High Above 03:30
That’s right I know enough not to pick a fight I’m heading out into the moonlight Keep ridin’ ‘til this town is out of sight That’s right But wait You make it hard for me to concentrate You shoulda never seen me in this state The time has come to make my grand escape But wait So pack your suitcase Vanish without a trace They’re hungry for your drug High above High above Right now There’s little left for me to do but bow I always knew I’d get here soon, but how? More soul than Heaven will allow Right now I’m here But any moment I could disappear That sounds like music to my ears Cause I’m not about to live in shame and fear I’m here So pack your suitcase Vanish without a trace They’re hungry for your drug High above High above So pack your suitcase Vanish without a trace They’re hungry for your drug High above High above © 2018 Matt Stanley/Sean Poissant (SOCAN)

I’m headin’ south Feels right where I wanna be I’m headin’ south Feels right where I wanna be Make my way to California Feel that Pacific Ocean breeze Sittin’ in a circle And passing the guitar around Sittin’ in a circle And passing the guitar around I don’t know you, but I love you Show me where freedom can be found Take a cruise on the 101 Breathe in the Malibi air Don’t worry ‘bout the money, honey Our skies are forever clear Little woman See you walkin’ ‘long the trail Little woman See you walkin’ ‘long the trail See you pickin’ wild flowers See you place them in your hair © 2018 Matt Stanley/Sean Poissant (SOCAN)

What’s there to see across the water? What’s there to see under the Sun? You don’t have time, so don’t even bother And you won’t have time to see the damage done Follow the path and see where it takes you You got direction inside your mind Everybody dies but maybe you can save me You might be the ramblin’ kind We started driving on down the highway Turn the radio on and leave the blues behind We kept driving long past sunset We were ridin’ a line of our own design Follow the path and see where it takes you You got direction inside your mind Everybody dies but maybe you can save me You might be the ramblin’ kind Sleep under a willow Jacket as a pillow Head full of dreams that are so divine Home is where you make it Offer it I’ll take it Ain’t no better way to spend your time What will the road offer us tomorrow? What will fate have us do? You might see me beg, steal or borrow As we’re moving on to somewhere new Follow the path and see where it takes you You got direction inside your mind Everybody dies but maybe you can save me You might be the ramblin’ kind The ramblin’ kind, the ramblin’ kind The ramblin’ kind, the ramblin’ kind The ramblin’ kind, the ramblin’ kind The ramblin’ kind, the ramblin’ kind © 2018 Matt Stanley/Sean Poissant (SOCAN)

When I get down I get really down And there’s nothing I can do to turn it off Won’t you hold me close? Won’t you help me stand? Let me be in your arms again I’ve fallen asleep Asleep behind the wheel So many times, I’m surprised I’m still alive But in my dreams It’s the way it was back then When I could be in your arms again Have I changed? Do you recognize me still? Sometimes I think I’ve forgotten how to feel As seasons pass Will I ever learn to heal? I’d give anything to know that it’s for real So sit back down No, don’t walk away Don’t walk away and leave me on my own ‘cause I need your touch I need to pretend I can be in your arms again Have I changed? Do you recognize me still? Sometimes I think I’ve forgotten how to feel As seasons pass Will I ever learn to heal? I’d give anything to know that it’s for real When I get down I get really down And there’s nothing I can do to turn it off Won’t you hold me close? Won’t you help me stand? Let me be in your arms again Won’t you let me be in your arms again? Won’t you let me be in your arms again? © 2018 Matt Stanley/Sean Poissant (SOCAN)

The awakening The dawning Mind’s conspire in the rooms they’re haunting Mountains of smoke and fire Hearts bleeding through an amplifier Let your voice come and heal me Let your words ring true You crucified yourself and now it’s The immortal image of you, yeah Until the Sun Swallows the Earth Until the sun, sun, sun, sun Until the Sun Swallows the Earth Until the sun, sun, sun, sun Thought you could take us higher To places where wings are required Everybody’s slow and graceless And sanity lives with the faithless Let the ashes lay in the ground Let the flowers come Let the hands dry the faces And let the songs be sung, yeah Until the Sun Swallows the Earth Until the sun, sun, sun, sun Until the Sun Swallows the Earth Until the sun, sun, sun, sun Let the tortured find their peace Let the light shine through Let it reach all the places And let it be their truth Until the Sun Swallows the Earth Until the sun, sun, sun, sun Until the Sun Swallows the Earth Until the sun, sun, sun, sun © 2018 Matt Stanley/Sean Poissant (SOCAN)

Hey Hey Hey 03:37
Better have one more cigarette Better live tonight before I’m dead Don’t wanna feel like life is taking forever Don’t wanna feel like I’m over it Don’t wanna feel like I’m over it Don’t wanna feel like I’m over it Like I’m over it Don’t wanna wait around to die I’m alright Everything will be fine Hey hey hey I’m alright Everything will be fine Hey hey hey The hallway of mirrors Distracts your mind from what is real And the clock has never been a friend of mine Don’t wanna feel like I’m out of time Don’t wanna feel like I’m out of time Don’t wanna feel like I’m out of time Like I’m out of time Got to get out of my head I’m alright Everything will be fine Hey hey hey I’m alright Everything will be fine Hey hey hey I’m alright Everything will be fine Hey hey hey I’m alright Everything will be fine Hey hey hey Hey hey hey Hey hey hey Hey hey hey Hey hey hey © 2018 Matt Stanley/Sean Poissant (SOCAN)
