Isn't It 03:20
You think you need me when I’m gone You think I love that small tattoo I don’t care, I don’t care what you do You think that I can’t catch my breath I think that I can’t catch a break They say they say It’ll all make sense in time And I’m walking it off And I’m trying it out They say it’ll all make sense I’ve got my doubts This isn’t it, This isn’t it This is not where I am at This isn’t it, This isn’t it This is not where I am at Well you keep callin' out my name, But I can’t answer you this time You’ll be alright, you’ll be alright Here tonight And I wonder just how long Before you say we’ll get there soon And I’m running, and I’m running just to get to where You think I am This isn’t it, This isn’t it This is not where I am at This isn’t it, This isn’t it This is not where I am at And I wonder just how long, Until you say we’ll get there soon

Texture 03:18
And I smoke like a block cutting saw And I drink like an old sycamore tree And if you could just wave a wand We could all pretend it is a dream La da da da Yeah It’s a heavy hand to hold Theres a lot to unpack there You’re an empty vessel if you don’t Hold anything at all (At all) There were times when everything had a texture Like a dream And I scream like siren in your rearview And I think how I hope Aristotle would And If you would just pick a trailhead We could all continue with the scene La da da da yeah And we come so close After that its Twin Peaks Just a curf of the blade away, But it’s still the wrong stone There was times when everything had a texture Like a dream There was light Casting spectrums On silver carpets Hands were smaller Things were brighter

Poor Boy 02:11
Poor boy, poor boy where’d you get them blues Poor boy, poor boy where’d you get them blues You know it’s hard walkin in them shoes Yeah How many more miles You got left in them old ragged boots? Poor boy, poor boy swing that hammer hard Poor boy, poor boy swing that hammer hard You know that sun Sure is hot them summer days Yeah there’s work left to be done And I hope your back don’t break Last dime, last dime in my hand again Last dime, last dime in my hand again You know it’s hard Livin’ life without a cent Sometimes it makes you wonder How you gonna pay the rent? Poor boy, poor boy lonely nights are long Poor boy, poor boy lonely nights are long You know you got the kind of love that Makes the whole house groan Poor boy, poor boy lonely nights are long Poor boy, poor boy lonely nights are long You know you got the kind of love that Makes the whole house groan

Morning Read 03:05
I took your eyes with the stroke of my brush And your ears With the strings, I don’t touch And your fear Just the pride of a lion Staring right at your soul Fortune gets forfeited when your content to be here now The place that you desire is just a manifest of fire And I think that’s no place for you No place for (You)

Anhedonia 03:54
And the system Is not connected And the screen just Just reads ERROR And the code is Code is broken Spelled out in 1’s and 0’s Comin off Turning on This is not My shit And I’m feeling So down And It’s really All my fault There’s so long to be quiet And there’s just now To be LOUD Comin off Turning on This is not My shit And it makes no difference And it makes no sense And it makes no difference And it makes no sense And it makes no difference And it makes no sense And it makes no difference And it makes no sense And it makes no difference And it makes no, makes no, makes no, makes no sense Ah Yeah And it makes no difference And it makes no sense And it makes no difference And it makes no sense

Late 04:57
And I’m a-goin' Way down south As fast as I can go To those loblolly pines Black cypress water Sandy soil And it’s been so long Since I’ve been where I’m bound Yeah I’m going for something I lost I didn’t want to go on without And I was too late to say hello So I’ve come To say goodbye Yeah I met your boy Yeah and he is gonna be alright It’s a hard feeling to hold on to And it’s a heavy weight on my heart And wherever you have gone to You're going with my love I waited too long to come back And time you can’t get back Once it’s gone Thank you for those sweet Georgia summers Yeah this place won’t be the same Now that you're not around And I was too late to say hello So I’ve come To say goodbye Yeah I met your boy Yeah and he is gonna be alright It’s a hard feeling to hold on to And it’s a heavy weight on my heart And wherever you have gone to You're going with my love I’ll help carry you to Somewhere Where you can get some rest And I’ll be sure to bring back with me Some pink peonies next time that I come back And I was too late to say hello So I’ve come To say goodbye Yeah I met your boy Yeah and he is gonna be alright It’s a hard feeling to hold on to And it’s a heavy weight on my heart And wherever you have gone to You're going with my love As carried on the wind The North blew in the rain And the sky cried The whole way up 75 To know You wouldn’t be back this way again

