TUMBLEDOWN HEARTS
Snap off the light immediately
Leaving the outside suspended
We've got the itch and the remedy - italicized
Now you and I got here independently
So many breaks to be mended
Considering the possibility - romanticized
Tumbledown hearts
Call the tune
Falling sideways around the room
Here in the dark not a moment too soon
Tumbledown Hearts
Another toast for what's up ahead
Love on the rocks left behind us
Killing the pain with every shot - hypnotized
Consequences led us here
We make the best of disaster
No critiques - nothin' to fear - we empathize
Tumbledown hearts
Call the tune
Falling sideways around the room
Here in the dark not a moment too soon
Tumbledown hearts
So we fell down - came unzipped
Love was draggin' us around, by the lips
Tumbledown hearts
Call the tune
Falling sideways around the room
Here in the dark not a moment too soon
Tumbledown hearts
Tumbledown hearts
Call the tune
Falling sideways around the room
Here in the dark not a moment too soon
Tumbledown hearts
Oh - Oh - Oh - Oh -Oh- Oh - Ohhhh
Oh - Oh - Oh - Oh - Oh -Oh

A Place of No Place

A PLACE OF NO PLACE
Tell us we're unpatriotic
We question despicable deeds
We disagree with your rhetoric
So you tell us we can leave
You're keeping children in cages
Doubling down on your hateful speech
While we're all chasing the rabbit
You commit your crimes with ease
We'll march through hateful racism
Storm through your gates of Hell
Cause we came from a place of no place
We should have ever been
And here we go again
There's no justifying your motives
Your ignorance, or your fears
Can't hide behind your scripture
You'll find no excuses there
For judgment is without mercy
To those who have shown none
So I pray you learn to love kindness
And humbly walk with your God
We'll march through hateful racism
Storm through your gates of Hell
Cause we came from a place of no place
We should have ever been
And here we go again
Don't care where it is we came from
Our freedom you disavow
The rights we spilled our blood for
In the clutches of your death shroud
We'll march through hateful racism
Storm through your gates of Hell
Cause we came from a place of no place
We should have ever been
And we ain't goin' back again
Oh no no no
Ain't goin' back again
Oh no - Oh no
We ain't never
Ain't gonna let cha'
Can't put us back again
Oh no no no no
No - we ain't never
Never gonna let cha'
We ain't never
Ever goin' back again
We ain't never
Never goin' back again
Ain't goin' back again

Within Crying Distance

WITHIN CRYING DISTANCE
Are you thinkin' about Memphis
How you left here with nothin’ to lose
Cause your were thinkin' about goin' home
Whatever home means to you
Forget about our fantasy
That's not likely to happen anytime soon
I find it hard to forget
Bet cha' find it so hard to forget too
And I feel your shadow
A world away
A world away
Within crying distance
A world away
A world away from me
Do you still see?
I can't erase my memory
I could tell there was some sad story
Too tender, too soon
To pull it from your
I feel your shadow
A world away
A world away
Within crying distance
A world away
A world away from me
Doesn't mean I love you
Doesn't mean you love me too
Ain't no use in me hiding
My heart spilled out for you
Ohhhhhhhh
I feel your shadow
A world away
A world away
Within crying distance
A world away
A world away
I feel your shadow
A world away
A world away
Within crying distance
A world away
A world away from me
Oh - you are so far away from me
Oh love - so far, far, far away from me

AIN'T IT PRETTY TO THINK SO?
I don't understand the question
Your unemotional monotone
If a secret is calling me
No objection
Go ahead
Bring it on
You can feel a real connection
Kept within you so carefully
A heady cocktail in a new direction
Don't hesitate
Drink it in with me
If I could find you in that fleeting moment
When the past has let you go
We might have a piece of a chance
But as Hemingway said
"Ain't it pretty to think so?"
We move in opposite directions
Finding ourselves back in the same spot
Staring blankly into each other
Looking for what we have not
Stoic resignation
Drunken empty promises
One more regrettable hangover
One more aching head
If I could find you in that fleeting moment
When the past has let you go
We might have a piece of a chance
But as Hemingway said
"Ain't it pretty to think so?"
Give me true confessions
Tell me lies from your telephone
I can feed your deep obsessions
We ain't foolin' anyone
If I could find you in that fleeting moment
When the past has let you go
We might have a piece of a chance
But as Hemingway said
"Ain't it pretty to think so?"
But as Hemingway said
"Ain't it pretty to think so?"

SKYWRITING (TASMANIA)
Tasmania - I laid my eyes on you
Your ice blue water coast line
Mona's graceful hues
Still running pictures through my mind
We fly across the sea
On some uncharted journey
Gypsies wandering
As my heart melts
My soul sings
Like the waves that crash into the rocks below me
Ever changing
No predicting
Like clouds of thought
Our lives are all
Our lives are all - Skywriting
The hum of voices around me
It's almost like a lullaby
Cars circle, and circle, and circle
Waiting for passengers
And green lights - Oh Oh Oh Oh
Rough edges everywhere
Is this who I am?
Why should I give a damn?
Why do I care?
These never ending questions
Will they ever let me rest
Or be with me until I die
Until I die - Until I die?

