Long Strange Trip
Don’t need to be cool, don’t need to be right
I just the strength to keep up the fight
Don’t want to be rich, don’t want to be poor
I just want enough, well maybe a little more….
Sometimes I feel so desperate
To feel okay in side my head
But I thank my lucky starts up above
That I’m a fool, a fool who fell in love
But I thank my lucky starts up above
That I’m a fool, a fool who fell in love
Life can be so damn hard you can feel your fingers slip
Just like Jerry sang, “It’s a long strange trip…”
It’s a long strange trip, it’s a long strange trip
It’s a long strange trip, it’s a long strange trip
Don’t want to be young, I’d rather be old
Some of life’s lessons learned are worth their weight in gold
Don’t need to be happy, just don’t want to be sad
Sometimes I just need a day where I don’t feel so goddamn mad
Sometimes I feel so desperate
To feel okay in side my head
But I thank my lucky starts up above
That I’m a fool, a fool who fell in love
But I thank my lucky starts up above
That I’m a fool, a fool who fell in love
Life can be so damn hard you can feel your fingers slip
Just like Jerry sang, “It’s a long strange trip…”
It’s a long strange trip, it’s a long strange trip
It’s a long strange trip, it’s a long strange trip

Hurt Me No More
I was walking like a pound of gold I had a million dollar smile
All the while I was seeing red I had daggers in my eyes
Far too long I have lived blinded by your lies
And I'm here to tell you, you will hurt me no more
I'm gonna cut you, oh baby cut you from my life
Say goodnight
I was lost when you found me yeah I's say that's true
But here I stand on my two feet not solely 'cause of you
I felt that I owed you so I put up with your trash
But your mouth just cut a check that I'm about to cash
I'm gonna cut you, oh baby cut you from my life
Say goodnight, go bye bye
If words were bullets I'd say you never missed a shot
Somehow you fooled me to believe that I deserved what I got
You said that you loved me, but never did you care
When I get back home tonight I know you won't be there
I'm gonna cut you, I'm cut you, oh baby cut you
I'm gonna cut you my life, say goodnight
Go bye bye

Down With The Ship
Have we all gone crazy, something’s not right
Things just stopped making sense, now all we do is build a bigger fence
What is the truth, who’s telling lies? Are our friends wolves in disguise?
We should all come together and stand as one,
Instead we point our loaded gun
We’re all going down with the ship, we’re all in this together
We’re all going down with the ship, hear me brothers and sisters
We’re all going down with the ship…oh oh oh ooooh
Have we all gone crazy, who turned out the lights
Things happening right before our eyes, we’re falling for such blatant lies
Can’t trust what the TV say, cause every word is sold today
We should all come together and stand as one,
Instead we point our loaded gun
We’re all going down with the ship, we’re all in this together
We’re all going down with the ship, hear me brothers and sisters
We’re all going down with the ship…oh oh oh ooooh
We’re all going down with the ship, we’re all in this together
We’re all going down with the ship, hear me brothers and sisters
We’re all going down with the ship…oh oh oh ooooh

Can You Get Down
I need to know what your name is (what your name is)
Maybe ask you where you stay (where you stay)
Nocturnal thoughts and a crazy biz
Now can you come out and play
Can you get down?
(can you get it, when you get it, will you get it, will you get it now?)
Get down and ride with me
Can you get down?
(can you get it, when you get it, will you get it, will you get it now?)
Get down and ride with me
Oh you move like fun, but smell like rain (smell like rain)
Sunshine on a cloudy day (cloudy day)
Freedom cuts to triumph through the pain (through the pain)
You're like April into May
Can you get down?
(can you get it, when you get it, will you get it, will you get it now?)
Get down and ride with me
Can you get down?
(can you get it, when you get it, will you get it, will you get it now?)
Get down and ride with me
Oh can you feel it, yes I feel it, feel it deep inside
Is such a feeling, such a feeling, it makes me feel alive
Smokey room gave way to daytime (way to daytime)
Tomorrow's never quite as deep (quite as deep)
And do I even have to say I'm
Gonna see you in my sleep
Can you get down?
(can you get it, when you get it, will you get it, will you get it now?)
Get down and ride with me
Can you get down?
(can you get it, when you get it, will you get it, will you get it now?)
Get down and ride with me

This Time Around

This Time Around
You got to be strong, you got to believe
Just keep moving on, barely time to grieve
Cause life just won’t ever wait
There’s really no use in hate
There’s only time for love
This time around
You got to be smart, try to relax
Some chances only come around once you gotta know when to act
Cause life goes by so fast
You never know how long it lasts
There’s only time for love
This time around
You got to be bold, stay true to yourself
You can’t lock away the dreams inside to just die on the shelf
Cause life’s too short these days
You gotta dance while the music plays
There’s only time for love
This time around
There’s only time for love
This time around

