There's a fogging on my window pane as evenings rolling in Cigar smoke and dirty joke rise up above the din The one good thing about mediocre people's they're always at their best But low brow company ain't so bad when low brow companies all you've had Oo Lord The time has come when we can take our place in the center of the sun Alabaster Killing moon On the first of June The clouds on the edge of our skyline are really above Tennessee I always thought if I held you real close you'd stay right here with me But the lingering lights of our home town they fade in to the night That one horse towns corona it escapes us in our flight Oo lord The time has come when we can take our place in the center of the sun Alabaster Killing moon On the first of June

We Dasein are all nonplussed that we are all like Sysiphus To us the meaning comes in strong though meaningless at best A florid torrid diamond forged in fire by your waking life and though the world is rife with pain you cast a furtive glance towards the meaning you would hope to achieve Hold those cards inside your sleeve my friend don't show You can paint yourself and let the others paint you too for all the worth we have accomplished there are still great things to do so roll your rock up on the hillside just as far as you can go and as your lungs pull in from pushing you'll look back on those below and see the meaning you had hoped to achieve pull those cards out of your sleeve my friend and show

Lorem Ipsum 02:40
Once more into the breach my friend Once more into the breach Once again it's out of reach my friend Once again it's out of reach See you're skin slide over bone Your knuckles white and worn out from the days of labor Dirt under you fingernails as you go home Ours is not to reason why my friend Ours is not to reason why Ours is but to do and die my friend Ours is but to do and die See you're skin slide over bone Your knuckles white and worn out from the days of labor Dirt under you fingernails as you go home

Summersweat 02:53
Things that come in threes You, deceit, and me my love but maybe I still wait for you maybe I still wait for you Cracks in good concrete Flaws and failings so discrete but maybe I still wait for you maybe I still wait for you Summer sweat stings in our eyes This should come as no surprise to you Nothing for me here Ought'a pack my things and disappear but maybe I still wait for you maybe I still wait for you Summer sweat stings in our eyes This should come as no surprise to you

Slater Mill 05:03
Winter brought us snow in banks along the window sill Your breath fogged up the glass we'd let our fingers feel the thrill The bite of frost has gone but I can feel December still Algid boot steps on the hardened ground on down to Slater Mill and you told me you could taste the Holy Ghost upon your tongue and you told me you could taste the Holy Ghost We were merely children then and maybe we still are Rolling through the rushes in the back of daddy's car The summer song of Sparrows and the heady smell of tar and we were drinking warm rye whiskey from a broken mason jar and you told me you could taste the Holy Ghost upon your tongue and you told me you could taste the Holy Ghost and you left with the autumn leaves amber, brass, and burgundy and gold How I loved you in July although I knew you wouldn't stay How I know you're better off because this town is in decay and How the sentiments I've held have only gotten in the way but How I wish you'd see your way to come back home to me one day To tell me you can taste the Holy Ghost upon your tongue To tell me you can taste the Holy Ghost
