Hot afternoon, sometime in june
Sittin' on the front porch waitin' on the moon
Talkin' to my neighbor next door ain't never ever very much fun
Go get my car, and my guitar, ride through town with the top down
Maybe I could buy me some beer, run out and look at the farms
And they call it the South, it's the land of the free
It lost the only war it ever fought in history
But I love the South, it's the land of the free
It's the land of hush your mouth, 'n Joe South
And that's home to me
She was born in '52, she finished in a Mississippi school
And something about her that turns you on
She's different, like another world
And you can tell she's not a New York girl
And something about her kiss that takes you home
But she was born in the South, Memphis, Tennessee
She was rich in looks from a poor Memphis family
But she will stay in the South, it's the land of the free
It's the land of hush your mouth, 'n Joe South
And that's home to me
California, I love you, your hills are high and your oceans blue
In LA there's always something to do, and you're never alone
But I like Fall,and I like Spring, I love snow and I love rain
And there's something about LA I can't call home
I guess I'll stay in the South, it's the land of the free
It lost the only war it ever fought in history
But I love the South, it's the land of the free
It's the land of hush your mouth, 'n Joe South

How many times have I heard,
"In the South they just don't work."
Lazy angels spill time
and use lives
as I would mine.
Pouring out of windows,
like strange flags,
come clean clothes.
Spit-free sediment
sweep dives
from broom-kept porch
in no time.
no time.
Now the sun strips that same sidewalk,
with the day-dried test
of small talk.
She walks quick, fresh,
with clean, black crease,
and navigates this mess
with protected ease.
Does she leave?
Does she leave.
Does she come home?
Where does she sleep?
But somehow the gate's not right.
A face stripped of something
since last night.
Can you carry that smile
to the store
or a job?
And what's such a rush
that would let you be robbed?
Do you leave?
Do you leave.

This was the one and only
So pure, so pure
You named the stars and told me
They're all yours, they're all yours
And all at once I saw the sign
The very extreme of lies
And my pain
Smothering
My pain
Cover it
I can't feel your pain but
I can taste the rain I've laid
I lost my sense of wonder
There's no cure, there's no cure
I'm losing my head
Smothering
My pain
Cover it
I can't feel no pain
But I can taste the way
It touched my heart bleed
And all at once I saw the sign
The very extreme of lies
It taught me how to cry
Without my strength
I'll handle this
Over and over and i'll
Handle this
Over and over and i
Found way to blame you
Found how to blame you
I can recognize
I've lost so much
I gave so much
I've loved so much
And that's why
You took so much
And you gave so much

Mother, mother take good care
Cause there are jagged shards of glass out there
The ones who wear the shoes don't seem to give a damn
It's hard to find a place to stand
Mother, mother take good care
I'm sure you know by now how many things get broken out there
And when you're sending off your bare foot little girl
Won't you say a prayer for her?
But you can hold onto your cross
Get down on your knees
Pray to your Jesus
But he packed his suitcase long ago
Threw up his hand and thus he spoke,
"It's just no use
All of my love can't cure these blues
I'm going south
Where the sun shines, south"
Mother, mother take good care
Cause all they're handing out are tickets to nowhere
So teach your daughter how to be all she can be
And how to cry when it don't come easy
But you can hold onto your cross
Get down on your knees
Pray to your Jesus
But he packed his suitcase long ago
Threw up his hand and thus he spoke,
"It's just no use
All of my love can't cure these blues
I'm going south
Where the sun shines, south"
And who'll carry the blame
Who's going to take up the campaign
The politicians in command are washing their hands
They've got to tend the marching band
So you can hold onto your cross
Get down on your knees
Pray to your Jesus
But he packed his suitcase long ago
Threw up his hand and thus he spoke,
"It's just no use
All of my love can't cure these blues
I'm going south
Where the sun shines, south"
Mother, mother take good care
Cause there are jagged shards of glass out there
The ones who wear the shoes don't seem to give a damn
It's hard to find a place to stand
It's hard to find a place to stand

