We still listen to high school football On the radio in West Texas Lights to shine bright every Friday night And you can drive ninety miles an hour Down the highway straight to ' Cisco The cops are at the ball game, they're getting tight And the sky gets wider and wider It disappear like the day Into the great divide you fade away And it's another world all together Right in the middle of God's country Smells like money, smells like shit Yeah, it smells like hell But when the cattle's all together And the pump jacks all are moving And the [cartons] are in blooming It smells like nothing else And the sky gets wider and wider Just like a brand new day Out in the great divide you fade away It's the land of my people My dream is come out here to find a bigger piece of sky It's all the winners and all the losers Real good people but just like you and I Hey, but nothing's really changed much As you drive on down at twenty Mexicans still work out in the field But everybody's dirty Man they're all a bunch of gamblers But some got rich Yeah, but they're gamblers still And the sky gets wider and wider The day's gonna be your day Out in the great divide you fade away And it's the land of my people My dream is come out here to find a bigger piece of sky It's all the winners and all the losers Real good people but just like you and I We still listen to high school football On the radio in West Texas Lights to shine bright every Friday night

O little town of Bethlehem How still we see thee lie Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight For Christ is born of Mary And gathered all above While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love O morning stars together Proclaim the holy birth And praises sing to God the King And Peace to men on earth Away in a manger No crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus Lay down His sweet head The stars in the sky Look down where He lay The little Lord Jesus Asleep on the hay Asleep on the hay O holy Child of Bethlehem Descend to us, we pray Cast out our sin and enter in Be born to us today We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell O come to us, abide with us Our Lord Emmanuel

And I would turn on the TV But it's so embarrassing To see all the other people I don't know what they mean And it was magic at first When they spoke without sound But now this world is gonna hurt You better turn that thing down Turn it around Well, it wasn't me, says the boy with the gun, Sure, I pulled the trigger but it needed to be done, Because life's been killing me ever since it begun You can't blame me because I'm to young You can't blame me, sure the killer was my son But I didn't teach him to pull the trigger of the gun It's the killin' on his TV screen, You can't blame me it's those images he's seen Well, you can't blame me, says the media man I wasn't the one who came up with the plan But I just point my camera at what the people wanna see, Now it's a two-way mirror, and you can't blame me You can't blame me, says the singer of the song And the maker of the movie which he based his life on It's only entertainment as anyone can see It's smoke machines and makeup, man you can't fool me It was you, it was me, it was every man, We've all got the blood on our hands We only receive what we demand, If we want hell, then hell's what we'll have And I would turn on the TV But it's so embarrassing To see all the other people I don't know what they mean And it was magic at first But let everyone down But now this world is gonna hurt You better turn it around Turn it around

And by the way, you know that hope Will make you strange Make you blink, make you blink Make you sink It will make you afraid of change Enough to blame the box with the view of the world And the walls that fill the frame I turn it up But then I turn it off Because I can't stand When they start to talk about The hurting and killing Whose shoes are we feeling The damage and ruin And the things that we're doing Gotta We gotta stop We gotta turn it all off We gotta rewind Start it up again Because we fell across the fall line Ain't nothing sacred anymore Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah Somebody saw him jump Yeah, but nobody saw him slip I guess he lost a lot a hope And then he lost a grip And now he's lying in the freeway In the middle of this mess Guess we lost another one, just like the other one Optimistic, hypocrite that didn't have the nerve to quit The things that kept him wanted more Until he finally reached the core He fell across the fall line Ain't nothing sacred anymore Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

The air was more than human And the heat was more than hungry And the cars were square and spitting Diesel fumes The bulls were running wild Because they're big and mean and sacred And the children were playing cricket with no shoes The next morning we woke up, man With a seven-hour drive Well there we were stuck in Port Blair Where boats break and children stare And there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven And there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven Disembarking from the port With no mistakes of any sort Moving south the engine running smooth Officials were quite friendly Once we drowned them with our sweet talk And we bribed them with our cigarettes and booze The next morning we woke up man With the sunrise to right Moving back north to Port Blair Where boats break and children stare And there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven Yes, and there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven

There's traffic in the sky And it doesn't seem to be getting much better There's kids playing games on the pavement Drawing waves on the pavement Shadows of the planes on the pavement It's enough to make me cry But that don't seem like it would make it feel better Maybe it's a dream and if I scream It will burst at the seams Whole place will fall into pieces And then they'd say Well how could we have known? I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no, no If you keep adding stones Soon the water will be lost in the well Puzzle pieces in the ground No one ever seems to be digging Instead they're looking up towards the heavens With their eyes on the heavens There are shadows on the way to the heavens It's enough to make me cry That don't seem like it would make it feel better The answers could be found We could learn from digging down But no one ever seems to be digging Instead they'll say Well how could we have known? I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no, no If you keep adding stones Soon the water will be lost in the well Words of wisdom all around But no one ever seems to listen They're talking about their plans on the paper Building up from the pavement There shadows from the scrapers on the pavement It's enough to make me sigh That don't seem like it would make it feel better The words are all around But the words are only sounds And no one ever seems to listen Instead they'll say Well how could we have known? I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no, no If you keep adding stones Soon the water will be lost in the well, lost in the well

When your mind is a mess so is mine I can't sleep 'Cause it hurts when I think my thoughts aren't at peace With the plans that we make, chances we take They're not yours they're not mine There's waves I can't break All the words that we say ain't the words that we mean Words can fall short can't see the unseen 'Cause the world is awake for somebody's sake Now please close your eyes woman please get some sleep And know that if I knew all of the answers I would not hold them from you Know all of the things that I know 'Cause we've told each other There is no other way Too much silence can be misleading You're drifting I can hear it in the way that you're breathing We don't really need to find reason 'cause obviously know that it came But it's leaving, it's leaving Leaving like a day that's done a part of a season Resolve is just a concept that's just dead as the leaves But at least we could sleep it's all that we need When we wake we would find our minds would be free to go to sleep And know that if I knew all of the answers I would not hold them from you Know all of the things that I know 'Cause we've told each other There is no other way

Who's to say What's impossible Well they forgot This world keeps spinning And with each new day I can feel a change in everything And as the surface breaks reflections fade But in some ways they remain the same And as my mind begins to spread it's wings There's no stopping curiosity I want to turn the whole thing upside down I'll find the things they say just can't be found I'll share this love I find with everyone We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs I don't want this feeling to go away Who's to say I can't do everything Well I can try And as I roll along I begin to find Things aren't always just what they seem I want to turn the whole thing upside down I'll find things they say just can't be found I'll share this love I find with everyone We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs This world keeps spinning and there's no time to waste Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round and Upside down Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found I don't want this feeling to go away Please don't go away Please don't go away Please don't go away Is this how it's supposed to be Is this how it's supposed to be

And I will wait here awhile Just long enough to be sure that you didn't make a wrong turn And I wait long enough Maybe an hour or two Before I decide It wasn't me it was you Wasn't me it was you And I would like you to know Although it seems sad to say This was only the worst hour of my day The worst hour of my day How long has it been on your mind? Do you think about it when we lie? I think it's a big mistake 'Cause I think that we could make it last Even if it's just for awhile Wait here for now Just along enough to be Sure that you really want to go through with this 'Cause I really wanna go through with this And do you really wanna go through with this?

If they tell me that the bees don't make honey anymore What am I supposed to tell you If they tell me that the ocean is tired of her shores Tell me what am I supposed to tell you When I can't tell you anything but the truth I can't tell you anything but the truth What happens to an eagle's nest in a storm How does the mama keep the baby warm The wind is telling us that it's time And what if we're not ready to fly Well, I can't tell you anything but the truth I cant tell you anything but the truth Tree tops they touch the ground In the morning walk with no sound Hear no birds, hear no planes Through the mud, feel the clay Build it up, make it sing Make it strong, give it wings But I can't tell you anything but the truth And I can't tell you anything but the truth What is this place, who am I Why did we come here What is this place, who am I Why did we come here I don't know, I don't know But I don't know That we're meant to know I don't know, I don't know But I don't know That we're meant to know

