Silent Liars
(Chorus)
Silent liars
Lovers 'til the end of time
Moving to music
Dance to their song
Kiss and don't tell
Lovers 'til the end of time.
Working on his broken heart
She tries to court him proudly
Greed keeps her going
She wants his money badly
Something tells her
nothing's in her way.
Silent Liars
Lovers 'til the end of time.
Just playing along with her
He still prays just for himself
She is quite the lover though
But he knows she's after something else
He's just being someone's fool again
Like a child who doesn't understand the dark.
(Chorus)

Waiting For The Sky
Genocide is on its way now who will play and who will pray
the suicide men will work no less shooting drugs to stay in love with their pain
(Chorus)
And when the sun dies you'll be waiting for the sky and wondering how you're gonna get home
And when the sun dies you'll be waiting for the sky and wondering how you're gonna get home
And when the sun dies you'll be waiting for the sky and wondering how you're gonna get home
(Bridge)
Take the fate you're on your way
don't jump too fast your autograph
'cause you're the last one on the world
you must find the survivors
(Chorus)
Stars are bright they signal life your only hope to get you through the fight
because wouldn't it be nice and sweet if flying saucers came and rescued you and me?
(chorus)

Three Minute Rambling
I wish you well
hope you don't change
I hope you're going
to find your way
Nobody wants you
to feel hated
nobody wants you to be confused.
(chorus)
All this is
is a three minute rambling
it may leave you down
may leave you dangling
up high in the sky
wondering why
take your time
take your time
Don't close any doors
someone is there
left in the darkness
without a trail near
all you need is nothing
a smile on your face
and people will respect you
or reject you.
(chorus)

Whistling In The Wind
She wonders how it will feel to be alone
he cries and holds on saying, "please don't let go"
Then they work things out and stay together
she says, "another long month."
he says, "better get better."
(chorus)
But they won't let go
because whistling in the wind is easy
but there's no air to blow
and life don't seem so breezy
and there's nothing to show
whistling in the wind is easy
but there's nowhere to go
and life don't seem so breezy but Lord knows it's still a storm.
Family preaches to each siblings' lover
Can't keep those crazy feelings between each other
and friends don't understand what's best for you
they say, "you know you've always got my place to run to."
(chorus x 2)

Skies Fade To Black
Skies fade to black
Sure as night I'm right I'm ready
Get my life on the tracks
Drift again when things get steady
I'm on my own
Can never find any comfort zone
No friends nor foes
A strange life that nobody knows
Just settling in
Got no road trips planned this winter
Don't change your mind
Don't want to climb a tree that splinters
Just worrying about you
Little things that people do
Changing their minds
On everything they swore they knew
(Chorus)
Lovers never wander
Lonesome in the rain
Nothing ever changes in life's guessing game
Couldn't believe you love me
Never believe it could be so right
Without me doing anything at all.
(Chorus)
Skies fade to black
Sure as night I'm right I'm ready
Get my life on the tracks
Drift again when things get steady
I'm on my own
Can never find any comfort zone
No friends nor foes
A strange life that nobody knows

Living In The Light Of The Morning
I'm dreaming of a lady with a special way
She sends me shivers when I'm down all day
She picks me up takes my cares away
Living the light of the morning
She's smart and dreamy and has something to say
She watches herself and she knows how to pay
She built a fort of willow down in Oxford Bay
Living in the light of the morning
I try to live so I can't be down or bothered with what they say in town
We're worlds away from that world now
Living in the light of the morning
She has a way to calm me down
Her voice is a soothing gentle sound
Her charms are all I pine for now
Living in the light of the morning.
Thank you Lord for sending her my way
and I hope through you we can make each other's day
Be each other's little getaway
Living in the light of the morning
I'm dreaming of a lady with a special way
She sends me shivers when I'm down all day
She picks me up takes my cares away
Living the light of the morning
I try to live so I can't be down or bothered with what they say in town
We're worlds away from that world now
Living in the light of the morning
She has a way to calm me down
Her voice is a soothing gentle sound
Her charms are all I pine for now
Living in the light of the morning.
Living in the light of the morning

Loving All Of You Losing All Of Me
Why my heart's fading again?
I won't believe it anymore!
When love is there to make
What's the reason for?
Having no love inside
No desire left to give
I just want to be inside
Because that's the way I live.
You came expecting change
And a man who I can't be
I'm unable to rearrange
Expectations are boundaries
So I hope you'll understand
And just trust it's all ok
But I'm sure you'll change your plan
and we'll go our separate ways.
(Chorus)
I'll let you be free
can't be around me every single day
and I mean it when I say
Loving all of you won't ever mean
losing all of me.
So you're broken when I'm honest
and you suffer when I'm free
You spell out the doom upon us
but it would be sweet misery
You'll take it or leave it
The sun will set the same
No matter expectations
No matter how we'll remain.
(Chorus)
I don't want to let you in
Because we'll lose ourselves again
It's the end so let's begin
Another reckoning
(Chorus)

