- 1989
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
All we could do
No shakes or coughs or burst relief
Or lists of all our things
Just minutes making minds
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
All we could do
But the making never made
- AKA M80 The Wolf
Through crooked teeth and mouthed up ties
They spit you up river just like all those lions
That walked the banks
They said, "Paint me that river
And would you only use blues
With a brilliant big black mouth and?
Lengths of pines that route the river through
- All My People
Deeper in and deeper still use your hands like eyes
Sift around the bottom row and soon will be your time
Keep your hands by your side,
Hands by your side,
Your hands by your side,
Your hands by your side (soon will be your time)
I've got my hands on it, I've gotta find a way
- All Your Light Drum
I'm just the shadow of a bigger man
Glowing brighter with each year I am
I was standing on a mountain
Just looking down (on you on you)
It's like my daddy said
You gotta use your head (my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
Yeah, no one said that I aim to please
- And I
"And I"
Some were reborn,
Some were simply shaken free,
And some were the colors
That took to the streets.
They found in those later years
- Atomic Man
You’re feeling tired I know three is a crowd but if I bring her on the
ready they’ll be fine for now
Man I can’t help it I’m just always in the middle leave the bottle in the
evening hang with demons on the weekend
Hook:
After you I don’t know what I believe in
- Bad, Bad Levi Brown
If I were a bear, I'd be the greatest of all,
With a speech like god so dark and foreboding.
Standing up tall from the top of that hill,
I’d growl up your fears from down below.
They’re restless spinning around,
Twisting hungry spitting tongues are restless
In the form of the god that’s speaking out...
Speaking out, speaking out...
- Bellies Are Full
Look at him working wearing his hands to the
Bone just to prove where he came from
The man's always worried, the man only worries
Himself if his pay and his bellies of mention
If we had the money, we'd climb our
Way back down somehow
And if we're in the garden don't you know that
Our bellies are full
- Cheer Up
I plant my feet in the dirt
My knuckles thrown from deep down, deep in the earth
Crush it down, let it burn
I spiked the punch with the weight of the world
This little laser beam
I'm gonna let it be
These broken dreams are fallen leaves
Flailing on the ground
- Colors
Ahhh Ahh ah
All the needy still need
And all the losers still lose
All the preachers still preach
But they ain't bringin no change
I'm not afraid to die
'Cause all these colors will change
- Created
I don't know why were created.
but i know that, i know we all die.
(know we all die)
Go pick up all your tools build a roof.
I'll pick up all mine and build one too.
I just do as i do.
Yea i do as i Please.
- Crystal Magic
I found the way out
But if I told you you'd be down
And I hate to get you down
When you're up so high
And I hate to get you down
When you're up so high
And I hate to get you down
And I hate to get you down
- Dawn
Because it's safe at the bottom. This lake
we know what your gonna do when you get there.
Sit down and listen.
We built that cold hearted fool and on that
shit he made money.
Motives lost in a heap because the deaf don't
deaf don't listen.
- Do You
do you, do you understand the people that we are?
and do you believe right from the start?
do you see that everybody needs?
do you feel when you're burning in that hell?
yeah, we'll make it here
did you find your fear?
did you find your fear?
- Elephants
onductor stood up and took role call,
He sent love and happiness into the next car.
"Are you in today?"
The bags are in and we plan no stops,
Just fearing sleeping in the box.
“Are you in today?”
Who built the love?
- everything you see
Everything you see
Everything you see
Can be measured, weighed, or gauged
Just like the one's who will keep you company
All of the things that you'll ever be
All of the things that you'll ever be
When all the kids count hallelujahs
- Feel It Still
Can't keep my hands to myself
Think I'll dust em off, put em back up on the shelf
In case my little baby girl is in need
Am I coming out of left field?
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks now
I been feeling it since 1966 now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
- Guns and Dogs
We took a trip down in '87
We were looking for a place where we don't fear heaven
Yeah, we got some guns, got some dogs
But just like them dogs, well those guns just get bigger.
Looking to the town to show us what they got,
We'll take it to the cabin and we'll show ya what we got.
We got space to do what you please.
- Guns... Guns... Guns
Where have all the people gone
Whose lives are no longer of use to them?
But this system bites habit forming,
But this single file is so contagious.
But black eyes breed gossip
These perverse and perversions alike.
Just like these perverse and perversions.
- Horse Warming Party
Born and raised that giant was a fighter, born and raised.
Mississippi, born and raised.
On that canvas, born and raised.
Dirty streets, born and raised.
The people stood up to wave those white flags,
The devil had died, devil had died, the devil died.
Born and raised through the valley, born and raised.
- Just A Fool
like everyone around, he claimed to see
and he was beautiful, but not like me
he saw everything, everyone all around me
still he stood up really tall
and he looked down below
he saw many people, many things he'd never seen before
but he was just a fool
and that's all he'd ever be
- Lovers In Love
crawl from the fire
into the pan
what we don't need
hell will demand
higher, higher, higher, higher
higher, higher, higher, higher
i'm not in need
therefore don't demand
- Modern Jesus
Come on in
Take a seat next to me
You know we got
We got what you need
We may be liars
Preachin' to choirs
But we can
- Mornings
Mornings go best with the sunrise,
The sunrise I used to see
But will never see now,
Even if I was waiting, we would just build it all up,
We'd look around until we find, we find...
