The Big Undone

I just wanna lie here
tuning out everyone
fall asleep in my chair
dreaming of the big undone
but you put up one
hell of a fight
you put up one
hell of a fight
I just wanna go out
never have to say hello
find a place to come down
watch you let me let you go
but you put up one
hell of a fight
you put up one
hell of a fight
honey test my patience
I’m a rat & you’re my cage
all my worries end up baseless
you say, you say
I just wanna lie here
tuning out everyone
fall asleep in my chair
dreaming of the big undone
but you put up one
hell of a fight
you put up one
hell of a fight

Promises to the Dark

gotta let the water flow
gotta let the traffic grow
gotta let your lover wait
tell her that we’re all okay
gotta let the circus sway
gotta let the half heart lay
gotta let the liar pray
gotta let the artist ache
inside making promises to the dark
in the half light escaping all our scars
pure love like the drugs we dug
on the bathroom floor
I keep waking up at your door
gotta let the fuhrer fade
gotta let the criminal hang
gotta let the bums all beg
even when there’s nothing left
gotta let the shadow shade
gotta let the dreamer gaze
gotta let the pure heart break
gotta let the rats here race
inside making promises to the dark
in the half light escaping all our scars
pure love like the drugs we dug
on the bathroom floor
I keep waking up at your door
gotta let the light back in
gotta let the hatred lift
gotta know death won’t wait
we gotta learn to forgive fate
gotta let the garden bloom
gotta let the fire plume
gotta let her teach you
gotta let the mantra through
gotta let the mantra through
gotta let the mantra through
inside making promises to the dark
in the half light escaping all our scars
pure love like the drugs we dug
on the bathroom floor
I keep waking up at your door

sugar street
it’s hard to leave
you & me
making love
she really clears my head
of the emptiness
makes an honest bed
when she comes
she comes
with her hand on my throat
with eyes the size of god she watches over us
half my love
is gonna fill your cup
ruin your rug
have some fun
on sugar street
it’s all you need
you & me
going up up up
with eyes the size of god she watches over us

faraway in rockaway
the gutter punks are keeping my heart strange
I tied a noose to claire de lune
stole some shoes & tried to change my face
& went out under the bright lights
I fell right out from her blue eyes
how little everything can mean
when the one thing that means everything leaves
we've been spinning like a satellite thrown around the sky
round & round tonight
up & down depression bound
when the sycophantic santa fe sun pounds
when you scream do you think of me
& the way we never could keep our sheets clean
& all that life that poured from our bed
I wonder now who you’re sharing it with
how little everything can mean
when the one thing that means everything leaves
we've been spinning like a satellite thrown around the sky
round & round tonight
careful baby what you know
careful there among all them fake assholes
feeding on your bright white light, caught up in their ride
round & round tonight
faraway in rockaway
the gutter punks are keeping my heart strange
I tied a noose to claire de lune
stole some shoes & tried to change my face

such a hard round comin round, you pay to ride
casanova you’re on my mind
in cheyenne I felt that poltergeist love swinging back
& break my jaw again
it’s so hard to take it
when your baby’s laying with somebody else
& everyone one I ever knew back then
they’re on the cross or a syringe
everyone I ever knew back then
they’re on the cross or a syringe
it’s so hard to take it
when your baby’s laying with somebody else
with somebody else
tell me what you did what you did last night
I’ll tell you what I did what I did last night
tell me what you did what you did last night
I’ll tell you what I did tell you what I did
in time she’ll find I’m hers, she’s been mine
since the dawn of life she’s a friend alright
a hard round comin round, you pay to ride
walking lighter now that charlie manson’s in the ground
it’s so hard to take it
when your baby’s laying with somebody else
withs somebody else
tell me what you did what you did last night
I’ll tell you what I did what I did last night
tell me what you did what you did last night
I’ll tell you what I did tell you what I did

Golden Wall

|
there’s a golden wall here between us
I’m climbing it just to see ya
to nod along to superstition
& to fiend without any reservation
to watch the new wave from your shoulder
to hide away in bed & your corner
as if any one day could ever feel stranger
lost in a maze I found a picture
coulda been my face coulda been your sister
still swooned through white smoke
bleed the fools long live the pasture
bleed the fools tear down your master

Canyon Dogs

It was goodbye before the summer
strangled lovers taking cover
a porcelain kiss under big sur winds
hope you find when I’m back on my feet babe
there’s a chrome angel aching
a hundred eyes & no faces
past life tribes & a heart worn ride
I held your sister like my very own & prayed
to a god I don’t believe in
through the sistine chapel we ran
everyone’s eyes looking up toward the sky
couldn’t keep from staring at you either way
the canyon dogs are howling now
they want you more than ever
the city lights are painting
such a perfect picture on you
in the shadows we were singing
out from your window we leapt
everyone heard down on sugar street I learned
what it really meant to give myself away
boyish in my wonder
helpless in our hunger
together we wept in a hospital bed
knowing that forever your body changed
through all those storms pounding
& all the thieves that surround us
I keep you close as the distance grows
caught up in the core of the earth we sway
the canyon dogs are howling now
they want you more than ever
the city lights are painting
such a perfect picture on you
are you leaving every place
I couldn’t find or I was late to
was the war everything
you wanted or better
the canyon dogs are howling now
they want you more than ever
the city lights are painting
such a perfect picture on you
it was goodbye before the summer
psychic lovers taking cover
live & let go all things will grow
there’s still your blood on the mattress where we laid

In the Afterglow

I’ll be thirty one in the morning
twenty one if I wake
I’ll see ya
when I’m lucky
I’m dreaming in the west now
I know you should have came
it’s like heaven
maybe better
there’s a devil’s clock in my head
I’m walking in reverse
just to hear ya
call me a cheapskate
it’s a shame now
we gotta split now
after all these years
there’s people dying to meet you
I got a grand & a red eye there
some days are perfect
others are worthless
we drove around st. petersburg
where the cascading water fades
I went to bed a millionaire
woke up bored as hell
wired tight from happenstance
some white noise I’m dreaming through
they call that a rubicon
I’ll be crossing too
it’s a shame now
we gotta split now
after all these years
