The Fog

Take me to the water
Show me how to breathe
I can't see through the fog
Do you believe in destiny?
Will you wait for me?
Lead me through the troubles
The fog always follows me
Swim against my struggles
Cast out in a foggy sea
I will come out free
Trapped inside the glass
On the outside looking out
Dreaming 'bout my past
All the faces trickle down
Without a sound
Take a hike and search your life
Isn't that what this is all about?
If you see that there is more
Then open up mind's door
Look within and you'll begin to see
That if you come on in we'll have a mighty fine time
From the looks of things I can see you've been walking for miles and miles
Rest your head, settle down we'll have a drink or three
Oh, just let that fog be

If I could have a monkey my life would be set
I'd dress him up Lebowski-style, he'd go wherever I went
I wouldn't know what to name him, but it'd have to be cool
Maybe "Miles," no I got it, I'd name him "Raul"
If I could have a monkey my life would be set
I'd dress him up Lebowski-style, he'd go wherever I went
I wouldn't raise no whimsy chimp, so you know just what I'd do
I'd train him everyday to be a master of kung-fu
Whaah!
Daniel-son!
Paint the fence!
We were hanging around one Sunday
We decided to down a bottle of Wild Turkey
We sent Raul to the liquor store
Clerk said, "Can I see some ID?"
Raul kicked his ass and took the big bottle of
Wild Turkey
It all happened after a show last January
That made it all worth naming Raul head of security
He caught some punks stealing our gear
They only laughed and said, " What's a monkey gonna do?"
Raul just grinned from ear to ear and threw down some kung-fu

Halfway There
08:47
|

|
When I was a little kid, I didn't know what my dad did
Asked my grandpa about my fears
Could he give advice, insight into this hectic life?
His words still ring in my ears
Some days float by oh so slowly
But most years fly by so god damned fast
So when you find that which makes you happy
Do your damnedest to make it last
I'll be fine as long as you're here with me I'll be happy
You ease my mind
When I'm falling down to the ground I'm knocked down
But your sweet words reassure me
Now I may be a clown, but I get the job done
So when I'm away, all you have to do is whisper my name
No matter where
I'm already halfway there
Halfway to you

Look at that tree dog, hanging by the branch
Look at that tree dog, shaking it right
Mary showed me the neo-hippie light
Oh, I must say it was nice and kind and bright
Like swimming in a river of memories
There are the things I can never ever see
Have I told you today how glad I am you cam with me?
Shown some hookah and them some mando jazz
Breaking bread with Brennan "Smokestack" knock you on your ass
Then the darkness falls on came the night
It was Darkstar to orchestrate the light
Have I told you today your my muse and my delight?
We danced and we sang until dawn
Welcome home old friend it's been quite a while
Have a seat and burn one down, get to know our smiling style
It may feel a little bit strange at first but give it time
At Bearcat Getaway, all is yours and min
The music tingles up and down my spine, we're all doing fine
Paraded on down through the fog and we built a fire by the river
Played some old tunes and had a good time I can't deny, I felt the rhythm
Like making music in my dreams with my friends, I'm right with them
I hope this night never ends, this must be heaven
Have I told you today your my muse and my delight?
We sand all night long
We danced and we sang until dawn
Soon it comes time sleepless head to face the sun
The sycamore trees they melt to sway as one
And then my sweat and tear are passed out one by one
Man am I glad I stuck around
Man am I glad everyone chose to stay in town
Man am I glad we got drunk and we got down

Hopeless Fool
06:18
|

|
At time like this I am reminded
Of the first time we kissed it was all decided
I'm not gonna hide it
You are the love of my life, I'm not gonna try to deny it
I've got to be as honest with myself as I've always
Been true to you
But am I just a hopeless fool for you?
Am I a hopeless fool?
Tuesday night in a bar drinking and thinking trying to
Escape the whole that I'm sinking down, down, down
I know it was hard for you to be straight with me
To look me in the eye, tell me you might not want to be with me
Now I'm spinning 'round
A bitter lesson learned, "take nothing for granted"
To keep from getting burned I'd have to keep my heart
Planted deep inside
But life can't be lived without taking chances
I give it all to her, I roll my dice, and then I smile
'Cause at times like this I am reminded
Of the first time we kissed it was all decided
I'm not gonna fight it
You are the love of my life, I'm not gonna try to deny it
I've got to be as honest with myself as I've always
Been true to you
But am I just a hopeless fool for you?

