Well that time in the corner babe
Spent thinking bout your life
And I’ll be here waiting
Shoulder to cry, voice to share
So be mine
So be mine
You’ll say oh ya love me
Just as I am, or get lost
Ohh and I know that you feel it
Im not ready to grieve
So be mine
So be mine
Yeah I’m always lookin’ back and forth my head always seems to be turning around
And I’m scared of what I might see
And if you’re looking a for a better view the light should be shinin’ on the melody
You’re driving, me home!
You’ll say that ya need
Right now don’t let go
You always said that ya wanted more
You’re broken down by the liquor store
Yeah I’m still here waiting
Like I said time again’ and I know that you’re not sure
So just tell me now
So Be Mine
So be mine
Yeah I’m always lookin’ back and forth my head always seems to be turning around
And I’m scared of what I might see
And if you’re looking a for a better view the light should be shinin’ on the melody
You’re driving, me home!

Lyrics
The elevator feels slow today
Nothing ever seems to change
The battle cry, of don't ask why
So we keep runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
On standby
Don't fear, don't cry
Don't let 'em steal your soul before you die
'cause otherwise
It's just
Time
Time
Time killing
Yeah it's just
Time
Time
Time Killing
All this time we're wastin'
Killin' time and
wishin' at the end
we had some more of....
'cause we're always one last
step behind
ooooh
Don't fear
Don't cry
Don't let 'em steal your soul before you die
'cause otherwise...
It's just
time
time
time killing
yeah it's just
time
time
time killing
They wind us up
and let us go
a cruel joke
that they already know
i'm half way through,
now how bout you
there's nothing to fear
but how fast it all flew
and it's just
time
time
time killing
yeah it's just
time
time
time killing
it's just
time
time
time
killing me

Lyrics
Hey little boy,
when did they start lying to you?
was it overheard at dinner
or spoken behind the school?
does it skip a generation?
i'm just trying to understand
could you imagine what would happen
when a boy becomes a man
'Cause the bloodline runs deep,
and the middle won't meet
When the past comes back to show just where it stands
And the water may rise,
but it will never compromise
Enough to mend the fault line
and wash away the bloodline
from your hands
Hey little girl,
when did you start seein' it all?
Was it at a Sunday morning service,
or in the blue eyes of your dream house doll
was it ever complicated?
did you ever second guess?
could you imagine who you'd be
without the cover of your flesh
'Cause the bloodline runs deep,
and the middle won't meet
When the past comes back to show just where it stands
And the water may rise,
but it will never compromise
Enough to mend the fault line
and wash away the bloodline from your hands
We all start the same
Tied to our parents fate
I know, I know
Someday
(Hey little boy, when did they start lying to you?)
The lines, will finally break
(Hey little girl, when did you start seeing it all?)
Break away
Will you change the conversation?
im just trying to understand
how to reach the destination
on a journey with no end
'Cause the bloodline runs deep,
and the middle won't meet
When the past comes back to show just where it stands
And the water may rise,
but it will never compromise
Enough to mend the fault line
and wash away the bloodline from your hands

Lyrics
Yeah baby I know, gonna be alright
got a special thing, oh its so electric
im gonna shock and awe just like a bombshell
though years take a toll, still haven't heard the bell
Well, I know Now
what i want to do my love
to see you smile
love ain't gone, dream still strong
love, love, love
Well i cant deny
yeah sometimes its rough
and i dont mean to pry babe, but i know your tough
so you say to me somedays
want to run to the hills
just choking on these hard to swallow pills
Yeah, I know Now
what i want to do my love
to see you smile
love ain't gone, dream still strong
love, love, love
Well I'm running with you
About this life
Though it's hard to change
from dark to light
I know now
I know now
I know now
I know now
I know now
what I want to do my love
see you smile
love ain't gone,
dream still strong
love love love

