BIBLE BELT 03:36
lyrics
buy track
How'd you keep them fresh How'd you keep them strong How'd you keep them cigarettes From going bad for so long When I taste my own blood And I call your name When are you going to have enough Of all, all this pain But I know you've got some room in your heart For me, on these warm nights But we don't have much time to share Because, you've got your life And lord, I'm losing mine Said it wouldn't be pretty When I finally saw the light So you ran outside with tears in your eyes In the Texas moonlight How'd you keep them fresh How'd you keep them strong How'd you keep them cigarettes From going bad for so long And when that priest stands over me You make sure he uses my name But I don't want that crowd knowing From where I came Because it ain't Lord it ain't The same

Did you watch her Drag it down the hall Some fine silhouette Rolled up in a ball You know where its been Since you've seen that face before But worst of all is all Thats kept next store Or did you come Just to find out What you knew all along Why dont they all just fade away Feels like its all been lost in the trade Why dont they all just fade away

KING AND COUNTRY 05:20
lyrics
buy track
Do you clean those medals on a wet weekend? And polish up your military ornaments? Still you tell those romantic stories, about the war Never explained what it's all for It's hard for me to understand The fascination between a gun and a man Still you tell those romantic stories, about the war Never explained what it's all for Do you wake up screaming in the middle of the night Dreaming about the firing line? Still you tell those romantic stories about the war You never explained what it's all for King and Country King and Country King and Country King and Country

PRETEND 05:20
lyrics

You know when they first came through You felt the start Before they give the secret It’s kept inside Is it always easy To pretend Its always easy To pretend you are instead of know you are And when the light comes crashing down Across your warm red eyes Youve seen the difference And its getting better Half the time You know those childish answers You know theyre true Before they call the dancers Its meant for you Shes just like a breath of spring In fall You dont know anything Not at all Shes just like that Silver springfield mall You dont know At all What the trouble With always seeing double When you think of me in twos My love Soon comforts you Out there In the distance Cold hearts will meet resistance And you think of me in threes My love Cut off at the knees Stacking bottles in your home town Kissing models with that old mouth Dont you know Its never going anywhere You know Its never going anywhere Shes just like a breath of spring In fall You dont know anything Not at all Shes just like that Silver springfield mall You dont know At all Is it always easy To pretend Its always easy To pretend you are instead of know you are And when the light comes crashing down Across your warm red eyes Youve seen the difference And its getting better Half the time

HARNESS 05:26

Ive seen the darkness Come inside to sit Ive seen the movement Of your Sole witness What is its lifetime What is its past What is the moment of its Human last Give me the harness Wrap around its head Give me the harness Already there