You went up and down inside my head
The cut of your hair
The way you smoke your cigarette
I didn't want to get too far I didn't know that's who you are
Now I just sit alone going through your mail
you don't pick up
You don't know what you got until it all goes south
You think you got alot until it all runs out
There's something about you that i can't get out my head
And I won't wake up
From telling myself that you're coming around again
And I won't wake up
And I won't wake up
I still do all the things that we did before
I get through the day but just feel so bored
I didn't want to get too far I didn't know that's who you are
Now I just sit alone going through your mail
you don't pick up
Oh, you don't know what you got until it all goes south
Oh, you think you got alot until it all runs out
There's something about you that i can't get out my head
and i won't wake up
from telling myself that you're coming around again
and I won't wake up

Don't start now that you've recovered
Words slip out when you don't want to
Comment on the situation
Round up then some
Do what leads to your destruction
Commit yourself before your actions
Dictate all future affairs
Can't stand the sight of this disrepair
Don't think that I'll be here most any day
You give me no reason I find it a strain
(Don't pull me over)
In my own way, I dream we're safe
Can't stop natural disasters
To walk on or fall down
It's ours but not in the same way
Our rights failed me
Follow or lead by example
I hope we're safe
Do what leads to your destruction
Commit yourself before your actions
Dictate all future affairs
Can't stand the sight of this disrepair
Don't think that I'll be here most any day
You give me no reason I find it a strain
(Don't pull me over)
In my own way, I dream we're safe
I'll start by picking everything apart
Oh this is such a curs
To me you live a total fantasy

Timeless favor, there might be strings tied
Speeches, restless interrogation
There lies on streets, lie there with me
Catching fever, I don't think of life as obsolete
Jealous, fertile, cut from the safety of this life
These faces, I've walked in place
At which point I'll ignore
A motiveless crime
A motiveless crime
A motiveless crime
I've witnessed
Timeless favor, there might be strings attached
Catching fever, I don't think of life as out of reach
A motiveless crime
A motiveless crime
A motiveless crime

Senseless seeings
Realized beings
Watch me, around here
A square there but be near
What you are is measured in ways
I can't explain
Not always at times that you may
Need explaining
Cuts through the air like
A bad light but not to spite
Hold up an old friend
And use him to mend these trends
Listen now, it's coming in loud
I can explain
It's just that I see what is plain
And you are safe
Mend these trends
Mend these trends
Mend these trends

Feed me something we'll go back to the start
Take pride of place understand our reasons
A photograph taken at the time
When confidence won't up and leave
So loosen your hold though you might be frightened
Release or be caught if this be the right thing
Unable by thought to look what the tide brings in
Look what the tide brings in
Feed me something we'll go back to the start
Take pride of place understand our reasons
A photograph taken at the time
When confidence won't up and leave
So loosen your hold though you might be frightened
Release or be caught if this be the right thing
Unable by thought to look what the tide brings in
Look what the tide brings in
So loosen your hold though you might be frightened
Release or be caught if this be the right thing

An angel lost its wings
Amongst the bags of things
Disclosed amounts of greed
Creep in daily
And though naive at first
You must be quick to learn
It's not the words that hurt
So save them
Memories meant for me
Take all the time in the world
All the time you deserve
You'll be lost but you'll be free
Now that luck is found
Our feet won't touch the ground
Might not be first in line
Still we stand by
Cut like broken glass
Leaves splinters in our path
Been guided by your thoughts
So hold that
Memories meant for me
Take all the time in the world
All the time you deserve
You'll be lost but you'll be free
Take all the time in the world
All the time you deserve
You'll be lost but you'll be free
I won't guess forever
Given chance is slender
Forgive this fragile day
And fail to capture thoughts
The restless side has gone away
Breath out
Never forget this fragile day

Each and every day
Colours in waves
Love and nights cause sparks
Tearing us apart
Street lights fading, cuts my heart
Knowing that the time is past
Comes in waves that don't belong
To me they're silent
Fall back on what you've done
I'll be the only one
These colours before my eyes
I'll be forever colorblind
Each and every day
Colours in waves
Love and nights cause sparks
Tearing us apart
Street lights fading, cuts my heart
Knowing that the time is past
Comes in waves that don't belong
To me they're silent
Fall back on what you've done
I'll be the only one
These colours before my eyes
I'll be forever colorblind

