Come On
04:21
|

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Come on Kids. Come on and do your best.
The Fires. They will burn. Ignite the night.
And the ash fall. In clouds. Dark out the light.
And a virus. Creeps in. To try and take a life.
In solitude. We will huddle. Filled with fright.
And leaders. Let you down. Day by day.
Hold you back. Kill your dream. No matter what they say.
And the hoarders. Hoard their money. And hide away.
While we sicken. As we're stricken. With no other way.
People dying. Mothers crying. We want to live.
Bullets of hate. Shoot to take. We want to live.
Through the trials. And hard denials. We want to live.
Across the miles. Across the aisles. We want to live.

Dusty Rental
03:37
|

In mornings sometimes I hear you whisper
I wake up, I'm still alone again
Sometimes I still hear your footsteps in the doorway
Wonder if you'll maybe come back again
When you text me in the middle of the night
It's cryptic so I wonder if you're alright
Any time, you know I'll do all I can
Yes, I know you've got yourself a new man
On the beach. Several years ago.
I still remember. Words you said.
Hard wood floors. In a dusty rental.
I hated to see. Inside your head.
All the roads. We walk forever.
Lead me here. For good or bad.
In the evening sometimes I sit and wonder
If you were here, would we fight again?
Rain will fall and the stillness and that's all
Where I'm going is maybe better than where we've been

Family Man
01:36
|
|||
She said she don't want no jerk
No geek off the street
Seen enough of this
Seen enough of that
Time to get it together
No more messin' around
This time she wants a family man
Got big plans
No one understands
Seen enough of the world
To be where she'll be
Some will call her crazy
Call her nuts
About time she wants a family man
He can be dumb
As long as he works hard
No way he'll be perfect
But he can come home at night
Give kind words
Don't need much
All she needs is a family man

Happy and Healthy
03:22
|

Something. You know I need something
Happy and Healthy. Happy and Healthy.
I want something. Hell, I need something.
How about happy and healthy. Happy and healthy.
I need a gun. A big old gun.
The biggest damn gun. Under the sun.
You never never know. What I'll need to get done.
But I might do some shootin'. So I need a gun.
I gotta be pretty. I gotta be wealthy.
I need all the muscles. That's what they tell me.
If you wanna know me. Let's see what you can buy me.
If you wanna try me. Start by being wealthy.
I got my agenda. Big return to sender.
The big never ender. The endless depender.
So get on my agenda. We can be there together.
And if you don't like it. You're just a big pretender.

I believe in Someone
04:23
|
|||
I believe in Someone. I believe in you.
When I'm traveling in the darkness. And I don't know what to do.
I believe in someone. I believe in you.
When the walls close around me. And I can't break through.
I believe in someone. I believe in you.
Standing on the bridge of doubt
Staring at the waters below
Thinking what I can't live without
Wondering what I could know
Seems nothing goes as planned out
Timelines go askew
Too easy to get trapped in self doubt
Wishing for something new
Chalk it all up to bad luck
Hindsight sure ain't fair
Take the hits when I should have ducked
Wishing I didn't care
I believe in Someone. I believe in you.
When I'm traveling in the darkness. And I don't know what to do.
I believe in someone. I believe in you.
When the walls close around me. And I can't break through.
I believe in someone. I believe in you.

Miriam
04:51
|

Got some money set aside. I can take you for a ride.
Drive out someplace. Was gonna get you high.
Talk about all the problems of the world.
Sometimes I imagine you're still that kind of girl.
Miriam. Please don't say that we're done. Miriam
Miriam. I know you think I'm not the one. Miriam
Miriam. Yes, there's a million other guys under the sun. Miriam
What would your Twitter friends think. If they knew you try all that hard?
If they could see you now. Would they suspect you'd go all that far?
Yes, someday every one of us is gonna die.
But can you handle being on your own now, for a while?
Miriam. Yeah, I know you think that we're done. Miriam
Miriam. Yeah, sure I'm not much fun. Miriam
Miriam. All I ever wanted was for you to become. Miriam
What would your Twitter friends say now. If they could be here somehow?
What would they do. Would they try to get through?
Put on a show, nobody will ever know
Do what you want to, you're free now, so go

Rewind
03:38
|
|||
What can I do? To turn back time?
What can I do? To make you mine?
I wanna hit rewind
What can I do? To change your mind?
What can I do? To fix this bind?
Wish I could hit rewind
You're the kind of girl. Comes once in a life
You're the kind of girl. Take you for a wife
Yes I would, yes I would indeed
You're the kind of friend. I've longed for
Waited all my life. To hear you knock on my door
Never thought you would, thought you would indeed
You're the kind of girl. I wanna hang around
You're the kind of girl. Keeps me in this town
Yes you do, yes you do indeed
You're the kind of girl. Rocket ship
You're the kind of gal. A one way trip
Yes you are, yes you are indeed
What could I do? Change my ways?
What can I do? To see you every day?
I would hit rewind
Yes I do, yes I do indeed

She Glows
02:56
|

See there's this gal. Oh that I've known. Long time you know
I hear her whisper. Nights in my dream. And where I go
I see her picture. When I close my eyes. She's intent on me
And then the wind blow. And I'm to realize. She's all I need
You know she glows. You know she glows
There's a light. That shines on me. Comes from the sky
And in the winter. I could freeze. Look into her eyes
The light she rides. Down through the night. To be by my side
Someday she'll take me. When she flies. To other galaxies
You know she glows. You know she glows
