Parade lyrics - Damien Jurado

I'm coming to town, get ready to leave
Pack up the things, roll up the sleeves

So different

Can't tell the things your money saved
Get in the car for the parade

So different

So different

Lose My Head lyrics - Damien Jurado

I won't pretend not to see you looking
I smile and walk the other way

Kept alive in pictures
Still shots of you sleeping
And I play the movies in my mind

If I ever lose my head
Don't ever let me lose my head

High above me far from all who see you
You play the hero in my song

This is my blue one
That one makes me happy
Call in another round of cheer

If I ever lose my head
Don't ever let me lose my head

If I ever lose my head
Don't ever let me lose my head

I won't pretend not to see you looking
I smile and walk the other way

Kept alive in pictures
Still shots of you sleeping
And I play the movies in my mind

If I ever lose my head
Don't ever let me lose my head

If I ever lose my head
Don't ever let me lose my head

Spitting Teeth lyrics - Damien Jurado

If he says too much
Then you should shut him up
For I am a violent man

From town to town
You laugh out loud
Share a drink and smile

December will bring harsh winds
And I, the battered face
Beaten to a pulp they will not recognize you

Can you still kiss with a fat lip
Can you still hug her with a broken limb

Pick the glass from your face
And spit out broken teeth

How I Broke My Legs lyrics - Damien Jurado

This is how I broke both of my legs

Won't run to you
Won't run to you
I will not follow

Won't sing to you
Won't dance with you
I will not lead

This is how I broke both of my legs
Jumping from high above your ledge

I won't run to you
Won't dance with you
I will not follow

I won't run to you
Won't sing for you
I will not fold

Won't sing for you
Won't dance with you
I will not fold

The Killer lyrics - Damien Jurado

Go put out the fire
And I'll meet you on the other side
Walk with me alone
I will not harm you
Or let you die

The paper said I'm a killer
Papers lie

Tomorrow we will drive
To North California state line
If you call off the guns
I'll call off the dogs

Go put out the fire
Boy, I'll meet you on the other side
Walk with me alone
Just might cut you
Or leave you to die

The papers said I'm a killer
The papers were right

Tomorrow we will drive
To your brand new burial site
If you call off the guns
I'll call off the dogs
If you call off the guns, well,
I'll call of the dogs...

They'll never find you
They'll never catch me, no...

Flowers In The Yard lyrics - Damien Jurado

Saturday will be the day
The day won't be back
Saturday will be the day, she said
We won't be back

Flowers in the yard
They need water
Give them all your love
Don't let the die like we did

Saturday will be the day
The day you won't come back
Saturday will be the day, she said
Won't be back

Flowers in the yard
They need water
Give them all your love
Don't let them die like we did

The child in the car
She's your daughter
Give her all your love
Don't let her die like we did

"Ghost Of David" (2000)

Medication lyrics - Damien Jurado

It just so happens I have many concerns
My brother's down the road and my lover in town
They both need affection
And some kind of love

Well I'm the one who gives it at any given time
From two in the morning to six
Call me up and cry

My lover keeps it secret that we meet under covers
When asked by her man if we two are lovers
She says, "I hardly know him.
Besides, he's not my type."

Her man's a policeman with a keen sense of trouble
He's known just by danger
And all kinds of liars

Brother called this morning in a terrible panic
Spies in the closet, bugs in the attic
He screams bloody murder saying,
"We're all gonna die.

Death is upon me, I know 'cause he showed me
Pictures of graveyards and us underneath."

I'm losing my hearing from my brother screaming,
"They're coming to get me and
Someone call the police."

Two in the morning, the phone disconnected
Her man knows I'm calling, it's what I expected
A note on my backdoor saying, "Baby not tonight."

So I sit with my brother who is nursing a cut wrist
He's mumbling "Forgive me."
And "Don't let them take me away."

I can be a good boy and stay out of trouble
Jackie I love you and
Don't let them take your brother

Strapped to a table, go in electrodes
"Jackie come save me the doctors will kill me."
"No, they're here to help you
Straighten out your mind."