When did you get in
I didn't hear a thing
You hold me with your stare
Lost and unprepared
Maybe time of year
To make our way back here
Stitch another seam
Come to terms with love
Up close and personal
Every tear we shed puts us so on edge
Are you on my side?
Someone I can confide
Don't be so damn crazy baby
It's not the first time lost it lately
If the fire goes out might feel like running
my head blows up you might wanna leave
Oh the diamonds of your eyes have got me to thinking
You're crazy baby
Sing my way through life
Fear it hides my smile
If eyes are windows too,
the soul I see in you
Ever the pragmatist I see your life in bits
Every tear we shed puts us so on edge
Are you on my side?
Someone I can confide
Don't be so damn crazy baby
It's not the first time lost it lately
If the fire goes out might feel like running
My head blows up you might wanna leave
Oh the diamonds of your eyes have got me to thinking
You're crazy baby
If the fire goes out might feel like running
If my head blows up you might wanna leave
Oh the diamonds of your eyes have got me to thinking

What I find, I know is mine
It describes, feels at times
Heave a sigh, open wide
A disguise to fuel the fight
Things you say can make my day
But you've paid to be this way
A real fake but not betrayed

In construction, I'll honor your soul
Laid down, something more beautiful
I'm tempted to rewrite it all
This time I know I'm going
In straight lines to bad lands
I'm leaving nothing to chance
Courageous mind, my left hand
Reaches for you I'm holding
On for dear life, cut from old cloth
Tarred by the same brush
As I sit here in the window of third
For the first time I feel I wont fall
In straight lines to bad lands
I'm leaving nothing to chance
Courageous mind, my left hand
Reaches for you I'm holding
I believe in
I believe in when
I believe in

Make a wish on a silver sun
A day like this can't be wasted
Make a wish don't tell anyone
Cool this temper with laughter
Daylight comes crashing in
Time is of short supply
The wind streams through broken rooms
Underneath darkness lies
From this fear there may come light
Stretch me out over this divide
Make a wish on a silver sun
When it comes, it comes
Make a wish on a silver sun
A day like this can't be wasted
Make a wish don't tell anyone
Cool this temper with laughter
Daylight comes crashing in
Time is of short supply
The wind streams through broken rooms
Underneath darkness lies
From this fear there may come light
Stretch me out over this divide
Make a wish on a silver sun

Same old story in time for a warning
I'm gonna turn around, you'll be gone
A nice little goodbye, songbird unheard
Your precious light will shine
Don't make me wait, now that I have come of age
Stranger today, your precious light will come my way
I was not in for much, may be lost but I've been touched
Watch over me, let me be
Now's the time to lose yourself
Now's the time to lose yourself
Same old story in time for a warning
I'm gonna turn around, you'll be gone
A nice little goodbye, songbird unheard
Your precious light will shine
Don't make me wait, now that I have come of age
Stranger today, your precious light will come my way
I was not in for much, may be lost but I've been touched
Watch over me, let me be
Now's the time to lose yourself

Keep close but keep quiet
As if an angel graced us all up in our hands
Redefine close to tears
It looked painful like I secretly feared
What I mean to say is you talked me round
Don't look back on the luck you found
I mean well I steal
I see violence in the corner of your eye
Make sense of what you feel
There's a danger in every story and every smile
What I mean to say is you talked me round
Don't look back on the luck you found
What I mean to say is you tore me down
But don't look back on the luck you found

How can you say your life is empty
So late in the day
Why would you stay another second
Now your sight got in the way
A combination
Of love and aggression
Another second lived
Don't paint the silence black now save me
Don't leave it a day
You got a right to stand or die so maybe
You take chances all the same
Pain comes in stages
If we dont make it
Nothing changes
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandon feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandon feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side irates me
Dont leave me to pick up on your questions
Not even a day
It's alright to finish up your sentence
You talk all the same
Pain comes in stages if we don't make it
Nothing changes
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandon feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandon feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side irates me
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandon feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandon feeling for just a piece of mind

See all the people want in my eyes
They all seem to wanna share my light, my light
My light
I'm gonna be there when your soul comes down
I see you running on your own intentions
Have you seen the sight of me
'Cos I won't be there when you run out of changes
Changes
Look into your life what's on tonight
Dressed up in fame yeah, you're gonna see the sights
The sights
I'm gonna be there when you're soul comes down
I see you running on your own intentions
But have you seen the sight of me
'Cos I won't be there when you run out of changes
Have you seen the state of me
'Cos I won't be there when you run out of changes
Run out of changes
Have you seen the state of me
'Cos I won't be there when you run out of changes
Have you run out of changes
Run out of changes
Changes
Run out of changes
Changes
Changes
Changes

