Find Myself

babe, I know you’ll be so bad for me, bad
but you make me feel weak in the knees, i go weak in the knees
can’t you see what you do to me, you have me true
every time that i find myself within you

Dark
04:11

oh, nighttime, bring your dark and drowsy folds
oh, nighttime, bring your wild thoughts of grandiloquence
resting themselves in the crook of my shoulder and
building a network of nests on endless seaming ends of the bedspread head
ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
at daylight break, i will them stay for teatime
but like a rambling lover they will take flight
in the early hours, sunbeams gently flowing
through the blinds, soaking up those behind with the chains of the well-behaved
with the chains of the well-behaved
whoa, whoa, oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh leave me here behind in the dark
chains held together tight by warden daylight
relinquished by the blustering tides of the pull of the moonbeam’s pride
beaming inside of what pieces of life here arrive between left ear and right
congregated for sermons elated, for ballads of the crimson tide
with the chains of the well-behaved
whoa, whoa, oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh leave me here behind in the dark

I To You
02:44
|

|
you’re a summer breeze, you’re a wave on the sea
you’re a fistful of sand, i’m starting to comprehend
but what am i to you?
oh leave me here behind in the dark
you’re a mouthful of fire, you’re a spark on a wire
you’re a passing blast of heat, a chemical relief

Lament

i wanted to love you and to give you everything, but it was too late
the night you left, i thought i’d go blind from tears, but it was too late
i wanted to love you and to give you all of me, but it was too late
the night you left, i thought i’d go blind from tears, but it was too late
help me, baby, i’m addicted to the words that flow from your mind and
help me, baby, i can’t see whether this is for real
help me, baby, i’m addicted to the words that fall from your mind and
help me, baby, i can’t see whether this is for real
‘cause you made me want and want and want and want
to love you and to give you all of me, but it was too late
the night you left, i thought i’d go blind from tears, but it was too late

Stardust
05:44
|

|
of all my useless alibis, of all my promises to god
i’m still on this lonesome byway, stepping out on this highway
without so much a left look or a right
next time you ask me if i’m alright, take a good look in my eyes
wonder if then you could see all the truest parts of me
bursting underneath the phrase “i’m fine”
nothing can pick me up, nothing can bring me down
dust to stars and stars to dust, said the star-made man
rest assured, our worried hearts will soon enough be sand
my love is heavy, my love is light
my love burns quiet, my love burns bright
but dust to stars and stars to dust, said the star-made man
rest assured our worried hearts will soon enough be sand
oh, oh, oh oh oh...
standing here, i can see nothing to fear
and looking ‘round, i can see i’m standing on the ground

Sunshine

whoa, can you feel that sunshine, can you feel it, can you feel it coming ‘round the bend?
whoa, can you feel that love, can you feel it, can you feel it coming ‘round the bend?
someday we’ll look around and see
everybody singing as freely as you and me
but whoa, can you feel that joy, can you feel it coming ‘round the bend?
don’t forget that, don't forget that...
whoa, can you feel that peace? feel it, feel it coming ‘round the bend

The Killer's Ballad
04:26
|

|
go down low, low, low as you can go
then dig forever, there you’ll find me, my psyche
i can hurt, and i can kill, i can terrorize
i can lie, and i can deceive, i can manipulate anyone that i please
so go down low, low, low as you can go
then dig forever, there you’ll find me, my psyche
and when you come crashing down
you’ll look around and never know that it was me
so go down low, low, low as you can go
then dig forever, there you’ll find me, my psyche

The Exodus of Misery
04:17
|
|||
|
sometimes when i open my eyes, half my body’s paralyzed
and the weight of the world clings behind my eyelids, black and white
leave me be, don’t want to fight
sit on up now, give yourself a good slap
find your shoes, sugar, now you’re on the right track
give yourself some space to breathe and then you’ll be
on your feet singin’ “don’t you worry”
sing “i can take whatever comes my way, i can take whatever comes!
i can take whatever comes my way, i can take whatever comes!”
don’t you know that when you’re feeling low, that you can make it go
far from home and free your soul, just take a walk right down the road
roll along right down the road
walk along here to the beat and feel the street beneath your feet
bring your friends and soon you’ll see what medicine is melody
like these crazy cats, running ‘round in their flats, singing
“life gave me more than i need! it’s a miracle that i should breathe in this world,
it’s the exodus of misery!”
cause i can take whatever comes my way, i can take whatever comes
i can take whatever comes my way, i can take whatever comes

Until My Body Breaks
02:51
|

|
oh my love, i cannot see your face but i will love you until my body breaks
though you roam as free as birds and snakes, i will love you until my body breaks
watch the sea calling out your name, as i will love you until my body breaks
rising high from the dust of days, i will love you until my body breaks
though we go through many earths and quakes, i will love you until my body breaks
when the world turns and backs away, i will love you until my body breaks
every sunrise across your face, i will love you until my body breaks
open eyes and illuminate how i will love you until my body breaks
lay your head, rest easy in this vow: i will love you beyond what life allows

Beyond the Gate
04:53

if we run now, they might not catch us, love
past all traces of the life they’d have us bluff
if we run now, they might not catch us, love
let them wonder where we’ll lay our heads tonight
if we run now, they might not catch us, love
tell them of this race that we have had enough
run now and don’t look back, leave regret behind
meet me at the gate and see what lies beyond
give all that we have to our new paradigm
trusting in all that we don’t know to carry us ever on
when we lay our bodies down tonight under the stars
our hearts will rise so bright, they might not come back down

This Guitar Was Stolen Along With Years Of Our Lives
by Ceschi

Sometimes you come across an artist that is compelled to do what they do. I appreciate the musicality and the arrangement and the artistry of the songs. He sings and plays like his life depends on it. I appreciate the humanity of the lyrics… Like reading Tortilla Flats, or watching Nobody’s Fool. Ceschi is a bright star. I’m glad he’s loose in the world.