Lyrics
Ease the front door closed,
careful not to make a sound
Could be you or me,
hardly seems to matter now
So I wave the white flag,
set out on this early morning ride,
And by sundown we’ll both know,
it’s good to feel alive
And if I go easy go, easy go,
Clock the miles one by one,
until I repay all I owe
And I may never ever get there
but I will never know
Unless I go easy go
easy go
Were we too young?
Or thought this was part-time work
And as the fields fly by
I can see you in that denim shirt
Standing in the front yard laughing,
crying at the sweet release
Of the life we knew, was nothing,
but trying to keep the peace
So we go easy go, easy go,
Yeah we go easy, go easy go
And we may never ever get there
but we will never know
Unless we go easy go
easy go
Ain't time funny,
it never seems to be on time,
Yet we'll keep runnin' runnin'
blind to that finish line
Cause this pain the calling me home now,
wherever that may be,
Need to find what makes me run...
before it leaves
So we go easy go, easy go,
Yeah we go easy go, easy go
and we may never ever get there
and we will never know
Unless we go easy go easy go
unless we go easy go easy go

Lyrics
Give the clerk a ten,
Take the change,
See the sleight of hand
at close range
Without wondering why
Waitin’ for the train,
make your peace,
Your steppin’ out in front
to break the lease
Without sayin’ goodbye
And it never meant nothin,
it never meant nothin'
at all
Yeah it never meant nothin',
it never meant nothin'
at all
Buzizin’ with the fluorescent brain
pourin’ out the 91 octane
And step into the light
Hit up your old high school
Open old wounds
from the broken rule
Gonna set things right
And it never meant nothin,
it never meant nothin'
at all
No it never meant nothin',
it never meant nothin'
at all
Shovel the dirt,
cover it up
Fill in the cracks,
pushing your luck
It's not like anyone could
ever know
Throw down a bet,
settle the score,
look the other way,
the secret's safe
if easy come is really easy
to let go.
You say you love her
knowing it ain't true,
She’s living out a lie
next to you
Can't come out and say
I wait,
I wait all day
Swirling lights racing my mind
take me away
And those stars,
those stars fly by
A million miles,
Between my heart
and naked eye
I’ll be right home
I’ll be right home
I’ll be right home....
Never meant nothing

Lyrics
Day stealer,
was the summer of ‘84
Green woody with a busted door,
And Springsteen’s Cover Me
on the Alpine Stereo
Day Stealer,
gettin' dizzy on the country air,
Sundress at the summer fair,
And she was the first one,
Makin’ out by the carousel glow...
And they go,
Like waves under the water
One after the other,
Just like that
And before you even know it,
The years in the rear-view
wind up down the road
Where they go...
...Oh day stealer
We were running on gasoline
Top down in a fast machine
Backyard racing,
Head out to the lake
and let the bonfires burn
Day stealer,
Didn’t know what was comin’ next,
No goodbyes and no regrets,
But there ain’t no stoppin’
The hands of time
And they go,
Like waves under the water
One after the other,
Just like that
And before you even know it,
The years in the rear-view
wind up down the road
Where they go...
Take a ride,
take a ride
Let the past,
let the past
keep pulling me...
And they go,
Like waves under the water
One after the other,
Just like that they go,
Like the autumn trees,
And the falling leaves
And just like that they go
Gone without a trace,
Tears down your face
And just like that they go
And before you even know it,
The years in the rear-view
wind up down the road
Where’d they go...

Lyrics
We go back to the beginning
Nothing but innocence
Never knew what was coming next
But that’s gone now, yeah that’s gone now
Cause we go back do you remember
6 string misery and gin
I was kid a watching a hero
But that’s gone now
All that’s left empty space
Broken years, spent waiting and waiting
No wisdom words to hold onto
Tell me how could you give up just like that
When we go
When we go
When we go back
All that time wasted believing
You weren’t really leaving
Hands on my head here grieving
Did you mean it?
Cause you’re gone now
Yeah, you’re gone now
All that’s left empty space
Broken years, spent waiting and waiting
No wisdom words to hold onto
Tell me how could you, how could you,
give up just like that
When we go
When we go
When we go back
And this is how it will always be...
Broken years, spent waiting and waiting
No wisdom words to hold onto
Tell me how could you, how could you,
give up just like that
When we go
When we go
When we go back

