Well I took a camera on vacation
To fit miami in a frame She didn't mind, she blew me kisses Said, "well what's your name?" I plan my dinner at the hotel But then my dinner plans got wrecked An investment banker started something So i broke his neck We're all stuck out in the desert And we're gonna die Wipe that sand and salt From your blistering eyes Well the polygraph needles were jumpin And my conscience edward fell asleep I can't trust myself to tell the secrets I was told to keep The fastest jackalope in texas He started runnin outta luck Bit by a snake Then he got hit by jimmy's semi-truck We're all stuck out in the desert And we're gonna die Wipe that sand and salt From your blistering eyes Well i know sometimes i get distracted America's so big and wide With her long white fingers she says "hush, i'm not the marrying kind" My mind moves faster when i'm walkin My baby shoes are dipped in bronze I don't give a shit, she calls the shots That's how we get along We're all stuck out in the desert And we're gonna die Wipe that sand and salt From your blistering eyes |

Well we all gonna see a great empire
Cut down in its prime See its fruit die on the vine In prime time color time And there are millions in this world that mercy will not touch, But they don't mind that much Cause that's the way life's always been But you don't wanna hear 'bout that from me, I know, I know my place And God know I don't belong Singing a worthless freedom song It's all a waste of time It's all a waste of time The pretty girl who lives next door, She don't know how to lie When I look into her eyes, I can see the day I'm gonna die All that water flows through the cracks and holes in the silver reservoir Where your never truly far, From someone who's exactly like you It's all a waste of time It's all a waste of time Rock 'n' Roll makes me feel guilty I've got no defense My sadness makes no sense I'm gettin' rich and I'm makin' new friends All I've found is it gets colder further north you go It's pissin' rain and snow It's the world I don't want to know It's all a waste of time It's all a waste of time You take it from me You leave it behind Ah, you take it from me You leave it behind Ah, you take if from me You leave it behind |

We're driving through the canyons
Singing songs from the sixties The telephone rang, she said, "Babe, do you miss me?" And ain't it a shame not to love the one you're with Well she spoke with the prettiest mouth And she scorned me She sharpened her teeth and flashed them to warn me That ain't it a shame when you hate the one you loved Well, it couldn't be me No, it couldn't be me No, they're not in your dreams He don't look a thing like me Well I dated a rich girl With a mother of pearl Who paid rent in her high rise The weight of the world And ain't it a shame when you're exchangin' all your brand new gifts Well after a night on the floor, She put the chain on her door I'd worn out my welcome I guess she got bored She laid her on my brother And laid him across my bed No, it couldn't be me No, it couldn't be me No, they're not in your dreams He don't look a thing like me Well it sounds like rain And here that's a rare thing Out here in the desert, I'm stealing my water From a hole in a mountain that flows to the affordable homes And from the faucet it drips And I'll clean up the messes The others have left us Well I think they've blessed us There's a chain on my door But I'm in love with the one I'm with And it couldn't be me No, it couldn't be me No, they're not in your dreams He don't look a thing like me Well it couldn't be me No, it couldn't be me No, they're not in your dreams He don't look a thing like me |

Jimmy left New York for California
The east river wind blew him on his way Past the cracked concrete through the sky he scraped Said if you live like a ghost you don't leave no trace He stood on the edge of the big black ocean If you lean too close you can fall right in And a man he met said that California was sinking That he was standing on the edge of the earth It may be hard, hard to believe Before it all falls in I wanna make my mark Before I go swimming with them Great White Sharks I wanna walk this land with a pick and a pan I don't believe the gold rush is over The man said boy you got some big ideas You better make some room for the raging seas Soon you'll have salt water up to your ears You'll take one last breath and go under It may be hard, hard to believe He wanted to find out how much he was worth He wanted to leave a scar on the face of the earth But the tricks of the trade made a fool out of him Once a man eats well he gets hungry again And it's a hell of a day when you realize The people you despise are keeping you alive And you search down your soul But you don't have the guts To look into that mirror and admit that you're fucked. It may be hard, hard to believe. It may be hard, hard to believe. |

It is best to keep it all inside
When the quicksand fills your boots and rises past your eyes It is better to die suffocating and choking on your pride It is best to keep it all inside When she's telling you that you're no good And that you'll never be much more than some fool carved out of wood It's best to kill her with your kindness while you're sleeping in her bed It is best to keep it all inside It is never too late to come home You will always have your box in your room Where your momma lays your clothes out And she leaves you where you lie It is best to keep it all inside When it's good it's really good When there's fruit up on the table and she treats you like she should There's no need to get excited let your heels click on the floor It is best to keep it all inside It is best to keep it all inside |

When I was young I mimicked my father
I followed his shadow in the street I would lie awake for hours Listening to Flow's (?) Creek I was hynotized by his deep voice And the way him and my mother would speak In quiet hushed voices In words I don't understand Talking well into the warm dark night Touching my head with their hands Now I'm older And I'm affected I'm not as genuine as I let on And I lie to her like it's nothing at all Some call it leading her on Well we talk late at night I tell her I might be in love I say anything to make her head swim To help me rise above These quiet hushed voices These words I don't understand Talking well into the warm dark night Holding my head in my hands They say guilt can penetrate The thickest walls I say it keeps me ? It'll get me through Another day It'll keep them From going Now I'm a shadow of my former self And I make my own way I can't seem to get my head To settle Or to keep my mind From straying And I remember back To days past I never had a clue Ever since I could think or speak All I knew Were these quiet hushed voices These words I don't understand Words I shout into the ? night Holding my head in my hand Well these quiet hushed voices These words I don't understand Words I shout into the ? night Holding my head in my hand Quiet hushed voices Quiet hushed voices Quiet hushed voices |

