MEMPHIS to MONTANA

Try to Find

When she looks his way again, nothin' done and nothin' said
Will match the story in her head, how their perfect love begins
With a glance that dances in, to fill her heart and steel her breath

She'll try to find, a more than perfect love, to hold a setting sun, till' just that right moment comes
She'll try to find, a more than perfect love, to pull a bright moon up, when just that right moments done

Through a smile she tries to hold, a look that hides and never shows
Her heart or hand or what she knows, how the ending supposed to go
With him standin' in the door, fade to black and credits role

She'll try to find, a more than perfect love, to hold a setting sun, till' just that right moment comes
She'll try to find, a more than perfect love, to pull a bright moon up, when just that right moments done

Under a Black Flag Tonight

Nobody said nothin', when you slipped out your back door
You made damn sure of one thing, you took everything and more
You burned the whole damn town down, to stop me getting in
Hid behind rattle snake eyes, and your slick shit sipping grin

You ran rough shot through, this town we built that made you
You took us all for fools, now I come to take what I'm due

One to your left thigh, to remind you just who I am
A second to your right eye, figure now your gonna understand
You made me ride under this black flag tonight
Blind greed and lies, I never wanted this fight
Under a black flag, black flag, black flag tonight

No matter to you or yours, we took you at your word
Just one more chance to steal, what you ain't ever earned
You and a thieving few, took our town and our pride with it
But please don't apologize, this ain't that kind of visit

One to your left thigh, to remind you just who I am
A second to your right eye, figure now your gonna understand
You made me ride under this black flag tonight
Blind greed and lies, I never wanted this fight
Under a black flag, black flag, black flag tonight

You, you, fuck you, you, and you, you, you, you

And All Free Today

When I was little, the kid catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang scared the shit out of me. I think he would make a great spokesperson for big-tech LLM generative AI.

Come gather round my lonely one's and follow me this way
There's treacle tarts and lollipops and it's all free today
I'd never break your trust my loves believe me when I say
When you look down and not around your sadness goes away

So let me tell you now my sweets exactly what to think
Your less than them try again press heart for dopamine
I've cataloged and memorized your dirty thoughts and dreams
So back to sleep my kiddie winks your secret's safe with me

Yellow flowers are hanging off my cap, golden robes they drape across my back
Swaying softly as I dance, I got you now, hell you never had a chance
Yeh you never had a chance

But why are you upset my pets, that you still feel alone
I never said I'd be your friend or that your free to go
So back to work back in your cage and I'll throw you a bone
Cuz there's billions to be made today and not a penny of its yours

So let's both admit you little shits how this is gonna' to be
In the end you and your friends you all just work for me
And the part that makes me happiest is the part that you don't see
In the end you and your friends you work so hard ... for free

Yellow flowers they're hanging off my cap, golden robes they drape across my back
Swaying softly as I dance, I got you now, hell you never had a chance
Yeh you never had a chance

Go on and try to run away, you'll miss what everybody's saying, and come runnin' back in half a day

Draggin' Heaven Down

This is what I should expect, smoking pills so I forget
Devils dancing in my head, yelling you ain't even yet
For what you did and what you said, this is what I should expect
West VA, mountain-moma

This is how it's going to be, drinks and dabs so I can ease
Banshees drifting through my dreams, screaming you can't ever leave
You sold your ticket home to me, this is how it's going to be
West VA, mountain-moma
Dragging heaven down, down, down, down
I got one hand on the devil, around his tail
I’m dragging heaven right down, down to hell

This is what I got in store, nails and needles on the floor, nails and needles on the floor

West VA, mountain-moma
Dragging heaven down, down, down, down
I got one hand on the devil, around his tail
I’m dragging heaven right down, down to hell

I'm dragging heaven right down, right down, right down.
 

Cold Smoke and Sin

In the morning sun, my heart is solid steel, ain't nothing gonna' hold me back today
When the working's done, my steel is rusted through, hardly fit to keep the blows away
Then the evening comes, that armor's on the floor, a little prayer to keep the storm at bay

And that's the time, every night that storm will rise
And that's the time, my broken mind will lose the fight, lose the fight

Cold smoke and sin, right on cue to lay me low again
Like some wicked wind, blowing through I feel it rolling in
Cold smoke and sin, they lay me low again

With two coffees in, I'm a giant among men, just get behind me and let me lead the way
Then the thoughts begin, it's the same song every day, who am I to think I could be so brave
So the drinking wins, to make the thinking end, but I know that storm is coming just the same

And that's the time, every night that storm will rise
And that's the time, my broken mind will feed the lion, yeh feed the lion

Cold smoke and sin, right on cue to lay me low again
Like some wicked wind, blowing through I feel it rolling in
Cold smoke and sin, they lay me low again

I'm right back on my knees again, I try to keep it from rolling in, I try to keep from rolling rolling in again
And I, and I, feel it rolling in, rolling in again

Lions Bled (Dawn in Thiepval)

Hayden knew he was strong, he’d waited so long for the dawn, and the glory it brings
And he whistled a song, as the canons roared on, stood to arms for country and king
He’d go up at first light, first to the fight, Ulster pride would carry the day
So he prayed through the night, that his generals were right and not a wire would be left in his way
Lions led, by so many fools
Lions led, by so many mules
Lions bled

His orders came from on high, from the men who don’t fight, but use words like duty and faith
Not a soul had survived, on the enemy line, no-man’s land is the Lord’s pitch today
But nobody would say, the wire remained, when they say the mistake that they made
As his generals delay, Hayden watched through the haze gray ghosts rise, set arms and take aim
Lions led, by so many fools
Lions led, by so many mules
See how those lions bled, lions bled

Where are the old men, who write plans and pretend
They’re safe in the rear, far away from the fear
Counting time, in their polished parades
Finding someone, down below to blame

At half seven o’clock, he went over the top, with a prayer don’t let it be me
And just twenty yards on, no one saw Hayden fall, all alone where God couldn’t see
How he suffered the fools, the pack of old mules a Lion led by donkey decrees
And in the dawn of Thiepval, in a hole in the Somme, all alone where God couldn’t see
Lions led, by so many fools
Lions led, by so many mules
See how those lions bled, lions bled

One Whisper Falls Through

I hold fast tonight, to Northern lights, those greens and whites, dancing with the sun
The smallest sound, comes falling down, through parted clouds, from dreamers up above

One whisper falls through, through the darkness torn in two
One whisper falls through, just one whisper from you

I hold fast tonight, to morning light, those softs and brights color what's to come
The smallest sound, your heart calls out, I'm with you now, you'll never be alone

One whisper falls through, through the darkness torn in two
One whisper falls through, just one whisper from you

So I drop down, and kiss the ground, I know I've found the golden shores of dawn

One whisper falls through, through the darkness torn in two
One whisper falls through, just one whisper from you
