Track Name: Someone's Side of Forever
Someones Side of Forever

Going south baby
I ain't stopping till the coast tonight
Like a storm chaser
I live to watch the lighting strike
We could play it careful
I think you know I'd rather fold
they're all angels coming
and devils when you let them go

but you were like my favorite one
Live to watch you come undone
dancing in the fading light
on someones side of forever I

I'm the dive bar neon
if its all the same to you I shine
Like a punched out boxer
who swears he's still in his prime
Love my dark horses
I'ma bet it right across the board
A single engine pilot
I'll get it right or die alone

but you were like my saving grace
my ticket right out of this place
the hope fight that I thought was gone
I've been waiting here for far too long

all these revelations
I hear your voice
stay with me on someones side

all these revelations
I hear your voice
you don't have a choice do I?
Track Name: Melt That Way
Melt That Way

Got an all night feeling
we melt that way
you send me reeling
and whose to say

That we might not make it
well be torn apart
I can feel it beating
heart to heart

Chorus

When the winter comes
your still my little hurricane
taping on my window
like the summer rain
till were resting easy
in the arms above
we'll figure out the finer points
of this dark horse love

There's a red light burning
outside our door
but I don't think I
could want you more

Its a sweet surrender
a cruel escape
you send me spinning
to melt away
Track Name: Stone Skipping
Stone Skipping

I feel a change
coming
change coming
in the night

and a good man
a good man
is bout to die

load your rifles
your rifles
we gonna ride at dawn

When the sky
burns like coal
mines
in the hills

She likes sweet talk
and rough love
sitting still

I'll be there
stone skipping
stone skipping

on those eight sea shores

And the preacher man he don't know
keep on praying for the wicked hearts
and the preached man he don't know
how the sky it got so dark



Got to roll with it
roll with it
you're alright

Shaky hands all
all these plans
made with candlelight

I'll be the fighter
the fighter
you be the gloves

Get you off
get you off
finally I can breathe

Oh that riot
that riot
is what we need

I'll be
stone skipping
stone skipping

on those eight sea shores

Like a canyon
an old river
wore away

I'm gorgeous
I meaner
for all my days

like a canyon
an old river
you could never cross
Track Name: Only Good At Leaving
Only Good At Leaving

Gonna buy an old car
paint it blue or black
gonna break the rear view
to hell with looking back
don't know what they told you
or what you came for
but I'm only good at leaving
not at letting go

and on some lonesome highway
playing some lonely songs
after all the sane ones
have come and gone

all you god damn good girls
are the hardest to leave
but if my hearts not in it
what could you get from me?

Wrapped around a finger
that's wrapped around a gun
fair's my favorite curse word
easy with the gloves
don't know what they told you
but truth ain't good or bad
you can't let go of
what you never had
Track Name: Gibson and a Cadillac
Gibson and a Cadillac

We were born reckless
we were born fighters
we could take the highs
and lows

Waiting till Friday
if you're looking my way
honey better let me know

Cause we go full throttle
married to a bottle
captain when the ships goes down

get another round

Like a rolling stone
we ride tonight
to the kick drum low
the six string high
got a Gibson and a
Cadillac
and I'm never coming back

We were born crazy
tired of the maybe
all the hands at ten and two

Want to shock the system
show you what your missing
once you ditch that old fool

Cause I could all night
first thing at daylight
like you never felt before

gonna give you more
Track Name: Midnight Train
Midnight Train

I'm going on that midnight train
to that house up in the sky
all I had is in my veins
I won't have to say goodbye
what we had, was it real?
Or just a traveler passing by
with stolen love and borrowed lust
a patchwork quilt of truth and lies

you were such a wicked love
you were just the leaving kind
every time I close my eyes
that midnight train rolls by

Were you cruel, were you kind?
what you gave did it suffice
cause it was like poor mans grace
sacred rites on pagan eyes
and I wore that ring for years
even though you never showed
and what I'd give, what I'd take
to never lost and never loved
Track Name: Ghostwriters of the Plains
Ghostwriters of the Plains

She likes the cheap bars
the call of the night
goes halfway to Sunday
each Friday night

come right through
my speakers
and its right as rain
and I'd die for her
cause she do the same

and I'm a little off beat dancing
baby she don't mind at
lately I've been going crazy
your the place I wanna fall
sing it to me slow and steady
tell me it will be the same
coast to coast with that last railroad
the ghostwriters of the plains

she likes the banjo
the mandolin too
asking for one dance
and hoping for two

I love the glory
the guts and the blood
the steam in the engine
the sweat and the sun

a year from now I'm coming home
a hero or in handcuffs girl
learn to pick uphill battles
its us against a callus world
speak in careless revelations
between the sheets the hunger waits
coast to coast like wildfire
the ghostwriters of the plains
Track Name: Everytime for You
Every time for you

Slow your roll
slow your roll baby
don't ya know
we got all night
park it down
down by the water
let's watch the factory
lights

I'm not to good
with the first move
especially when you
look that
take my hand
make it so easy
take my hand
no looking back

And in that old Chevy
to the rhythm on the radio
I was born ready
when it comes to you and me I know
that I should play it careful
but I can't help myself I fall
like I've never head the blues
every single time for you

I was living life
in this ghost town
bring it to
bring it to life
shining like lower
Manhattan
rolling on these
winter nights

Christmas lights
snow that keeps falling
you got a hold of my heart
feel you right there in the morning
and nothing is like it was before
Track Name: Any Storm For Your Port
Any Storm

Hey were we wild and crazy
hey were we young and dumb
was I a fool to use words
like jaded and love

I held all my breath for you
my face was turning blue
you said it was the timing
but I would have waited too

You were looking with those eager eyes
we were dancing with tomorrow's ghosts
was I the man you needed then
or any storm for your port?