Fingertips

She comes out blazing, shooting from the hip
The rest of my days cling to your lips
She peeks her head inside, she make the whole room glisten
She opens up her mouth and I am curious to listen
I'm running in circles now to catch up with myself
She's stunning, not rehearsing, and I fetch for her help
It doesn't take much, a touch, a breath, a glance
Without her here to volunteer, with whom would I
Dance?
So tonight, you know who I am
Will you make a stand with me tonight
You've seen inside
Would you stand beside me tonight?
And 'til the end of time
With a heart so kind, I've seen it a thousand times
If you don't mind I'll be a step behind
For the rest of time, I'll be right by your side
A love so pure can't be denied
Her power lives in her fingertips
And my life hangs upon your lips
Her power lives in her fingertips
A traveler song runs through my head
Turning mine to "yours"
This power burns inside like never before
It doesn't take much, a touch, a breath, a glance
Without her here to volunteer with whom would I
Dance?

Skin Deep Lives
06:37
|

|
If you don't think much of thoughtfulness
and you'd rather live skin deep lives
Be content with perception as an absolute
You're just another worker bee manning the hives
Can you see beyond the music
To the message underneath
Can you see beyond the clever words
Three chords and groovy beat
Lie of language put to rest
Melody speaks the meaning, why don't you?
Put aside logic, be our guest as the
Essay is just beginning
Quick glimpse at static stars up above
Anxiously watching down on me
The road that I take, for them will it be enough
Now I'm asking wrong questions to be set free

Here with my thoughts all I comprehend
No one takes notice in this foreign land
Where will it lead by body aches to see
If nowhere soon, that's mighty fine by me
You can only take one step at a time
Don't force yourself just let go and unwind
If you take a wrong turn on this maze of path
Don't freak yourself you can always turn back
Taking a good look around what is it I see?
Confusion and clarity and all the lies between
Stumbling down the platform, could this all be make believe?
This time tomorrow dissolve the sorrow, do the deed
'Cause sorrow is just a disease, you could end up out to sea
Hands of time slap me across the face
Like bittersweet cold sweeping off the lake
Can't help but to look back to see where I began
If I could set my clocks back, I'd do it all again

Invincible

Today is the day, country breeze in my hair
Today is the day, that I hang onto your stare
Now I'm drowning in my tears
It wasn't my dreams that came true, it was my fears
So please, please don't give up on me
You're everything I need; in you I believe
I thought we were invincible
My love for you is immortal
It all came true, on that day you walked away
Your warm love and your bright sun have turned into a cloudy day
Now that dark and cloudy day has turned into my life
My heart's in disarray, something just ain't right
Now you're gone and I'm trying trying to be strong, but I think I'm losing the fight
There's a hole in my soul my cup will never be full without you here by my side
You're my everything you are the reason I sing now what more can I say
Feels like they're closing in to tear my heart out, without you I don't need it any way
You've got me down here looking up to you
I'll do anything you ask me to
I promise I will follow through
I've always put you on a pedestal
No matter what time will tell
You'll always be my angel

Awake
07:21
|
|||
|
Slither 'round the back, slither right up to ya
Slither 'round the back, slither right up to ya
Over landscapes of aquamarine
Like flying inverted in a fast fading dream
Caught between a dream and reality
Look in the mirror, it's not me
Demons inside you
Awake now, whatcha gonna do?
Awake, my eyes are not open but not closed
Awake, my eyes open
