The Sea
01:40
|

|
The sun has awoken and fallen again
Gone is the daybreak that longed for the end
Over the hills comes the wind from the bend
That stole her away from me over again
Should it be that all my love has been washed out to sea

Fifteen
03:58

Way down south
Where to mines cross town
And everybody runs to get away
A shadow comes
To steal the sun
In the little ways we let it get away
Half a mind to get my gloves
Fifteen ways to kill my love
Plot my course for out of town
Wipe the blood away I'm going down
Way down south
Where the shots cross town
And everybody runs to get away
Half a mind to get my gloves
Fifteen ways to kill my love
Plot my course for out of town
Wipe the blood away I'm going down
We will never be the same
We will never find our way
We will never know our place
We will never need to say the words
That guide us on our way
Way down south
Where the blood runs black
And everybody dies without a name

Stuck on Someone
02:56
|

|
Now I see myself
And I ain't no one else
Livin' on borrowed time
Reading between the lines
Now I find myself
Stuck on someone else
Livin' on borrowed time
Reading between the lines
And I got something I need to say
I just hope you feel the same ol' way
Seems you take up all my time
Girl, let me read your mind

I want you
To come back to me
I want you
To lie awake with me
I want you
To come back to me
I want you
To stay alive to see
That there's not sentimental value to this place
And there's no god above with whom to share your grace
It's all a waste
And I ain't ever gonna hurt myself again
No I ain't ever gonna hurt myself

Riverboat

Been waiting here in my riverboat
Been waiting long just to let it go
No choice but to let the sun
Soak up all the water
Down here in my riverboat
Cause you were there when the sun came down
And you were there when the lights went out
Been waiting here in my riverboat
Been waiting long for the flood to go
No choice but to let the rain
Drive me further away
Down here in my riverboat
Cause you were there when the sun came down
And you were there when the lights went out
I was sitting here on god's bench looking down
Cause you were there when the sun came down
And you were there when the lights went out

Heaven on Your Wings
04:18
|
|||
|
Right now, some how
Heaven's worth dying again
It's old now, and hurts how
But Heaven's worth dying again
And you had people that would hold you down
Until you're ready to
Fly now, come down
Heaven's worth dying again
And you've got Heaven on your wings

Enough in the Way
03:39

Hold now, I've seen
My old man
Running through the snow
Hold now, I've seen
Dear old dad
Fall down in the cold
Pick me up
Dine on arrogance
'Cause I got enough in the way
To watch you go
Hold now, I've seen
An old friend
Flying through the door
Hold now, I've seen
Good and dead
Coming out the floor
Hold now, I've seen
Good and bad
Running from the poor
Hold now, I've seen
What I had
I ain't got no more

Ain't Myself No More
04:27

Boy you was livin' a troubled life
Be sure to buy yourself more time
Lord knows you've seen trouble and strife
Be sure to buy yourself more time
But I guess I don't understand his plan
I gotta get control of myself
'Cause myself ain't myself no more
Boy, you was livin' on the wrong side of town
No one was there to carry you
Boy, you was livin' on the bottom end of down
We were always there to burden you
But I guess I don't understand his plan
I gotta get control of myself
'Cause myself ain't myself no more
You were told so many promises weren't you
You were taught all the right moves to the wrong tune
You were told we could help you
But I guess I don't understand

Well I met a girl says her name was Molly May
Said she'd been from Jackson to L.A.
What did you come here to find
Seems you've left a little piece behind
You'll get lost before you ever find your way
Well I met a man said his dreams had let him go
Vanished like footprints in the show
What did you come here to be
Seems you're much to far away to see
You'll get lost before you ever find your way
Well I met a child says his mom has run away
And daddy has lost hope of better days
What did you come here to die
Well death is just to close your eyes
You'll get lost before you ever find your way
Well I met a girl says she never forget my name
And the way she broke my heart causes her pain
What did you come here to say
Sorry don't mean much today
You'll get lost before you'll ever find your way

She said I did not know word from rhyme
She said I had lost her peace of mind
But I've seen trouble fly around your head
And I've seen lovers crowd around your bed
But should you want to see me again
I'm just miles from your front door
She said I had all but wasted time
She said I was just the kind of man
She always said would take her love
And turn him blind
But I've seen trouble fly around your head
And I've seen lovers crowd around your bed
But should you want to see me again
I'm just miles from your front door

Fallen Out Of Love
05:26
|
|||
|
Said just go now get out of this place
I care not for the tears on your face
The track marks on your arms are not scars
They're my heart bleeding all over the place
But you were young
You were scared
You didn't know what love was, did you
And I have fallen out of love
Heard you're back now out of the streets
Waiting for money to come
Heard you're dying but back on your feet
The silence has rendered me numb
But you were young
You were scared
You didn't know what love was, did you
And I have fallen out of love
