Though they're tears round your heart
Your eyes are stone
Every bright star fades
When you come home
O the ground is wet with sorrow
It will always look this way
Everybody walk in brightness
Cause it's anew day
Anew day
Spring ever rose again
Will see the living end
When your heart is sick with wonder
At a long and lonely way
Everybody walk in brightness
Cause it's anew day
Anew day
Oh dream of mine
Not lost in sleep
Calm me now
With the love you don't give words to
And the love you give away
Everybody walk in brightness
Cause it's anew day
Anew day
Is it better to
Disappear
Than just to stand so near a hole?
When your own hand won't recognize
Your face
Makes you maybe go someplace
Tears round your heart
Stone in your eyes
Look at your change of heart
And look at the same skies
O the ground is wet with sorrow
It will always look this way
Everybody walk in brightness
It's anew day
Anew day
You and the rose again
Will be the living end
When your heart is sick with wonder
At the long and lonely way
Everybody walk in brightness
Cause it's anew day
Anew day (everybody walk in brightness)

Me for Real
03:08

To me
I can and I do
Do what I want
When I want to
Now I want to
To me
I made it up to you
What I said to you
Is not true
Now it is true
In my heart beating
Beating far
Into the far, far future
In the mud that's on the tire
On that sunny morning
What a day before
Riding bikes is so intense
The foreign word
That says
Me for real
It’s me
Still on my bike
Love is turning
Do it again
It's you that I like
Do you
You say it's not true
Do what I want
When I want to
Now I want to
In my heart beating
Beating far
Into the far, far future
Me for real
Me for real

You won’t forgive me and I don’t forgive
But God will
Fall to my knees, roll up my sleeves
Pray that he brings you back to me
He said, “O no, not you again, you’re not the only one
There’s only so much to go around”
Now you won’t forgive me and I don’t forgive
God won’t forgive me, I’m done
I look at my kid, he’s about 3 ft. 6
And I say, “I won’t betray you son”
You can lay down that cross, or whatever you’ve got
Be careful and kind, keep a clean mind
You won’t need to sign off on no prayer of mine
Don’t need to heal the sick or cure the blind
You’ll take your kicks, or feed the poor
Rescue whores, or go without, or twist and shout
Learn a trade, and be betrayed
Proselytize or demonize
Colonize or civilize
Show up late for every date, while half the world retaliates
We’re here for a good time, but not a long time, so have a good time
The sun don’t shine everyday
No Way
Merry Christmas

There's a Rugged Road
04:11

There's a rugged road on the prairie
Stretching all across the last frontier
There a stranger strives solitary
Blessed is the lonesome pioneer
Roll on, roll on, roll on
Night birds are flying
Come on, the light is gone
Hope's slowly dying
Tell me how you come riding through
Still surveying the miles yet to run
On the long and lonely road to kingdom come
He can blaze a trail, though the rumbling
Dims his guiding light to just a spark
When the hour is low, he comes tumbling
When the moon is high, he gives his heart
Roll on, roll on, roll on
Night birds are flying
Come on, the light is gone
Hope's slowly dying
Tell me how you come riding through
Gaining steady till this round is won
On the long and lonely road to kingdom come
People far below chasing pleasures
Offer him directions on the run
Prophets on the path offer treasures
Though she's mighty hungry she takes none
Roll on, roll on, roll on
Night birds are flying
Come on, the light is gone
Hope's slowly dying
Tell me how you come riding through
Blindly faithful but following none
On the long and lonely road to kingdom come
When the sun goes down at the right time
She comes winding through the purple haze
Just a feather's touch in the nighttime
But it'll color all my weary days
Shining finer than this earthly sun
On the ragged rugged road to kingdom come
On the ragged rugged road to kingdom come
