Love Made Us

I’m mourning every night
the life I thought was mine
and my dimming light
that shined so bright
I couldn’t see the darkness hidden in your eyes
All I need to know is you’re alright
even if it’s a lie
all I need to know is you’re alright
baby please don’t lie
I’m learnin it the hard way for myself
Our demons are our own they don’t see anybody else
I draw strength from the light of our love
But It don’t shine unless we leave the dark behind
I know it’s hard sometimes
When the well that used to overflow is dry
I don’t know why we can’t get right
I guess we need something we just can’t seem to find
I’m learnin it the hard way once again
Our demons are our own should I just worry ‘bout myself?
I draw strength from the light of our love
It don’t shine unless we leave the dark behind
Love made us, but love won’t break us
I draw strength from the light of our love
Let it shine, don’t let it die

Beyond the Blue

I see the great bear
Shine across the sky
Hear the wind through the trees cry
Your name tonight
Everything remembers your love
And now you’re way beyond the blue
Beyond this heartache
And I don’t know how the world can still be
Turning without you
I’m just trying to keep the fire burning
Like it burned in you
You’re way beyond the blue
I step into the night
And I feel you all around me
Become the light
And now you’re way beyond the blue
Beyond this heartache
And I don’t know how the world can still be
Turning without you
I’m just trying to keep the fire burning
Like it burned in you
You’re way beyond the blue

Like Water

Hold me down and let me see if I go under
I’ve never been as deep as now
All along I thought I could see the bottom
What am I looking at now?
All this time I spent learning how to suffer
Don’t you take it from me now
If I don’t go to where the light leaves the water
How can I use this to be proud?
If I’d have known it’d go this way
I’d have never even came
I would have stayed back
With all that’s familiar and safe
You knew there’d be a day
When my world would turn away
You just poured out and rained down
All that I could take
And I’ll hold on to every single drop of love you gave
And I’ll pour out and rain down all this world can take

Washed Away
02:12
|
|||
|
I dreamt that a great wave
overcame the place we all return to wake
Every blade of grass
every oaken branch submerged within its grasp
And then I see
Just along the shore
Love waits for me
Shining like a beacon over everything
Open up my heart
Let it feel the waves
Let go of the guilt and shed all of my shame
I wake up and I have changed

Safe Passage

Comin up on another year
Countin all the ways that you’re still here
And wishing love would fill up this hole
That’s ripped from my soul
Lately it’s been filled with fear
It’s a long way back from where I’ve gone
That rivers just too wide for me to cross
I been walking through dark days
Let the rough side drag the whole way
I’m trying everything to feel like
I did in your light
Cause lately mine just wants to fade
It’s a long way back from where I’ve gone
That rivers just too wide for me to cross
I’m trying to get back what I’ve lost
Even when i had it all i couldn’t pay the cost
I know I’ve been living in the past too much
And I know nothing’s gonna be the way it was
That river’s gonna flood and fill up my world with love and only love

Southern Sun

|
Red door sunrise in his old room
Wake up next to my picture of you
I always felt like we both knew
But we were scared to choose
Lover lead me out into the open
Your love shining all over my skin
And we’ll both need help
Come July 12th
This life tore my heart right in two
Pieces I’m offering up to you
I always felt like we both knew
Baby I’m not scared to lose
Lover lead me out into the open
Your love shining all over my skin
And we’ll both need help
Come July 12th
So baby let’s give in
Your love’s just like the southern sun

Under the Rain

I know my favorite day
Singing come undone all the way
Down the Golden isles highway
Our love shining bright and true through the pain
The rain it falls so hard
I can almost feel it open up my heart
The feeling I’m longing for
Is the four of us in the car
Singing along to faith no more
Our love shining bright and true while it pours
My heart soars like a hawk
I feel it flying over us as we sing with our hearts wide open under the rain

The Mother

Oh mother where am I now?
I’m stoned and starving with no way down
This burning in my gut’s gonna spread and eat me up if I don’t find out what it wants
Well I know the dogs are hungry
They’ve been at me all night
I’ve been trying to let it all out
But I can’t get it right
I lost myself for a while
This night has opened
My heart to everything the mother wanted me to see
And I can feel that you’re free
Oh mother look at me now
I’m tripping on the couch and crying my eyes out
I almost lost my mind but I just couldn’t let it slide
I’m trying to deserve the love I receive
I know the dogs are hungry
They’ve been at me all night
I’ve been trying to let it all out
but I can’t get it right
I lost myself for a while
This night has opened my heart to everything the mother wanted me to see
Everything the mother wanted me to see
This night has opened my heart to everything that I could only ever dream

The Dreamer
06:45
|
|||
|
When the moon is sinking low
And the sun comes through the door
The oak is burning slow
The daylight hits the smoke
Then I’ll know that we’re home
And I breathe out your ghost
Do moments
One by one fall into place?
An ocean of ice that holds all of our days
I get lost trying to live among the waves
But I can’t stay
When I dream I’m out there searching
For you in that frozen ocean
For just one moment
Dreams are the only place
That I can be with you
Where that ocean opens up
and let’s me in
I can still feel it all when I’m awake
A vagabond of dreams led by love wave to wave
I won’t let our song ever fade away
But I can’t stay
When I dream I’m out there searching
For you in that frozen ocean
For just one moment
Dreams are the only place
That I can be with you
Where that ocean opens up
and let’s me in
The only place I’ll ever see your face again

The Burden of Restlessness
by King Buffalo
supported by 5 fans who also own “The Dreamer”
Very dark and melancholic and also a progressive album. Beat and atmosphere remind me strongly of TOOL.
go to album
supported by 4 fans who also own “The Dreamer”
The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

Strange, Strange Times
by The Ugly Kings
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.

Cold Years, from Scotland, burn through 13 high-octane rock & roll songs that conjure images of factory towns and wide-open roads.

Driving and fuzzed out rock and roll from the Motor City on the great Feel It Records.