By the drug that's in your eye
By the line that's on your mind
These things are ours it's only time
It all depends which side you find
He might come unstuck
He might write us off
But write us off a thousand times
I write a song about a time
For such an open mind
There's a fear so strong inside
By the time you catch your heart
Your good intentions fall apart
He might come unstuck
He might write us off
But write us off a thousand times
I write a song about a time
Each night remains the early part
In terms of love that falls apart
And by the time you catch your heart
By the love right from the start
Each night remains the early part
In terms of love that falls apart
And by the time you catch your heart
By the love right from the start

Her last movement every moment she glides
When the life you love yeah, falls for the final time
The more you give and take
The more these things take shape
Let the light of morning break see it shine
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now
I've seen this fever build when conversation runs dry
When all the trouble that you owe, makes you one of a kind
The more you build then break
The more time it'll take yeah
Put the lives you love at stake it's your only crime
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now
Do you find you've recovered now

Are you biting your tongue
Or riding on your tights?
It's hard to discern
If it's just a state of mind
All these second chances get another problem off your chest
Know not where you go or where you've been
Give into love it's the one thing we have
Hold out your laugh, see the beauty within
I know the way that you won't make a fuss
Don't mean there's no pain
So they say,
There must be more to life than this
No mistaking happiness
There is more to life this
Through the days and nights we drift
Are you biding your time? or sinking in the shallows?
It's hard to describe, I might never know
Always heard you've got shit for brains
Move your body in a thousand ways
I know it's in your nature to explore
Give into love it's the one thing we have
Hold out your laugh, see the beauty within
I know the way that you won't make a fuss
Don't mean there's no pain
So they say,
There must be more to life than this
That's what you say
No mistaking happiness
There is more to life this
Through the days and nights we drift
In the distant fantasy
There will be no place for us
I heard you say
There must be more to life than this
That's what you say
No mistaking happiness

I've lost my thread
Could be forgiven
I lost my hold
Change will come
I've lost my thread
Could be forever
I lost my hold
Change will come
I've lost my thread
Could be forgiven
I lost my hold

Pieces of a dream return to me, help me sleep
By the time you catch the fate it lights it's gone
Bring me one step closer to dark, maybe not
The situation systematically falls apart
I'll make such a son
To the sun
And play my part
Before it's done
Buy myself some sense, blow it all on greed
It's only time before you govern me, I insist
Take a step? why? it's not right
listen for but I wasn't living for, for myself
I'll make such a son
To the sun
And play my cards
Before it's done
All was white in a subtle light
When she took the knife and her own life
All was white in a subtle light

Take your side, explain your rights
Breathe life in silent types
You might not
Breathe life in silent types
You might not
Get the chance
To take it second time around
Your future in this town
Has suffered even now
You breathe it all in for nothing I bet
Searching wide spaces for something my friend
Take your side, explain your rights
Breathe life in silent types
You might not
Breathe life in silent types
You might not
Get the chance
To take it second time around
Your future in this town
Has suffered even now
You breathe it all in for nothing I bet
Searching wide spaces for something my friend
You breathe it all in for nothing I bet
Searching wide spaces for something my friend

Look at me acting in the drama of your life
I stumble over something
then I fuck my lines
So what will I say?
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
You seem to light up everything around you
Don't know just what it is, I'm thinking about you
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
If what I said does not amount to much
don't doubt your guts
Suppose the least that this is worth these lines are unrehearsed
So what will I say?
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
You seem to light up everything around you
Don't know just what it is, I'm thinking about you
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
Days seem to last forever but the weeks fly by
Feel conversations travel in the space that we find
Days seem to last forever but the weeks fly by
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
Aah, the better things I have to say
Will fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you
Fall to you

We fall out
We fall in
Creature comfort me
Stay for a bit
You grow up
The sun is in
And you know what you decide
Could change everything
It always has
(If you feel a little farther away
Don't beat yourself up)
No one is there
To answer your pain
We all have our hurts
Could all use a friend
But not before we set things straight
You owe yourself the chance to change today
You call up
I give in
My hands are tied
I'm not helping things
Through all this
There must come days
when you get closer to
understanding why
I can't see you
(if you feel a little farther away
Don't beat yourself up)
No one is there
To answer your pain
We all have our hurts
Could all use a friend
But not before we set things straight
You owe yourself the chance to change today
I know you care
But I won't be there
I wish you safe return
Don't beat yourself up

