Track Name: The Day Will Come
The day will come when the river runs dry
and the sun will burn the earth below
And the day will come when the earth caves in
and we'll share a drink for our troubled minds

And a travlin' hand needs a travlin' song
And a broken man is a father to none
He worked the land till the land was gone
To build a home but the devil won

And the day will come when my blood runs thin
And these words will lead me home again
And she will sleep in the open
And rest upon her fathers land
Track Name: Homesick
I've been away form the desert for far to long
and I don't know who I've become
I smoke cigarets till I lay down for bed
and I smell just as sick as I am

Home is the place where your heart resides
but what if your heart can't be found
I said my goodbyes long before their time
now I feel just as sick as you said

Homesick is far to kind of a word
it's more like a stab to your gut
some sort of disease that will never ease
so eventually you will succumb
Track Name: Snow Pt. 3
Hum hum a rowing tune
set soft against the pale moon
paling at the wild and blue
dumbstruck gaping while she moves
where she moves

She was called
called to her winter tomb
nestled in her bedroom
socks and a book and a red hue
if you'd ask me I would rescue you

She fell down laughing into a pile of snow
and said I wonder where the leaves go
and how anything could ever grow
in the frozen earth
buried beneath cold
Track Name: Here To Live
Gonna' come a time when a child of mine
will look me in the eye
not asking any questions
but simply wondering why
and I'll give the only guidance I can give
you are here to live

You'll search for understanding
and you'll wander all your days
you won't know why you tried to do you best
if you cant stand the praise
But when you'r lost and confused and there's
nowhere to run, and you've got no more to give
remember you are here to live

They say that life is just the straitest line that runs
from womb to tomb
But in the end it's just a zigzag lightning bolt
from room to room
and you'll come to realize it's all the same
when the only thing that changes is the name.

You will find it in his eyes
you will find it in her smile
you will find it when your dancing down the produce aisle
you will find it when you give
you are here to live

They say that life is just the straitest line that runs
from womb to tomb
But in the end it's just a zigzag lightning bolt
from room to room
and you'll come to realize it's all the same
when the only thing that changes is the name.

You will find it in his eyes
you will find it in her smile
you will find it when your dancing down the produce aisle
you will find it when you give
you are here to live
Track Name: Good For You
You said that I had no soul or none to hold
still don't give me away
in my my hiding place
she waits with me
she prays with me for rain

You said that I payed you no mind
but I was younger then
we were both much younger then
and all the places that we've been
we'll go again if we go again

You know these are such reckless games we play
to be close to you
to feel so close to you
and all the whispered names we say
I'd be for you if you only could be too
Track Name: Drinking Song
Just one more then
a drink to feel whole again
the power of holy amends
the praise that your eyes could lend
lets drink to the end

And when no ones home
were drinking to being alone
to knowing for sure that its done
but not to moving on
Track Name: Man Of Constant Sorrow
I am a man of constant sorrow,
I've seen trouble all my day.
I bid farewell to old Kentucky,
The place where I was born and raised.
(The place where he was born and raised )

For six long years I've been in trouble,
No pleasures here on earth I found.
For in this world I'm bound to ramble,
I have no friends to help me now.
(He has no friends to help him now.)

It's fare thee well my old lover.
I never expect to see you again.
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad,
Perhaps I'll die upon this train.
(Perhaps he'll die upon this train.)

You can bury me in some deep valley,
For many years where I may lay.
Then you may learn to love another,
While I am sleeping in my grave.
(While he is sleeping in his grave.)

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face, you'll never see no more.
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore.
(He'll meet you on God's golden shore.)
Track Name: Rubix Cube
I dreamed I left the sky for the breeze
for the cover of a low willow tree
and you today
and the rest of them
for the comfort of warm winter bed
but then
it's not that simple
