Spent the last seven weeks
Feeling lost and alone
Don’t even need to say it
Cause you already know
As long as we’re awake
Bad dreams never come
Every promise that you make
Is not a reason to run
They make it seem like
Everything is cut and dry
Clouds always grey
Never black or white
The ending of the day
Fades into night
From the dark look away
And step into the light
Some day you’ll find
Love and affection
You recognize
From every direction
You’ll see the light
And feel the protection
Of those watchful eyes
Impossible to feel like it’ll be alright
Not inclined to steal
But I’ll take all of your time
Don’t feel like it’s for real
But reality can bite
Fate has arrived
Time to say goodbye
Watching out for arrows of emotion
We dodge evading head shots and close ones
We pause and our hands try to hold on
As we wait for your signal
When it’s time will you tell us it has come
Give a sign let us know that you are done
No one could find better company than you
I say I’m fine, but that doesn’t mean it’s true
Some day you’ll find
Love and affection
You'll recognize
From every direction
You’ll see the light
And feel the protection
Of those watchful eyes
Some day you’ll find
Love and affection
You'll recognize
From every direction
You will see the light
And feel the protection
Of those watchful eyes

As soon as I’m awake
Try to make a living from the things we make
Or what we’re harvesting
On the hardest days
Nothing but the wind will come my way
But I need sun and rain
In the marketplace
Everything is made to be thrown away
Somebody profiting
Transactional irrational
It’s the thrill of the day
That’s why I’m
Gone before you make me an offer
Gone before you make me an offer
Gone before you make me an offer
I can’t refuse
I’m takin it down
I’m breaking it out
If you keep pushing me around
You’re making a sound
No need to shout
Cause I’m gonna keep on turning it down
I’m in outer space
Feeling so far away
In a time and place
Infinite connection every day
All the time it wastes
Anything to feel that warm embrace
An easy escape staring you in the face
Sometimes you gotta look away
That’s why I’m
Gone before you make me an offer
Gone before you make me an offer
Gone before you make me an offer
I can’t refuse
I’m takin it down
I’m breaking it out
If you keep pushing me around
You’re making a sound
No need to shout
Cause I’m gonna keep on turning it down
I’m making it count
I’m breaking it out
If you keep pushing me around
You’re making a sound
No need to shout
Cause I’m gonna keep on turning it down
It’s quiet right now
But the sirens and the lights will be coming around
There’s a fire in town
Smoke rising and it makes a cloud
Crying out loud
Somebody put this fire out
A dollar amount over a body count
Missing the point to what it’s all about
That’s why I’m
Gone before you make me an offer
Gone before you make me an offer
Gone before you make me an offer
I can’t refuse
I’m taking it down
I’m breaking it out
If you keep pushing me around
You’re making a sound
No need to shout
Cause I’m gonna keep on turning it down
Without a doubt
I’m breaking it out
If you keep pushing me around
You’re making a sound
No need to shout
Cause I’m gonna keep on turning it down
Keep turning it down
I can’t hear you
Keep turning it down
I can’t hear you
Keep turning it down
I can’t hear you
Keep turning it down
I can’t hear you

