cheater
all you love is coming down
you have gone to ground
there's nothing left but the sound
of the tears in your heart
and the night comes apart
around you
if love is what you leave
then this hell that you believe
there's nothing left but to grieve
over holes burned of sin
in your perforated skin
too tight for you
if love is what you lost
then the lives you have crossed
celebrate the cost
of the nights that you burn
with each succeeding turn
of your screw
your love has gone to seed
it got twisted by the speed
that little taste became the need
for each secret greedy thrust
the little death of trust
inside of you
here's a penny for your pain
baby, let's not meet again
i'm done with you
your cheatings through - Track Name: all too tight
-
all too tight
i got this feeling but it's quarter to two
i got that feeling when i first met you
you know that feeling with a trembling knee
next thing your feeling is the deep of the need
you go pushin' it and pullin' it
and taking it over
gonna love it, gonna fight it
until you recover
'cause you want it and you need it
and it's never enough
it's a crazy mother sudden sweet taste
for that stuff
i got this feeling that we might get close
i dig the feeling of disposable clothes
you know that feeling when it's all too tight
and all your feeling is the crush of the night
you go pushin' it and pullin' it
and taking it over
gonna love it, gonna fight it
until you recover
'cause you want it and you need it
and it's never enough
it's a crazy mother sudden sweet taste
for that stuff
you go in and out and in and out of love
you go in and out and in and out of love
you go pushin' it and pullin' it
and taking it over
gonna love it, gonna fight it
until you recover
'cause you want it and you need it
and it's never enough
it's a crazy mother sudden sweet taste
for that stuff - Track Name: cried for love
-
cried for love
i cried for love but not for you
poor boys singing
i cried for love but not for you
poor boys singing
six guns to the wind, skies of fire
i cried for love but not for me
claxons ringing
i cried for love but not for me
the claxons ringing
six guns to the wind, skies of fire
i cried for love but not for peace
the black rain bringing
i cried for love but not for peace
the black rain bringing
six guns to the wind, skies of fire - Track Name: tea & sympathy
-
tea and sympathy
give it up girl don't live in a bottle
gotta learn to steer before you go full throttle
or you'll hit the wall, too close to call
take another sip just fall through the cracks
another road ahead puts the wind at your back
if you last that long, if you just stay strong
you're about as a big as a celery stalk
taking off the dial of your favourite clock
'cause you want to save time, well it's half past nine
somewhere
maybe i'm mad and maybe i'd dare
to take the time that it takes to care
if you missed last call, jumped that wall
from whiskey nights to heartsick days
running up a tab that your spirt pays
in sticks and stones, in broken homes
now i'm no saint, not one to talk
there's a great big life if you only stop
and maybe see, what else could be
right there - Track Name: empty walls
-
empty walls
i clutch the captive memory as i crawl across your sands
we're just a half from empty that's a feeling you can't stand
over all the hands we double when we treble cross the land
we're the pins for pretty bubbles, we're the capsule left unmanned
four empty walls
come falling down
four empty walls
come falling down
i trade the wind for embers from the third last cigarette
and i trace the anxious shadows as you leave in silhouette
i'm cut and running quarters, my two bits of blood to let
just following disorders, every sucker needs a bet
four empty walls
come falling down
four empty walls
come falling down
and all the things you've said and done
the likely tales, the kingdom come
the crashing rain, the beating drum
that sounds the toll of moon and sun
surpassing light or darkness runs
the threads of hope that could be spun
take heart, behold, you've just begun
find love in life my lonely one
four empty walls
come falling down
four empty walls
come falling down - Track Name: changes unmade
-
changes unmade
isn't that a funny thing
to try to call love
raise a hand
misunderstand
before belief becomes
a sharp embrace
the rouge, the race
rabbits will run
nothing here is ever near
a backhanded
look, at decisions you took
like incisions
we won't breathe a word about
your dirty little lies
isn't it a funny trip
that we try to hide
the bitter end
of let's pretend
disguised with a smile
the last escape
forget forsake
morning that comes
the monster kind is running blind
and we won't even
look, at the changes unmade
at the walls we engrave
with the tales of how
we never even tried - Track Name: screw top wine
-
screw top wine
here from what i don't remember
penny drops her thoughts for dimes
baby laughs and both look over
top to the belly with screw top wine
they sing all the songs about
the things they talk about
in rings they cannot move without
the sting of penny tasting doubt
there you see a book of lovers
touching pages, tales entwine
baby laughs and both look over
made with a belly full of screw top wine
they sing all the songs about
the things they thought about
the strings they cannot live without
the ring of penny bells
i don't believe in all of me i'm meeting
i don't believe in all the food we're eating
it's easy then, to hope for more tomorrow
it's easy then, but hope is time we borrow
i need to learn, in peace, in kind and keeping
