Passerine 02:49
lyrics
In the backdrop of the sound-surround this morning A starling sings to me of times gone by And in no small measure I recall this scene But I miss my passerine It’s been a long time since I’ve visited these places These all familiar spacesm I can trace along my life In the bedroom I can hear her sweet voice calling A mem’ry of a mem’ry moves me now No mistaking her when I was just nineteen Still I miss my passerine It’s been a long time since I’ve visited these places These all familiar spacesm I can trace along my life I recall watching her watch me through my window The things that stay with us form who we are Moments filling in the spaces in between And I miss my passerine It’s been a long time since I’ve visited these places These all familiar spacesm I can trace along my life

Alright by Me 03:58
lyrics
Many times we have wandered down this road So many times we’ve been burdened by this load And I can’t take it You’d think by now we would learn to avoid this terrain Once burned, twice shy, get out of the rain We’ve gotta move on down the line Find our way back to an easier time Yeah, your one track mind Is alright by me Many times we’ve been tangled up in this web So many times we been caught in the flow and the ebb We just can’t shake it You’d think by now we’d be tired by the turn of the tide As the stars will align we’re along for the ride We’ve gotta move on down the line Find our way back to an easier time You’ve gotta seek if you’re gonna find It’s alright by me We’ve gotta move on down the line Find our way back to an easier time Yeah, your one track mind Is alright by me We’ve gotta move on down the line Find our way back to an easier time You’ve gotta seek if you’re gonna find It’s alright by me -- It’s alright by me

Breathe Easy 03:45
lyrics
Strung out and sleep deprived, I walked an empty stretch I couldn’t see the waves at night, no I couldn’t see what’s coming next Took all the will I had to keep me standing tall But I really didn’t give a damn, no I really didn’t care at all Breathe easy – Let all this drift away Breathe easy – Tomorrow is another day There’s something comforting ‘bout a long and lonely beach When everything is out of hand and nothing seems within my reach Let go what troubles me, each step leads further on And maybe this will fall away just before the break of dawn Breathe easy – And leave it all behind Breathe easy – You know I need to ease my troubled mind Breathe easy -- And leave it all behind Breathe easy -- You know I need to ease my troubled mind Breathe easy – Take one day at a time Breathe easy – I’ll summit on this uphill climb

Half Light 04:52
lyrics
Like those who fly… in the late day sun In the arctic half-light of Bridger Canyon Existence fades away to being with my soul, and Memories of the Blackfoot River sounds return me whole There’s a four-count time, the hope that fish will rise A deep contentment as the sun rests in the sky Eventually they say that all things merge to one And in between all of these things a wild river runs I’ve been lured by distractions Let what matters slip from view… The river’s wide, cut from the world’s great flood Runs over rocks below the sediment and mud Where timeless raindrops fell and washed away all cares, and Underneath those rocks are words, and some of them are theirs I’ve been lured by distractions Let what matters slip from view I could stay here forever ‘Cause these days are too few I’m haunted by waters…

Undertow 04:36
lyrics
Stand in the center of the eye of the storm Blithely mistaking this fury for the norm Danger above me now, I’m vulnerable and strong There’s no convincing that there’s nothing I’ve done wrong Oh, I’ll let go the undertow so it lets go of me It’s hard to tell who’s holding on – I can’t forsake the sea I know these things about myself – I go too willingly And it’s a long way down – It’s a long way to go with the undertow Leaving katabis, I search to find a shore Lay floating on a wave and trusting as before Let levity restore my brokenness this way Tomorrow promises to keep these things at bay Yeah, I’ll let go the undertow so it lets go of me Pull myself through darkness from the bottom I can’t see Just knowing this part of myself allows me to be free Yeah, it’s a long way down - It’s a long way to go with the undertow I’ll build a great-wall garden, where wild dreams will grow I’ll tend the tender-hearted, where no one else will go Though riptide forces pull me, I learn to hold my breath And welcome transformation as I die a little death This dark sarcophagus, drifts slowly out of sight A distant memory, I finally see some light On faithful firmament where kinder things surround Holding to nothing in this wisdom that I’ve found Yeah, I’ll let go the undertow Said I’ll let go the undertow I’ll let go…

Hegemony 02:59
lyrics
They say we’re lucky in the land of the free With peace and equal opportunity, yeah And we’re all living the American dream With everything exactly just as it seems Saturated with these little white lies One distracts one pulls the wool over our eyes What would it take to make the populace see, to Trouble this hegemony Say, who’s behind this economic decline? They tell the public that we’re doing just fine, yeah The rich get richer while the poorer stay poor Exactly how much more will people endure What they don’t tell you is it’s par for the course A planned dynamic, it’s a real tour de force You’ll never hear it from the powers that be to Trouble this hegemony There doesn’t seem to be a reason or rhyme To subvert prevailing paradigms You’ve got to act yourself, ‘cause baby you’re free to Trouble this hegemony

Prophetic… Fanatic… Kinetic… Schematic… Has someone something to say? What’s happening? What’s real? What the 4-1-1? What’s the deal? I need ticket in, I need to be found I need some answers here, so we can turn this around We’ve been occupied… We’ve been sanctified We’ve been deputized… We’ve been mesmerized Wilco - Tango - Foxtrot Wilco - Tango - Foxtrot Wilco - Tango – Foxtrot - Wilco - Tango - Foxtrot Wilco - Tango… Wilco - Tango – Foxtrot - Wilco - Tango - Foxtrot Wilco - Tango…
