wide awake
fell through the ceiling into outer space
beyond the primal pains who entertain this human hate
oh when the lights go down we dilate
so we ride again
lapping tourons on the ITN
it's been a light year since we've had to hit any sort of break
well I don't know if the chicken or the egg come first
all the moon has to offer is a view of earth
some faded flags & a stale debate
it's getting hard to see through
unopen eyes of nonbelief
up here with all our prayers & hope & dreams
if goldilocks is everywhere we point our satellites
we should be shaking hands with intelligent life
let's look beyond the heavens for heavens sake
back in the atmosphere
with nothing left to fear
a lot of unturned stones still on the old fronteir

whiskey warm to waking ears
have some fun while you're here
do you listen? do you hear?
when it's coming in loud and clear
common ground is everywhere is woven with the roots of foundation
feed the world around you with
pure experience
uh huh uh huh
the settled heads of perfect pours
rise with high demand
so fill your soul or thirst for more
cause tonight won't come again
common ground is churning out the fuel of foundation
keep that furnace burning with
pure experience
pure
pure
pure
so ring a bell or strike a chord
the world it ain't so small
with all the wealth can you afford to give anything your all?
common ground is everywhere
the wind and river run
still no story can compare to
pure experience

coast to coast
trail of seeds
first we sow
then we reap
I'm a grow on you like a wicked weed
steal some thunder give it room to breathe
out from under I'm off your leash
with a big old barrel full of elbow grease
brewed by all my best friends and me
in & out
turn the page
don't cast doubt don't you act your age
whats a bird gonna sing about if you put it in a cage
whats a bird gonna sing about if you put it in a cage
somewhere in between the church & state
lost my money but kept my faith
threw a game of cards out on the interstate
forever more embarking on this big escape
home sweet home
cheap hotel
why do i roam?
what's that smell?
threw all my bones in that wishing well
cause good stories come to those who want to tell.

shake your pants like your ass is on fire
get on down like you're changing a tire
disconnect that wire
roll up your sleeves and reach inside
hold your breath & take a dive
disconnect that wire
I wanna see you darling gettin' what you desire
desire
put it together like Frankenstein
you've got me spinnin' like a 45
disconnect that wire
I wanna see you darling gettin' what you desire
get what you desire
get what you desire

well the mountains are blue from the further you view
like blood is to a vein
skin and sky are just distance and time
your perspective's the only change
it's the only change
it's a slow and steady rise
in it wise like a truck
if not for your better hell
well everybody's out there looking out there looking for luck
but it's something you make yourself
yeah you can make it yourself
you can make it yours
you can make it yourself

partners in crime

rubber souls on my aching feet
last thing between me and the street
lucky coins down a wishing well
another big ego's show & tell
you're more than a friend of mine
you're my partner in crime
more than a friend of mine
covered those miles on the open road
met lots of folks just trying to loosen their load
having a ball without no lock and chain
the path less traveled is the only way
you're more than a friend of mine
you're my partner in crime
more than a friend of mine
we wouldn't melt under that scorching sun
broke all the rules without hurting anyone
yeah following a big dumb heart is strange
blood and sweat for some pocket change
you're more than a friend of mine
you're my partner in crime
more than a friend of mine
partners in crime

so where you going to I don't mind
I've killed my world and I've killed my time
so where do I go what do I see?
I see many people coming after me
so where you going to I don't mind
if I live too long I'm afraid I'll die
so I will follow you wherever you go
if you're offered hand is still open to me
strangers on this world we are on
we are not two we are one
so you've been where I've just come
from the land that brings the losers on
so we will share this road we walk
& mind our mouths and beware our talk
'til peace we find tell you what I'll do
all the things I own I will share with you
and if I feel tomorrow like I do today
we'll take what we want and give the rest away
strangers on this world we are on
we are not two we are one
holy man and holy priest
this love of life makes me weak at the knees
& when we get there make your play
cause soon I feel they gonna carry us away
in a promised lie you made us believe
oh for many men there is so much grief
and my mind is proud but it aches with rage
and if I live too long I'm afraid I'll die
strangers on this world we are on
we are not two we are one
strangers on this world we are on
we are not two we are one
