Turn it around you found that they were all wrong
All you had heard, the ghosts of the words in a song
Nothing new have when all that you want is gone
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
You can't go back now as the door has been closed
Standing outside just passing time 'til we die
There's nowhere to live and all that's been living is gone
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
Turn it around you found that they were all wrong
All you had heard were ghosts of the words in a song
Nothing you had and all that you want is gone
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
I will never know, I will never know, I will never know
Life Away From The Garden lyrics - Damien Jurado
There was a time
(There was a time)
When we were golden
(When we were golden)
Like the Sun
(Like the Sun)
We were lights in the world
(We were lights in the world)
Then we strayed
(Then we strayed)
Away from the Garden
(Away from the Garden)
Oh, Oh
(Oh, Oh)
Oh, Oh
(Oh, Oh)
There was a time
(There was a time)
When I believed you
(When I believed you)
When in doubt
(When in doubt)
I put my hand in your side
(I put my hand in your side)
Broken bells
(Broken bells)
I don't hear you ringing
(I don't hear you ringing)
Oh, oh
(Oh, oh)
Oh, oh
(Oh, oh)
All of us light, all of us free
All of us light, all of us free
All of us light, all of us free
All of us light, all of us free
(There was a time)
When we were golden
(When we were golden)
Like the Sun
(Like the Sun)
We were lights in the world
(We were lights in the world)
Then we strayed
(Then we strayed)
Away from the Garden
(Away from the Garden)
Oh, Oh
(Oh, Oh)
Oh, Oh
(Oh, Oh)
There was a time
(There was a time)
When I believed you
(When I believed you)
When in doubt
(When in doubt)
I put my hand in your side
(I put my hand in your side)
Broken bells
(Broken bells)
I don't hear you ringing
(I don't hear you ringing)
Oh, oh
(Oh, oh)
Oh, oh
(Oh, oh)
All of us light, all of us free
All of us light, all of us free
All of us light, all of us free
All of us light, all of us free
Maraqopa lyrics - Damien Jurado
It's your oldest fear, that the love you can hear will go
It's a deafening sound, we become light on the ground, then soil
To be one with the sky, where the souls all collide, turn to gold
We are rain, we are rain
We are stones to be seen, in the meadows we are dreams to be free
It's where we bow our heads to pray, we are echoes God creates in the shade
It's where the light can come in, your breath becomes the wind in the trees
We are free, we are free
All are welcome in
All are welcome in
All are welcome in
All are welcome in
It's a deafening sound, we become light on the ground, then soil
To be one with the sky, where the souls all collide, turn to gold
We are rain, we are rain
We are stones to be seen, in the meadows we are dreams to be free
It's where we bow our heads to pray, we are echoes God creates in the shade
It's where the light can come in, your breath becomes the wind in the trees
We are free, we are free
All are welcome in
All are welcome in
All are welcome in
All are welcome in
This Time Next Year lyrics - Damien Jurado
I heard you call my name
You were outside the door
How did I not hear you before
A chance to be reborn
To never be alone
I should have done this long ago
To finally wear a golden crown
To be in light, transcending sound
To be lifted from the ground
You're coming through now loud and clear
My God, you went for many years
It's good to have you here
I heard you call my name
You were outside the door
How did I not hear you before
I heard that there would come a day
When you show up just like they said
Do you always show up so unannounced
The stars and light, they moved aside
From where I stood, you shined so bright
Take me back with you this time
To finally wear a golden crown
To be in light, transcending sound
To be lifted from the ground
The stars and light, they moved aside
From where I stood, you shined so bright
Take me back with you this time
Take me back with you this time
Take me back with you this time
Take me back with you this time
You were outside the door
How did I not hear you before
A chance to be reborn
To never be alone
I should have done this long ago
To finally wear a golden crown
To be in light, transcending sound
To be lifted from the ground
You're coming through now loud and clear
My God, you went for many years
It's good to have you here
I heard you call my name
You were outside the door
How did I not hear you before
I heard that there would come a day
When you show up just like they said
Do you always show up so unannounced
The stars and light, they moved aside
From where I stood, you shined so bright
Take me back with you this time
To finally wear a golden crown
To be in light, transcending sound
To be lifted from the ground
The stars and light, they moved aside
From where I stood, you shined so bright
Take me back with you this time
Take me back with you this time
Take me back with you this time
Take me back with you this time
Reel To Reel lyrics - Damien Jurado
You're a smooth talker
With eyes like lightning
And the radio [?]
