Melt- Lock- Count- down

In the last phase of the dog days
Be my lover, be my Sunday
When the lockdown finally hits town
Show me your face, I’ll show you my face
Are we the chosen, or the broken?
We’ll take our chances, leave it open
When we breathe in, keep believing
There’ll be another day to wonder
At sundown in the blackout
I’ll be your stowaway, blow the lights out
feel the hollow in the darkness
Be my lover, in the silence
Won’t be long till we’re separated out
To be tagged and encoded, counted down
In the fallout from the meltdown
Be my bunker, gimme shelter
I’ll make the bread runs in the doldrums
Be your shoulder while it smolders
Feel the thunder, hear the sirens
keep yer head down, close the curtains
When the sulfur meets the summer rain
I’ll pull you closer, under cover
Won’t be long till we’re separated out
To be tagged and encoded, disallowed
We belong to the here and this and now
There's no heaven but the space between us now

The Score

See the lines on the routes I’m running
Feel the sun a-setting
See the lights on the loads I’m running
See the nights on the roads I’m spending
Hear the boy I’m leaving
See the towns sleep while I’m spinning
I’ll drive forever to your door
I’ll drive forever, maybe more
See the warm lit homes in the distance
Feel the cold shoulder
See the nights under hazy crescents
I’ll drive forever to your door
I’ll drive forever, maybe more
I’ve been down this road before
I could travel another day or more
It’s not like I don’t know the score
I know the score
See your overflowing spaces
See your table setting
See your children’s radiant faces
I’ll drive forever to your door
I’ll drive forever, maybe more
I’ve been down this road before
I could travel another day or more
It’s not like I don’t know the score
When you walk into the store
Just take a look behind the door
It’s high time that you know the score
Time to know the score

Goodbye Monkey Parade
03:48
|
|||
Caught in a malaise
I turn my eyes to the top of the shelf
and the pages I’d turn to for rest
or sailing away
I think it’s been years
since I read more than a top ten list
or hysterical headlines in red
It's fractured and frayed
my head's spinning all the way
I’m a monkey in the center of a parade
So I say goodbye
I say goodbye
Goodbye
Truth to be told
I’ve been lost since the fall of the sun
on those records we’d hold in our hands
and play to the dawn
I’m lost in a haze
I’ve succumbed to the stream you might say
don’t know how much more I can take
CHORUS
So I say goodbye
I say goodbye
Goodbye...

In the Roots

Seize the time
- you will never see another day like today again
Ease your mind
– listen to the voices around you
Feast your eyes
- burn into your memory the places that created you
Reignite the courage to belong to each other
Pain, it's in the roots
You feel it when you love someone
Love, it's what you lose
You lose it when you sweep away the
Pain, that’s in the roots
You feel it when you love someone
Love, it's what you lose…
When you face the world alone
Heed the signs
- don't believe the evidence till you can see with confidence
Deep inside
- close your eyes and feel the truth of it
Pain, it's in the roots
You feel it when you love someone
Love, it's what you lose
You lose it when you sweep away the
Pain, that’s in the roots
You feel it when you love someone
Love, it's what you lose…
