The Nomad Returns
07:49

Well I come from Pennsylvania, but I've travelled coast to coast
And I, never met a girl like you who looks through me like a ghost
No, the bottle is my friend but my love for you has no definite end
I'm driving through the desert, the mountains pass my side,
No o woman next to me no pretty girls for the ride,
Babe I know you're cheating, this town, oh babe, I'm leavin'
I'm coming for you
The Nomad hunts you
What will you do?
The city lights are glowing, and my gas tanks on a whim,
The sun falls behind me as the night is primed for sin
I've come a long way for this, The Nomad returns at last.
You sense my presence, from a mile down the road,
Struck in awe, you hear my call, you're squirming there like a toad,
You have no choice, follow my voice, and I'll love you like I'll never love anyone, again

C-Jam/The Seed

Would you wanna be my love? Shining through the clouds above.
Would you wanna be my dream? I'm a noble man and you're the queen
Please darling be my soul, light my fire in the road,
please baby bring me joy, you play with me but I'm no toy.
Why were you untrue? Forget what I had all I wanted was you.
On my face a frown, you paint me up but I'm no clown.
Someone should forewarn your next lover cause now I'm torn,
you love your rock and roll but damn baby you're out of control.

Here at Home
05:40

We walk our different paths, but I know you're not lost.
Like rain you trickle down on the mountain and into the fog.
Even though you're still close I feel very far.
Seep in through the riverbed reach up towards the stars.
You'll find your peace of mind someone who'll make you whole.
Will it be a fleeting stranger or no one at all?
You jump, I duck, but I'll be at home, looking through the hazy glass, and into the fog.
Slide through the still blue sky, the world lies below.
Pick a place or a friendly face, anywhere you want to go.
The gentle breeze will ease your feet, into a new life you go.
Far away, in yesterday, I'm dreaming of you at home.
You'll find your peace of mind someone who'll make you whole.
Will it be a fleeting stranger or no one at all?
You jump, I duck, but I'll be at home, looking through the hazy glass, and into the fog. Into the fog.

Burn
07:13

I've been here before, I can't use you anymore.
Rut in the road, of my heart and my soul.
Listen here, lean in close, you break my bones and burn my clothes.
Laundry and lunch, a good day for once.
They say I'm alive, but I merely survive.
Is this the price, for a misspent life?
Together we lived, alone we die.
Too many times, hunched over lines.
Cold to the touch, you don't say much.
Moving on, breaking through, my life means more than you.
Burn away, turn to sand, the ashes fall through my hands.

The New Groove

Melt to the tongue, kick it back our minds relax,
I can't let go, I'm on a roll no self control.
Fell my feet, off the ground I'm steady now,
I can't be beat, you're by my side heaven we've arrived.
Oh now love please don't drift too far,
I'm new to this and it's getting dark,
Through your energy, oh show me what it means, to be set free. !
There we go, as to where I'd have to think,
I'm unaware, I've seen it before place without a name.
Light shines high, ethereal and mystical,
Our time is nigh, you're by my side at heaven we've arrived
Oh now love will it be the same?
When we're done with our little game?
will your energy, still show me, what it means, to be set free
We're still alive and it makes me wanna cry,
put a gun to my head close my eyes and bang surprise,
all i wanna do is float along with you, bring me life make me sane put your wires in my brain
What you bring for me? Can I see?
All I wanna do is float along with you, bring me life make me sane put your wires in my brain.

Wandering

Could it be we dont start free on our heads they put a price
poverty enslavement the shackles like a vice
it could be the bourgeoisie have taken all but our voice
dont let them spoon feed you theres only one choice
to be sad in this way is an honest betray by everything made by mankind
my only peace is just one release that i never could seem to find
mind unkempt quiet contempt friends with my reflectin
to no surprise familiar guise cast with affliction
ostracism and vanity insanity runs its course
ripping into your tree of life tapping anger at its source
body stripped of the soul too soon sullen mourners weep
autarchs of death remember that you sow what you reap
geocidal tendencies proudly sponsored by the rich
arm the homeless then we'll see whos the crying bitch
want an excuse to stay but on emotions they prey setting low the expectation bar
my one true place among this human race is ripping on my guitar
they all hide a monster inside once fed it propagates
your blinded ignorance do you know what awaits
reach beyond begin to unfold their demise once and for all
for in vein their monstrous acts the tyrants crumble and fall
feel as you may dont be led astray every day tests the strength within you
you only need to believe in yourself and know no one else is true
