Wasted

Stepped on one too many cracks Did I break your back?
I don’t wanna tell the truth anymore
Tired of pinning down the facts
So, you can paint them black
And I’m feeling kinda cruel keeping score
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhh
Changed my name and my address
Can’t get further west
Still there’s something tugging at my sleeve
Doing better than my best
To outrun this mess
But some days you just gotta scream
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhh
Well I don’t wanna be a fool for you honey
But right now you got me wasted
I don’t wanna be a fool for you honey
But right now you got me wasted
Writing letters writing hits
But nothing fits
You got one foot hanging out the door
So, roll the credits call it quits
We’re on the fritz
I can’t keep waking up on the floor
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhh
Well I don’t wanna be a fool for you honey
But right now you got me wasted
I don’t wanna be a fool for you honey
But right now you got me wasted
(Ahhhhhh)
Right now you got me wasted
(Ahhhhhh)
Right now you got me wasted

Red Flag

Twenty something girl with a teenage crush
Wanna keep it cool but I talked too much
Driving to your place but I just can’t seem to take it slow
Trying to play it down but I’m all dressed up
Trying to tell myself that I’m not in love
Looking in the mirror got a hundred way to say hello
Weak knees, hard to breath, something’s coming over me
Front door butterflies, never even saw the sign
Red Flag, I should have seen it coming
One kiss led to another
But I’m, still young and too wild to try to make it stop now
So what? Undid another button
Tried hard, hard to keep it cool, but fuck it
I’m still young and too wild to try to make it stop now
When it feels like
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Baby don’t believe me when I say goodbye
I just want you to ask me if I’ll stay the night
My eyes are keeping secrets but my heart don’t lie, oh no
Love is just two accidental crossing lines
You and me baby right place and time
Quarter past two and the blue moonlight still glows
Weak knees, hard to breath, something’s coming over me
Front door butterflies, never even saw the sign
Red Flag, I should have seen it coming
One kiss led to another
But I’m, still young and too wild to try to make it stop now
So what? Undid another button
Tried hard, hard to keep it cool, but fuck it
I’m still young and too wild to try to make it stop now
When it feels like
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Don’t even know where this is going
Whoa, whoa
All I wanna do is chase this feeling
Candle light, record on, letting go, lose control
Front door butterflies
Never even saw the sign
Red Flag, I should have seen it coming
One kiss led to another
But I’m, still young and too wild to try to make it stop now
So what? Undid another button
Tried hard, hard to keep it cool, but fuck it
I’m still young and too wild to try to make it stop now
When it feels like
Woah, woah, woah, woah

Skin and Bones

Okay, I’ll admit I’ve never been the best at this
But let me get it off my chest
Your love and gratitude it comes with strings attached to you
And I’m swinging from the nest
Cause I want it all till I feel the fall
Am I nothing more than skin and bones?
Oh, I want it all till I feel the fall
Am I nothing more than skin and bones?
Let’s play a little game, let’s review all our mistakes
We never made it through the race
Nothing to do with you, a thousand versions of the truth
And nothing left to say
Cause we want it all till we feel the fall
Are we nothing more than skin and bones?
Oh, we want it all till we feel the fall
Are we nothing more than skin and bones?
When your crown is tumbling down and you can’t see straight
I would pick you up and put you back in the game
With fire, fire in the sky and ashes in my face
Would you dust me off and put me back in the race?
Cause we want it all till we feel the fall
Are we nothing more than skin and bones?
We want it all till we feel the fall
Are we nothing more than skin and bones? (fire, fire in the sky)
Don’t we want it all till we feel the fall?
Are we nothing more than skin and bones? (fire, fire in the sky)
(Want it all) Don’t we want it all till we feel the fall?
Are we nothing more than skin and bones? (nothing more than skin and bones)

Dust

Take my hand you’re my brother
We were born in the same way
You live on one side and I’m on the other
But we’ll all be dust someday
Won’t we all be dust someday?
Hallelujah, I’m finally free
Hallelujah, logic lifted me up from my knees
I believe in what I can see
Hallelujah
Honey, how to you fill your cup?
With paper? With love?
Do you know when you’ve had enough?
Honey, how do you fill you cup?
Hallelujah, I’m finally free
Hallelujah, logic lifted me up from my knees
I believe in what I can see
Hallelujah
(Ahh ahh ahh) Mm
(Ahh ahh ahh)

Something Sweet
03:50

I took a walk to the end of the dock
Honey, I don’t keep secrets no more
I threw out my box, the one covered in locks
Now they’re all washing up on the shore
I believed, something sweet
Had come for me
I sunk my teeth, in make-believe
He said come with me
One little song, and then I’ll be gone
I’ll flutter and flit on my way
Here comes the dawn, so I’m moving on
Off like a runaway train
I believed something sweet
Had come for me
I sunk my teeth, in make-believe
He said come with me, come with me
(Come with me)
I look at the world and I notice it’s turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Well I believe something sweet
Will wait for me
There has to be, more than make-believe
And plasticine
I look at the world and I notice it’s turning

