Out of Babylon

driving down the road
trying to find a home
roots are growing
money's hard to hold
when you're getting old
leaves are flowing
keep moving on
the trees will hold the past
the moon sings a song
the night will never last
and keep your dreaming strong
the road is moving fast
and there's a whole new world
out of babylon
feet are getting cold
society or bold
freedom's calling
suitcases in tow
the only thing to hold
daylight's falling
keep moving on
the trees will hold the past
the moon sings a song
the night will never last
and keep your dreaming strong
the roads are moving fast
and there's a whole new world
out of babylon

House and a Home
03:15

stuck between a house and a home
things are not things that can call me their own
gods are guns and war is free
but all that I want is the sun and the moon and you and me
you and me
spaces filled of dark are lost
of air to breathe free in our lungs
you were there when it all went up
and the smoke set and the bones were just stuff
we rust and it's over
fill the jails and lock the doors
the tv screens can shut off no more
heavy sighs from a hospital bed
don't worry love, there's wires in your head
the moon is down it cries for you
hope that one day you will cry for it too
in the chill of a summer rain
they will open their doors and they'll call you insane
but if we rust it is over

Run Away (demo)
04:00
|
|||
|
it's hard enough to move a mountain
and it's far away
so make your mind up when my heart
asks you to stay
see money's lonely and there's room for one
but only you can shut the door when it is done
I see that you're unhappy there
why don't you run away?
let more than fake wind move your hair
I have a place to stay
you've failed at things but I don't care
the sun's rising anyway
you know your home is very far from calming seas
so listen in uncross your arms and fall for me
the waves have crashed to rocky shores
but baby please
there's no reason for a compass stuck on east
I see that you're unhappy there
why don't you run away?
let more than fake wind move your hair
I have a place to stay
you've failed at things but I don't care
the sun's rising anyway
