Shadow of Steel
There’s something about you
that catches the light right
It could be your glare, more likely the sight
of you splitting up there
as we gulp and we stare, you uncork your chest
like a hole through the floor
You got me, you got, you got me wanting
You got me wanting a hole through my floor
And the higher you rise, the deeper the hole
A balloon let loose with a shadow of steel
that’s cutting so deep into what I don’t know
And what of the small hand
that let your string go?
You got me, you got, you got me wanting
You got me wanting a shadow of steel
And where crazy flyer, are you gonna go?
Are you up for wherever the wind takes you to?
And what will crazy flying turn you into?
It’s probably worth trying, to hell if you know!
You got me, you got, you got me wanting
You got me wanting a flight from my mind

Already Found

Already Found
Runnin’ around
all over town
Looking for something
I already found
Gave it my time, every last dime
Goes without sayin’
I’ve been losin’ my mind
I used to know
which way to go
Used to believe
I was running the show
Fallin’ apart right from the start
But I know it’s real
what I feel in my heart
And I’m diggin’ in, playin’ to win
Placin’ my bets
as the wheel starts to spin
Somehow I’m down
on the wrong side of town
Looking for something
I already found
Practically gone
no sign of dawn
Ain’t even sure where it is I belong
I wait for the call, all summer and fall
Asking myself
what made everything stall
Runnin’ around, stuck on the ground
Lookin’ for something I already found

Don't Look Too Close

Don’t Look Too Close
Don’t look too close but don’t move too fast
Get yourself to work don’t think don’t crash
Oooh what banquet what a bash
Food for a village, now in the trash
with the broken glass and the plastic bags
With shiny name tags and the charity flags
You’re thirty smile for dirty plates
Look how politely you took your place
Ooo what a servile industry
What are we serving
and who pays the fee
For the broken glass... etc.
Oh you know we know it’s wrong
But oh, we tell ourselves
we’ve got to keep on moving on
All the wasted lives
we’re leading on and on and on and on
Cause no one wants to pay
for a downer song, no, but to live in a song
Can it be so wrong?

Whatever You Want

Whatever you Want
Been caught in a daze
God knows what I said
Oh what can I say
You really got to my head
We’ve all been there before
We all know how it feels
Something happens and then
You’re head over heels
And whatever you want from me
Oh I’ll give it to you free
Yeah there ain’t too much I
Wouldn’t do, I
Wouldn’t do for you
Saw through the disguise
Through yours I saw mine
All could’ve been lies
What was said at the time
You done it again now babe
Tell me what can I do
Maybe I should just go
But while I’m thinking it through…

Slowlight
Evening smears the sky with slow light leaving
Evening pulls me in and I can smell the sun
Bounce ripe off the grass
As two millipedes trace
The complications of an old leaf
It's wrinkles fringed with their feet
While the sea distantly
Ruminating indigoing scenes
the sky dreams
But only pretends to sleep

Pacific Avenue

Pacific Avenue
Singin’ to the ocean
And all that’s still to come
The grass so green
In between
The guitar and the drum
An open case beside you
Andy comin’ down
All day long
Callin’ songs
People gather round
Oh Luke, my friend
I can see you now
On Pacific Avenue
Playin’ your heart out
Singin’ to the ocean
And all that’s come and gone
Safe to say
You found your way
Never took you long

Sorrow Song
You can work us
like we’re worthless ay ay
But we’re still gonna get the job done
You can treat us
like you’re heartless ay ay
But we still gotta bring food home
Sorrow like a mountain ay ay
That’s been blown out for a coal mine
Sorrow like a barren home town
Where the farmer’s forced
to grow down.
No no ay ay blown out for a coal mine
So welcome to the USA ay ay
we pay ICE and we look away
we look away
Sorrow like a mountain ay ay
That’s been blown out for a coal mine
Sorrow like a barren home town
McDonalds took the old farm ground.

Out On Your Own

Out on Your Own
Time rollin’ by like
leaves on the wind
Something tells you
you got to begin
Open eyes fixed on
a distant memory
Comin to another day
you never thought you’d see
Been out on your own
such a long time
Got nothing to prove anymore
You woke up today
with a new mind
A feeling that you can’t ignore
And now you know for sure
Oh the same old games don’t
mean a thing to you
Soldiered on far too long
and all at once you’re through
the wheels start turning slow
but you’ll be flying soon
Listen in on the wind
and hear a different tune

Loose For The Wind

Loose for the Wind
Here tiptoeing the tasty edge
of a truly dumb idea
No use lying, magma pit
you look pretty lit from here
So yell at me please don’t do it
You got a beautiful thing why ruin it
and you’re so bad try to blame your dad
Yeah yell at me please don’t do it
You got a beautiful thing why ruin it
and you’re so bad you make your mom sad
Here tiptoeing the tasty edge
of a terrible idea
No use staring down at it,
your steering’s never clear - Slow down
But all your stitches are loose for the wind
and longing
Just dump my mind into
the currents and crack it open
Oh all your stitches are loose for the wind
and longing

Pine Trees
Woods took us back at last
We’re wandering the vaulting halls of pine
We’re wandering the vaulting halls of pine
Sound settles softer through
The green, the light caught up in early leaves
The green, the light caught up in early leaves
If I could pray I’d raise the days
like these pine trees,
If I knew how
I’d pray up trees like these.
Three sitting by the stream
just watching gnats sew up the old sun beams
just watching gnats sew up the old sun beams
If I could pray I’d pray in the wake
If I could pray I’d pray in the wake
the wake of these
the wake of these
If I could pray, I’d pray in the leaves

I Wish I Knew

I Wish I knew
The rain is comin’, we watch the clouds
What I’ve been thinking, you said out loud
I wish I knew what I know now
I wish I could go back somehow
But we all know it can’t be done
by you or me or anyone
You start to wonder if you’ve gone
The wrong direction far too long
I wish I knew which way to turn
So many things I’ll never learn
Open up your tired eyes
See the sun about to rise
