Crooked Road

Last man on earth with nothing to do
Wish I could see the sky so blue
Empty streets at the end of the day
I’ll wait around til you come my way
Look out baby
Don't go down that crooked road
Something shady
Don't go down that crooked road
The children here they laugh and they play
Sign on a lamp post shows a runaway
Flashing lights from the top of some stairs
But i’m no fool i ain’t goin up there
I'll keep my head, I can't do no more
You're the only one I'd let in my door
Lookin up as I walk down this lane
I’m struck by lightning inside my brain

Emily Goodbye

A friend told me
I think you know about him
I’m thinking it over and you just smile
I am not worried
I’ve seen it all before
Given time you’re gonna walk all over me
Won’t let it wash me away
Not gonna change my mind
Let it begin
Everybody knows you can do voodoo with your eyes
Nice try, Emily, nice try
2:
I was driving slowly
I saw an eagle soaring high
He’s leaving his worries and so am I
It’s raining lies
They leave me standing here
Remembering times how it felt to fly so free
I’ll fly from the cage
Not gonna waste my time
Fighting the wind
Everybody knows you can do voodoo with your eyes
Nice try, Emily, so fine
Everybody knows you can do voodoo with your eyes
Goodby Emily, goodbye

Hope to See You

A long time ago when dreams filled the air
The storm came in, it took us unaware
Some times were hard, some times were really rough
But soon we had to say we’d had enough
Hope to see you
I’d be thrilled to see you
We came so far let's heal those scars
Hope to see you
I’ll be glad to see you
We've been through enough
And I hope we see it through
2:
We dug everywhere searching treasure
We dumped it here I seem to remember
It was late at night, we felt so uptight
Everyone is gonna know when we make things right
Hope to see you
I’d be thrilled to see you
We came so far forgive those scars
Hope to see you
I’ll be glad to see you
We've been through enough
And I hope we see it through

Friends in My Head
04:20
|
|||
|
Look around this old town
Not much left anymore
There’s only one open store
Sirens scream chaos reigns supreme
The big wheels say this is a war
Paramilitary police
Guarding every door
I don’t have to feel sad, got my friends they live in my head
I won’t be sad or feel bad, long as I got these friends in my head
Shifty eyes that paralyze
They make their way through the crowd
We’re all on edge one foot on the ledge
But talking is strictly not allowed
Someone sneezed and we all freeze
That freak’s got something up his sleeve
A voice said to stay
One said get away
Another told me to keep calm
When it all went down it came out wrong
Someone screamed he’s got a bomb
Now they’ve got me on the floor
I wonder how it all ends
They tell me things, these friends in my head
Don’t take away the friends in my head
I don’t have to feel sad
While I’ve got these friends in my head.

In Single File
03:35

Ready set go, lets begin with some crazy New Age choir
Later on we continue with raging political fire, your man’s a liar
I’ve been dreaming, I’m thinking ‘bout leaving
In a little while, in single file
I’ve been wrapped up in losing conversations
For a long long time
Spreading some truth gets you nowhere why even try
Somewhere deep in a canyon they’re shouting incredible lies
while I’m high and dry
I’ve been dreaming, I’m thinking ‘bout leaving
In a little while, in single file
I’ve been wrapped up in tired interrogations
messing up my mind
I've been thinking ‘bout the truth now
Never losing track
It’s cause and effect now
Forever going back
No one believes in cutting any slack
Living beside someone’s madness; it’s a terrible grind
Taking a chance is part of living it can bring you hope
A little peace of mind.
I’ve been dreaming, I’m thinking ‘bout leaving
In a little while, in single file
I’ve been looking for polite conversation
Getting hard to find.
I’ve been dreaming, I’m thinking ‘bout leaving
In a little while, in single file
I’ve been living with a slight hesitation
It’s getting hard to smile.

Slow Push
04:13
|

|
Last seven days all late night shifts
He locks the counter and goes home
Someone’s at the back door, can’t tell who it is
His fragrant sinsemilla sets the tone
It’s a slow push for him once more
Slow push down the trail
He’s lookin’ for some heaven goin’ door to door
Some dreams get lost in the mail
Keeps stepping out, smiles from ear to ear
Sometimes he sees beyond the pale
When he talks to himself his voice isn’t clear
It’s like a hammer to a nail
The slow push of his life
The slow push of this life