The people found the mountain,
Climbed up from that hole in the ground
- Never Pleased
No I'm not jesus, but I'm more than a man
I'll never grow older, lonely or sad
Still I'm never pleased
From the corners until
I wake up walking as careful can be
Careful to miss out on all that I see
Just be common like I
- Noise Polution
[Verse 1: John Gourley]
Hello, I'm, hello, I'm, hello, I'm
Hello, I'm introducing
Hello, I'm introducing
Live leak the revolution
Go stream it now on demand
New world distribution
Let's make low resolutions
- Number one
[Intro: Richie Haven]
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
- Oh Boy
Oh boy, can you see the world is new?
Tell me, have you ever seen the sky so blue?
On your ride alone, like a lost balloon, far from everyone you knew
Did you feel so small?
Did you feel so small?
And you're never lonely
Because you're never truly on your own
- Once Was One
Of all us he had to know he'd never grow
He'd never climb he'd never love like the love I know
When I was two and he was ten they carried me
Through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas
Once was born of light like you
Once was one but now am two
When I was born of love like you
- Open Wide
open wide, eyes
i've got to tell you
calculating, captivating lies
like our heads have been swimming
and swirling
for so long
wide eyes
i've got to tell you
- People Say
Save me,
I can't be saved,
I won't.
I'm a president's son,
I don't need no soul.
All the soldiers say
"It'll be alright,
- Purple Yellow Red and Blue
"Purple Yellow Red And Blue"
[Chorus]
All I
Wanna do is
Live in ectascy
I know what's best for me
I can't help it
- Shade
Claims, they crawled from those clouds
And over mountains cried
Into the streams, where they ran the length of
Past and time that called out
With their hands beside you
As all the people shouted
Up to the northern territories
My, they glowed like a bug
- Share With Me The Sun
Share with me the sun
You forget sometimes it's yours
Can't you see you're not the only one
The doors all lead outside
Feel it soak into your mind
Can't you see you're not the only one
Well my head, it gets so tired
- Sleep Forever
As I finally meet my end
I won't be scared, I won't defend
The things I've done
I don't need him like you do
I don't fear him like you do
As the world revolves the sun
I hope the light that I become can
- Sleeping Sleepers Sleep
Shave our heads
Strip our clothes
Burn them books but
The mind still grows
A sheltered mind with
Fears of rings
Fear of time
And missing links
- So American
if pain was a color to paint on you
your heart would be the color blue
it would be a gradient from there till your body met your hair
which remained a silver hue
you are the one they call jesus christ
didn't know no rock n roll
just a mission and a gun to paint rainbows in vietnam
and a heart that always told you there's a madness in us all
- so young
[1st verse: John Gourley]
So young, just begun
Don't need to live to know
What I've become
When ya wake up
Still in your make up
You'll make it home just
Fine without breaking down
- Some Men
Some men search to find their own some men will never find someone some men are searching for the people in the sky and some men live in space and time some men, some will surely die some men live in the past and end some men some will only cry everyone but most we watched him grow from a little person and as he grew to a bigger person he stood above the people all these little people and everyone below they were just little people some men never find a home some men live alone and die everyone but most will find it in the end a better place and things to call their own no we're never gonna change never gonna change never gonna change never gonna change some men some will fade away some men some will surely die everyone but most some men some will never try some men live alone in time everyone but most everyone but most everyone but most will find it in the end a better place and things to call their own everyone but most will find it in the end a better place and things to call their own we watched him grow to a bigger person and as he grew to a giant person he stood above the clouds on all these little people and as we looked above we were just little people
- Stables And Chairs
I met a face with ring rounded pocket eyes
That shaped folded banks inside
As he shivered out thoughts
They went: "golden and pale wind whispers breathe New Orleans"
Through basements and racetracks met hollowed out from stretching mouths
All these thoughts were rolled onto needles
They spilled from heads tumble like apples fell into the sky,
- Sugar Cinnamon
Did you ever see anyone? (Sleeping on the streets)
Did you ever know anyone? (Sleeping on the streets)
Slip out your arrows in tongues (oh i, I'll dance on that cross)
Speech trial come and lead my palms (sleeping on the streets)
Soil pressed to the knees and below (sleeping on the streets)
Slip out your arrows in tongues (oh i, I'll dance on that cross)
'Cause standing tall will make you grow (sleeping on the streets)
But only sharp eyes ever know (sleeping on the streets)
- The Sun
If you look real high you just might find
Sitting in the stars, glistening, glistening
Waiting for the band to come
Just waiting for that man to come.
Oh, I wonder...
Sleep on down from the sun to climb,
Down to earth and down to things like time,
- Tommy
Tommy was a preacher’s son,
Now he's running through the jungle, "yes sir!"
Fingers cold and fire,
When you get so tired and we're so tired.
Lazing back in this desert,
Waitin’ for that sunny day.
Tommy was a preacher’s son,
- Waiter
Under blankets these hills cover neatly
We'll take steps to make sure our failures are hidden
But it's hard when our voices echo over ripples?
That form on the lakes and the edges they prey on we'll shine shine shine
Swim around the lake
Hoping like hell we'll find shelter in
Coal mines incubating lies fathers and families,
- When The War Ends
shed me from the universe
carry me from lies
it's been beautiful to find this world
and i'm sure it will when it ends
step into the corners
the darker, colder corners fit best
hang me from the ceilings
little mobile constellation lights
- Work All Day
If you work all day you keep the rhythm through the night,
If you work all night you keep the rhythm through the day,
If you sell that soul you'll be burning up right,
If you ain't got no soul, that's fine, alright.
All I've ever known is true.
Pick it up, pack it up, put it in a bag,
Stack it up like cinnamon, we'll get it real fast,