I remember driving late at night in Idaho
State road seventy five in a motor home
Trailer in tow
Forty five in a thirty zone
Riding dirty though
Just came up from California
Where the wild things grow
Pulled over to the side of the road
Everybody hoping that he might let us go
He could smell it in the air
He could see the smoke
One thing that he doesn’t know
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it up
No longer free to go
Location of the mason jar is all they need to know
Separately questioning everybody with the hope
That somebody will crack and take the honest approach
And I suppose
That was me that gave into the pressure that I perceived
I believed they would show mercy
But I know better
Cause the handcuffs come out
One size fits all
Try to keep calm
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
Just let me roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
We wanna roll it
We wanna smoke it up
We got the last of the stash in our pocket
Suffering succotash
Blue lights all on my ass
What do I do
Maybe just let them pass
Maybe just hit the gas
Throw out the stash and mask the odors
Hide all the cash from mad controllers
Road sodas
Oh no I’m sober
Or at least that’s what I told her
Shit
Chillin in the back of the paddy wagon
Mind is gone time is dragging
Don’t belong and I start to panic
but I hear a voice and it’s awfully manic
Rival meth gangs and they’re going toe to toe
Oh what a lucky day
We’re gonna let ya go
Thank god for my guardian angel
Coulda been bad coulda been mad painful
Phone call to my mom woulda sucked
Hey mom bout to be locked up
In Idaho mom I dunno but the cop got a bible though
All I had was a bag of weed
It was shitty weed too and the cop agreed
Yes sir I am in a band
A shitty band too but in high demand
The contraband came from a fan
I don’t even know how it got here man
So anyway dude I’m not tryna be rude
If you gave me a minute I woulda just dropped it
Cause I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
Just let me roll it
I wanna smoke it up
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
We wanna roll it
We wanna smoke it up
We got the last of the stash in our pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it
I got the last of the stash in my pocket
I wanna roll it
I wanna smoke it
I got the last of the stash in my pocket

You gotta feel it
Banana peel it
And when it’s ready to be seen
Then you can reveal it
Don’t let ‘em steal it
You gotta seal it
The double helix
Catlike reflexes like I was Felix
I’m rolling through Texas
To get to Phoenix
Driving a space Lexus
Straight to Venus
I won’t repeat it
Won’t be defeated
And if you’re coming for the stash
It’s already been depleted
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
I got to go go go
Like I was Dominos
Thirty minutes or less yes
So let’s vamanos
It's uncommon
As spring without pollen
To bring about change
Without causing problems
I know the way to San Jose
But I got lost
Which cost me the whole day
Back on track
So let the rhythm attack
And sit back and relax
Let us take you away
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
I see the birds and the bees
The leaves return to the trees
I burn through the breeze
I learn to agree with nature’s ability
To fill me up with a sense of humility
I will erupt with a new found mobility
I give it up to the new sound it’s given me
I fill a cup raise it up to the moon
Our days will come soon
Anticipation is killing me
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
There ain’t no bowls full of gold
At the end of the rainbow
No it’s just the same old same old
But I ain't even trying to complain though
I’m grateful you even let me be a guest on your game show
Like come on down
Feet firmly planted to the planet
But above the ground
I stay lost in thought but still moving around
Cause sometimes I don’t want to be found
I use my supervision to maneuver through the system
Give thanks for existence
Thanks for this gift of imagination
Communicate and find the opportunity to
Travel through the vibrations
I consider it a privilege my whispering
Got anybody listening
Listen it hits a little different when it’s different
Let me take you somewhere different
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent
Let me take you somewhere different
Somewhere the air is magnificent

In ninety eight I was a high school freshman
Baggy pants shaggy hair like my best friend
Had a crew thought we knew what to do
But we never really had a clue until we got arrested
Turntables at the spring fling mixer
Ten stairs somebody take a picture
Bus boy in a station wagon
Bass in the back and I said hey mister
Will you help me out
You may have your doubt
I know my voice is loud
Having trouble trying to keep it down
In ninety nine I was a sophomore driving
Friends all pile in everyone smiling
In the woods was the place to be
No authority to erase these dreams
Raise your hand if you want to start a band
Got a drum set in my basement man
Plus I got myself a station wagon
Amps in the back I believe that we can
Will you help me out
You may have your doubt
I know my voice is loud
Having trouble trying to keep it down
Say will you rock with me
At the neighborhood block party
We can play our favorite songs
If you know all the words you can sing along
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Will you help me out
I know you have your doubt
I know my voice is loud
Having trouble trying to keep it down
Say will you rock with me
At the neighborhood block party
We can play our favorite songs
If you know all the words you can sing along
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Don’t stop driving me crazy
Don’t stop driving me crazy

