GRAVEYARD LYRICS

1. Magnetic Shunk

You’re a magnet to my mind baby don’t know what to do
But I would plow through shame to sit right next to you
It’s nobody’s business who you give your kiss
But I’m telling all the world what they’re about to miss

I know you’ve done a lot of loving before you did me
But I could never guess how sweet it would be
Practice makes perfect now ain’t that true
So get ready honey now I’m gonna do you

Nothing feels better than your skin on my skin
Don’t care about the others or where you’ve been
I can play dirty and I know you play rough
One, two, three, four shakes is never enough

I know you’ve done a lot of loving before you did me
But I could never guess how sweet it would be
Practice makes perfect now ain’t that true
So get ready honey now I’m gonna do you

When you walk into a room floating across the floor
I get awestruck I get dumb an easy prey a sitting duck
When you lay your eyes on me with that smile on your face
I wanna feel your touch again oh I can’t wait until we…

No need to be gently baby I like it raw
Treat me like I was crime and you are the law

Bite me spank me baby pull my hair
I’m gonna rub you the right way and kiss you right there

I know you’ve done a lot of loving before you did me
But I could never guess how sweet it would be
Practice makes perfect now ain’t that true
So get ready honey now I’m gonna do you

2. The Apple & The Tree

I remember the days I don’t recall
It was a time of innocence and decadence
Oh the fights, the fun and the ignorance
Now you’re always under influence

A long hard fall from oblivion
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
Too young and scared to let it be you and me
Too full of ourselves to see how it was gonna be

Never had an easy living but it’s the only life you’ve ever known
You’ve been good you’ve been bad you’ve been different
That’s how it goes for people like me and you

Ain’t it strange how the cards are dealt?
You say tomorrow seems as bad as yesterday
That you live because you have to not because you wanna stay
Then there’s those who die trying to get away

Never had an easy living but it’s the only life you’ve ever known
You’ve been good you’ve been bad you’ve been different
That’s how it goes for people like me and you

So sick of people telling us who we are
I’m neither or I’m everything and in between
I’m nothing or something that you’ve never ever seen
Life’s a repetition how it’s always been

Never had an easy living but it’s the only life you’ve ever known
You’ve been good you’ve been bad you’ve been different
That’s how it goes for people like me and you

3. Exit 97

Just as the sun slowly catches the ground she walks by
They walk with me through darkness and cold-hearted minds
In this dream and on this ride you are mine
Oh haven’t you seen they shine brighter than stars in the sky

No one
No one
No one else can make me go

If nothing is real they haven’t seen this one
And the wound of the spear two chosen ones
‘Til the end

Some say it’s few to find love to be true words inside
The winter still comes but your vision will lead to the light
Out from me and in to you everything grows strong
All that I’ve got might not be that much but I’m giving it all to you

You are the one
And I will give it all to you

If nothing is real they haven’t seen this one
And the wound of the spear two chosen ones
‘Til the end

4. Never Theirs To Sell

It was never never, ever never theirs to take and never theirs to sell

Did you notice when they stole your life?
And that the price never reveals the cost?
Trapped in labor trained to stay in line
What are they doing with what’s yours and mine

It was never ever, never never theirs to take
It was never ever, never never theirs to take
And never theirs to sell

Four hundred years and we’re still going strong
One way bridges and apartheid walls
Same old bullshit with a different name
Can’t call it playing ‘cause it’s a fixed game

Can your hear that old song stuck on repeat?
Familiar problems never cease to exist
Self-righteous men with a broken will
Strong minded women always pay those bills

It was never ever, never never theirs to take
It was never ever, never never theirs to take
And never theirs to sell

5. Can't Walk Out

We saw you try to walk out on yourself
Walk out on what you had become
We saw you walk out on the universe
Walk out on the world until it came around
Walk, walk, walk, walk out on your self

You saw us sit down to drink your wine
Saw you dance through life ‘till your music died
Dance, dance, dance ‘till your music died
Dance, dance, dance ‘till your music died

Waiting for shazam

But you can’t walk out on the universe
Gotta keep dancing when your music dies
No you can’t walk out on the universe
Gotta keep dancing when your music dies

Watch out here it comes – Shazam
Here it comes – Shazam Shazam Shazam
Shazam

What is a true urge and what have we been taught?
Pushed reality aside to live your truth
What was it that never let them pin you down?
You pushed determination down their throats

Push, push, push, reality aside
Freak, freak, freak, freak them out and sing

But you can’t walk out on the universe
Gotta keep dancing when your music dies
No you can’t walk out on the universe
Gotta keep dancing when your music dies

6. Too Much Is Not Enough

Baby your mind’s already made up
You just don’t know it yet
Or maybe you’re just letting me down easy
I know you tried, tried to keep us together
But in the end there was nothing left to keep

I said, I said that I love you and I always will
Now that would have been true if only time stood still

