LYRICS
I saw it for a second but then the light was fading
Sister morphine was my lady in waiting
Can I help it if I canāt help it now, all the stories I tell myself
What can I say to you all, itās fair to say, no words will do
All this time, time is speeding, itās hard to recognize the life weāre leaving
itās time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land thereās shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, itās each other we will miss
Oh the happiest moment of my life, was the saddest moment of my life
Was in prison when my daddy died
They didnāt tell me for fear of suicide
Told me when I got outside, I started using as soon as I was alone that night
And I died and I went up straight to him
He said where you been, my troubled son
All this time, time is speeding, hard to recognize the life weāre leaving
itās time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land thereās shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, itās each other we will miss
Oh the happiest moment of my life, was the saddest moment of my life
Oh my love can I just sit and hold your face. We finally made it here but now the light is low.
All this time, time is speeding, hard to recognize the life weāre leaving
itās time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land thereās shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
Now Iām feeling kind of faint, I think I need to lay down
Oh you almost saved me
You almost saved me
You almost saved me now
You almost saved me now
You almost saved me now
You almost saved me now
All this time we pledge allegiance to the tune of a thousand treasons
One nation under something, under water, under mass incarceration
In the age of feast and famine can we disrupt the social canon
Let our children lead sāwe all believe, let us see the forest for the trees

LYRICS
airstream, poetry, New Orleans, the shape of ur mouth
cafe cars, corner bars, back roads, we did the south
And I told the elevator operator
see u later, thereās a chance Iām not making it down
the wind and the willows, cigarillos and chairman mao
Yeah I took a big hit of the counterfeit, but Iām better now
I told the elevator operator
see u later, thereās a chance Iām not making it down now
And All you moon drifters, beware of grifters in their glitter thereās a chance that theyāre taking you out (now)
And ah if it wasnāt so tragic, Iād tell u everything from start to finish
But Iām afraid that it would lose its magic
That Slight of hand in the dreamland
The city of Louisiana that felt like heaven, but everyone was still alive
You said you were travellin and you put me in ur pocket
You said I tasted like summer, U could feel our pine forest bed
You words played on repeat in my head, and It took me a while to get you out
But then Iād get a letter with you still calling me baby
Thereās Pine needles in the parchment and you asking me if I was still searching
For the world that I believed
and Iād write back not meaning to send
how I was fixing settle down in some quiet southern town
Now I know u were with him all the while
I didnāt think corporate lawyers were your style
And I told the elevator operator
see u later, thereās a chance Iām not making it d-d-d-down
And All you moon drifters, beware of grifters in their glitter, thereās a chance that theyāre taking you out (aah)
So daisy donāt come, la la la, daisy donāt come to New Orleans
daisy donāt come, la la la, daisy donāt come to New Orleans
Daisy donāt come, la la la daisy donāt come to New Orleans
Daisy donāt come ,, ah daisy will you come?
And ah if it wasnāt so tragic, Iād tell u everything from start to finish
But Iām afraid that it would lose its magic
That Slight of hand in the dreamland
The city of Louisiana that felt like heaven, but everyone was still alive

LYRICS:
Long hair and longer stride
Skateboard affair with a primal tribe
And your cut off painter pants
Charginā down the craggy mountains with our thrift store friends
Who you find so, so in love with the falling earth
Who you wake in the middle of the falling night with summer playing coy
In the attics of the city night
We talked Corso and the MC5
And you could dance like
We were all alright
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Stars are up now no place to goā¦ but everywhere
One i met in the green mountain state
I dropped out, and he moved away
Heard he got some land down south
Changed his name to a name the birds could pronounce
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Stars are up now no place to go but everywhere
ā¦ no place to go but everywhere
And in the city the mayor said
Those who dance are all misled
So you packed your things and moved to the other coast
Said you gonna be like Charlie Rose
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Oh the riot and rush of the warm night air
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Stars are up now no place to go
ā¦ but everywhere
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Oh the riot and rush of the warm night air
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch stars are up now
No place to goā¦ but anywhere")

LYRICS:
Uh huh hey ya
Here we go
Leave it on the back burner take it to the dry town
Ya here we go
I got the mean time slipping down the slide some uptight right wing political homicide
Do what you want take what you will
Take it in like a southpaw flip it on the grill
Bourgeoisie protocol
Bottoms up boys this is the last call
Happy hour doesnt last too long you know it never does
So I sit here on a bar stool looking at the sky
Got a buck and a quarter and a bucket full or rye
Dont step out of line youll get time in the brig
Dont yield to the mighty you got your own dirt to dig
Leave it on the back burner take it to the dry town
Ya here we go
Me and my flea bag friends we ran to have our own feast of Crispian
Murphy was there with number twenty-two they were got caught in the middle of a coup
You will lose me if I dont lose you
And I will lose me if I donāt lose you
So we havent chosen anyone of you to condemn
So make your decision and choose your side or let us begin
Steeped in knowledge Ill step from the board
Down to the speak easy with my double-edged sword
You know the deal ya got to spin the wheel
I heard the heavens are full of sevens
And as matter of fact you know that cat suicide jack
He dont play like that
Truth is he dont really play at all
Leave it on the back burner take it to the dry town
Ya here we go

