                              Lyrics
Echo the hollow
Platitudes, platitudes
Trust in me I’ll care for you
The other guy is killing you
Platitudes, platitudes
 
Mind explodes, screeching and screaming
New red clothes, decorated whiteboards
We all know; rules to follow
Overloads; echo the hollow
 
Blame it on whack, on the mentally ill
Might as well track the squalor bill
Blame acid rain on acts of God
With your hand on your heart, echo the hollow
 
What a feeling
Spirit reeling
We’re all bleeding
What a feeling
Echo the hollow         
 
Outta the blue, but we always new
Into the black, cos there’re never coming back
Couldn’t make up the scene, is this the dream?
Rip it apart and echo the hollow
 
What a feeling
Spirit reeling
We’re all bleeding
What a feeling
Echo the hollow 
       
​Nobody Sayin’
There’s a faint line of horizon
Where the light begins to play
While the elements conspire
To fit the wheels on another day
 
I can’s say that there’s a place
Where I would ever truly stay
But I know when someone cares for me
I’m a little bit intuitive that way
 
In the moment, however long it lasts
Got to be grateful, got to be glad
In the future there may be no past
Nobody sayin’ how long forever lasts
 
The dream is always waking
With the same love every day
The dream is always living
In that extraordinary way
 
Now I can’t say that there’s a place where
I would ever truly stay
But I know that someone cares for me
And I feel privileged to say
 
In the moment, however long it lasts
Got to be grateful, got to be glad
In the future there may be no past
Nobody sayin’ how long forever lasts
Natalie
You really know what you’re doing
I surely like your style
You got a head on your shoulders
Vibes going out for miles
 
I see all the pretenders
They’d never match that stride
You drop all the accoutrements  
Working on the inside
 
Natalie, you look so free
Natalie, I want you to see me
Natalie, I can tell
Natalie, you and me, we’re gonna gel
 
They say the times are a changin’
I know that is true
Cos I feel the Earth burnin’
Every time I see you
 
We’re gonna get through the terror
I know we’ll be alright
I’ll be there for you Natalie
Keepin it locked down tight
 
Natalie, any fool can see
Natalie, what will be, will be
Natalie, who can tell
Natalie, if we’re really going to hell
 
Natalie, you look so free
Natalie, I know you see me
Natalie, I can tell
Natalie, you and me we’re really gonna gel

Wash Your Million Dollars
You’ve got a funny way of lookin at it
But I really like that show
You’ve to kick that habit darlin
One day soon everybody gonna know
 
This little girl plays a gangsters number one
Oh I know it’s not a likely plot
Neither is it very far from where we are baby
Not so different from what we got
 
What I’m sayin, what I’m sayin darlin’, what I’m sayin honey
 
I would wash your million dollars
I would drive them down dirt roads
I would believe everything you told me
Till the cops sent everybody home
 
If the boot was on the other foot
I know you’d do the same for me
You’d keep all the gangers bangin
While you distribute the crystal methamphetamine
 
You’d hang on my every single syllable
Toe the line to a t
While I instil a fear in everyone
Of my darkest fantasies  
 
What I’m sayin, what I’m sayin darlin’, what I’m sayin honey
 
I would wash your million dollars
I would drive them down dirt roads
I would believe everything you told me
Till the cops sent everybody home
 
I would wash your million dollars
I would drive them down dirt roads
I would shoot anybody
Till the cops sent me home
 
I would shoot everybody
Till the cops lost control
Till the cops brought in the army
Till the army sent everybody home in a bag
 
No Zone
Traffic in the air
Traffic on the land
Got my share
Blood on hands
You don’t know
No zone          
Let your body shiver
Let your body moan
Let your body shake
Shake out in the cold
You don’t know
No zone
No rights
No home
No life
You ain’t got
No zone
No life
No home
No rights
You ain’t got
No zone

Moving
I struck the road with my heel
I struck the road with my feel for the day
I stuck around through that painful sound
I stuck it out all through the grey
 
And the sound comes around
When the ground is washed away   
Good people come around
And the sound is blinding
Hey, what did I say
 
Moving on is moving anywhere else
Moving on, is there anywhere left
Moving out, always seems it’s for the best
Moving up is for the rest
 
You know what they say, time to get away
What the grind takes 69 times what they pay
You know how they do lie in wait for you
You know what I’m like you what I’m gonna fuckin say
 