i need to learn, yadda yadda yadda
buying in to names not who's behind them
buying in by faith in love and nothing less
here from there i lost december
penny drops her name and signs
baby laughs for crying out christmas
up to his belly in the screw top wine
they sang a little song about
the things they would have talked about
which brings us all back without
her wings when penny fell - Track Name: the tide
-
the tide
there's a dirty steel gray sky closing in
and i can't move for love and not for sin
if the ends are just the means may just begin
to take a fallow heart and grow again
no more lovers waiting by the phone
no more preacher dust upon the stone
all the things we wish away and hide
return amid the fullness of the tide
when the sky you fear comes crashing down
will the center hold before the fearful sound
did you take good care to keep the ground
or salt the earth and let it come unbound
no more lovers waiting by the phone
no more preacher dust upon the stone
all the things we wish away and hide
return amid the fullness of the tide
now, i don't have an answer in a song
we'll find our faith or not before too long
and on the wings of hope we'll carry on
deliverance or doom comes right or wrong
no more lovers waiting by the phone
no more preacher dust upon the stone
all the things we wish away and hide
return amid the fullness of the tide - Track Name: note to self
-
note to self
it's not in the words that you say to keep
all of your wishing well
it's all of the world when you try to sleep
caught up in whispers that tell
you've got pretty little fingers
you savour what lingers
on tear kissed pillows
at dawn
it's not in the night that you keep for days
tucked in and wishing well
it's all in the name that your choose to speak
lost in the moments that fell
through your pretty little fingers
you're left to what lingers
on tear kissed pillows
at dawn
it's not in the fears that you hope to bend
to will your wishing well
it's all of the years that you took to spend
counting up wishes to sell
on your pretty little fingers
'til the last of what lingers
on tear dust pillows
is gone - Track Name: another damn song
-
another damn song
another damn song about playing in a band
power up the amps, make your one night stand
test your courage and kind
open up your breast with each touch upon a string
give away a breath of life with every word you sing
that goes unheard
this is for the lovers of the singers and the songs
celebrate the hope that peace could make you strong
if you try
or should you try
looking for the faces in the flashing of the light
try to find the words in the echo of the night
before it fades too soon
walk another mile, take your posture and choose
between the belly for the dollars and the love of the blues
where it all began
this is for the lovers of the singers and the songs
celebrate the hope that peace could make you strong
if you try
or should you try
should you try to find the way
to take your love today
or try to find the way
to take you home - Track Name: sometime (song for matthew john)
-
sometime
well you know we all got to go sometime
and it's a crime when sometime comes too soon
so when you go, won't you blaze that path to glory
and when it's time we can follow you through
sometimes never more is what we question
sometimes ones we love are passing through
sometimes never more is all the reason
sometimes nothing more is left to do
when you look back down from where your going
sing a song and let your voice ring true
raise the wind for a duet with the thunder
and the rain will wash the tears we sing for you
sometimes never more is what we question
sometimes ones we love are passing through
sometimes never more is all the reason
sometimes nothing more is left to do
when the piper sounds the call for saints and sinners
and the hounds address the moon with doggie blues
then your song will echo on into the night time
and we'll all still sing along, along with you
sometimes never more is what we question
sometimes ones we love are passing through
sometimes never more is all the reason
sometimes nothing more is left to do - Track Name: revealed
-
revealed
if you could tell me the way
that i need to love you
if you could give me your hand
i swear i'd try
pick up something sad
you're really over
cool kiss, breath of the night
upon my mind
the way you look
the way you feel
the strangest sense
i am revealed
if i could just find the words
i need to tell you
damned if you do it
but damned times two if you don't
look up something sad
to keep you lonely
lost kiss thrown to the night
we never mind
the way you look
the way you feel
the strangest sense
i am revealed
caught looking back
i never knew
caught looking back
and i miss
the way you look
the way you feel
the strangest sense
i am revealed - Track Name: for all we know
-
for all we know
falling down stone cold dead in the market
looking for love on a line, in a pocket
coming up crosses, broken on the surface
one in the hand means two is on purpose
and all we know is
no one's home
for all we know
it's true
pushing up roses 'cause you never did like daisies
acting bloody fools, with nothing left but maybe
kissing for courage, catalogues and coffee
dry as down stage tears, cracks in time, you lost me
and all we know is
no one's home
for all we know
it's true
kicking in the windows on your last forbidden secret
praying in the rain, off the chance you'll need it
pursing pretty lips, bombardiers and brooms
tumble weather skies in lonely sitting rooms
and all we know is
no one's home
for all we know
it's true
