I was Drop kicked knocked out from all sides

You just get me every time

Your criss crossed mix ups worldly style

And I want

A Dark Hair girl sets the world on fire that warms a rebel Child

War torn born with smirks not smiles

And I want

a skipped beat sing street mixed tape day

Hearts drawn in stereo in sea foam haze

Night time lost time sunburst fades

And we are

Stand tall free fall while hand in hand

Close knit tight fit future scanned

our Eyes in line where dreamers land oh

But how fate weighs down

And we get twisted inside out

One day we both walk out

No joy no happiness

Fall down break down your tears for days

Traded down to itch the fame

My indifference became the pay to play

Stand up drugged up you’re all ship shape now.

Brittle hearts feeding off of the ground.

Dependency our tendency as we both drown.

I know what you want

I watched you all the time

I shouldn’t have been so cold

But You could have helped me smile.

I know what you do. You do it all the time. You tell me I’m the one and then you sit and watch me die.

But how fate weighed down

And we get twisted inside out

One day we both walk out

New Joy new happiness

When we break

All the stars will find their way

Cuz how we loved. Too punched and drunk in our own world

A quiet place. A youth revolt exchange with

No words to you

All colors hues for me

Your slipstream daydreams killed

Quit cut end this scene

All so fake. Dress up Hang on and just fade away

A quick escape to a low down dirty place to stay

Familiar space. My youth renewed embraced with

No words to you

All colors hues for me

Ain’t no dead end streets in spring let’s

Wake up start to dream

My subtle fate

Recluse unused and you won’t stay

I’m worlds away

A world away.

We were shouting the signs of ten thousand miles we passed in our dream

We were holding the rest close to our vest. We were the sea.

Implacable time, your wandering eye was finding our gaze

Downtown on the grass the future had passed and we were the rain

Desperate for the sight of that city at night with no one around,

We climbed up on the roof to make believe youth and become a sound

So Let the city lights down. Shut off the murderous covenant sound

Carry the message that everyone's blessed with someone to tell

Down from the Rooftops and up from the alley ways

Under the silent sky

From one to another the first sound of summer

A city's dream of the night

So Let the city lights down. Shut off the murderous covenant sound.

Carry the message that everyone's blessed with someone to tell.

