Empty House lyrics - Delta Spirit
Glinting gems in the concrete I paved
One every couple of feet
They got mixed up in the lime and the sand
Nobody noticed but me
How could one little speck make a difference to the rest?
Well it doesn't, no one cared except me.
I paid my debt to the hotel unknown
I drove so far out of funds
They kept me up, a family untied
I shared a wall and a secret
I can tell you this much
There is no love when bankrupt
Just an empty, gutted house and a grave
I got this limp from a favor I did
Some folks don't like charity
Copper pipe is worth more than you'd think
There ain't no point blaming me
How could one little speck make a difference to the rest?
Well it doesn't, never will, just like me.
Tear It Up lyrics - Delta Spirit
Just tear it up
By the way she told me September’s far too late
With her eyes like water and her heart too strong to hate
Just tear it up, you spare the lie
As the system shattered, brought the folks onto the street
All walks of life together put the past beneath their feet
Just tear it up, you spare the lie
California lyrics - Delta Spirit
I want you to move to California for yourself,
I want you to find whatever your heart needs.
I want you to move to California for yourself,
But not for me.
I want you to go out there and find somebody else,
I want him to treat you like I know he should.
I want you to find somebody new for yourself,
If not for me.
All of the feelings that I know you never felt,
And all of the simple words you never said.
I want you to keep them like a secret to yourself,
They’re not for me.
I want you to wander silent past my outstretched arms,
I want you to hide yourself from all I see.
And though my heart will fight until its dying breath,
You’re not for me.
I want you to move to California for yourself,
I want you to find whatever your heart needs.
I want you to move to California for yourself,
But not for me.
Idaho lyrics - Delta Spirit
Thunderclouds have been making faces
My friends are on the front porch getting wasted
Freedom sits this side of the hill
Calling me back but I never will
We’ll hang low like they do it down in Idaho
Don’t run, we roll, as we’re headed out to Roady’s Bowl
Some say that sleep’s for dreamers
We pack up our things and make our way to the theater
The suits, they dropped the ball again
We’ll pass the hat and make another plan
We’ll hang low like they do it down in Idaho
Don’t run, we roll, as we’re calling up the radio
Suburban crimes of using words
We hear out in the distance our ghetto bird
Big brother’s got his eye on you
Walk a block and it’ll tell the truth
We’ll hang low like they do it down in Idaho
Don’t run, we roll, as we’re headed out to Roady’s Bowl
Don’t run, we roll, as we’re calling up the radio
Don’t run, we roll, as they’re locking up another soul
Home lyrics - Delta Spirit
Beat like a rug, ashed out and clubbed
Well it’s all for my betterment
I’ll give you a rib with the marrow dried up
It’s not much but a widow’s gift
But in the right rays of the sun
If you squint hard enough
There can be only one like it
I’d write you a song
For all men to be one
But I’d sing it from a place of pride
I can sing over most and I’d gladly be the host
But most often I just hang my head and cry
There’s a song beneath the earth
It resides within the dirt
Under the nails of a workin’ man
Drug in by the reign, of the crooked ways I think
I wish I was in a mood to die
Well life, it is good, no matter how far you sink
Sometimes sitting still is better than to try
When you’re down in a hole
And your heart’s weighed down like gold
There is a hand that can reach you there
Otherside lyrics - Delta Spirit
It's in my head, it's a relief,
A sweet sound that I don't want to leave.
Kickin' around, in the back of my mind,
It stays there, and just won't let me be.
Meet me on the other side,
Meet me on the other side,
I can't be honest with myself,
No, I wouldn't believe a word I say.
Put up a wall, I've been climbing up the wall,
To an end that still I cannot see.
Tell me I'm wrong, tell me if I'm wrong or right,
Tell me, so I can't let this be.
Tellin' The Mind lyrics - Delta Spirit
It took the final straw that broke across my back
And as the others watched they all refused to lend a hand
Tellin’ the mind, tellin’ the mind, tellin’ the mind just what I wanna do
Tellin’ the mind, tellin’ the mind, tellin’ the mind just what I have to do
I have been taking notes of when you come and when you leave
I sneak out in the night and take everything I need
Timebomb lyrics - Delta Spirit
Ticking of a time bomb,
I just want to stop the sound,
Fated like the lonesome, it's true.
Remind me of a memory,
Bleed it 'til it runs dry,
But if it feels like this, then it's probably wrong, it's true.
I don't know what comes now,
I can't hear it but I know the sound.
Everyone is blind just the same as you,
But you'll see it when it comes around.
Frightened like an orphan,
Bitter like an old man,
Taken from your family, it's true.
No, I don't deserve this,
But who am I to judge?
Happiness, it comes at the strangest times, it's true.
Into The Darkness lyrics - Delta Spirit
So what’s the part that you’re playing?
Should I have guessed who you’re blaming?
Do I know him? is it me you’re naming?
You ain’t got time, you ain’t got nothin’
You live on a rock, all covered in ocean
We’ll all be dead in a few years time
Well, I am fine
Into the darkness we all go
Out of the white light and the friends you know
We’ll be spread out like a mushroom cloud
Spread all around
We’re all just sheep being herded
Well ain’t that the truth, it depends how it’s worded
Pay no mind to the others in line you’re hurting
All men’s thoughts can kill you like cancer
They smash through your head like a German Panzer
It won’t be long ‘til you’ll all be gone
Money Saves lyrics - Delta Spirit
Spanning this trap I'm in
Live in indecision but haven't an opinion
I alone, yes, I alone with you
Servant says nothing
Hearing the needed pleas of oblivion
I alone, yes, I alone with you
They all said what you had, you let it go
Like managing a hurricane, let it blow
With your money saved, your money saved
I alone, yes, I alone with you
Son says, dad, I'm a winner
Get myself a wage, they're gettin' thinner
I alone, yes, I alone with you
All the plans I made got shattered
All of my old friends are getting fatter
I alone, yes, I alone with you.
Yamaha lyrics - Delta Spirit
So cold I know you can’t believe it
Some times you gotta face the feelin’
When you don’t care if you get up again
There’s a thousand things I will not understand
How you're dealin’ with the hell I put you through
If I had my way I would be right there next to you
Certain things in life you cannot change
Certain things
I hope you know I care
I’ve been alone too many nights
Too proud to tell you when you’re right
A little patience would’ve helped me then
Locked like a brake has been the common standard
All the angels above the earth I beg, set this message right into her head
Certain things in life I cannot take
When I’m away
