Temper 04:12
Peace of mind Is go is going Float away to the great unknown Will I ever remember Will the pieces stop Flying away from me There's a poet at the bar And he's pouring a new poem A bartender in the garden Concocting a new poem Into glasses you could see through Ice cube rattle chink and peek through Does it matter what he writes Does it matter what is beautiful Every day Getting away I lessen I'm so small That soon You won't see me at all I can't recall The things I've forgotten You say I'm strong But I feel it get away from me

Sweet Uses 06:04
Is this The life and death of me Or is this The width and breadth of you Should I stop Should I go Sweet are the uses Of adversity Are the days The roses grow Is this The chance I cannot chance Or is this The dance I cannot dance Should I pass Should I prance Sweet are the uses Of adversity Are the days The roses grow Giving you strength And hope A look down the road I've played And I've learned to dance I'll show you As much as I can I'll show you Sweet are the uses Of adversity Are the days The roses grow Giving you strength And hope A look down the road

There’s a devil in the tree Outside He gets the better of me ‘Cause he lies A little voice inside Chastise He never lets me be free Not even sometimes He lies, he lies Need to turn a deaf ear Close eyes Head of second guessing Doubting Leave the devil in the tree Behind Nothing up there but leaves All of the time He lies, he lies Need to run to stand still These days Need to shout to be heard “Do you hear me?” Leave the devil in the tree Behind Nothing up there but leaves All of the time He lies, he lies...

Stars at night They light the sky And they brighten the night So I can sigh Over your countenance so young And fly with me In your dreams You slumber Fast and deep The moon's a bulb It's the sunshine of the nighttime Parting blinds So bright Makes the birds sing The sun don't compare Tonight, it's lost the battle On nights like this You twist You turn Awaken to your dreams Soon the wind will blow The dew Will lace itself into your shoes Your scarf will flap A wave to school Your cold hands were in mine Mine were warm around yours The moon's a bulb It's the sunshine of the nighttime Parting blinds So bright Makes the birds sing The sun don't compare Tonight, it's lost the battle On nights like this You twist You turn Awaken to your dreams Stars at night...

The Reward 03:17
Sometimes I'm so tired Beyond the point of sleep Used up to my elbows By dishes, dirty laundry There's a place I'm going to It's a hole beside the sea It's filled with nothing It's just a place Where I can get some sleep And I feel the sun Go down behind my back When nighttime comes Sometimes I get my life back But sleep eludes you Just when it Comes to visit me I'm dreaming dreams of you As you play around me Didn't I explain The story of the weed It's just a plant in the wrong place At times we all are weeds You say you want to be popular A bright and shining star When things are that way You never know Who your true friends are And I feel the sun Go down behind my back When nighttime comes Sometimes I get my life back But sleep eludes you Just when it Comes to visit me I'm dreaming dreams of you As you play around me You're feeling the line Everywhere you go go Feeling the line Everywhere you say so Feeling the line Everywhere you go go Feeling the line Everywhere you say so

Cards on the table Suited up and ready Smokin’ and jiving Just dying to be aliving We know one another Deep down through toes knowing Shoe shined Toes glowing Back down and through I know What you’re thinking This song is a metaphor For what? Nothing’s hidden I am willing I’ve had a fall The same as you The stakes were high So high they were few I’m sitting here Too full of apathy To take a stand The same as you I know What you’re thinking This song is a metaphor For what? Nothing’s hidden I am willing Why you fall away? We’ll share a bone at this rained upon Stained upon Table And come to a certain understanding I know What you’re thinking This song is a metaphor For what? Nothing’s hidden I am willing Why you fall away?

Meter 05:03
What I would like would be To see the sun and the rain Going at the same time I would like to see the moon meet the day Bring morning to the night To be the love of your life The light in your eye Instead of drawing a fight Draw you to me Be the love of your life The light in your eye Instead of drawing a fight Draw you to me What I would like What I What I would like What I would like What I would like is a space Bright and clean yet dark So I can switch on a light And you can walk by And see that I am home And I would like to have one of those nights That we used to have When you walk by And see that I am home That's what I would like What I would like What I would like What I would like What I What I would like What I What I would like What I would like is a space Bright and clean yet dark So you can walk by When I switch on that light You can see that I'm home You can walk by What I What I would like What I What I would like To melt in your arms And you'll understand When I walk away That you'll come again To melt in your arms And you'll understand When I walk away That you'll come again To melt in your arms

As long as you have Money in your pocket You'll never be lonely As long as you have A gun in your holster The world is your oyster As long as you have A car in your driveway You'll always be free As long as you have And I'm the company girl I travel the world on your ticket For me It's got to be free And when I get there I piss off your shores And step on your fingers and toes Ask anybody who knows I am that girl I am the company girl The company girl I once Was a girl I was invisible But I grew Up to be The hero Of my company And I'm the company girl I travel the world on your ticket For me It's got to be free And when I get there I piss off your shores And step on your fingers and toes Ask anybody who knows I am that girl I am the company girl The company girl I am Invincible Was once Invisible But I Came to be The savior of my company

Lure 06:29
Friday night was at a movie Then went out to catch a band By night's end I heard you calling Need to see you 'fore I set off to bed I know you're waiting there for me Exactly in the place I left you I cannot wait until I get back to you You're a passion and a mystery Car wheels spinning all around you Spinning 'round above the ground to you Makes no difference where you are I will find you in my car Is this a vice or is this a virtue? Is this good for me or bad? Am I missing out on Something? Is this good for me or bad?
