Keeping Us Apart
03:55

You can pay the driver
I'm tapped out
This way
My love is for hire
I'm not living to retire
I'm gathering
I love your ways
I think that
My life you'll save
She gives me a feeling
Like the moon involved in pine
Everyone's about
Keeping us apart
You can drink, but you
Won't get nothing done
And the setting of the sun
Is not as painful
As watching it come
In a joking way that's serious
She gives me a feeling
Like the moon involved in pine
Everyone's about
Keeping us apart
The spending spree is over
And the clothes don't fit
And we're on the color cover
Of The Gazette
Hanging out inside from the outside
Not cheating, but at your door
Me and Crow
Crossing the street
Do you ever smile?
Or just with your eyes?
So babe you know
Where my mind's been
Not so far from you again
And I'm going again

Born on a Planet

Right or wrong is not hard to find
Born on a planet
That never seen a thing
All you want is peace here
Blonde hair, window wind
Foot on the gas
Thermopolis to Casper
Cool you down
In summer
The preacher came from the hills
Into the valley
To throw you down
Never could
Fireworks in a mirror float
In a sky so dumb
Reflecting down
All you
It was first the teacher
Who made the grade
The rolled up Cosmo
Under your head
The ground so hard
Stars a bed

Nostalgia for the Mud
03:41

Get here quick as you can
Ride lightning, Ativan
It's just
Nostalgia for the mud
I'm feeling bad, not too bad
To leave you mad
Started out a dork
Ended up adored
The offender
Never wants to make amends
Bumping my fingers past
The chain link fence
Je m'en fous
What you do
Falling down falling up
In and out of skull towns
Making shade
This cannot be your first mistake
Meat suit, sleeping in a lion's den
See the mist rise
Humid evening moors
Just a taste to quench my thirst
This cannot be your first
I know you're living
I know you're living
Living out of a room
And unfound
How many times
You turn your back on someone
Til' your spinning around
Get here quick as you can
Ride Lexapro, Temazepam
It's just
Nostalgia for the mud
Je m'en fous
What you do
Falling down falling up
In and out of skull towns
Making shade
This cannot be your first mistake
Meat suit, sleeping in a lion's den
See the mist rise
Humid evening moors
Just a taste to quench my thirst
This cannot be your first
Get here quick as you like
You're eyes are of day
I'm staying the night
I haven't seen a morning in 200 days
A confluence of stories
On the balcony
A full moon
Pulling purple chains
4 wheels
Lizard streets again
Clock time
In digital red

Cars in the Yard
04:49

I was named after the Jordan River
Where Jesus was first baptized
Now it's just a tourist garden
Floating lies
Cars in the yard
Flowers growing through
Tired of the living
Tired of giving
Tired of getting too
Pinecone baby
Reach out for a peaceful pinecone
It's October time again
And our eye's tell we know
I was named after the Jordan River
Where Jesus was first baptized
Now it's just a tourist garden
Floating lies
Cars in the yard
Flowers growing through
Tired of the living
Tired of giving
Tired of getting too
Pinecone baby
Reach out for a peaceful pinecone
It's October time again
And our eye's tell we know
An inflatable pool
On the backyard grass
With a couple of
Invisible strangers
In the curve of July moon
You know the night
So don't forget the tune
Potpourri grove
Sliding through your summer
2 lane road
Listen to your heart
And then think about it
Daddy went to the Jordan River
Closed his eyes,
Made a connection
He'd never forget
Cars in the yard
Flowers growing through
Tired of the living
Tired of giving
Tired of getting too
Pinecone baby
Reach out for a peaceful pinecone
It's October time again
And our eye's tell we know
And our eye's tell we know

Serenade #9

I long to taste the booze on your breath
And hear you speak in song
Dark as rose red
Cutting into night
I feel finest with a still mind
I long to taste the booze on your breath
And hear you speak in song
Got to be ready
For what you don't see
What you don't know
What you don't be
Don't get too glad
Don't get too sad
Don't get too much
Of what you never had
I long to taste the booze on your breath
And hear you speak in song
In this world of society and recognition
You know I'd rather be alone
Then get mixed in their competition
Where they're always number one
I long to taste the booze on your breath
And hear you speak in song
Got to be ready
For what you don't see
What you don't know
What you don't be
Don't get too glad
Don't get too sad
Don't get too much
Of what you never had
I long to taste the booze on your breath
And hear you speak in song

Array of Veils
04:16

Above the
Arc of constellation
Yoga for poverty
Array of veils
Parachute in sail
And
From the past
Fortune is cast
It's so inconsequential baby
Harrowing and carrying
Array of veils
The height of covertness
And
From the past
Fortune is cast
The blow of mercy
The dog is wild
Makes a sound
Like wind
Through a bone
What a terror scene
Living in between
Then said the past
Parachute in sail
Array of veils
Fortune is cast
Paying for an anesthetic
Sure to lift a soul
Off the ground
Sunset, starlight
A mournful chill
Array of veils
Where honor is forgotten
Array of veils
Every soul will ache

Brenda, Brenda
I can't be you
I can't bend you
I can't spend you
Forever 21
17 million miles away from everyone
When reaching for the top
Failure is not an enemy
If you never stop
All the world is covered in dust
Ruby lips
And smiles of beauty
She says
I don't wear a watch
I just feel time
Brenda bend dear
Coffee cake and
Cream soda
All over you
Forever 21
18 million miles away from everyone
Brenda
Rabbits
Out of a hat
Santa Barbara to
Portland town
Just to lay your dark hair down
Forever if you want
16 thousand million miles away
From everyone

Ballad for F
02:51
|

I have nowhere to go
And I'm ready to go
And I'm not sure if I'll come back
And I see to the river floor
Roots appear in erosion
Will you really say forever
Always?
God bless the clouds
That are covering me
If I could get
Darker as she
They are holding me
Pretty as a
Cherokee Rose
That's how my baby goes
Slick as sunlight
Cool as stark star dreams
Clouds about to storm
Making me warm
Say forever
I love the look
When you let it all fall

I sleep in the repair shop
As fine as iron sharpens iron
Will you lean back
If doves exist
I wanna make a
Fire within you love think
About where we're going
Same old shit
Down at
Tristram Shandy's
Saw her backstage
Front page new age
But strange
Connected and down
Although I try
I cannot unlock your changes
Lower your hair
From your warm window
Moon glow falls
Through waterfall walls
Amanda came
Vanilla fixed
Feed the beast
Or pay the bills
At least one or the other
Kills
Promises
Don't hold the reins
Flatline on a tightrope
Everything is going broke
Who holds the reins?
Who holds the reins?
I've been lying
The path's been clear
It's been me
Lying in wait for me
Here

Canopy

I don't like your dog
I'm only here for the roses
I don't like your kitchen baby
I only want to hear the mix I made you
I don't know why
I only kiss your forehead
Yeah you're my friend
I never want to live without your
Canopy
You know I actually like
You on guard
I gotta tell you well
You're one funny duck
If you unscrew my countenance
That point
Thoughts are river flow
And new lips on
Sunset skin
A little thought I could pursue
Four beers reminds me of you
I wanna feel you
Lay you down and your body rise
From the very first
Time that I saw you
We knew we would let it happen
I hear the
Summer in her voice
Winter on the table
In the kitchen smoking
Too late to mention
I see us in the mirror
I know your name
Feeling for your affection
And when you close the door
I'll be walking home a straight line
