"Watershed"

"Watershed"


Thought I knew my mind like the back of my hand,
The gold and the rainbow, but nothing panned out as I planned.
And they say only milk and honey's gonna make your soul satisfied!
Well I better learn how to swim
Cause the crossing is chilly and wide.
Twisted guardrail on the highway, broken glass on the cement
A ghost of someone's tragedy
How recklessly my time has been spent.
And they say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger!
Well I better learn how to starve the emptiness
And feed the hunger
Up on the watershed, standing at the fork in the road
You can stand there and agonize
Till your agony's your heaviest load.
You'll never fly as the crow flies, get used to a country mile.
When you're learning to face the path at your pace
Every choice is worth your while.
Well there's always retrospect to light a clearer path
Every five years or so I look back on my life
And I have a good laugh.
You start at the top, go full circle round
Catch a breeze, take a spill
But ending up where i started again makes me wanna stand still.
Stepping on a crack, breaking up and looking back
Every tree limb overhead just seems to sit and wait.
Until every step you take becomes a twist of fate.

"We Are Together"

"We Are Together"


The girl's known trouble the wind's to blame it blew her to anytown USA and that's my middle name
And where we go remains nameless a motion picture alive and frameless
And we are together finally the dog caught up with the rabbit is laughing hysterically
And we are together you and me yeah
Got that sadness twinkles like a witch conjure a love spell I'm gonna give up the five-year itch
Low to the ground high in the holler in any old February hot under the collar
And we are together finally the dog caught up with the rabbit is laughing hysterically and we are together you and me yeah
The setting sun at sadness beach just in view and out of reach
Resign myself to solitude when love is hard to get and rude
And though I said I did not care
It was way before we'd gotten there
Winded by the fruitless chase until I saw you face to face
Together finally the dog caught up with the rabbit is laughing hysterically and we are together you and me yeah

"We Get To Feel It All"

"We Get To Feel It All"


My, my... how time flies.
First time I met you - had to shade my eyes.
Cuz staring into the sun can make a girl blind.
Now here we sit in a shady spot.
Got what I wanted, and I want what I got...
But through the will of my own,
I just found my way home.
Here is what I learned about you.
You set the sun and you hung the moon.
Mid October or the month of June,
Temperatures rise and fall,
We get to feel it all.
Sometimes I can't tell
You're open like a book or shut like a shell.
But if I hold you to my ear,
I can hear the whole world.
Dark stories of a distant past
Our time created in a single blast...
You like to laugh at me because I'm serious... serious
Yes it's true...
But, Here is what I learned about you.
You set the sun and you hung the moon.
Mid October or the month of June, temperatures rise and fall,
We get to feel it all. We get to feel it all. We get to feel it all.
We get to feel it all.
Time waits for no one...
So I'm remembering that day in the sun.
How I was thinking that you needed time to cool down.
Circumstances make us tired and colder...
That's my coat thrown around your shoulder
And I know you'll give it back to me if I need it...
I believe it...
Here is what I learned about you.
You set the sun and you hung the moon.
Mid October or the month of June, temperatures rise and fall...
Here is what I learned about you.
You set the sun and you hung the moon.
Mid October or the month of June, temperatures rise and fall,
We get to feel it all.

"Welcome Me"

"Welcome Me"


Welcome me to the city of angels,
devil prophets still hold my hand.
I walked your stillborn streets for hours,
ethnic echoes spitting out their trials.
I'll be the first to praise the sun,
the first to praise the moon,
the first to hold the lone coyote,
the last to set it free.
Welcome me to a haven given,
it's well received into my open arms.
I ran in my sleep through shaking tremors,
I had the splitting earth echoing in my ears.
I'll be the first to praise the sun,
the first to praise the moon,
the first to hold the lone coyote,
the last to set it free.
Welcome me to the city of angels,
there's a devil monkey laying on our backs.
Where's the heart, where's the bullet for breaking.
Somebody give me a weapon,
a pacifying weapon.
I'll be the first to praise the sun,
the first to praise the moon,
the first to hold the lone coyote,
the last to set it free.

"What Are You Like?"

"What Are You Like?"


