YESTERYEAR >
{download mp3}
You don't think time really matters
Wait here and the train's gonna shatter your roadblocks
And grind you into dust
Trends fall with a change in the weather
Why try to put 'em back together
With duct tape and strands of musty thread
These are the days we're living in the haze of yesteryear
When you were young and everywhere you looked was green and clear
These are the days we're living in a boomer biosphere
Someday you'll find the air is not so bad outside
You can laugh at my clothes if you want to
But you're a debriefed statue holding onto the past
Let's see how long you last
Watching reruns of Leave It To Beaver
When are you gonna trade in the Cleaver
For Beavis and Butthead's little smirk?
We're just counting off the weekends
Running after leaves, running out of time
We try to take back what we lost
No matter what it costs
To the here and now
Doesn't matter if you've been there done that
You've found a home there and now you never wanna come back
To read tomorrow's mail
One day you're a crack theologian
Ten years and you're passing out the Trojans at K-Mart
Just look how far you've come

DIAMOND LIFE >
download mp3}
Well you followed the directions
And made the right connections
And everything is going exactly as you planned it in your life
In your life
But you woke up this morning
Like a clown who was performing
To the audience conforming
With the stale jokes and routines you borrowed
That you borrowed
And out on the playground you see children are at play
And something inside you says you've thrown it all away
They have the spark that is fading with every step you take
Does it shine in your little diamond life?
They don't have the money
Or covet the possessions
Or care about the power
Or cultivate obsessions like you do
Like you do
And ordinary people with ordinary problems
And ordinary reasons for reaching to the bottom of this life
Don't have much more
August light is rich today
There's still time for you to say
You won't live and you won't die for diamonds

SHADOW OF A DOUBT >
{download mp3}
I left the country on a Monday
Touched down on Tuesday afternoon
You know I never really knew where I was going
I guess that's why I put me on the plane
And you were in my hands
And in my head
And in my heart
And in my youth
I always thought that you'd be waiting
And I wondered if you gave me
What no place ever will
But I hardly ever wonder anymore
I strolled across the Wall of China
Hitchhiked the highways of Japan
I finally lost my will to find direction
crawling in the Indonesian sand
Been saving all your cards and letters
Been hoping we could work it out
But I really wasn't sure until I saw you
Standing in the shadow of a doubt