Rules to follow rules to break
It’s hard to know which road to take
Just know that when you’re in my space
Don’t get up in my face
Maybe you could be a part of the solution not the problem
Pick up the pace you’re ride is driving away
You’re not welcome here no more
You gotta take it outside
Not in my house not in my house
Two wrongs they don’t make a right
Not in my house not in my house
Here’s some advice that’s free to take
Not every fight is worth the stakes
Pressure dropped into the bucket
Started way back in Kentucky
Back it up and pack it into your truck
There is a place to do the things
That you would like to do
And I don’t know where that is
And I don’t give a fuck
You gotta take it outside
Not in my house not in my house
Two wrongs they don’t make a right
Not in my house not in my house
You gotta take it outside
Not in my house not in my house
Two wrongs they don’t make a right
Not in my house not in my house
Go where you wanna
Wherever you can
You smoke marijuana
Smells like shit hit the fan
You gotta take it outside
Not in my house not in my house
Two wrongs they don’t make a right
Not in my house not in my house
You gotta take it outside
Not in my house not in my house
Two wrongs they don’t make a right
Not in my house not in my house

One to one
Three to three
Whatever makes you happy
The score looks even to me
We will have some fun
We will have some trouble
We’re gonna hit some traffic
Whatever you need me to be
I’m lightning
And you're thunder
I’m brimstone
And you’re fire
And what we don’t know
Is what we don’t know
Can we take a moment
And let it all go
Just let it all go
Let it all go
Remember a time
Nothing else mattered
We're swinging on the vines
And looking up at Saturn
Oh the things we would find
The colorful patterns
Ignoring all the signs
Causing them to shatter
I’m lightning
And you’re thunder
I’m brimstone
And you’re fire
And what we don’t know
Is what we don’t know
Can we take a moment
And let it all go
Just let it all go
By the power vested in me
I pronounce that you should be free
No matter your residency
All the places you’ll go
When you leave the comforts of home
You’ll find that nothing comes close
To the rivers and lakes that you know
One to one
Three to three
Whatever makes you happy
The score looks even to me
We will have some fun
We will have some trouble
We’re gonna hit some traffic
Whatever you need me to be
I’m lightning
And you’re thunder
I’m brimstone
And you’re fire
And what we don’t know
Is what we don’t know
Can we take a moment
And let it all go
Just let it all go
Let it all go
Let it all go
Let it all go

Stranded on a beach somewhere
My ship is gone but I’m still here
Digging out the words in the sand
Help me I’m out here all alone
The sun is gone and light departed
I try to feel my way around
I wade into the darkness
And make my way down
Don’t know where I am right now
I remember where I'm headed to
A place in a little town
I was on my way to be with you
I’m walking on the ocean floor
Looking for a better way to spend my time
I’m looking for an open door
Trying to find another way to get inside
Waiting for a light to shine
I don’t know how long it’s been
Running out of oxygen
Time to swim back up to the top again
No I don’t want to go
Don’t want to go back to the shore
Can’t hold my breath anymore
Gotta find a way out
I’m walking on the ocean floor
Looking for a better way to spend my time
I’m looking for an open door
Trying to find another way to get inside
Waiting for a light to shine
I can’t tell if I’m still asleep
Or if I’m barreling way too deep
Waves that swell and start to sweep
Broken shells dart of my feet
I’m walking on the ocean floor
Looking for a better way to spend my time
I’m looking for an open door
Trying to find another way to get inside
Waiting for a light to shine

In the future
Only one thing I know for sure
It’s up to you sir
Go out and get it if you really want more
To be a loser
Only happens when you’re keeping score
So be a chooser
Of things that bring us close to what we’re looking for
Quit focusing on yesterday
You got to help your future self
Clean it up and put the mess away
Your future self needs help
Set it up for later
When you don’t want to put in the work
Do us all a favor
Let us know what it is you prefer
Spare yourself the labor
Before you go digging in the dirt
Prepare yourself for danger
More you know the less it hurts
Quit focusing on yesterday
You got to help your future self
Clean it up and put the mess away
Your future self needs help
There is no help in the future
You got to help yourself in the future
There is no help in the future
You got to help yourself in the future
In the future
In the future
In the future
In the future