Today my mind is drawing a blank
I canvas you to color this in
There's no gas left in the tank
You've always got your engines running
You've got no whip when the beast lays down
And feeds upon the rest has finally found
What are you like?
My open door revolver
What are you like?
My go to problem solver
You shine a light in the darkest corners of my mind
What are you like?
You're that kind
I cover mirrors with the clocks (cover mirrors with the clocks)
I'm getting superstitious lately (you don't ever brush it off)
But you don't ever brush it off (you won't cover me to safety)
You won't cover me to safety
While I'm sitting on this couch
You're up and figuring it out
What are you like?
My open door revolver
What are you like?
My go to problem solver
You shine a light in the darkest corners of my mind
What are you like?
The Greek chorus of our little play
You'll explain me when I act this way
And as we go along
The unwritten song breaks through
And it's all about you
What are you like? (You're an open door)
What are you like? (You're the best and more)
What are you like? (You're a sacred text)
What are you like? (You're what's coming next)
What are you like? (You're my open door [X3])

"World Falls"

"World Falls"


I'm coming home with a stone, strapped onto my back.
I'm coming home with a burning hope turning all my blues to black.
I'm looking for a sacred hand to carve into my stone.
A ghost of comfort, angels breath - to keep this life inside my chest.
This world falls on me with hopes of immortality.
Everywhere I turn all the beauty just keeps shaking me.
I woke up in the middle of a dream, scared the world was too much for me.
Sejarez said, "don't let go, just plant the seeds and watch them grow."
I've slept in rainy canyon lands, cold drenched to my skin.
I always wake to find a face to calm these troubled lands.
This world falls on me with dreams of immortality.
Everywhere I turn all the beauty just keeps shaking me.
Running - end - earth - swimming - edge - sea - laughing - under - starry sky
This world was meant for me.
Don't bury me, carry me.
I wish I was a nomad, an Indian, or a saint.
The edge of death would disappear, leave me nothing left to taint.
I wish I was a nomad, an Indian, or a saint.
Give me walking shoes, feathered arms, and a key to heaven's gate.
This world falls on me with dreams of immortality.

"Yield"

"Yield"


I was downstairs in the greenroom
waiting for you to appear.
I said hello to your family,
I said hello to your friends,
I said hello to this situation
that never yields.
Now its easy for me to tell you
that my love for you is real.
I once stumbled on these feelings,
I once stumbled on these words,
something you'll never stumble on dear.
Oh you were so baroque,
all of those words,
just to tell me no.
And you were so softspoken
with all of the others
who said you weren't broken,
they just let you go.
When you're three days down the highway
and you're looking like I feel;
if it takes a lot to keep it going,
if it takes a lot to keep it real,
take sometime for yourself and
and learn to yield..

"Yoke"

"Yoke"


I found the binding of the yoke
That connects us here, in this herd of hope
Escort me to your kingdom come
From the gallows' hold, and the things we've done
You stole so much, so much at times
Just being bad, like the books we read
The helplessness that you played upon
Was just tenderness, to disarm
She ushered in love, but it drove you mad
Not to have everything of your envisioning
She wandered in on the peace you lacked
Yeah and you're losing still, that life you could've had
Tell that story one more time for me
Of the baited fields just for the taking dear
Where you heard the hunter's call
But your discipline kept you from the fall
But oh, to hold that tenderness in these grubby hands
I'd shoot anything
And you laughed at me, but you know I'm right
So why do you claim the strength to put up a fight
And you hold your nightmares close from view
The horses going wild, under a breaking moon
There's no way the bridle ever fits the bride
Yeah, and the weight of it, that's why we're here

"You And Me Of The 10,000 Wars"

"You And Me Of The 10,000 Wars"


You and me of the 10,000 wars,
dividing life into factions of pleasure and chores -
a bed to be made and a bed to lie in,
a hand in the darker side and our sights set on zion.
The heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child,
put my life in a box and let my imagination run wild
pour the cement for my feet.
the heart and the mind on a parallel course
never the two shall meet.
and, oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied
everybody loves a melodrama
and the scandal of a lie -
still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter
I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes -
still waters.
Try making one and one make one
twist the shapes until everything comes undone
watch the wizard behind the curtain
the larger than life and the power of seeming certain.
The evil ego and the vice of pride
is there ever anything else that makes us take our different sides?
I wanted everything to feed me.
About as full as I got was of myself
and the upper echalons of mediocrity
after the battle and we're still around
everything once up in the air has settled down
sweep the ashes let the silence find us
a moment of peace is worth every war behind us.
You and me of the 10,000 wars.

"You Left It Up To Me"

"You Left It Up To Me"


When i let you go, i cursed myself with empty hands. strong enough to watch you walk, but not enough to understand. with spiteful eyes you burn for my grace. i was trying to stand outside of this, you were trying to save face.
You can say that i don't care, i don't care. you can hope that we still have something left to share. just between you, baby and me there's nothing there.
I finally found someone that i can hold. you ask me to defend myself, as if i shouldn't be so bold. get that look off of your face. i don't have the time, you don't have the place.
You can say that i don't care, i don't care. you can hope that we still have something left to share. just between you, baby and me there's nothing there.
What are you gonna do? I can't salvage any truth for you. Everybody else already knows and it hurts you to realize so leave well enough, enough alone:
You don't need my hands to help you understand, you don't need to hear my voice (you have no choice). so don't being throwing stones, the closer we get, the harder they come. even if your feeling alone, don't come home. when it ways up to you, you left it up to me.
