Lady Day

Go on get high with those girls on the beaches
Forty-three and you still want to try
Whats the problem with you getting naked
In the public eye

Park your car at the drive-in near Delmar
Pump your gas just enough for the ride
A one way ticket is all that you needed
On the beach in July

Buy an icecream truck off a lady
Who was never around in the day (and attempt an impossible move)
Take a picture of your last day (watch a child, raise a baby)
Cause it's never the same in a memory (Cause it's never as fun as you thought it'd be)
Telescope eyes are on every corner
Images can appear without clothes
Throw a towel on every last baby
In a woman's clothes

Wash the salt from your body with pleasure
Pull the drapes or the pubic will cry
What's an R-rated flick from the forties
In a different time


tracks



Lifeline


Give your someone focused eyes
Penetration takes sometime
With all these things we share allike
Curled upon the couch each damn night

So comes the time, I tried to l tried to lift my hand
Some of the time, I walked away instead
So comes the time, you crossed that yellow line
And I wandered

So don't, no, take, take a look at your faded life
Why are you waiting on the other side
And don't, no, take, take a look at yourself each night
Another day another whole lifetime

So drink your water til you cry
You're driving across blind
With all these things you thought you'd hide
And as a woman I smiled



tracks



Liquid Highway


Leavin with your father
Never turning round
Unfold
Peace within a moment
Patiently we act alone

Oh, telling the stories of some other glory
Make it up as you go
Guided by a liquid highway
Then, burn it to the bone
Hide a love, then you, hide a life you loath

In our own beaten nation
Within our family home
Oh, why are we pretending
To honor each others own

Cause we're telling the story of somebody's glory
Makin it up as you go
guided by a liquid highway
Then burn it to to the bone
so, Hide a love, then you hide a life you loath

Scat...you've gone to far 3x
For you, you, you're takāin hold over your soul
you can't fake it
for you...you, you're takin hold over your soul

Patiently we act alone
Patiently, patiently, In harmony, all alone



tracks



Make It Happen


gonna make it happen,
a far reach from home
Like giving spring life, a mother
Gotta turn it over, unless you're feeling used
Unless youāre feeling alone, yeah...

gonna make it happen
ten years come and gone
a lonely problem thatās keeping me
from moving on, so

hold, hold me high enough to feel the sun, oh
hold, hold me hard enough to feel your love now

gonna make it happen
you'd always assume
that poor, poor child became the ignorant fool
gotta turn it over
and prove them all wrong
A simple task you never thought would take so long

gonna make it happen
they're sending them my way and now I'm feeling smothered
gotta turn it over to settle down my mind
Please calm me down before I feel like giving in (up)

don't make it hard again before I fall
before I realize there's nothing wrong
don't make it hard again
there's nothing I can't solve
Just make it real... calm...



tracks



Star Shepard


Gazing up, undress with the stars
And their secrets live on
Deny your love
Convince him that...
You'll come to his side

So you open your world into the night,
Keeping alive your day lit life
Shading down to night

chorus
Hiding behind disappointment
Contrary lives, and fearless ones
Give them away or you you'll
Follow some voice to a far away place
Where nothing gets done

Compare your rocks
Awake to a dream
You were handed a choice.
Adjust your eyes
Walk under
The remains of the day
Give shadows a chance to fight

Oh, take me to that far away place
Where, nothing ever stands in my way
Oh that freedom is getting me high,
Oh lying on my back legs spread wide.



tracks



Miracle Child


I've got a friend with one eye of a ghost
Carried her back, holding onto a past road
Candlelight starring right through you
We are, holding onto someone, yeah,...yeah

Roll the dice and gamble away your days end
Through a miracle, you happen to get her in bed
I dream of life without walls inside my head
We are holding onto someone, instead

Starring through the cold
Oh, miracle child
Taking her through and taking her home
Cause everyone's capable of, losing everything
And everyone's as honest as me, yeah...yeah

Broken down, behind your fairytale news
Caught ya down and cryin'
Nothings right, when it all comes down to you
We are holding onto someone, like you...

Taking me through my head
Staring thru my wall
I've gotta make it one more time again, oh...
Taking me through my head
is like losing everything
I'm gonna make it one more time again, yeah...yeah



tracks



Sweet Diamond Day


take me over and run with me past the dreamers
A little nudge on my side, A little push through the door

Caving into a mountain atop a lonely home
Floating over and over a common rose

Find a way to make time move a little faster
Cause I have all this time in the world to kill

For a Sweet Diamond Day
When the whole world fades away
Have a Sweet Diamond Day
For a girl who wants to play

Ya try to figure it out in the midst of something more
Make a break for the sea, spend the night on the shore

You're always dying to hear those sacred words ya can't ignore
So come along and laugh, baby, don't be shy

so Run baby, you're gonna...2x
It's another guy here and your fathers affair
There's so much pressure in our lives...oh..ohhh



tracks



Trap


driving up and down to view you
Need to analyze your life
is there murder in you
there are things you can't hide

You'll have to wait to see my side now
what's going down baby
The crying families know inside

What they took you for in your life before
need to hold you tight
what they took you for
in your life before
need to hold you tight

Witnesses shy from you
they were forced through your life
And there's no more chances to
find a victim for some other crime

You'll have to wait to see what's going down
What's going down baby
The crying families know inside//



tracks



Unaltered


I've been taking my time
Rolled to one side
Follow through my day again,
But no one made it til noon, rolled through the door
Took care of my afternoon.

Cause I've been skippin through my days
Back when, everything was grey
You were crashing hard, unaltered

Racing to your only shrine
That built everything
Chasing the hungry hand all day and everyday
Just call me a fool...

Working your heart and your soul
Into something that never gets old,
Yeah, it's worth everything

yeah, yeah, yeah, oohhh...
Just call me a fool...

So I've been standing in line
Night after night,
Waiting for each day to begin
But, no one waited til noon, stood by my side
Took care of my afternoon

Cause I've been skippin through my days,
Back when. everything was great
You were crashing hard, unaltered

Racing to your only shrine
That built everything
Working your heart and your soul
Into something that never gets old,
Yeah, it's worth everything

So you can be good and you can be bad
You can be mad and terribly sad
You can be wiser, oh
Going round in circles