And the sound comes around
When the ground is washed away  
Good people come around
And the sound is blinding
Hey, what did I say
 
Moving on is moving anywhere else
Moving on, is there anywhere left
Moving out always seems it’s for the best
Moving up is for the rest

Karma Kings
Another life, another planet, another girl
Another time, another space, another world
Window shopping, water boarding, interesting plans
I think we need to re-evaluate
Karma as the dharma of the kings that gave the crown away
 
Slip-sliding, mud-riding
Slip-sliding, how’s my timing
 
Another line, another smoke, another play
Another screen, another TV, no other way
Every time you see it something shoots it, something eats it
Don’t believe it’s always been the same
Karma as the dharma of the kings that give the crown away
 
Slip-sliding, mud-riding
Slip-sliding, how’ my timing
 
Karma kings, karma kings, karma kings, karma kings
We’re all karma kings
Karma kings, karma kings, karma kings, karma kings
We’re all karma kings
Karma kings, karma kings, karma, karma, karma kings
We’re all karma kings
Karma, karma, karma
KARMA!!!

Oh Hey
Heaven knows where you got the notion
That love grows when you administer the potion
Heaven quakes when you get the feeling
That love grows deeper when you’re kneeling
 
Oh hey, Oh hey
 
Hell found out about your crazy notion
Hell rose high to bottle up the potion
So now I like to lubricate with lotion
Who knows why we try to break the laws of motion
 
Oh hey, Oh hey
 
Somebody else is gonna do it for you
Somebody else is gonna do it too
Somebody else is gonna do it to you
Somebody else is living the lie
Potion, motion, lotion where’d you get the notion
 
Oh hey, Oh hey
 
There’s a lot of chatter in the valley
There’s a spot of icing on your tailbone
Watch that knot tighten in your belly
Take your shot, now sit back in the ozone
 
Oh hey, Oh hey
 
Somebody else is gonna do it for you
Somebody else is gonna do it too
Somebody else is gonna do it to you
Somebody else is living the lie
 
Potion, motion, lotion, where’d you get the notion
Potion, motion, lotion, substance
 
Oh hey, Oh hey

​

​Lettin’ the Light
Hey my little girl,
Hey my whole world
What’s got you calling me
In a voice crying out so loudly
You got the best of me
For a time I could hardly see
But darkness is no longer part of me
 
Oh you’ve got a healing heart
You know you always had that little spark
But lovers can play those silly games
And people can get a little bit insane
Oh it made a mess of me
For a time I could hardly breathe
But darkness is no longer what I see
 
From here on I’m gonna walk right
Gonna follow that path right outta the long dark night
I’m through with hurting and causing pain
I don’t ever want to be that kind of man again
Oh because the best of me is in sharing in the air I breathe
Darkness is no longer part of me
 
Lettin the light,
lettin the light,
lettin the light shine down on me
​Heady Love
When that ray shines in my room
I won’t need to run outside too soon
See I don’t need heady love
No I don’t need heady love
 
Cos I live on my wiles
 
When that light shines down on me
And sweet success is all I can see
I won’t breathe heady air
No I won’t breathe heady air
 
Cos I live on my wiles
 
You can let that heady love
Take you to the stars above
You can breathe that heady air
I’ll be staying on this earth somewhere
 
Fresh in the morning, ripen in the day
Come the evening we all fade away
I got no need to breathe heady air
I got no need to need heady love
 
I guess I’ll live on my wiles for another while
 
You can let that heady love
Take you to the stars above
You can breathe that heady air
I’ll be staying on this earth somewhere
 
​Old Songs
I been tryna find some old songs
Cos those new songs aint workin’ for me
I always find that the old songs
Get me connected as I’ll ever be
 
No need for somebody tellin me
The wonders of life or crazy it’s gonna be
Life’s hard enough as you live it
You wanna kick back with something can take it and Knows I can give it  
 
So I been tryna find some old songs
Cos those new songs aint workin’ for me
I find peace of mind through those old songs
Letting my soul and my spirit feel free
 
All anybody ever really knows
Lift up your eyes and follow the road
All anybody ever really can see
Without human kindness, there’s no life for you and me
 
So I been tryna find some old songs
Cos those new songs aint workin’ for me
I always find that the old songs
Let my soul and my spirit feel
