Kelsey to Timbuktu
03:45

She knows where to go, her bags are packed
She knows what to say ‘cause she’ll know who to ask
Her book at her side, her life is line
She’s pacing the streets in the heat of the time
She’s got time
She’s got you
You got her
Her got you
She can flee to Timbuktu
And I suppose that I could too
I’m praying for words, I’m praying for song
I’m needing a guide to get along
With the sinners, the winners, the midnight dinners
And the callers, the fallers, the some street hollers
The cold, the old, the poor and the gold
The wisdom, the isms, the nights he’s risen
I got time
I got you
You got me
Me got you
Can say what you will, yeah
You will what you say
You needed to make your prayer today
So what do you need, and mean what you want
And get out of bed and face the front
With the sinners, the winners, the midnight dinners
And the callers, the fallers, the some street hollers
The cold, the old, the poor and the gold
The wisdom, the isms, the nights he’s risen
I got time
I got you
You got me
Me got you
And I know, and owe ‘em, and love to show ‘em
And I meant to, so thank you
For all these things like stars and Mars and marbles and cars
And pinks and links and babies that stink
You got time
You got him
He got you
You got he
With the sinners, the winners, the midnight dinners
And the callers, the fallers, the some street hollers
The cold, the old, the poor and the gold
The wisdom, the isms, the nights he’s risen
And I got time
Kelsey
And me
And you

Highway Sun
03:37
|

Waiting by the chapel
Pointing toward the ocean
Keeping it in rhythm
All the wheels in motion
Highway sun, on the run
Day fades night til morning light
Piecing it together
Releasing all the leather
Burning up some rubber
Better than each other
Highway sun, on the run
Day fades night til morning light
Needing all the pit stops
Feeling all the time clock
Stops only killing
What the deserts healing
Highway sun, on the run
Day fades night til morning light
I’ll hear it at the ocean
I’ll find it in the morning
The beaches are calling
The road stops the stalling
Highway sun, on the run
Day fades night til morning light
Highway sun, on the run
Day fades night til morning light

Traces on Paper
04:34
|

Someone disguise the sky
To look like all the rest
The moon, tides, sunrise
Depleted at the best
Yellow, greens and reds
Kings and queens, the press
Turn 'em all brown instead
Bear a single head
I don't know how the story goes
Wearing someone else's clothes
Put on this tie and here's your name
Someone out there they want us all the same
The looks, the books, the talk
Even the way we walk
The shoes, the job, the stare
The laugh, the goals, the hair
Preach to change, to change
Always stay the same
Someone there to blame
There's pain because of change
I don't know how the story goes
Wearing someone else's clothes
Put on this tie and here's your name
Someone out there they want us all the same
Shots on the side all night
Only way to fight
Saddest way to go
In the eyes it shows
Give up, give up, OK
Forget it I'll pass, good day
Let us stay the same
I will pray for change
I don't know how the story goes
Wearing someone else's clothes
Put on this tie and here's your name
Someone out there they want us all the same
Traces on paper are all that's left
Men and women just left a sketch
I don't know how the story goes
Wearing someone else's clothes
Put on this tie and here's your name
Someone out there they want us all the same
They're the same
They're the same
They're the same
The same
I don't know how the story goes
Wearing someone else's clothes
Put on this tie and here's your name
Someone out there they want us all the same
They're the same
They're the same
They're the same
The same

I'm Here
05:25
|

Bang, the flag is out
The light is green
I released her from, from my dreams
This is it, it's shoot or miss
She has to be the one definitely
I thought it right, we had our nights
But lessons hide behind those eyes
So she cried and I denied
That our love was just a lie
She made me come, she made me run
She made me realize what I hate
Now she's gone, I got it wrong
I want to drive into a lake
I know my heart won't break
If I just cut it out immediately
And you're telling me it's just a plan
I am here make me understand
Yield, I must rebuild
Try not to feel but she can tear me like a peel
So I cried, and she denied
That our love was something real
I ran away, I hid for days
There was nothing I could say
So I prayed, I asked Him why
What was I supposed to realize?
She made me come, she made me run
She made me realize what I hate
Now she's gone, I got it wrong
I want to drive into a lake
I know my heart won't break
If I just cut it out immediately
And you're telling me it's just a plan
I am here make me understand
Stop, the race was won
I fell behind, I lost at the sound of the gun
I got a ride from her one night
But it was just to be polite
She led me on though I was done
I couldn't take it anymore
I called her out, I left with doubt
Now I'm standing at her door
She made me come, she made me run
She made me realize what I hate
Now she's gone, I got it wrong
I want to drive into a lake
I know my heart won't break
If I just cut it out immediately
And you're telling me it's just a plan
I am here make me understand
I'm here
Make me understand
I'm here
I want to understand
I'm here
But I don't understand
She made me come, she made me run
She made me realize what I hate
Now she's gone, I got it wrong
I want to drive into a lake
I know my heart won't break
If I just cut it out immediately
And you're telling me it's just a plan
I am here make me understand

Bouncing
04:21

Find me extraordinary
Very shameful gold canary
Amadeus writing Skynyrd
Freebird at Old Martha's Vineyard
Tonight, uh huh, alright, I'll make it
I will find a light, I'll take it
I will be alright, I'll fake it
I know how I write, create it
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
Tonight
Find me socks that hold some treasure
Or a girl's old loose thread sweater
It don't matter, it's for the better
I'm just looking through old letters
Tonight, uh huh, alright, I'll make it
I will find a light, I'll take it
I will be alright, I'll fake it
I know how I write, create it
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
Tonight
I dive and sink beneath the sea
With sharks and minnows just like me
I kick and push and scream out loud
But the ocean absorbs the sound
I try and try and try in vain
But down here they don’t know my name
Will this be my destiny?
Drifting blind beneath the sea
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
Tonight
Tonight, uh huh, alright, I'll make it
I will find a light, I'll take it
I will be alright, I'll fake it
I know how I write, create it
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
I'm bouncing on the ocean floor
Tonight

Walk the Tracks
02:49

Break-neck speed here I go
There’s no stopping this
I watched the countdown to zero
Learning the price of easy bliss
Down at the bottom I found
So much I didn’t know before
Good news...I can’t lose
I’m not keeping score
So many nights to remember
So many memories I can’t find
Tell me I can do so much better
You must be talking to some other guy
Down at the bottom I found
So much I didn’t know before
Good news...I can’t lose
I’m not keeping score
Break-neck speed here I go
There’s no stopping this
I watched the countdown to zero
Learning the price of easy bliss
Down at the bottom I found
So much I didn’t know before
Good news...I can’t lose
I’m not keeping score
Down at the bottom I found
So much I didn’t know before
Good news...I can’t lose
I’m not keeping score

You don’t want to run, I don’t want to walk
You don’t want to fix, I don’t want to talk
You don’t want to stop, I don’t want to play
You don’t want to leave, I don’t want to stay
Aaa-aay
Aaa-aay
Aaa-aay
You don’t want to spend, I don’t want to cook
You don’t want my stare, I don’t need your look
You don’t want to love, I don’t want to hate
You don’t want to kiss, I don’t want to date
Aaa-aay
Aaa-aay
Aaa-aay
You don’t want this
I don’t want that
But every time we part, yeah
We be running back
You don’t want this