The TV is blaring with some preacher saying that
God is among us and he hears our cries

Lord, do me a favor
It's wrong but I ask you
Take my brother's life

'Cause he's sick of the suffering
The pills he's inhaling
The cross he is bearing
That is his trouble mind

Desert lyrics - Damien Jurado

Tell me when tomorrow comes
I'll be the first to ride
Start the car and honk the horn
I'll be right outside

Pour a drink and open wide
I have things to tell
I have seen the brighter side
Of the roads that lead to hell

Yesterday is miles away
You'll miss it if you blink
And I've found my salvation in
The places where you drink

You can say you're on my side
And I know that's a lie
'Cause given the chance you'd stab my back
And leave me here to die

Just give me the keys tonight
I'm happy when I drive
Revenge is the perfect word
For what I have in mind

Desert lives bring deserted lives
I know from first hand
We're moved around like circus clowns
When laughter's in demand

Johnny Go Riding lyrics - Damien Jurado

Johnny let's go out riding
to a place outside of town
I go there every Sunday
To watch the sun go down

There's plenty of girls who know you
They've been asking where you've been
Johnny don't disappoint them
They'd all like to you see you away again

Willy, I don't think I'm ready
To leave this house of mine
You go out and tell them
I'm not the social kind

Some men they are lovers
And others the fighting type
Me, I'm in the middle of
Choosing which one I'd like to be

Judy, she's out catching
Rides in passing cars
The memories of me and her
Have burned out like the stars

But me, I'm not disappointed
In knowing that she's free
Someday down the line
I knew she'd one day up and leave

Willy, forget you're troubles
And lay back on the grass
There's no need to get nostalgic
Thinking about the past

What's gone is gone, what's here is now
She standing by a fence
She's wearing a beautiful party dress
And wanting you to dance

Great Today lyrics - Damien Jurado

I have the potential to be great today
Everyone I know will see the change
To be greater than I have before
Drawing lines that drag me to the floor

You could be so much better

Something tells me that you're on my side
Feeding me words that one day will kill my pride
You're too much for me that's what you said
You're too much for me that's what you said

I see potential
You could be so much better

You could be so much better

Tonight I Will Retire lyrics - Damien Jurado

Oh tonight I will retire
To the arms of my lover
The sweetest kiss she will give
As I lay down beside her

What will she think
When she awakes
Just to find I have left here

Oh tonight I will retire
To these hands with revolver
And I don't fear death
I will commit
Like an old friend I've known forever

So come on in, take me on
No I won't stay here no longer

And if I should taste fire
Save me not, I deserve to die

And oh tonight I will retire
To loving arms of my savior
And we will walk through his gates
To the skies of Heaven

And no more tears will I cry
Are my sins, are they forgiven

And if I should taste fire
Save me not, I deserve to die
And if I should taste fire
Save me not, I deserve to die

Ghost Of David lyrics - Damien Jurado

I've see you walk desert highways
Come on out they're waiting for you
Mother lost her one and only
Fear the worst for dead are many

And I've seen the ghost of David
In the house of his childhood
Forget him not, still he loves you
Life is short but love's eternal

Come on out we're waiting for you
Come on out we're waiting for you

Parking Lot lyrics - Damien Jurado

In the window by a phone
She waits for him at home
She waits a long time

In the vacant parking lot
Watching couples with their kids
Where did we go wrong

Words were spoken words were lost
Rings were given vows forgot
Where did we go wrong

Monday comes you find a note
I've left town this time for good
What did I do wrong

Vacant bedrooms pictures fade
Moments when the times were good
When did it all go bad

Rearview lyrics - Damien Jurado

She don't, she don't keep you moving
I know, I know how to move you
Does it every time
You're gonna lose your mind

She don't, she don't keep you in the rearview
She wants presents you can't give her
She does it every time
She's gonna lose her mind
She's talking to herself at night

