The Strawman
04:17
|
|||
Though the desert days may take my life
They won’t take my soul, they won’t take my pride
Cuz when the strawman comes, got my eyes so wide
Cuz I’ve been to the mountain. I’ve seen the light
If the desert night, should call my name
In my deepest dreams, in my desert haze
If death shall come - it sets my soul free
To the great unknown, to my desert peace
If the desert love, should take my heart
With her desert perfume and her eyes like stars
If her loves grows cold, howl at the moon
Dig a desert hole, for my desert gloom

I get so tired baby
I can barely think
Trial by fire lately
Most everywhere it seems
So keep your eyes wide open
Don’t you even blink
So shut your mouth for just one moment
Don’t you even think
Takes a little getting used to maybe
We’ll have to wait and see
Sometimes life is like a locomotive
Coming this way
Dont stop, never stop now
Got you surrounded
Put all your hands where I can see
Gonna walk, gonna run, I'm going to fly now
Be anywhere just not with me
So keep your eyes wide open
Don’t you even blink
So shut your mouth for just one moment
Don’t you even think
Takes a little getting used to maybe
We’ll have to wait and see
Sometimes life is like a locomotive
Coming this way
Does it make it any easier to swallow
That it’s comin from me?
The conversation rings a little bit hollow
At least as far as I can see
Takes a little getting used to maybe
We’ll have to wait and see
Sometimes life is like a locomotive
Coming this way

The Garden
04:11
|

Hard rain
It's coming down like fists of gold
And here's a dollar for your soul
as you lay down, play dead, don't make a sound
I liked it better when you remembered that you are god
Won't leave you out there in the cold
while you were draped in the king's clothes as you bathed in the sunlight's sweet rays, well
I liked it better when you remembered that you were whole.
I liked it better when you still pretended you were home.
First blood
It's raining down like chemicals
But don't you tell me you’re afraid cuz some mad man sits in an office
I liked it better when you remembered you are the one
I liked it better when you remembered
you're stardust, you’re golden, you're a billion year old carbon,
we've got to get ourselves back to the garden
Don't speak
There's not a word you need to say
It isn’t like you didn't know how
To rise up from dark nights and coffins
I liked it better when you remembered that you are love
I liked it better when you didn’t just do as you’re told
I liked it better when you still remembered
you’re spirit, eternal
the keys to the kingdom
we've got to get ourselves back to the garden
Dark night, dark song, soft light, sharp tongue
Long fight, long gone, long breath, come home
Dark night,heart song, soft light, sharp tongue
Long fight, headlong, wake up, come home

The Matador
04:15
|

Comin from the bottom and back into the middle
You said that someone got him, why don’t you come and get him?
Told me you forgot it, but now you say you miss it.
Just hold on for a moment, cuz I can’t even hear ya
hold on for a moment cuz I can’t even feel ya
I’m just a robber who’s been diggin up graves
I’m just a matador aware of my fate
I’m just a martyr with no one to save
I’m just a meteor exploding in space
I’m just a meteor that’s glowing in space
Ohh, it feels like a lifetime tonight
Ohh, there’s never a right time
Come around here another time
Don’t come around with another lie
Cuz no one told you there’s not a right time to die
It’s just a clusterfuck the time that it takes
I just won’t wallow in my time and then waste it
I had a dream last night that I had a taste
Sometimes I wish you would just shut up and face it
Sometimes I wonder what on earth you are chasing
I’m just a predator protecting my pride
I’m just a lunatic that’s locked in a lie
I’m just a fugitive with nowhere to hide
What makes you think you’d ever take me alive?
What makes you think I would just lay down and die?
Ohhh, feels like a lifetime….
I’m just an animal locked in a cage
I’m just a criminal consumed in my rage
I’m just a visitor arriving too late
I’m just a minister too numb to my faith
Well, I’ve been going and growing for days
I’ve been racing and chasing the chase
I’ve been facing my face much too late
I’ve been wasting my days with such haste
But oooh
I’ve seen the light, it shines like gold
Rising up on freedom’s shore
I’ll be the space here in between
Our days, our dreams, our destiny
Comin from the bottom and back into the middle

Awake

You were born to wake up
You were born to be new
You were born to be light
You were born to be true
You were born to be love
You were born to be life
You were born to be the day
You were born to be the night
You were born to be moon
You were born to be stars
You were born to be Earth
You were born to be Mars
You were born to be kings
You were born to be queens
You were born to move mountains
You were born to sing
But, oh
You are the one
You've got to remember - you are the one
Oh, you are the one
You always remember, you are the one
You were born to be silent
You were born to be still
You were born to fly
You were born to heal
You were born to give
You were born to receive
You were born to be right here, right now
You were born to leave
You were born to make magic
You were born to breathe
You were born to make love
You were born to make peace
You were born such a treasure
You were born to smell rain
You were born to feel pleasure
You were born to feel pain
But oh...
You were born to wake up
You were born to be new
You were born to be light
You were born to be true
You were born to be love
You were born to be life
You were born to be the day
You were born to be the night
You were born for laughter
You were born to cry
You were born to be young
And you were born to die
You were born to inspire
You were born to trust
You were born of the sunrise
You were born of stardust
But, oh...

Hold your head high my only son
My precious blood, my champion
When you should fall along the way
You’re not alone, don’t be afraid
Day after day
I’ll always love you
You are the light
She floats along her slow parade
She walks out on the salty waves
And as the moon lights up her face
She casts her spells out into space
This must be the place
I’ll wait here for you
You are the light
Stars in the sky. Oh, mother earth
This blessed life - sweet surrender
Help us remember what we were
The innocence of our rebirth
We bathe in light
We’re blinded by you
You are the light

Mexico
02:30

When I was a baby
My mom wrapped me in blankets
Now I’m feelin shaky
And I can’t seem to shake it
When I was a little boy
I went to the city
One day I’ll go to Mexico
And I’ll make something pretty
When I was under the desert stars
I’d play all night long
I’d dance until the morning came
Then I’d sing my song
And when the night returned
I’d do it all again
Go fly, my little bird
Just remember where you’ve been
I remember my mother
Prettiest I’ve ever seen
How she would read me stories
Until I fell asleep
Now I’m always workin
And, man, I get so tired
But when I see the ocean
I always feel inspired

The Saint
04:40

Well I’ve been treading water
It’s getting harder and harder to breathe
The seas are getting darker
It’s getting harder and harder to see
Well, we laughed til we cried
We cried til we laughed
Did you see the white light?
Did it all go to black?
It was a merciless end to an impeccable life
And I’d give up my life for one more moonlit night
And the pallbearers there, well, they shed a great tear
And the faultlines we tread, they were never quite clear
But, didn’t you fight? Didn’t you scream?
Didn’t we dance? Didn’t you dream?
It’s all just a dream. But do we wake up?
And doesn’t it feel like there’s never enough
Oh, you can run, you can run
But you’re goin nowhere
You can climb you can crawl
But you’re already there
But oh. Lift your head to the light
Hold the light to your soul.
Well I’ve been treading water
It’s getting harder and harder to breathe
Cuz they told you tales of triumph and treasure
And it’s all been a lie
They gave you gold for your heartbeat
A prize for your pride
And the pallbearers there, well, they shed a great tear
And the faultlines we tread, they were never quite clear
But oh. Lift your head to the light
Hold the light to your soul.
Light shines light
Life. Breathe life.
Light shines light
Life. Breathe life.
