[Music & lyrics by D. Gildenlow]. . I thought I'd seen hell. Thought I knew it all. Now I know too well. Hell is to wake up. But it makes all the difference.
On the hottest night of the year. Lying in a patch of rouge rhododendrons. . A bottle of whisky under my arm. Trying to count a sky full of stars. I dream of order, I dream of fleets.
Can we get real. For a moment. You're my one and only friend. Watch the sun set. From your sedan. Let your hand. Rest on mine. . I've lived in every town,.
Who got the beat this time?. Who gonna beat me down?. Tell it, tell it. Who got the beat this time?. Keep it hundred. . Whatcha' gonna show me fam?. Whatcha gonna show me bro?.
Fetch down the fiddle, rosin up the bow. Don't play me nothing on the radio. Don't make me remember the alamo. I'm feeling like a little bit of cotton eyed joe.
Mama knows and papa knows. That rock 'n roll is music now. Baby's been cutting his teeth on. Bo diddley's, I'm a man, man. Listen to the wolfman howl.
We are riding on a railroad, singing some else's song. Forever standing by the cross road.. Take a side and step along.. We are sailing away on a river to the sea..
I was raised up family. Man I'm glad I'm on my own. I was raised up family. Man I'm glad I'm on my own. I mean, God bless the child. That can learn to live alone, yeah.
What good is that happy lie. All you wanted from the start was to cry. . It looks like another fall. Your good friends they don't seem to help at all.
I kissed your sweet lips. I floated so high. Your eyes looked at mine. The world froze in time. What is this feeling?. I am on cloud nine. Guess. I'm still reeling.
I kissed your sweet lips. I floated so high. Your eyes looked at mine. The world froze in time. What is this feeling?. I am on cloud nine. Guess. I'm still reeling.
friend swallow hard and breath deep blur the lines. where rhythm dies. you can tell the lies that. we've swallowed by the time it took to choke. them down. the wrists have been slit and stiched.
Pretty girls come from the ugliest places. You come from the worst of them all. Heart-breakers like you are hard to erase. You lift me up just so I fall.
You don't need to ask me if I'll be your friend.. I am. I am.. You don't need to ask me if I'm sure my friend.. I am.. I am your friend,. You must remember me..
We won't be sleeping on our own tonight. The star that guides us. Is still shining bright. And in the darkness. There will always be a light. I think I know now.
As you were, like a child. Innocent and running wild. And now you're old and you're grey-haired. Your dead-eyed stare. You're running scared. . When you were young the fires spread.
