The Remedy

This is the life, this is the remedy
this is the only thing we know
it is the golden wash of summers day
it is the winter coming to a close
it is not the way we are the lords, the lords
stumbling drunken to our thrones
we will give in, we will give anything
just to keep that money rolling
crooked world, speak not for me
there is misery in the gold you keep
there is nothing more i need
fall away idle hands
cast away your greed from me
sister you are stronger now
than any mountain that i have seen
it is the world that claims you weak
lift up your heart, tear down the disbelief
broken lives and broken lands
we are sick, we are not singing
but in your eyes i see lightning
hold me brother, the wind is rising
is see a storm, i the remedy
i feel the rain washing over me
i feel the doom of success and i shall run away
i hear the howl of the world and it is calling me
i shall hope for the dawn in the morning
i will tell my friends they are doing okay
and if that dawn don’t come back in the morning
i will tell my friends, “do not be afraid”

Now When It Rains
06:25
|
|

don’t keep it inside, put it to rest
lay it down at night upon your mother’s chest
your heart is sick when the world is broken
but that cardinal still sings for you in the morning
it is in a doom and a haze we are reminded each day
that we are waste in the eyes of success
and instead of enjoying every given light
we die alone and dance depressed singing,
“do you do you ever feel alive?”
i pray for the day to come when all hope will go blind
“do you do you ever feel alive?”
don’t let the greed and gold pull the wool over your eyes
he listens to the wind sing in the morning
and watches his garden grow in the evening
hope lives in a heart only some can imagine
the rest just watch the world consumed by competition
but not you my friend, you are not one of them
oh you were always one that could listen
to the only thing worth hearing was that wind blowing
to the only thing worth watching was your garden growing
now flee from your mind oh flee from destruction
lay down on your back, let the sun bleach all corruption
now when it rains he starts singing
now when it pours he starts laughing

The Oceans Wide Grin
03:47
|
|
||
delusional devils pile up up up up on the coast
the sacred torch light of an oil man calls
“here be paradise, for those who want the most!”
and the oceans wide grin for those on its chin
who will one day be swallowed whole
no, no one will settle on the edge of the sea
and expect not to become a ghost
oh anna, anna look how their egos float
hahah hahah! to bad egos can’t build a fucking boat!
set your fear on fire
oh do not feel ashamed
there will always be crooked thoughts
from men with crooked hearts
and they are lost in a sea of pain
but that sea can not be tamed
oh but it will all dry up into rain
it will all dry up into rain
you are the sun, you are the sun
you are the sun, so dry up your pain
your are the sun, so dry up your pain

A Heart Full Of Light
03:09

i was once a younger man, my heart once was full of light
oblivious to all the world, i blamed all evil on the night
now my heart is full of struggle, now i see it in your eyes
damn the war, oh damn the rich ones
let me lift you up tonight
sickened old man, you are cut from an evil cloth
i could tear your heart out and you wouldn’t mind
but in the dark, you are too afraid to talk
do you live your life just to feel nothing at all?
nothing hurts if you let it go
turn your head, it will be fine
but the struggle against the storm
in your heart, won’t let go
i was once a younger man, my heart once was full of light

Alex
06:45
|
|

she was born with a heart
that could lift this poor world into the sky
and for every hard rain, she knew there would be a light shining
but what is left of a girl that takes all the pain inside her
and what is left of a world that wants such a girl to die
hold your head up alex, everything will be just fine
death shall show its sharp fangs and crawl into your bed tonight
but if you FEAR NO MORE you will be ready for its bite
you will be alone, but you will be at home with the night
oh and to be home
to let the wind blow cold
to taste the spring air
and let the old world grow old
you were a lion in a cage
you fought hard against the waves
but now is the time to get along with the dying
let go, let go
let us dance real slow
you gotta lift up your heart
and let your last light glow

Resentment Teeth
06:37
|
|

resentment teeth from the man who has wasted his whole life
he set out to conquer the world but was left ebbing in his own tide
he said, "son i have seen the whole world, and i saw nothing"
he said, "I went hunting for all the wrong reasons, now there is nothing in my stomach"
oh it was greed, it was the absence of love, it was passed down from their father
it was the promise of gold glittering in the eye, the competition between brothers
but what will be left when the mines are laying ruined upon the mountain
will the very last breath before your father’s death be that he was wrong and should be forgotten
only thing we ever wanted
was honest love and to build a home for it
but this hard land will not let you have it
its teeth are sharp and full of resentment
we all get spit into the desert sometimes
and the wind will blow the world in your eyes
but you got to hold hold hold up your heart
oh you got to run run run hands out into the dark
