lyrics

Waiting on a train
Miles away from where there is a station
Gone against the grain
Fields of opportunity stagnation

You can’t separate your handiwork from your defeats
You don’t even have a history to repeat
This spring will April bring showers or fools

What plays in your mind when the lights go dim
A call to start or to start again
Is it songs that make the world seem right
Or just the sounds that keep you up at night

Have a little faith
Only when your eyes can see the future
Give a little space
For time to show it has a sense of humor

They stole your masterpiece and left you just a piece of the master
Who knew the business was full of so many bastards
The arc of the diver just bends towards the bottom of the pool

What plays in your mind when the lights go dim
A call to start or to start again
Is it songs that make the world seem right
Or just the sounds that keep you up at night

Shouldn’t good grace deliver great salvation
But you traded an eye for annihilation
The blessing and the curse of the exception to the rule

What plays in your mind when the lights go dim
A call to start or to start again
Is it songs that make the world seem right
Or just the sounds that keep you up at night

"Just when a tune has ingratiated itself into your memory, in the way the kind of pop music does that inspires one to whistle, the melody sweeps upward, turning and dancing in that unpredictable way that a flock of birds does when it moves toward the sun." (SN&R)
"Lush with strings, angelic harmonies and melodies that swoop and soar like a hook-laden roller coaster"(Sacramento Bee)
