Right after sundown, we roll
Out of this city we fall
Can see the light down the road (Oh lord)
And there’s a long way to go
Right after sundown, we roll
Looks like I’m losing control
No going back in that hole (No Lord)
There’s only one way to go
Chorus
Spinning out of this old rhythm
Ain’t got nothing more to give ‘em.
Heading for a full collision
Letting go
Spinning out of this old rhythm
Ain’t no time for indecision
Walking reaching jumping out
Gotta go…
Verse
Right after sundown, we roll
Out in this night there’s a war
High, riding spirit and dope (Oh Oh)
Oh it’s a hell ride bus home
Right after sundown, we roll
And in the morning, a call
Nobody’s counting this toll (No No)
Ain’t flying your way my love
Chorus
Spinning out of this old rhythm
Ain’t got nothing more to give ‘em.
Heading for a full collision
letting go.
Spinning out of this old rhythm
Heading for a full collision
Walking reaching jumping out
Letting go
Bridge
I got this whole thing going on
I got to work all day
I got this whole thing going on
Out in the night
We’ll play
(REPEAT)
When you got a whole think going on
When you got the rhythm in your bones
When you try to reach out and you don’t know
How to get the wheel start spinning on

BUILD
Come back old friend
This is all we have
All built on promise
Ground your feet and believe
Come back old friend
Dance around the fire
Unleash your horses
Throw your clothes in the sea
To stay is so much better than retreat
Let’s build a home
Build a home to last
Walking in a Mad Town
Let it go down
Walking in a Mad Town
Under the sun
Walking in a Mad Town
All that we got
Walking in a Mad Town
Walking in a Mad Town
Everything’s up
Walking in a Mad Town
under the sun
Walking in a Mad Town
Let it go down
Come build old friend
Whistle just for me
Let’s sow some memory here
Come see the world within your reach
Come back old Friend
This is all we have
All built on promise
Ground your feet and believe
Built a home
Built a home to last
If there is something in this world that you need, like a backup plan like a crazy trip, like a second thought that has grown down deep, and you reach within for an answer, for a sign, for a switch, without doubt take the leap and follow your lead come on follow your lead after all we are only stardust that has settled and waits to fly again
Build a home
Build a home to last
Walking in a Mad Town
Let it go down
Walking in a Mad Town
Under the sun
Walking in a Mad Town
All that we got
Walking in a Mad Town
Walking in a Mad Town
Everything’s up
Walking in a Mad Town
under the sun
Walking in a Mad Town
Let it go down
Build a Home yeah

A Handful of Stones
Yes!
I did it, I drew up a list of plans
for the coming year
it read: "one; punch a hole to the other side,
two; burn a hole back again
three; lose this guess work inside of me" then I ran out of ink
It's not easy to walk on water, with a hand full of stones
Lose myself to the other side
in a miniature apple fight
my marmalade appetite
I've obscene mounds of gratitude
they could wipe the floor with your kindliness
for all that you do
It's not easy to walk on water, with a hand full of stones
I looked back through my diary
it's the one that's half done
tried to pinpoint the avalanche
the day when the tides changed
then it struck me with clarity
as serene as serenity gets
it's been happening gradually
death by a thousand barbed words
it's not easy to fall, but I've fallen again, and it hurts
Hola Catalina,
Como te va la Tegu,
Que mas tienes escondido
Como cuando cruzistes el mar
Aunque me ha costado tanto
Caminar encima del agua contigo
Lo haria todo de nuevo
Otra Vez

Mountain Song
Out of nothing
We have come close
We have whispered in you ear
Songs of the mountains and the jungles
Only you never hear us no more
I‘ve been searching for hope and truth and answers
But my fortune forever stays unaltered
We wandered away for more
We‘re back with our bags all empty
Never forgotten
The journey’s what we’re after
Out of nothing
We have come close
We have whispered in your ear
Songs ‘bout the poles melting to nothing
Only you never hear us no more
I’ve been searching for hope in the gutter
But you are my only noble single answer
But you never notice us
Cause we are silent
To an ending
Silent to an ending

One By One
Turn to bread and wine, it’s all we need, my love
Picking at the thread, the garment comes undone
Faith in this cadaver, ripe for dissection
Help to comprehend, and roll away the stone
there’s so much you can do to build it up
there’s so much you can say to break it down
You want to cast a shadow, as wide as is your love
The size and shape of light make no difference at all
Help to comprehend this knocking at my door
Take this oaken heart, I don’t use it anymore.
there’s so much you can do to build it up
there’s so much you can say to break it down
One by one
We could change it all
We could change it all
If you’d be the change
I been looking for a long long time
I have travelled all the world to find
All I wanted was a heart of Gold
One by One
We could change it all
We could change it all
If you’d be the change

