THE WILD HUNT
There is a crow moon comin’ in well you keep looking out
It is the hollow month of March now sweeping in
Let’s watch phenomenons that rise out of the darkness now
Within the light she is my storming heroin
And old machines abandoned by the ancient races stand
I hear them hummin’ down below in hollow earth
Oh hell I guess I know in a while I will go under too
But just for now I let the spring and storm return
I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin’
I live until the call
And I plan to be forgotten when I’m gone
Yes, I’ll be leavin’ in the fall
And I will sleep out in the glade just by the giant tree
Just to be closer when my spirit’s pulled away
I left a nervous little boy out on the trail today
He’s just a mortal to the shoutin’ cavalcade
I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin’
I live until the call
And I plan to be forgotten when I’m gone
Yes, I’ll be leavin’ in the fall
Let’s open up the windows, have Satan departin’ now
And we’ll be even when the blues fall down like hail
Hell, I don’t even care no more about cadejo now
If he’s a white one or a black one on the trail
I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin’
I live until the call
And I plan to be forgotten when I’m gone
Yes, I’ll be leavin’ in the fall
Yes, I’ll be leavin’ in the fall
BURDEN OF TOMORROW
Oh I was set to find the lonesome place
Where I was lost but left a trace
By carving riddles on the lonesome vine
Oh but rumor has it that I wasn’t born
I just walked in one frosty morn
Into the vision of some vacant mind
Oh once I held a pony by its flagging mane
And once I called the shadow in the a-turning game
But I will fight this stranger that you should fear
So I won’t be a burden of tomorrow dear
Oh and Xavier’s on the border of the sun
Swings on the chambers of her guns
And tries to shoot the chord and light the path
Oh but hell I’m just a blind man on the plains
I drink my water when it rains
And live by chance among the lightning strikes
Oh once I held a glacier to an open flame
And once I felt like wildcat in the a-falling game
But I will fight this stranger that you should fear
So I won’t be a burden of tomorrow dear…
Oh the singers on the edge to feed the canyon’s mouth
They will go on forever til they sing you out of time
But I will fight this stranger that you should fear
So I won’t be a burden of tomorrow dear…
TROUBLES WILL BE GONE
Oh, when it’s god I see in headlights kneeling down on frozen highways
And salvation in white knuckles on a wheel
And the deer is in the audience by the border of the darkness
where forgiveness grows and slowly winds away
Well there’s a question somewhere asked with all the answers inside
But I’ll never find the kid before she’s gone
Well the day is never done, but there’s a light on where you’re sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
But now the ghost is in my jacket and my stairs were built in anger
Winding forcefully but end up where I stand
But there are no rocks or salt and nails,
I load my cannons not to kill you
I simply lost the words to tell you I’m afraid
And there’s a sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will tell you “turn if there is one”
Still the day is never done, but there’s a light on where you’re sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
Oh darling, when it’s you I see in headlights, driving down the golden highway
And salvation in the beauty of some brace
And the deer is gone without me to the valley of surrender
There is still another world along its tracks
But there’s that sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will say “there’s still a higher one”
And now the day is slowly setting, and the light’s on where you’re sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone…
YOU’RE GOING BACK
I could roll you to hell
like you swim from your heavens
I could drive you so safe
I could walk you to here
Let us float in the tears
Let us cry from the laughters
When it’s not for some sake
And the city’s not near
But now you’re going back
You’re going back, you’re going back…
Well I hope you could hear
All the screams from the forest
All the ghosts in the trees
And the love of a dog
Let us float in the tears
Let us cry from the laughters
When it’s not for some sake
And the city’s not near
But now you’re going back
You’re going back, you’re going back
You said, “Driver, please, don’t go that fucking way”
You said, “Just let it go away”
You said, “Just let it go”
I could roll you to hell
like you swim from your heavens
I could drive you so safe
I could walk you to here
But you drive me to tears
like I cry from your laughters
When it’s not for some sake
And the city’s still dear
And now you’re going back
You’re going back, you’re going back
Oh, now you’re going back…
THE DRYING OF THE LAWNS
She said I cannot tell you why, she said I’m in a rush
There are softer dreams for you to think about now love
Things that you have seen this night that run by this river’s flow
I can use you if you’re in the flame, I’m a-growin’ old
And no this is not the summer dream she said
It’s just the drying of the lawns I want to leave out there
Well I said I’ve sailed the frozen corners of the dark Atlantic Sea
And I drifted on the waves and the mirage beneath
And never have I felt such numb and pointless searchin’ true
As when I set my eyes on torched up lands of the mark of you
And no this is not the summer dream she said
It’s just the drying of the lawns I’m going to leave out there
She said you follow me like sheep that think this cain could do some harm
But I tell you boy I’m frightened still with a sister’s heart
I set my eyes upon the shore whenever you wake up
I’m leavin’ because you don’t feel what you’re dreamin’ of
And no this is not the summer dream she said
It’s just the drying of the lawns I’m going to leave out there
But I will stand down in the hallway with no thought to leave the set
Of a movie I will sure as hell not end just yet
If evenings are for romance then this mornin’ is for us
It will never end and our last dream will leave this house
And no this is not the summer dream I said
It’s just the drying of the lawns that want to leave us here
Oh it’s the drying of the lawns that want to leave us here
KING OF SPAIN
I never knew I was a lover,
Just cause I steal the things you hide,
Just cause I focus while we’re dancing,
Just cause I offered you a ride.
