The Waiting 03:42
I write our name on the sand Just in case I forget All these stories that we lived by the edge of this town You always told me, my girl that rock n roll would save me but lately I feel that I’m losing all the strength you gave me Only the fools are waiting for the perfect star to fall to follow their dreams down I ease my feet in the sea With the city lights behind me I tell the moon that these days I don’t want to be myself When the sand turns to gold as my tears drown in the water’s cold I drink the last sip before I take my clothes off Thirsty of stories to tell We go deep into the sea
2.
I clasped you in my arms, oh my lover I knew the times ahead would bring us a second chance And what we said that night we will never tell Remains locked in our hearts, protected from the light of day And we liked to say we were the only ones that tamed our two souls on fire We were wild together, oh my lover We knew that every city kept secrets for us to find Singing our hearts out to Tom Petty songs In the dark of the sun, in a highway with no direction home, And we liked to say we were the only ones that tamed our two souls on fire I still believe in the things that we shared all those years I still sing all these songs that we thought were important And when they tell me that my eyes and my look just seem to be caught in the moon It’s probably that I’m thinking of you And how I used to tame you too
3.
In Hope 03:36
It all just ends I guess all the roads just lead me here The scars are all we got to prove how hard we tried To live as if we got nothing and no one else I have some names tattooed But the faces start to fade The songs are all we got, the same old reasons why We live and just keep trying everyday Beginning in an ending The words are not expressing The pain of what we left behind to feel complete again Just take my hand and rest for a little while I’m down on my knees And my feet bleed This boots are all we got to show how much we walked to find a place where we could live in hope again where we can finally live in peace
4.
Highway II 02:43
The highway’s never ending That’s what I’ve been waiting for all my life The highway that will take us further than we ever thought We take the highway to find ourselves or maybe just to get lost And thought it keeps raining we just keep driving The sun will shine somehow The highway that leads to nowhere and maybe everywhere we need to go We really don’t give a fuck See I don’t know why I keep waiting for a sign to calm my lonely soul and take me away from this hole But I want it all The dust behind us The nights behind us The day to arrive Sleeping in the backseat of the car Dreaming to find you in the next town
5.
I just want to know if they’re dead like us Or it’s just their costumes and their looks what makes me hate them as they pass by It’s a winter of renewed traditions And I’m waiting in the car while the steam protects my vision The kids have fun outside but their eyes show no ambition at all And we all caught a fleeting glimpse of the sea But we don’t know how to breathe underneath And we got nothing else but some wild dreams and coins to spend And we got no substitute for good and cheap substance abuse So let’s miss another ride under this silent rainy night And keep soaking t-shirts looking for the fun in self-destruction
6.
I think I’m losing an eye I got this pressure in my eyeball I think it’s going to explode any moment now Maybe it’s that I don’t want to see this anymore I need to put a patch between me and my life I’ve been putting back decisions for a long time Investing in arms industry And watching policemen beating people in the streets Turning a blind eye to everything I’ve been breathing to survive in this city And I believed I had a life working eight to five Pretending I was fine But that’s no longer contained, it’s reaching my right one There’s so many things I want to say before it’s too late So many songs are left for dead So many awful thoughts running through my head Some might say that’s the way that it’s supposed to be That’s the way and they’re supposed to lead Some might say that’s the way that we’re supposed to act Are you in or are you out? What’s the matter anyhow? I don’t know what’s the scary part in saying that I’m not proud to be a citizen I don’t feel fortunate to have a job because it doesn’t dignify me I’ve been moving out of habit
7.
Do you miss the times I held you tight When I fell asleep at night? The thrill of teaching me how to find The best way to survive in this damn town? I was your light and your moon The only one that made you shine and bloom How would it have been to carry me for so long? Were you free before I came in here? I’d like to know How come these years have passed so fast? It scares me that you think my heart turned stone cold When I learned to walk on my own with my first defeat in the harness of love Little angels don’t grow up but nothing stays the same, it’s kind of sad How would it have been to carry me for so long? Were you free before I came in here? I’d like to know I guess you felt scared knowing that the songs tortured me And your eyes sadly told I got it from him I’d like to feel enough love for anyone to abandon my soul And glide around like an angel and give my life like you did when you were young And now that the time is winning myself over I can’t help wondering how you were before Were you lonesome as is your son?
8.
Baby Tooth 04:27
You started to tremble And cried as a newborn Blood on the pillow Baby tooth, baby blue I found love in your fear I embraced your fragile soul Sucked the bourbon out of your veins Deep down, sweet grace I love the fear you make me feel Shorten the distance with our births The pleasure of unlearning The freedom of forgetting Origin as an ending I love the fear you make me feel Two little oceans in your eyes I learned again how to stay afloat I taught you to ride with just two wheels Your wound will heal I love the fear you make me feel In the dark of the sun
9.
We were born within the mist On the darkest winter night Walked those streets holding our breath Hoping to find something at the end that made us understand You ran your fingers through my hair More like a sister than like a wife “Promise me that when it’s over you’ll still be here Ready to catch me like you always did” Your eyes were all blind faith And my heart was so far gone In my head it was all wrong Your eyes were all blind faith In a revolution that never came Never came Your eyes were sad like mine And my heart was oh so cold In my head it was all wrong Your eyes were sad like mine And these things don’t ever change Don’t ever change
