HOLIDAY HILL
I used to tumble down Holiday Hill
Back when you loved me a still
Threw the phone away
The paper and the ink and all the pens
Kept the shovel by my side
For when the night begins
And the poison kicks in
I used to live on Holiday Hill
And we would take those sweet sugar pills
Now the mirror made a joke
The table took the plate
Calendar in the corner says I’ve got to wait
To earn my way back in again
Oooh again
OH OH
Don’t let us go
OH OH
Don’t let us fade away
OH OH
Wherever you go…
you’ll never get away

WHITE SANDS
I found some white sand from the garden
Could be a life stretched too far
And there was white sand in the spaces
Between the seats of our car
And there was white sand spread on the wheel
And in the cracks of that old leather
And the I finally read that letter
I knew where I shouldn’t be
Do you wanna go out dancing one more time?
Or do you feel like it owns you?
I hope and I pray
That there’s another way I can touch you
White Sand, I wanna know you!
I found some white sand out on the green
Between the lemon trees
And there was white sand on the edges
Of those dirty magazines
Do you wanna go out dancing one more time?
Or do you feel like it owns you?
I hope and I pray
That there’s another way I can touch you
White Sand, I wanna know you!

CANDY FIGHT
Chasing summer storms on my own
Follow the path of lightning to my bones
When I’m home, it just might fade away
What ends in time is all well, so they say.
And then to my surprise it’s up in flame
And this fire in the wires can’t be explained
When a strangers hand is your best friend
Some love is worth living over again
Push it out till the heartstrings break!
Push it out for heaven’s sake!
I couldn’t keep such a heavy grace
Open eyes, it’s the middle of the night
Kicking it out like a candy fight
There was no other hiding place
Guided by the light from her spark
Hearing her footsteps softly in the dark
And every word rings out to be true
And every footsteps seems to lead me back to you
Push it out till the heartstrings break!
Push it out for heaven’s sake!
I couldn’t keep such a heavy grace
My eyes are open in the middle of the night
Kicking it out like a candy fight
There was no other hiding place
Waking, reeling, under that feeling
Broke through the ceiling and came right down on me
Worry, waiting…
Yet somehow taking every broken memory out to the edge of the road
Out to the edge of the road.

JUDGEMENT DAY
Spent the bitter years in a field of distortion
I beat up my mom and my dad almost every night.
Yes, I’m fighting to belong; But I’m fading..
Into that grey misty haze that’s waiting…
Will I take that first step when she calls?
I should stand up straight and tall on Judgment Day.
My home’s in the dump..that’s where I’m keeping
Keeping all my heads in a row and my hearts in a box
Yes I fooled myself out of believing
Of that damned misanthropic feeling
Will I take that first step when she calls?
My bones will turn to ash on Judgment Day.
Yes I fooled myself out of believing
Of that damned misanthropic feeling
Will these old bones finally break
Or is there one more season to steal and to take…
All the love
I could make….

FAITH IN YOU
Hey baby soldier
Semper Fi
Will you look into my eye?
I have faith in you … I have faith in you.
In the trenches
Digging deep
Look away as I’m weeping
I have faith in you … I have faith in you.
Now I’ll try not to hurt you
(I won’t try too hard)
And I swear I never have wandered far from your side.
Wind on the wire
Message strong
Why do you make me wait so long?
Fingers straining
Through the sieve
Remind me again of your dreaming
The one I took from you… the one I …
Now I’ll try not to hurt you
(I won’t try too hard)
And I swear I never have wandered far from your side.
Hey baby soldier
Gather ‘round
They burned it to the ground
But… I have faith in you … I still have faith in you.
Call the troops
start the song
Now light the fuse to that bomb.
I have faith in you … I have faith in you.