I walked through walls to be with you
In the early nighttime morning came so soon And on Thursday night New York glowed I was in your arms black water flowed And if you were told Would you ever know Do you see me tonight With the coins on my eyes Love's sweet surprise The light upon your face And all the lovers at war That roll down the line Love felt so fine The light upon your face And while we lie he is alone Wide eyed lonely and dreaming of home There is nothing more that I can say I Just close my eyes let you carry me away And if you were told Would you ever know Do you see me tonight With the coins on my eyes Love's sweet surprise The light upon your face And all the lovers at war That roll down the line Love felt so fine The light upon your face Love is always looking for an open grave To lay down unfold its arms and die Do you see me tonight With the coins on my eyes Love's sweet surprise The light upon your face And all the lovers at war That roll down the line Love felt so fine The light upon your face Laura has the brightest eyes Laura has the brightest eyes |

Late in the summer children run without clothes
Chill of the winter not far down the road And in the windows are silhouettes of husbands and wives Watching in silence till the evening arrives And there all around insects scream in the trees The promise of rain can be heard on the breeze Oh Lord,Oh lord we break so easy Oh Lord,Oh lord we shatter like glass The headlights glow and the sky will soon be black The freeway riders are rolling, heading back Heading back home A dark haired woman is driving the roads Breathing deeply she don't mind being alone I spend my nights in the reservoir Saying prayers for the passing cars |

All the Protestant girls
They're all swinging their hips Fresh coat of red on their lips In a solar eclipse I sat on the steps Church bells rang in my ears Big blue sky was so clear When the sun disappeared White horses on the highway ride under this strange and darker sky A wind will come and scatter seeds and it will bury all of these The children sing across the plains their voices rise and quickly fade On a passenger train Slightly out of my mind All the women so kind Sending chills down my spine And I fell into sleep And in that sleep I did dream That I was torn at the seams I don't know what it means Inside of mama baby kicks And this house is made of stone and sticks All these things can break my bones and everyone must run alone I run all night with bursting lungs I will always be my mother's son Yes I will always be my mother's son And I'm no different from anyone Stopped traffic and stadium lights That's the view from the sky As that old black bird flies I wish I could fly What will we become When we sleep in the dirt Who will rise up first One can never be sure |

You started over yesterday
In dirty rain the sky was so grey You listen to the engine sing And you forget about everything Let the sun shine Like it's never shined Across a blue sky And watch the time fly Free all the lonely boys who love no one And dream on through the years and leave the light on You never felt a night so cold Your angry eyes were tightly shut closed You fell out of love with rock and roll You shot a hole in your radio Let the sun shine Like it's never shined Across a blue sky And watch the time fly Free all the lonely boys who love no one And dream on through the years and leave the light on Don't you dream on |

Blue light of morning palm trees in rows
The end of my affair with the west coast I was already dressed when she opened her mouth And decided to give up the ghost Helicopters the coast guard and radar screens The haunted and lonely technology I'll cut all my ties with the dead and the dying I have been wasting my time In need of a substance to steady my hands I'm gonna make the most of this day's plans Falling in love with the shivering engines Falling in love with the prettiest sound I'm on your side Behind the frontlines A tear in the fabric that no one could see But your heart was always unraveling I gathered the twine as it trailed from behind Collected it all in my coat The Pacific Ocean you claim as your own The vineyard the graveyard the grapes and the bones Falling in love with the weight of the water Falling in love with the taste of the ghost I'm on your side Behind the frontlines On drugs in the dark with the one I love That my friends is where I wish I was Tied up in twine with the dead and the dying And dragging back home under her control She's looking for someone to settle her debts And I always settle for the silhouettes Falling in love with some back lighted stranger Falling in love and going into the red I'm on your side Behind the frontlines |

Put me in your holy war
I will lay my body down I will lay my body down I will run into the flames Put me in that holy warv We will do most anything We will ride on angels wings Like new crowned Christian Kings All god's children Got automatic weapons We're coming after you We're coming after you 'Cause Jesus loves you too |

from Johnathan Rice - Trouble Is Real (2005)
New York City take me down Beneath my feet the city street The dirt the shit and the concrete Well I'm on my way Get closer every day Gonna close my eyes and pray For salvation day Another year another war Something else worth dying for So spill your blood for the land you love And bring them fire from above Well I'm on my way Get closer every day Gonna close my eyes and pray For salvation day Breathe honey breathe honey breathe While you still can Well I'm on my way Get closer every day Gonna close my eyes and pray For salvation day |

from Johnathan Rice - Trouble Is Real (2005)
The soldiers will run and the guns they will blow them away
They're choking on sand in some faraway land today Don't go Stay at home Was it you that I saw in the market just losing your way With your head in your hands and baby just crying away Don't go Stay at home Such a sad sight to see all the sweethearts alone in their rooms The dancehalls are empty under the summer moon Don't go Stay at home Stay home |

from Johnathan Rice - Trouble Is Real (2005)
The child is an acrobat He walks upon the wire Knowing well that he might fall Still he climbs up higher If he should slip He will surely die And his body will break and his soul will fly Into the night where the spirits scream He will leave this world and become a dream My father was a sailor He lived upon the water Knowing well that he might drown He sailed beyond the harbor If he should fall He will surely die And his body will sink and his soul will fly Into the night where the spirits scream He will leave this world to become a dream He will leave this world to become a dream Nothing will change Time goes by and nothing will My love she is my saving gracev She holds me through the winter Knowing well that I will leave Still she holds me closer And if my heart should break I will surely die And my blood will flow and my soul will fly Into the night where the spirits scream We will leave this world and become a dream We will leave this world and become a dream |
