Where Did You Go
Fever
Sister
Let It Go
Brain Pollution
Moonlit Night
To Colleen
Nowhere Fast
The Station
Nothin' to Show
Daydream

Brain Pollution
Moonlit Night

Daydream
Where Did You Go
Dancing was your dream
You were young and like a queen
On the stage no eye could leave you
Beauty at the seams
Naked in the rain, crying for the trees
How you smiled when I found those blankets
Where did you go
When you up and left us your body
I miss the hell out of you
Who's gonna know
Who's gonna bring me down slowly
I miss the hell out of you
For years I was away
You stayed for your sister so she didn't have to pay
For your mothers disease and a bottle collection
And it weighed you down deep
But you held her close while she fought through her teeth
And now all she wants is your forgiveness
Where did you go
When you up and left us your body
I miss the hell out of you
Were you alone
When you held on to your last breath
I miss the hell out of you
So far yet so bright
I know you're there dancing with the sun
And on that crystal night
You wanted to stay but you didn't feel right
Ann had just left and you thought I was grieving
But I was always for you
Just waiting with others but I thought you knew
Now you are gone so I am leaving here for good
Where did you go
When you up and left us your body
I miss the hell out of you
Who's gonna know
Who's gonna bring me down slowly
I miss the hell out of you
Dancing was your dream
You were young and like a queen
On the stage no eye could leave you
Beauty at the seams
Naked in the rain, crying for the trees
How you smiled when I found those blankets
Where did you go
When you up and left us your body
I miss the hell out of you
Who's gonna know
Who's gonna bring me down slowly
I miss the hell out of you
For years I was away
You stayed for your sister so she didn't have to pay
For your mothers disease and a bottle collection
And it weighed you down deep
But you held her close while she fought through her teeth
And now all she wants is your forgiveness
Where did you go
When you up and left us your body
I miss the hell out of you
Were you alone
When you held on to your last breath
I miss the hell out of you
So far yet so bright
I know you're there dancing with the sun
And on that crystal night
You wanted to stay but you didn't feel right
Ann had just left and you thought I was grieving
But I was always for you
Just waiting with others but I thought you knew
Now you are gone so I am leaving here for good
Where did you go
When you up and left us your body
I miss the hell out of you
Who's gonna know
Who's gonna bring me down slowly
I miss the hell out of you
Fever
He spent a lot of time at the ocean, getting his feet wet
He never did get caught up on emotion, he was a bank check
And then she settled in, and closer they got
And ever since he’s been cryin out
Help me out of the woods, I’ve got a fever
Help me out of the woods man, I’ve got a fever
He grew up on the sidewalk, looking for a priestess
He was caught upon arrival, when she said taste this
And he knew right away that he could not deal
Cause there was nothing in his head that she could not steal
And the more he made he would give away
The more he made he would pray pray pray
And since she settled in, closer they got
And ever since he’s been crying out
Help me out of the woods, I’ve got a fever
Help me out of the woods man, I’ve got a fever
She only stayed on the weekends, she loved her day job
Helping woman, healing women, and at night a a god damned shiva
Well she'd give me the eye on every double take
And I was treading water just to stay clear of her wake
But she had those big eyes to see you
That toned front to greet you, Those plum lips to feed you
She walked right, and she talked right, I knew she'd feel right ….
She walked right, she talked right I knew she'd feel right ….
And I'd say walk away, no honey please don’t walk away
Then I'd say walk away, no honey please don’t walk away…..
With her backless shirt and her curly auburn hair
She’d bend over backwards just to let you stare
But she owned her body, she owned her mind
And it was all I could do to keep from losing mine
Since she settled in, closer they got
And ever since we’ve been cryin out….
Help me out of the woods, I’ve got a fever
Help me out of the woods man, I’ve got a fever
He spent a lot of time at the ocean, getting his feet wet

