Lost eyes admire the embodied dream The winds, they whispered the quiet in my ears So it goes, so it goes down the drain Off it rolls, the sweat that I can’t contain If you could stumble my way Drop the smoke screen let’s make it you and me Time moves and slips into the grey The evening it steals the light from your face I’m dancing down this old road that’s calling me home You can swim tonight if you like but you can’t fight the flow If you could stumble my way Drop the smoke screen let’s make it you and me If you could stumble my way Conquering those steep grades Tying tongues all the same Drop the smoke screen let’s make it you and me

Pasadena 04:20
Meet me on the ground We’ll fall out again And just like the frogs that rain down We’ll cover the earth when we land When you started livin’ High on the hill You learned to fake it and make it all work Now you’re weary from grinning I heard So lose me in the trees of Pasadena Oh I’ll haunt the forests till you return So lose me in the trees I want to see ya When the oceans rise we’ll dive in headfirst Calling it even now But the details we’re leavin' out A hole full of holes leave the best parts untold Just the lines but you don’t color in When you moved your livin’ High up in the mountain You made a killin’ preaching those words Looking down on my neck of the woods So lose me in the trees of Pasadena Oh I’ll haunt the forests till you return So lose me in the trees I want to see ya When the oceans rise we’ll dive in head first

Creole Belle 04:48
My creole belle I love her well My darling baby my creole belle When the stars all shine I’ll call her mine My darling baby my creole belle My creole belle I love her well I love her more than anyone can tell Since you drifted down to Vacherie These tears of mine are all I see You left some love but I used it up If you come on home I’ll be singin' hallelujah When she’s on my mind I’m feelin' fine My darling baby my creole belle Gonna put down roots like we’re supposed to do My darling baby my creole belle

On the day I roamed I was a soggy beast From the river I tracked mud into your house You just offered me a meal I didn’t know it Would be my last Had some bright ideas in a murky state Of mind while we just shared another cigarette Burned a face into our shoulders just to prove a point What we’ve seen ain’t nobody else gonna see Where we’ve been ain’t nobody else gonna be Will I meet a ferocious animal if I darken your door? Came home to roost like it always does When you’re out whistling past the graveyard Oh honey you don’t seem to notice that you’re wakin’ the dead You can shoot me down, that’s fine by me But forgiveness ain’t running in the family Those souls been beating at my brain like cold thunder Since the day I was born

Virtue’s daughter won’t you help me to keep my troubles from going nowhere I’m just another man who’s traveled all the way here to find some things ain’t never changing old preachers rambling bout the gold upstairs ya gotta make a livin’ down here too but you won’t get too far with a gun in your hand jesus, mary, and joseph please be patient everything you called the promised land was just a bit of dirt that got washed up this river’s gonna rise and this boat is bound to sink think I’ll just head back to where I’m from discord my brother you seldom take a break you’ve been on the job much too long a thousand days and just as many nights it’s a shame you’ve only just begun wandering across this land a blue eyed babe a moonlit vision on the move even with the racket and the howling of the riots I swear you can hear those footsteps coming I don’t fear the chills of washing in the lake The Indian summer warmed it up But if swimming next to you is still against the law Think I’ll just head back to where I’m from Between you and me, the bedpost, and the night I’m never quite sure what to say With chaos in the headlines let’s turn it all around And head right on back the way we came
