Come ride the wave
Come ride the wave

Most distance is traveled while going nowhere at all
Looking forward or back only enhances the crawl
Glimpses of the blank canvas hold a chance to enthrall
Yet we find a reason to stop

Come ride the wave
Come ride the wave

Strong passion enlightens as pain comes to pass
Dreary swamps and vibrant lotus need each other to last
Falling toward the event and flowing from the morass
Yet we find a reason to stop

Come ride the wave
Come ride the wave

New moments pulse chances to feel the earth breathe
The self who looks can only find there is nothing to see
Except love is the wave to ride calmly and free
Yet we find a reason to stop

Don’t stop!

Good morning the world is turning
Right outside my back door
Spinning and spinning I can’t hold on
Wake up when the love is gone
Where do you go when it all runs out?
Where do you go when there’s nothing left?
Get out of town and move along
Force a little smile and sing your song
Just run along

Good day to storm the man
People crying, they don’t understand
Fire and pitchforks are out today
People saying he just can’t stay
What’ll we do when it all burns down?
What’ll we do when it’s up in flames?
Get outta town and move along
Force a little smile and sing your song
Just dance around

Good evening the tide is turning
Can’t you feel change in the air?
Over and over we repeat
All our mistakes so we can eat
Why do we all talk and talk?
Why does no one seem to care?
Life is short when there’s no tomorrow
Talk is cheap unless it’s dressed in black
Just move along

Good night the world is ending
Right outside my back door
Burning and burning it’s all over
Fire goes out when the love has won
When do you say you’ve had enough?
When do you question what they say?
People upstairs got it made
Bellies are full and the bills are paid

Just run
Just dance
Just move
Just sing
Just sing
Our song

Elmore/McIntyre

I was a train in a snowstorm
All the lines were crossed
I was the brain in a criss cross
When all else in the world seemed lost

I was just looking for the norm
Pondering through this political storm

I was a sailboat in a hurricane
Lightning all around me screaming out my veins
Darkness clouding my every thought
Even my eyes seeing what’s not

I was just looking for the norm
So caught up in the perfect form

Everything around me — uncertainty
Looking for some — clarity
Not looking for — no charity
Darling don’t you save me
I’m getting up off my knees

Don’t you come save me
Don’t you come save me
Don’t you come save me now
Don’t you come save me
Don’t you come save me
Don’t you come save me now
Don’t you come save me
Don’t you come save me
Don’t you come save me
I’m getting up off of my knees

I am a rocket ship pressing on through the sky
Worlds behind me, galaxies in my eyes
The only thing in front of me, infinity
So let’s take us a ride

I’m done looking for the norm
Not caught up in your perfect storm

I am a star ship burning through the night
Titans crawling, ramblers passing by
Tighten up the reins are running wild
Grab ahold, save your inner child
I’m done looking for the norm
I don’t need your perfect form

Everything ahead of me — destiny
Found all my — clarity
All my mistakes — are memories
Darling don’t you save me
I’m getting up off my knees

Far from now we’ll wander down
Walk the town feel the ground
And breathe

Far from now we’ll see the brow
Till and plow, grow unbound
And live

I want
Overall immortality
Overall immortality
Overall immortality
Overall immortality
With you

Far from now we’ll break the bars
Make new scars, chase the stars
And be

Far from now we’ll near the pass
On greener grass, walk the path
And know

Elmore/McIntyre

You say you would die for love
With roses in your hand
That no matter what happens
You would always take that stand

Well I’m all tied up for you
Got my hands behind my back
While you’re out warming your hands
You’re hiding under your hat

Three-day dance it’s a three-day dance
Three-day dance it’s a three-day dance
Three-day dance it’s a three-day dance
And it starts at sundown
When the lights go down
For our three
Three-day dance

Well your thoughts of love
Have a way of costing you
Sometimes your bleeding heart
Is not enough to get you through

I’m gonna have to go down
Take care of our business there
But when I get back
You’re gonna have to take that dare

When the sky turns black
And the earth moves beneath your feet
Know it’s the beginning of your greatest defeat
So you can look out your curtains
It’s time to lift your veil
All I’ve ever done for you
Was to set your soul to sail

Elmore/McIntyre/Powell

Walking around the world today
I see despair I see dismay
Someone here’s gotta’ say
I see your pain it’ll be okay

But loving yourself is hard to do
After you’re broken through and through
Try a little more every day
Say it once more we’re okay

I said yeah I'm alright
I said yeah love yourself
‘Cause I love you so
Oh I love your soul

It’s tough for us to see
The beauty inside and that’s obscene
When there’s nothing left to lose
Love yourself through and through

Come all and gather ‘round
Stomp your heels in the ground
Shake the earth and move your feet
Come to life and join me
Say yeah I’m alright
Scream yeah I’m just fine

Oh I I’m just fine
Oh I I’m alright

Come all and gather ‘round
Stomp your heels in the ground
Shake the earth, move your feet
Come to life and join me