LYRICS:
Beto where will you go?
Beto what will you do?
Beto ah dont you know yet,
Your time is through?
Peddling with all your guns
And all along the way
Oh what the people say
Beto the Pure hes near
Lock your doors get out of here!
Get out...
Dona Maria she said to me
Its so much more than rice and beans
Oh that Im cooking for you
Its how i love them true...
Bring me your brothers
Bring me your mothers
Oh the little and the broken too
I will not lead them no i just feed them
Let me be me and you be you...
I see all your lines
I see all your light
Up on the hilltop flashing lights
Up on the hilltop the barrels never lie
Up on the hill top i heard it said
In a gunshot word that Beto the Pure was dead
Still i swear i see him walking and talking there
I see him walking and talking there
I feel all your lines
I see all your light
Beto where did you go?
Beto what will you do?
Beto ah dont you know yet
This time your eyes are new
Peddling with all your sons
And all along the way
All of the people wave
Beto the Pure hes near,
Unlock your doors and have no fear!
Have no fear.
Beto la Pura.")

LYRICS
oh my son, donāt you go far
i need you not to go
you are long for this world, stay close to the earth
Just like I told you so
sometimes i feel like weāre falling fast
but we never hit ground
* and as weāre falling
i turn to you
now we know the world aināt round
now we know the world aināt round
oh sweet baby you blow my mind
with everything that you do
* weāll sit right here
for every breath he makes
for the sunlight on his face
and we do it til we break in two
and we do it til we break in two
oh sweet baby you blow my mind
with everything that you do
*you said be strong
for this road that we are on
could be dangerous could be long
*you pour into me
and iāll pour into you
and weāll do it til we break in two
oh my son, i see how you fight
now you need to rest
*i know your scared
but we are right here,
pullout bed pulled up near,
with the nurses fighting the fever
like smokejumpers leaving
*their plane for the fire,
and pilot climbs higher
so your dreams donāt get tired
lights blinking all round your head
your like a Giant and the cityās your bed
rest now beautiful boy
youāre going to make it now beautiful boy
sometimes i feel like weāre falling fast
but we never hit ground
*and here weāll stay,
and fall another day
i canāt remember what to say
where do you think he is
*does he feel our gentle kiss
is he coming back
can i hold him in my lap
away from all of these machines
monitors and IVs
*you pour into me
and i pour into you
weāll do it til we break in two
oh my son, itās ok
let the machine breath for you
* youāll breath again
as soon as you can,
maybe open up your eyes
i think i saw a smile
*when i put the sox game on
on the radio
the light is getting a low
still they do not know
We canāt get any answers
*but you know that it aināt dark,
in middle of fenway park,
and the crowd sings with all their heart
ah ah ah ah
rest now beautiful boy
rest now my beautiful boy
you going to make it now beautiful boy

You raise your head, you beat the sun
But your boys they lie so close to you
Do you dare get up and wake the two
Oh Elias, I see you there at work in the day time
Do you think you answer all the questions in the world
In just one word I think you could
Cause if you die will I get word that youre gone
or will I hear it in passing conversation
or will I stop short and fall to the ground
distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found
hold my hand just one more time
to see if youre really going to meet me
hold my hand just one more time
to see if youre really going to meet me
Honest and Manuel, well theyre at school now
Given the chance that their fathers never seen
To see whats beyond section 17
And in ten years when you look back at your boys
Well you know theyre grown way taller than the tallest
Sugar cane in the field
Cause if you die will I get word that youre gone
or will I hear it in passing conversation
or will I stop short and fall to the ground
distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found
hold my hand just one more time
to see if youre really going to meet me
hold my hand just one more time
to see if youre really going to meet me
I see your wife she stands stooped over by the fire outside
and I see your boys and when they look up
you know I think they got their mothers eyes
cause she looks so proud, she looks so happy
she looks so proud, she looks so happy
Cause if you die will I get word that youre gone
or will I hear it in passing conversation
or will I stop short and fall to the ground
distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found
hold my hand just one more time
to see if youre really going to meet me
hold my hand just one more time
to see if youre really going to meet me")
