Chaos is our North Star
Fade to Black no returning
The Southern Cross hanging low on the dark horizon
The Southern Cross hanging low on the new day rising
The sands of the West wind blow cutting through stone
The storms of the East wind blow cutting through homes
Chaos is our North Star
Shining heavens falling
Chaos is our North Star
The Southern Cross hanging low on the dark horizon
The Southern Cross hanging low on the new day rising
The sands of the West wind blow cutting through stone
The storms of the East wind blow cutting through homes
Chaos is our North Star
Chaos is our North Star
Chaos is our North Star
Chaos is our North Star

My Everlovin'

Hey now when you leave
All the things you left behind
A little something
Guess it's better than nothing
I'm going out on the road to see some friends
Hope you're divine my everlovin'
Still crying out my eyes
Sleeping on the hardwood floor
Ears are buzzing
Tired thoughts running
Down that old River through countless bends
Missing you something fierce my everlovin'
Remembering locked in each other's arms
Praying someday that I find you
Eventually everything single thing
She's crushed down
Down into nothing
Leave a little something behind to remember you by
Holding it so tight until I reach that destination
This ain't where our stories ends
I'll see you again my everlovin'

No can say for certain
Lost the meaning to cruel hands of time
Before the story was written the word was spoken around the fire
Where we've been misremembered
Deserted the war surrendered
Who is the most determined?
Begging and pleading for your life
The truth is always hidden
Spoken only by the voices in your mind
Where we've been misremembered
Deserted the war surrendered
The day dawns climbing
High Noon starts falling
The day breaks into evening
Midnight comes the whole World is sleeping
The day dawns climbing
High Noon starts falling
The day breaks into evening
Midnight comes the whole World is sleeping
No can say for certain
Lost the meaning to cruel hands of time
Before the story was written the word was spoken around the fire
Where we've been misremembered
Deserted the war surrendered
Who is the most determined?
Begging and pleading for your life
The truth is always hidden
Spoken only by the voices in your mind
Where we've been misremembered
Deserted the war surrendered
The day dawns climbing
High Noon starts falling
The day breaks into evening
Midnight comes the whole World is sleeping
The day dawns climbing
High Noon starts falling
The day breaks into evening
Midnight comes the whole World is sleeping

Golden strands web of life
What is once was
Golden strands web of life
What once now is
Golden strands web of life
Wanting nothing more than a lonely paradise under skies of Blue
First frost Summer lost
Hold you in tender thoughts
The unseen battles fought
We were living the heavy truth
Golden strands web of life
What is once was
Golden strands web of life
What once now is
Golden strands web of life
What if I were you?
We need the same things to live the days on through
Don't look so surprised
The feeling breaking through
We need the same things to live the days on through
Our last goodbye never felt right
Like a car broken down
The oil that the engine bleeds all over the ground
Slow grind from last to first
Belly of hunger mouth of thirst
The fall from first to last
Joy comes at a cost
Golden strands web of life
What if I were you?
We need the same things to live the days on through
Don't look so surprised
The feeling breaking through
We need the same things to live the days on through
Golden strands web of life
What is once was
Golden strands web of life
What once now is

Born on the same day under the same sign
Trapped in our togetherness
You went your own way
I went mine
Trapped in our separateness
Maybe we'll come back around some sunny day
Trapped in our togetherness
Torn from the lands we were raised
All but erased
Trapped in our separateness
Our separateness...
Hard lessons of slow decay
Two fates intertwined
Trapped in our togetherness
Heavy the heart mourns when one is away
Trapped in our separateness
Returning from the farthest point road worn and blanked
Trapped in our togetherness
Fighting over the empty space like two warring States
Trapped in our separateness
Our separateness...
Died on the same day under the same sign
Trapped in our togetherness
In some lonely Western State under stars divine
Trapped in our separateness
Maybe we'll come back around some sunny day
Trapped in our togetherness
Returning to the lands we were raised
The past reclaimed
Trapped in our separateness
Our separateness...

