Big game incoming
Earth tones and clean living
We upgrade, but no fame
About fifteen years in the making
Rock life, free women
Rock wife and two children
We showed up, we play out
Three or four times around the nation
Stepping up everything
Feel the chorus in your jeans
Flashing lights, LED
Hollywood, pay me please
Is it time, time to let go
The illusion of the midnight show?
Is it time, time to let it go?
Do we owe our life to rock and roll?
Truth told I’m changing
Losing my patience
The new sound we compound
For three or four weeks in rotation
Stepping up everything
Feel the rhythm, energy
Flashing lights, LED
Hollywood, pay me please

Twenty Hours

You’re second guessing, the clock is ticking
Trust your ambition and make a life
You got my attention, don’t overthink it
The simple pleasures you provide
If you were to tell me “it's do or die”
I'd tell you “hop to it and dry your eyes”
Drove twenty hours now I'm losing my cool
Friendly reminder why nobody moves
But there's something that I promised to do
So through all of it I'm here with you
Right here with you
I'm here with you
I'm here with you
Each new horizon is a reminder
Familiar faces are hard to find
It's not so often that we go all-in
But can we remember what's left behind?

I'm up late while the city sleeps
In the cool-breeze morning I'm off roaming the streets
I don't beg for much anything
‘Cept the heat of your body lying next to me
I'm uptight and I over think
Some of the less important details of my daily routine
I make light of most anything
So maybe I can let go my darker tendencies
The best days are still to come
I made up my mind for once
You are the only one I need
Together evolving in harmony
You are the only one I need
New soul emerging we are complete

Sooner or Later

All the good genes need a little help to thrive
Trying out names, middle of the night
Five minutes pass, I'm losing my head
I will deliver, no need to fret
What are you scared of?
It's never the right time
I got a bit to think through
No telling what we can't do
I'm gonna be beside you, be beside you
Had a weird dream, where's all the friendly advice?
Timing is key, no second guessing will fly
Protect, provide and sleep when you're dead
The blood in your eyes is love at its best
What are you scared of?
There is no "right time"
Sooner or later fear meets reality
Sooner or later it catches up to me
Sooner or later I will go willing
Sooner or later let in the beauty

High Tide
03:53
|

Hello, I'm wandering through muddy water searching for the coast
Another vivid dream of palm trees bowing at the hotel starts to float
Woke up at dawn again to shake off any memory, theme, or point
Don't mind the labored breathing, jaw clenched tight, there's really nothing to report
High tide will keep us together
High tide, I'm floating away
Pull me back, I'm here to remember
All I need is, all I need is your name
The too-young-to-travel crowd is singing karaoke by the pool
The snail-paced vacation pattern has me sleeping every afternoon
