Lyrics:

These are the good years/ The best years of our lives / Its been a struggle / But we've managed to get by / Each day's a new day / The sun comes up again / Find strength and comfort / In our family and friends / Cause we all fall down / In the cold, cold ground / We don't dream no more / We won't dream anymore / Dream no more / Sing to your children / The song that's in your heart / Don't let the wicked, wicked world keep you apart / We've all seen a fair share / Lost in sacrifice / Walk through the darkness / Searching for some guiding light / (Cause we all fall down / In the cold, cold ground / We don't dream no more / We won't dream anymore / Dream no more)

Lyrics:

We live and breathe / In times of desperation / That's the unfortunate truth / These desperate times / They call for desperate measures / We've sharpened every last tooth / In victory go the spoils in the battle for the crown / Leave them lying face down in the mud / We're the keepers of the kingdom / We're the rulers of the realm / We're the dealers / Though we deal in blood / "In god we trust" / So speaks our nation's motto / We've got the lord on our side / He works for us / His actions and decisions / Are righteously justified

Lyrics:

Stay in between / LInes on the interstate / Trying to concentrate / keep travilling through space and time / daily routine / Room keys and checkout times / road maps and traffic signs / the past is far behind / Living between / Late nights and cloudy days / Phone calls for far away / keep moving on down the line / Working up steam / Clouds tend to disappear / Fate in the rearview mirror / no looking back / the past, the past is far behind / my heart is the time between / to wonder is not a sin /time /time / rusty old hearts and time machines / sworn not to see / homesick and hollowed out / nothing to write home about / keep moving on / through space in time / stuck in between / the wave of history / the future is a mystery / no looking back / the past, the past is far behind/ my heart is a time machine / wondered it aint asleep / time / time / rusty old hearts and time machines / time /time / broken down hearts and time machines / whoah / whoah / whoah /whoah

Lyrics:

These arterial rode ways Carry apathy indifferently From horrid day rest ill To its unfeeling extremities In between the rise and falls on an empire Light from the campfire faded away History writes itself on the faces Of people and places With traces of gray As dark Marcus sleeps at night This town dreams in black and white Oh no no A hell filled with vampires Can a wound go unrecognized See the ghost of the death tonight As a freightliner rumbles by In between the rise and falls on an empire Light from the campfire faded away History writes itself on the faces Of people and places With traces of gray In between the rise and falls on an empire Light from the campfire faded away History writes itself on the faces Of people and places With traces of gray

Lyrics:

I'm leaving on the early train tomorrow / I'm leaving on the early train tomorrow / I'm going where the devil cannot follow / I'm taking only what I need to get by / Im taking only what I need to get by / The open road is the only code I live by / And I'll be / Here between / The lines / I will be / Disappearing kind / I'm leaving this old city far behing me / I'm leaving this old city far behind me / I'm going where the devil, he can't find me / And when I reach my final destination / And when I reach my final destination / I'm leaving all my troubles at the station / And I'll be / Here between / The lines / I will be / A disappearing kind / Yes, I'll be / A disappearing kind

Lyrics:

At a show last Saturday in Nashville, Tennessee / The owner said the turnout was only half what it should be / He didn't ask for anything beyond our guarantee / He just left us twisted in the breeze / Now its seven in the morning / We've been driving all night long / I thought that I might get some sleep before the break of dawn / But I'm still here behind the wheel in the early morning light / Thirteen miles to empty and there's no relief in sight / Well trouble's waiting around the corner nearly every turn / Follow close behind us, you might see our bridges burn / If it weren't for bad luck, we wouldn't have luck at all / Banging our heads up against the wall / Now its seven in the evening / Running late for another show / Gone three hundred miles today / Got sixty more to go / Now I hope that we don't run out of gas / I've got a feeling that we might / Thirteen miles to empty and there's no relief in sight / Riding on four bald tires / And we haven't got a spare / Heading back to town / But we might not make it there / Its awful far to travel when you can't afford the gas / Feels just like we're going nowhere fast / Now its seven in the morning / And we've been driving all night long / I thought I might get some sleep tonight before the break of dawn / But I'm still here behind the wheel in the early morning light / Thirteen miles to empty and there's no relief in sight / Thirteen miles to empty and there's no relief in sight