Paxil lyrics - Damien Jurado

I need the [?] to come today
Because the medication kicked in
Beneath this big exterior
Is a heart that doesn't work

Leave me alone 'cause I'm
There's no telling what will go down

My head is on fire
My hands are on fire
I am on fire

My head is on fire
My hands are on fire
I am on fire

Walk With Me lyrics - Damien Jurado

Walk with me down the street
Walk with me to Water Street

December lyrics - Damien Jurado

Winter, put on your coat
They're expecting a cold one

Plenty of ice and snow
On the North Dakota plains

December, you killed a man
Trapped in his car for hours

He couldn't call for help
'Cause all of the lines were down

They found him in his car
Hands stuck to the steering wheel

Winter, I found it out
How you can be so cruel

Boy you just watch you back
'Cause one day I'll kill you too

They'll find you in your car
Hands stuck to steering wheel

They'll find you in your car
Hands stuck to steering wheel

Rosewood Casket lyrics - Damien Jurado

There's a little rosewood casket
That is resting on the stand
There's a package of old letters
Written by my loved one's hand

Go and bring them to me, brother
Come and sit upon my bed
Lay your head upon my pillow
While each cherished line is read

Read them gently to me, brother
Read them 'til I fall asleep
For the sleep to wake in heaven
Oh dear brother do not weep

Last night I saw him walking
With a lady by his side
And I thought I heard him tell her
She could never be his bride

When at last I'm gone forever
And my friends are gathered round
And my narrow grave is ready
In some lonesome church yard ground

There's a little rosewood casket
That is resting on the stand
There's a package of old letters
Written by my loved one's hand

Ohio lyrics - Damien Jurado

Out from my window across from the city
I have what's considered a good view
Two blocks from the subway, three from the fountain
Where I walk to break in new shoes

She stands on the sidewalk just waving at taxis
Like horses in parades in passing
I ask where she's headed she tells me,
"Ohio, I've not seen my mother in ages
It's been a long time, a real long time."

Out from my window "How far is Ohio?"
She laughed and pointed out east
She said, "I grew up there with my dear mother
And I haven't seen her since thirteen.

You see, I was taken while she lay sleeping
By my father's hired man
We moved to city so far from my family
I haven't been back there since.
It's been a long time, a real long time."
A real long time

Out from my window please hear me Ohio
Your daughter wants to come home
She longs to be with you to hug you to kiss you
To never leave her alone

And I've gotten know her to live with to love her
It's hard to see her leave
She belongs to her mother and the state of Ohio
I wish she belonged to me

See you sometime, see you sometime
See you sometime

Tragedy lyrics - Damien Jurado

Girl, the life you're leading
With the lying and the cheating is hard
You got yourself a boyfriend
Treats you like a lady and friend

No one sees the tragedy except for me

Girl, the life you're leading
With the drinking and the cheating ain't good
You had yourself a boyfriend and
Used him like the others you did

Trust me, you're in deep
It's no good

Trust me, you're in deep
It's no good

Trust me, you're in deep
Trust me, you're in deep
It's no good

Curbside lyrics - Damien Jurado

I would come out just see you
Dancing freely by the sunset
Like the sun you'd shine brightly

We'd spend hours by the curbside
Telling stories under streetlights
How your words would amaze me

Now those days are gone
Slowly they slipped away
Now those days are gone
Slowly

I still go out by the old house
Where I met you our first summer
Where are you now, you're with another

I am sitting by the curbside
Where we'd hang out under streetlights
How those times still are with me

Now those days are gone
Slowly they slip away
Now those days are gone
Slowly

Now those days are gone
Slowly they slip away
Now those days are gone
Slowly

Honey Baby lyrics - Damien Jurado

I spend the last night in your bedroom, sleeping
Your head was laid upon my pillow, dreaming
Is this the first time, baby
Is this the last time, well maybe
Is this the first time, baby
Is this the last time, well maybe