Even 04:43
I'm going Alone this time Like a fist Another red stop sign Too slow on the draw We’ll go up and down town before long Too slow You can time my steps My secret (and even) Is going back and forth in my head (and even) And in this place I keep it I keep it, Safe And even though I don’t think it does (and even) I don’t think it does much good (even) Talkin bout’ it now Talkin bout’ it We’ll dress in light layers Cause we don’t know where goin’ But at least we can’t get lost If we don’t know where we’re goin’ We’ll dress in light layers Just like rips in the river There go the days of our lives Every sunset you missed Every person you fucked Every time that you tried Everyone that you trust Every bridge that you burned That you now swim across Every postcard you got and eventually tossed Every book that you read And the pictures you took Even the ones of me with that new Sharpie look Every time that we tried and felt it was no good I just did it for you cause you said that we Should And even though I don’t think it does (and even) I don’t think it does much good (even) Talkin bout’ it now Talkin bout’ it

ell way back now in old West Virginia Stood an orchard proud and tall And way back in 1910 My Grandad only paid $10 for it all Oh for these Good few acres Of some old Chinese chestnuts They were made strong More precious to me Than any red cedar Well yes indeed Grandad was a beekeeper Had himself about 75 hives I can still hear the honey-sweet sound of their wings Caught high in the leaves I can still see them if I close my eyes And Grandad used to sell them all the way down to Richmond Yeah there's no going back there now They’ve all died from the sickness, Or been cut down I’m the only one I’m the only one that keeps them now I’m the only one

From all these positions Your still caught offsides With no disposition You suddenly sigh Fairness and justice Are all set-aside The beating hearts empty Just from your sights And I’ll be there Simply to catch your sweet soul And I’ll be there Simply to catch your sweet soul So come hold hands with Elvis Let’s sing about grace (grace) We got plenty of stringed ones Some you can bang There’s no judgment in this room At least not from my eyes We’ve seen big ones, and tall ones, and strong ones, Heard all of the lies And I’ll be there Simply to catch your sweet soul And I’ll be there Simply to catch your sweet soul We’ll tap around all of them In past the walls Over the mountain Under the falls I can’t promise much more (more) Than we will be safe Until stricken by others Myself I can blame And I’ll be there Simply to catch your sweet soul And I’ll be there Simply to catch your sweet soul

Cream 03:16
I’ve been walking down This road for so long Can’t seem to find My way off Heaven help me I’m your long-lost son In the garden With the snakes and apples I’m a-comin' down your street Traveled many long miles Howlin songs up at the moon With the cold street lights on black leather Enter my heart With thunder and fire I'm a creepin’ up your steps Under shadows, steeples, and boughs 7 knocks on your door In the midnight hour St.Stephen don’t You look my way You’re not the one To cast no stones Body’s weary, but love knows no rest Light a fire Let’s turn cream to butter honey Enter my heart With thunder and fire

It’s the hour of the wolves Cries at midnight Goodbye sun It’s a choir Of the sirens Outside Churchbell tolls And won’t you help me out, my brother If you can Oh won’t you help me out, my brother If you can It’s the witching hour In the dark And time doesn’t flow Like it did When we were young We were young We were young We were young And the ghosts Creep in the windows I hear them singin' Their lonesome song And the cast iron Casts its shadows Oh, just like it’s always done And won’t you help me out, my brother If you can Oh won’t you help me out, my brother If you can And The Horned God Is in the street light I’ve seen him all In a curtain of mist Between the land Of the living and the damned I’ll meet him Once again (Howling Sounds)