Lost one where do you hail from?
So far flung
Treading the Earth looking for no one
Someone
Do you know what they say about that endless route?
Treading the Earth looking for a way out
Last holdout
The future's dream always unfolding slowly
The change happens almost unknowing
Winds blowing
From somewhere forgotten
In a memory well trodden
From somewhere forgotten
In a memory well trodden
Lost one where are you going?
Unknowing
Treading the Earth life passing slowly before you
How long will you stay upon that endless route?
Treading the Earth there is no way out
No way down
From somewhere forgotten
In a memory well trodden
From somewhere forgotten
In a memory well trodden

Waiting at the old station for the ghost train
Whole town deserted
No one left to blame
Abandoned names
Searching for isolation
Clearing the brain
Mine is caving in
Relinquished the claim in 1908
A lack of dedication and failing strength
A letter poorly worded
If it's all the same douse the flame
The fruits of temptation
Garden and snake
Always disconcerted
A dog on a broken chain lost and unclean
As the stories grow older
Blurring the border between dreams and reality
No finality
As the stories grow older
Blurring the border between dreams and reality
No finality
Waiting on a runaway for the aeroplane
Cold heart departing
Nothing left to explain
Circle the drain
Searching for inspiration in hostile terrain
Behind the lines of an enemy State
What's in a name?
Lack of motivation
Drawing a blank
Calamity averted
The end of the game
What's the aim?
As the stories grow older
Blurring the border between dreams and reality
No finality
As the stories grow older
Blurring the border between dreams and reality
No finality

I'll take good care of your memory
Midnight missing you next to me
Those days now feel like make believe
So I'll take good care of your memory
Remembering a remedy
I'll take good care of your memory for everything you've done for me
Always knew you'd leave eventually so I took good care of your memory
Remembering faded pictures of you
A reverie
I'll take good care of your memory
Time worn words of the past written on stone
The story is told it rolls and rolls
Faded pictures of you
A reverie
I'll take good care of your memory
Time worn words of the past written on stone
The story is told it rolls and rolls down the road
I'll take good care of your memory
Send some positive energy
Laying in the Summer breeze
I'll take good care of this memory
Remembering
A remedy
I'll take good care of your memory wherever you may be
Wherever you may be I'll take good care of your memory
Remembering faded pictures of you
A reverie
I'll take good care of your memory
Time worn words of the past written on stone
The story is told it rolls and rolls
Faded pictures of you
A reverie
I'll take good care of your memory
Time worn words of the past written on stone
The story is told it rolls and rolls down the road

Aching for you breaking for you my only one
I know that to live is loss
It don't make it any easier when the darkness comes
Mind is tied up
Infernal knots
Burning for you yearning for you my only one
I know that love is loss
It don't make it any easier when the darkness comes
Aching for you breaking for you my only one
Burning for you yearning for you my only one
Hands are tied
Infernal knots
What's done is gone
Gone and done my only one
I know that to live is to fly and then fall back to the Earth when it's our time
Aching for you breaking for you my only one
I know that to live is loss
It don't make it any easier when the darkness comes
Mind is tied up
Infernal knots
Burning for you yearning you my only one
I know that love is loss
It don't make it any easier when the darkness comes

Living alone some days are low
Some days are high
Try to take them slow
Driving a straight line down the middle road
Nowhere to go like the wind that blows
In the hills of Blueish Green
You were my King
You were my Queen
At that point in history hard everything anyone could need
Living alone some days are low
Some days are high
Try to take them slow
Driving a straight line down the middle road
Nowhere to go like the wind that blows
In the hills of Blueish Green
You were my King
You were my Queen
At that point in history hard everything anyone could need
In the hills of Blueish Green
You were my King
You were my Queen
At that point in history
Had everything anyone could need

No hears you shouting into the wind
Into the nothingness
Fighting for closure but it's never over
Forever left unfinished
At the foot of the Mount
The air here is cleaner
Makes you a true believer
Held in the Valley
Crystal clear water
Bleeding that inspiration
Putting our heads down again
Pushing through the whirlwind
Grazed by a bullet
The shot was a warning
The old ways now are burning
Axe the foundation
Lower and lower
Our spirit becomes diminished
Cast from the Canyon
There is no returning
Pleading for a message
Blank pages are turning
Our story is unwritten
Or is it?
Or is it?
Putting our heads down again
Pushing through the whirlwind