And ever since he’s been cryin out
Help me out of the woods, I’ve got a fever

Sister
He was a soldier, you heard the call
You taught him to love and he taught you to fall
Now you lay baptized and at the ceiling you stare
One hand grippin a bucket and the other your hair
So hear me now sister that you need your rest
And I will do my best to help you clean up your life
But one stone at a time
You shiver in your sleep and cry when you wake
All your friends are in the kitchen drinking coffee while they wait
And I know it ain’t easy to take back what you gave.
But if you get a foot out that door again you’ll have two in the grave
So hear me now sister that you need your rest
And I will do my best to help you clean up your life
But one stone at a time
There’s light in your eyes when you smile hello
And I’ll take you home when you’re ready to go
But keep your head clear and don’t let him find
Out where you are, where you been, where you are going, what you are doing with your time
And you tell me now sister that you feel alright
And you can heal yourself and soon be singin’ again
But one stone at a time
He was a soldier, you heard the call
You taught him to love and he taught you to fall
Now you lay baptized and at the ceiling you stare
One hand grippin a bucket and the other your hair
So hear me now sister that you need your rest
And I will do my best to help you clean up your life
But one stone at a time
You shiver in your sleep and cry when you wake
All your friends are in the kitchen drinking coffee while they wait
And I know it ain’t easy to take back what you gave.
But if you get a foot out that door again you’ll have two in the grave
So hear me now sister that you need your rest
And I will do my best to help you clean up your life
But one stone at a time
There’s light in your eyes when you smile hello
And I’ll take you home when you’re ready to go
But keep your head clear and don’t let him find
Out where you are, where you been, where you are going, what you are doing with your time
And you tell me now sister that you feel alright
And you can heal yourself and soon be singin’ again
But one stone at a time
Let It Go
Some days I’m gone I dream away
Other days I’m fightin for it to return
My lonely friend he don’t know…
That when the sun goes down it’s time
To let it go
Jess she’s huddled by her bed
Her tongue is tied up and she can not sleep
And the bright man on the moon is begging me to show… her… that
When the sun goes down it’s time
To let it go
I do not kiss the evening’s feet
But you avoid it its bound to be painful
And when it comes, tomorrow, you better be ready for the show
Cause when the sun goes down its time
To let it go
Some days I’m gone I dream away
Other days I’m fightin for it to return
My lonely friend he don’t know…
That when the sun goes down it’s time
To let it go
Jess she’s huddled by her bed
Her tongue is tied up and she can not sleep
And the bright man on the moon is begging me to show… her… that
When the sun goes down it’s time
To let it go
I do not kiss the evening’s feet
But you avoid it its bound to be painful
And when it comes, tomorrow, you better be ready for the show
Cause when the sun goes down its time
To let it go
Brain Pollution
Sittin’ at my desk, I’m wondering where the mess is coming from again
It seems like yesterday I cleared my head of things I do not need to say
I’ve got to break it up, I’ve got to shake it up
Gotta take it down easy, not too slow
I’m talking about this brain pollution
Everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
I’m thinking that there's no solution
Cause everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
Fix me up with a quarter pop and tell me what it is I do not feel my friend
I’ve got time to play but when we play I always end up on my heels again
But if I know you, you’ll wait until we're through
Then you’ll take it down easy, but not too slow
I’m talking about this brain pollution
Everybody knows it's there but nobody knows its there
I’m thinking that there's no solution
Cause everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
Working days, eating right, but throwing punches in the night again
Staying clear on guard for days, but I get caught up in the haze again
And when the gig is up, I’ll drink it from the cup
I’ll take it down easy, not too slow
I’m talking about this brain pollution
Everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
I’m thinking that there's no solution
Cause everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
Sittin’ at my desk, I’m wondering where the mess is coming from again
It seems like yesterday I cleared my head of things I do not need to say
I’ve got to break it up, I’ve got to shake it up
Gotta take it down easy, not too slow
I’m talking about this brain pollution
Everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
I’m thinking that there's no solution
Cause everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
Fix me up with a quarter pop and tell me what it is I do not feel my friend
I’ve got time to play but when we play I always end up on my heels again
But if I know you, you’ll wait until we're through
Then you’ll take it down easy, but not too slow
I’m talking about this brain pollution
Everybody knows it's there but nobody knows its there

Staying clear on guard for days, but I get caught up in the haze again
And when the gig is up, I’ll drink it from the cup

I’m talking about this brain pollution
Everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
I’m thinking that there's no solution
Cause everybody knows its there but nobody knows its there
Moonlit Night
Its been said that I spend a lot of time in my head
Where things are going nearly all of the time
And I like to dream of better days though I know the only way
To live is freely day to day, so why don’t we go out and play…
Under the moonlit night…
Sometimes I want to be alone, though I know your light is on
I can see you’re dressing down tonight
When I said I’m off forever, I knew it was now or never
Cause I had to be by myself for a while…
Under the moonlit night…
Its been cold and this sweater's getting old
And I’d like to think I’m getting younger but I’m not
Yes I’m aging like a fine wine, aging in a cellar hole
Hungry like a centerfold, but sweeter than a jelly roll
Ripening to the sun, toasted like a buttered bun
Got to have me some more fun before I die…
Under the moonlit night
To Colleen
I looked out for you, you looked after me
There’s chillin in the air I think I’ll go and plant a tree
And when it grows up to be tall I’ll cut it down and in your name
I’ll burn it all to the ground with out the shame
Let it roll, you say, its okay, let it linger let it keep
But I can’t sleep with you any more
Let it loose, you want a truce, but I’d rather hang up in a noose
Then be caught up in your crazy eyes again
Love was the water, I was once the stream
Your hurricane it hunkered down and blew apart my dreams
So when I say hello how are you, I really could care less,
Its just a way of getting through this shitty mess.
Let it roll, you say, its okay, let it linger let it keep
But I can’t sleep with you any more
Let it loose, you want a truce, but I’d rather hang up in a noose
Then be caught up in your crazy eyes again
I looked out for you, you looked after me
There’s chillin in the air babe, I think I’ll go and plant a tree
And when it grows up to be small I’ll cut it down and in your name
I’ll burn it all to the ground with out the shame
Let it roll…
I looked out for you, you looked after me

Let it roll, you say, its okay, let it linger let it keep
But I can’t sleep with you any more