Still I am not from Barcelona,
I am not even from Madrid.
I am a native of the North folk
And that can mess up any kid.
Well if you could reinvent my name,
well if you could redirect my day,
I wanna be the King of Spain.
And I will settle in Pamplona
And I’ll provoke the bulls with words
And then I’ll send a man to meet them all
the blood is fake, so I have heard.
And all the senoritas sighing,
Will be the fountain of my lies.
But while we’re floating in siestas
You search for bottles and for knives.
Well if you could reinvent my name,
Well if you could redirect my day,
I wanna be the King of Spain.
And I wear my boots of Spanish leather
Oh while I’m tightening my crown.
I’ll disappear in some flamenco
Perhaps I’ll reach the other side.
Why are you stabbing my illusion?
Just cause I stole some eagle’s wings
Because you named me as your lover
Well, I thought I could be anything.
Well if you could reinvent my name,
well if you could redirect my day,
I wanna be the King of Spain.
LOVE IS ALL
Well I walk upon the river like it’s easier than land
Evil’s in my pocket and your will is in my hand
Oh, your will is in my hand
And I’ll throw it in the current that I stand upon so still
Love is all, from what I’ve heard, but my heart’s learned to kill
Oh, mine has learned to kill
Oh, I said I could rise
From the harness of our goals
Here come the tears
But like always, I let them go
Just let them go
And now spikes will keep on falling from the heavens to the floor
The future was our skin and now we don’t dream anymore
No, we don’t dream anymore
Like a house made from spider webs and the clouds rolling in
I bet this mighty river’s both my savior and my sin
Oh, my savior and my sin
Oh, I said I could rise
From the harness of our goals
Here come the tears
But like always, I let them go
Just let them go
Well I walk upon the river like it’s easier than land
Evil’s in my pocket and your strength is in my hand
Your strength is in my hand
And I’ll throw you in the current that I stand upon so still
Love is all, from what I’ve heard, but my heart’s learned to kill
Oh, mine has learned to kill
Oh, I said I could rise
From the harness of our goals
Here come the tears
But like always, I let them go
Just let them go
THOUSAND WAYS
Oh, I have lived for ages I’m a thousand turns of tides
I’m a thousand wakes of springtime and thousand infant cries
Oh, a thousand infant cries
I got sixteen hundred tigers now tied to silver strings
When they pull out in the pastures, oh the mighty harp will sing
Oh, the mighty harp will sing
But I’ll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all
But I’m the light in the middle of every man’s fall
I bend my arrows now in circles and I shoot around the hill
If I don’t get you in the morning, by the evening I sure will
By the evening I sure will
Because I’m the fire on the mountain you have lit up in your dream
But also water on the fountain you could send myself on me
You could send myself on me
Because I’ll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all
But I’m the light in the middle of every man’s fall
And no I never meant to say these words but yes you ought to know
That the dark in what I’ve always been, it will not ever go
No it will not ever go
And for so I lived a thousand years, a thousand turns of tides
Just a thousand leaves in autumn and a thousand ways to try
Oh, a thousand
It’s just a thousand ways to try
Ways to try
A LION’S HEART
There’s a palace a fallin’
There’s a smoke in the sky
There’s a boy running downhill to the lowlands tonight
And he’s catching the train to where he’s heard you have been
He’s a fool now among us, a dreamer within
Dreaming of you
And on that day there was snowfall in the street, yellow light
And they cleared the bill and rails just by those dark shimmer eyes
In that land there’s a winter
In that winter’s a day
In that day there’s a moment when it all goes your way
And you know it’s a lion’s heart
That will tumble and tear apart
When he’s coming down the hills for you
But can you still now remember who’s been hiding up there
Through his howling at twilight all his songs of despair?
Do you remember the caller of a black and white crime?
Well he lives by that memory and falls from his mind
And you know it’s a lion’s heart
That will tumble and tear apart
When he’s coming down the hills for you
Well he’ll walk in the city forever
Oh, walk in a time to be gone
Well there’s no real goodbye if you mean it
So I guess I’m forever alone
Now he’s a stranger among us, he will die in the park
Where he hides from the statues and the weather remarks
In that land there’s a winter
In that winter’s a day
In that day there’s a moment when it all goes away
And you know it’s a lion’s heart
That will tumble and tear apart
When it’s coming down the hills for you
KIDS ON THE RUN
Oh meet me when the morning fails on the fields of desire
Oh meet me when I lost my part in the choir of dusk
Where the promise to lead what is right
As we both know how fields will turn white
And know I will never speak of days
Cause I know you wont count them.
No we have never grown a day from the poison we shared
And we’re walking our crooked path home
But will we ever confess what we’ve done?
Guess we’re still kids on the run.
And no we will never be a part of the pictures once taken
When we’re feeding fire with the flames til no memories gone
And the cold sky will write us a song
But will we ever confess what we’ve done?
Guess we’re still kids on the run
And the reflections in their eyes
Sure could paint us as killers
Oh, I’ll be there.
And til the terror of our time
Could forgive us as lovers
Oh, lets break some hearts….
And no i will never speak of ways ’cause i know you wont try them
But all the weapons raining from the sky will be ours to embrace
And the cold sky will write us a song
But will we ever confess what we’ve done
Guess we’re still kids on the run.
