Lyrics

Weird the things we take
with us to the lake
Keepsakes in our veins
with us in our lanes
Kissing at the stoplight
In the broad daylight
Double parked in your car
Smoking with the stars
I sucked I guess
at just being cool
And there you were
eating all the glue

5 minutes to, to Cicero
Heard a love song and thought of you
5 minutes to, to Cicero
Running far away was all I ever
Wanted to do, just me and you

Was hopelessly in love with you
You didn’t look up from your phone
Convinced of us, filled with lust, and trust
You were building great walls, I didn’t know

Lost in, in a drift
Stuck in, in a rift
Looking for, for a shift
Falling off, off the cliff

Dreamed to marry you
Keep you in my arms
An endless love story
Romance, all that glory
Had to bluntly break free
So that you’d agree
Wasn’t easy for me
Come over and leave
It’s not what I wanted
Both our souls are haunted
Ever-after endgame
Soaked in tears and blame

5 minutes from, from Cicero
I didn’t come looking for a fight
5 minutes from, from Cicero
I can cut you just as deep
Gonna ignore you all I want

Threw my heart and hopes on the line
You sighed and laughed at my shoes

You were just somebody
Could’ve been anybody

Lyrics

You can dance to it. C’mon let’s go. C’mon let’s go.

Momma, wake up. C’mon let’s go. Get outta bed. C’mon let’s go. Put on your clothes. C’mon let’s go. Smack that ass. C’mon let’s go.

Slam some coffee. C’mon let’s go. Pull on your wig. C’mon let’s go. Slap on lipstick. C’mon let’s go. Smack that ass. C’mon let’s go.

Put on your shoes. C’mon let’s go. Grab yer purse. C’mon let’s go. Fix your wig. C’mon let’s go. Smack that ass. C’mon let’s go.

Get in the truck. C’mon let’s go. Get in the truck. C’mon let’s go.

Tires on fire. Tires on fire. Tires on fire.

16 valves of vampire. Red lining my lard desire. Twin teeth amplifiers. Windows down, hair dryer.

Tires on fire. Tires on fire. Tires on fire.

16 valves of vampire. Red lining my lard desire. Twin teeth amplifiers. Windows down, hair dryer.

Video (MP4): 20230111 - The Sleepless Moons

Audio (MP3): 20230111 - The Sleepless Moons

It’s an older, original song but it still checks out 🚀 definitely share this with your friends 👽

I am ready to go back to outer space. It’s my place, recognize the faces, the foreign shapes. I know the people of my race. And you are catching there at home plate and I’m clear off in left field. Not at the second stupid base waiting to make a double play. I’m out in orbit waving goodbye as I rocket far away.

Rain delay. Too much dumb, damn static in our game. Can’t hear the signals, too much atmosphere. Houston, we have a problem: I’m burning up here. Arm’s singed to rubber. Bottom of the ninth and I’m patrolling Pluto.

The only way to win…

Lover, you just never knew what it was like to kick around in my shoes, sleep with my childhood rules learned in Sun, Sunday school. And I won’t count the sleepless moons I tried to appeal them for you. The shoes are broken in, the fans have gone. The laces are long, the currents are strong and I could drown in my freezing swimming, swimming pool.

Behind in the count. Risky day for lift off, stars dealigned. Three balls and two strikes, zero gravity. Jammed comms, windshield cracked from your impact. Who’s that in the dugout? Guess I struck out. Broken hearts hemisphere.

Tears in space…

Audio (MP3): 20190419 - Back to regular life

Do you know what I really hate?

When somebody is being over-the-top nice after they’ve fucked something up.

Do you know what I really like?

When someone offers up a sincere apology and then gets on with the day.

Own it. Regret it. Forget it.

Take five minutes, have a real conversation, and then go back to regular life.

If I don’t acknowledge I can come across like an unsympathetic magician. Trying to trick you into paying attention to my magic rabbit and hat. All the while my other hand is holding a bloody knife. I’m not fooling anyone.

And then if I’m dancing around like an out-of-the-ordinary, out-of-control ballerina with an obviously fabricated sugary song and dance, it only makes whatever transgression worse. It prolongs the distress.

Elaine said to me seven years ago, “…and don't grovel.”

I get “wanting to make it better” with flowers from up my sleeve and I’m sure I’ve tried to pull rosy ruses myself. But keep it to a minimum. Otherwise it’s a black reminder. The fuck up lingers like a red rubber band, stretching the hurt out for way longer than it needs to.

Humility. Brevity. Authenticity. I won’t go wrong with these.
