Skies The Limit

LYRICS:
I've eaten time for a day now please save my place in your book somehow
I've dug my mental grave barehanded and alone on my own
Some would grip ever sip as tightly as they go

Take a look and you'll see...

Hand over hand to the table for you, save my place in the booth somehow
Endings begin both stable and thin 'til there's no breath to send it through
Some would catch every act as nightly as they show...show what they know

Take a look, lean back, 
Lean back and you'll see
No one's laughing at me
Look close, you might see...

Gonna say the meaning's gone
No one say the dream is gone 
All the things I knew were wrong
All the things you do are wrong
Gonna say the season's gone
Don't say the sea is gone

(Blair: Words, vocals, rhythm/lead guitar, bass, digital drum track.)

I Eat Time

LYRICS:
Just cruisin' around abandoned crime scenes
Diggin' up the bones of the city
Leechin' off the pain and despair of bad dreams
We pour ourselves into the patient evening

Emotional outpourings often prevail in situations of this caliber
Only when time and patience are exercised can calmer heads....fail
Ain't no accountin' for taste in this city
No accountin' for nothin' but who's gunnin' for who

When I feel this way I can taste all the sounds around me
When I breathe this way, I can see through the darkest gloom
I don't know just what is moving through me
I can't tell what this light is doing to me
When I breathe this way
When I feel this way

Still cruising around these same abandoned crime scenes
Continuing to dig up the bones of this city
Leechin' and siphonin' and filterin' the pain of bad dreams
We pour ourselves
We pour ourselves

When I breathe this way, I can taste all the sounds around me
When I breathe this way, I can see through the darkest gloom
I don't know just what is moving through me
I can't tell what this light is doing to me
When I breathe this way
When I breathe this way

Norman he knows when he's got to go and he's got to go when I say
Norman he knows when he's got to go, and he's got to go when I say
Norman he knows when he's got to go and he's got to go when I say
Norman he knows when he's got to go, and he's got to go when I say

Possibly the strongest instrumental track of any songs we recorded, but also possibly the weakest vocal take that we had to use at the time.
