She was the best friend
That I could find
She never betrayed me
She always got me high
Don’t you know that the only thing
That can stop us is a drought
Let’s make it rain
Now that the times are much
Harder than before
I see her more and more and more
It’s not the same
Don’t you know that the only thing
That can stop us is a drought
I want it to rain
Let’s make it rain
Stop and listen
To what I’m really trying to say
Even the strongest love
Can slowly fade away
But it’s okay
To fade away

Get Carried Away (Live)

If you
Could look inside me
What kind of man
Would you want me to be
Would I
Have to think like you do
See through your eyes
Parade the disguise
Get carried away
Everyday
Would you
Bestow some time
Strangle your mind
Imagine the thought
Found but then lost
Would you
Judge who I am
Convict where I stand
Get carried away
Everyday
If I
Could be like you are
Be one in the line
Numbing sublime
Get carried away
Everyday

Bring It Back (Live)

To speak in vain- to hide the truth
To savor pain- to lose my youth
To waste my years- to taste the shore
To dry my tears- to fear no more
To search for home- to know to be
To decide alone- to now save me
To wash the past- to turn away
To think at last- to scream and say
Bring it back again to a place that’s never scene
We’ve been hanging out to long in the spaces between
Times when you’re tuning in or maybe tuning out
Because smiling and laughing is what we’re all about
But they say our time is just wasting away
Scratching, crawling, grabbing, reaching, is not the only way
We’ll drink from the sky while we’re smoking from the rain
Our totem has been chosen and we’ll bring it back again
Bring it back again like I knew it from the start
This grooves a one way ticket shooting straight and from the heart
You can feel it in the air, it’s in the streets and in the beats
It’s sliding through the people and the faces that you meet
Then a stranger greets a stranger and they’re changing all to friends
We can all begin to taste it as it’s rising back again
The sky receives a toast and the rain is smoked away
Our totem has been chosen and we’re coming back to say
To walk in line- to burn the page
To hold all time- to feel my age
To leave this town- to live while dead
To test my bounds- to feed my head
To ask your Gods- to spread my wings
To float in skies- to love something
To wash the past- to turn away
To think at last- to scream and say
Bring it back again here comes my favorite part
This joint’s about to burn if we just ignite the spark
Stampeding like a rush using sound to mow them down
Dancing, bouncing, slamming, is how we like the crowd
Feed it to your head, to your body, to your soul
Let the music take you no fear to lose control
Music with my friends and we’re sharing it with the
People who are dancing, bouncing, slamming being free, being free

I Remember (Live)

Kgb and christmas tree
Acapulco gold
Does it mean anything
Now that we’ve grown old
So light a smoke
I’ll tell a joke
Remember the magic middles
So much time has gone by
Thoughts of you still race through my mind
I’ll remember
Those days forever
Listen to me
And I’ll listen to you
How the hell did we know
We could always see things through
Often times
I’d feel depressed
About the world around me
And you’d say
Cast a line
We’ll kill some time
Soon everything is gonna be just fine
Night would come
And we’d cruise around
Forget about this old rusty town
I’ll remember
My friends forever
I’d like to sing this song for you
It’s the least that I can do
Celebrating memories
Immortalized in melody

Black sheep splitting family
Black sheep does he look like me
Black sheep never finds his place
Black sheep hides his milk white face
Black sheep splitting family
Black sheep does he look like me
Black sheep breaking all the rules
Black sheep just another fool
Can it be
Possibly
You are me
I didn't think so...
Nervous spasm in your eye
Infection needing blind supply
A beaten dog wanders alone
And rips the meat from a filthy bone
Black sheep beating family
Black sheep does he look like me
Black sheep never finds his place
Black sheep hides his milk white face
Black sheep beating family
Black sheep does he look like me
Black sheep breaking all the rules
Black sheep just another fool
Can it be
Possibly
You are me
I didn't think so...

Someday (Live)

Bathe in the blueness of morning
With shadow shapes change the mood
A sunrise within a moon falling
Light breaks shattering the room
To begin new life as a whisper
The same two giving to one more
Here’s a place to stay safe forever
All alone upon the cold killing floor
So hey there Mary Jane
Won’t you come and ease the pain
Won’t you make me smile again
Someday
Because I’ve been sad like you
Won’t you help to pull me through
Won’t you turn my skies to blue
Someday
No mistake we’re in this together
A love that no one else can see
The hardest part is trying to remember
Time spent you without me
So hey there Mary Jane
Won’t you come and ease the pain
Won’t you make me smile again
Someday
Because I’ve been sad like you
Won’t you help to pull me through
Won’t you turn my skies to blue
Someday
