- Always on Sunday 07 - Back in the bottle
always on sunday,
i think about the "used-to be's",
the "where am i's", my fantasies.
always on sunday, i think about you and i
in the woods side-by-side.
the autumn air. a hay ride.
always on sunday, i think about my boys
- Andy climb down 11 - Back in the bottle
smoking cigars,
limousines, fancy cars,
conversations without any sound,
stolis on the rocks,
a glance at a gucci watch;
you'd better make it another round.
two new ceos, both gigolos,
- Better homes and warmer days 08 - Marathon
Midnight sounds... Rugged rain...
Cabs are scarce... Pensive again...
Don't you ever feel afraid?
Don't you ever want to live a better way?
And now, it's clearer than before
The answer's through the door of better homes and warmer days
Yellow light... Almost June...
Helpless night... Quarantine the moon...
- Ceilings in the sky 09 - Marathon
I could reach my limit and not know what's best to do
Where the streets cross avenues and two lives are forced to choose
My mind could will me through it, but my heart would search for you
Yeah, my heart would search for you and my mind I'll have to lose
I'm climbing up skyscrapers to a ceiling in the sky
So appealing is the high
Leave the feeling where it lies where it lies
Oh I owe the City birthday cake and "Thank You" cards are due
- Cindy
you can't keep me from talking.
you can't keep me from praising you when you're around.
and i won't make you a goddess.
won't make me a martyr.
it's never worked before.
and you, you loved me with your eyes, cindy.
you, you held me with your voice.
- Goodnight song 11 - Marathon
In a night I'll turn this all around
I'll shut the light and I'll tune out every sound
What's in store won't anymore be on my mind
I'll say goodnight and I'll leave this world behind
Goodnight song I guess the stars always had meaning
Goodnight song I guess some answers come from dreaming
In a night I'll see who I've become
Some fears remain and some I've overcome
- Someone
someone's late. i'll wait.
in time, time will show.
someone's cashed in. chances are where chips fall.
someone's sunset is someone's moonrise.
someone's red lips speak to someone's blue eyes.
and some may run. and some know fear.
and some wade in a while and let the murky waters clear.
- Summer song
summer's always burning on the beach beside my brothers,
summer's always sitting out to eat while at my mother's.
summer always breaks for G&Ts.
summer's always snaggin' on a rock fishing for 'keepers,'
summer's always louder than the city with its peepers.
summer always find a girl for me.
summer with my legs too white
summer with trunks too tight
- To The Woman
I was lonely and I was tired and I was drifting, drifting away.
I was half lit and just about losing it .
I was lost and looking till I heard you say,
"Thanks for coming" and "glad to meet you" and
"have a good time" and "the drinks are that way."
Then my heart grew and I knew just what to do and my words were with me.
They flowed that day.
- Wintertime
wintertime.
slush-filled shoes await the subway line.
and i catch chills down my spine.
traffic cops sip coffee and fall behind.
wintertime.
she longs to chill me out with undershine.
she drowns my spirit with her salty wine.