And say yeah love yourself
Scream yeah love yourself

‘Cause I love you so
Oh I love your soul
Oh I love you so
Oh I love your soul

Elmore/McIntyre

I’m in a powder keg and the sparks are flying
Watching a runaway train to the streets of denying
Flick a cigarette on the sidewalk, I’m dying
And the whistle blows

She’s got a one-way ticket to a tattooed man
She reaches under the bar if you understand
Got a long-hair trigger aimed at your brain
Gonna get you boy on the southbound train
And the whistle blows

It may be evening it may be night
If you put it out there’s gonna be a fight
She’ll wrestle you down to the silver stream
Her bag of tricks ain’t what it seems
And the whistle blows

It’s a childhood boredom game
She gives you some timber and you make a flame
Just one more beer babe gonna make me saner than the last guy
And the whistle blows

He’s got a redhead lover and she don’t give a damn
With her meter running down at the scam
Got her hands on the shifter shifting gears
She’s been doing this for many years
And the whistle blows

The concrete sidewalks all know my name
‘Cause I walk on them to a southbound train
Is it a bitter root or a healing herb
Or maybe just something that I heard
And the whistle blows

Elmore/McIntyre/Powell

Where is your head?
Can you see it at all?
Where are the thoughts inside of your head?
Where is your control of what you’ll think next?
Where is the self?
Are you there at all?
Are you there at all?
Are you there at all?

Where are the eyes looking back at you?
Where is the time?
It could take you too
What are the thoughts that make the call?
Where is the self?
Are you there at all?
Are you there at all?
Are you there at all?

The future never arrives
The future never arrives
The future never arrives
The future never arrives

The future never arrives [Look for the one who looks] (To all, avow)
Illusory thought contrives [Smash the wheel] (To push you from now)
The future never arrives [Look for the one who looks] (To all, avow)
Illusory thought survives [Smash the wheel] (To push you down)

To push you from now
To push you down

Elmore/McIntyre

Whispering winds sing to the mountains
Softly sweeping down the line
City lights blind my eyes
Just another day gone by

And it’s nothing
And it’s nothing
And it’s nothing to me
Tell me something
Tell me something
Tell me something I believe

Time passes slow
Friends come and go
Hold on
Wherever you may run

Thunder cracks and shatters the night
Clear reactions in the pale moonlight
And I think I see
Who I was meant to be

I was broken
I was broken
I was broken now I’m free
And that’s something
And that’s something
And that’s something to me

Melting in the desert
Freezing in the north bay
Flying over Broadway
Nothing’s getting in my way

And it’s something
And it’s something
And it’s something to see
I’ll be something
I’ll be something
I’ll be something
You’ll see

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

Elmore/McIntyre

Just as a rock
Is not shaken from the storm
So shall I
Take these troubles as they come

Like an island
In a hurricane
Bring the rain
I’ll be here standing still

I’m still standing
And I ain’t falling back down
I’m still standing

I close my eyes
There’s no surprise
That I find my own worst enemy
So step aside
It’s my time to shine
I’m alive and I’m still standing

Shining light
Not dim tonight
Although this strife
Almost took my life
So I changed my name
So I can remain
They say I’m not the same
But I’m still standing

Silias walks the streets
Like he knows them
But really he’s just seeing all the change
Bricks and stones and walls
Once he called his home
Now just forgotten empty space

Silias walks the beach
It seems to know him
But really he’s just seeing all the change
Ties that bind and a rising tide
Remind him of who he used to be

Now his hair is hard and looks a mess
Tattered clothes and bloodshot eyes
A mirror image of societies blind
And no one will give him the time

But you’ll always be that old surfer dude
Monkey see monkey do
Always be that old surfer dude
Wish he would get a clue

Silias leans on a bar
That seems to know him
But really he’s just seeing all the change
Good times buried in the wall
Mock him with who he used to be

Silias rides the waves
He seems to know them
Because he knows there’s only change
Peaking waves and the sun on his face
Remind him of why he stays

Now his hair is wet and full of sand
Board shorts and hopeful eyes
A mirror image of the ties that bind
And still he can’t get with the times

Elmore/McIntyre

Wake up, look at the clock
Stand up, another new kid on the block
Higher, here we go again
Louder, where we begin again

Livin’, going forward today
Dreamin’, about the long far away
Taking, all that I have
Talking, about what went bad
But the past is gone

Time ticks away faster these days
We just fight to survive
Wanting, chasing, pleading
For the long far away

Go out, look at the clock
Setting out, to prove what we got
Pretend, that we have a choice
Contend, with an out-of-key voice
But we’ll try anyway

Distance, traveled far today
Resistance, still got a long way
Fear, in all of our eyes
Tears, when one of us dies
They'll be heading far away

Lay down, look at the clock
Ghost town, time’s lost art
Dreamin’, forever I’ll stay
Pushin’ towards the long far away

Pushin’ towards the long far away
Pushin’ towards the long far away
Pushin’ towards the long far away
Pushin’ towards the long far away