I spent the last night in your room
Kickin' these wishes to the moon
To the moon

I spend the last night in your bedroom, sleeping
Your head was laid upon my shoulder, dreaming
Is this the first time, baby
Is this the last time, well maybe
Is this the first time, baby
Is this the last time, well maybe

I spent the last night in your room
Kickin' these wishes to the moon
I spent the last night in your room
Kickin' these wishes to the moon
To the moon

Is this the first time, baby
Is this the last time, well maybe
Is this the first time, baby
Is this the last time, maybe

Eyes For Windows lyrics - Damien Jurado

I used to be the someone you would run to
My eyes, they were the windows you would look through
Now much to your surprise looking through these eyes
You found beauty

I used to be the someone you would talk to
My eyes, they were the windows you would look through
Now much to your surprise looking through these eyes
You saw beauty

Now much to your surprise looking through these eyes
You found me

Letters & Drawings lyrics - Damien Jurado

Goodbye angel
Hands in your pockets
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe you'll come back sometime

She boards a Greyhound
With a ticket to Jersey
A gray colored backpack
Full of all her belongings

A kiss from the window
Tells me she loves me
And how she's sending
Letters and drawings
But the letters never came

So I waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring

Goodbye angel
Hands in your pockets
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe you'll call me sometime

Small towns to cities
She one day calls me
Tells me that she's married
I took it badly

Moments of silence
Sounds of her laughing
"When are you sending
Letters and drawings?"
But the letters never came

So I waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring

Goodbye angel
Hear you're successful
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe you'll come back sometime

Hands in your pockets
Here's where you left me
Only with memories
When we were just 16

But the letters never came
So I waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring
Waited by the phone
To hear it ring

Love The Same lyrics - Damien Jurado

You don't love me that way
The words that you say
Make it obvious now
Why try pretending you care
When feelings aren't there
Just be honest with me

It's not getting easier
With the two of us just standing here
Knowing we don't love the same
Love the same, love the same

I said, "Don't feel ashamed
Feelings just change
It's so clear to me now.
Don't cry you can't deny
Both of us tried for each other."

It's not getting easier
With the two of us just standing here
Knowing we don't love the same
Love the same, love the same

You don't love me that way
The words that you say
Make it obvious now

Saturday lyrics - Damien Jurado

Saturday
Blue eyes fading
Not a word, not one
You will say
"It all has changed me"
Now you've gone
Nothing left to see

Saturday
Sad eyes closing
Not a tear, not one
You will say,
"Love can't change me"
And you were wrong
To think it could

Tornado lyrics - Damien Jurado

She spends her time with other boys
He spends his time fixing cars
She doesn't mind that he's gone
It gives her more time to talk
He'll come around when he's bored
And she'll pay him no mind

"We must stop meeting like this,"
He said with a grin while walking in
And she just slammed the door in his face
"We must stop meeting like this,"
He said with a grin while walking in
And she just slammed the door in his face

I'll see you around
I'll see you around sometime
I'll see you around
I'll see you around sometime

She hangs her coat on the door
He hangs his head on her hopes
She sleeps alone with her thoughts
She dreams of good times
He'll come around when he's old
She'll pay him no mind

"We must stop meeting like this,
Coming to bed with no words said
Makes it tougher on both of us."
"We must stop meeting like this,
Coming to bed with no words said
Makes it tougher on both of us."

I'll see you around
I'll see you around sometime
I'll see you around
I'll see you around sometime

It used to be much better than this
It used to be much better than this
It used to be much better than this
It used to be so much better than this
It used to be

Rehearsals For Departure lyrics - Damien Jurado

I'll come down tomorrow morning
And meet you at our new location
In front of City Bookstore
Across the street from the railway station

She tells me how her night was spent
Nursing coffee and cigarettes
You waited til your husband left
To pack your things and off you went

He wouldn't notice that you'd left
Til morning when the drink wore off
He stayed out all night with his friends
Never to return again

In front of City Bookstore
Across the street from the railway station
You show up with your suitcase
Ten dollars and a sad expression

She tells me that it's all over now
She's done her time and now she's out
From the prison that she calls a house
Where she stayed put while he went out

She left him a note taped to the door
Saying, "Babe I won't be back no more
I can't find reasons for me to stay
Married to you and your cheating ways."

