Divided We Fall

Hey Now

I'm waiting for the night
that your memory will bring 
It's minutes away 
for me an eternity 

I listen to the trivial silence 
that the puppets reject
cyclops of the night 
redeemer of nothingness

Absorbed in my thoughts
lying on my old bed 
I open my eyes again 
seeing the light of my soul

night give me your peace
night your darkness
night your immensity
night (night) 

night give me your peace
night your darkness
night your immensity
night (night) 

and if I look into your eyes 
I only find the reproach
of a crazy night 
that changed my life
On the sidewalks of the night 
searching  on the corners 
that look of yours 
that stole the moon

I'm waiting for the night
that your memory will bring 
It's minutes away 
for me an eternity 

night give me your peace
night your darkness
night your immensity
night (night) 

only this blues brights on me
with its halo of mystery 
and in the night moon 
you give me life

night give me your peace
night your darkness
night your immensity
night (night) 

night give me your peace
night your darkness
only this blues brights on me
with its halo of mystery 
and in the night moon 
you give me life (life)your immensity
night (night)

With The Future Ain’t What It Used To Be, Bleu Edmondson’s long-awaited follow-up to 2007’s critically acclaimed Lost Boy, the southern-fried country rocker embarked on a search for truth, stripping back layers of regret, loss, and longing to uncover a renewed, albeit somewhat painfully soul-baring, view of himself and the world around him.  He dug deeper into what the music meant to him as a musician, a writer and a man. “Writing is like holding up a mirror to those darkest corners of our lives that we keep hidden,” confides the raspy-throated singer.  “It’s not always a pretty reflection, but it’s real and it matters.”  The collection of songs ministers to the saint and the sinner in each of us. It is an amalgamation of those touch points and influences that give us permission to question, confront and raise a little hell on Saturday night.
             Bleu’s early years were spent focused on sports rather than music.  He picked up a guitar for the first time during his college years, learned a few chords and his future was set.  Bleu soon discovered that some of his favorite musical acts – Robert Earl Keen, Radney Foster, Uncle Tupelo – shared a common thread: Lloyd Maines either produced or played steel guitar on their recordings.  A short time later, using a tape player in his dorm room, Bleu made guitar/vocal demos of some of his songs and sent the tape to Maines.  Quickly recognizing the raw talent on that homemade cassette tape, Maines contacted Bleu and ultimately became his producer.  The pairing made two records together – Southland and The Band Plays On – and Bleu credits Maines with giving him his start in the music business.
