LYRICS:

There is a buoyancy to life
Resiliency you can bounce back from the knife
And when you ride that tide

You hit the grand slam
There is a new champ
New chapter, second verse if you’re singin songs there is no curse

Ay yay yay yay yay yay yooooooo

Explosions in the rearview
I heard the evil yell
But you are the sky that’s in the windshield

You hit the grand slam
There is a new champ
New chapter, second verse, singin songs you beat the curse

Beat the Curse

Beat The Curse (Ted Bowne Remix)

Swimming off of Jimkata's EP Feel In Light Remixed by Stephen Learson of Psychic Spies and The Indobox.

Swimming (Psychic Spies Remix)

Cheap pack of indian smokes
In the snow on the side of the road in Painted Post
Ditched my tribe for a ride on the wild west express
I just had to get out before I get older and wonder
Did I leave my best times behind?
Did I ditch the risk for the comfort


Of home?
It’s the love that you will always know


Buy a cheap fan at the drug store behind the precinct
On a hot night in the city dream of dragon flies in the cool countryside
And at night the sky the sky the stars are bright my poor sight
And now we see the light

Of home
It’s the love that you will always know

Older and Wonder

When it feels like the road race is ragin’
And you’re losin loves you can’t replace
You just look up you’re climbing out the basement
You’re only missing much, if it’s backwards you are facing

Cause it’s perfect in the moment and then it’s gone
It’s only here for so long
And you’ve gotta love the moment before it’s gone
It’s only here until the song is over

And it ain’t easy to admit that you were thinkin you were wrong
But I don’t want to lose you over stupid shit cause we were drunk
And we could count the minutes to infinity but you know that’d be dumb
Cause I’m here with you now my only one

And we’re spinning round the sun
Only so much time but all this planning
We make when we are young 
And all things in motion

Cause it’s perfect in the moment and then it’s gone
It’s only for so long
And you’ve gotta love the moment before it’s gone
It’s only until this song is over

In The Moment

When the innocence starts to fade
When in my mind I hope that it stays
Never far away from me
If I get bothered by the ins and outs
the petty things, my little doubts
Will you come and stop me

If you go far away
We wont start to fade
Cause we won’t lose the innocence

If I find myself travelling
in the same old patterns
Making my own disasters 
Don’t let me complain
Instead we could shake it like a can of paint
We could push it to the edge of insane
Break bottles of champagne

If you go far away
We wont start to fade
Cause we won’t lose the innocence

We cannot live forever
But you could make that case to me
And I would believe you
Unless the innocence starts to fade

If you go far away
We wont start to fade
Cause we won’t lose the innocence

Innocence

Son, Son, theres some things that you should know
Theres some places you should never go
For your safety
But if you make it through safely
You can Ride the Wave

You can ride the wave
Past the things you cannot
You cannot ever change
Nothing stays the same
But its okay, yea, its okay

My dear daughter, theres some things that you should know
theres a place that you can always go
if you’re lost and low
its called home

You can ride the wave
Past the things you cannot
You cannot ever change
Nothing stays the same
But its okay, yea, its okay


Friends may come and love may go
I know this to be true
As long as you have love my dear
I’ll ride the waves with you

You can ride the wave
Past the things you cannot
You cannot ever change
Nothing stays the same
But its okay, yea, its okay

Ride The Wave

Nothing exists without taking a chance 
I’ve Learned that in life you should have some demands
All of this time you could sit on your hands
With that in mind, darling, tell me your plans 

Do you go jumping out of airplanes
When theres fire below
they try to tell you to ease up 
but you double down
Are you in love with danger
Do you have love in your heart
Tell me could you love this stranger
Would you double down?


Were you born with a sense of the street?
You got the grit and you wont take defeat
Ditch it all and ya head for the beach
Hop the fence breath it in sweat is sweet


Do you go jumping out of airplanes
When theres fire below
they try to tell you to ease up 
but you double down
Are you in love with danger
Do you have love in your heart
Tell me could you love this stranger
Would you double down?


And if we break the law
If we drop the jaws of those surrounding us
If the risk is the reward you’re looking for
Open the door, pull the cord, and fly away


Do you go jumping out of airplanes
When theres fire below
they try to tell you to ease up 
but you double down
Are you in love with danger
Do you have love in your heart
Tell me could you love this stranger
Would you double down?

Jumping Out of Airplanes

Morning comes slowly out from the eastern skies
There is no warning for wanting to say Goodbye
This hellish weather is pushing us further inside
How long can a summer bird stay the winter and still be alive?

You can build me up
But you can’t tear me down
These stairs are made of stone
I won’t be kicked around 

I have seen many seasons and learned things that opened my eyes
But even the wise ones find heart to be stronger than mind
These wheels must move forward can’t sift through the dust that’s behind
How long can a summer bird stay the winter and still be alive?

You can build me up
But you can’t tear me down
These stairs are made of stone
I won’t be kicked around

Build Me Up

Jimkata's newest fan-funded record "In Motion" out 2.12.16!

I thought we lost you
Thought you was down and out and you couldn’t see
Turns out I was wrong, dear
and you are much stronger than me

So when we go out tonight
We will lift you high
And I’ll be by your side
Cause you know that you survived
A wild, wild ride

In this adventure there are things you cannot predict
Behind each doorway there may be shadows but they’ll never stick
You are a force to be reckoned with
You are a dreamer, a saint, stronger than wire
You wont be cheated by
Any crooks, any thiefs, any liars

So when we go out tonight
We will lift you high
And I’ll be by your side
Cause you know that you survived
A wild, wild ride

Wild Ride

There are times
When it seems like you can’t see around the bend
When its dark and the winding roads don’t ever seem to end
You are in the front seat with me
I don’t know much
I know you are my friend


I won’t let you down
I won’t let you down
Cause love comes easy to me
And I won’t let you down


You’re playing in the green grass
Dusting off the roses
I’m setting up my high hopes
You’re jumping from the top ropes
and swinging from the rafters
Drunk on all the laughter
A million mornings after 


And if it comes easy
I won’t let you down

Won't Let You Down

At night the ceremony begins
Your eyes and my occasional whims

All of my synapses
Light up with their disregard
For what I intended
It’s not what I meant but
It’s better than my silly plans


All in an instant, I feel it in me
No Control
And there’s no point in resisting
that which you think will make you whole 
I’m either stupid or I’m the wisest man alive

And the shock to my system
is better than just getting by


And all of my synapses 
Light up with their disregard 
It's not what I meant but 
It's better than my silly plans

And love it will find you
With all of its disregard 
For what you intended

Not what I meant but
It’s better than my silly plans

Synapses
