Never Grow So Old
02:50

i was a little boy
bowl cut, eyes shut
i had my little toys
and then a ray cut through
my little eyelid
truth told so cold
now i gotta cry it
try to get a hold of you
i was a blind man
happy as can be
then i met a kind man
who taught me how to see things
i never knew before
'cause no one ever showed
and now i'm mad for more
burnin' down the road
i was an old soul
played the game so tame
and you know it takes its toll
to hang your life so lame
now i'm a young gun
you never do what youre told
'cause living's just to run
and never grow so old

gotta get out of this world
got that itch just to move
gotta get out of this world
feel like i got somethin to prove
and all the time that you're stickin around
that's just time wasting away
and all the time that you're stickin around
that's just time i can't repay
gotta get out of this world
just wanna dig a hole and hide
gotta get out of this world
yeah maybe take a long, long ride...
and all the time that you're stickin around
that's just time i'm stuck in your eyes
and all the time that you're stickin around
that's just a plain sight cry
gotta get out of this world
find some other way to be
gotta get out of this world
outside all this calamity
and all the time that you're stickin around
well, you've gotta be on your way to something more
and all the time that you're stickin around
you know i've got one foot out the door

It's Only Natural

it's only natural
you should want to run
you could only hold me like that
circle 'round the sun
it's only natural
you should want to hide
you could only hold me with those
rules you could not abide

Don't Bother Me None
04:02
|
|||
you can chase any man that ya want
i'll sit back however you wanna taunt
it don't bother me none
if you wanna have some fun
you can dress yourself up just like a doll
you make yourself up to appall
it don't bother me at all
if you wanna take that fall
you can talk til your words ain't worth nothin
you can blow smoke til there ain't nothin puffin'
it don't bother me one bit
if you wanna stir some shit
you can look at it any way you please
you can treat it just like a disease
it don't bother me no way
honey i'm glad to keep away
and you can run back as fast as you can run
and play your game just like you always done
but you just don't bother me no more
nothin' like you did before

Road to Reconcile
03:43
|
|||
i keep you runnin baby runnin all through the night
i keep you runnin til the dull gray morning light
you tell me nothings wrong--baby nothing's wrong?
but i ain't seen your face in so very long
oh it's a road of many miles
oh the road to reconcile
one small step at a time...
you take yours and maybe i'll take mine
don't let it get you baby don't you let it weigh on your mind
there's something hangin 'round here we don't wanna find
the sky's gray and the clouds are filled with rain
if it don't come down soon i'm gonna go insane!!
oh it's a road of many miles
oh the road to reconcile
one small step at a time
you take yours and maybe i'll take mine
oh baby you KNOW i ain't asking for much
all i want is the warm feel of your sweet touch
ow no longer longer longer can i wait
'cause you know i believe that it ain't too late
oh it's a road of many miles
oh the road to reconcile
one small step at a time
you take yours and maybe i'll take mine

All Not to See
03:20
|
|||
something very sad's been going around
it's hard to understand what gets you down
and try to sing and fail to make a sound
in the silence
most of the time i keep a sound perspective
something comes to me, i try not to reject it
but there's a soft spot and you can't help but protect it
when the silence gets too loud
a crowd of people gets wrapped up in its own life
a lucky man goes home happy to his wife
a lonely eye catches itself in the knife
all not to see
i met a man nobody could soothe
he's always out of time, he's always got to move
but he can't help feeling he's got something to prove
so he fights on...
i left my baby and she stormed of in a rage
but when you get to feeling you deserve a wage
for all the time spent looking out your cage
well brother you've got to move

Your Game Is Done
03:54
|
|||
outlaw come over here
i hear you're tough as nails
outlaw, come and sit right here
man why you lookin so pale
i've see you running through
daguerreotypes
i've seen you hiding behind
that headline hype
some men just think they can't be beat
raising the dead out of the street
to see you coming around here
make me think you need to learn some fear
heard word you robbed the banks
of money they all stole
hear you got a band of beasts
with hearts as black as coal
outlaw, you're running a game
on some weak imaginations
people hear a story and they don't
consider the machinations
some men just think they can't be beat
raising the dead out of the street
to see you coming around here
make me think you need to learn some fear
won't bust you in here
'cause this place don't need a brawl
but next you step outside your game is done my friend
once and for all

Demolition Game
04:26
|
|||
well i didn't know what to do
so i struck a match and lit the fuse
sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
and now your mind lies dumbstruck, lame
as the trigger's kick sets sound aflame
and you're either dead or dying of shame
and that's the demolition game
you know it would've blown up on its own
starts with a bang, ends with a moan
oh when you're loving on a loan
but all in all it ain't much risk
if you expect it just to turn to piss
and that ain't much to trade for bliss

All Broke Up Blues
03:15
|
|||
up up your eyelids open wide
down down all you wanna do is hide
well now
you can do what you said you would
you can do what you know is good
and you can break it like you should
or you can keep playing charades
you can deny it til it fades
you can keep breathing lies
or you can speak the words that are in your eyes
round round, your head an axis of sound
scream scream to wake yourself from the dream
alright
i know it must seem so hard
to break down, let down your guard
to lay down all of your cards
hey hey but what else are you gonna do?
gets worse the longer that it brews
eventually you've got choose:
do you wanna move or do you need these blues?
run run, you cannot hide in the sun
go go, you know that sun melts the snow
yeah
it was a longer road than you thought
a bargain you should not have bought
a battle you should not have fought
hey hey but you were lonely and blue
won't nobody blame you
for trying to find something true
it was a lie and there was nothing you could do

One Night at a Time
04:40
|
|||
you don't know nothin of the love that i've got for you
one night at a time i've tried to kill it off for you
only to see it rise up from the ash
just lookin for another crash
and it's a hard spiral of a path
trying to stay grounded and rise above
and it's a long way home from the aftermath
of the only thing that you ever loved
you don't know nothin of the love that i've got for you
or all the starving dreams that have had to rot for you
and i see 'em dying but there's nothing i can do
helpless, helpless for the love of you
and it's a long life thinking where you could've gone
if you could stand living loveless and cold
and it's hard knowing that you're just your passion's pawn
guided by a feeling you can never hold