I don't have a problem in staking a claim
While all the time they go changing signs
Give us the right means to run on it's own steam
Finding the time you change the signs
Gotta run on time
Change this old mind
What a life yeah you'll find
I don't remember being a face on your wall
For all your sins
You do it with style and a grin
I don't have a problem in staking a claim
While all the time they go changing signs
Give us the right means to run on it's own steam
Finding the time now change the signs
Gotta run on time
Change this old mind
What a life yeah you'll find
I don't remember being a face on your wall
For all your sins
You do it with style and a grin
You light up the old red face i've seen
You light up the old red face i've seen
And I don't have a problem

I'll keep a light on
All the rest have
The rest have blown
I'll keep your bed warm
And the stillness keeps me
Where'd we go?
Just like you never went away
How strange to meet you hear again
Getting younger by the day
In chains conditioned to relate
I will do my best to keep you safe
But the best that I could do is turn away
Heavy expectations what a mess
As we wrestle with ourselves in a decay
Just like you never went away
How strange
To meet you hear again
Getting younger by the day
In chains conditioned to relate
I'll keep a light on,
I'll keep a light on and when you wake I'll give myself away.
I'll keep a light on,

You ask about forgiveness
Of not to find the watchin'
A chance to set you back straight
A chance to find some feelin'
You say, you will come home soon
We'll see you most the weekdays
Miss you at the best of times
You help me walk that fine line
Sometimes
You pay a lone reflection
This walking figure
Might have nine lives
Sometimes
You're pale with desire
Don't know whether
You've used all your lives
We'll talk about forgiveness
I'm here to find the meaning
I miss you at the best of times
You help me walk that fine line
Sometimes
You pay a lone reflection
This walking figure
Might have nine lives
Sometimes
You're pale with desire
And I don't know whether
You've used all your lives
You might have nine lives
You've used all your lives

Wanna hold a vision of tomorrow
Understand the truth from the lie
Wanted love and craving some attention
Where was I when you lost your sight
You wear your heart on your sleeve
The weather...
One day through the next we'll see
You might not remember me
Memories dissolve with years
Age can take the best I fear
One day through the next we'll see
You might not remember me
Memories dissolve with years
Seems that isolation brings us near
Gotta find my place in displacement
I'll defy the truth for a lie
Capture all the vistas of your own life
Face to face alone at the time
So wear your hearts on your sleeve
The weather...
One day through the next we'll see
You might not remember me
Memories dissolve with years
Age can take the best I fear
One day through the next we'll see
You might not remember me
Memories dissolve with years
Seems that isolation brings us near
One day through the next we'll see
You might not remember me
Memories dissolve with years
Age can take the best I fear
One day through the next we'll see
You might not remember me
Memories dissolve with years

delayed like a caesarean baby. i'm owned till i split
from this shell. reigned over like mignons and pupils. i
barely breathe for myself. so where are your engines.
where are your servants. they've dethroned you with cold
stares. and last and least it's your only invention. but
your creation has gone stale. show me you defuse. and
i'll break you down with light. you can't sell your own
worth back to me. but you tell me your confused. and i
prove it is a lie. you can't sell your own worth back to
me. hurray it's your own bastille day. freedom rings in
my ears like the band. weight transfers quickly from my
hands. and the shoulders i lean upon. show me your
confused. and i'll prove it is a lie. you can't sell your
prideless self this time. show me your defused. and i'll
prove it is a lie. you can't sell your own worth back to

Amongst the ghosts there is a secret to life
Over buildings they brought to you their souls of the dead
Could volcanos lie so still
I could never replace you
No matter how many times I kill you
You find these ways to live through the end
All of them pushed to the side
In the sands
I was cut from that seed
Thats why I am blind
And I'm not saving for that day and I don't care who reigns
In my grave I'm showered by these things you cover
In my grave the shadows pin two houses wide
Its overwhelming how they want it all back
The devils always red
Do you see
From a city inside the earth as outside volcanos cry my brother I must kill
Now I see
To win the game
On a sure foot
All of them
In the sands
And I was cut from that seed
Thats why I am blind
And I'm not saving for that day
And I don't care when it rains