I sing like our mother
Put away the hairbrush and maybe [?] something you don't know
I read it in the tabloids the trust [?] the thunderstorm
You're an escape artist
And the bathroom mirror
And the autograph seekers
You've imagined outside the door
Yes we love a statement, is it true you're not [?] in your room
From the light out in the basement we knew that there'd be trouble coming soon
Intuition
Mathematics
Invisible audience
Ten hit records
Listen through your tin can as the road cuts circulation to your tune
I fashion myself after you from my suicide electric puzzle
The greatest songs I'll never hear from a band you started in your mind
Leave us hanging on your legend as you exit through the tape recorder
Reel to reel
Reel to reel
Reel to reel
With eyes like lightning
And the radio [?]
I sing like our mother
Put away the hairbrush and maybe [?] something you don't know
I read it in the tabloids the trust [?] the thunderstorm
You're an escape artist
And the bathroom mirror
And the autograph seekers
You've imagined outside the door
Yes we love a statement, is it true you're not [?] in your room
From the light out in the basement we knew that there'd be trouble coming soon
Intuition
Mathematics
Invisible audience
Ten hit records
Listen through your tin can as the road cuts circulation to your tune
I fashion myself after you from my suicide electric puzzle
The greatest songs I'll never hear from a band you started in your mind
Leave us hanging on your legend as you exit through the tape recorder
Reel to reel
Reel to reel
Reel to reel
Working Titles lyrics - Damien Jurado
You could mess up my life in a poem
Have me divorced by the time of the chorus
There's no need to change any sentence
When you always decide where I go next
Many nights you would hide from the audience
When they were not in tune with your progress
In the end you're a fool like the journalist
Who turns what you sing into business
You could use to be more like a hero
A darker shade of damage distortion
Wearing death like a cape or a costume
Cut your ties and leave town when you want to
Killing time 'til I pass through the chamber
Or the room you keep my replacement
so fed up, still you're starving on paper
You're no him, but he's you, only better
Leave me an exit to damage
I could use a ledge to jump off of
I wasn't lying when I said this was over
I have questions that lead to more questions
Running time that will cut off my fingers
You wrote about me on every new record
And I'll show up in a title of your song
I only hope somebody requests it
What's it like for you in Washington
I've only seen photos of Washington
I'll never know
Leave me Manhattan, I want the evergreens
Write me a song I can sing in my sleep
As sure as the rain that will fall where you stand
I want you and the skyline, these are my demands
What's it like for you in Washington
I've only seen photos of Washington
I'll never know, know
Have me divorced by the time of the chorus
There's no need to change any sentence
When you always decide where I go next
Many nights you would hide from the audience
When they were not in tune with your progress
In the end you're a fool like the journalist
Who turns what you sing into business
You could use to be more like a hero
A darker shade of damage distortion
Wearing death like a cape or a costume
Cut your ties and leave town when you want to
Killing time 'til I pass through the chamber
Or the room you keep my replacement
so fed up, still you're starving on paper
You're no him, but he's you, only better
Leave me an exit to damage
I could use a ledge to jump off of
I wasn't lying when I said this was over
I have questions that lead to more questions
Running time that will cut off my fingers
You wrote about me on every new record
And I'll show up in a title of your song
I only hope somebody requests it
What's it like for you in Washington
I've only seen photos of Washington
I'll never know
Leave me Manhattan, I want the evergreens
Write me a song I can sing in my sleep
As sure as the rain that will fall where you stand
I want you and the skyline, these are my demands
What's it like for you in Washington
I've only seen photos of Washington
I'll never know, know
Everyone A Star lyrics - Damien Jurado
Burned out, I found you like a light on
Time to forget all that I've done
I'm too in tune to change the dial
Connected colors for the mood
I'm on rewind all the time
A welcome sign outside my mind
Ready when you are to lose
Asleep for days inside the blue
Everyone a star, everyone a star
Everyone a star, everyone a star
In time I found you like a light on
I won't forget all that you've done
Ready when you are to lose
Asleep for weeks inside the blue
Free is all we are, free is all we are
Free is all we are, free is all we are
Everyone a star, everyone a star
Everyone a star, everyone a star
Time to forget all that I've done
I'm too in tune to change the dial
Connected colors for the mood
I'm on rewind all the time
A welcome sign outside my mind
