Needle drop, vinyl plays
Transitions, perfect fade
From the record crate to Maxell XL tape
Side B on the phonograph
Second to the last track
Just made the cut on Maxell XL tape
Can't dial it on a phone
Wanna hear that song
Lost mix tape
Cupid for the cover art
Spine said summer with a hand drawn heart
Red painted sides on Maxell XL tape
Can't dial it on a phone
Wanna hear that song
Lost mix tape
Dreamt of you the other day
You were still that perfect age
Fell in love with that song on Maxell XL tape
Can't dial it on a phone
Wanna hear that song
Lost Mix Tape
Can't dial it on a phone
Wanna hear that song
Lost mix tape

The Fallen

Down you go
Who's your savior
Save yourself
Swallow your pride
He's the great
Make it real now
Suspend yourself from reason
I don't know what he's saying
I don't know
I can't believe he said
You're one of us
You can't say no
You know
He's the savior
He's the one
Drives you insane
He's the path
He's the devil
Choose a side
Where did truth go?
He's the one
He's the savior
He's a sign
God damn your pride
I don't know where we're going
But I know just where we've been
My friend
My friend

Don't Wait Up

Seems like we made a big mistake
Somehow out of luck, out of place
Seduced by a beacon in the night
Only to burn in the light
Hands down I'm ready to go
Your ace is high I've been played don't you know
Have a few moves ahead you'll see
And it's involving him not me
So don't wait up for me I'm gone
Don't wait up for me I'm gone
Played you my last sad song
All I asked of you was to sing along
So don't wait up for me I"m gone
Don't wait up for me I'm gone
You hit me one too many times
Playing blackjack and lost in your eyes
The house always wins in time
You can speed it along with whiskey and wine
You cannot stop the man
Who's sober enough to finally understand
So don't wait up for me I'm gone
Don't wait up for me I'm gone
Picked my pride up at your door
Secured accounts ain't coming back no more
So don't wait up for me I'm gone
Don't wait up for me I'm gone
I'm gone Lady Luck I'm gone
I'm gone Lady Luck I'm gone

Just Let Go
03:58

High above the winding streets
Overlook fog's canopy
Breathing in the fresh air
All is well we'll be ok
Momentarily unaware
At least for this new day
Just let go
Just let go
The world's gone crazy I don't care
Static on the radio
Can't pull a signal up here
Dodging all the meteorites
Communication satellites
Letting go of earth's pull
Just let go
Just let go
A stunning blue simplicity
All of life humanity
Zero gravity pull
Then a free fall from eternity
Plunging towards the ocean's deep
And waking before we hit floor
Just let go...

Lonesome After Dark Seattle, Washington
The approach may change from record to record, but at its core are the songs. Songs of optimism and concern, nostalgia and anxiety, dreams, fears and the love of a well constructed song.
