughter, now I can’t be that wise but I have seen the after. Slow, slow, that mamma down, I gotta get back home, slow, slow that mamma down, I gotta get back home.
- Squid Tattoo
I've been up too late in this dive bar
I dipped the wrong song into alcohol
Now I love you
But I can't believe you're from ohio
I love your squid tattoo
I love the way you live
I love your black lipstick that you're speaking with
- The Ballad Of Buttermilk Falls
The willow, still she cries that lonely song
It's been so long
And the stars are the same stars with the same truth
And in that river's secret, still shivering
The reckoning
That came like thunder on September 1st
4 of them go blind with confidence
- The Very First Snow
The world rolls and it changes gears
But today I'll stay in bed
I'm gonna soak these sheets in tears
I'm gonna think of you instead
They say that you're in a better place now
Oh but they don't believe what they know
You left with all of the Christmas lights on
- To Leave Something Behind
I cannot say that I know you well
But you can't lie to me with all these books that you sell
I'm not trying to follow you to the end of the world
I'm just trying to leave something behind
Words have come from men and mouse
But I can't help thinking that I've heard the wrong crowd
When all the water is gone my job will be too
- To Make It Real
not too much
but maybe a little
enough to touch
I wish this pill worked every time
it took this
to get that feeling
like the first kiss
- Toast
we're cooked
we're toast
goodbye
your clothes
so warm
down south
i kiss
your mouth
- Tornado Head
Here we go again, Tornado Head
Your little pink house was meant for firewood instead
Here we go again, Tornado Head
And there's no place left for you to run
How did this turn get so taken for the worse
And all the sweet notes cover bitter ones at first
Here we go again, Tornado Head
- What Are We Now
its a long way coming down
and you try to be so smart
but theres a hammer on your chest
and it's bound to break your heart
where's the version of yourself
the one who knew which way was up
you're gonna drink away tomorrow
with all the wrong things in your cup
