40’s for the lucky
You think you’ve got troubles now
You take a deep breath and now they’ve tripled somehow
So what’s wrong with your face
Did you bury your head and maybe leave it in a better place?
That’s how it goes
This train is screamin’ and it never slows
One blank page after another
So trust me brother we gotta to stick together
40’s for the lucky
Or would you rather be dead?
40s for the lucky
So stop believing everything you’ve read
It doesn’t matter where you start
40s not for the faint of heart
This fuckin’ dick in his 20s
He’s roped two chicks and now he thinks he’s so funny
Come back to me chump with kids in your dump
Driving a minivan to the in-laws condo for the weekend!
That’s how it goes
This train is screamin’ and it never slows
You wanna call me out for being so sunny
But I’ve made more shit decisions than Gate’s got money
40’s for the lucky
Or would you rather be dead?
40s for the lucky
So stop believing everything you’ve read
It doesn’t matter where you start
40s not for the faint of heart
I never had a chance
And neither did you
But that’s ok my brother
When you’re one of the chosen few
When it’s said and done there’s a happy ending
It’s called a blunt and a shot
Of whatever’s in the cabinet
40’s for the lucky
Or would you rather be dead?
40s for the lucky
Start believing everything you’ve read
It doesn’t matter where you start
40s not for the faint of heart
It don’t matter where you are
40s not for the faint of heart

Do It Again

Let’s Do It Again
Ah yeah
Let’s ride
Over the hills in the night
The sky won’t give us its light
But the fire we lit is still bright
Sparks jump off and they fly
To light up the world if they try
Let the flame soar as high as it might
Ignited when when we were friends
We found it where the world ends
I’m sorry I walked away from it’s warmth but now
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
You got a hundred reasons to turn away but then...
Like a shelf too high on the wall
You gotta catch the face when it falls
And if it breaks you got to glue it back together
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Don’t turn away my friend
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
The blade of grass don’t crack, it bends
I got so many reasons to walk away but then...
Don’t turn away
Or is it just a game?
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Turn around and find your friend
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again
We both got a heart to mend
I got a solid hunch
A’ who loves you a bunch
He’s got a hand to hold and a face to punch
Let’s ride
Over the hills in the night
Sky won’t give us its light
Like a shelf too high on the wall
You gotta catch the face when it falls
You gotta catch the vase when it falls

Spirit vs. Ghost

Spirit vs. Ghost
I, I was gone with the tide
But now I’m back
And maybe for good
I, I reached out for her hand
But it seems she never made the land
Who do you love the most
The spirit or the ghost
Where do you wanna be
With the friend who set you free?
Or is it just a memory?
I, I try to be a big man
But a crown of thorns
Is just a head full of horns
You, you try and do what you can
But then you fell and broke the hand
The hand that could’ve helped you save me from myself
Let the tide come in and wash me back out to sea
Who do you love the most
The spirit or the ghost
Where do you wanna be
With the friend who set you free?
Or was it a dream?
Who do you love the most
The spirit or the ghost
Where do you wanna be
With the friend who set you free?
Or is she just a memory?
But don’t say it’s a dream
Why can’t it be what it seems?
Nothing comes for free
No not even me
Everybody’s got their thing to hide
The fear that makes them weak inside
And mine’s my need for you
And do you feel the same?
Or should I float away?
There’s never been a day
That I haven’t missed
The things we used to say
Who do you love the most
The spirit or the ghost
Where do you wanna be
With the friend who set you free?
Or is it a dream?
Who do you love the most
The spirit or the ghost
Where do you wanna be
With the friend who set you free?
Or is she just a memory?
But don’t say it’s a dream
No don’t say it’s a dream

The Dregs
Goodbye sunshine, goodbye rain
She's going back down under the ground
You know we're never gonna see her again
Coming or going, it's all the same
You gotta keep track of every pearl
When you're living a life between two worlds;
let's go
Ahhhhhh
Walk the rocks walk the clouds
Blow the dust off from the shroud
Fight the mob, take to hoof
And then you run with the dogs and wolves
All the dregs come out at night
You won't see them till they bite you
All the dregs come out
And will you be there?
None of these people say a word
Kick the door and take their store
Come back later and take some more
You're the sheep now, and I'm the bird
What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine
Let's keep it separate and we'll be fine;
Let's go
Ahhhhhhh
Float the stone, nothing's round
The water runs up from the ground
A nether world, a thing to do
The end is something new
All the dregs come out at night
You can't see them till they bite you
All the dregs come out
And will you be there?
Goodbye sunshine, goodbye rain
We don’t know when we’re gonna see you again…
When will we see you again?
Goodbye sunshine
Goodbye

Too Soon Moon

She's like a petal blown
From the last flower that you hold
The wind that takes her lifts her higher
It's not the cloud that passes but the night that makes you old
Don't fall down on tracks I left behind you girl
I know you don't know how to tell me
What do you do all day
How do you find your way alone
What do you do all day
Do you dream of things you'll see when you fly away
One day the change will come
No more talk of magic and I'm struck dumb
If I say I believe it would you see my lie
Time's got no spell on you
And there never was a thing at all that I could do
You've got wings
I guess you should use them
You'll find there's not much use in flying
But where else could we go?
What do you do all day
How do you find your way alone
What do you do all day
Do you dream of things you'll see when you fly away
Daphne I see you found your moon
But Daphne you don't have to go so soon