Walked her out to the train
Couldn't hide my pain
Or these tears that flow
From my eyes like rain
That September morning, 1959

EP: "Gathered In Song" (1998)

Chevrolet lyrics - Damien Jurado

Heard you got a brand new Chevrolet
You're leaving today
I heard you got all your money saved
You're leaving today
You're leaving today

What shall I tell all your friends
When they ask of you
What shall I tell your mom
When she asks of you

Shall I tell her that you're gone
Gone and left me all alone

Girl it's awfully cold at night
I need you by my side
Girl it's awfully cold at night
I miss you by my side

You're leaving today
You're leaving today

Heard you got a brand new Chevrolet

Simple Hello lyrics - Damien Jurado

A simple hello would've been nice
Instead you walked right by
I do recall we used to be friends
Has it slipped your mind

I used to call you on the telephone
Each and every night
Every time I see you with him
I think, "Why even try?"

I think I've had enough
I think I've lost my mind
I think I've had enough
I think I've lost my mind
This time, this time

We used to be the best of friends
I guess now things have changed
You're far too busy with making out
Do you still know my name

I think I've had enough
And I think I've lost control
I think I've had enough
And I think I've lost control
So it goes, so it goes

I think I've had enough
I think I've lost my mind
I think I've had enough
I think I've lost my mind

Happy Birthday John lyrics - Damien Jurado

Happy birthday, John
Where has your sweetheart gone
She left today with one week's pay
And the boy she calls your son

Let's not wait for your invitation
Pour yourself a drink
And think about what happened

Happy birthday, John
The warning lights were on
But you were far too gone
To notice what went wrong

Let's not wait for your invitation
Pour yourself a drink
And think about what happened

Happy birthday, John
Where has your sweetheart gone
The warning signs were on
Happy birthday, John

Let's not wait for your invitation
Pour yourself a drink
And think about what happened

Let's not wait for your invitation
Pour yourself a drink
And think about what happened

East Virginia lyrics - Damien Jurado

I was born and raised in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
There I met a pretty young maiden
Her name and age I do not know

Her hair it was of a light brown color
Lips they were a ruby red
And on her breast she wore white lilies
Where I long to lay my head

I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun won't ever shine
Than to see you wed another
Girl you know you'd never be mine

I was born and raised in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
There I met a pretty young maiden
Her name and age I do not know

To Those Who Will Burn... lyrics - Damien Jurado

If you were to live
Among the living and the dead
Would you honestly say
You would want no part of this

Fire
Fire

If you were to sleep
Among the living and the dead
Could you honestly say
You would never dream of this

Fire
Fire
Fire
Fire

You will tear down
And I will build up
You will tear down, I will build up
You will tear down
And I will build up
You will tear down, I will build up

As You Wish lyrics - Damien Jurado

If you need me, I'll come running
If you call me, I'll come quickly

But if you need to be alone
You know I'll gladly leave you

Should you want me, I'm yours completely
Should you need me, I'm yours completely

But if you need to be alone
You know I'll gladly leave you

"Waters Ave S" (1997)

Wedding Cake lyrics - Damien Jurado

You told all your friends,
"He's someone I'll regret."
He's out there setting fires to
The demons in his head

Once you called it perfect love
You now call it accident
Do you sit with your photo books
Wondering where it went

It was clearly never meant to be

You told all your friends,
"He's someone I'll forget."
How do you erase a ghost
Who sleeps inside your bed

Throw away your wedding rings
Give away the gown
Say goodbye to the accident
Who only brought you down

It was clearly never meant to be

You told all your friends,
"He's someone I'll regret."
He's out there setting fires to
The demons in his head

