Yes

Colours yet to be found
compound into just one sound
Yeah
Stick out your tongue to feel
the pigeon toed orange peel
Yeah
The silver smoke you see
from plants & magic weeds
Yeah
Close all your eyes and breathe
in and then out with me
Yeah
She's holding hands with me
up on the silver screen
Yeah
I'm a mirror and so is she
we reflect infinitely
Yeah
And of all those things we see
we'll be who we wanna be
Yeah
And that is the time to know
to let the ego go
Yeah

Smile

I will make you smile
if you sit here a little while
And you know that its true
I'm lookin' at you
Oh little girl
I'd take on the law for you
and not to be outdone
like Bonnie and Clyde on the run
and everything
I wanna ride with you
& do everything new
So you know that I'm down
for blowin' outta this old town

Walkin' around
Work brings me down
I need something new
like nothing to do
Home is wherever I lay
and I can sleep all day
The World is so crazy
that its making me lazy
Gonna be like the breeze
and go where I please
Home is wherever I lay
and I can sleep all day
The bills are already paid
and I can sleep all day
My mind has traveled far away
and I haven't eaten all day
but no man alive can tell me what to say
Bumming around
after nights gone long
Like in a Lee
Hazlewood song

Not seeing what is total exposure
Light her smoke like in Now Voyager
The films' stuck burning in the projector
and your heads on the track
your listening for the train
Everything comes this way
The new direction's today
But be that as it may
it's going to run you over
On the fire is the world's last letter
A crayon cat runs around on the paper
If you don't drink the first,
you wont get the second
With your head on the track
your listening for the train
Everything comes this way
The new direction's today
But be that as it may
it's going to run you over

Change My Mind
03:54
|
|||
The next time I changed my mind
was the last time I saw your face
In my memory now hard to define
diffused behind a sheet of lace
The fist time I changed my mind
the heightened awareness to the color
of love that may not be blind
just one eye open and not the other
The last time I changed my mind
I caught a bus and went far away
I didn't know what I would find
and that it would be just another day

Mirage
03:42
|

Asleep in the car
Silver skies over lonely roads
Rain on the windshield reflects all the wrongs of the past
Wet leaves fall from the trees
like children's forgotten dreams
Old paper flowers
for empty conventions
What are you going to say on
the night of the following day?
Girl don't be afraid
let 'em all fall down where they may
Tiny wooden mannequin
reflecting light of red and blue
Your spinning round and round
the whole world blurs for you
They'll throw confetti In your grave
but don't let it bring you down
These are our Eastman Color days

Two Daisies
02:31
|

I don't know what you came here looking for
but maybe its trapped between your face & the floor
Your worn out I'm feeling beat
My mouths all bloody from cuttin' my teeth
Riding me around in a shopping cart
pulling antennas offa police cars
Tomorrow will come
and burn this all away
I wanna laugh with my friends
if the world is gonna end
Falling off the rock in white light of day
don't pay attention its hard to explain
Now pass those bottles of silver and gold
See-saw on top of the scaffold
They're gonna blow it up it is what they always say
I'm gonna get my kicks before it goes up in flames

Radio Silence
03:20
|

Your not like me
I never lost control
Your face I see
the fake out #4
The rest to me
splattered on the floor
Don't put on me
you know where you can go
And I watch you play the part
of the whole world caving in
In the emotional violence
I'm on radio silence
Today we'll see
what are you fighting for?
It's not for free
you can't take anymore
Exclusively hangups need company
Don't ask of me
you know where you can go

Sail On
05:07
|
|||
Every day at 6 am
it all starts right over again
One and Two then Three & more
Every day bigger than before
Well you can break all the walls down
but inside you still won't find it
and you can burn down all of the bridges
cause it's gonna sail on forever
In the first rays of the sun
they see you now don't try to run
And even if you play the game
they'll want to eat you just the same
We've all heard you say it was better than today
then how did it all get away
Were you there or do you just like to say
did you even know you threw it away?

Unknown pleasures
behind the doors
You want to break them all down
Tonight echoes
they're gonna hear yours
All the rest just fade away
Don't let the fuckers bring you down
Shadows mean nothing in the night
Don't let the fuckers bring you down
Shadows mean nothing to the night
Unknown pleasures
behind the doors
You want to break them all down
Tonight echoes
you wanna hear more
All the rest just fade away
Don't let the fuckers bring you down
shadows mean nothing in the night
Don't let the fuckers bring you down
shadows mean nothing to the night
Don't let the fuckers bring you down
shadows mean nothing in the night
