i'm going for a ride
follow the dust and the telephone lines
buried by the sky
in this town gone to ghosts
singing along
every word was a crying dove
noon, I was high above
as this crowd comes between us
here, here, here we are
at risk of flight, drawn and bowed
ten thousand steps reaped and sewn
down this yellow dirt road
here, here, here we are
where the world is always flat
and the edge is where we're always at
hanging on to letting go
we walk, we walk, we walk
we walk , we walk we walk, we walk so far
we walk, we walk, we walk
we walk, we walk, we walk, we fall so hard
the blowing wind, it blew me
the changing times, went through me
but I'm not better
i'm just blown
give me a sign
tell me a story that gets me there
which way to anywhere
this time, i swear i'm listening
light 'em up
the morning climbs up over the hill
into the valley it spills
back from the forgotten
here, here, here we are
the lights are on, the calls are last
the getaway car ain't coming back
and i'm knock, knock, knocking on the door
here, here, here we are
out of the city, into the sand
off of this beaten and broken path
skipping like a stone
we walk, we walk, we walk
we walk, we walk, we walk, we walk so far
we walk, we walk, we walk
we walk, we walk, we walk, we fall so hard
the blowing wind it blew me
the changing times, went through me
but i'm not better
i'm just blown

Kids of Children

in the morning
California
by the evening
rain was pouring
fifty years
on the table
buy the farm
or bet the cradle
the satellites are on the ground
the satellites are on the ground
the satellites are on the ground
you're not coming in
i'm not getting through
the moon is down
you can ask the dust
take the wayward bus
you can work your whole life at the Post Office
you roll up
you roll in
this is where the kids of children live
i couldn't get here any sooner
the road was lost
the land was lunar
did you think
you'd find your calling
in the city
of angels falling
everyone who comes through here
thinks it's Chinatown
on Polanski's dirt
and the shifty ground
but this town's a heist
it rolls like dice
the mountains are viewed
and the skirts are hiked
you roll up
you roll in
this is where the kids of children live
in the morning
California

City of No

i see your living at the lost and found
where you go, when your getting out
have a nice day
i'll see you next week
with nothing to lose
but something to bring
walking on stars down the shady street
skipping like a record at the bottom of the sea
not enough money to stay in trouble
just enough nothing for bursting bubbles
i don't know who i'm gonna meet
i don't know where i'm gonna go
i'm just here
in the the city of no
you read the story in the check out line
and you woke up on the bus
in a body that was being born
heading for the sun
i'll see ya when you get here
at the gateway of running away
i can teach you how to dance alone
here, in the city of no
all your wearing are those knee high socks
and a shiny new paradox
i can't sleep while your putting in thorns
every night is a day unborn
i don't know who i'm gonna meet
i don't know where i'm gonna go
i'm just here
in the city of no
you got the room with the parking lot view
and a cure for when the morning comes
on the boulevard of cheetahs and clowns
where they say you can have some fun
i'll see ya when you get here
i'll see you when you can't get way
what you keep, is what you'll owe
here, in the city of no
i'll see ya when you get here
at the gateway of running way
i'll teach you how to dance alone
here, in the city of no
i'll see ya when you get here
don't bring anything you can't give away
what you keep is, what you'll owe
here. in the city of no
i'll see ya when you get here
i'll see you when you can't get away
when there's no place you call home
here, in the city of no

Terrify Me
05:16

|
maybe you've been here
for far too long
every way that you go
you've already gone
making dirt angels
under the taking tree
the future was here
now it's nowhere to be seen
terrify me
maybe your here
maybe your gone
maybe your there
right where you belong
no one ever sees you
you're buried in the back
right beside the bones
of all your favorite pets
then, out the door
like there's someplace you gotta be
closer than you appear
running naked down the street
terrify me
Saturday nights and the Sunday fights
i've seen you at your best
but you've never recovered from being just like the rest
swinging for the fences in your bedroom by the sea
singing right along, like you know what i mean
terrify me
empty swimming pools and dive in bars
drinking while driven, in self crashing cars
your eyes are wide open, you just don't like what you see
pretty in a cage and transparent when your free
terrify me

Lunar Mind*
05:00
|
|||
|
you and me
we're always together
you and me
hand in hand forever
driving off
into the setting sun
singing songs
and getting drunk
but, don't you know
someday, you'll tear the heart out of your sunshine
so ease into the twilight
of your lunar mind
suit and tie
and some shiny shoes
liquid dress
underneath a swollen moon
flowers twisting
in a broken glass
questions answered
but, i swear, i never asked
don't you know
someday, you'll tear the heart out of your sunshine
so ease into the twilight
of your lunar mind
please, please, won't you please let me know
i'm still awake
don't you know
someday, you'll tear the heart out of your sunshine
so let it her go
and ease into the twilight of your lunar mind
