:: Small town/Blue ribbons   ::                            [2000]


Both my parents have failed
and they have succeeded
and I try to use both of these as I walk along on this Earth
Too often we hate
what we disagree with
Try to shield our children's eyes from what we'd
Rather them not see

Oh, my friend I'm sorry for our society
You're the greatest thing you're the strongest thing
that I've ever seen
I know you've had your share of bad trips and
bad publicity
But trust me when I tell you//It's alright to scream

All my friends have moved to the City
they all became everything they always said they would
but pieces of Him and them and Her and us
can never leave Small Town
%$#'d up justice system make you take your blue ribbons down

Chorus

Time may not erase the wrinkles on your face but
you are still the same girl
Time may not be good to you and Time will not go back and
start all over again
:: By the Sounding Sea  ::                                 [2001]


I need a new perspective on life
A brand new outlook second album
Close the book open the door

You're wasting your time on me
I'm already down by the sounding sea
You're wasting your time on me
I'm already in too deep

Did I make it by your standards
boy, you just don't know how powerful your
words could be
Am I living for tomorrow
You be my Michael Stipe fan, I'll be your Annabel Lee

Beltaine fires burning like your favorite human satellite and you're gone
and you're gone
I got a moving van to take me all the way to 23 I was just 14
and you're gone

Childhood is an elusive entity which these days you're expected to outrun until you
Find your final identity well I hope you had fun, know I had some,
becoming numb

You're not wasting time on me
I'm not buried all that deep
And if you're looking for Annabel Lee she's the one in the water

I need a new perspective on life.
