Rectify

red lights burn clouded eyes
ya'll took me by surprise
no use in tellin' lies
the day has come to rectify
beat down left black & blue
not sure now what i'll do
fight the man or pay my dues
i've come unglued
pick me out from the police line
still got my axe to grind
rock & roll to pass the time
my eyes have cleared i've seen the sign
red lights burn clouded eyes
ya'll took me by surprise
but i got solid alibis
the day has come to rectify

you ain't no friend of mine
you laid me on the line
when i stood up by your side
keep your friends in stride
cause when you need you will see
on who you can rely
you ain't no friend of mine
you dragged me on down your line
and now im doin' time

Dream Seed
04:00
|
|||
|
plant a little seed
and watch a life unfold
i've got allyou need
to make you're garden full
stay close to me
cause my body it's so cold
from all that i have seen
my eyes feel tired and old
take everything from me
you've taken all you need
what more could you want from me
just leave me be
from this little seed
a new life has grown
search through rocky seas
to put my mind at ease

7:58 am
04:22
|
|||
|
broken doors and open drawers
trying to find the answer to a mystery
... one you cannot see
disassembling my world
watching all my folds unfurl you study me
... and where I keep my dreams
sitting in a concrete cell
trying to find where my hear fell
... away from me
contemplate the state im in
thinking that things could have worked out diferently
... but we'll never see
and this darkness inside of me
... you set it free
... you have set free

Slide Along
03:43
|
|||
|
close your eyes turn off your mind
it'll be alright when we see the light
nobody knows how deep it goes
so just hold on as we slide along
... home
open your eyes woke up your mind
let the darkness and light recombine
no one can see what will be come of me
on the other side as we continue to slide
... home
as fine grains of sand fall through a hand
cannot recall seeing at all
no one but me knows my reality
so i make it mine as we continue to slide
... alone

Syd's Viscious
04:05
|
|||
|
foot falls soft on wet concrete
there's no moon tonight and no light to see me
i creep down the street to where i wait for my prey
i'll wait here all night no i wont go away
now night starts to warm and i get afraid
i know what comes next that bright light of day
so i return to my home and you open the door
i go back to sleep just like the morning before
by the river's bend is where i went away
yea i went away and i'm staying away
i returned to home, yeah my home in the wild
but dont be afraid, i'll see you in a while

Drive Away
02:37
|
|||
|
i go for a drive to clear out my mind
chasing away all the bad thoughts of the day
watching the lines blur in front and behind
i close my eyes
dead leaves are falling all around me
and i can't stop the pain
i reach for my keys step into the rain
and drive away
continue to drive to the edge of the sky
drift into space where i can find some peace
the night is above me the earth is behind
i close my eyes
|

Big Mistake Blues
04:19
|
|||
|
thought i was on the right road
thought i was flying high
till one day they came a knockin'
thought i was gonna die
well i can't undo my ways
so i'm livin' big mistakes
took me away from my home
took me away as i cried
cried out to my lover
but i was locked inside
yea i can't undo my ways
so i'm livin' big mistakes
look out through the window
look on out at the sky
close my eyes breathe in the blues
that blanket all our lives
no i can't undo my ways
so i'm livin' big mistakes
|

Left Hangin'
02:59
|
|||
|
well i'm gonna sing you a story
about a man i knew to well
we used to roll together
till we ended up in jail
woke up late in the morning
and my good friend had gone
you know he left me hangin'
hangin' round singin' this song
took a bus cross country
with junkies whores and thieves
running away from judgement day
no he wound find no retreat
