Fiery Crash
You, look if you want to - i've got nothing here to hide from you
inside you is the whole world though you may not understand it's true.
And if there was a fiery crash
helplessly watching it all burn
it will all be gone in a flash
nothing survives but these words
these words.
See all that you make me and all the wreckage you will find in me
inside me is a future and if it ever does arrive, we’ll see
Take what you have to whatever money just can’t buy for you
Outside there is a whole world I can feel it when we speak it’s true
And if there was a fiery crash
helplessly watching it all burn
it will all be gone in a flash
nothing survives but these words
these words.
See all that you make me…

Prentiss’ Song
You’re in my sun you’re in my moon
You’re in my coffee in my spoon
You’re in my walk in my fog in my afternoon jog.
You are in my car and in the far reaches the farthest star
My telephone, this microphone
You’re in everything I own.
You’re in my arms and legs in the daze and haze of the
crazy flights of alcohol fueled Friday nights
You are in all my Georgian days you’re in all of my Southern ways.
You give me sight I give you sound a left and right foot we are bound
I’ll never mind the pain or the rain
or a pound or two that I might gain.
I’ll never mind the cold or the heat or the noise of the street
In the middle of that New York City night.
I’ll never mind the time I spent waiting in line.
Or the fine for speeding or time I cheated and I’ll never mind
a broken heart again.
So, never mind my selfish heart or my vain restart
like a map of New Orleans under water under fire
in the Quarter of your dreams and desires and in
The young fresh eyes you designed that will carry you
Carry you through your days and your nights
I’ll carry you too in my fight to make things right.
To make it alright.
I’ll make it alright.
We’ll make it alright.
You’re in my dreams and in the seams and all the
In betweens the photo files in all the miles
And years that we’ve crossed and we lost and found again.

TROUBLE
I first met trouble - When you showed me the light
I came out of the cold darkness - You shined so bright
I saw tomorrow glowing
The words you said were knowing
All your pretty teeth were showing
Yeah, you did it just right…
That was when – all this trouble began
Mistakes are made and that’s living - I leave mine far behind
You gotta open your eyes – he said you’ve been walking around blind
I stepped with trepidation
And I broke my hesitation
And soon I felt those good vibrations
That led me down the darker road…
This was when – I got in trouble once again
CHORUS:
Now I’m doing my time
It’s so plain to see
Paying for this crime
I’ll pay for eternity
Doesn’t matter how I plea
Cuz this trouble’s not you - This trouble is me
I follow this trouble - I watch it watching me
I think “the more I know about this trouble - The better prepared I’ll be”
Your sweetness did deceive me
I’m guilty please believe me
You gotta know this aint easy
Suddenly it all came clear…
This was when – I knew it would never end.
Trouble.
Trouble.

I Faded Out
03:32
|

I faded out
The glass was painted so thin
And the fortunes fill the hands of only the special blowing in the wind. Leaving us to fend.
An image on my wall frozen there in fear
A light may shine but not seen now
It’s pretty dark in here
It’s pretty dark in here.
No glorious thunderous fire.
Or waving victorious flags
No bbq’s or stories passed down
for our children’s muse
for our children’s children’s muse
There’s no real defeat
in a languid century lie
Where the envious kill and curl their watering mouths and turn into a smile
though empty and hollow disguised.
No glorious thunderous fire.
Or waving victorious flags
No bbq’s or stories passed down
for our children’s muse
for our children’s children’s muse

Wanting's For Sinners

Wantings for Sinners
it's not for me to say how the stars align in birth
how long we get to stay here standing on the earth.
wanting is only a foolish desire that ends most unhappily
take what your given without any fuss and you're free
It's not a lot to ask but asking is a sin of it's own
a darkness from my past i buried a long time ago.
nothings forever the tables do turn
you're just out of reach tell me when will i learn
wanting’s for sinners and sinning i do
but all that i long for is wrapped up in…
I prayed for it - i lied for it - i payed for it - and i cried for it
i carried it - i savored it - i buried it. i did.
It's not for me to see how the road ahead will wind
how much i will receive is a measurement not well defined
Begging or pleading will get you nowhere
but break your heart in two
to love and to lose is a saying from only a fool
the time that falls away is a love forever lost
A price so small to pay and we pay the ultimate cost.
nothings forever the tables do turn
you're just out of reach tell me when will i learn
wanting’s for sinners and sinning i do
but all that i long for is wrapped up in… you
I prayed for it - i lied for it - i payed for it - and i died for it
i carried it - i favored it - i buried it. i did.

Rocky Beach of Avalon
03:46
|
|||
Throwing sticks into the waves they disappear into the
White, turning water carried down to where my biggest fears abound
Lay waiting
Quiet, Still
On the rocky beach of Avalon.
To come down, down, down till I can’t feel the ground
Float among the garibaldi basking in the sun
At least I’m safe up here for now
On the rocky beach of Avalon.
The question’s never answered the truth is never told
will my angel follow me down to the sonic wells
of water sounds and giant swells of waves
that crash along the rocky beach of Avalon
Waves of sound follow me down
Waves of sound follow me around
It’s the end of the world
My eyes are on the little girl
who puts her toe into the shallow surf and then goes in
And there’s her friend
And there are no tears, as they disappear
below the rocky beach of Avalon.
Waves of sound follow me down
Waves of sound follow me around
down down down
till I cannot see or reach the ground
your arms around me like
a woven rope I’m swingin’ on
The waves of sound Scatter all around
as we throw the rocks into the sea………
of Avalon

Into the Falls
04:08
|
|||
Meet me on the wall – don’t say words or write letters to the others
We’ll walk into the falls and watch the fire burn
Watch the fire burn
Sirens fill the distance and skipping our stones all breaking the silence that only deep water knows, we watch the fire burn watch the fire burn
Shadows fall underneath the water – catch the flashing lights falling from the sky
If the rapture comes tonight – you and I will dance through the fire
We’ll burn up the night
I’ll wear your favorite shoes and the dress from your mother
Red of silk and fire – wait for lightning strikes - we’ll burn up the night.
We’ll decorate the moon with candles and a song with cigarettes we’ll lie
beneath our covered eyes we’ll feel the fire burn we’ll feel the fire
Shadows fall underneath the water – catch the flashing lights falling from the sky
If the rapture comes tonight – you and I will dance into the fire
We’ll burn up the night
