Fair Hanging Moonlight

Don’t forget bout the child in yourself
Who’s smiling still
Through the days
Wrinkle lines
Silver hair
The child’s still there
If you need to blot away the sun
Fair hanging moonlight falls at dusk

So Glad I Met You
05:46
|
|||
|
You can shake that money tree
But it might cost you a soul
With endless forms of tender
That are better than a bounty of gold
When that spirit sings
It’ll vibrate through your bones
Through every last note of splendor
Little bird I’m stuck on your song
I wonder what life would feel like without you
Just so glad I met you
Just so glad I met you
Long time that I’ve been in this place
Running all around the globe
No smile or familiar face with a glow quite like yours
So don’t fly too far, fly too far away
Little bird I’m stuck on your song

The Record Store

It was hard to tell whether it was a cry of joy or fear
Whether he was laughing at himself or just crying in the mirror
But if he could make it out the house down the street
He could go where the people meet
Where the world still ain’t losing its flair
The record store
The sun is always shining on it
Means so much more
Than just some silly place to buy things
The record store
The sun is always shining on it
Means so much more
So just shine your sun right down on me
Well he’s a little bit older now but still drives by that building for fun
It’s some kinda beauty shop with lots of neon signs in the front
But he still smiles cuz he knows that old store, it saved his soul
And he’s still got more records than Elton John had fans out in the stands

Liar's Mountain
03:54
|

|
A guilty choir leads us softly through a tragic ballad
Another man who had it hard and had to leave this town
There’s something fishy, something slightly kinda off about it
Look here man, there’s something going down
There was a knife, a missing kid, a couple windows shattered
Some kinda scene out of a thriller novel by Dan Brown
I wouldn’t trip, stop stressing out, just get your head together
We could do more if we were all just less stressed out
The sun will set early now after they all throw dirt upon Liar's Mountain
There’s somethin chewin on the truth out in the shadows right there
I hear it smackin on it’s cud and it won’t spit it out
Forget the fear, don’t hype it up, or even talk about it
It’s payday folks, we’re gonna weed you out
Their crossing tongues, and slappin drums inside a reverb chamber
The kinda words that wear a hole and bring a family down
Up in the trees, out in the woods, they think they’re so much better
COME ON DOWN HERE AND GET UP OFF YOUR IVORY TOWER
So here we are down at its base
In the wide open grassless glades
It's what we built, that towering face
So we'll sing our songs in the shade

Doors of Dismay
03:28
|
|||
|
Though I'm afraid
I'll open up the doors of dismay
Just show me all the sights that I hate
And lead me to my minds disarray
I know that when it comes, when it comes
I'll go
Believing in nothing
And pushing through the door
In four letter weather
I'm falling through the snow
Believing in nothing
Is easier to do
Than hoping for better
When it comes, when it comes
I'll go
Thrown to the flame
My body will just smolder away
Relieving me a monstrous weight
And showing me the stars far away
I know that when it comes, when it comes
I'll go

Pipe Dreams

Pipe dreams
Eyes red like a crime scene
Waiting till they all just decide to come true
Spite thee
Early bird that bites me
Every time I try to wake up before noon
These scribbles and thoughts
Ascend to the sun
And then they burn up
Pipe Dreams
Burning with excitement
Up until the knock of reality booms
Finally dealt with my anxiety
With a little help from the fine aging fruit
All those could’ve beens
Would’ve made me a happy man
Those old promises
Line the walls like ancient artifacts
All that good intent
Didn’t matter in the end
Those younger hopeful years
And zealous claims
We’re in vain

True Love
03:07
|
|||
|
Of all the feelings good and bad
There’s one the size of the ocean
And it’s many tides
never rest
Late in the day I’ll go outside
Staring up at the twilight
I fantasize
That we’ve met
Yeah true love it’ll find you
When the morning comes
True love it’ll find you
In the dark
Yeah true love it'll find you
Under the moon or sun
Yeah it’s true that
It’ll find you
In its time
But it’s a promise with a catch
Just like Daniel Johnston said many times
Till the end
If you wanna meet fears better half
All you have to do is just realize
It exists

Day Dreams
02:15
|

|
I got this feeling that everything about the world
Is growing old without you
I hit a ceiling and my feet are kicking up the dust
Magazines litter my bedroom floor
But I’m bored of them too
I think it’s seeming like I really need a place to go
Day dreams
Lucid and lovely
New worlds
New worlds are blooming
It kinda seems like everything about this life is just momentary
I catch a wave but keep on crashing on the same old shore
Would you be anything without your words?
And just KNOW your story
I need a place I’ve never seen or heard about before