Once you called it perfect love
You now call it accident
Do you sit with your photo books
Wondering where he went

It was clearly never meant to be
It was clearly never meant to be

Angel Of May lyrics - Damien Jurado

It's getting hard to pay attention, pay attention to you
Always trying to work it out, work it out, work it out
But a girl you love behind still hangs around
She's always wondering, wondering when you'll come back

The fact is you are not
You will never at all
The fact is you are not

It's getting hard to pay attention, pay attention now
But a girl you love behind still comes around
She's always asking asking, "When will he return?"
I can give her no answer answer

The fact is you are not
You will never at all
The fact is are not
You will never at all

The fact is you are not

At all
At all

Treasures Of Gold lyrics - Damien Jurado

He came from the nearby town
And showed up at your door
Says, "I'm here to take good care of you
And your children four."

He stayed with you all day and night
And took you as his wife
He showered you with gifts of gold
And loved you with his life

I've got treasures of gold

And then one day the soldiers came
And said there was a war
He grabbed his gun and turned to kiss
The family he adored

The woman said her last goodbye
While falling to the floor
She took all his photographs
And hung them on the door

I've got treasures of gold
I've got treasures of gold
I've got treasures of gold
I've got treasures of gold
Treasures of gold
Treasures of gold

Yuma, AZ lyrics - Damien Jurado

Once met a girl in Yuma, Arizona
Whose mother was dyslexic like mine
Grandpa owned a ranch, it's where she learned to dance
I hear she goes out dancing all the time

When it rains, it pours in Yuma, Arizona
When it rains, it pours
And when the sun goes down
You know where she'll be found
Dancing out in the street

She met a boy who worked as a waiter
Down at the local five and dime
She took him to the ranch, it's where he learned to dance
I hear they go out dancing all the time

When it rains, it pours in Yuma, Arizona
When it rains, it pours
And when the sun goes down
You know where they'll be found
Dancing out in the street

When it rains, it pours in Yuma, Arizona
When it rains, it pours
And when the sun goes down
You know where I'll be found
Dancing out in the street

The Joke Is Over lyrics - Damien Jurado

People laugh and pointed at you
They make those jokes and laughing about
Oh, I never did those things

They will make fun of you but not me
They will make fun of you but not me
No I never got it at all

Laughing with you
Laughing with you
Laughing with you
Not at you
Not at you
Not at you

People laugh and pointed at you
They make those jokes and laughing about
Oh, I never did those things

They will make fun of you but not me
They will make fun of you but not me
No I never got the joke

Laughing with you
Laughing with you
Laughing with you
Not at you
Not at you
Not at you

They will make fun of you but not me
They will make fun of you but not me
They will make fun of you but not me
They will make fun of you but not me

Not me
Not me
Not me

Laughing with you
Laughing with you
Laughing with you
Not at you
Not at you
Not at you

Space Age Mom lyrics - Damien Jurado

You believe in flying saucers,
Aliens, and purple monsters
And somehow I think you're the only one
You're saying to me, "I'll never believe this
Just last night I spoke with Elvis
And we went out on a shopping spree."

And you, you're the crazy one
And you, you're just having fun
So you, you're my space age mom

Call your friends at the psychic connection
Tell 'em about the stars' convention
And we can all ride down in your space age car
Tofu hot dogs, meditation,
Reading books by Carl Sagan
No doubt about it, you're one of a kind

And you, you're the crazy one
And you, you're just having fun
So you, you're my space age mom

Circus, Circus, Circus lyrics - Damien Jurado

The clown you noticed stood right by your underside
And took a look at you
Enjoy the circus, take a ride on elephants you'd like
Tonight the ride's on me

He gave you a flower
It squirted water right in your eyes
It made you cry
He says, "I'm sorry."
And takes you for a carousel ride
Tonight the rides are free

Take a ride, the ride's on me
Take a ride, the rides are free
Take a ride, the ride's on me
Take a ride, the rides are free