These old sidewalks have heard all of our words

re-written as verse

They sang the poem we had made with our desperate days

the first in the world

We were walking at last a snow-covered path through mountains of glass

Guided along by the sidewalks' song to a home we just learned to miss

We were passing the signs, walked ten thousand miles out of our dream

We were holding the rest close to our vest. We were the sea

So Let the city lights down. Shut off the murderous covenant sound

Carry the message that everyone's blessed with someone to tell

Down from the Rooftops and up from the alley ways

Under the silent sky

From one to another the first sound of summer

A city's dream of the night

Embattled and Battered From Battles that mattered

When we were too young to know we were too young

Here we have come again downtown together and

Lights out, we'll find out if we look like us again

So Let the city lights down. Shut off the murderous covenant sound

Carry the message that everyone's blessed with someone to tell

When we were young just walking through the tall grass

hiding wet eyes from the sun

You stirred up a hornet's nest you grabbed me by my wrist

and let them sting us for fun

Just terrified terrified

Walking hand in hand down the alley divide

It was summertime we were waiting for our lives to come along our way

It was our all time best day to sing and we whispered anyway

Sitting on the wall behind the music hall

telling all the same stories our brothers told

We could fantasize and catastrophize

Fall in love with everyone and tell the best damn lies

Terrified terrified

walking hand in hand down the alley divide

It was summertime

we were waiting for our lives

to come along our way

It was our all time best day to sing

but we whispered anyway

It was summertime

we were waiting for our lives

to come along our way

It was our all time best day to sing

but we whispered anyway

And we whispered anyway

Every little reverie is now

These streets sing a song of ourselves in American sounds

And all this time I've been hard to find 

Something my father's hands couldn't hide

All these phantom effigies gather round

Memories of seasons that i've spent in lonelier towns

When all them kids on kellen street knew my name

They're callin again

They're calling me down

Lost on a side street and found

All the lights were stuck at go 

Finding out is finding gold 

So let it all out, let them all know 

that we're all coming down

Cause Kellen's gone quiet but our hearts are just getting loud 

We used to dream useless vanities youth is proud

Time spent timeless life in the likeness of sound

Bleeding repeating it calls me out

Breathing life back in a lifeless town

Now the angels that didn't know our names

Know that heaven just won't, won't be the same

They're calling me down

Lost on a side street and found

All the lights were stuck at go 

Finding out is finding gold 

So let it all out, let them all know 

that we're all coming down

Cause Kellen's gone quiet but our hearts are just getting loud Description text goes here

Hey Rose slow down, I know you won't.

The space between us on the water seems just out of reach.

Hey Rose why can't t you turn around why can't you turn around and face me.

Just a moment my friend well just a moment again

Light of lovers riding home lives of lies feel light as stone

Oh where have been my friend. Oh where have you been.

I've been looking round the ends of ends and

for seven long summers I've been coming back here to where it ends so

where have you been?

Hold tight

Hold strong

you're not stuck here anymore

And in this dark dark night

don't hide your face from the light

Keep it on, Keep it on,Keep it on

Brother just hang on

When you wake up in your sleep

Does she walk on her two feet

Place your head upon her knees

you know you're not so far from home.

So hang on, hang on, Brother Hang On

hang on, hang on, Brother Hang On

your heroes have not gone

the road you walk the sun you breathe you'll carry on

And your fathers hands have paved the way for you

Be on your way to find the love in truth

Wait to Carry on

Wait to Carry on

Wait to Carry on

Wait and Carry on

My father used to tell me about the people he picked up in his cab.

Feeling lost along the way, First time they knew they’d come in last.

Most Sunday mornings he’d pull up early on our street.

Staring with a tired smile and open the door to the backseat.

And we’d go for a ride.

Claire was the best thing the south ever made.

The parking lot kids never saw her like I did cause they forgot how to dream.

Saw her once underneath the clear blue Georgia sky.

The kind that would make a ministers wife jump up

Throw up the window and let the devil inside.

And we went for a ride.

Now me and Claire oh we don’t share a name anymore

I can’t remember what she said when she left and

What all the fighting was for.

And our son Daniel sure is growing up brave and kind.

I pull up on one of these Sunday mornings to see he lost what I learned how to find.

We’ll go for ride

When I’m an old man alone and looking back on what’s been.

Find a way to think about lost time

Find a way to feel alright about my sins.

And when I do a train will show up there on my porch

Tell me there’s a seat waiting for me on that one way coach.

And I’ll go for a ride.

We’ll take a walk on day I’ll leave you in the hands of

Petty tyrant giants and pint size cannibals.

They’ll make fun of you and I won’t understand

I’ll just shake my head kids can be so cruel

You in the window and me on the street

Were made to sweet for the distance between

I can’t turn around I can’t turn around

I can’t not turn around.

You can turn towards it

We’ve been look for it

You can’t ill afford to miss your break out day.

You’ll discover your scene and run your world with a wink

Such havoc at rest your young soul let’s slip.

And I’ll watch you ride by sunglasses and smiles

A blur of a girl too clever to hurt

You in the window and me on the street

Were made to sweet for the distance between

I can’t turn around I can’t turn around

I can’t not turn around.

You can turn towards it

We’ve been look for it

You can’t ill afford to miss your break out day.

These days.

Some day you’ll be on your own.

You’ll know what I don’t

You’ll be and become

What ever you want with whatever you get

From what ever you got from our break out days

You’ll be and become whatever you want with what ever you get

From what ever you got from these days.

From these days

Just last weekend, Meghan walked in on some hooker and her man. So she called me, said 'Won't you help me? How soon can you be in New Orleans?"

