Bayou Blues 03:13
lyrics
I wandered and worried and rattled through this Bayou Blues As I cross through the Swamp Stare in Gators eyes Reminds me of You What else could a lonely gal do? Still, I miss you Full Moon shining brightly Sweet sweat dripping softly Like dew Strong hands hesitate for flames kiss so long overdue Passion will be renewed in the chase to ensue Another will squander his soul to discover blind truth In shoeless misdirection Love's meaning In fleeting dispute Intent misconstrued I'll find someone new I wandered and worried and rattled through this Bayou Blues As I cross through the Swamp Stare in Gators eyes Reminds me of You

Let Me Drown 03:14
lyrics
In a need to be free of changes Dancing on a ghost Disappoint to be me with angers That appear to be most Delicious and anxious and just Wash Away So afraid of the misplaced dangers What does God say/ No children play Take me up that dirt so steep Lay me by a shallow ledge Can't swallow one more broken start Not taste another black day edge So take me down Before a dust brushed lover Laid beside a frozen tomb Left behind a suspicious another Spoken too soon With a dangle of indecision Slip a knife blade between dirty sheets Recounting past memory position Buried sweet So take me to the water deep Where memories resound Can't hear a smothered bitter start Not swallow one more silent sound So take me to the waters edge and lay me in the sand Can't lose another shattered heart Not hold one more hollow hand So take me down In a shadow of violence and hatred Soldiered among shattered dreams With a promise eternal and sacred In between If righteous and lightness in darkness Spills fragile into scattered seams With the means to be well fed and battered Then polished clean So take me to my earthy floor Broken bones scattered all around Won't steal another devil's dream Not dance another empty sound So take me to the waters edge Lay me in the sand Can't lose my broken shattered heart Not hold one more hollow hand So take me down And let me drown

Locked In Impossible Rooms 04:37
lyrics
Bright Skies fade into dark Locked in impossible rooms Standing Still Falling apart Divided echoes Scrape tears off worn shoes Bright skies fade into dark Shallow faces hide misjointed fear Smeared on yesterday dreams Fallen moments Drift day into year Uncolored pictures Can't compose what hearts mean Dark skies fall through my heart And time, time slows to nothing Scandalous changes How could we know Hearts keep empty breaking Hope peers past strangers In this vacant sold out show Dark skies fall through my heart Trapped in yesterday dreams Landing still in a hollowed out start Dark skies fall

Deep Canyon 02:43
lyrics
No dramatic plan Unseen reason You were you Just changing seasons Kisses cooled No passion pleasing We kept dancing Yet stopped believing Deep divide Grand canyon When we step too close Will our bones keep standing Frantic ride Drifting with abandon Have we lost our way through this deep canyon Deep divide Grand canyon When we step too close Will our bones keep standing Frantic ride Drifting with abandon Have we lost our way through this deep canyon This deep canyon

Steps Like Dancing 05:50
lyrics
Steps Like Dancing I dreamt upon the spirit Blood of blood Hawks bereaved Legs lie hungry I will go for you Steps Like Dancing minding stones Painting Souls in prison bones Freedom kiss the storyteller Weary of walls Gracious God Nature’s distance Echoing stairs Where I can touch you Steps like Dancing Minding stones Painting souls In prison bones Blood of my blood In visions of the Hawk Entrace my circle I dreamt upon the spirit Freedom Kiss the Storyteller Steps like Dancing Minding Stones Painting Souls in Prison bones Sainted Hunter to unknown Take this Storyteller home

You Must Be Jokin 04:51
lyrics
Oh you've got to be kinning Yah, no Feet dangle in the water Blank stars about to burn out Justify a mother's daughter Too tired to look in your mouth Body back up for a moment Your hearts about to be broken Ohhh, you must be jokin Wicked goddess of the spotlight Deaf voice approaching sincere Switch movement like a jackknife Cheap shoes approaching too near Heart about to be broken You must be jokin Disappear romantic pawings Dreams stripped from under your hand Resuscitating confusion Aphrodite lust has been banned So many words unspoken You must be jokin

Greatness in Me 01:27
lyrics
No daisies blooming No knock on my door Drifting in circles Too bold to ignore Punching at memories That I couldn't see How did you believe In the Greatness in me Hiding through sorrow where lonely sinks in Nearing an ending I forgot to begin A scattered glimpse of long lost memory To dare believe In the greatness in me. (Unsung) All it takes is one To hold out a hand If you've fallen to the floor I'll help you stand Together to believe in the greatness in WE