Hell Or Highwater lyrics - Damien Jurado

Turn off the fountain
Here comes a landslide, down comes a mountain
Mother is crying, "Where are my children?"
They're up in heaven

Did you get to close your eyes
Father setting sun
I think this is the big surprise
We were waiting for

Turn off the fountain
Here comes a landslide, down comes a mountain
Mother is crying, "Where are my children?"
They're all in heaven

Did you get to close your eyes
Father setting sun
I think this is the big surprise
We were waiting for
We were waiting for

Independent lyrics - Damien Jurado

Can I ask a question
Were we meant to be?
Face the wrong direction
Turn around to see
You'll see it's me
And I don't want to play these games
Do you know I know
You know it's not the same

I don't need you anymore
I'm independent there's nothing to say
I don't need you anymore now
I'm independent don't you walk away

Can I ask a question
Were we meant to be?
Face the wrong direction
Don't say you don't need me
I know you do you do
When you call to me
I know you do you do
When you call to me

I don't need you anymore
I'm independent there's nothing to say
I don't need you anymore now
I'm independent there's nothing to say
I'm independent there's nothing to say
I'm independent there's nothing to say
I'm independent don't you walk away
I'm independent don't you walk away

Purple Anteater lyrics - Damien Jurado

Purple anteater waits on the corner
Winging one night, I'm slight
Open eyes just to see he's waiting for the people
That you don't play at all, see them fall

When you think it's easy
Just believe you're deceived
When you think it's easy
Just believe you're deceived

The anteater waits for the bus
He's waiting for his mom
Where's she gone?

So he sits on by the phone
Feeling tired and alone
When will she appear?
It's not clear

When you think it's easy
Just believe you're deceived
When you think it's easy
Just believe you're deceived

The anteater waits for the bus
He's waiting for his mom
Where's she gone?
Where's she gone?

Halo Friendly lyrics - Damien Jurado

I'm standing on the top of the moon, looking down at you
You're tiny, you're ...
I'm standing on the top of the star, wondering where you are
You're driving in your car
I'm standing on the top of the world, looking at a girl
Who doesn't notice me

I'm halo friendly
I'm halo friendly

I'm standing on the top of the world, looking at the girl
Who will someday notice me
I'm standing on the top of a star, you're standing in the yard
You're lonely just like me
I'm standing on the top of the moon, longing to be with you
If only you had wings

I'm halo friendly
I'm halo friendly

I'm halo friendly
I'm halo friendly

Standing at the top of the world

Waters Ave. S. lyrics - Damien Jurado

Autumn falls down these streets we'll walk together
You'll take my hand inside your hand lightly

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

Meet me downtown we'll walk around just you and me
Hey there's my house Waters Avenue South

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone without you

By myself

I Will Still Be Dead lyrics - Damien Jurado

[from "The Walking Dead: Songs Of Survival" soundtrack]

I fell in to the shallow ground
It soon became my grave
Roll my bones like a dice and play
And dig me with your spade

And you will steal the light
And use it for your fire
And I will still be dead
And I will still be dead

Hold my breath I’ll come back for it
There’s dirt still in my lungs
The insects hide while you lure his eyes
Coffins for our cars

And you will steal the light
And use it for your fire
And I will still be dead
And I will still be dead

Wake me up like Lazarus
And call me to your side
Tell me what to say and feel
So I can stay alive

And you will steal the light
And use it for your fire
And I will still be dead
And I will still be dead

Make Up Your Mind lyrics - Damien Jurado

[from "Big Let Down" single] 

 Sat on the couch for hours talking
About the current situation
Today is the day that we part
Today is the day we fall apart

If you want to talk about it
Darling you know where I'll be

Sat on the porch for hours talking
About the current situation
Today is the day that we part
Today is the day we fall apart

If you want to talk about it
Darling you know where I'll be
If you want to talk about it
Honey you know where I'll be

Make up your mind
