Outside, the body went back
To the place where it all fell apart
And she said, “Outside the body went back,
And it’s always going to feel like that”
Inside, the body set free
In the place where it all came apart
And she said, “Inside the body set free,
And you know you’re coming home with me”
Wake up, the body went cold
In the bed where we slept
And she said, “Wake up, the body went cold,
I am only here to hold”
Drop dead, the body went slack
In the bed where we wept
And she said, “Drop dead, the body went slack,
I am only leaving to come back”

Rock The Machine

I'm losing will love
My hands are soft as cotton gloves
Machine has eaten up my job
My meaning, my cause
Machine with the strength of a hundred men,
Can't feed and clothe my children,
Can't greet a sailor coming in,
Or know of desperation
I shovel coal down Spencer's dock
I took you dear into wedlock
And you did bear us a beautiful flock,
River rock the machine down on the dock
River rock the machine until it stops
Oh Low Liffey, show me gold!
Like a heron I will go
Roaring Liffey when you're high
Like a cormorant I will dive
The gold will glow I will rise,
With gold enough to win back time
With gold enough to win back pride
River rock the machine until it dies
Today dear I'm unemployed
Before I spoke you read my eyes
I feared of nothing or no one
But I feel old and I'm so young
I miss the graft I miss the boys,
I plead for purpose in the void
Time is inward, ticking tighter,
I wish my load was a mountain lighter
I shovel coal down Spencer's dock
I took you dear into wedlock
And you did bear us a beautiful flock,
River rock the machine down on the dock
River rock the machine until it stops
Oh Low Liffey, show me gold!
Like a heron I will go
Roaring Liffey when you're high
Like a cormorant I will dive
The gold wind glow I will rise,
With gold enough to win back time
With gold enough to win back pride
River rock the machine until it dies
River rock the machine down on the dock
River rock the machine until it stops

Manzanita

I got high in Manzanita
As the ocean drowned my feet
I saw you upon the moon
How’d you get there? I’ll be there soon
You, in your car waiting steady
Me, in my room getting ready
I see you from my front window
How’d you get there arms akimbo?
Istanbul to Berlin, baby
Tell me when you touch down safely
You say you’ve found your new lover
Why are you so under covers?
I call you from Mt. Tabor
And you in your room in New York
On the plane, I board it heavy
Please don’t leave me, I am almost ready
