Wishing Well
03:02

So give it to me the hard way, I'll be hitting the highway
The spirit's in my lane, I'll be making a new name
Pills like candy, oh, Mary and Brandy
All surround me, someone's clowned me
Kaleidoscope illusions, you know I've been abusing
And though times are lonely, God opened windows for me
And so I jumped through, it was great to meet you
Eyes on the ceiling, it's an empty feeling
Yeah, I'm digging a new grave, the ravens craw my name
And now that you've gone away, nothing is the same
I've gotta tell you now I've seemed to bottom out
Fell down the wishing well, it shot me straight to Hell

Spark Morning
03:04
|
|||
|
In a zone when I woke
A dim light beam across the smoke
Makes me feel so at home
Ease my mind with some kind of thing
It might be green but it won't be seen
'Cause no one has to really know
I love her, she loves him
Yo, check it out now, lights were dim
But now I found a happy glow
In the pile of leaves I lay
Forget about the troubles from yesterday
Learning a lot, embracing closed thoughts
That ramble on so mysterious
I couldn't stop it if I tried
There's not a single day that goes by
In the garden to pull my blend
Harvesting my one and only friend
On the lawn, break of dawn
Some guy named Sean who looks like Spawn
Gave me a pot of gold
On the rocks, in the creek
I grabbed a bird by the beak
Then I feel bad and let him go
No one knows where you go
When you die, with your eyes
Have you proof of the story told?
Elves in the pasture with good intentions
Always have an abstract tale to mention
Sleeping in a story, the one I remember
We rocked upon the stars flying around forever
A lot of times I burn by myself
Because I don't have to impress no one else
The sky is swirling in a spiral motion
Glazy red eyes, drinking purple potion

Girl In The Canyon
02:06
|

She found me in the creek
The sun was shining through the trees
I told her how I've been
She lives right there in a wooden cabin, yeah
Trying to think kind of clear
Come to think of it, I'll take a beer
She lives down in the canyon
I wonder if she's looking for a companion
Or a real good friend
Because I like her a lot, yeah
She's cooking coffee on the pot
Now she wants to smoke it all
I was lifeless floating in the sewer
Now I'm pawning gold and I'm feeling newer
She's cute and really cool
She's open-minded for a poetic fool
She's a real good woman, she's really sweet
Always likes to laugh at me, yeah
I'm in love with the girl in the canyon
I wonder if she's looking for a companion
I wonder if she's looking for a companion

I'll Be Home Next Summer
03:23
|
|||
|
I've been up north working on the line
And I haven't been home in a long time
I wonder how my folks and friends are doing back at home
I'm going back to the place I've always known
And I don't know how long I'll go
I'm just sure that I'm going home
Yeah, I'm leaving here today, got my ticket and suitcase
At Six A.M. today I'm on my way
And I'll be home next summer
Wintertime in the pines is a bummer
Met a girl but didn't love her
And I'll be home next summer
Yes I will, next summer
Yes I will, I will
So I'm on a flight headed south to where I'm from
Back to my roots, a long time I've been gone
I wonder if my high school love still lives 'round there
The girl I love, the girl with long brown hair
Well I found out she still lives around the way
So now I'm thinking that I wanna stay
'Cause I don't wanna go back to Alaska's freezing snow
And a girl who done me wrong that I don't wanna know
And I'll be home next summer
Wintertime in the pines is a bummer
Met a girl but didn't love her
And I'll be home next summer
Yes I will, next summer
Yes I will, next summer
Yes I will, next summer
Yes I will, next summer

Mourning Glory
02:46
|
|||
|
Step forward to be known
Cry softly and be thrown away
I never could see
What was happening to me
Oh, and the wind blows
Oh, and the moon glows
Oh, and the showers pour down
Try slowly to see
If everything is a dream
Who's faking a friend
Who's using to end their life
Oh, and the rains came
Oh, and the trees swayed
Oh, and she left me that day
Oh, and she leaves me
Oh, I'm so sleepy
Oh, I just wanted her love
When happy and clues found
There's no ending, there's no ground
I'm open, I'm there
Still blooming in the air
Oh, and the creek flows
Oh, and the grass grows
Oh, and the rainbow's gone

Yellow Son

It's funny knowing days ain't showing on my face
She is the town whore, preoccupied with shit for brains
I heard you're free, I sure in the hell hope so
Or maybe I don't care, I guess I just don't know
Sometimes I can't remember my name
Usually when things don't seem the same
I open my eyes at what's long to be fine
While I'm digging out a hole
I'm filling myself up at the same time
A rush of gold travels down my old soul
Looking back at memories when she wanted to be with me
Well I knew her on the phone but she let me go
Now a losing streak of solitary slowly starts to creep on me
She snagged my heart but I'll get it back
She really knows how to make me sad
I don't mind, no I don't mind
When I'm digging out a hole
I'm filling myself up at the same time
I don't mind, I don't mid
While I'm digging out a hole
I'm filling myself up at the same time

