Headed There
04:51

There's always gold in them there mountains
Waiting for us to search it out
And in the depths of the caves
We can see shine through the mud
And we're headed there
Yes we're headed there
Oh we're headed there
Yes we're headed there
But it's easier staying poor
Than to chisel into the rocks
And who says I need to search it out
When I'm pretty comfy here on my couch
But I'm headed out
Yes I'm headed out
Oh I'm headed out
Yes I'm headed out
Leaves decay and fall from branches seemingly sturdy
And even if I get my shoes a little bit dirty
I'm going where there’s promise of a new kind of life
One where I can sing
And I'm headed there
Yes I'm headed there
Oh I'm headed there
Yes I'm headed there
Thought that if we could sing a little bit louder
Our empty praise would make you just a little bit prouder
But I'll just fall inside of your grace
The place where I can sing

Three Whole Days
03:16
|
|||
|
We fast for three whole days
Really didn't feel so good
So we slowed the next three days
At least then we were full
What's in it for me?
Just give me space and alcohol
Just give me space

The Devil, the Bride
04:29

We've got the money
To make this good, make this good
We've got the systems
I think we should, I think we should
Take this out of his hands
And place it all in our heads
So let's go, let's go, let's go
Strap on your armor and be shattered
What's wrong with killing
If it seems right, it seems right
To lift your arms up
Declare this war, declare this fight
Take this out of his hands
And place it all on our heads
So let's go, let's go, let's go
Strap on your armor and be shattered
It's getting kinda chancy
For us to keep on dancing
Like nothing's happening
Brother, there's something happening
Let's not pretend we're Jesus
God knows ain’t Jesus
Sure there are things that we should try
But God knows we ain’t Jesus
The bride is playing with the devil

God, the Sea, Us and You
05:25
|

|
We never knew quite what you did, but I know
I could never do it myself
We could stare out at the Atlantic and wonder if
You were just beyond the curve
And though we got used to you being gone
We wish you'd come home tonight
This town was never quite the same when you were gone
We wish you'd come home tonight
Come home tonight
We never knew when you'd be home
Standing in the doorway of your son’s room
You would let it get so loud
It was almost like you missed it
And though we got used to you being gone
We wish you'd come home tonight
This town was never quite the same when you are gone
We wish you'd come home tonight
And though we got used to you being gone
We wish you'd come home tonight
This town and these faces
These streets and these places
Come home tonight
Come home
Your ship's gone and sailed out to sea
And though we never wanted you to leave
We know that one day we'll come and sail it too
God, the sea, us and you

Swamp Thing
03:58
|
|||
|
I think I should take off my shoes
The rains are makin’ this swamp rise to my knees
And if I'm gonna catch him,
And I'm gonna catch him
Last thing I wanna do is freeze
Cuz there's something in these backwoods
My daddy always said it'd be as easy
As nailing Jell-O to the wall
And Momma said, yes
Momma said
Don't expect me to sit around and watch you fall
Well I ain't got much but I got a big gun
I ain't got much but I got a big gun
Guess that's why I never learned how to run
I ain't got much but I got a big gun
Be very, very quiet
There's something circling my feet
And I won't lie, it normally wins
Reaches up and easily drowns me
But this time I'm not going down without a fight

Water
03:42
|
|||
|
We could be born in water, by rivers
But we're stuck in hospital beds
No, we aren't born in water, but under bright lights
And when the beams hit our eyes, we cry out for the first time
Come on, come on, this can't be right
Come on, come on, there must be more
To life than eating and breathing
And finding ways to stay content
So when I beg you for noise, fill my hands with quiet
We're doing our best to find a place to rest
And I think I found it
So bring us life in water, by rivers
From the branch that fell to earth and from whose veins we're given new birth
Come one, come all
I think I found something
(2x)

Everyone moves so fast
Making everything seem so slow
I can't seem to help but write
Things that I don't really know
I'm pretty sure there's two of me
I'm pretty sure there's two of me
And neither one of us is going
To say that we know what we're doing
Well, I don't ever really know
I don't ever really know
I'm watching old tv
But it doesn't bring you near me
Maybe I should go outside
But then I couldn't see the screen so clearly
Where are you, where are you
This tent of trees has shaded you
And the darkness has fought off the light
An evil man can grab his gun
And take advantage of what's been done
So while in the darkness you cannot be found
And you do things you'd never do above the ground
And sometimes I think that man is me
Bring that man to his knees
Set the afflicted free
Arise from the dark