CHANCES
No matter where you take me, it never goes away
I was born to finally fade out of the way
And young wishes aching for a drifter’s sympathy
But it’s nothing that you pompous pricks can see.
I got one foot on the altar … with ashes in my hand
Hope can conspire and know that you’ll understand
When the torn curtain falls
Away for certain..
All I see now is the darkest of dawn
‘Cause I know all my chances are gone.
A blade to the shoulder and blood on our flag
But I know that it’s better than what we had
A lamb to there slaughter - now look what we’ve done
Untie the beast - let it off to run
I’m gonna wait here in the garden just to see if you appear
Some holy spirit once he whispered in my ear
When the torn curtain falls
Away for certain..
All I see now is the darkest of dawn
‘Cause I know all my chances are gone.
In this life
Through the days
Ribbons wasted away
And the sound keeps tearing through
Wire tight ~ Parasite
Find your face in the night
And so we crave another round.
The snake has it’s rattle; the bull has it’s horn
And I swear we’ve been kissed by both before
I’m gonna wait here in the garden just to see if you appear
And three holy spirits they whispered in my ear
When the torn curtain falls
Away for certain..
All I feel now is the darkest of dawn
‘Cause I know all my chances are gone.

HEAVEN’S HOLE
I’m wanna live just long enough to dread
I’m gonna take my balls and smash them right into the circuits
And finally feel a charge in what’s left of me !
You know my blood boils down to gasoline
My soul’s too savage to be clean
And love is sacred…
But the time that it’s taken leaves me cold…
And I’m falling down my way to Heaven’s Hole.
The world is sticking those pins right where it hurts
I’ve seen one thousand eyes just waiting behind the curtain
and now I’m kicking like hell right through the dirt
You know my blood boils down to gasoline
My soul’s too savage to be clean
And love is sacred…
But the time that it’s taken leaves me cold…
And I’m falling down my way to Heaven’s Hole.
It’s the same…
You were right
It’s the same thing
EVERY NIGHT.
You know my blood boils down to gasoline
My soul’s too savage to be clean
And love is sacred…
But the time that it’s taken leaves me cold…
And I’m falling down my way to Heaven’s Hole.

HARDCORE KID
There were nights that we lived and breathed through the ghosts of those old LP’s
We could see ourselves in the shadow and the shape.
I’ll paint your name on the side of a bus…hardcore kid: you’re one of us
There’s a hole in your head but you’re bound to be ok.
All my friends are dead and gone … buried by the past
Seems like I’m the only one still having a blast
And I guess I still grew up to be a hardcore kid.
I heard Donny’s getting out of jail tonight; so we’re meeting by the firelight
Bring your box, your bass, and my board
We’re hanging out and we’re playin’ tapes… Felicia says she’s late.
Gonna have a party right now just to piss off the landlord.
All my friends are dead and gone … buried by the past
Seems like I’m the only one still having a blast
And I guess I still grew up to be a hardcore kid.
Stain your fingers dye your hair…
Well, my dad..he just ain’t there.
And you’re my friend now .. you’re all I got.
So I’ll stare down the dream with you.
Less than zero so there’s nothing to lose.
Spend a lifetime following the busted story of youth.
All my friends are dead and gone … buried by the past
Seems like I’m the only one still having a blast
And I guess I still grew up to be a hardcore kid.

DUST ON THE BONE
Less than heaven ~ lovers hell
I painted out the light
But the dawn is getting close again
Hands are heavy, fingers tight
there’s wire in my gut
But I still ain’t had enough of it
And we go
Into the spring
I feel broken, baby
Is this really me?
And I know…
Hope against hoping that..
That you’ll see the blood on there breeze
Or the knife stuck in my knees
Or the cracks inside our home
Or the dust….
The dust on the bone.
Secrets told through lovers lips
Sealed until they’ve split
And no one knows what’s haunting you
Ages after, prayers fought
I prayed for you last night
But the wolf inside was calling you
And we go
Into the spring
I feel broken, baby
Is this really me?
And I know…
Hope against hoping that..
That you’ll see the blood on there breeze
Or the knife stuck in my knees
Or the cracks inside our home
Or the dust….
The dust on the bone.
