Two turtledoves
In the full flush of love
Left for the city alone
Got their feathers ruffled
So they left their home
Punch drunk on the Fourth of July
Preaching and weaving under a darkening sky
Hands in the pockets of my jeans
This rabbit's foot has lost its charm it seems
This bird just can't be happy enough without love
My stand is that I wanted to be a part of
This family that your dreams have become
But its too much
How did I make that woman cry?
I wasn't myself on that Fourth of July
And where did I put my keys?
I'm spinning, I'm spitting off of the pavement like steam
This bird just can't be happy enough without love
Unhappy and sober and I have to go
Now I'll go

From here I can see stars
Lifting through the dark
Countless flying souls
Returning to their homes
When my time is closing in
And I am breathing my last breath
I'll be looking toward the light
At the people that have left
Will you be there?
The universe beneath our feet
Playing hide and seek with the living
Will you be there?
It's all I've ever wanted
Secrets of the world
And the questions that plague us
And revealed to you spirit
Once was broken now is mending
Here and now, there and here we can see
Everything we want, we are free
There's a joy that can be found
If we leave our bodies now

Invisible Hands

What is real and what is not
Things remembered, things forgot
I am not here, I am a ghost
The faded reminder of a kindness lost
Passing through me, taking from me
Every once of evergy flowing through me
I am not here, I am a ghost
The faded reminder of a kindness lost
Will you please let me live or die
I can no longer stand
Invisible hands seen invisible eyes
Feeling less of a person these days
Take what you will, it's me that you kill
With your selfish ways

Again, I did not see you
Days pass and I'm wondering
Where do you hide away
I can look, but I cannot see
Your house on the corner
Is where you sleep with
Nobody to hold in your arms
Too long I've been lonely
Is there anything that I can do for you now
Now, when you look around
You will see that I'm here for you
Let your heart be you guide
Let it help you decide, you will figure out
Where do you feel at home, and
Where do you find comfort, when you're all alone
Hopelessy wanting more
I can't have what I cannot see
And it's all because of me

Everybody Gets Fucked Up

When the sun comes up over the high school
When the sun comes up over the jail
The sun comes up at the Onion Cellar
The flies all hatch and their bodies begin to swell
The more I see the more feel
We're going to get a bad surprise
If everybody gets fucked up
Then we can be ourselves tonight
If the mood ain't right at the high school
And the black clouds are starting to swell
If the mood ain't right at the bar tonight
We'll have to learn to tuck in ourselves
The more I see the more feel
That the sun may never rise
When everybody gets fucked up
Then they get a meanness in their eyes
The more I see the more feel
We're going to get a bad surprise
Everybody gets fucked up
And soon they'll be trying to get inside
