Burnt out at Both Ends

Burning

Gravel tongue and a lantern sky,
She left in smoke without goodbye.
Breath turned black on windowpane,
I dream of rust and acid rain.

[Verse 2]
Her laugh still stains the maple floor,
Like blood beneath a cellar door.
Eyes stitched shut with threads and bone,
She sings through roots that crack my home.

[Hook]
I wear her name like steel wire,
Coiled tight around my throat.
The tree don’t bend the leash won't break,
I’m just bark,  bone and smoke.

[Verse 3]
Cracked memory echo holds faint,
Of nails and silk and drying paint.
Each step’s a thorn through shards of glass,
She speaks through me—but she never asks.

[Bridge]
Tetherbone, my tetherbone,
Bark for ghosts but liv alone.
She carved her name in bark and thread,
Now I'm left with what she bled.

[Hook – Repeat with slight variation]
I howl but no gods descend.
Her name's the rune I bend.
The collar's carved in stone and flame—
It drinks my breath. It speaks her name.


[Outro – whisper fade, like a prayer]
Crows don’t sing where love once lay,
Just creak and moan the wood will sway.
Tied to time, leashed to a tree,
And none but silence speaks for me.

Tether Bone

Album track from 'DIVE!' (out 5 June), written and sung by bassist Allan Wiseman, featuring lead guitar by christopher rye (who also produced the song). Band trivia: christopher added (and sang) the line "but not for me!" as his response to hearing the title was "NO IT ISN'T!" Unusually, the gorgeous sounding lead guitar was recorded using a Chapman ML3 instead of christopher's Strat.

DIVE!

Forgiving is Easy

I'm Still Yours

Lyrics

Intro – Spoken/half-sung, atmospheric]
Yeah, they trim the trees,
They rake the fire away.
Build fences strong,
But can’t outrun the laws today.

[Verse 1]
Juan’s got a scar that runs ear to chin,
Said it came from Sonora, not from sin.
He brings his boy on Sundays, just to play
Near the pool he’ll never swim in anyway.

[Verse 2]
Mowin’ lawns under redwood shade,
Hands in dirt while the rich get paid.
Sings to the birds in broken slang—
Every word feels like a chain that hangs.

[Verse 3]
They came last night in unmarked vans,
Took three men like they weren’t even men.
Left their tools in the morning dew,
Leaf blowers still, boots filled with truth.

Verse – Chicano’s Voice]
I send my pay to a border town,
Where mamá lights candles when the sun goes down.
My name’s not ‘hey’ or ‘you in the hat
I got stories, but no time for that.


[Bridge – whispered, rising tension]
Is this freedom, is this fear?
Do we only welcome those we mirror?
My friend cries but hides his face—
Guilt’s a shadow you can’t erase.

[Final Chorus – crescendo, all-out delivery]
They build your world and vanish in the smoke,
Names unspoken, dreams that broke.
You walk on marble, they crawl through flames,
Still you can’t even learn their names.
No green card, no last call—
But they stood taller than us all.

Lyrics:

Yellow and Red (Gold & Red)
By: Russell Nomer July 24, 2025  

Sunrise on a Thursday, Plainview feels too quiet 
Scrollin' through the headlines, trying to deny it 
Takes me back to childhood, a fuzzy TV screen 
A larger-than-life power, a brand new kind of scene 
With a tearin' of the T-shirt and a cupping of the ear 
You showed the world a strength that could conquer any fear 
You were more than just a wrestler, you were a lightning strike 
In yellow and in red, on my rusty ten-speed bike.

And oh, "Whatcha gonna do?" now that you're gone? 
When the prayers and vitamins can't help us carry on? 
You were a real American, a hero to the end 
The world got a little darker today, my brother, my friend. 
Hulkamania's runnin' quiet, a flag is at half-mast 
A legacy in gold and red, that was built to last.

We all tied on our bandanas, we all did the flexing pose 
From Madison Square Garden, to wherever the story goes 
Your theme song lit the rafters, gave our hearts a song 
Your fire taught me courage when the nights felt long.

And oh, "Whatcha gonna do?" now that you're gone? 
When the prayers and vitamins still help us carry on? 
You were a real American, a spark that never bends 
The world lost a true legend today, my brother, my friend. 
Hulkamania's runnin' quiet, a flag is at half-mast 
A legacy in gold and red, that was built to last.

The roar of the arena, it slowly fades away 
The script is put aside now at the closing of the day 
The body pays the cost for the giant that it holds 
And the story of the man is the greatest one that's told 
So Terry takes a final bow, when the curtain has to fall 
Behind the 'stache, you stood up straight and gave us all your all.

And oh, "Whatcha gonna do?" now that you're gone?! 
Our prayers and vitamins WILL help us carry on! 

 'Cause you were a real American, a hero to the end! 
And we'll never ever forget you, my brother, my friend! 
Hulkamania's runnin' forever, it'll never be the past! 
Your legacy in gold and red was BUILT TO LAST!

"Whatcha gonna do, brother..."
