Fool’s Run Well find your shelter, mind your head a bomb goes off tonight Well this storm it’s overdue and it’s never felt so right I’ve been silent, held my tongue well oh for far too long now this fire it’s burning angry, guess I’m moving on Well when I was young and well behaved I couldn’t see you stood in my way of fighting for my cause I could push and I could scream carry round your deeds with me but I’d rather sing a different song Were you lazy? Was it pride? Or were you scared to swim? I guess it’s easy coasting on another sailor’s wind Now I’m weathered, bow and stern oh the boards, seasoned by that salt I'll carry no more stowaways, I’ll sink at my own fault Well an empty helm and reckless waves make for lost and aimless ways for which I haven't the time I could push and I could scream carry round your deeds with me but I’d rather sing a different song ‘cause it’s a fool’s run to stay in this game of chasing tails So take your problems, take you grudges and don’t pin them on me I can only help myself and I don’t hold your key I could push and I could scream carry round your deeds with me but I’d rather sing a different, sing a different, sing a different song

Love Song 02:08
Love Song Lyrics (Studio Version) - Molly Hanmer  Maybe you never thought that I’d write a song for you, maybe you never thought you’d be on my mind at two, and even if it’s not the way you hoped, it’ll do just know this is a love song, a love song for you And if your sole should break then may I mend you a shoe, and if your words they quake may I never miss my cue, to pick up all the pieces because you were my glue just know this is a love song,  a love song for you Now that you're away,  I’m a little out of tune. And these strings they still play but bend a little blue So If you’ll be kind and you will forgive a fool for never having learned a thing called courage back in school to break down all the silence and silly little rules and maybe write a love song a love song for you and maybe write a love song a love song for you

Stumbling in foreign land and I, I don't know the language I sense there's a feeling but haven't the words And you throw an accusation that I've been omitting pages, I just didn't realize they weren't there How can I tell you what goes on when I don't know myself? How can I find my way back home? How can I tell you what went wrong, when I can't tell myself? Stuck in a daydream on my own Now I'm angry, I'm upset that you insinuated my time revolves around your clock Well mine just tends to run a bit fast and a little frantic But maybe you're right, and I'm in shock How can I tell you what goes on when I don't know myself? How can I find my way back home? How can I tell you what went wrong, when I can't tell myself? Stuck in a daydream on my own Do you believe me when I say, that I don't realize I'm this way? My mind isn't paved with linear routes It's more like an airway in the clouds How can I tell you what goes on when I don't know myself? How can I find my way back home? How can I tell you what went wrong, when I can't tell myself? Stuck in a daydream on my own

Come Back 01:55
You can keep your diamond rings I’d give it all And you can keep your dollar bills Yeah keep it all You can keep the scarves around your head just come on back, quit playing dead Yeah I’d give it all to have you Come Back Come Back You can keep my wood and strings I’d give it all You can keep my sheets and springs Oh keep it all A kidney, liver, one less toe, whatever you want so long as you know Yeah I’d give it all to have you Come Back Come Back Well my days are hurting for you when I call your phone but it don’t ring And I feel a bit uneasy as your face remains to be unseen You can keep your red wine stains I’d give it all You can keep your temper wild Oh keep it all You can take the moon and stars away  just please oh, let my sunshine stay Yeah I’d give it all to have you Come Back Come Back Come Back

Outlaw Blues 03:51

Who has time to break down? Who has time to cry? When living isn’t easy you start to wonder why There’s no stopping this ride you never called to drag you along The talking heads are screaming with nothing much to say And you’re just busy dreaming of worlds far away There’s no stopping this ride you never called to drag you along Who has time to break down? Who has time to cry? When living isn’t easy you start to wonder why There’s no stopping this ride you never called to drag you along

When the week's nearly done and you're stuck in the sun and the summer, it lasts the whole year When your stomach is spoiled from the work and the toil so you can't even fancy a beer If your legs they're as heavy as steel and your feet, well they no longer fear Then kick off your boots and roll up a joint and join us in burning our tears When your brain's all a-rot so you can't hold a thought and all of your circuits are fried If your patience's run thin from wearing a grin when really you're screamin' inside If your legs they're as heavy as steel and your feet, well they no longer fear Then kick off your boots and roll up a joint and join us in burning our tears Now don't take me an ass, for I only speak crass, and I know that my days, they are numbered But I can't help but cry when the weeks of my life they are wasted on hourly lumber 'Cause my legs they're as heavy as steel and my feet, well they no longer fear So let's kick off our boots and roll up a joint and join us in burning our tears So kick off your boots and roll up a join and join us in burning our tears

Dead Happy 05:13
The alarm shouts once again and demands the day begin, ready or not But there’s none too much outside to draw her out as she cries "please, come again.” Well all that she can dream is a family of her own, a little one to feed. But the bank’s been broken clean so the baby’s out Either way the ground is gonna quake It’s bound to make you shiver, but your luck is what you make So brace yourself, and don’t you hesitate, for it just might pass you by All That I’m asking is for a little break just every now and then, just a hint of grace so I can feel my feet hit the bottom. Jack, he’s got the blues he just received the news that he’s not well. Heartsick for the girl named Jezebel, it seems time and time again. But there’s no one left to blame but his own sad, sorry self, we’re all the same just searching for some way to numb it out Either way the ground is gonna quake It’s bound to make you shiver, but your luck is what you make So brace yourself, and don’t you hesitate for it just might pass you by All That I’m asking is for a little break just every now and then, just a hint of grace so I can feel my feet hit the bottom. We worry for the war, We worry for the peace, and in between. Well maybe our concern, it’ll save us all. Either way the ground is gonna quake It’s bound to make you shiver, but your luck is what you make So brace yourself, and don’t you hesitate for it just might pass you by All That I’m asking is for a little break just every now and then, just a hint of grace so I can feel my feet hit the bottom.
