Dark Matter
03:34

|
Don’t know if I’ve ever been this lonely
Standing inside those gates
Have I ceased expanding from this marble?
Stuck forever in this static state
Lights in the way you looked at me
Shine like prisms through a diamond mind
Consciousness caressed my being
Bent me back from the edges of time
These cannot be just vibrations
You’re not simply molecules
But sometimes it seems
Like it’s all dark matter
Cause I come from the same emptiness
Deconstructed words form zeros and ones
Worlds they explained in numbers
I describe in movements of moons and suns
We’re from the same stars and dust
Of orbits and objects sometime before
Form from nothing I’m sure I was created
On some other planet on some distant shore
These cannot be just vibrations
You’re not simply molecules
But sometimes it seems
Like it’s all dark matter
These cannot be just vibrations
You’re not simply molecules
But sometimes it seems
Like it’s all dark matter

Time & Space
03:20
|

|
Dust from dust lungs to lungs
Hold me close until daylight comes
You’ll be gone for good
We’ve been down this road
A thousand times before
But this time I think I’ve had enough
Darling it’s true
I could spend my life getting old with you
But you made your choice and now your gone
For so long I’ve seen
Your face in this endless time and space
And as we roll around the sun
Face to face heart to heart
Every ending had a start
And ours was good
We’ve been down this road
A thousand times before
But this time I think I’ve got to let go
Darling it’s true
I could spend my life getting old with you
But you made your choice and now your gone
For so long I’ve seen
Your face in this endless time and space
And as we roll around the sun
When I think about you I see your face
Darling I see your face, love I see your face
In this endless time and space
Darling it’s true
I could spend my life getting old with you
But you made your choice and now your gone
For so long I’ve seen
Your face in this endless time and space
And as we roll around the sun

Bad Side of Town
04:07

Why do all the good people
Live on the bad side of town
And them bad folks on the good side
Always dragging me down
Watch them gather
Watch them gather all their gold
All them promises
All them promises that they were sold
To fill the emptiness they feel inside
But you can’t take it with you when you die
Why do all the good people
Live on the bad side of town
And them bad folks on the good side
Always dragging me down
When I had nothing
I had nowhere to be
Just my people
My neighborhood and me
Cause we had everything we need
Cause the only real things in life are free
Why do all the good people
Live on the bad side of town
And them bad folks on the good side
Always dragging me down

Pockets of Creation
03:32
|

|
Everyone’s afraid everyone’s afraid
Of everybody else
From nothing breeds something
Something turns into life itself
Take my hand
Walk this road together my friend
Listless wanderer
Straight in the pockets of creation
Back through the door in which we came
Loneliness loneliness
Keeps my body from my soul
Consciousness consciousness
Keeps my mind separate from yours
Take my hand
Walk this road together my friend
Listless wanderer
Straight in the pockets of creation
Back through the door in which we came

Saint Anne
05:01
|

|
Saint Anne puts her makeup on in the pew
In a cathedral raised up from Incan ruins
Carefully so the man upstairs won’t confuse
Who she is from what she’s been doing
It’s six one way a half dozen the other
Reign one day next day your taking cover
Move a million stones and discover
What is right most men don’t seem to bother
We’re gonna bleed all we can from this stone
Drink more than our share till the cup runs dry
When it’s all said and done and she washes us away
Someone will have the nerve to curse the sky
It’s all black and white and shades of gray
Hanging men from bronze chandeliers
Faded canvas and semi-precious metal
Gated minu let’s keep track of the years
The air is cold and it smells like property
Lingering scents of what we tried to own
Is this all some sick hallucination
Masks and mirages disguise the feeling that we’re alone
We’re gonna bleed all we can from this stone
Drink more than our share till the cup runs dry
When it’s all said and done and she washes us away
Someone will have the nerve to curse the sky
We’re all gonna bleed, we’re all gonna bleed
We’re all gonna bleed, we’re all gonna bleed
We’re all gonna bleed from the same dam stone
Drink more than our share till the cup runs dry
When it’s all said and done and she washes us away
Someone will have the nerve to curse the sky

Minnesota Sky
04:11
|
|||
|
Come on darling it’s just a walk
Decide later if you want to marry me
It’s the melodies in the way you talk that lets me see
The simple arrangement of our destiny
I’ll see you always in the Minnesota sky
Falling slowly away from me
I could never hold a shooting star
I am who I am you are who you are
Cause I can’t offer you this world
All of these bodies are moving away
Pearls gold and rock all dissolve into the sand
Promise to hold you the best that I can
I’ll see you always in the Minnesota sky
Falling slowly away from me
I could never hold a shooting star
I am who I am you are who you are
Hold me gently as the sun sets in our eyes
Tied to the moon swinging into the night
I’ll see you always in a Minnesota sky
Falling slowly away from me
I could never hold a shooting star
I am who I am we are who we are

Ventricles
03:39
|

|
Could you drive me home in all this bitterness?
Of all these run-on sentences
Can’t remember simple definitions
Of what I was the night before
Corrosive terminal dusted lime green
Find me on somebody’s porch swing
Well he runs good he just won’t start
Forgetting my lines not knowing my part
If you would finally see me
Not for who I was but who I could be
Not this mess of veins and ventricles
Holding fast to you like tentacles
Can’t slow down my brakes have been cut
Fluids all drained out I can’t get unstuck
Nothing to live for and no one to lose
Holes in my walls my hands been bruised
When you finally let go I had gone too far
Wrote a perfect song left it on the bar
Spent three days in that dumpster trying to track it down
What it said struck me profound
If you would finally see me
Not for who I was but who I could be
Not this mess of veins and ventricles
Holding fast to you like tentacles
If you would finally see me
Not for who I was but who I could be
Not this mess of veins and ventricles
Holding fast to you like tentacles
Holding fast to you like tentacles
Holding fast to you like tentacles

Mangrove
03:55
|

|
Fortune in my pocket says bravely done
Let it go your time will come
Don’t bother lying
Washing windows in the rain
Skipping postcards over puddles
Let’s go down to the mangrove
We can fool around down there
Away from those wandering eyes
Loose ears and dextrose stares
There’s plenty of dreamers on the westside
I’m as guilty as the rest
I won’t promise you more
If I know that I’ve got less
Peace wanes like the moon’s phases
Steadily seeking homeostasis
One day it will chase us
Tripping on our shoelaces
Too stubborn for social graces
Let’s go down to the mangrove
We can fool around down there
Away from those wandering eyes
Loose ears and dextrose stares
There’s plenty of dreamers on the westside
I’m as guilty as the rest
I won’t promise you more
If I know that I’ve got less
