I was a sailor I came from the sea I was a canvas would you please put paint on me I was a tall man who complained about the sun I was an avalanche who saved everyone Coin me a writer and I’ll sing, I’ll sing you a song Give me a black heart, oh and Ill tell you what she has done Drink some salvation, oh and tell me what you see A contract, kill him, so we could sit on top of your tree Give me a penny thats useless I’ll buy you a home Kill a carpenter and give his hands to the poor Theres a fire that burns somewhere up north Burns somewhere where no ones watching No ones watching

Make know faults that can leave us crying Just go make me your other side Yeah Cause I oh I came from you Just go slip from your God sent light We’ll Oh we’ll see you Fruit of your vacant tries Cause I oh I came from you You will ya see it No one ever points out your mistakes I end up trying but I hesitate I thought I saw you go erase the line Make up your twisted mind There's water flowing down different stream Slowly mending every ruptured seam Clear enough I think you see it now Support the troops and they won’t let you down Dress goes apply to both me and you Cause I oh I came from you You will ya see it too

Lemons 04:27
April winds are firey And a sea shell was never my home Can't fault a dreamer you'll not find me And her eyes will be swollen and cold How can this fire be so chilling Where can our mothers be found Dress me in camp Carolina Get me a plane out of town Fathers of fathers are not vexing To a bramble that's caught in my hair When red is not death that's when we'll sing Oh and John will follow with out a care He'll follow you without a care Lemons are our food in the evening Mascots of our ruined night My friend my God why you fleeting My special service is done done done done

Bakersfield 03:16
We had the beach we had no shame to walk it And to talk about the high tides Where the seagulls fall to depths that bring no tears to our crying eyes Couldn’t talk about the current that followed you Count the guns one and two Where the grass lays sideways And the people two and three That was enough for me to call you back to Bakersfield The kids they like the way they want it, but so it seems They laugh, they love the songs about heart ache, but I’m not sure what the means The cat that ran, they sew the seeds, but find a way from all this coughing But boy you hardly know what you’ve done Hopeful mothers wait for the Spring Young gun graveyards wait for anything Take one good look at the Sun and tell me which ones yours No one runs when they’re reassured The kids they like the way they want it, but so it seems They laugh, they love the songs about heart ache, but Im not sure what the means The cat that ran, they sew the seeds, but find a way from all this coughing But boy you hardly know what you’ve done Boy you hardly know what you’ve done To Me
