Second Encore
our ship has crash landed
on a rush hour freeway
light up a post-set cigarette
smoke my cares away
out of the frying pan
into the fire
just when I think
I can’t get much higher
then I see you standing there
blue eyes and straight black hair
they say leave ‘em wanting more
my second encore
i’m burning down, cause town to town
I’m saying the same damn lines each night
Then I’ll have a lil drink
I’ll get a lil high
and I’ll start to feel alright
it’s hand over fist, its money in my mitts
I’ll sell, whatever it takes
I’m a streetlight serenade
my heart is a hand grenade
just waiting to detonate

Pack Rats
It was back in the winter of 99
Delivering paper in the morning time
Through snow and the rain
Fog and the misty
I worked long enough
Till i got that T-60
Fuck it or fight it, singin’ and writing
T be down for almost anything
Chasing the thrills or paying the bills
Just a ramblin’ rebel getting on the train
So close the lid on the box of money
In the back of my mind I’m thinking honey
It wont be pretty, getting all ready
Taking all this shit down
To the next city
I’d love to stay and chat
But my beers are running low
I’m going to step away
And change out of these clothes
We can kick it later on
If you keep it on the down-low
Pack up the stage
Pack it up for the next show

Berlin Calling
Spark me up a cigarette
Slap that bag of wine
I got a little pretty kitty waiting on me
Dancing on the end of my line
It’s been days since I left
But I’m going out again tonight
So load the gear into the van
Lets stop wasting time
Marleen, Marleen
Wont you take me out tonight?
Drag me down to your underground
And make me feel alright
Marleen Marleen
Let’s paint this fucker red
I just got paid and now I need to get laid
I can sleep when I’m dead

A Lust Supreme
I want to get high
To get a little closer to you
Let’s stay out all night
It’s all I want to do
Take me out into the city lights
Teach me how to speak your tongue tonight
Show me how to life a perfect life
Soaring on infinite high

The Panic! At the Disco - Fulsome Prison Blues
I don’t like the way this tastes
who you running from anyways?
did you think you could forget about me?
did you really think you could escape?
_____
let it rain down on me
because I’m guilty
for wanting everything
and now sorrow sings:
the moment you realize where you are
the moment you know you gone too far
the moment run out of luck
the moment you stop giving a fuck
the moment are cursing above
the moment you fall out of love
the moment you stop keeping pace
the moment you fall out of the race
the moment she’s with another guy
the moment when you want to die
the moment when it all comes to a halt
the moment when you know it’s all your fault
the moment when know you aint sleeping tonight
the moment you watch her drive out of sight
the moment she deletes you on her phone
the moment you know you’re all alone

Nightstream
I stab into open air
Equal hope and despair
That this lock might take my key
I enter a warm embrace
Of some cared for space
Smiling faces in picture frames smile back at me
I hang my coat on the hanger
Drop my bag by the door
When I'm drunk taking of my boots is a chore
So I wear them damaging these dark halls
Until I take what I need
And find a spot to fall asleep on your floor

(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?
The morning light
Creeps through the blinds
I think I got 3 hours last night
My eyes are bloodshot
Acidic gutrot
6 more hours in the van
No ceiling stays the same
Strangers change in the picture frames
A day older every morning
And I’m feeling faded
I’ll run hot walter
Forget the father’s daughter
Who’s scent lingers on me now
What’s the story, morning glory?
When I wake up in the morning,
What am I supposed to do?
When the first thing I think about
Is how I left you.
To sleep on the cold floor
To run my body weak
Snorting things
Breaking strings
Living like a freak.

Caress of Steel Wheels
Get in the van
Stick with the plan
6 hours to go
Somewhere I don’t know
A new countryside
Another long drive
Leaves of yellow and gold
Speckle the wet road
Big wheels
Keep on turning
Over me
Under me
Waking up early feeling heavy in the eyes
Feels like a demise, the AM I’d always despised
But in turn I’m making amends for my previous mistakes
Was it real?
Was it fake?
I simply do what it takes.
Drinking myself with a heavy demeanour
Darkness recedes a secret retriever believer
But when it’s time i can switch up the gears
No need to fear
Touring van
And my homies are here

Enter the Tempel
I walk on these cold streets
Possessed by some unknown thing
Searching for the unmarked door
To the land where we will be king
I’ve been out here so long
Driving highways of sin
So I bang on the door
C’mon man, please let me in
To enter the temple
There are dues you gotta pay
You must fall down on your knees
And drive the thieves away
So many will come
So many will go
So many are called
But so few are chose

666Hz, The Frequencies of the Beast
There is a time of day
Where demons like to play
Running through your brain
Driving you insane
Doubt yourself: what are you doing?
Doubt yourself: what are you proving?
666Hz, the frequencies of the beast
Fix the mix
Until your eardrums bleed

Darn That Dream — Stairway to Eleven
What have I done —
Am I the prodigal son?
If I dig my toes into the grass
Will momma still know who I am?
I traded the stars
To play on electric guitars
Dress me up and put me on the stage
Sell a few words on electric page
Talk to me one on one
This machine that I’ve become
What a fool to waste so much time
Chasing fools paradise
Damn that dream
That had me playing Autumn Leaves
Whisper sweet lies, manipulate
Light the fire and congregate
______
Darkness dances on the dimly lit fringes
Of my mind
Just like a black storm cloud
Covers a clear blue sky
I miss my time in nature
Honey, I miss your smell
I’m stuck amongst this glitter and gold
Of a circus carousel
All I can do
Is try and hang on
Through the darkness
See the light break another dawn
I love the smell of a venue
Anticipating a set
The feeling of thundering bass
Pounding with my heart in my chest

Walk the Plank
Embarked on a journey that mad a man out of me
I learned to sail the high seas
Sailing around not sure where to go
Catching any warm winds to blow
Living on the end of 7th avenue
I drove by almost every night
The sacred name was the valley cruise
To feel something inside
All the glory
All the pain
All the waiting in vain
Jump right in
Sink or swim
Never look back again
The price you pay to find your way
Walk the plank
It’s the van breaking down
It’s going broke
It's nobody hearing the worlds you spoke
I did the time
And now you're mine
