Out of the mouths of Crowes.

Always drunk on Sunday
Paint a smile from ear to ear
Can’t you hear the sunrise crying?
Just a glimpse of what love could be.

Falling through liquid air with music everywhere
Find the beauty in the broken
Need no wing to set your mind to fly.

C-c-c-c-cold and kickin’
Hear the madam start bitchin’
See the noose still swinging
Don’t you wanna stare it cold?
I hide I seek and I find
Truth in a fable faith in a rhyme
If I believe all I see
I would hate to be around for the dawn.

For awhile I was kneeling in tears and powder
For as well I was strung out beyond my means
Set adrift on an ocean
Is the last place that love lives.

Take me home where I can dream my days away
I’m not running from anything
I’ve no past to hide
I’ve got no secrets haunting me
I just easy ride

Sleeping eyes sleep awhile
Too shy to hold in the rage
I got a head full of sermons and a mouth full of spiders
Feels so good it’s almost pain
Some like their water shallow
I like mine deep
Tied to the bottom with a noose around my feet

Sometimes a memory only sees what it wants to believe

What is a wasp without her sting?

I can’t seem to make hair nor hide of this
The scars I hide are now your business
Out your mouth a dictionary spouts about this and that
But it sounds like shit to me

I want to shine for you
I want to sparkle too
Just like a diamond cursed
If your rhythm ever falls out of time
You can bring it to me and I will make it alright.

I’m only halfway to everywhere
Windswept stars blink and smile
Horizon behind me no more pain

I see the forest for the trees

Learn or teach

I feel so alive today
That’s all that I wanted to say
I hope that it stays that way
If not, I will be okay.

A grace in a loveless time.
