Open your eyes; open your eyes
You’re driving me underground
Let in the light; why don’t you let in the light
Tear all the curtains down tonight
You’re driving me out; you drive me away
You’re wanting me so far gone; you want me to stay
There’s nowhere to go; and there’s nothing to say
You’re driving me underground; you drive me insane
You drive me down, down underground
You’re driving me underground, driving me down
I’m losing the sky; you know I’m losing the sky
I’m taking the shutters down tonight
You’re driving me out; you drive me away
You’re wanting me – so – far - gone; you want me to stay
If these are the nights; and if these are the days
Why do we hang around; why do we stay
I’m down in a hole, nobody knows
Nobody comes around, nobody goes
Somebody open a window, somebody let in some air
Then maybe tomorrow I’ll still be here
But you’re driving me out……
You know you’re driving me under
You drive me into the ground
Why don’t we tear up the curtains?
Take the shutters down
Take the shutters down

Lightshow

All those generations of hiding away
Of being thankful and knowing your place
Among the shadows a spirit is raised
Spirit is raised
He’s gotta light gonna turn it on
Turn it on you now
Cos he’s a light show
Yeah he’s a light show giving it out
All those generations of living so low
Of saying nothing and nothing to show
Among the shadows a spirit it glows
Spirit it glows
Turn it on you now
There’s something in the shadows
The darkest of days, a day of sorrow
Of sorrow and pain, but he’s tomorrow
He isn’t afraid, isn’t afraid
Turn it on you now
Turn it on cos he’s a light show

What Do You Say?
03:22

Well I find myself outside
In a place without your time, without any time
And the darkest days go by
And you’re eating me alive, and I don’t know why
I don’t understand, I’m starting to fray
I’m waving my hands is that OK
What do you say?
I’m out in the cold; I’m out of the light
I want it to end is that alright
What do you say?
So these acid rainfall tears
Gonna sting my face for years, for so many years
Like a lost and lonely child
Well I take myself inside and I wonder why
I don’t understand, I’m starting to fray
I’m waving my hands is that OK
What do you say?
I wanted the car, I wanted to drive
I wanted to crash right through your life
What do you say?
And I’m not for turning, and I’m not for turning
I don’t understand, I’m starting to fray
I’m waving my hands is that OK
What do you say?
I want it to feel; I want it alive
I want it to be is that alright
What do you say?
And I want it today, what do you say?
And I’m not for turning, and I’m not for hanging round

Tanks and Guns

If you deal in destruction and powers your game
You forfeit the many the few to be saved
If you listen to no-one cos there’s no-one to trust
The company you’re keeping well it just went bust
If you’re telling me that’s the way you do it
That’s the way you do it, ride on
If you think that young people
Can’t be bothered to care
Don’t you know that you’re missing all the points?
And I swear, oh and I swear
If you’re telling me that’s the way you do it
That’s the way you do it, ride on x3
If you offer protection from all this radical zeal
Then you give them tanks and guns
To do the deal well just get real
If you’re telling me that’s the way you do it
That’s the way you do it, ride on
Why don’t you deal in salvation?
Why don’t you start a new game?
And make certain everyone has their say
But until that day
If you’re telling me that’s the way you do it
That’s the way you do it, ride on x3
Ride on

Invisible Boxer
03:29

I’m halfway living and I’m halfway dead
I’m headed somewhere well I hope its bed
Mouth is drier than a midday sun
I been hoping that these days were done
Cos I been fighting for a long, long time
Eyelids hanging in a slack jaw line
Sticky thinking and a rubber tongue
I been hoping that these fighting days were done
So don’t you hide, don’t you fold up like a butterfly
Take the pain and don’t ask why
Why oh why
I’m talking me and my invisible
Me and my invisible boxer
Ring that bell
I can’t take this punishment no more
I’m halfway living and I’m halfway dead
My head in heaven and my feet in lead
Another marathon I have to run
I been hoping that these days were done
Cos I been fighting for a long, long time
Taking morphine in a dry white wine
I’m hanging in there now whatever comes
I been hoping that these fighting days were done
So don’t you cry, see me grinning in my linen shrine
Take the pain and don’t ask why
Why oh why

Resolution Day
07:15
|
|||
|
Well I was hoping once it all came through
That you’d be honey with me, I’d be sweet with you
Times would follow when the dogs would lie
And you would talk to me and help me see
Some kind of guiding light
Alright, I believe in, alright, I believe in
I believe in resolution day
Well I was thinking once the deal was made
That I would finally get my resolution day
But you’re still standing right behind that gun
You got the one good thing that all this brings
And took it on the run
Alright……etc
Well I was hoping once it all came through
That you’d be honey with me I’d be sweet with you
But you’re still dancing on my early grave
You say that ‘one good deed don’t set you free
Don’t serve to get you saved’
Alright……etc
Resolution day
So give me my, my peace of mind
Don’t let it end this way

Electricity

It’s on the radio in the sky
It’s all the people I love
I see you coming I feel alright
Come on and power me up
Electrify me
Electricity
It’s on the journey it’s here at home
It’s all the places I love
Its altogether it’s all alone
Come on and power me up
Electrify me
Electricity
I wanna rush like a lightning strike
Wanna buzz like a neon light
Wanna moment I can seize
I wanna be electricity
Electrify me
Come on and power me up
Electricity

Long Shot
03:52
|

|
I’m a solid man, I never did let go
It’s not for want of trying but I, I never had to blow
And I say no, no, no, no
I never had no chance to blow
I’m a simple man, I never did leave home
It’s not for want of trying but I, I never had to go
And I say no, no, no, no
I never had no need to go
But then you came by with those dreamy eyes
And that natural smile, oh my oh my
Everybody’s telling me it’s one in a million
Everybody say’s it’s a long shot but I don’t care
Everything is fine, I kinda get along
I could’a looked for trouble but I, I never did no wrong
And I said no, no, no, no
I never did nobody wrong
Cos I’m a solid man, I kinda let it be
I could’a chased the future but I, I never found a dream
And I said no, no, no, no
I never found myself a dream
But then you came by with those dreamy eyes
And that casual style, oh my, oh my
Everybody’s telling me it’s one in a million
Everybody say’s it’s a long shot but I don’t care

My Release

|
You see this is my release
It aint no good you put me down
I’m gonna get me free
Can’t you see it’s my one relief
It’s my consolation, this is my release
The hubbub of a working week
It’s taking it out on me
I took the oath but now I need
Exemption, exemption
You see this is my release…..etc
The chatter of a sober mind
It’s making my mouth run dry
I took the oath but need to find
Medicine, medicine
Cos it’s a fragile time; it’s a fragile love
So make up your mind
You see this is my release…..etc
Don’t curse the darkness don’t try and see
This is my release
My, my release
This is my release

This Nashville trio make ultra-catchy indie rock (in the '90s sense of the term) with taut musicianship and a freewheeling spirit.

This Philadelphia act is a revelation: barnstorming songs that thunder and howl, full of tension and manic energy.