Devil's Inn
There's a man with a gun pointed at me
Do I take his life or do I let him set me free
With blue skies at noon, I'm at the Devil's Inn at dawn
How long do I stay 'fore my mind isn't strong
Out in the desert you just never know
Who's that walking down the Devil's Road
Out in the desert you just never know
Who's that walking down the Devil's Road
When you've lost everything
You've got to get back on that track and ride that train
Love from your heart will free your pain
As free as you've ever been
With a family that loves and the fallen above
Have cleared a path for you
Your music is as honest as the trees
Only you can do what's right for you
Out in the desert you just never know
Who's that walking down the Devil's Road
Out in the desert you just never know
Who's that walking down the Devil's Road
Out in the desert you just never know
Who's that walking down the Devil's Road
Out in the desert you just never know
Who's that walking down the Devil's Road

Hope We Don't Die
Hope we don't die before we get old
Hope we don't die before we get old
Hope we have a jacket when the wind blows cold
Hope we don't die
Hope we drink to fill our cups,
Good friends around to bring us up
Hope we play music 'til our dying day
Cause it sure seems meant to be that way
Hope we don't die before we get old
Hope we don't die before we get old
Hope we see the truth when the lie is told
Hope we don't die
Hope we are together on a starlit night
Laying on the bed with arms entwined
Sister's of Fate call out "It's Time!"
Singing I'll see you baby on the other side
We don't want to fade away, gonna shine 'til our dying day
Like a moth to a burning flame, if I can't get close drive me insane
Hope we don't die before we get old
Hope we don't die before we get old
Hope we get to heaven 'fore the soul is sold
Hope we don't die
Hope we don't die
Hope we don't die

Ragged Soul

Ragged Soul
Well I was fixing to fix my broken string
It shattered in the most amazing dream
Every heart was young every soul was old
And we all danced like the brave and the bold
So put your head in the clouds and keep the rocks under feet
Cause baby it’s time to roll
Music is the medicine that heals my ragged soul
Mend me with the melody held me together with the groove
Stitch by stitch, stitch by stitch
Well I had tears in my eyes I wept with joy
Listening to Frianti’s voice
I got my girls by my side my heart full of love
Letting the emotion rain in from above
Not all that bleeds is red, not every grass is green
But this joint is ready to roll
Music is the medicine that heals my ragged soul
Mend me with the melody held me together with the groove
Stitch by stitch, stitch by stitch
If you go back to the start of a broken heart
You can put together things torn apart
Cause there is healing within it’s like learning to talk
You must find a way to let your soul rock
So keep your head in the stars and sing from your soul
Baby you start to rock and roll
Music is the medicine that heals my ragged soul
Mend me with the melody held me together with the groove
Stitch by stitch, stitch by stitch

Woke Up In A Mood
Woke up in a mood today
Couldn’t push the blues away
Though I tried, oh lord I tried
Wasn’t feeling strong enough
My will was weakened stuff
So easy to fall into the gloom
And sometimes I get angry, at the silliest things
And I feel unlike myself anymore
Woke up in a mood today
Couldn’t sing the blues away
So I cried, I cried so hard
Not like things aren’t going right
Even though the money’s tight were happy
Just the five of us
Oh sometimes I get angry, at the silliest things
And I feel unlike myself anymore
Sometimes it’s the baby crying
Or some guy driving too close to me
Sometimes it’s just the sound of your voice
That pushes me over the edge
And all the emotions come rushing
From all the bad things that have ever happened to me
And that just makes me angrier still
Cause it’s not how I want to be
Cause it ain’t me, no it ain’t me, not at all
Woke up in a mood today
Couldn’t chase the blues away
So I lied to myself
Woke up in a mood today

Something In The Story
There’s something in the story, there’s laughter in the trees
Something so amazing, it brought me to my knees
An answer legendary, a pilgrimage of soul
Something so fulfilling, to make you feel as whole
Is it love, is it hate, is it want, is it need?
Is it life, is it, death, is it lust, is it greed?
I really think I thought I knew,
But now I know that this ain’t true
Soaring like an angel, off edge of waterfall
Weightless for a moment, it’s all about the fall
The poets of the ages, hid it deep within the verse
You know it when it has you, a blessing with a curse
Is it love, is it hate, is it want, is it need?
Is it life, is it, death, is it lust, is it greed?
I really think I thought I knew,
But now I know that this ain’t true
There’s something in the story, that I cannot recall
Slipping through my fingers, it’s all about the fall
Is it love, is it hate, is it want, is it need?
Is it life, is it, death, is it lust, is it greed?
I really think I thought I knew,
But now I know that this ain’t true
I really think I thought I knew,
But now I know that this ain’t true