Happy Alone

🙍‍♀️You would say I’m just young and broken
🙍‍♂️That was just one time and I said I’m sorry
🙍‍♀️I could feel your growing resentment
🙍‍♂️After awhile it was all I had left
🙍‍♀️A girl can’t dream when she’s locked in the bathroom
🙍‍♂️Oh baby quit it, you were on the phone with that one dude
🙍‍♀️Still I just don’t see how we can be together
🙍‍♂️Then let’s call it a day, Its probably game over
I thought that I never would
Be able to piece myself together again
At first it was bad
But in the end it was good because
Now I’m just happy alone
🙍‍♀️It sure does feel like we’re worlds apart now
🙍‍♂️Our love’s like a star fading out in the distance
🙍‍♀️I hardly know how it all coulda gone so wrong
🙍‍♂️It’s like a tangle of yarn that we can’t find the end of
🙍‍♀️It’s an ugly scene being broken hearted
🙍‍♂️Believe me I’m with you I’ve been under the weather
🙍‍♀️We’ve said our piece, now we’re saying our goodbyes
🙍‍♂️Take care my sugar, I’ll be gone before sunrise

First Tattoo

Maybe growing up is useless
Useless if you’re happier naive
This state of mind is growing elusive
All tangled up good in reality
Golden days
Riding in the car right next to you
A dream state
We might as well have been up on the moon
Bold instincts
A bird flew through the wires of the cage
Out into
Oh endless world
Damn I wish I didn't cover up my first tattoo
Man I really wish I wouldn't have
It reminded me of you
Swayin' to the sound of a new day
A new day where everything stays the same
They sure don't make friends like they used to
And all I ever needed was a few
Old pictures
Reminds me what 11 years can do
In that time
I might have seen a miracle or two
That future
The one we said we had but never saw
It feels strange
Knowing you’re gone

Four Letter Friend
03:28

Girl
Why you lying next to me
When you’re on your phone so constantly
And your body language says that you don’t care
And why am I such a silly man
With a love for toys and Spider Man
And a big ole bowl of Fruit Loops everyday
9 and 10 is on the clock
And it’s rollin round and it’s agin’ us
And at this point I hope we will never speak again
We’ve played every card that we’ve got
We’ve played more rounds than many can count
We’ve played every card that we’ve got
Here’s to the end my four letter friend
Worlds
Collide inside a sinking ship
While the shore just slowly vanishes
And our miniature size problems break the oar
We’ve looked at options A to Z
And they all involve a piece of me
That I don’t know how to give or even share
So why can’t we accept it’s bad and move on without a boxing match
Between our fear to go and will to stay?

Fox Without a Tail
04:04

Two steps too close to bows & spears
Left you an unsightly fox to bear
Is it true that you want us to follow?
So you can feel better than
Having to go it alone
Oooooo
We saw right through your games
Oooooo
Fox without a tail
Never to worry Puddin Tame
Cuz when you’re feeling crummy I’ll be there
But it’s a fool that would jump in the fire
Just to give company
To your inevitable demise
Out in the fields
Under the moon
Over the giant
Rabbit hole
Up in the trees
A beautiful view
Down to the ocean
On your own
Milk from the stars
Reflect from the dunes
A brilliant fire
Red & gold
Out to the sea
Looking for truth
Feeling inspired
All alone
Floating on jewels
All glowing green
Lustrous diamonds
Down below
Animal shapes
Form in the clouds
And play with the comets
Up above
The morning dew
Millions of beads
Full of blue lightning
Start to grow
You’re getting close
To finding the peace
That you’ve always wanted
Welcome home

Our Billy
03:52

Billy Brave, he looks so cool,He thinks he’s on a path we haven’t
crossed.Read his cards, he’s nobody’s fool,He thinks he’s got the
love I think I lost. But he can’t understand it, it gets so bad,
Sometimes the boy despairs to comprehend.They’ll break him
down, they’ll drive him mad,Somebody should have taught him
how to bend.Billy True, the Sword of Youth, The center of the
world for all good hopes.Make room, stand back, he carries
Truth,You see our boy still hasn’t learned the ropes.And his happy-
face grin will tumble upside down,As he finds out how the ropes
have been laid out.You can be a monster, you can be a clown, As
long as you don’t say what it’s all about.Billy Free, so
fearlesslyEmbarking on a journey of the soul.He’s the crusader, the
ship at sea,Just before the Maelstrom sucks him down the hole.But
it’s all so hopeless, it’s all so cruel,Into this mess our Billy shall be
hurled.And if you want to stay happy, if you want to stay
cool,Don’t ever fall in love with this world.

Sweet, retro rock. Encapsulates the 60s sound perfectly. Festive, chill; acid dancer. Fun to listen to, great to vibe off of, move your body to, or just relax with. Every song on this album is a hit. Dancing album for sure... I saw them live, same kind of fun!
