Acoustic demo of Elliott Smith's "Alameda" performed by Indio Romero (guitar and vocals) and Tigra Romero (vocals)

You walk down Alameda
Shuffling your deck of trick cards over everyone
Like some precious only son
Face down, bow to the champion

You walk down Alameda
Looking at the cracks in the sidewalk
Thinking about your friends
How you maintain all them in
A constant state of suspense

For your own protection over their affection
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own
'Cause you can't finish what you start

Walk down Alameda brushing off the nightmares you wish
Could plague me when I'm awake
So now you see, your first mistake
Was thinking that you could relate
For one or two minutes she liked you
But the fix is in

You're all pretension
I never pay attention
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own
'Cause you can't finish what you start
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own
'Cause you can't finish what you start
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own
'Cause you can't finish what you start
Nobody broke your heart
If you're alone it must be you that wants to be apart

Alameda (Elliott Smith cover)

Original song written and performed by Indio Romero

Lyrics:
Hey could you pass the antidote? 
There's an infection in my torso
Traveled back a few million years
Went up into the stratosphere
So ambitiously troublesome
With a heart beating in slow motion
Swimming in a lake of gator tears
Can't turn back, I'm far too near
Let's get out
And escape
Lets get out
Up and away, we go
Falling embers and clouds of smoke
Painted skies and warm echoes
And though the daydream is easy to steer
The nightmare's turning crystal clear
Got an instinct and a taste of blood
Faith in dead bodies above
Got a prescription that'll kill your fears
Can't turn back 'cause I'm far too near 
Let's get out
And escape
Let's get out
Up and away we go
Let's get out
And escape
Let's get out
Up and away we go

Get Out

Up and Away (acoustic demo)

Lyrics::

Good to see you, Ms. beautiful
I’ve dreamt up doubts, as the world's grown cold
Please, darling, be tonight's savior
I’ve trailed the light, become pale through envy's war
I’m so upset
As I hold in my bladed hands
The sound of music
As days go by, the more I have felt
The lingered and wasted time, dancing on a wishing well
Please darling, be tonight's savior
I’ve traveled blind, and I’ve gone too far
I’m so upset
As I hold in my bladed hands
The sound of music
As I hold in my bladed hands
The sound of music
Music
Music
Music
Music

I’ll be your dreamer
As I’m looking up to outer space
Thinking of things that we didn’t say
The awkward silence
Doesn’t feel so bad to me
Didn’t feel like talking anyway

But whenever you like
I’ll come back to you again
As I’m slightly in over my head
Whenever you like
I’ll come back to you again
As I’m slightly in over my head

This world is changing
I’m at odds with inner enemies
Today I think I’ll overtake
The room is quiet
And the sky looks like it’s about to rain
I’ll keep my mind to a brighter day

Thought I saw your face in a passing car
I was getting closer to feeling nothing at all
Dancing under a wave of shooting stars
Dreams might be damaged, but they’re far from gone

'Cause whenever you like
I’ll come back to you again
As I’m slightly in over my head
Whenever you like
I’ll come back to you again
As I’m slightly in over my head
I’m slightly in over my head

Whenever
