I Mother Earth - Used to be alright

Tekst :

It s pretty good, the wine
The way that we look at
Ten to eight in the morning
Just talking, still awake in
Dawn and dew drinking, thinking
Always...

Remembering the laughs, the time
We got high for seven days down
In New Orleans and it seemed like
No one else knew we were just
The moon and sun in fog before the
Heat burned it away and took
The sleep from tired heads on
Beds of reaching hands, of road trip
Breath and long tall freedom

And then you long
For the days of trippin down
The long road just reading the
Signs that show you the way to
A higher place you meditate to
Feel the quiet of the earth
That was back
When we used to be alright

Another shame, the way
The city smells worse on
A hot day in August...2 PM
Right before us good movers
Move and us shakers break
Our hearts getting home to
Country love and the garbage
Dump by the dried up creek
Near the forest that once had life
And then I turn on the news
Somebody shoot me soon
I m tired of over heating, falling
Quick to bending knees and
Broken veins, of always needing
Faith to get to shore and break
All the vows I ve made

No time or presence
Of mind to wonder why
No time for questions of
Why I wonder why
Something s wrong...again
The noise shakes the ground
There s a rage in
The crowd and I m a face
In the crowd, what s your name?
You re sinkin in the sand
Standing next to me, a river
Running through your pants, afraid
To trust me when my hands
Are helping you

    Homesick hopes

    No one wants to hear his story
    Another boring kid in town again
    Who stares at photographs
    Of far away friends
    Frustrated, he can t think clear
    His aspirations seem sincere but how
    Can he make them all work out

    Homesick hopes...

    Making me crazy

    On the phone its 4 am
    And I m still talkin to my friend
    Talkin bout anything
    Just to hear his voice would bring
    Happiness, inside of me
    He has such a nice personality
    He tells me things that are good

    Undone

    Living alone, body shaking
    Cars outside
    They re singing their songs
    The candles wave
    And I get to thinking
    How people see things
    And deal with them
    In different ways

    Trying to move forward
    Like a walk underwater
    Two...

    Spokojna noc

    Kładąc się spać , popatrzę z góry
    Na ludzi walczących , burzących mury
    I nacieszę się tym co mam , i nacieszę się tym co mam

    Myśląc o biedzie , bólach , cierpieniach
    Ludzi co mażą o resztkach jedzenia
    Docenię to co mam , docenię to co mam

    If i was a blackbird

    I am a young sailor, my story is sad,
    Though once I was carefree and a brave sailor lad,
    I courted a lassie by night and by day,
    Oh but now she has left me,
    And sailed far away.
    Oh, if I was a blackbird could whistle and sing,
    I...