1,2,1,2,3 / I'd write your name across the sky my dear / I have an aeroplane / I'd grant you each and every wish my dear / If I had a magic wish machine / I can write a song / You can sing along / Keep it in your heart where it belongs / I'd show you mysteries of the sea my dear / If I had a submarine / I'd buy for you most everything my dear / If I had a magic cashine my dear / I can write a song / You can sing along / Keep it in your heart where it belongs / This declaration / My feelings for you / I'd write your name across the moon, my dear / If I had a way to do it / I'd search through time and space for you, my dear / If I had a working time machine / I can write a song / You can sing along / Keep it in your heart where it belongs

Lyrics:

See where they sift on weekends / At a diner on the northside of town / She walks the floor / Those nights until four / Serving coffee, the bar's closed down / They start filing in at 2:30 AM / They stumble and fumble about / Seems out of place / A sad smile on her face / Cause on the inside she just wants to shout / The truckers in the diner all know her by name / Say since you've got sober this town ain't the same / Katharine don't fall off that wagon / Dragging your burden around / Sooner or later its bound to get better again / It can't get worse than it is for you now / She clocks out and walks home the long way / Stopping off at the all night five ten / Cigarettes, lottery tickets / Thinking someday my luck will come in / She comes home to a messy apartment / And a tall stack of overdue bills / She opens up the medicine cabinet / Takes a hard look at new sleeping pills / Looks in the mirror / And then looks away / And then hears herself say / Katharine don't fall of that wagon / Dragging your burden around / Sooner or later its bound to get better / It can't get no worse for you now / Katharine is 11 months sober / She's got sponsors and meetings and steps / She walks the line one day a time / She cries when she's all by herself / Thinks back to 11 months prior / Waking up behind the wheel of a car / Keys in her hand / She tried but she can't recall / Getting home from the bar / That day was a special occasion / Her only daughter was set to be wed / She talk a few shots / Got drunk and forgot / Spent the afternoon passed out in bed/ Mother and daughter haven't spoke since that day / She looks at that phone and wonders / What would I say /Katharine don't fall of that wagon / Dragging your burden around / Sooner or later its bound to get better / It can't get no worse for you now

Lyrics:

Ava was the eldest and most sinister indeed motives were self serving and her actions ruled by greed she had a closet full of skeletons just dying to be freed she was poisoned by a feather that she wore up on her hat Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat okay Well Susan was the lazy one she rarely left her bed When asked to do the dishes she might take a nap instead She died peaceful in her slumber so the other sister said So they found her lifeless body lying on the welcome mat Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat okay Well Isabel was burdened with a lustful appetite Driven by desire She kept a different lover nearly every night She was murdered by a drifter out behind the laundromat Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat Ira was an angry woman terribly high strung It didn’t take a lot for her spring to come unsprung Was often short of temper and just as often sharp of tongue Well she gave herself a heart attack can you imagine that Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat okay Jade was often jealous of her sister’s attributes Wasn’t fair they had so many while she had so few She flirted with her sisters to design a 3 piece suit Finally killed her like curiosity killed the cat Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat alright Raven had a hunger that was seldom satisfied Heaven knows she tried to fill the emptiness inside Gorging and devouring till the day she died And they found her doubled over at the table where she sat Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat okay Gloria was the youngest and the fairest of them all Closest friend and lover was the mirror on the wall Till the day it shattered on the floor there in the hall Well she caught her death of loneliness not long after that Song of seven sisters in a single bedroom flat okay

Lyrics:

Sam's an old blues singer / With a checkered history / Twenty minutes in the spotlight / Twenty years in infamy / The decades flew right past and left him drifting through the haze / Now he's heading the road a little ways / To an old familiar story in and old familiar keys / Crooked chords on rusty strings / and a borrowed melody / Its hard to tell the singer from the sad old song he plays / He's heading down the road a little ways / Sam's a little wiser / And longer in the tooth / His candle burned much brighter when he was in his youth / But he'll keep on moving to avoid the undertaker's gaze / He's heading the road a little ways / World is filled with empty bars / And late night caberet's / He's heading down the road a little ways.

Lyrics:

Church bells rang out in the streets / For the men coming home from overseas / And our town breathed a sigh of relief / Like a curse had been lifted / Well we stand while we watch the parade / we ate popcorn and drank lemonade / With the sun on the faces / We played the streets of New England / I can see when he stepped of the bus / As he made his way over to us / He's not the same man as he was / Before he enlisted / And she stood over there alone in the door / And said "Mama dont cry anymore / Now that daddy's come home from the war / Everthing's gonna be different" / When the hot summer sun went down / Mama put on her green evening gown / They went out for a night on the town / The streets of New England
