"Under These Lights Tonight"
The record spins, the lights go low
The mirror flashes sweep the room
Someone laughs beside the speakers
As the chorus cuts straight through
Every stranger knows the feeling
Every face has crossed a line
From the lives we wore for others
To the ones that fit tonight
Across the floor, across the crowd
A glance becomes a conversation
Like hearing someone call your name
Across the congregation
Under these lights tonight
Where the boys can dance with boys
And nobody thinks twice
And the whole room finds its voice
Under these lights tonight
You don’t have to stand alone
When the music finds your heartbeat
You can finally call this home
Leather jackets, rolled-up sleeves
Summer shirts and second glances
Someone asks if you’re still leaving
You say maybe when the lights come on
The DJ drops another anthem
Rolling out above the floor
And suddenly the room feels bigger
Than the world outside the door
Across the floor, across the crowd
A smile becomes an invitation
Like hearing someone call your name
Across the congregation
Under these lights tonight
Where the boys can dance with boys
And nobody thinks twice
And the whole room finds its voice
Under these lights tonight
You don’t have to stand alone
When the music finds your heartbeat
You can finally call this home
Every secret had its season
Every silence had its cost
Tonight nobody disappears
Tonight nobody gets lost
Under these lights tonight
Where the boys can dance with boys
And nobody thinks twice
And the whole room finds its voice
Under these lights tonight
You don’t have to stand alone
When the music finds your heartbeat
You can finally call this home

![28 year calendar
Twenty-Eight Month Calendar
[Chorus]
I bought one clock and it still works fine
Turns ahead, turns back on time
If we can move the hour twice a year
We can reorganize our minds
I bought one clock, I didn’t complain
So why am I buying a calendar again
[Verse 1]
Every January, same routine
Brand new grid, brand new dream
I don’t replace my fridge or stove
Just because the month has moved
Paper squares with numbers neat
Twelve months later obsolete
Tick tick tick, the clock just stays
Calendar discarded, clock remains
[Chorus]
I bought one clock and it still works fine
Turns ahead, turns back on time
If we can move the hour twice a year
We can reorganize our minds
I bought one clock, I didn’t complain
So why am I buying a calendar again
[Verse 2]
Landfill filled up with days gone by
Recycling’s better, but still why
We all nod like this makes sense
A new calendar, the same events
But the math is patient, calm, and kind
Twenty-eight years, the weeks align
Same old Mondays come back home
So why isn’t a twenty-eight year calendar sold
[Chorus]
I bought one clock and it still works fine
Turns ahead, turns back on time
If we can move the hour twice a year
We can reorganize our minds
I bought one clock, I didn’t complain
So why am I buying a calendar again
[Bridge]
You’re saying, “That’s a lot of pages, mate”
Do the sums before you escalate
Three-three-six if you count the months
That’s a paperback, not a stunt
Daily version? No thank you, friend
Ten thousand pages, that’s where I end
That’s a monster, mythological
Ray Harryhausen, ecological
[Chorus]
I bought one clock and it still works fine
Turns ahead, turns back on time
If we can move the hour twice a year
We can reorganize our minds
I bought one clock, I didn’t complain
So why am I buying a calendar again
[Outro]
Sell me one twenty-eight year calendar, I’ll make it last
I’ve learned the trick, and done the math
At the end of twenty-eight years, flip it over, start again
When you die, you can will it to a friend
One calendar for twenty-eight revolutions round the sun
It’s a great idea
And its time has come 28 year calendar](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Rb_Om_nrC4s/mqdefault.jpg)






![All the Kindness Left in Town
All the Kindness Left in Town
[Verse 1]
I saw a man with a shopping cart,
Full of rain and broken parts,
He said, “Son, it’s cheaper to fall apart
Than mend what’s gotten old.”
The church bell rang, the clouds stood still,
They’re knocking down the old red mill,
And every dream up on the hill
Is priced but never sold.
[Chorus]
All the kindness left in town,
Lives above the laundromat now.
She folds her hope, she hangs her doubts,
And hums when the power goes out.
Oh, I’m still walking, looking around,
For all the kindness left in town.
[Verse 2]
The mayor’s got a brand-new plan,
To pave the park and ban the band,
He said, “Progress comes to those who can”
But must it be this way?
There’s paper hearts on window glass,
From children’s hands that never ask,
Why every little dream we’ve had
Just fades away.
[Chorus]
All the kindness left in town,
Lives above the laundromat now.
She folds her hope, she hangs her doubts,
And hums when the power goes out.
Oh, I’m still walking, looking around,
For all the kindness left in town.
[Bridge]
And if you find a penny, heads or tails,
Don’t throw it down; it still tells tales.
There’s luck in rust, there’s truth in rails,
There’s love that’s underpaid.
[Final Chorus]
All the kindness left in town,
Is hiding where the dim light falls down.
She hums a hymn, she won’t be found,
Still folding hopes in that small flat now.
Oh, I’m still walking, rain coming down,
Looking for kindness left in town. All the Kindness Left in Town](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SsOscx1NP44/mqdefault.jpg)
![That Doll
That Doll
[Verse 1]
My friend has a doll that she talks to
She could talk to me, but she dont wanna
Im gonna take that doll and throw it in the river
I think thats the only way I can forgive her
[Chorus]
The dolls not a spooky thing
It doesnt talk back and it doesnt sing
It doesnt walk around on its own and it can be seen
it has nothing to do with horror movies or Halloween
Its just a normal doll that my friend decided to focus all her attention on
And everyone who loved and cared for her before it’s like to her that now they are gone
[Verse 2]
Before the doll came around, my friend was outgoing
If there were a party or an event, you could count on her showing
Now she has that doll and you dont see her anymore
She wont answer her phone or open her door
[Chorus]
The dolls not a spooky thing
It doesnt talk back and it doesnt sing
It doesnt walk around on its own and it can be seen
it has nothing to do with horror movies or Halloween
Its just a normal doll that my friend decided to focus all her attention on
And everyone who loved and cared for her before it’s like to her that now they are gone
[Bridge]
The sad thing is, Im the one who bought her that doll
The sad thing is, Im the one who bought her that doll
Everyone asks me whyd I buy her that doll
Because I thought shed love me more if I bought her that doll
[Final Chorus]
Its just a normal doll that my friend decided to focus all her attention on
And everyone who loved and cared for her before it’s like to her that now they are gone
[Outro]
One day, after I throw that doll in the river
Maybe my friend will be my friend again
Maybe shell turn to me to talk about how she misses her doll
And then one day, shell stop talking about that doll
And things between us can be like they were before the doll came around That Doll](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/T4eqMIWCsRQ/mqdefault.jpg)