Love Song In The Silence

Love Song In The Silence
The night just tumbled in
and she's as fine as Dublin
Our souls talk like old friends again
and she finds all my pain and she takes it far away
the light surrounds us and we laugh
(Chorus)
My lady she's a love song she's a love song in the silence
My lady she's a love song she's a love song in the silence
We've been too long apart
broken many a heart
as she'd waited patiently throughout the years
and it's funny now to feel
nothing exists that isn't real
and I never felt all the other tears
(chorus)
We stare straight at the sun
in sands far from anyone
while we make love as the sunset fades away
love is eternity
never felt such certainty
we'll relive it on another summer day
(chorus)

Stranded In The Puzzle
Walking down Sunlit
There's another afternoon
We'll make it home by dark
If we slow down the moon.
We can reschedule
all life has to offer
for a Pescadero sunset
on some soft county road
You can be my escape
from the same old grind
Hunkered in the bunker
so beautifully blind
When songs do cure me
I feel this groove
But baby I know that's more
than you will ever do.
(Chorus)
And I'm stranded in the puzzle
and I'm living such a lie
While I'm talking in my muzzle
Tell me about your alibi
Find me again
On this abandoned hill
I'll have to leave soon
just to go downhill
But maybe just maybe
I'll be living a dream
if I can stay honest
If I ever want to scream.
(Chorus)

Down With The Clown

Down With The Clown
I can't believe I never cry
I think it's 'cause it'd hurt to try
I'd miss the winter hanging on
I never laugh
Just get along.
We're full of fear that's why we're here
Can't blame those holding up a mirror
We all want down with the clown
with all this karma raining down
I see the rainbows children drew
before the current storm blew through
Yesterday was dance and play
Today's some other kind of day
We may be better off than dead
Hanging by a pretty thread
My life is music so is yours
Livestream these couch potato tours.
So if they go to church and die
With their trucks with bright headlights
Will be this the red state plague
redeemed the holy death brigade
This country is a cold dead ghost
in the time when we need it the most
back to living sweet and true
we've got no business left to do.
I can't believe I never cry
I think it's 'cause it'd hurt to try
I'd miss the winter hanging on
I never laugh
Just get along.
We're full of fear that's why we're here
Can't blame those holding up a mirror
We all want down with the clown
with all this karma raining down

Greed Is A Crime

Greed Is A Crime
You see it all the time
Don't you know that greed is a crime?
Well there's panic in the air
They don't want to play fair
Do you think people really care deep down?
Well they'd run you against a wall
if you're too much on the ball
When they pass you for a dime
You can see that greed is a crime
(Chorus)
Greed is a crime
Greed is a crime
Push 'em down while you climb (How many saints must they rob blind?)
Can't you see that greed is a crime
Black market real estate
poverty scorned by hate
bunch of losers who win
and you know that greed is a crime
Can't get ahead until you're dead
with all these phonies breaking bread
and you wonder why they sin
but you know that greed is a crime
(Chorus)
Fools with all the tools
while the hearts are torn apart
it ain't that smart to kick the saints
you can see how far it takes you
until one day emptiness wakes you
to know the stories evil paints
(Chorus)

I'm Sad When The Good People Die
(Chorus)
To the dark side of the road
We've been spending all our time
But I still feel the good around
and I'm sad when the good people die
Fame is a drunken spotlight
Illuminating all who are lost
I'll play for God and the sun
Why should that come at a cost?
(Chorus)
I'm sad when the good people die
These heroes who's tears I've shed
Footsteps I've followed
truths I've told
who've climbed so far but never out ahead
except inside when they died
they knew inside they did right
It was they who burned bright
I'm sad when the good people die.
(Chorus)

Prison Of Pain
I used to play
Day and night!
Now something just ain't right
(Chorus)
I'm in a prison of pain
I'm in a prison of pain
all my time down the drain
I'm in a prison of pain
Well some folks say
just to get it checked out
I know what they'd say
without a doubt
(Chorus)
If I feel like this now
Compared to how it used to be
I'm sitting here wondering
what's gonna become of me?
(Chorus)
My hands back and feet
So sore!
You see me smiling
but I'm fighting a war!
(Chorus)
Watch me play a skinny guitar
When I know it was the big one that got me this far
(Chorus)
