I Just Got Your Cable

I just got your cable
You have got my eyes
Walking through the country
Watching all the spies
Who to trust when you must
‘Cause there’s nobody to hold you up
I just got your cable
And all I have is time

I am on the porch, burning up the lines
Send it in due course, and I’ll wait for, and I’ll wait for, and I’ll wait for mine

Send another cable
I need another line
Where are you this morning
Who is on your mind
Are they fair, 10 or 9
Do they make you feel like one of a kind
Send another calbe
I’m running out of moonshine

Pull The Release

Pull the release, everything opens, everything falls, out of the sky
Tight in the seam, filled over time, ready to go, part of the style
Crack in the wall, see it dissolve, dust in my hand, dust in your eye
Faithfully try, to make it up on the fly, if you crash, it’ll burn in the fall

And so you build it up, Try to make it tough
Replace a won’t with a would, a never should with a could

Drawing tonight, hope that we win, but money’s the source, of so many fights
Dangerously close, to holding the day, at gunpoint in place, of finding a way

Aim Here (Roots and Wings)

If the world stops for someone – it never really stops for long
And I learned in such a short time – if it’s ringing let it ring alone

My hands are caught in a short line – pulling me over the side
But the sea into which I am falling – is the only wet I want in life

Give it roots and wings and time – said simpler than done
Give it roots and wings and time – and let the sun set alone

The speed that we devise for our lives – never comes out at night
I wish I could have seen her sooner – Specially cause she has your eyes

If the world would stop for someone – I know it would stop for her
I never asked for anything special – just so lucky to have her at all

Lie 2 Me

This snow don’t, get me down now
I’ve got you in my sights now
I’ll share it, with my brother
Come closer, no need to bow down

My buddy is house bound
We both need to get out now
With walls so high I’m sure
My bite won’t be a signature

Lie to me
Everybody needs a place to rest
Lie to me
Come on baby lie to me instead
Lie to me
Tell me that you want me in your bed
Lie to me
Come on baby lie to me instead

We ride this together
Come in from the weather
Able to get you to work able to help you out
I know this, I know now

Sun to Shade

The sun it makes the shade
The love it makes the pain
And you, you’re making me
Yes you, you’re making me

Sitting outside under the shade tree
Watching the sun come thru and warm me
Closing my eyes I finally see things
Only things that come are things that go

The white has made the black
The right is on the left
And you you’re making me
The truth I want to be

Sitting outside under the shade tree
Watching the sun come thru and warm me
Closing my eyes I finally see things
Only things that come are things that go

The stars they make the sky
The wet it makes the dry
And you you’re making me
My things are only things

Sitting outside under the shade tree
Watching the sun come thru and warm me

Cutaway

Takes a little time to get it right, so take that time, and get it right
Those that have no risk will all be fine, when there’s no risk, of more decline

Do you want to piece it all together, cause I do
But when I think I will I never do, too much uphill

It takes a light on, no rear view sight on and cutaway

Imagine all you do is read, a book or two, that’s all
Picture that it’s me you’re shopping for, for two, to play thru
Why is it so hard to make, to find, to be
Well maybe cause my scale, is weighted down, with more I care

Sparkle in the eye of the beholder, I make impressions, they’re getting older
Just had a moment that makes it right, with minutes on a side, that’s alright
You made a choice, 20/20 noise, still sounds good
Take a clue from me it’s all worth it, it’s a trade-off, can’t be certain

So What?

Take the golden shoes
Spraypaint and glue
That was the approach to get something new

It was only members only
Walk too slowly
The burgundy color said you can’t control me

Well that was then
And this now
Her core is still burning inside

Today the jacket’s black unzipped
Red gloves are shorts ripped
Tomorrow’s just the same doesn’t give a dam, never did that way

Echo (Party Pack Shortage)

My feelings come in the night-time I wake up dirty in your crime
You dragged me into this circus I feel it’s getting more dangerous

I can’t imagine what’s your head
I think you’re missing a link, I hear the echo the echo’s there

A local job as a governor It looks brighter than ever
Maybe back to the radio Seems like that’s where they go
My faith has colored the glasses I see different faces
But your face I can’t miss Of good you are the antithesis

I can’t imagine what’s your head
I think you’re missing a link, I hear the echo the echo’s there
I can’t imagine what’s your head
I think you’re missing a link, I hear the echo the echo’s there

We haven’t spoken since summer And I don’t have a desire
You don’t have thoughts of your own mind While we sit in the real world in realtime
The time is here for affirming And end ridiculous badgering

I can’t imagine what’s your head
I think you’re missing a link, I hear the echo the echo’s there
I can’t imagine what’s your head
I think you’re missing a link, I hear the echo the echo’s there

People want to see you out now

Have in my hand they cry now
Slinging it from your dollhouse
Courage isn’t in your playbook
And my courage makes you unhooked
Punchin your clock you’re done now
People want to see you out now

Inside Outside

You’re on the radio
Telling me that we should know
Everybody grew up on this Why you wanna take away this
You’re on the radio

So sad you disagree
So mad you’re changing things
Now the fight you will create Can’t avoid it go upstate
So sad you disagree

Now you fight inside
Just like us outside
Ideology
Keep your hands off please
I’m asking

I’m asking now I got your name
You hit your crown You lost your aim
I’m asking now I got your name
You hit your crown You lost your aim

Now you fight inside
Just like us outside
Ideology
Keep your hands off please
I’m now asking anymore
’m not asking anymore
I’m not asking I’m taking

The Way It Is

It’s only one at a time
That’s the way it is
It’s not for me to decide
So I take it at that
Made a business of crime
That’s the way it is
Hit ‘em one at a time
Never said it was right
There's always someone who hurts
That’s the way it is
Sometimes it’s one of my own
Brings a chill to the bone
When they take down my house
That’s the way it is
Pitched a tent and I stood alone, Well

See I’ve been holding out
And I’m not gonna give up on me

Time is only a dream
That’s the way it is
It’s like it’s black and white
That’s what they said inside

I crucified him today
That’s the way it is
But I was wrong to have tried, Well

See I’ve been holding out
And I’m not gonna give up on me
See I’ve been holding out
And I’m not gonna give up on me
