Gateway

I sit and hear the trouble
See the lights and sound of confusion
And all your words I can recall
You made your break
There’s not escape
And all your words I can’t recall
For what it’s worth I’ll walk alone
Through all this time I walk alone
I’ll make you mine as I walk alone
You said we’ve mended fences
It’s too soon to abandon trenches
And all these words I can’t recall
Here is the scene
The ends don’t meet
And all your words I can’t recall
For what it’s worth I’ll walk alone
Through all this time I walk alone
I’ll make you mine as I walk alone
And all we had is time
You had to stand in line just to see the stars shine in your eyes
And all we had is time
You had to stand in line with all your words I can’t recall
For what it’s worth I’ll walk alone
Through all this time I walk alone
I’ll make you mine as I walk alone
It’s the end of the gateway
It’s the end of the gateway
It’s the end of the gateway
It’s the end of the gateway

Chloe

Chloe smiles all the time she wants to be adored
She dresses up to the nines and pretends that she is bored
Chloe turns and smiles and says that ‘everything’s ok’
I don’t think she knows it now her mind has gone astray
She’s a loon
But she’ll kiss my head
Chloe’s been a party girl since she was just fifteen
She walks around in wigs and stuff to be sure that she is seen
She’s a loon
She’ll kiss my head
Chloe opens up her sky she sings a jaded lullaby
And wants to be like me and you who say goodbye, goodbye, and fall
So far down, so far down, all over you
Chloe has her hair dyed red she lays upon a river bed
With all her thoughts that kick and scream
You’ll fall so far down, so far down, all over you
Chloe’s been a party girl since she was just fifteen
She walks around in wigs and stuff to be sure that she is seen

Gone Blind

This old man takes me by the hand
Takes me to the promised land at dawn
Between a rock and a hard place she waits for me to come
I made a pact with the devil and his dizzy son
So long ago….
I sit and stare into the sun but sometimes it’s alright
I slip and slide until your mine, all the while I hold up signs
Take you to a distant place and all the way I hear you say
About the burning in your eyes
We’re so tired. You’ve gone blind.
She puts flowers on my window sill
At any moment she’ll have that thrill she craves
She shakes the dust out of her shoes
And writes her notes and sings her tunes
So softly
I sit and stare into the sun but sometimes it’s alright
I slip and slide until your mine, all the while I hold up signs
Take you to a distant place and all the way I hear you say
About the burning in your eyes
We’re so tired. You’ve gone blind.
Between a rock and a hard place she waits for me to come
I made a pact with the devil and his dizzy son
I sit and stare into the sun but sometimes it’s alright
I slip and slide until your mine, all the while I hold up signs
Take you to a distant place and all the way I hear you say
About the burning in your eyes
We’re so tired. You’ve gone blind.

Blue Cow

Take the road to make believe to see all the things you don’t believe
Like a world of talking trees that say “hello” and then “goodnight”
I don’t believe they’re talking to me but what they’re saying seems alright
So I think I’ll stay awhile or at least another night
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
I don’t know but I think I’ve known you
But I just can’t recognize
All the roads are long and winding
Run in circles all the time
Then they fade, and then they fade away
Then they fade, and then they fade away
Just like my Blue Cow!
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
I don’t think the time has come to recognize
All reason has left and gone away
Looking through the window to watch the world go past
With all the words you said, you’d say
You’d say. You would say.
All the signs will take me to the corner of nothing and nowhere
And the shame, it paints a picture of me
Take the road to make believe to see all the things you don’t believe
Then they fade, and then they fade away
Just like my Blue Cow!
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.
Hey now! Blue Cow! All I say is all I want is you.

Face

There’s an ocean all around you and you shimmer in the sky
Left alone, growing cold in sunshine
A whisper moves beneath my skin don’t fall on me
Round and round and round and round we go
We’re still so far, still so far away from home
Do you need to make me cry?
Will that make it all alright?
If I fall into the sea do you think you’ll believe in me?
And with every sense of loss, I hate to be the source of
Even an ounce of pain running through that pretty face
I watched you through the night
I’ve gazed into your crystal set eyes
It’s such a shame, that you’ll just fade away with time
Your imagery was so obscene, don’t fall for me
Round and round and round and round we go
We’re still so far, still so far away from home
Do you need to make me cry?
Will that make it all alright?
If I fall into the sea do you think you’ll believe in me?
And with every sense of loss, I hate to be the source of
Even an ounce of pain running through that pretty face
Do you need to make me cry?
Will that make it all alright?
If I fall into the sea do you think you’ll believe in me?
And with every sense of loss, I hate to be the source of
Even an ounce of pain running through that pretty face
Do you need to make me cry?
Will that make it all alright?
If I fall into the sea do you think you’ll believe in me?
And with every sense of loss, I hate to be the source of
Even an ounce of pain running through that pretty face

Evangeline
03:39

He’s placed underneath a dimming light
He’s been standing there for hours
Apologizing for his mind but his sickness is running wild
And her memory’s a library
It’s sixteen stories high
She burns down days and masquerades
He retreats into the night.
Evangeline is on the scene, she’s got the urge to please (to please)
Evangeline, she’s lost in dreams. She lives inside his make believe
Evangeline
He and she are miles apart, she slips into his brain
It’s precursor of his premonition and it hits him like a train
Then she stands up tall within a tower, her eyes are made of glass
Sneering down on all of this as she watches him go past
Evangeline is on the scene, she’s got the urge to please (to please)
Evangeline, she’s lost in dreams. She lives inside his make believe
Evangeline
She retreats into the night, murmuring this song
He’s standing all alone, is she really gone?
She’s counting all this time, where everything’s alright
Will he realize that she’s deep within disguise?
Walking through the fields, murmuring his tune
Evangeline is on the scene, she’s got the urge to please (to please)
Evangeline, she’s lost in dreams. She lives inside his make believe
Evangeline lost at sea, it’s never what it seems (it seems)
Evangeline is on the scene, she’s got the urge to please (to please)
Evangeline, she’s lost in dreams. She lives inside his make believe
Evangeline lost at sea, it’s never what it seems (it seems)

Blue Light

Your eyes are a blanket of blue light
You’re gone but the scars remain
It’s as clear as the devil in daylight
The signs are there but they are not the same
I’ve only ever wanted the sunshine
To entwine me in a seal of faith
I only ever wished for you sometimes
But I always believed in, always believed in you
The line up to heavens a circle
But where you’re standing you’ve just been stalled
If you want to turn around and come back home
I would hope they would show you the way
The pathway leading through yesterday
Is clouded by a foggy trail
As memory begins to fade
You are always a part of me
I always believed in you.
I always believed in you.
I always believed in you. (your eyes are a blanket of blue light)
I always believed in you. (your eyes are a blanket of blue light)
I always believed in you. (your eyes are a blanket of blue light)
I always believed in you. (your eyes are a blanket of blue light)

Over You
04:41

The sun will shine like a lost December
Driving around in my car
The stories being told about you today
Make you seem so strange
Oh yeah, I am over you
Oh yeah, I am over you
The hallway leading to your door
Is covered in dust and more
With all the winds of a hurricane
I could not take you away from this place
Oh yeah, I am over you
Oh yeah, I am over you
Nobody wants to be one of a kind
Nobody wants to be stuck in a line
Nobody wants to have a one track mind
Nobody wants to be lost inside you
Inside you
Nobody wants to be one of a kind
Nobody wants to be stuck in a line
Nobody wants to have a one track mind
Nobody wants to be lost inside you
Inside you
Oh yeah, I am over you
Oh yeah, I am over you