Funny Way Of Showing It

FUNNY WAY OF SHOWING IT
You tell me you love me
I think maybe you don't
Cause you talk to me like I'm a second class citizen
Cept' when there's somethin' you want
You turn on your charm
And I'm your sugar and spice now
It's the first time since the last time you got laid
Yeah - you act so gallant
Forgive me if I don't believe you
Deceive me once
The shame is on you
Profess your love like a Shakespeare, Romeo
I'll keep my words simple and few
Oh you
You got a funny way of showing it
You seem so content
Like a bookstore on Sunday
Can I be your Barista
Serve you cappuccino
With a swirly little heart for you
Forgive me if I don't believe you
Deceive me once
The shame is on you
Profess your love like a Shakespeare, Romeo
I'll keep my words simple and few
Oh you
You got a funny way of showing it
Oh laugh it up
Laugh it up
Laugh it up
Yeah I played your fool
But now I've had enough
Call me crazy
Cause I called your bluff
The last laugh is on you - Oh
My fair weather friend
What can I do for you now
Can I pay off your loans
Or let you wipe your feet on me
One more time for good luck
Forgive me if I don't believe you
Deceive me once
The same is on you
Profess your love like a Shakespeare, Romeo
I'll keep my words simple and few
Oh you
You got a funny way of showing it
Oh you
You've got some funny ways
Yeah you
Oh you got a funny way of showing it
Oh you - you - Oh you
Got a funny way of showing it
Oh you

Where Are We Going?

WHERE ARE WE GOING
Tossed the handbook out your driver's window
Glad you remembered to duck
Not before I tore the page out
About not giving a f***
Folded carefully in my pocket
Anticipating the next trial
There's a fierce woman behind the wheel
With a renegade smile
Where are we going
Does it really exist
Someplace worth knowing
And I feel you insist
Into the dark or into the light
Love is all there is
And that is where we're going
I only know what love was to me
Try not to think about
There is someplace I'd rather be
Someplace I'm living without
Not too good at asking directions
But somehow we'll find our way
Take a look in the rear view mirror
All the mistakes we've made
Where are we going
Does it really exist
Someplace worth knowing
And I feel you insist
Into the dark or into the light
Love is all there is
And that is where we're going
Running low on patience and time
Stuck in the dreams that we dream
Could use a bed and a good long blink
And one more chance to redeem
Careful what you wish for
You may not know the cost
You can plan your destination
And still be lost
Where are we going
Does it really exist
Someplace worth knowing
Oh I feel you insist
Into the dark or into the light
Love is all there is
And that is where we're going

Bridges I Had To Burn
03:48

BRIDGES I HAD TO BURN
I - I still love you
From a safe distance
But the smoke from the fire
Still burns in my eyes
I've cried enough tears
To quench this raging
But there's no forgetting
The bridges I had to burn
Love
Some kind of mental delusion
We tell ourselves the story we want to hear
Hate
It's just the flip side
What we dreamed for so long turned out not to be
And I - I still love you
From a safe distance
But the smoke from the fire
Still burns in my eyes
I've cried enough tears
To quench its raging
But there's no forgetting
The bridges I had to burn
We
Thought we were friends
Till the moral compass pointed to the end
Fractured
Divided by dissension
Irreconcilably different
A tragedy
And I - I still love you
From a safe distance
But the smoke from the fire
Still burns in my eyes
I've cried enough tears
To quench this raging
But there's no forgetting
The bridges I had to burn
I - I still love you
From a safe distance
But the smoke from the fire
Still burns in my eyes
I've cried enough tears
To quench this raging
But there's no forgetting
The bridges I had to burn
Oh Oh
There's no forgetting
The bridges I had to burn
Oh no no no
Well there's no forgetting
The bridges I had to burn

Everyone Is Out Of Tune

EVERYONE IS OUT OF TUNE
Everyone is out of tune
We're not listening to each other
Scream and shout
Everyone is out of tune
Sorry I got so upset
Got up on my hind legs
Didn't mean to bite your head off
Right or wrong
We're taking sides
No collaboration
No compromise
Only dissonant conversation
Everyone is out of tune (Out of tune)
We're not listening to each other
Scream and shout (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Everyone is out of tune
Don't you think I know (Think I know)
You're a fire hazard
Waiting for a spark to blow
All your false alarms
Everyone is out of tune (Out of tune)
We're not listening to each other
Scream and shout (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Everyone is out of tune
Crossed over the line
When you tried to trap me
Not gonna buy it this time
You can't distract me
Everyone is out of tune (Out of tune)
We're not listening to each other
Scream and shout (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Everyone is out of tune

Ending Again

ENDING AGAIN
Haven't we tried
To abide?
Living apart and together
And didn't we say
Last time we strayed
There's nothing else that compares?
Here we are
Ending again
Maybe next time we'll know better
How many times
Has it been?
Ending again
Love rarified
Hard lullabies
Any such thing we imagined
We circle dance
Another chance
Before we say good-bye
Here we are
Ending again
Maybe next time we'll know better
How many times
Has is been?
Ending again
How many times
Has it been?
Ending again