In fact, Louisiana was on my way to getting paid.

When she met me at that station she wore a new dress, she held an old. gun. She said, she said: "Honey, it's gonna be alright. Just another New Orleans homicide. Yeah honey, its gonna be alright. Just another New Orleans homicide.

Honey, these city streets they breed the kinda scum they'll blame this on, you'll see. We'll be so far away by dawn; no one will miss us when we're gone."

She drove me to an old house, out past her last chance for doubt. She waited in the car while I put a bullet right in his cheating heart.

"Honey, its gonna be alright. Just another New Orleans homicide. Oh yeah! We're gonna be alright. Just another New Orleans homicide."

Just another New Orleans homicide. But it was our New Orleans homicide.

When we were young- walking through the tall grass, hiding wet eyes from the sun, you stirred up a hornets' nest and held me by my wrist. You let them sting us just for fun,

Your sweet whiskey hell- it held the pain in my arm while your kisses held my scars.

It was summertime we were waiting for our lives to come along our way. It was our all-time best day to sing but we whispered anyway. :

Your long blond hair in the backseat of my car reminds me of your favorite song and that you're gone, that you're still gone.

It was summertime. We were waiting for our lives to come along our way. It was our all-time best day to sing, but we whispered anyway. But we whispered anyway. But we whispered it anyway.

 Don't say I didn't warn you, "My heart would know".

I've been looking for the moon in daylight, looking for a better way to say I want to be alone than "Leave me alone".

Here we go: runnin our words in circles, tryin to be as hurtful as two hurt people can. I only told you that I loved you because I didn't want you to have to be the only liar around.

Right now, it feels like I might miss you but if that's the truth, then I just miss being let down. My love, you're nothing but a hard luck story waiting to happen to someone else.

I'm laughin at the someday when you won't have a pretty face and you won't mean a fucking thing to anybody.

My love, you're nothing but a hard luck story waiting to happen to someone else. Now my love, you're nothing but a hard luck story waiting to happen to somebody else.

I'm Stuck on a bus in Memphis nowhere bound

With millions of people and not a soul around

This place aint no place for an unlucky boy

With less faith than heartache in his old man voice

Those days down on main street those nights in the county jail

Memories of seasons that I spent in lonelier towns

When all those girls on main street knew my name

They're calling again

They say that losing your heart it hurts like hell

But all those kids down on main street carry it well

They say that losing your faith it hurts like hell

But all those kids down on main street carry it well

These streets sing a song of ourselves in american sounds

But all I'm hearin is the hymns of quieter towns

And all this time I'm been hard up to find

Somethin my fathers hands couldnt hide

All those girls down on main street have moved away

I bet only my meredith will remember my name

But not every fool remembers to die

Somebody's waitin for me on mainstreet tonight

Just last night you heard me say 'we're gonna breathe, fall asleep and watch them all die away." I aint sad to see that the sun came up upon the field where we laid down our needs. And it's everything that when it found us we were still sleeping. I watched the dying night fall lightly on your face like the echoes of angels in the slow din of our days.

When we cry, this is my life" we describe just these brief moments of time. When we cry, “I desire" we are consecrated by some design, something divine. When it's all over we'll find we have strived all this time to be where we are tonight.

The sun beats boldly on the earth as the ground sings songs of praise in the key of rebirth's sound. I see in your eyes the night sky lingering. And it's everything that when they opened we were still breathing

When we cry, "this is my life" we describe just these brief moments of time. When we cry, "I desire" we are consecrated by some design, something divine, When it's all over we'll find we have strived all this time to be where we are tonight

Just last night you heard me say “we're gonna breathe, stay awake and watch them all die away." I aint sad to see... But when the sun came up upon the field where we laid down our needs... and it's everything that when it found us we were still sleeping. I watched the dying night fall lightly on your face like the echoes of angels in the slow din of our days.
