Hollies

by the field the farmer's daughter drowned

it is you

red green, whites a holly crown

it is you

subtle call and i hear you callin

race down just to fill my eyes, oh

i'm never, never, never, never, never going to love you like you want me to

i'm never, never, never, never, never going to love you like you want me to

when i'm weak i find the holly crown

it is you

snow falls and still i hear the sound

i know its you

subtle cry and i hear her callling

white crown it hit the ground, oh

no i'm never, never, never, never, never going to love you like you want me to

no i'm never, never, never, never, never going to love you like you want me to

Dust, Dust

gonna take my time to sink

gonna take the current i need

i stall in the itty bitty currents at the cold floor of the sea

gonna brace from the waves that blow

gonna wash up with the weeds that crawl from 

the endless beating waves that would break apart the beach

anything you think of

anything you dream of

what could you become

if you return to me

gonna float to the mess in your house

gonna make your children sneeze finally

the curtains spread wide and i float in the light of the beam

gonna kick back and watch em fall

once its seen that this is all and all and 

soon we'll hear another tale to the vanity

anything you think of

anything you dream of

what could you become 

if you return to me

dust, dust, dust, what could you be

Pit

well down here

its all so clear

there's only a little bit of light

to divide us now

theres only a little bit of light

to divide us now

i understand what i must do, im digging a pit going to call it babel

well up there

there's only one tall chair

it sits above us all

to unite us soon

it sits above us all

to unite us soon

understand what i must do, im digging a pit going to call it babel

i understand what i must do, burning both wicks get caught in the middle

understand what i must do, im digging a pit going to call it babel

i understand...

Dreadnaught Drivers Waves

walk straight

got a bee hive buzzin brain

walk straight

weighing the cost to play with rain

filling up

to the line

to the line

walk straight

one leg cocked, curled and lame

walk straight

yes i pray for rain again

you stop

and move

making them waves to break spill and change

and change 

and change

the line

the lline

in a dreadnaught driver's waves

is there a war you say we can keep

is there a war we can play on repeat

could anymore taste so sweet

does any line bend, break or retreat

i don't know where to draw

the line

the line

in a dreadnaught driver's waves

walk

straight...

Gods

carve a block of marble, clay or stone

sly cool mouth below the nose

one eye, two eyes

cheek bones that’s could brace a third world war 

make him eat rust and your prayers forbode

a never ending bust you can call your own

one lie, two lies

watch him look up to the master’s throne

take another drag and tell me that it’s easy

take another drag and tell me that it’s easy

i make the young come flocking to me

watch me now, cause here they come

i want thunder in the walls of your home

i want lightning in the needle of a rose

curb a little fear in a public place

you know he’s here watching your face

one lie, two lies

now i wonder if death is the third

can’t imagine baby’s outgrown the bed

don’t worry now bury your head

take another drag and tell me that it’s easy

Chalk It Up

chalk it up to the top of the mole hill you try, you try

often told its a mount of the old, do they lie, do they lie

chalk it up to the top on your own any time, anytime

chalk it up to the top of the roll and you try,

 you try, 

chalk it up to a rock in a roll and you try, you try

time won't show the way

leave a little pebble and i swear she'd stay

chalk it up to the top of the roll you try, you try

chalk it up to a sisyphean love and you try, you try, you try

chalk it up to the back of the roll, you try, you try

chalk it up to the back of the roll, i swear this time it'll cross the line

chalk it up to the back of the mole hill you try, yes you try you try

chalk it up to the back of the roll you try, you try, you try

you try

time won't show you the way

leave and little pebble and she'd stay

tell her you need her

tell her you need her

Pleasure

got some time to wonder

if your mind will go that far

quick love ruby luster

dogged dip shit lust and heart

well the lonely rings are swirling round

tying my throat to every sound

wrapping my knees to the boot heel ground

circle joy of pain, the riddles found

i get a pleasure when you’re around

i get a pleasure when you’re around

got a planet’s time to dive in

that ain’t the prize i ain’t playing for

it’s the shy, crying thunder

fear and craze for a no at the bar

well the lonely rings are circling round

circling my eyes in a sleepless drought

looping that drain where the lovefool drowns

making joy of pain the only god in town

i get a pleasure when your around

i get a pleasure when your around

joy of pain begs to resound

City of Dreadful Night

from wandering through many solemn scene

of opium visions and a heart serene

and an intellect miraculously bright

i wake from the daydreams to this real night

from prayer and fasting in a lonely cell

which brought an ecstasy ineffable

love and adoration and delight

i wake from the daydreams to this real night

from making hundreds roar and laugh with glee

by my transcendent feats of mimicry

a humor wanton as an elvish sprite

i wake from the daydreams to this real night

endlessly night

from drinking fiery poison out in a den

crowded with the tawdry girls and squalid men

they horse and laugh and curse, they brawl and fight

i wake from the daydreams to this real night

from picturing with all beauty and all grace

first eden and the parents of our own race

luminous rapture unto all men's sight

i wake from the daydreams to this real night

endlessly night

thus challenged by that warder sad and stern

each one responded with his countersign

they entered the cathedral and in turn

i entered also having given mine

lingered there until, i heard no more

and marked the closing of the massive door

Tommy

tommy’s feeling down again

i swear he needs a friend

tommy’s feeling down again

well he really needs a friend

like an actor starts a band

it’s a start smart guy

share your tale you ran

chase it around surprised
