Walk Away 04:25
lyrics
Walk Away Spinning in circles Dirty tongue in her mouth Faces surround Still feeling winter lonely Ice crystals Wild feathers head south Capture sweet dream If, if only Pack muddy boots Silent voices betray Turn and just Walk away Cannot win Refuse to play Driven to connect Swiftly move to stray Touch that held Bleeds pink to gray Dimming star owl nights Into frozen days You go, I’ll stay Turn around and walk away Turn and just walk away Hate in young hands Shoelace untied Thought disconnect New story, bitter warning Hazy scheme mission Generations defied Falcon wings Futile uproaring Peasant tint vow Lying statues of clay Avoid what truth means Worlds helplessly soaring Unverified source Nightmares that pay Steal fractured wings And fly away Cannot win Refuse to play Driven to connect Swiftly move to stray Touch that held Bleeds pink to gray Dimming star owl nights Into frozen days You go, I’ll stay Turn around and walk away Turn and just walk away Spinning in circles Forcing last hand Faces surround In endless winter lonely Ice crystals Forever to sand Capture sweet dream If, if only Put on worn boots Voices that stay Memories….memories Pack muddy worn boots Voices, winter gray Just drift away Hey, turn around, could you come back here please? Never win Refuse to play Driven to connect Swiftly move to stray Touch that held Pink to gray Dimming star owl nights Into frozen days You go, I’ll stay Turn around and walk away Turn and just walk away Fate in youth hands Shoelace untied Thought disconnect New story, same warning Brazen scheme vision Generation implied Falcon wings Distantly soaring Peasant tint vow Statues of clay Entangled means Worlds frantically adoring Verified source Lovers that stay Put on worn boots And Walk Away

Heavy Like A Devil 04:22
lyrics
Heavy like a devil Spitting glue onto my shoe Color coded pavement Twisting tie-died since the 60’s Never got my cue Enemy ship each turn are sinking Take your move stop overthinking Next round sure to win Patience wearing thin Four in the morning Misused avenue Black news spinning circles Russia’s on the border With all players set to lose Gambling with no payday Partners bid in replay Maximize your score This game isn’t any fun anymore. Four in the morning Misused avenue Black news spinning circles Russia’s on the border With all players set to lose Not sure if I am able With Park Place off the table Boardwalk in my back pocket Ambiguous strategy, don’t knock it Heavy like a devil Spitting glue onto my shoe Color coded pavement Twisting tie-died since the 60’s Never got my cue Words twisted round like Scrabble In plastic cars we’ll travel Right foot won’t reach green circle Killer’s wearing purple Heavy like a devil Spitting glue onto my shoe Color coded pavement Twisting tie-died since the 60’s Never got my cue Heavy like a devil Spitting glue onto my shoe Color coded pavement Twisting tie-died since the 60’s Never got my cue

Tired and Tangled and Twisted 04:44
lyrics
Tired and Tangled and Twisted Breaking for slack of concentrated air space Faking attack, get off my suitcase Wandering, rambling, the shambles Not worth bothering Reservations expired I’m so tired Tired and tangled and twisted Just when you thought you had missed it Luck comes around Fate takes you down Roughed up with just enough glory No winning end to this story In younger days Just might get your way Greeding to life of incapacitating confusion Sharpening knives, calling your mom Misting, resisting the list With your name at the bottom Loosing from wired God I’m so tired Tired and tangled and twisted Just when you thought you had missed it Luck comes around Fate takes you down Roughed up with just enough glory No winning end to this story In younger days Just might get your way Gravity sinks at the notion Perpetual anger in motion When neither side wins Drink the bottle and spin Breaking for lack of airspace Final attack Pack my suitcase Reservations expired Loosing from wired God I’m so tired Tired and tangled and twisted Just when you thought you had missed it Luck comes around Fate takes you down Roughed up with just enough glory No winning end to this story In younger days Just might get your way Gravity sinks at the notion Perpetual anger in motion When neither side wins Drink the bottle and spin

