Track Name: Hardest Bail
we can't know for sure
if these paths are pure
so we rode on into the night
and she said "we will find it
if we trust in bus lines runnin"
and we said we said "we will find it"


and if we tried to get this lost
i think we'd find accounts believable
so lets be kind to those who fall and lets be kinder to those who fall again
Track Name: White Shoes
The unabandoning unrest begets
Another day
another loss
another tick
another tock on
the boss' clock
and so we say

This isn't some passing notion
Only a perpetual push from an impersonal ocean:

we've got to keep minnowing in.
we've got to keep minnowing in.

On the morning train, again
pressed in
and pressed
at your desk
Until a motion comes to move you again
and you say:

This isn't some passing notion
Only a perpetual push from an impersonal ocean

End on end your tending gears
through the years
grit your teeth
grinding fears
Then emotions come and sweep you away
and you say

I want to walk in the California sunshine
& wear white shoes and white trousers

Oh, tie me back in apron strings
lamp lights shine to bring us in
Oh, tie me back in apron strings

The unabandoning unrest begets
Another day
Another swing
another sway
we can travel
but we never stray
So we say

This isn't a passing notion
a perpetual push from a personal ocean
we've got to keep minnowing in.
we've got to keep minnowing in.

I want to walk in the California sunshine
& wear white shoes and white trousers
Track Name: Failure from the Start
don't get stuck on this
you can find a way

take your time and miss
all of the birthdays and phone calls that wouldn't come through.

when you cry, cry loud
it don't bother me

you know they told me you're a

failure from the start
and it broke your little heart
that is what they said
and it's what you have believed
i have had enough
i will pull you out of this dream

If you try, try now
It takes one to know one and no one can get to you now.

Don't let them tell you you're a

failure from the start
it's just the hardest part
that's not all they said
but it's what you have believed
I know you've had enough
and now you can awake from this dream
Track Name: New Bounce
Are you alright? is it all a mystery? you may be right.
Would you write down that you believe in gravity? its what keeps us down.

bound in again, wound up in a spring about,
can't shift around.
do you think you have to stay one way?

Seasons come round, shadows grow in lower lights,
pull in real tight. winter brings a chill that lasts all day, and its OK

well you know that i wish that i could tell you right away
if i plan to stay, its probly least a day.

last sunday night, you were at the barbecue,
did he make you cry?

next sunday night, didja have another one? didn't treat you right?

Is that your plight? Caught again and frozen in,
in carbonite?
could you think of somethin you had done
to bring this on?

well you know that i wish that i could tell you what to say
and if those plans are made, you might not be OK

are you alright?
would you tell me if you weren't really alright?
It's on your mind, i can tell you got some doubt. its what keeps us down.

I think you're right and i believe in what you do.
it's not tonight
that we thought we had to live this through.

cuz you know that i think that i can tell you here today
that i might plan to stay at least more than a day.
if that would be OK with you.