All my Possessions

All my possessions
Going back
on our road away
Going back
it will happen anyway
lonely road
i‘ve been wide awake, awake awake
Turn back
All directions leading to
One track
With a sound that plays
So much soul, enough to wake up the world
I’ll wait
Always
Walk on Fire
and the Fire won’t let you burn
It will turn into a sea
It will rise
Oh rise
Walk on Fire
and the Fire won’t let you burn
It will turn into a sea
It will rise
I am gonna lay down light
Lay Down
Burn down
All my possessions
All my computer screens
All my obsessions
So I can fly to the future
Dive in the past
Get back my jungle
My house
Looking back
There's a sign that's telling me
Going back
To a distant memory
Only hope, only while we're away, away, away
Pushing back
There's a sound, a melody
Ringing out
With renewed reality
A sound that's old enough to wake up the world
Always, I’ll wait
Walk on Fire
and the Fire won’t let you burn
It will turn into a sea
It will rise
Oh rise
Walk on Fire
and the Fire won’t let you burn
It will turn into a sea
It will rise
I am gonna lay down light
Lay Down
Burn down
All my possessions
All my computer screens
All my obsessions
So I can fly to the future
Dive in the past
Get back my jungle
My home

Come and Let it Show
In the underground
I have stayed too long
I’ve been waiting
For friends and foes to love
What I hold
Given up a world
It was all I knew
I’d been waiting
For far too long
now I know
Fly me over low
Through the waves and shores
There’s only one way to go home
IF I WAS TO FLY
FAR AWAY TOO HIGH
I MIGHT BE WAITNG
FOR WINGS TO MELT AWAY
IN THE SUN
Travel me across
Give the ferryman my stone
I’m done waiting
Let my life just be
And unfold
Fly me over low
Through the waves and shores
There’s only one way to go home
Fly Home
Don’t Let Go
Go Round the World
Take the long Way
Fly home
Don’t Let Go
Go Round The World
Take the long Way
Take the Long Way Home
Let the wind move you along
I am waiting
Come let it show
And I know
Come and let it show
In the woods I found a home
Lying waiting
Come let it show
Come and let it show
Its a long way home
Lying waiting
Don't let it go
Now I know
Take the long way home
There’s a plane bound home
Lying waiting
Don’t let it go

ONE WAY ROAD
Right or wrong
I am in there
I’ve mended crossroads
I built a few doors
Right or wrong
It's different
I am moving on
I let it all go again
Our love was a one way road
Far from all we knew
Our road was a long dirt track
Our homes on our backs
Unsure, where it ends...
Out of the corner of my eye
I caught a glimpse of your light
Under a desk you said not just yet
But I already knew you too well
A mind defines
A hope unwinds
A wall absorbs
A truth unfolds
A line defines
A rule upholds
A trip allows
A bridge to form
A common thread
That binds us all
Is all that binds
Us to love
Our love was a long dirt track
Our homes on our backs
Out of the corner of my eye
I caught a glimpse of your light
Under a desk you said not just yet
But I already knew you too well

The Dirty Cover
Get out on the road - Go down
Head over the wall - Go south
Back a long time ago
I was a stranger chased down (down)
Ooh - Got my feet burnt in the sand
Get on ride on - Go round
Over the wall - Head south
I said no more (no more)
I was going down and down and down and down and down yeah
Ooh - Got a fever from the sun
In the city alone nearly lost my mind x2
You're treading on water - Treading on water
With a handful of stones and lies
Treading on water - Heading on under
When you just could be moving on
Under my Cover, dirty old cover
With my skin sore and eyes alight yea yea
In the city alone nearly lost my mind x2
Get out on the road - Go down
Head over the wall - Go south
Back a long time ago
I was a stranger chased down
Ooh - Got my feet burnt in the sand
In the city alone nearly lost my mind x2
(Ah) Treading on water - Treading on water
With a handful of stones and lies
I am building on water - building on water
Spread our roots deep into the sand
As the wilderness calls me home
Never thought it would take so long
Oh yea oh yea
Get out on the road - Go down
Head over the wall - Go south
On and on I said
Get out on the road - Go down
Head over the wall - Go south
On and on I said
(In the city alone nearly lost my mind)

Turning Your Way
Little song of poetry
Little song of love and grief for you
On the steps of Santa Ágata
No wind round steep corners
The bafo smoke slings it’s belly in the floor
Walls and walls of smoke and cigarettes
Stacked themselves together
Little song of love and grief for you
On the steps of Santa Ágata
No wind round steep corners
The bafo smoke slings it’s belly on the floor
Walls and walls of smoke and cigarettes stacked themselves together
Midnight and walking
There’s an old story on the loose
Sunrise still talking
The story’s unfolded and I’ve been the sole listener
And if a message is coming through
It’s ‘stay close the wheel will be turning your way’
Every night there’s a story on the loose
A day without memory goes
Its a day worth missing
And if the tide is coming back
It’s only cause there’s still
So much to be heard
Every night there’s a clue tied on the noose
The walls are still holding
For us to walk right through them
And if a body is on the wall
It means never look back
Together we’ll stay
Midnight and walking
After hours there’s still a hope to hold
Sunrise still talking
Oh is there ever a way to unlearn the lesson
And if a message is coming through
It’s ‘stay close the wheel will be turning your way’