Ready when you are to lose
Asleep for days inside the blue
Everyone a star, everyone a star
Everyone a star, everyone a star
In time I found you like a light on
I won't forget all that you've done
Ready when you are to lose
Asleep for weeks inside the blue
Free is all we are, free is all we are
Free is all we are, free is all we are
Everyone a star, everyone a star
Everyone a star, everyone a star
So On, Nevada lyrics - Damien Jurado
I don't recall ever a time when you felt fine
Leaving the room saying you would come back and I believed you
Don't hide your smile, don't be set in your ways, hey hey hey
And I'll bide my time with you by my side in Colorado
The birds will fly south so you take their advice and Leave also
Don't call my bluff, don't guess what I do, ooh, ooh, ooh
Well, it's not that I mind you just hanging around
I know that you mean well, but it's dragging me down
Oh, it's dragging me down
And I could map ties and I'll finally decide on a new home
I'll phone your from somewhere, sometime, so on, Nevada
Don't call my friends, they don't answer the phone, no, no, no
Well, it's not that I mind you just hanging around
I know that you mean well, but it's dragging me down
Woah, it's dragging me down
Leaving the room saying you would come back and I believed you
Don't hide your smile, don't be set in your ways, hey hey hey
And I'll bide my time with you by my side in Colorado
The birds will fly south so you take their advice and Leave also
Don't call my bluff, don't guess what I do, ooh, ooh, ooh
Well, it's not that I mind you just hanging around
I know that you mean well, but it's dragging me down
Oh, it's dragging me down
And I could map ties and I'll finally decide on a new home
I'll phone your from somewhere, sometime, so on, Nevada
Don't call my friends, they don't answer the phone, no, no, no
Well, it's not that I mind you just hanging around
I know that you mean well, but it's dragging me down
Woah, it's dragging me down
Museum Of Flight lyrics - Damien Jurado
Falling to the ground
I was anxious to be found
You can always go home
To the safety of your cloud
Don't let go
I need you to hang around
I am so broke
And foolishly in love
I turned around to love revealing
What did I learn, it's not that easy
When you get burned and go on burning light
Falling into sound
Is a less defeating path
One day we will go home
To the safety of our clouds
Don't let go
I need you to hang around
I'm so broke
And foolishly in love
I turned around, my life was changing
What did I learn, it's not that easy
When you get burned and go on burning light
Don't let go
I need you to hang around
I'm so broke
And foolishly in love
I turned around, my life was changing
What did I learn, it's not that easy
When you get burned and go on burning light
I was anxious to be found
You can always go home
To the safety of your cloud
Don't let go
I need you to hang around
I am so broke
And foolishly in love
I turned around to love revealing
What did I learn, it's not that easy
When you get burned and go on burning light
Falling into sound
Is a less defeating path
One day we will go home
To the safety of our clouds
Don't let go
I need you to hang around
I'm so broke
And foolishly in love
I turned around, my life was changing
What did I learn, it's not that easy
When you get burned and go on burning light
Don't let go
I need you to hang around
I'm so broke
And foolishly in love
I turned around, my life was changing
What did I learn, it's not that easy
When you get burned and go on burning light
Mountains Still Asleep lyrics - Damien Jurado
I stood above the clouds
To see you on the ground
Waving me down
Feel free to lose yourself
I do this all the time
Love is a blinding sun
We are songs to be sung
Treasures of worry here
Your voice was so sincere
I’ve known you my whole life
You told me once before
I should have known it then
Joy is letting it go
We are all mountains still asleep
I heard an echo say
We are all given away
Never to come back
And when we cross the line
We become defined
Broken sound, feeding back
To see you on the ground
Waving me down
Feel free to lose yourself
I do this all the time
Love is a blinding sun
We are songs to be sung
Treasures of worry here
Your voice was so sincere
I’ve known you my whole life
You told me once before
I should have known it then
Joy is letting it go
We are all mountains still asleep
I heard an echo say
We are all given away
Never to come back
And when we cross the line
We become defined
Broken sound, feeding back
Cloudy Shoes lyrics - Damien Jurado
I wish that I could float
Float up from the ground
I will never know
What that's like
You have a way about you
I wish that I had
Thought it was impossible
To live and love like you
Funny how we all can change
If we just try to
Thought it was impossible
To live and love like you
One day you will be taller
Taller than the sky
Until that day you will be
Here with us below
Magic will do what magic does
Living in your eyes
Do you think someday soon
You will have the time?