It was too little too late and now too much is not enough
I know we got it wrong I did too little too late
Someday you’ll see the shades of grey
So baby please don’t let your love turn to hate

Now summer’s here but my baby ain’t
I never got the chance to say don’t go
Because you were already long gone by then
Uncertainty had me in a chokehold
And all I could think to say was so far from right
It made the wrong words seem like poetry

Honey I hope you realize,
Being persuasive doesn’t always make you right
I know we got it wrong, I did too little too late
Someday you’ll see the shades of grey
So baby please don’t let your love turn to hate

7. From A Hole In The Wall

Can you hear a big bird singing somewhere in the back of your mind
It’s loud enough to make you wonder
Can I please hear it one more time

Saying I’ll never leave you
Call me and I’m on my way
Somehow I can always see you
And I can feel you in me everyday

You say you travel on a winding road
It’s long enough to wrap you up
How can you tell if it’s real
The way it touches is sure hard to feel

Too much of nothing can hurt you
And too little hurt even worse
I wonder if I’ll ever get to you
Or if you’ll have to get to me first

Into the street of the city
Where we don’t have to think so hard
And we don’t have to worry now do we
Just look at the world from a hole in the wall

While on your way to see a troubled friend
You loose your way and never see her again
I think I know how it feels
The way it touches is sure hard to feel

Too much of nothing can hurt you
And too little hurt even worse
I wonder if I’ll ever get to you
Or if you’ll have to get to me first

Into the street of the city
Where we don’t have to think so hard
And we don’t have to worry now do we
Just look at the world from a hole in the wall

Look and see a sky is forming
Holding so many rains
It makes you feel real lonely
And the feeling is like a ball and chain

Down on the street of the city
Where you don’t have to think so hard
And you don’t have to worry now do you
Just look at the world from a hole in the wall

You put in the back of your head now
Save it for another time
And when it gets too heavy to carry
You may always put it down on mine

I promise I’ll never leave you
Call me and I’m on my way
Somehow I can always see you

8. Cause & Defect

It was a light rain that fell
It fell heavy on our heads that day
Benny wasn’t even there to see it go down
Maybe he knew they wouldn’t let him stay

It’s cause and defect

We all saw the dark clouds coming
That’s when he painted the basement blue
He stepped right out took a step closer to dying
Two steps more without even trying

It’s cause and defect

It’s like climbing a dream
Tumbling down a failure
Trippin’ on a nightmare
To see that no one is there no one is there

No matter no matter their motives
The consequences are the same
Predictable systems with no one to blame
Wisdom of experience nowhere to be found

It’s like climbing a dream
Tumbling down a failure
Trippin’ on a nightmare
To see that no one is there no one is there

9. Hard-Headed

You see there’s something that I’ve held inside too long
But there’s no room for any doubt at all in here
Repeating their words oh hold your head up high
Just so I can bring it all down and out

Sorry to say your show is over
Sorry to say you’re just like them alright
Your little hardheaded mind and your eyes are that blind
You pick wisely who you mess up this time
Come on so let’s just move on out of here

You’re an extension of your little narrow minds
And all the missionary work you’ve left behind
They’re still holding your strings oh you’re dancing so fine
Pretty little rebel yeah you live just to die

Sorry to say your show is over
Sorry to say you’re just like them alright
Your little hardheaded mind and your eyes are that blind
You pick wisely who you mess up this time
Come on so let’s just move on out of here

Leaving so precious and so right
Maybe one day you will be fine
Taking it home will leave them no trace
To fall is what you need to pay it back

So let’s just move on out of here

Sorry to say your show is over
Sorry to say you’re just like them alright
Your little hardheaded mind and your eyes are that blind
You pick wisely who you mess up this time
Come on so let’s just move on out of here

10. Far Too Close

I could feel it all that day and how life just ran away
Somehow they got you and almost took what they need
I heard the bells were ringing and darkness growing from the pain

And if you leave where would you go
Cause I will follow, slowly I’m making my way

How I keep on wondering I’ve looked for reasons but they fail
I keep on wondering what have we done to let it fade

Never seen the colors fade so fast and for time to move so slow
I hear them riding in the wind like a shadow of my sin
This time you’re wrong but the fear makes you forget
You know I wish I was closer but I’m a million miles away

An endless night to come and sides so steep and the fall is far too close
For the one and all I know, I’ll see them from above with you

11. Stay For A Song

I might not be much to look at and I might not have much to say
But if you let me love you baby there’s a good chance you’re gonna stay
Smooth talking, dancing and bragging honey it’s never been my thing
Maybe my voice can give you comfort if you stick around to hear me sing

Won’t you stay for a song
Won’t you stay one more song
Won’t you stay one more song

My place among all lovers it sure ain’t number one
Although I am good enough for you to miss me when I’m gone
On stage when I face a crowd of people inside I still feel alone
But I know I’m a decent singer and most days I can keep my tone

Won’t you stay one more song
Won’t you stay one more song
Won’t you stay one more song

12. The Hatch
