Track Name: Fear is a Feeling
I took one good look
and I feel down the stairs.
My heart it started racin
as I rolled on down

Got up, put on my hat
and I walked out the door
In the corner of my eye
the house went up in smoke

Fear is a feeling
Sweep up the bones
Fear is a feeling
it was never home

Look down, shine up your boots
in the morning light
ash in the wind at your back
won't spare your eyes

Don't turn, leave all the floorboards
to burn, the wind
will swallow all of the smoke
will clear the air

Fear is a feeling
Sweep up the bones
Fear is a feeling
it was never home
Track Name: Silver for Cynics
If I had known you before
my path was carved into wood
would I stay and watch the seasons
make the rounds again

I'll be gone by morning
but you know im not gone yet
I'll be gone by morning
but you know im not gone yet

Chorus:
I threw all of my coins
in an old wishing well
but silver wont save the cynic
oh well I wish you well

So if you don't mind
passing time
then I could be your guest
you can share my day
but ive got nothing to invest

Chorus
Track Name: Walkin' Shoes
I will lace up my old walkin shoes
and I'll meet you halfway
between the borders of good intention
and my house

Never could be sure with you
never had a word for you
Track Name: Softer Someday
You toss and you turn
through the night.
when I awake
I will wonder where you are


I'd like to know you
when the breathings easy
on a summer sunday
or a softer someday
you move like a radiowave
Track Name: Blood of the Bleak
I spend my days
chasing the tail of the night
and looking for you in the blue sky

I'll be around,
fighting my shadow at noon
and throwing stones through stained glass windows

chorus:
In the upper branches
you're laughin now
In the apple canyon
you're laughin now
in the blood of the bleak
you're laughin now

Out in the snow
they're burying bones in a box
while you hold a sparrow in your hands

I'll be around,
fighting my shadow at noon
and throwing stones through stained glass windows

Chorus

Terrible things are happening
Terrible things are after me
