Drop everything I do
Step into you

Drop everything I do
Step into you
Life ain’t easy now if you bring me misery
But if you bring me raspberries, bring me raspberries
Ooh ooh

Bring me raspberries, bring me raspberries

Walking through the Hanging Gardens
Feels like the Islands
Promise you we’ll stay alive at least until today
I love the fresh of you
But I love the dirty too
Drop everything I do
Step into you
I love the fresh of you
But I love the dirty too
Drop everything I do
Step into you

Gaslightin'
03:37

And I’m risin’
Gaslightin’
With fear and joy
You broke my back
And my faith again
In life’s promises
And your game
Cold beer drinkin’
Hard liquor sloppin’
I’m in Bukowski’s mirror
And I’m risin’
Gaslight troopers
In limbo stupor
It’s much better with no signal
They’ll shoot themselves down
Before I drown
I didn’t have to pray
Cold beer drinkin’
Hard liquor sloppin’
I’m in Bukowski’s mirror
And I’m risin’
Gaslightin’
With fear and joy
And I’m risin’
Gaslightin’
With fear and joy
And I’m risin’
Gaslightin’
With fear and joy
And I’m risin’
Gaslightin’
With fear and joy
And I’m risin’
Gaslightin’
With fear and joy

We’re circling through the night
At the roundabouts
To pick you up in time
For rounds of doubts
Between the lines
Knowing you is knowing me
It’s easy to fall on your knees
We’ll reset yourself
At a core shaking tree
Inner spring untied in your gut
Yellin’ yeah it’s for the birds
You’re not not going back to the staircase wit
Not freaking out loud
To make you proud
These Roaring Twenties in Montreeyall
These Roaring Twenties in Montreeyall
Are freezin’ boilin’
Montreeyall is freezin’ boilin’
All in all
These Roaring Twenties in Montreeyall
These Roaring Twenties in Montreeyall
Are freezin’ boilin’
Montreeyall is freezin’ boilin’

Gentle On My Mind
03:23
|
|||
It’s knowin’ that your door is always open and your path is free to walk
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed Behind your couch
And it's knowin’ I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that have dried up on some line
That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of my memory
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy planted on their columns
Now that binds me
Or something that somebody said because they thought
We fit together walkin’
It's just knowin’ that the world will not be cursin’ or forgivin’
When I walk along some railroad track and find
That you’re movin’ on the back roads by the rivers of my memory
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind
I dip my cup of soup back from the gurglin’ cracklin’ caldron
In some train yard
My beard a rufflin’ coal pile and a dirty hat pulled low across my face
Through cupped hands 'round a tin can I pretend
I hold you to my breast and find
That you're wavin’ from the back roads by the river of my memories
Ever smilin’ ever gentle on my mind

Encore t’as brisé mon coeur
C’est toujours un grand malheur
Depuis j’ai tout refoulé
Comme si j’avais le diable au coeur
Encore t’as brisé mon coeur
C’est toujours un grand malheur
Depuis j’ai remis ma vie
Entre les mains d’un guérisseur
Je crois avoir la berlue
Je vois des rayons de pleine lune
Qui me transpercent le corps
Et laisse mon âme à nu
J’entends le ressac au loin
Le son des grandes marées
En contemplant mon chagrin
Je vois une ombre passer
Je te sens tu es là
Sur le sable, ondulant
Sous la peau d’un serpent
Sous la peau d’un serpent
Tu avances vers moi
Ta violence est sans voix
Encore t’as brisé mon coeur
C’est toujours un grand malheur
Depuis j’ai tout refoulé
Comme si j’avais le diable au coeur
Encore t’as brisé mon coeur
C’est toujours un grand malheur
Depuis j’ai remis ma vie
Entre les mains d’un guérisseur
Je te vois tu es là
Sur le sable, ondulant
Sous la peau d’un félin
Sous la peau d’un félin
Tu avances vers moi
Ta violence est sans voix
Nos corps ensemble abandonnés
Emportés par la grande marée
Nos corps ensemble abandonnés
Emportés par la grande marée
Nos corps ensemble abandonnés
Emportés par la grande marée
Nos corps ensemble abandonnés
Emportés par la grande marée
Encore t’as brisé mon coeur
C’est toujours un grand malheur
Depuis j’ai tout refoulé
Comme si j’avais le diable au coeur
Encore t’as brisé mon coeur
C’est toujours un grand malheur
Depuis j’ai remis ma vie
Entre les mains d’un guérisseur
Je regarde les étoiles
Long corridor infini
Pendant que rampent sur moi
Des lianes et des racines
Je crois alors que c’est toi
Qui s’enroule sur ma main
Et dans le feu devant moi
Tu te transformes en félin
