Modern Blues
03:46
|

wheels turnin'
coals burnin'
i’m a vagrant on the run
scenes rollin'
heart stolen
i don’t need anyone
everything you said was true
i don’t see through
everything you touch is new
but it don’t suit you
modern blues
time frozen
eyes closin'
you’re a shadow off the ground
stay golden
unchosen
like an angel spun around
everything you said was true
i don’t see through
everything you touch is new
but it don’t suit you
modern blues

Groovy Stranger
02:21
|

groovy stranger
what's it gonna be?
if you keep coming after me
hey soothsayer
tell me what you see
when combing through my destiny
can you do no wrong to me?
with your rainbow face
feet aflame
will you not wait long for me?
'fore the coffee's cold
you'll ride the breeze
groovy stranger
who am I to be?
imbued with mediocrity
two-faced player
what's in it for me?
besides a cardiectomy
can you do no wrong to me?
with your rainbow face
feet aflame
can you do no wrong to me?
can you do no wrong to me?
have you got no place for me?
on your golden stage
'bove land and sea
you're hiding the sunshine from me
(you know i wanna see it)
you're hiding the sunshine from me
(i don't know where you keep it)
you're hiding the sunshine from me
(you know i need to see it)
you're hiding the sunshine from me
you keep me in the dark

Tricky Mother Nature
03:25
|

tricky mother nature calls
do you answer?
you tell her no
i won’t decide
just who i am
don’t wanna know
the dealer’s hand
caught between a destiny
and an alter
you falter not
but come undone
just like a rose
your petals fold
you phantasm
look at you
you ingenue
in navy blue
cowboy boots
look at you
you prostitute
of twisted truth
vicissitude
look at this
this masochistic
hollow tryst
in nude lipstick
look at me
i’m finally free
of everything
i’m supposed to be
tricky mother nature calls
you the father
but you’re so motherly
in everything
you see and do
your honesty
will strangle you
tricky mother nature
you marauder
you clobber me
with obstacles
i never know
just what to do
but still
i love you

Sights

you’ve got a world inside your head
i want to live in it
you’ve got a wicked smile
i’ve seen the light refract through it
oh, you look at me
like some forgotten
dream you had last night
why fight
the sights behind your eyes
you’ve got a scary mind
i feel it burn like dynamite
you've got maze up for a face
i wonder what's inside
oh, I look at you
grasping for a clue
so I can sneak
a peek
at what you hide from me

Honeyrose

you wear colour glasses
when you walk around the world
and it helps you see
you listen to static
on your broken dream machine
and it helps you sleep
i’m not asking for the world
but, i'm hoping that you'll someday
notice me
i still hold my breath and wish
when I drive across a bridge
religiously
i smoke honeyroses when
i’m waxing lyrical
in a reverie
i turn on the light inside
a giant mineral
and it helps me breathe
i’m not asking for the world
but, i’m hoping that you sometimes
think of me
i still listen to you talking
to me all the time
in my memory
i wear colour glasses
when i step into your world
and it helps me see

Everybody's Watching You
02:39
|
|||
do you ever wonder why
the river’s dry
every time you try to
go out for a swim
do you always have to cry
when you lie awake at night
and the moonlight shines
up against your skin
OOooOOoo
everybody’s watching you
OOooOOoo
everything little thing you do
i don’t care what you say
i’m gonna stay this way
it doesn’t matter what you say
do you ever wonder why
the sun ain’t bright
when you go outside
to greet the day
do you always act shy
when you realize
that the one you like
feels the same way
OOooOOoo
everybody’s watching you
OOooOOoo
everything little thing you do
i don’t care what you say
i’m gonna stay this way
it doesn’t matter what you say

Wait
03:04
|
|||
wait
are you making a mistake?
is it possible that
fate’s misleading you
wait
is there something more to say?
have you got a card to play
that changes things
i can’t imagine
what would’ve happened
if i’d a been myself
instead of someone else
i can’t imagine
what i’d a told you
if i was there right now
i don’t care anyhow
stay
i just want for you to stay
i just want for you to
lay down next to me
sway
as you walk away you say
that it’s not goodbye, but
only destiny
i can’t imagine
what would’ve happened
if i'd a been myself
instead of someone else
i can’t imagine
what i’d a told you
if i was there right now
i don’t care anyhow

Sustaining
02:34
|
|||
everyday there’s
something new
free diversion
built for you
clean your ears
and tie your shoes
for you to see
a lot of things
that you don’t need
infinitely
another johnny appleseed
an industry
of misery
what’s the worth in hating
all these people you’re sustaining?
everything’s degrading
yet you keep
participating
watch the high-
light reel turn lewd
redefine your
attitude
in the nude
what’s
the use
in keeping
company discrete
when money’s
stuck between
your teeth
and tongue
is loosening
when sin is
opportunity
what’s the worth in hating
all these people you’re sustaining?
everything’s degrading
yet you keep
participating

Magic
00:47
|
|||
it feels like
magic, magic
when you walk with me
it feels like
magic, magic
when you talk to me
it feels like
nothing at all
that i can recall
ever has happened to me
it feels like
magic, magic
when you look at me
|

i wanna be your everything
the crescent moon
a phone that rings
an apple pie
the sky at night
your lonesome words
and mutterings
but how can I be everything
at once for you my darling?
when i’ve got trouble simply being me
i wanna be your destiny
a diamond ring
a bird that sings
the lightbulbs on your vanity
an eloquent analogy
but how can be anything
at all for you my darling?
when i’ve got trouble simply being me
if I could be most anything
you know that i’d be yours
simply nothing more
by you I’d be adored
or else i’d be
the widest sea
you’d sail from shore to shore
be my love the door
to fantasy
galore
i wanna be your everything
the echoes in your memory
an everyday amenity
a comedy and tragedy
i wanna be your everything
yeah, every rise and fall
because without you
i am nothing
at all
