In and Outta Prison
02:48

If you don't mind I believe it's time that I excuse myself.
I meant no more harm to you but after what you put me through-
I look at love as a poison apple in your crooked hand.
Ain't it just like a woman to abandon her man?
I'm sleepin in, I been slippin in and out of prison.
I will never forgive nor forget you 'til I'm dead.
And all this talk of death has left me feeling short of breath.
Why do you always misuse yourself, and all the good that's come to you that you dismiss as nothing new.
When karma comes to callin the bottom gonna fall on out-
when the banker shows up unannounced to repossess your house!
I'm sleepin in, I been slippin in and out of prison.
I will never forgive nor forget you 'til I'm dead.
And all this talk of death has left me feeling short of breath.
Well I think it's time that I remove myself from the scenes that I always seem to find when you weigh heavy on my mind.
I look at love as a poison apple in your crooked little hand.
Ain't it just like a liberated woman to abandon her man?
I'm sleepin in, I been slippin in and out of prison.
I will never forgive nor forget you 'til I'm dead.
And all this talk of death has left me feeling short of breath.

You in the Dark
02:21
|

If you're looking for me, I don't wanna be found.
Try as you might you're never gonna figure me out.
The truth is I don't feel like coming home-
and I'd be gone if I had somewhere else to go.
I've been a good boy, loyal and true, but lately I don't feel like rollin over for you.
It ain't easy for me to be everything to everybody I see.
My mind is nether here nor there, when I'm scared I simply act like I just don't care.
II been a steady dog, heel and obey, but lately I don't feel much like making your day.
Oh you know I would go out tonight and get up to no good if I thought that I could cover my lark, but there's just no keeping you in the dark.
I been the warm body under your feet, but lately I don't feel like beggin you for a treat.
Oh you know I would go out tonight and get up to no good if I thought your heart a walk in the park but there's just no keeping you
just no keeping you
just no keeping you in the dark.

Was a Time
03:20

I bid you fond farewell threw your bonnet to the bluebells-
you did what you set out to do-you turned the cruel world a beautiful hue.
True love, more than enough to get me through love, so I will never need a new love, I know the truth and I owe it to you.
Time. If only I woulda made more time our last goodbye might not have been quite so sad.
Time was the last thing on my mind, when time sweet time was all we had.
Honest man, been an honest man, since the day you promised me your hand 'til the bitter end.
True love. I have nothing left to prove love, no mountains to move, and no use in hanging round the fountain of youth.
Time. If only I woulda made more time our last goodbye might not have been quite so sad.
Time was the last thing on my mind, when time sweet time was all we had.

The Way I Am
03:15
|

I'm tired all I do is sleep I get outta bed I'm dead on my feet.
Dead to the world is alive and kicking me around.
It's a waste of time, time and again, trying to climb out of the hole I'm in-
hole I'm in, deeper than I've ever been down.
I can't stand the way I am these days-I can't stand the way I am these days
Breakin in the glove, was a long time growin up-
When I was young, I couldn't wait to be old enough
It's hopeless now I've run outta steam my will is dead I cease to dream-
pretty soon now I'm taking up space in the ground, the ground, the ground.
I can't stand the way I am these days-I can't stand the way I am these days
Breakin in the glove, was a long time growin up-
When I was young, I couldn't wait to be old enough

The Clear

What's done is done, yeah the script it's been written-
you're determined to earn back my trust.
It ain't me baby, or should I call you kitten?
What's all the fuss, there's nothing left to discuss.
I'm just now gettin back to the business of livin,
a silver linin, in your cloud of dust.
Well now you're all about attrition, but the wedge that's been driven between us is too deep for the diggin up.
You're the scourge of the earth my dear-
You're bleedin out, you'll find no bandage here.
I won't tend to your wounds, I hate to burst your balloons-
It's no use I'm over you I'm in the clear.
So I hear you found a new hope in that old time religion-
nice touch, but I find it all a little much.
Can't you see baby, or should I call you pigeon?
You'll never be a dove your pious isn't pure enough.
You're the scourge of the earth my dear-
You've all the charm of a cheap souvenir.
No thanks for your time you can't uncross the line-
It's no use I'm through with you I'm in the clear-
And you're the same dizzy dame that you were last year.

I come through the dustbowl, tornado alley, now I'm on a flood plain in the Red River Valley.
Come through a drought and a funnel cloud just in time to see the levy give out.
They say love makes the world go 'round, something I know nothing about.
That's something I know nothing about.
LIvin on a fault line the end is always close.
I show up early ahead of my time and I never leave my post.
All the while the earth is shiftin I'm just driftin' in and out of sleep.
Fallin' in and out of favour with the company I keep- those who know my history.
You'll find me day or night, makin my white noise, makin anything to drown out the sound of a little voice.
Something in my head telling me I need to be a better man-
It's like the faint cry of a conscience with a short attention span-
With a short attention span.
Well it's ashes to ashes, ashes all around.
It ain't as fun to build a house as it is to burn one down.
Take it from the master you'll know all about disaster after I'm done-
I'll be out of your grasp and into your past just as fast as I can run-
Just as fast as I can run.

Vines of Divine Design

Hush. Don't make a sound. The word is out. I got you surrounded.
And you're my only friend. You're the water and the wind.
You flow and blow all over the land, and in and out of my hands.
Stop. Don't turn around. You tie me down and I keep you grounded.
In all our years of climbing stairs we've nothing to fear we're nearly there.
Dear, oh dear.
I believe a love, can never be deceased-
it still lives among the scattered leaves of our lives.

Another Night Out
02:11

Put the cap on another night out on the town, unaccompanied-
I keep to myself I got a clean bill of health and there ain't nobody countin on me.
I'm a man runnin outta time. I take the trail less traveled by.
It's another day gone in and outta my mind. I lost my bride and my best dog died.
So put the cap on another night out on the town, unaccompanied-
My bed stays made and my bills get paid and there ain't nobody countin on me.
HEY!
I'm a man from another time, no pizazz, there's only black and white-
Nothing I can see, nothing you can say-
is gonna make me go and try to find a better way.
Put the cap on another night out on the town, unaccompanied-
my troubles I forgot 'em, I'll see you at the bottom,
there ain't nobody countin' on me, no there ain't nobody countin' on me.
