In The Summers

I started working before I was thirteen; used to busk on the docks, down on Gimli Beach
Made enough every single day, to go to G & C, maybe rent a movie
This was summer every night and day, every day and night, it was a dream to me
I started working before I was thirteen; in a little prowler camper by the private beach
When I grow up I'll scream and yell
I strike and I strum this guitar
I'll play and I'll play until I die
That's a promise I made, since the day you were gone, oh yeah
A little older now, but not too wise, I keep strumming this guitar for some lonely eyes
Invite some friends down to moonlight bay, have a couple of brews, go swim in the sea
Oh, I never will forget those nights, how we lived every day, it was a dream to me
A little older now, but not too wise, down in Gimli south beach, on the private side
When I grow up I'll scream and yell
I strike and I strum this guitar
I'll play and I'll play until I die
That's a promise I made, since the day you were gone, oh yeah
I started working before I was thirteen; used to busk on the docks, down on Gimli Beach
A little older now, but not too wise, I keep strumming this guitar for some lonely eyes
I started working before I was thirteen; used to busk on the docks, down on Gimli Beach
A little older now, but not too wise, I keep strumming this guitar for some lonely eyes
I started working before I was thirteen; used to busk on the docks, down on Gimli Beach
A little older now, but not too wise, I keep strumming this guitar for some lonely eyes
I started working before I was thirteen; used to busk on the docks, down on Gimli Beach
A little older now, but not too wise, I keep strumming this guitar for some lonely eyes

Bad Memories Float Away
02:44

|
Think back to the river, think back to the day
When you tossed bad memories and watched them float away
Think back to the moment, everything was okay
Till your mind was empty, you just watched them, you watched them float away
I remember as a young boy, young boy, I remember in a dream
I was fishing after midnight, while you gut and cleaned
I remember as a young boy, young boy, still remember everything
All the things that you taught me, until my memory fades, till my memory fades
Ooooo, till my memory fades
Ooooo, till my memory fades
Till my memory fades, till my memory fades, till my memory fades
Think back to the river, think back to the day
When you tossed bad memories and watched them float away
Think back to the moment, everything was okay
Till your mind was empty, you just watched them, you watched them float away
Think back to the river, think back to the day
When you tossed bad memories and watched them float away
Think back to the moment, everything was okay
Till your mind was empty, you just watched them, you watched them float away

Wonderful Day
05:32

Hey, I've been ok, since you've been away, I've been ok
Alone, alone I stay, my greatest fear, it's to the end of days
One day, I'll meet you, you'll break my heart, leave me into
Apart, my friends all know, the only cure, is to drink at home, and they tell me
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Just keep tellin' me tellin' me that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Keep saying and believing in that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
I got my head in the skies I'm singing
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Just keep tellin' me tellin' me that
Today, today I pray, I pray for pain, I've been ok
Evening, I watch the rain, as I walk, along the grey
I sit here, I think all day, one million thoughts, run through my brain
Darkness, it leaves my soul, thanks to my friends, I tell them Skal, so they tell me
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Just keep tellin' me tellin' me that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Keep saying and believing in that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
I got my head in the skies I'm singing
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Just keep tellin' me tellin' me that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Just keep tellin' me tellin' me that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Keep saying and believing in that
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
I got my head in the skies I'm singing
Hey Yeah, it's a wonderful day yeah
Just keep tellin' me tellin' me that

Just Feel
04:07
|

|
There was a place that filled a void
Where you could dance and sing in the mid of night
Where they felt the music and knew every word that you sang
I imagine a floor filled with 50,000 strong
Nothing else like this nothing felt wrong
Oh, how I miss these times, how I miss this place
When the crown breaks down and there's no one around
I want to be next with you
When the crown breaks down and they clear these grounds
I want to stand here with you
Oh when the city lights go dim at night, I want you right here in my arms
When the stage tears down and the lights go out I want to feel, just feel
So much time has past since I picked up this old piece of wood
I threw on some string, maybe I'll sing you a tune
But I miss the stage and I miss those lights
And the words you sang, they burn deep inside
Everything about it always felt so right
When the crown breaks down and there's no one around
I want to be next with you
When the crown breaks down and they clear these grounds
I want to stand here with you
Oh when the city lights go dim at night, I want you right here in my arms
When the stage tears down and the lights go out I want to feel
I want to feel, oh I wanna feel, oh just feel
When the crown breaks down and there's no one around
I want to be next with you
When the crown breaks down and they clear these grounds
I want to stand here with you
Oh when the city lights go dim at night, I want you right here in my arms
When the stage tears down and the lights go out I want to feel, oh
When the crown breaks down
And there's no one around I want to be next with you
When the crown breaks down and they clear these grounds
I want to stand here with you
Oh when the city lights go dim at night, I want you right here in my arms
When the stage tears down and the lights go out I want to feel
I want to feel, oh just feel

