Track Name: Swamp
She appears wide eyed and eager
But shes a sickly girl with a fever
Shes a down right good book believer
Oh she talks and talks and talks

Oh the days are getting colder
I start to shrug off all of my armor
I'm in desperate need of color
Oh she stole she stole she stole

She told me, she told me, she told me
Life was too long
She told me, she told me, she told me
The future aint ours

I held my lover close, clenched and warm
As we entered the storm

She told me, she told me, she told me
Life was too long
She told me, she told me, she told me
The future aint ours
Track Name: Little One
Little one I see
I see us struggling to be
Little one I feel
I feel us troubling the sea

Cause I believe I'm coming around too fast
You're stride is long I'm afraid I'm falling back
So who can tell me what its like to live free
Absolutely no one ya see

Little one I hear
I hear the sky calling mercy
Little one I taste
I taste the earth's torment
Struggling to be

Cause I believe I'm coming around too fast
You're stride is long I'm afraid I'm falling back
So who can tell me what its like to live free
Absolutely no one ya see
Track Name: Vagabond
So we throw it to the wind
And I can't help seem to begin
To understand why I lead this burden onto me
So I throw my sails as high as they go
And I hope to salvation it will lead

Back once again my heels wearing thin
I walk with nothing to my name
Crashed my mast onto unfettered land
Of wavy haze and deathly gaze

Oh vagabond lift your head from wild and weary sleep
Home is wherever you want it to be
Track Name: Across The Pond
In and out of sleep
I'm living through dreams
The war is coming

Comfort these days is made
Of soundless machines
Oh they make out of greed
Oh they take out of greed

Everything I've lost is everything I've gained

I move my tongue in remembered praise
Of names and faces now buried in the earth
Oh it holds and folds, and then swallows

Stories strained through the worn and torn
Morning grains just before the storm
The earth it sings and beckons me home

Everything I've lost is everything I've gained
Track Name: Mustache On Purpose
Its so strange the knot is tied
I did what I thought was right
Misguided by city lights

Way down low a fire burns to keep control

Drinking for a reason
To bring back memories of
Years past when we were singing
The tracks we use to listen

Way down low a fire burns to keep control