I could use another hand
To help pull me through
Someday theses hospital stays
Get the best of me
Trying to fix my mind
Still trying to fix my mind
Trying to work it out
I'm still trying to fix my mind
Still trying to fix my mind
I'm still trying to fix my mind
Float up from the ground
I will never know
What that's like
You have a way about you
I wish that I had
Thought it was impossible
To live and love like you
Funny how we all can change
If we just try to
Thought it was impossible
To live and love like you
One day you will be taller
Taller than the sky
Until that day you will be
Here with us below
Magic will do what magic does
Living in your eyes
Do you think someday soon
You will have the time?
I could use another hand
To help pull me through
Someday theses hospital stays
Get the best of me
Trying to fix my mind
Still trying to fix my mind
Trying to work it out
I'm still trying to fix my mind
Still trying to fix my mind
I'm still trying to fix my mind
Arkansas lyrics - Damien Jurado
I don't recall the last time we spoke
You said it's my fault, I still don't believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
We both know this was a mistake
I'd love to come home but I need an escape
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Fade out
This is where the credits roll our name
Taller than trees and brighter than starlight
I never feel magic unless I'm with you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Tell me you mean it when you tell me you loved me
I wanna believe you, I wanna believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Fade out
This is where the credits roll our name
I don't recall the last time we spoke
You said it's my fault, I still don't believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Tell me you mean it when you tell me you loved me
I wanna believe you, I wanna believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Fade out
This is where the credits roll our name
You said it's my fault, I still don't believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
We both know this was a mistake
I'd love to come home but I need an escape
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Fade out
This is where the credits roll our name
Taller than trees and brighter than starlight
I never feel magic unless I'm with you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Tell me you mean it when you tell me you loved me
I wanna believe you, I wanna believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Fade out
This is where the credits roll our name
I don't recall the last time we spoke
You said it's my fault, I still don't believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Tell me you mean it when you tell me you loved me
I wanna believe you, I wanna believe you
Oh oh oh oh Arkansas
Fade out
This is where the credits roll our name
Rachel & Cali lyrics - Damien Jurado
Rachel would it be alright if I stayed here in the car
There's too many people out there I don't know
It's not that I'm too shy or cannot be polite
I just don't feel confident in crowds
Cali you can do what you'd like I'll probably be here awhile
I leave you my car keys in case you want to leave
Welcome to stay at my house my parents will both be out
There's a blanket in the closet if you decide to sleep over
Rachel I am sorry to call, I can't sleep at all
The closet is unfamiliar my parents are soon to be home
Cali there's no way you'll be caught my closet door has a lock
I'll keep my window open so you can get in
Sometimes I wish you knew how I keep living for you
A friend is only a love you're not committed to
There's too many people out there I don't know
It's not that I'm too shy or cannot be polite
I just don't feel confident in crowds
Cali you can do what you'd like I'll probably be here awhile
I leave you my car keys in case you want to leave
Welcome to stay at my house my parents will both be out
There's a blanket in the closet if you decide to sleep over
Rachel I am sorry to call, I can't sleep at all
The closet is unfamiliar my parents are soon to be home
Cali there's no way you'll be caught my closet door has a lock
I'll keep my window open so you can get in
Sometimes I wish you knew how I keep living for you
A friend is only a love you're not committed to
Throwing Your Voice lyrics - Damien Jurado
I've got news for you, we all know
Stop acting like you've never heard this before
Blood on your hands, leaving your mark
It's when you cross the line where the trouble starts
Michael, you had a voice, learned to lie
Was the day that I fell apart that we almost died
I would like to think people change
But I've seen no evidence or the point it made
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
Michael, I've had enough, it's time to go
Make this clear, don't want you here
You can throw your voice all you'd like
I don't want to see him return any time
Shake off your doubt, grab a hold
Sometimes the hardest part is letting you go
You can always come back when you need
And I'll leave the light on, leave the light on
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
Stop acting like you've never heard this before
Blood on your hands, leaving your mark
It's when you cross the line where the trouble starts
Michael, you had a voice, learned to lie
Was the day that I fell apart that we almost died
I would like to think people change
But I've seen no evidence or the point it made
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
Michael, I've had enough, it's time to go
Make this clear, don't want you here
You can throw your voice all you'd like
I don't want to see him return any time
Shake off your doubt, grab a hold
Sometimes the hardest part is letting you go
You can always come back when you need
And I'll leave the light on, leave the light on
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
You can come back when you need
