lyrics

All In Your Head


verse
Always knew it'd be this way
something to do and something to say
that I didn't say

Suffocate the bedroom door ..the
ghosts of dreams left long ago
the weight of home

chorus
is it true what they say
true what they say ..is it
true what they say
true what they say ..it's

All in your head
all in your head ..is it
true what they say ..it's
all in your head

verse
Always feel the fear this way
something to burn and something to save
that I didn't save

toss the heart to fill the chest ..in
debt to treasures and paid in unrest
all you love best

chorus 
is it true what they say 
true what they say ..is it 
true what they say 
true what they say ..it's 

All in your head 
all in your head ..is it 
true what they say ..it's 
all in your head

true what they say ..is it
true what they say ..is it
true what they say

Arcadia

 
verse 
There's a hole in the night ..where 
dreams fall through  ..there's a 
hole in the dream   ..for 
you to slip through 
Arcadia 

The table's set ..for 
gods of men  ..in 
fields of golden wheat 
swaying in the the wind 
Arcadia 

chorus 
Golden fire and crimson desire 
all of the answers are in your hands 
heart's on fire, scream with the choir 
from your feet to your head 

Dissolved and collapsing, bathed in your ashes 
from bonds you've freed yourself 
dream by the fire if you desire 
Arcadia 

verse 
Luring quiet 
intoxicating fire light 
sweet black wine 
dripping from the vines 
Arcadia 

A whisper at your nape 
a breath abated ..to 
float on its wake ..an 
ember on heat haze 
Arcadia 

chorus  
Golden fire and crimson desire  
all of the answers are in your hands  
heart's on fire, scream with the choir  
from your feet to your head  

Dissolved and collapsing, bathed in your ashes  
from bonds you've freed yourself  
dream by the fire if you desire  
Arcadia 

bridge 
Gardens and Edens, gods dapper and preening for curtain calls 
lavished in roses and blood from the sacrificed goat rituals 
Arcadia 
Find yourself dancing 'round grottos and fields filled with shepherds of gold  ..an 
echo of syrinx songs played from pools filled with the blush of the moon 
Arcadia 

chorus  
Golden fire and crimson desire  
all of the answers are in your hands  
heart's on fire, scream with the choir  
from your feet to your head  

Dissolved and collapsing, bathed in your ashes  
from bonds you've freed yourself  
dream by the fire if you desire  
Arcadia

bigger louder faster

 

verse
Follow me
through the pines, marsh, and weeds
wear your heart on your sleeve
to the cypress tree

with shovels armed
shin deep in stagnate pond
fractured light through swaying palms
we're planting our alms

chorus
standing by
the killing of beauty

verse
underneath
the strobing orange glow of street-
lights at seventy
miles per hour

speeding through
the once was and coming soons ..the
wasted land of human zoos
the numbing repeat

chorus
standing by
the killing of beauty

bridge
Beyond obscenities and excuses
shortsighted gains and acceptable losses
louder, bigger, faster, louder
bigger, faster, louder, bigger
faster, louder, bigger, faster 

verse
this priceless time
moonlight through the shadowed pines
before profit comes with axes to grind
while I'm

chorus
Standing by
the killing of beauty

Lay Yourself Down

 

verse
Lay yourself down in the path of the hurricane
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other
it always starts with the rain

Moves through you so fast you'll never have to lift the weight
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other
of everything that's broken

chorus
All of your cares will be blown away

verse
Found yourself in the road with all your world gone
darkness lifted with no hope to move on
the day always starts with the dawn

 one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other

The day always starts with the dawn

chorus
all your cares will be blown away
all your cares will be blown away

verse
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other
one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other

The day always starts with the dawn

one foot, one foot, one foot in front of the other

lies that i wanted to hear

 

verse
Was the ever a night when we lost our minds
blinded our souls and crossed the great divide
was there ever a night when wee lost our minds

You know, she came to my door and she said my name?
she said I had a spell over you, but she loved you all the same
she came to my door and she cursed my name

chorus
We were shadows
nothing in the world was real
we were ghosts alone
floating in tabacco fields

I knew they were lies
but they were lies that I wanted to hear
but the truth is
she was a whisper I could feel

Don't cry Joleen
those are someone else's tears

verse
Was there ever a time to do this right
that first drink when I saw the longing in your eyes
was there ever a way to do this right

chorus
We were shadows
nothing in the world was real
we were ghosts alone
floating in tabacco fields

I knew they were lies
but they were lies that I wanted to hear
but the truth is
she was a whisper I could feel

Oh, Joleen
those are someone else's tears

bridge
Caroline, I'll tell you the truth
that man's lied to me and he's lied to you

verse
I ain't all good and I ain't all bad
now I'm looking at you and I can't look back
I'll leave'im where you found him, by the railroad tracks

chorus
We were shadows
nothing in the world was real
we were ghosts alone
floating in tabacco fields

I knew they were lies
but they were lies that I wanted to hear
but the truth is
she was a whisper I could feel

Don't cry Joleen
those are someone else's tears

Tools to be lost

 

verse
Deviant and holy, devine yet solely
built for the animal, water and mineral
create to conquer, blood on the alter
blood on the tracks, the coming attack
to fight for or fly from, the caveman behind the gun
the son and the father, to the seed and the sun
we were given the tools to be lost before we'd begun

chorus
In the back of your mind
we've come to find
the things that you hide
living your lie
the life you rewrite
open wide

verse
Existence is lonely, close yet only
in this head alone, this body could be a stone
lead to a god's words, prayed to but never heard
skipped on the waves with the lightness of faith
eventually you sink down. under the burden of proof do you drown?
with logic and wonder, so overwhelmed
we've been given the tools to be lost and found

chorus
In the back of your mind
we've come to find
the things that you hide
living your lie
the life you rewrite
open wide

outro
In the back of your mind
the things that you hide
living your lie open wide

Train Song

 

verse
This train has a long way to go
it was crowded but now I'm mostly alone
This train is coming up against the snow
will it stay on track I do not know
train's got a long way to go

chorus
I'm up so high above the ground
nothing short of terrified
oh but the view is nice around
the spot I'll land on if I fall tonight

verse
This train, it left so much behind
I'll never see again or cross my mind
This train will go a million miles
across terrain that swallows deep and opens wide
I'll be on this train a while

chorus
I'm up so high above the ground
nothing short of terrified
oh but the view is nice around 
the spot I'll land on if I fall tonight

bridge
Over water, under ground
over ground and under water
I'm still running on

verse
This train has windows all the way
so I can see the fields and fields of hay
This train climbs slower up the hill
but coming down is fast and faster still
I'll be on this train until

chorus
I'm up so high above the ground
nothing short of terrified
oh but the view is nice around 
the spot I'll land on if I fall tonight

outro
underground, over ground, and underwater
over water, underground, over ground and underwater
over water, underground, over ground and under water
over water, underground, over ground and under water
over water, underground, through he mountains in the sea
over water, underground, rolling on is where I'll be