Wolves at the Door
03:03
|
|||
|
Where you going to hide when wolves knock on your door
And where you going to find the money they adore
It's clear and plain to see that I am the demon that is standing out your door
So pay up your debts, you'll see I'll come around no more
You don't have the meat they crave your flesh will have to do
They'll take everything, but your life, that's just what they'll do
They don't care about a single cent you have they'll just take everything from you
So where will you hide when wolves knock on your door
Cage your windows and board up all your doors
Stop the demon with the hammer you adore
Don't give up you'll see that you can beat the demons that try and break down your doors
So where will you hide when wolves knock on your door

Fishing on the river

Pulled up from the river bed yeah
I think you need some shelter
I think you need some food and rest yeah
I think you need some water
So I tossed her back into the Red yeah
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion
Later on the drive home
There's something hanging from the bridge yeah
I think it was her sweater
Red shining mirror of the Red yeah
I think you need some shelter
I think you need some food and rest now
I think you need some water
So I tossed her back into the Red yeah
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion
Carry on, Carrion

The Devil Taught Me
02:39
|
|||
|
I've been so many places, I don't even really care
I've been so left and right, up and down, and in the air
I've been to mountains and the valleys, watched the water pass
I tried to keep up but I really don't mind being last
Come on and school me
Just try and school me
You can't teach me
I know everything
I saw a camel, so I went and jumped up on its back
It took me to the dessert, through a sandstorm, to a trap
I drank some water just to find out it was a mirage
My lungs are filled with sand, but still I keep on walking strong
Come on and school me
Just try and school me
You can't teach me
I know everything
I'll go and sink or swim in the ocean, oh so blue
I'll swim up onto shore, so excited to see you
You little sexy devil, snap your tail make it crack
And take me back to hell and teach me how to really sweat
Come on and school me
Just try and school me
You can't teach me
I know everything

People's Choice
02:56
|
|||
|
I wish I could be, some place far away, where the people are plain and true
Where I could walk with, freedom and stride, without sarcastic salutes
You don't know me, you don't know me, you don't know me
I don't owe you a single thing, you don't own me, I'm so lonely
I wish I could be, a happy man, just knowing that I was free
Far from the stage, and the city lights, away from the cliquey scenes
You don't know me, you don't know me, you don't know me
I don't owe you a single thing, you don't own me, I'm so lonely
I wish I could fix, the tormented man, the one behind lock and key
Don't want to be, the people's choice, why can't they just let me be
You really don't know me, you don't know me, you don't know me
I don't owe you a single thing, you don't own me, I'm so lonely
You really don't know me, you don't know me, you don't know me
I don't owe you a single thing, you don't own me, I'm so lonely
I wish I could be, a happy man, just knowing that I was free

I'm up all night counting, I can't go to sleep
This darkness, it eats me, aware of my being
How we're all built, I am super aware
That we're all just dying and that's what makes me scared
And I can't get this out of my mind
I can't get this out of my mind
I'll lay awake all night then die
But, I can't get this out of my mind
I spend all day pacing, I hate all this light
It's all so confusing, I'm awake I'm alive
But how could this be, I surely died in my sleep
Is this heaven or hell or am I just stuck in a dream
And I can't get this out of my mind
I can't get this out of my mind
I'll lay awake all night then die
But, I can't get this out of my mind
I can't get this out of my mind
I can't get this out of my mind
I'll lay awake all night then die
But, I can't get this out of my mind
I'm up all night counting, I can't go to sleep
This darkness, it eats me, aware of my being
But how could this be, I surely died in my sleep

I've Been Here Before
04:41
|
|||
|
I don't know where I'm going
I've been here before
So dark and so lonely
The places I go
But I, I'm falling
Back and forth through and through
Sometimes, I wonder
How I ended up with you
You, really brighten up my hue
I don't know how to get there
I've been here before
Mornings come too early
Darkest days gone
But I, I'm falling
Back and forth through and through
Sometimes, I wonder
How I ended up with you
You, really brighten up my hue
But I, I'm falling
Back and forth through and through
Sometimes, I wonder
How I ended up with you
I, I'm falling
Back and forth through and through
Sometimes, I wonder
How I ended up with you
You, really brighten up my hue

Are You Singing Grace
03:35
|
|||
|
Where have you been these days, I hardly see your face
Are you on the other side, are you singing grace
Are you singing grace, are you singing grace
And if I find that place, you know I'd stay all day
And if they don't let me in, you know I'd find another way
Why did you go so far, I miss what you say
I hope you're happy now, and singing everyday
Singing everyday, are you singing grace
And if I find that place, you know I'd stay all day
And if they don't let me in, you know I'd find another way
And if I find that place, you know I'd stay all day
And if they don't let me in, you know I'd find another way
If I find that place, I'd stay all day
If they don't let me in, I'll find another way, I'll find another way
