Cowboy Song

Roughin' up the tough ones
Shakin' down the weak
Straighten up your holster
Eye on the prize
Watch out little ladies, didn't papa warn ya?
Better look out for those winds
Into the bar, our only sanctuary
When the dust circle spins
We're all just cowboys trying to shake some dust
We're all just cowboys, trying to jump the gun
it's the saint's call, quick draw
Shakin' up the dust
Sun-torn skin, brown and red
Got the stain of death in our lips
Black chaps, boot straps
Go ahead, add another bullet to your sin
We're all just cowboys trying to shake some dust
We're all just cowboys, trying to jump the gun
it's the saint's call, quick draw
Shakin' up the dust
Tell yourself it means something
Tell yourself it's working
Tell em' it's your purpose
Tell em' that it's worth it
Blind, cowboys run
Blind, shooting out your gun
Blind, paving out the way
Blind, holding Satan's hand to pray
Cowboys run
We're shakin' up the dust

Don't Say Nothing

I'm falling apart I think I've lost my head
My bones are cracking at the seams
You're looking to me to find the answers
I'm sick and tired of speaking
I'm looking around inside my memory
Trying to find where we went wrong
Were you the one who went and lost me
Or was I never there at all?
Lunatic and lover, were you poet, were you friend?
Did we burn the pages of the books we never read?
I'm falling apart I think I've lost my will
My smile is cracking at the seams
Maybe these tears will wash the doubt away
I'm sick and tired of crying
Lunatic and lover, were you poet, were you friend?
Did we burn the pages of the books we never read?
I know that it takes two for a battle to begin
I need you to fight, I need you to win
But you don't say nothing, don't say nothing, you don't say anything
Don't say nothing, don't say nothing, just don't say nothing
I'm falling apart it seems we lost it
And all of my dreams are fading
Don't say nothing, don't say nothing, you don't say anything
Don't say nothing, don't say nothing, just don't say nothing

All The Quiet

I thought I felt you in the wind today,
but now you feel so, feel so far away
I had another dream again last night
I felt you close to me, but now you’re gone away
I know I get too caught up
A little too bogged down, lost in it all
I can’t pick out your voice, surrounded by all the noise
Will I feel you again?
I wanna get lost in all the quiet
with you, with you
Hold me just a little closer
to you, to you
I know that it’s my fault, when we fall apart
I’m on the ground again
I know that I let you down, but my arms are reaching out
And still you pick me up
I wanna get lost in all the quiet
with you, with you
Hold me just a little closer
to you, to you
I wanna get lost, lost
Until I’m right where I belong
