Sally Moore

Unordinary. Was easily led
Went down to the ocean, skin turning red
She was the queen of the aerial
Her reign it was over beyond control
She came watered and fed
I cleared a room for her to lay her head
Her name was Sally Moore
She was the angel of the end I'm sure
I tried the water, the water was clean
I stood back and watch her as she jumped right in
I was the king of the cautionary tale
My reign it was over, beyond the pale
She came watered and fed
I cleared a room for her to lay her head
Her name was Sally Moore
She was the angel of the end I'm sure
As we were "sittin on the dock of the bay"
She said she loved Otis I asked her to stay
She was queen of the aerial
Her reign it was over, beyond control
She came watered and fed
I cleared a room for her to lay her head
Her name was Sally Moore
She was the angel of the end I'm sure

Familiar Tone
04:30

|

Met the founder and the founders own
I was destined to the great unknown
Saw the rising of the tide
Left a marker with you by my side
Tried to live with your fallacy
Lost affection for the human need
Carved your name in the softest stone
Alabaster now I'm all alone
Make way here I am
In the old familiar tone
I'll be home
When I am home
Climbed a redwood forest tree
Made a shelter all for you to see
Left a sonnet there in the bark
Built a fire for the coming dark
Make way here I am
In the old familiar tone
I'll be home
When I am home

Six For Five
03:38

I came here for the ever and the more
And all that's in between.
God damn the fool I am, I fell apart again.
And in these times to grin and bear
Is all that I can do.
How can I give you all that I have
When all I have is you?
Where's the money for the rent?
I got it all spent.
In the end they
Owe
There was a man who'd eat his hand
As a forfeit for saying her name
Time passed and a photograph
was all that had remained
He enjoyed a social drink
And a lonesome one now and then
It used to be 6 for 5 but now it's
5 for 10
Where's the money for the rent?
I got it all spent.
In the end they
Owe

The Wreck I Am
02:29
|
|

Maybe I'm proud of the mess that I'm
Oh man I cannot swim
Save me for those rainy days
And I will all your fears allay
Baby I'm the man who called you home
I'm the wreck I am
Baby I'm the man who called you home
I'm the wreck I am
The C I A was Kennedy's fault?
Just about the time that I gave up hope
Saying it was a muddle I made
Oh man I feel I paid
Baby I'm the man who called you home
I'm the wreck I am
Baby I'm the man who called you home
I'm the wreck I am

Lullaby For The Lost
03:06
|
|
||
Lay down un feelings
And let the bell ring
Search for the greatness
In everything
Open your lungs
And breath the world in
Watch as the damaged ones
Rest their wings
Here comes the everyday
The only song I ever did play
Amen that I can't be saved
Due in part to the wrecking I've raised
Some are not meant
To have stayed for the course
Some are direction
While others are lost
Some are bewildered
And painfully blunt
Oh how I wished
That I wasn't one
Here comes the everyday
The only song I ever did play
Amen that I can't be saved
Due in part to the wrecking I've raised
Here comes the everyday
The only song I ever did play
Amen that I can't be saved
Due in part to the wrecking I've raised
Here comes the everyday
The only song I ever did play
Amen that I can't be saved
Due in part to the wrecking I've raised

Country Ending
02:37

The sun to the great white moon
Sun to the great white all too soon
Paid for and more, don't you know
You were a girl I made
You were a girl I rest my case
Paid for and more don't you know
Oh oh oh I let you go
Found a roof and called it home
You found a reason to live alone
Paid for and more, don't you know
We talked about the apple cart
We were for a hiding from the start
Paid for and more, don't you know
Oh oh oh I let you go

Golden Days
03:45
|
|
||
The way was easy
There wasn't far to roam
But I was lazy
Boy you should have know
Man of misery
as I'm bound to be
I spend my whole time
bitterly
Golden days and saccharine
Stay with me till the very end boy
Golden days and saccharine
Stay with me till the very end boy
Fear & failure
A fortune laid in stone
I tried my whole life
Boy I wish I'd known
I'm out of patience
When all is said and done
I stay to face the day
Boy I wish I'd run
Golden days and saccharine
Stay with me till the very end boy
Golden days and saccharine
Stay with me till the very end boy

Evergreen
03:24

He came followed by pain
Is all I ever knew
I was all for the cause
Be it old, be it new
He led and oh did he lead
down the Colosseum
his bones they lay in the homes
For one and all just to see 'em
Chorus:
All I need
Evergreen
For the rest of my day
Then I feel that I'm made
He led and oh did he lead
Down the colosseum
His bones they lay in the homes
for one and all just to see 'em
He bled and oh did he bleed
Down the mausoleum
His blood was a handful of dust
And I'll kill a man just to see him
All I need
evergreen
For the rest of my day
Then I feel that I'm made

Head To The Hills
05:53
|
|
||
Send for the gods
My will has broken
Wash my hands and more
Nothing is read
And nothing is spoken
Oh my character is law
You came to believe
In mercy and me
The change of my heart
And the sea.
Head to the hills
Your time is over
Feed that wolf
At my door
Nothing is left and
Nothing is taken
Now my character is law
You believed in the sound and the feel
I came for the record
Post the pardon and bending of will
I came for the record