You said that fault wasn't mine
from where I stood it wasn't yours
was I the man you needed then
or any storm for your port?

Hey were we young and reckless
or did it burn that bright
cause I tried hard to replace you
and failed so many nights

Hey did I waste my last chance
hey is it over now
and it's going to take some time
to try and live this one down
Track Name: All The King's Ghosts
All The King's Ghosts

All I really want
is you
Come on see me on
through

Fighting for this peace
my dove with claws
you and me are going higher love
till the morning breaks
you'll be my saving grace

Save your wasted breath
I don't hear no
cause you and me
are going higher love
back under the load
man fuck your masquerade

It's all in the way
you break those hearts
you can't love the light
just to spite the dark
hold me steady tonight
like they're at the door
don't go gentle away
no not at all

Jester and the king
both love the queen
but there's a right way to do these things
stand up cause we don't love your lies
at all

Breaking storefront windows
in our minds
a revolution just the quiet kind
take back your mind
find somewhere to start

Don't let the days
pass you buy
you can't pick the truth
just to spite the lies
a march to the end
or kingdom come
don't go gentle away
no not at all
Track Name: Kill For California
Kill for California

Cause the summers always fading
winter lasts to long
I'd kill for California
and a loyal girl to hold
its in the over under
the odds you can't match
and I swear I do right by you
if I got a second chance

How to control
what we don't know
can't you see I'm falling free

Under the same stars
late nights in this bar
with the mess you made of me

Taking my chances
with these romances
in the end they all let go

Out in the rain
against the grain
every solider fights alone

Cause the summers always fading
winter lasts to long
I'd kill for California
and a loyal girl to hold
its in the over under
the odds you can't match
and I swear I do right by you
if I got a second chance


Why do we bet
get so upset
when the house is made of cards

How do we dance
keep making plans
when the ether takes its wants

Taking my stands
with crooked men
and flag and we never fly
Track Name: Heartache on the Run
Heartache on the Run

First with the low blow
then with the high
you're talking an ocean
there's waves in your sighs

and each one is breaking
I'll be the moon
ships sink in bottles
when I'm pulling for you

back onto the ocean
heartache on the run
your the windows
when they’re rolled down
on the 101
like and old bar needs a
jukebox
like a tough guys wants a fight
all the innocence and splendor
all the fury and the might

you make the slow songs
go by so fast
love like a shakedown
rules they don’t last

if today was my last one
take you by my side
since everyday could be
take you every time
Track Name: From The Gallows Home
From The Gallows Home

When that ax falls baby
we'll be running free and wild
when they read your charge
I'm already by your side

Just like the Mississippi
wild and from the north
don't I know your name?

Drinking grain belt
down at the corner bar
some things they don't change

Love the way your hands fits
right into mine
love the things you do

If I'm not yours
than I'm no ones at all
call me tried and true

From the gallows
home she rides
my little outlaw

From the gallows
home she ride
with a love song

Love those stars
up in your sky
but they're lying

Cause they look like
the brightest when
when their dying

Just like the Rio Grande
wild and from the west
don't I know your type?

Drink all day
and you're always the last to talk
first to step outside

Like my bass drum
like a great northern freight
stomping thunder roll

About to rock
than its always here’s to you
to uptight go home
Track Name: Other Words for Free
Other Words for Free

Just take a deep breath
and hand me my gun
tonight we're just fine
tomorrow won't come

The panic don't ask
the fever don't lie
every marked man
we'll tell you he's fine

Other words for free
they mostly mean gone
sorry ever after
taking its toll

Just take a deep breath
and read me rights
tip the ax swinger
to make it fall right

Back against all my walls
the judge and jury lied
I learned never listen
wheres my witness alibi

Storms we set in motion
words that still draw blood
far from the spotlight
and unrequited love

It's love that we hate
and lust that we love
its whiskey we drink
and vodka we don't

The north is still wild
and made me this man
but stay bullets kill
like ones that you planned

No good fighter
punches for free
like every bombshell
wants everything

If heavens a bar
shes sitting upstairs
waiting all night
to mess up my hair
Track Name: Love Like Thieves
Love Like Thieves

I'm an old song
you sing when you're alone
I'm not like you girl
I don't stand in a crowd
I'm the freight train
yea I've seen better days
but there were times when
your world turned cause of me

Red white and gold
great northern lights
and the good ones come back, do you?

Autumn don't ask
cause winter don't know
when you fire shoot straight and true

I'm a long shot
I’m the betting mans demise
Like a prize horse
run for someone else each time
when the same wind
that drives you leads to storms
waves come crashing
with a mind that’s all their own

I'm the river
middle finger to the sea
flowing angry
cause they chose it all for me
feel your heartbeat
when it races and it slows
love like thieves we'll
touch what no one could own