Corner Sun
Billie on the AM radio,
It felt just like the end of a show
Blinking back those tears
Shrinking in the rear view window
Daddy liked his feelings cut and dry
Mama did her best to stem the tide
Of a little boys first loss
Standin' there across the roadside
wooahoo well it comes and then it goes
Like a river ebbs and flows, each day
wooahooo then you end up in that place,
Where the lines upon your face, are here to stay
And you question everything you've ever done
And all the memories you'll never outrun,
Yeah but man I'd give it all away
Just to spend another day
Under that corner sun
Daddy liked to say works all you need
Mama said it made his stomach bleed,
But he never stood a chance,
Buried in the best laid plans, he didn't need
I put in my last shift on that line
When they shut it down before its time
Another promise come and gone,
And now there ain't too much to count onnnnnn....
wooahoo well it comes and then it goes
Like a river ebbs and flows, each day
wooahooo then you end up in that place,
Where those lines upon your face, are here to stay
And you question everything you've ever done
Alll the memories you'll never outrun,
But man I'd give it all away
Just to spend another day
Under that corner sun
Well I opened up that box
Under the bed
Saw that crayon color picture
Staring back at me
And I couldn't help but think
How time gets twisted, complicated
Side tracked, turn and lose your way
Looks at me as if to say...
wooahoo well it comes and then it goes
Like a river ebbs and flows, each day
wooahooo then you end up in that place,
Where those lines upon your face, are here to stay
And you question everything you've ever done
Alll those memories you'll never outrun,
But man I'd give it all away
Just to spend another day
Under that corner sun

Lyrics
I see two worlds
And they’re so clear
Hard to know where to put it all
And I’m pushing back on my old self
As heavy hearing drowns out my cries
My cry for help
Ever single nerve
in my body sings to me
Like a hey hey hey
Don’t wanna hear any more
Got me tied up in knots
And every single day I wake up
Thinking it might be the last last time
I see this place…
See my face
Now I’m runnin’ through a mindfield
Got the enemy close behind me,
Caught up in a war, I just can’t concede
the fight is never ending,
the end can be so tempting
When you’re trapped under the weight
Trapped under the weight
of battle fatigue
Feeeeeel
Feeling locked away in a head case
No faith
No faaaaaaith
Can’t be making sense of all these easy answers
they be selling me me me me meeeeeee
I’m tryin’ to face
I need a safe place to land
And I ain't gotta know, I ain't gotta know
Now I’m runnin’ through a mindfield!
Got the enemy close behind me,
Caught up in a war
I just can’t concede
the fight is never ending,
the end can be so tempting
When trapped under the weight
Trapped under the weight
of battle fatigue
I wake up in a cold sweat
I can’t move, there’s nothing left
But the front lines keep calling
and what can I say?
It’s the same goddamn thing...
Every, every, every, every-day!
Now I’m runnin’ through a mindfield!
Got the enemy close behind me,
And I’m caught up in a war,
I just can’t concede
And the fight is never ending,
the end can be so tempting
When trapped under the weight
Trapped under the weight
of battle fatigue

Lyrics
The middle of November
in the basement of a church
when I was at my worst
Can't recall much of that night
except seein' the rest of my life,
In the face of a man who's dyin'
He spoke a simple truth
The kind that comes with long goodbyes
A broken stare, through amber eyes
He said the python first appeared
In a mason whiskey jar
it took him by the throat
they went flyin'
It can find you in the daytime
or when the sun goes down
And you might not even notice
It will lie and you will listen
tells you all you need to know
And forget about who you were....
I put in my overtime
after run-in out the clock
Somewhere
between a hard place and a rock
Pigeon eyed sermon
Sour air and curtain stalls
Well it gave me all the comfort
I was needing
But by then I'd lost it all
The kids, the second wife and mercy
In a coffin bed motel
Dead bottles and day time tv
My hour was getting late,
drinkin to live and drinkin' to drink
Gave in to the grip of the
undefeated
It can find you in the daytime
or when the sun goes down
And you might not even notice
It will lie and you will listen
tells you all you need to know
And forget about who you were....
I learned about the python,
I learned about the python
It don't care about your riches,
your colour or your name,
It only wants the good stuff,
buried deep within
It can find you in the daytime
or when the sun goes down
And you might not even notice it
until you're wrapped around
It will lie and you will listen
it will lie and you will listen
And forget about who you were,
as the python just hangs on,
and won't let go
