Verse 1
I sold my food coupon to catch the overnight coach
I been phased by self-doubt I cannot live without.
Chorus
These times have come before
This ache we all ignore
Verse 2
Stephen Dedalus you’re too high risk
They’re earning 90 grand I’m just a western man…
Chorus
Outro
And there’s a colour
I see no other
It paints me blue
In spite of you
Utopia in Williamsberg
Could we create the most beautiful love?
Did we ever run fully clothed into water?
All my ghosts have been killers; cowards of the night
they’d kill for a cure none of us dieing
I’d like to talk about the politics of the day
But you’ll have fun some other way some other day’s begun
Joe and I observed a movement at the Tuneyards
and we could feel it rising up
Music and joy coming to you
and we could feel it rising up
Fists to the sky, not taking no shit
And we could feel it rising up.
How I wish I could remember tender whispers in the dark
I’ve fallen far to this reap this reflection
You bought me one last craft beer, an unfamiliar smile
there’s still so much I saved to say
I’d like to ask you bout the details of your day
But you’ll have fun some other way some other day’s begun
And you want to go there
And you want to go there now
And you want to be there
And you want to be there now
Joe & I observed a movement at the Tuneyards
and we could feel it rising up
Music and joy coming to you
and we could feel it rising up
Spring it will belong to my friend , and us all
And we could hear the chorus grow
Emily rose; she could sing it
And we could hear the chorus grow
and we could feel it rising up
fists to the sky not taking no shit
and we could feel it rising up
Fists to the sky, not taking no shit
and we could feel it rising up.
there is greatness in these hills
that rise up from our a sullied streets
and we know how it feels to climb
There’s greatness in these trees.
It’s a beautiful thing to see
when we fall we roll when we fall we roll
when we fall we roll when we fall we roll
Sam knows it in the New York
It comes with passing trains
he sings with the power of sea
there’s a greatness in his song
& there’s greatness in these hills
when we fall we roll when we fall we roll
when we fall we roll when we fall we roll
woke with a lightness I’ve never known
strength and it was growing.
Fall and it was..
like the song of the birds at dawn
as I rise over pastures green
and leave my shit on the road now i’m running
and I’ll run ‘gainst this Takapau wind
and i’ll run cross these frozen fields
and one is life when we run alone
through this land that we’ve loved known
there’s greatness in these hills…

Lost my voice didn’t talk for seven days
did some thinking about all the clever ways to say
will you be my dear freind again?
Found an email in an inbox packed so of love
“thank you darling there’s heaviness that’s holding me down
and you made me smile with your kindness, sweetness”
there’s a beach and it’s warm and we watch waves white
there’s a room with a bed and we lie until noon
it’s up north and it’s safe and it’s mine & it’s yours
I always said that you were my favourite
sunday night’s the time I get a little bit mad for you
start holding a light (doing it all for) for you
Everything is perfect all of the time
I said you’d be fine as I sat and watched you cry
I have done five bad things in my life
lose track of the days round summer time
knew it was coming & it’ll be gone tonight…
Just need a little bit of your light now lover
before I shut my screen down
Give me a little bit of your lighting baby
to replace my vice in the night
I feel you shine from South America girl
I’d send you gifts if…
I learn to leave your light alone and I find my own.
Give me a little bit of your light now darling
to take the chill off this online chat
Read my words say that you feel that too
You’re my ghost
the bird in my head (that flew)
I’ll learn to leave your light alone when I find my own.
And i’ll learn to feel a whole & real when the wound doth heal…
Be kind when your falling
free your folly
See my green light…
Internet freedom is love
Hollow notes empty inside
myself extends by machine to a million kind beings
& I feel it growing
we have begun to find comfort in hums and fake light
We found a space to share good deeds at light speed
& I feel it growing..
Got your picture on my screen
love streams by wifi through sky…
Like the link you sent me
love streams by wifi through sky…
There’s a web
and we connect
i’m too old
to see what’s next
you want a life
like mine don’t ya
I still hold a hope for that future
got a call from my girl
28 years and I still fear
crys of day amplified
to my night say you’re online…
Leave my lesson dear
and come lie with me
we’ll find our way back south
Wear your face of light
and hold your headset right
we’ll take the bus and roll
We’re the team of dreams
on a mission grave
Now’s the time so we live it. Magnificent…
Je crois pas en l’avenir
Find a hole and fall
then recall the soul
tell me straight up
cross a river
pursue a shiver
call your mother
Je crois pas en l’avenir
it’s a sorrow we both fear
it’s a belief that hides when you’re here…
Know My Kind
We come from the south live in safety friend
We left in search of stillness without end
i’m the type who comes to loath the life
once it’s chosen then we lose our right to strife
when I climb that hill
you’re climbing with me
when I ride that road
you’re riding with me
take my hand
feel the warmth of my love
know my kind
lost in the light
There’s a road to days without such doubt
took it just far enough to find out
that I coud not take her with me….
Know my kind…
Ride this high speed train leave our pain
Ride this high speed train
Tomorrow never came in the Great North
It was nothing like we thought.
Action brings good times and takes lives
action brings good times
The white sky bleached our dreams for that town
we’re on a beeline for better days
Plown fields and naked trees pass by me
fields with naked trees
bid farewell and submit to the spell
feel a holistic human heart
Kate bush guides my thoughts of granduer
Kate Bush guides my thoughts
She takes her shoes off and throws them in a lake
she saved my life
as i flee on this tgv…
Beeline for Better Days