Nowhere Fast
I saw you on the street
You didn’t know I passed
I could see trouble in your feet
You were getting nowhere fast
Can’t you see that you’re stuck and the same bad lines ain’t gonna make you free
Whatever happened to you and me
So where did you go
After high school
Did you get married
Or are you still playing it cool
I think sometimes that I broke you, but I was living in my own ditch
I got out love, but that ain’t all it is
Your mother was always drinking
While we lay hid thinking
Hoping the window would let us be
So much of me has changed
Been carven out my space
Do you still wish to be forgotten
Or will you see my face
I know somehow that I owe you and I wish it was an easy fix
Tell me I'm wrong and I’ll leave it as it is
I saw you on the street
You didn’t know I passed
I could see trouble in your feet
You were getting nowhere fast
Can’t you see that you’re stuck and the same bad lines ain’t gonna make you free
Whatever happened to you and me
So where did you go
After high school
Did you get married
Or are you still playing it cool
I think sometimes that I broke you, but I was living in my own ditch
I got out love, but that ain’t all it is
Your mother was always drinking
While we lay hid thinking
Hoping the window would let us be
So much of me has changed
Been carven out my space
Do you still wish to be forgotten
Or will you see my face
I know somehow that I owe you and I wish it was an easy fix
Tell me I'm wrong and I’ll leave it as it is
The Station
Break night I’m coming home
She’s tied up on the phone
We might not be alone but we’ll make it anyway
City dollar take us far
Savin up for that getaway car
All I need is my guitar
And a reason to play
Such a long way to the station
But I’ve got time and time is what I need with you
Such a long day on the freeway
But I’ve got time and now I’m gonna play for you
Yeah I’m playin for you
As I'm looking out tonight
I see you starin' at the colored light
I always tell you it will be alright
But your faith keeps running away
Such a long way to the station
But I’ve got time and time is what I need with you
Such a long day on the freeway
But I’ve got time and now I’m gonna play for you
Yeah I’m playin for you
Break night I’m coming home
She’s tied up on the phone
We might not be alone but we’ll make it anyway
City dollar take us far
Savin up for that getaway car
All I need is my guitar
And a reason to play
Such a long way to the station
But I’ve got time and time is what I need with you
Such a long day on the freeway
But I’ve got time and now I’m gonna play for you
Yeah I’m playin for you
As I'm looking out tonight
I see you starin' at the colored light
I always tell you it will be alright
But your faith keeps running away
Such a long way to the station
But I’ve got time and time is what I need with you
Such a long day on the freeway
But I’ve got time and now I’m gonna play for you
Yeah I’m playin for you
Nothing to Show
Midtown there’s no good way to go
Your up your down your too far really
You decide to walk it blows you down
The sidewalk caves and your stuck crawlin'
And you say I...really had to go for it
But now I....got nothing to show for it
Cause it’s a one man parady
With a two part harmony
And you’ll get out allright if you please…
Get off your knees …. baby get off your knees
There’s always a deeper place to go
Follow your hands and you’ll die happy
Is there someone there to talk you down
Swallow your voice and return it laughing
And you say I… really had to go for it
But now I… got nothing to show for it
Cause it’s a one man parady
With a two part harmony
And you’ll get out allright if you please…
Get off your knees …. baby get off your knees
They say buy it now, pay us later
But don’t loose sleep we know your good for it
So you tare it down to build again
Climb the wall but there’s no ceiling
And you say I… really had to go for it
But now I… got nothing to show for it
Cause it’s a one man parady
With a two part harmony
And you’ll get out allright if you please…
Get off your knees …. baby get off your knees
Midtown there’s no good way to go
Your up your down your too far really
You decide to walk it blows you down
The sidewalk caves and your stuck crawlin'
And you say I...really had to go for it
But now I....got nothing to show for it
Cause it’s a one man parady
With a two part harmony
And you’ll get out allright if you please…
Get off your knees …. baby get off your knees
There’s always a deeper place to go
Follow your hands and you’ll die happy
Is there someone there to talk you down

Daydream
Its been a long day at the school yard
I can’t focus anymore
Cause I’ve spent the whole day, in a day dream, in a movie
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her, my friend
Runnin' to the store in the late night
Hopin' to get my nicotine fix
She stands in the streetlight, eating snowflakes, getting frostbite
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her, my friend
The heats on, and I’m on my last leg
Feel like a stranger in my house
Something tells me, that the words out, and then she shouts
Honey if you ever get out you better find me…
Honey if you ever get out you better find me my friend….
Cause I’m not the kind of girl to wait around
Its been a long day at the school yard
I can’t focus anymore
Cause I’ve spent the whole day, in a day dream, in a movie
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her, my friend
Runnin' to the store in the late night
Hopin' to get my nicotine fix
She stands in the streetlight, eating snowflakes, getting frostbite
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her
And if I ever get out I’m going to find her, my friend
The heats on, and I’m on my last leg
Feel like a stranger in my house
Something tells me, that the words out, and then she shouts
Honey if you ever get out you better find me…
Honey if you ever get out you better find me my friend….
Cause I’m not the kind of girl to wait around
