Hell Is Future Fire

Hell's not other people
It's a taste I've acquired
For the reckless way I'm wanting you
Hell is future fire
Hell is future fire
I'm cold as gasoline
And you're a red hot wire
And I can't wait to spark our fate
Hell is future fire
Hell is future fire
I've got obligations
You have your old flat tire
Never been but an honest man and now
I don't care about consequences
My conscience is retired
Come and burn with me today
Come and burn with me today
Tomorrow we might have to pay
But tomorrow is so far away
Hell is future fire
Hell is future fire

I'll Be on the Lawn
02:31
|

I'll be on the lawn
Another week is gone forever
And I can't make you smile
Honey I can't change the weather
And I don't know the score
But I'll never care about sports
So if you have to go goodbye
'Cause I've got the angels on my side
The chorus keeps me company
it's never too late it's never too late
It's never too late it's never too late
It's too late
Too late
And the bells ring over everything
Like love love love
Calling from above
You can go
Anywhere and it's there
Like love love love
Hovering above
You can go
Anywhere and it's there
Sneaking out the bedroom
Hanging from the trees
Always and forever
Just beyond your reach

Release
03:03
|

The beach
Is under the pavement
Come on let's release ourselves
Come on let's release ourselves
Come on let's release ourselves
Come on....release
I can feel what you're feeling
I can feel what you're feeling
And it's heavy machinery heavy machinery
Heavy machinery
Heavy machines
The clouds, they're telling you no
You pulled a fortune from your cookie
It just said no
But you, you you've got a chorus inside
That keeps yelling, Go!

In Between
02:48
|

My friend she speaks in poems and dreams
My wife she just says what she means
Me I'm somewhere in between
I drop my boy at the nursery
With tombstones gathering across the street
Me I'm somewhere in between
Feeling light and breathing deep
Feel a house on top of me
Sunny smiles kept in a frame
Walk away or what's your name?
The moon is peaking through the trees
And glowing on a pair of knees
Me I'm somewhere in between
What I have and what I need
What I say and what I seem
In the clouds or in the weeds
Where I am where I want to be
The hills are soft and green
The sky is looking mighty mean
Me I'm somewhere in between

Look What You Done
01:28
|
|||
Backflipping down the middle of Main Street
Through a hurricane
Dancing around on broken glass barefoot
And feeling no pain
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
I can hurtle a mountain range
I could tickle the sky
I could stop a 12-gauge buckshot
And never feel more alive alive
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
I had me a rocket on a leash
And now I'm licking the ground
I got my head stuffed in a toilet bowl
Hoping I can learn how to drown
It feels like I did a double shot of draino
And I chased it with a boot in the chest
I can't eat I can't sleep I can't think
I can't read I can't I can't suffer the rest
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done
Look what you done

The Truth
03:23
|

She said I hate your voice
I said I got no choice
But you didn't have to
Wear those unfortunate shoes
She said the truth is ugly
Truth doesn't smell nice
The truth is bad for business
And makes unpopular advice
I said you standing here
Is really ruining standing here
I go here I go
But she was on to me
Like brutal honesty
And I couldn't shake
My love/hate
Thoughts of her circle
Like predatory birds
She told me something that her father said
When her friends crushed around some young celebrity
"Do we have something he can sign?" she asked
He said, "No man can give me his autograph,
No man can give me his autograph
No man can me his autograph."
And with those genes
I knew that we could proceed

I Wish That I Could Be
02:41
|

I wish that I could be
More like Marlon Brando
So please lend your attention
If you would be so kind
'Cause I just wanna change
I just wanna change your mind
And I wanna get into something
No one's ever gotten into
And ride that shiny feeling
Into the perfect line
'Cause I just wanna change
I just wanna change your mind
'Cause I'm just a guy
Who's never satisfied
This classic rock is taking up
All 8 lanes
And Dylan beats me to it
Every single time
And I just wanna change
I just wanna change your mind

The 70s are still ringing in my ears
All my friends traded in their hard-ons for careers
Chase that beat until it disappears
And the 70s are ringing in your ears
Summer comes and lays me on the lawn
Sunny days that last for days and leave me strung along
Like a faded hustler waving in the wind
One beat then the next until the end
Circles of sound
Feeling real brown
Showing up wind blown
Jokers and playboys and clowns and me
December ends with another "50 best records"
They stomp and shout and pull stops out and clamor for my mind
Who can hear when the wind whips past like years
And the 70s are ringing in my ears

The Sunshine State
04:27
|
|||
We would lay a day to waste
Killing beer cans in the ancient everglades
Times were good but not quite great
Golden glow on the condo
Reflecting on the sunshine state
We would float below the rays
Your hips were bronze and your bikini marmalade
The skin beneath was pure cocaine
Teenage haze I remember
Reflecting on the sunshine state
Away away
A way to be free
A way to believe in you
We imagined our escape
Pinned against the sand
By heavy summer days
Planes took off and arced away
Silver light on the windows
Reflecting on the sunshine state
Away