Muskegon

I was a question, you were the one
With all of the answers when I thought there were none
Cold did the wind blow, when you went away
I felt you shiver when I begged you to stay
Bury my head in the green grass
Capture the memory of your love
Muskegon, we had it all
Muskegon, we had it all
Gone was the winter and the ice on the lake
I called out to you, but you weren’t awake
Wherever you’re dreaming, you’re holding your tongue
Ever so patient ever so young
Muskegon, we had it all
Muskegon, we had it all
(We had it all)

Beautiful and Strange
03:56

Ask me who I’m gonna be in seventeen years
And I’ll tell you a sweet little story
And it might be what you want to hear
But it’s just pretend
Tell me who you want to see when you look in the mirror
And it might be something to fear
But I won’t cry myself to sleep
Cause it’s just pretend
Oh, we say all kinds of things to all kinds of people
Pretending that we have the reins
But it’s all just one big leap of faith
To be living, breathing, dreaming
Oh, we say all kinds of things to all kinds of people
Pretending that we could rearrange
This breathtaking pattern of atoms that’s beautiful and strange
Don’t wake me I’m dreaming
Trouble coming up in space
And nothing you say
Will make it okay
He said it’s mercury in retrograde
The space parade
Oh, we say all kinds of things to all kinds of people
Pretending that we have the reins
But it’s all just one big leap of faith
To be living, breathing, dreaming
Oh, we say all kinds of things to all kinds of people
Pretending that we could rearrange
This breathtaking pattern of atoms that’s beautiful and strange
Don’t wake me I’m dreaming
Oh, we say all kinds of things to all kinds of people
Pretending that we have the reins
But it’s all just one big leap of faith
To be living, breathing, dreaming
Oh, we say all kinds of things to all kinds of people
Pretending that we could rearrange
This breathtaking pattern of atoms that’s beautiful and strange
(sha la, sha la, sha la)
That’s beautiful and strange
Don’t’ wake me I’m dreaming

Cornerstone
03:45

I’m just another story of heartache gone wrong
Cuz love came and chased the sad songs away
It’s such a funny feeling this twist in the plot
Light pouring in through every slot
Should I take this slow?
They say great oaks from little acorns grow
And now I know
My broken home, all it needed was a cornerstone
I don’t need cynics or mystics to tell me what’s real
Your beating heart is all that I feel
And life can be stranger than fiction with the spin of a wheel
Now everything’s ours to borrow or steal
Should I take this slow?
They say great oaks from little acorns grow
But now I know
That my broken home oh, all it needed was a cornerstone
All it needed was a cornerstone
All it needed was a cornerstone

High Speed Chase
03:47
|

|
Crippled society
Don’t believe what you read
Are we just another high-speed chase?
They always end the same
But we’ll keep running anyway
Jet planes and kerosene
Tear through my whiskey dreams
I’ll have another cigarette
Remember how to breath
And sing myself to sleep
I’m not a prophet trying to preach about love
But everything changes when you’re under the gun
I feel the sky coming down from above
But I’d rather fight than turn around and run
Plastic and junk tv
Remake reality
Panic in the neon streets
When the ground beneath your feet
Is slipping out from underneath
Jet planes and kerosene, don’t believe what you read
Are we just another high-speed chase?
Or just running in place
Waiting for someone else to change
I’m not a prophet trying to preach about love
But everything changes when you’re under the gun
I feel the sky coming down from above
But I’d rather fight than turn around and run
Just turn around and run
Oooh ooh
Turn around and run
Just another high-speed chase
Or just floating in space

The Best is yet to Come

The best is yet to come my love
Over the mountains white
We’ve hardly just begun my love
Counting the stars in the sky
Dreams do come true
When I found you by my side
I knew, I’d follow you
Into the wild
The best is yet to come my love
Over the oceans blue
We’ve hardly just begun my love
We’re sweeter than morning dew
Ooooeeee, my honey bee
So loyal and kind
I’ll be, your daisy
For all time
Dreams do come true
When I found you by my side
I knew, I’d follow you
Into the wild
The best is yet to come my love
Over the mountains white
We’ve hardly just begun my love
Counting the stars in the sky

Well I tried to make it Sunday, but I got so damn depressed
That I set my sights on Monday and I got myself undressed
I ain't ready for the altar but I do agree there's times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine
Well, I keep on thinkin' 'bout you, Sister Golden Hair surprise
And I just can't live without you; can't you see it in my eyes?
I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind
Will you meet me in the middle, will you meet me in the air?
Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care?
Well I tried to fake it, I don't mind sayin', I just can't make it
Well, I keep on thinkin' 'bout you, Sister Golden Hair surprise
And I just can't live without you; can't you see it in my eyes?
Now I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind

Well I tried to fake it, I don't mind sayin', I just can't make it
Doo wop doo wop ...

I haven't been this enthralled with an album in literally years. Jade's recorded a genuine masterwork of American music, with stellar songwriting, her rich, gorgeous voice, and a band that plays so damn tight and alive. Get this album, people. You won't regret it.

The whole album is awesome. But I gravitated first toward "Portland". Then "Wildwood Flower" because I'm familiar the 10,000 Maniacs cover. Very different; AVK's is very contemplative.