I walk alone with nowhere to go
I stand morose, white as a ghost
Following my shadow to the den
Remembering how she once was my friend
I wanna go to a place where no one really knows me
Watching the waves roll up on the shore so slowly
Lonesome dawn, it's been long since she's been gone
She was right, seems I was wrong
Something's changed, it's not the same since I've lost her
I'm walking the streets now, searching for a cure
I thought she was my girl, but it was just my imagination
She said that she loved me, but she was only playing
Am I born to lose as I drown in booze
So I can recover from the girl who's made me blue?
Adversity surrounding me, my heart has shrunk
Stunned by knowing I failed again at love
Over-wind this brain of mine and take me to a better time
Going all out but staying inside, now I'm on a dark ride
Memories of her are all I really have left
I feel like sleeping forever, alone I watch the sunset
Alone I watch the sunset
Alone I watch the sun set

Rain
03:34

Rain, rain, go away
Come back another day
You have swept my plans away
I have been through so much pain
My girl had left me the day before
She sold the key and burned my door
Now I just sit here and play
My guitar and smoke all day
As I look out the window and realize
The sun is gone, but it won't be for long
Won't be gone for that long
Rain, rain, here to stay
Feel your storm when skies are grey
As your lightning lights the sky
As your thunder roars on by
Rain, rain, called the day
I want to go and play
Though your darkness made its way
I can understand your pain
Then I noticed the sun had dried the rain
And cleansed the day of all the pain
Now I move on to another day
Another cold and rainy day

Willow
02:31
|
|||
|
In the wintertime, winds blowing strong
Been dreaming of her all day long
Sitting here by the fireplace
Trees outside, they strongly sway
I've been here in the mountains
'Cause I love the smell of the air
Trippin' in the cabin
Out the window I closely stare
Off the willow trees the leaves do blow
The creek is rough from all the snow
The coffee pot is roasting hot
I can't believe this is my spot
Away from people I love to be
Just as long as she's there with me
Hiding out, puffing inside
This is my place and I feel fine

It Is What It Is
04:18
|
|||
|
The sun has shone today, the birds are all at play
When you're staying straight, people will tell you that you look so great
But when you're not here, my blue skies all turn grey
And loneliness, I must confess, makes me slip away
'Cause you gotta look good like you do
My grey skies all turn blue, girl
I glow when I'm 'round you
I love you, need you
Every night I dream of you
Life makes sense when I'm with you
Don't let me down, don't make me blue
Guess I thought our love was true
It is what it is
It's hard not wanting to go get loaded
Knowing that the love we had has folded
It's a sadness that is like no other
Living life in a dark room under covers
Then you do the things you do
I die when I see you
'Cause you don't feel the same way too, girl
I'm empty, lonely
You never wanted to know me
Heartbroken, shattered me
Believed the tricks up your sleeve
Fell again for words you spoke to me
It is what it is
Goodbye girl, I guess my time has come and gone
My love for you has all dissolved into the dawn
As I turn back off the tracks to where I came from
And go find love in my past drug, there's nothing wrong
And you don't realize the truth
To hurt the way you do, girl
I'm sure is nothing new
I need to forget you
Why have I let you
Stab the heart worn on my sleeve
I was vulnerable, showed you everything
Never again, I'll let another see
The inside of me
It is what it is

Flaky Wonder
02:10
|

|
Hearts are beating as I'm sleeping
Waiting for a dream to come true
A lot of people don't know I exist
Let's keep it that way
Let's keep it that way
Long steady woman gonna come my way
Condemned by a solid serpent sign
Trying to captivate my lonesome mind
Conclusions now are put to rest
Like an unfinished test
I'm scoring less
My mind is such a fuckin' mess
You know I never, no I never
Never had a love to call my own
A lot of friends I'd thought I known
Who wouldn't even throw
A dog a bone
Now you know why I'm alone
Now you know why I'm alone
Now you know why I'm alone
Now you know why I'm alone

Taking A Train
02:55

My lyin' lady
She's been foolin' 'round
And foolin' me deep down
Inside I feel the pain
And I wanna go away
I'm leavin' here today
Leaving this whole state
Takin' a train
Hey hey, takin' a train
Far away from here
A different atmosphere
On the train, I'm headed eastbound
Looking for a pad in a New York town, now
I found a nice place on the coast
I'm gonna make the most and call it home
'Cause she tried to suck out my soul
But she couldn't take away my Rock and Roll
Hey hey, takin' a train
Far away from here
A different atmosphere
So I've taken this train to get
So far from you and all the mean shit you do
Sure, you're only human, and humans make mistakes
But now it's all too late, you had your chance
When I gave you my hand
But you cut me down to half a man
Hey hey, takin' a train
Far away from here
A different atmosphere
