for all the times…
February 2, 2012 – 12:37 pm
this one is for Mary I left her long ago and lived to tell the story of what I have to show for all the times I’ve ruined my life When midnight feels like morning and fire lights my way for such an avid talker I don’t have much to say For all the times [...]
Some Bad Dream
February 2, 2012 – 12:36 pm
You walk just like a girl that I knew Same blue dress Same sweet mess of a girl that I’m sure you are You were the last to arrive The last one around The last in my car when I’m too drunk to drive The first on my list of things I should keep The [...]

I don’t see your brakelights burnin’ Well I don’t guess your turnin’ around You wave back but now your engine is just a fading sound I was wrong when I was thinking That I’d survive the storm And I was wrong when I was thinking That I could keep you warm I don’t see your [...]

Magazines

Originally performed by the everybodyfields. Two days and the money’s spent I can’t tell you just where I’ve been I only gamble when I steal ‘Cause I like the way it feels And my hands still smell like a magazine I keep having the same old dream If everything is what it seems Something’s wrong; [...]
The Prettiest Thing
February 2, 2012 – 11:47 am
Originally performed by David Childers. It was a new years day at the sea side bar. Was a special on PBR. The ocean roared outside the door. No one but us and some hardcore drinkers lost in the stormy days. How blue were the blue of your eyes, hence the sky of grey. Do you [...]
