She's over there ( You mean Tilly ?) shut up she's looking over, shit she's coming over. Hi
Wild child of the broken streets
flash mob where the false smiles meet
punk rock for the paupers,
disappointments only daughter.
The rain tasted of your name,
swept away with a different strange.
She separates her mind
from what you believe,
to dance away the day
with thoughts like thieves.
Headwind of the hurricane,
night riding the slow train,
I saw you in a summer dress
big boots and a frozen mess.
dyed hair and catholic shame
another cut and gone again.
She separates her mind
from what...
flash mob where the false smiles meet
punk rock for the paupers,
disappointments only daughter.
The rain tasted of your name,
swept away with a different strange.
She separates her mind
from what you believe,
to dance away the day
with thoughts like thieves.
Headwind of the hurricane,
night riding the slow train,
I saw you in a summer dress
big boots and a frozen mess.
dyed hair and catholic shame
another cut and gone again.
She separates her mind
from what...

Revelry
The morning pangs still drum out revelry
but now are cast aside in this self-made leprosy
ten days gone might as well be a thousand
but no one's counting when you're already suffering
So I hit the shelf and pour out some punishment
get riled up on CNN and the government
I burn my songs with a lifetime effigy
senseless days long lost in the wondering
Midday comes and the smoke's still stuttering
life's a mess, as my mind keeps uttering
ten days gone might as well be a thousand
but no one's counting when you're...
but now are cast aside in this self-made leprosy
ten days gone might as well be a thousand
but no one's counting when you're already suffering
So I hit the shelf and pour out some punishment
get riled up on CNN and the government
I burn my songs with a lifetime effigy
senseless days long lost in the wondering
Midday comes and the smoke's still stuttering
life's a mess, as my mind keeps uttering
ten days gone might as well be a thousand
but no one's counting when you're...

Jesus like cash
I've never sang in one of them old Honky Tonks
Can't say I have paid the cost,
Of what them great Cowboys lost,
while out punching the trail
cuz I've never done it myself
But theres something about me
since i was a child
Cant help feeling free n wild
Roaming the plains,
really living lifes game ,
blowing across the land
like an old dusty tumbleweed
idk why its just something
my soul seems to need
Keep your eyes to the sky
and your feet on the ground,
try to stay around that fine...

A Senryú Ode To Somewhere Over The Rainbow
Somewhere bluebirds fly
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I

Prams, Piers and Gutter Tears
The traffic of breaths
Gridlocked broken promises
Along summer’s exhausted highroad.
Enter stage left:
The performance of her life
Delivered splayed wide
(on a piss-stained mattress).
Under the croak of creaking pier,
The rivets nailed the baby to the floor.
Another bottle and the waves of
Suggestion will invite her in.
The girl just couldn’t take it anymore.
Gridlocked broken promises
Along summer’s exhausted highroad.
Enter stage left:

Delivered splayed wide
(on a piss-stained mattress).
Under the croak of creaking pier,
The rivets nailed the baby to the floor.
Another bottle and the waves of
Suggestion will invite her in.
The girl just couldn’t take it anymore.

Fenestre'
Slung toward airs furthermore thru pane
Untold sin suffers a hidden silent shame
Begats a weary soul toward ground bed
Toss do tumble so find upon their head
*chorus
Untold sin suffers a hidden silent shame
Begats a weary soul toward ground bed

My nanna used to say...
My nanna used to say,
always tell the truth no matter what,
it's better to be an honest fool than a dodgy crook,
Believe in yourself, a personality is better than a look,
Don't waste your time on technology,
Instead read a book.
You see my nanna was cut from a different cloth,
She came from an era where you worked for everything you got
I remember she said,
as long as you've got a roof over your head,
food in your belly and a nice warm bed,
That's a good start,
And with the warmth in your heart,
And the joy that you...
always tell the truth no matter what,
it's better to be an honest fool than a dodgy crook,
Believe in yourself, a personality is better than a look,
Don't waste your time on technology,
Instead read a book.
You see my nanna was cut from a different cloth,

And with the warmth in your heart,
And the joy that you...

Mary's Song
Let me tell you a story
Of a girl I met in January named Mary/
Used to sit beside me in university psychology/
I remember first day of
Second term I was
Too shy to even say “hi”
Taken by the beauty of her
Brown skin, hair, and eyes/
Soft-spoken, hard workin’, quick thinkin’
Intelligent, always staying on the
Straight and narrow
Never veering off the path she was meant to follow/
Pretty quickly we became friendly
No romances, no private dances
Though we started hanging out
Between classes/
Week after...
Of a girl I met in January named Mary/

Soft-spoken, hard workin’, quick thinkin’
Intelligent, always staying on the
Straight and narrow
Never veering off the path she was meant to follow/
Pretty quickly we became friendly
No romances, no private dances
Though we started hanging out
Between classes/

Fear In My Fingers.
I'm standing here alone
I'm watching things unfold
Then suddenly I'm told.....
WAIT!
Its since we took those steps
That I've had no regrets
But suddenly I'm told.....
WAIT!
Didn't it show
That love is all that matters
Didn't it show
Your love is all that matters
You've given me
Fear In My Fingers.

Humiliation Street
I survived the dinner
With the air getting thinner
And I retired to the pond
But it got so loud there
If I die at this moment
Take it from a distance
Maybe they'll list it
Among other things
This urban environment ...
With the air getting thinner
And I retired to the pond
But it got so loud there
If I die at this moment
Take it from a distance
Maybe they'll list it
Among other things
This urban environment ...