Hey little girl you might not know this song This is not the kind of song that you can sing along to Hey little girl Maybe some day Least that's what all the good people will say Hey little girl, look what you've done You've gone and stole my heart and made it your own You've stole my heart and made it your own Hey little girl, black and white and right and wrong Only live inside a song I will sing to you You don't ever have to feel lonely You will never lose any tears You don't have to feel any sadness When you look back on the years How can I look you in the eyes And tell you such big lies The best I can do is try to show you How to love with no fear My little girl You've gone and stole my heart and made it your own You've stole my heart and made it your own

But there is no combination of words I could put on a post card No song that I could sing, but I can try because this is your heart Our dreams, and they are made out of real things Like a, shoe box of photographs Sepia-toned loving Love is the answer, At least for most of the questions in my heart Why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard? It's not always easy and Sometimes life can be deceiving I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together Mm, it's so much better when we're together Well it's so much better when we're together Yeah, it's so much better when we're together Mm, so much better when we're together And all of these moments Just might find their way into my dreams tonight But I know that they'll be gone When the morning light sings Or brings new things For tomorrow night you see That they'll be gone too Too many things I gotta do But if all of these dreams might find their way Into my day to day scene I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between With only two, just me and you Not so many things we got to do Or places we got to be We'll sit beneath the mango tree now Well it's so much better when we're together Mm, we're somewhere in between together Mm, it's so much better when we're together Yeah, it's so much better when we're together I believe in memories They look so, so pretty when I sleep Hey now, and when I wake up, You look so pretty sleeping next to me But there is, there is not enough time, And there is no, no song I could sing And there is no combination of words I could say But I will still tell you one thing We're better together We're so much better when we're together We're so much better when we're together

The light was leaving and the west it was blue The children's laughter saying they're skipping just like the stones they threw The voices echoed across the ways it's getting late It was just another night with the sunset and The moonrise not so far behind To give us just enough light To lay down underneath the stars listening to Papa's translations of the stories across the sky, we drew our own constellations The west winds often last too long But when they come down nothing ever feels the same Sheltered under the Kamani tree waiting for the passing rain Clouds keep moving to uncover the sea Stars above us chasing the day away To find the stories that we sometimes need Listen close enough all else fades Fades away It was just another night with the sunset and The moonrise not so far behind To give us just enough light To lay down underneath the stars listening to All the translations of the stories across the sky to do our own constellations

There's a black hole pulling me in I slowly bend till I see the back of my own sins I stole my soul from myself now I wonder Wonder, is there somebody with a perfect plan That goes boom when it's stamped and we could understand How the gods of old used to clap their hands to make thunder So we're clapping and we're laughing like it was so absurd In the future we'll be laughing at who we were right now As man plays god with the land that he plunders To the one unknown no one can know nor see That's resistant to greed If we listen to time after time, time can never go under There's this vine trying to climb Through the window into my life I don't mind I don't mind I don't mind There's this wine trying to find It's way from the bottle into my mind In my mind In my mind In my mind And so this vine is trying to climb Through the window into my life To bring me symmetry And memories of a backlit breeze Back into a dream on the ground Looking up at the sun coming down Into a world of boys and girls Are holding handheld devices While they're eating and they're sleeping And they're dreaming of the prices We'll be paying down the line When the ice melts maybe it will turn to wine And all the greatest of the heroes started jumping from the books They started wearing ones and zeros Looking more and more like crooks They stole the sunlight from the future Took a sip, drained half the glass, and put it back And a lot of people like to have a feast Not so many could stomach the killing Lot of traffic on the streets, so who's really doing all the drilling Keep on filling what can never be full My imagination has got a hold on me There's this vine trying to climb Through the window into my life I don't mind I don't mind I don't mind There's this wine trying to find It's way from the bottle into my mind In my mind In my mind In my mind
