Once the sun Hides it’s eyes Beneath the moon And the starry skies That’s when i rise At night The world is mine When the town Is sound asleep That’s when i laugh That’s when i weep Oh for going deep At night The world is mine I awoke In a land of dreams Stuffed…

God You’re an Idiot Man
Words of hope aren’t likely to float Words of scorn aren’t likely to rise Words of change go up in flames right in front of our eyes Right in front of our eyes Choir songs come out all wrong For who as the savior dies And protest songs half sing along While the other half…
Bad Time to be a Clown
If they were only feeling down I could make a funny sound I could dance a silly dance Oh i’ve dared I can pride fall rebound Just to entertain a crowd But there’s nothing i can do when they are scared If they only had a frown I could turn it right around If they…
Without Your Love
There’s a sky i hide behind my eyelids A locomotive barreling down on my mind There’s ghost rattling chains of things i once did They haven’t scared me in some time Some time I don’t know what i’d do without your love I don’t know what i’d do without your love There’s a rose opening…

Safe to Say
something happens to my words between my brain and my throat. i can see them in there riding in a little paper boat. trying so hard just to stay afloat but it’s rough whether it’s a long letter or just a little note. i got so much i want to say. i don’t want to…
A Little Crazy
it’s true the talking heads in the news want to scare you everything is parsed in “yeah, but it could get worse” to keep us tuning in forever. somewhere a soldier’s sitting in the dead of summer in the ocean on a platform in the eye of a hurricane we came but we just can’t…