Thirsty 03:14
lyrics
Thirsty Water makes me thirsty But I don’t know why Feelin like I’m flyin When I look into your eyes Water makes me thirsty Whiskey makes me dry Mama says to walk away Daddy says to cry Heart beat in a hurry When I look into your eyes Feelin midnight frisky With your touch upon my thigh Your skin makes me hungry Summer sweetness justified Moonshine multiplyin When I look up in the sky Daddy says to walk away Mama starts to cry Gettin Sunday flirty With night's ending deep implied Water makes me thirsty But I don’t know why Feelin like I’m flyin When I look into your eyes Slow dancing might be dirty Southern mud surely stains your shoe Handsome backside in a hurry Justifies my weekend blues Met you in a corner Darkness in your eye Mistake lust drunk crazy But I had to make you mine Whisper tells me you won't stay Love can’t be denied Hearts a little shaky As I let you cross my line Water makes me thirsty Whiskey makes me dry Feelin like Im flyin When I look into your eyes Water makes me thirsty Whiskey makes me dry Think I better walk away Or I just might end up cryin Water makes me thirsty Oooo, I just can’t lie Water makes me thirsty Whiskey makes me dry Feelin midnight frisky With your touch upon my thigh Water makes me thirsty But I don't know why Water makes me thirsty Oooh I cannot lie Water makes me thirsty I don’t know why So thirsty

Your Broken Ground 02:54
lyrics
Your Broken Ground Favorite minutes to dance Heartbreak songs lean into unfamiliar chance Romance that aged into the finest wine Your hands holding my face Sacred moments in time You became mine; you were mine. As our lives intertwine Life breezes on Laughing, crying, touching Love redefined Heartbeats lost, some shattered dreams Swept and tossed along the way But you promised, promised you’d stay. Stories we built crash all around To these hours forever bound Daisies drift from my touch Weary legs barely standing On your broken ground Last breathing your space Whisper your name Never hear your voice sound Breathlessly landing On your broken ground.

Crazy Little Monster Taniwha Slinking round a corner Savoring the edge Padded footsteps slipping slowly Follow you onto the ledge Scratches down my fingers Whispers hold me back Leave you at the corner But I think you might attack Demons in your black eyes Like a starless night Could chill for some perspective But you’re wound up pretty tight Crazy little monster Intent to steal my soul Weaving through our darkness Then swallowing us whole You’re young and you’re mean Most assured to roam Vicious claws in my leg Think I’ll just take you home Crazy Little Monster, I think I’ll name you Taniwha Rumor swears a mystic demon Seen beyond Victoria Lake Those full of reckless and abandon Make a perilous mistake Seaweed in their blank eyes Terror in their stare Wearied bodies come back mostly Drifting barren through nightmare When the moon is waning crescent And dew shimmers in gray cold Young and lustful in their season Risk a story best untold Fever on bare pale skin Silent in despair Vigilantes do their hunting But they never find him there When the wolves howl at night Don’t you leave on your own Handsome stranger by your side Better than all alone Crazy little monsters, Taniwha Gazing in a mirror Reflections cross the edge Risky promise prowling slowly Follow him onto the ledge Trembling down scratched fingers Whispers hide sharp fear Follow darkness around a corner Just to feel a body near Demons in your black eyes Like this starless night Could chill for some perspective Think I’ll wait til morning’s light Scary evil monsters Intent to steal some souls Careless in our darkness Just don’t walk out there alone When the wolves howl at night It’s so tempting to roam Vicious claws scratch my heart Think I’ll just take you home Most assured to roam Think I’ll just take you home When the wolves howl at night It’s so tempting to roam Vicious claws scratch my heart Think I’ll just take you home Like a dark starless night Think I’ll wait for sunlight Whispers holding me back Mirrors fading to black Monsters stealing our soul Terror swallows us whole Lone wolves howling til dawn Hunger beckons you on Most assured to roam Think I’ll just take you home
