Mockingbird 06:24
If home is where the heart is I must be lost in my head Don't give me none of your corn-made whiskey, that'll just go right to my head I really want you to go there with me, that's what she said Sometimes it's good to hear your own words played back; get a new angle on the sound... So if you don't like the way things are going, well, you can change things around... Mockingbird repeat my every word I'll let you know if I go too far Mockingbird sing back my every word I could let you go but it's just too hard Wasn't ready for the winter kinda came outta left field No more crops and yields, Slo-mo shots of 'quil to warm me up in my body and my soul it's been cold in here since the heater went up last year in February it was smokey and scary, I could barely see down the stairway. But I guess that's how the winter will do ya, icy wind blows straight through ya You think you're tough well this is the season to prove it Gonna try to turn a new leaf on over to the other side, I'm gonna try Mockingbird repeat my every word I'll let you know if I go too far Mockingbird sing back my every word I could let you go but it's just too hard Been eating cheap cuz my wallet's getting skinny yknow I ain't been paid just yet But you fill me up with a fuel, it's uncanny I think I'll just sleep when I'm dead Do what I do out of good conscience I don't like letting you down So if I don't end up the way that I have been, well, I hope you still come around Didn't see the spring coming right around the corner, fresh new growth popping up out the soil yeah Fueled by the past winter's rains, in the last season it really came down didn't it? Driving down to the desert for the bloom, chant and rock under the equinox moon Gonna turn a new leaf over to the other side, I'm gonna try Mockingbird repeat my every word I'll let you know if I go too far Mockingbird sing back my every word I could let you go but it's just too hard In the flattering imitation game that we're playing I'll let you know if I take it a little too far yeah Copycat repeat everything that I've been saying I'll let you know If home is where the heart is then I'm already there

Stranger new lovers Day-glow colors Waiting for Summer Feeling Smothered Birds fly onwards and leave no comment Vague false comments Waiting for Summer Talking low misunderstood Speak Up, it'd do ya good stop em from asking you what My mind's been blown as it should And if you understood that it's meant to be empathy'd come more easily I know that it would See, I've come to be a little closer to the dream Still going up, still feeling good I've seen you move all wrapped up, wrapped up in flame We've met before I'm sure but I can't recall the name Blue-haired angel girl, dressed like an ocean legend He sure got it wrong, but I got it right Didn't see you again that night; may not see you again in this life but I think your lips remember and so do mine I wonder would I even recognize you now? I wonder now Talking low misunderstood Speak Up, it'd really do ya some good stop em from always asking you what My mind's already been blown as it should And if you understood that it's meant to be empathy'd come more easily I know that it would See, I've come to be a little closer to the dream Still going up, still feeling good

City 05:33
Sleek black car Drive on under the lights baby Go Go Go All the street signs blur, we can't even read at this speed Let's get outta here babe Go Go Go Beautiful people gone as soon as you can blink Maybe we'll stop in and get a cool drink; take it to the corner We're thirsty after travelling such a long way It's time we pulled over and took a break We'll try to make it quick but I think we need this moment to recover yeah City driving makes it harder to think; so close, so disconnected We really don't want to bother nobody, let's try not to offend anyone Hood up if you don't wanna be recognized, and chitchat only if you have to Sleek black car Drive on into the night baby Go Go Go Back on the right track Still coming out ahead let's get on, Go Go Go Two minds strapped in to this vehicle with a singular vision No need to arouse any suspicion (Well that much is a given) Our razor-sharp intention can't be underplayed, keep the pedal to the fucking metal babe Pursuing wolves are howling and they don't play, so keep that pedal to the metal Hold up if the watchers catch a whiff of us; better yet, before then, slow down Play it cool if they happen to look at us then head on outta town Lunar eclipse We can't even see it under these lights let's get outta here Go Go Go! We never had another way to go

To choose or not to choose: that's your decision To drop out of life or to follow through; that's your decision

Kamehameha 04:56
Infatuated inflated get-go, let go of your ego it's jaded, created no flow Goku kamehameha-ha-ha don't you know you're dislocated and lost Flotation puncture cuts confrontation's function gumption replacement and facing and facing and facing yourself Entry predated preserved, served up on plates like dessert, deserving worthy conjunction, punching the lunch out of someone's no way to get yours Entitlement is often a curse Prepare yourself for hard lessons, it's a blessing you can even move, even groove to this tune or sleep in sight of the Moon if you wish Yeah if you wish Pushers gonna push ya no matter where ya go Go shatter all your bones or chatter through the telephone That won't hack it though, it adds no pizzazz to a blank soul Fool, get more Thankful! You're drip-fed poison; loving lapping it up I'd drink a cup of the stuff too but I know what it does to fools like me and fools like you and fools like we; caught up so easily swept downstream Well all the shoes in the world won't make a man cool, no they won't do nothing for ya in the end You gotta have a friend or two to have your back Or when the pressure comes you'll just crack underneath it I know that fools like me and fools like you and fools like we get caught up so easily - We've got to break free I'll let the band talk now... Entry predated preserved, served up on plates like dessert, deserving worthy conjunction, punching the lunch out of someone's no way to get yours Oh no Prepare yourself for hard lessons, it's a blessing we can even move, even groove to this tune or sleep in sight of the Moon if we wish Oh if we wish

I understand the reasoning, the blackberry season's in to the marsh and the hills flock the migrants, and the hogs are fat - Alive! Late summer faces Alive! Scamper light on the rocks just trying to avoid a snakebite, Lakeside, daylight and I'm right in the center of the Universe I'm right in the middle Time erupts as minnows jump in the evening hours All uncovered by the wind; eventually buried again Ooh I cross another one off the list The sound grows in leaps and bounds and bounces back! Oh! Windless reflection borrows the sky and bounces it back! I am looking for some kind of echo chamber I've been searching for your echo chamber to scream in I am looking for some kind of echo chamber to scream in Looks like I've found your echo chamber to scream in Scamper light on the rocks just trying to avoid a snakebite, Lakeside, daylight and I'm right in the center of the Universe I'm right in the middle Why won't you go ahead and back me up now? Just back me up now

Revelry 03:56
Pure revelry's what I need Pure revelries to be will be the undoing of me Let me trace over the words so I never learn Let me trace over the words again so I never learn to read em Can we love and evolve? Without becoming evil? Let me trace over the words so I never learn Let me trace over the words again so I never learn to read em Can we love and evolve? Without becoming evil? Can we love and evolve?

Woven 04:08
May I be woven into your spirit blanket like a tiny thread may I be woven in or tossed aside instead May I be woven into something warm and all-encompassing Eliminating the need to feel insecure at all May I be woven into your spirit blanket May I be woven in yeah Yeah Oh Yeah May I be woven into your spirit again
