Hypnotic Eye

[Verse 1]

I’m gon' make my way through this world someday

I don’t care what nobody say

American dream, political scheme

I’m gon' find out for myself someday

But I’m half-lit, I can’t dance for shit

But I see what I want, I go after it

And my girl’s alright, treats me nice

Sayin’ nothin’, but a woman puts out that light

[Chorus]

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right

'Til I get it right

[Verse 2]

Oh well, my baby no doubt dreams further out

Makin’ moves to get us someway someday

Well, my honey don’t trip, shoots from the hip

Tell me everything gon' be OK

[Chorus]

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right

'Til I get it right

[Bridge]

Well, my mama's so sad, daddy’s just mad

‘Cause I ain't gon' have the chance he had

My success is anybody’s guess

But like a fool, I’m bettin’ on happiness

[Chorus]

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right

Got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it

I got a dream, I’m gonna fight 'til I get it right

'Til I get it right

4 ContributorsFault Lines LyricsSee those fault lines

Lay down like land mines

It's hard to relax

A promise broken

The ground breaks open

Love falls through the cracks

And I've got a few of my own

I've got a few of my own fault lines

Running under my life

Running under my life

I'm alone here

I play the odds, dear

I go where I please

Down the road

A man I know might not be me

And I've got a few of my own

I've got a few of my own fault lines

Running under my life

Running under my life

On the high-wire, above the wildfire

An old acrobat

On faulty cable, still he’s able

Not to fall flat

And I've got a few of my own

I've got a few of my own fault lines

Running under my life

Running under my life

5 ContributorsRed River LyricsShe’s got a 3D Jesus in a picture frame

Got a child she never named

She shakes a snake above her hair

Talks in tongues when there’s no one there

So meet me tonight by the Red River

Where the water is clear and cold

Meet me tonight by the Red River

And look down into your soul

Look down into your soul

She’s got a rosary and a rabbit’s foot

A black cat bone that keeps her good

A tiger tooth and a gris-gris stick

Still it don’t do the trick

So meet me tonight by the Red River

Where the water is clear and cold

Meet me tonight by the Red River

And look down into your soul

Look down into your soul

I’m gonna walk her down to Gypsytown

Find the spirit queen I’ve seen around

Paint her body up in mud and clay

Let the river wash it all away

So meet me tonight by the Red River

Where the water is clear and cold

Meet me tonight by the Red River

And look down into your soul

Look down into your soul

Look down into your soul

3 ContributorsAll You Can Carry LyricsI saw a ghost by the road tonight

And then my mind ran away with me

I had a vision in the changing light

Something saying that it's time to leave

Take what you can, all you can carry

Take what you can and leave the past behind

Take what you can, all you can carry

Take what you can and leave the past behind

We gotta run

I saw the flames come across the ridge

Falling ashes in the northern wind

You and I have burned every bridge

And now we've got to save our souls again

Take what you can, all you can carry

Take what you can and leave the past behind

Take what you can, all you can carry

Take what you can and leave the past behind

We gotta run

There's something moving in the dark outside

I gotta face it when it hits the light

No one can say I didn't have your side

No one can say I left without a fight

Take what you can, all you can carry

Take what you can and leave the past behind

Take what you can, all you can carry

Take what you can and leave the past behind

We gotta run

5 ContributorsForgotten Man Lyrics“Forgotten Man” is a dichotomy of both lyrical self-loathing and instrumental roof-burning, reflecting the band’s 70’s-era Rock & Roll influence.

Critics suggest that lead guitarist Mike Campbell’s guitar… Read More Well I feel like a forgotten man

I understand the dark

When it hangs upon the water

When the wolves and dogs all bark

Well I feel like a forgotten man

I feel like a forgotten man

Well I feel like a four letter word

I know what few can do

How angry words can pierce the heart

How a soul can sink so low

I feel like a forgotten man yes

I feel like a forgotten man

Well I feel like I'm forever damned

Since our love is gone

No lust, no rage, no wicked thoughts

Just pain, that lingers on

I feel like a forgotten man

I feel like a forgotten man yes

I feel like a forgotten man

2 ContributorsSins Of My Youth LyricsYou will find no wicked way in me

Look me over, you will see

You will find no weary change

I'm worn and wounded, but still the same

Oh, let me tell you the truth

I love you more, than the sins of my youth

When the past gets up in your face

Memories slide out of place

All those things that were hidden away

Ain't so bad in the light of day

Oh, let me tell you the truth

I love you more, than the sins of my youth

You say you love me, wish you liked me more

I'm no angel, that's for sure

Said you forgave me each time I was caught

But you still paint me as something I'm not

Oh, let me tell you the truth

I love you more, than the sins of my youth

I love you more, than the sins of my youth

4 ContributorsU Get Me High LyricsI remember feeling like this

I think it was as a child

Inspiration at my fingertips

Imagination running wild

Ohhh ohhh, you get me high

You get me high

You give me something so deep

You get me high

I remember feeling this way

You can lose it without knowing

You wake up and you don't know which way

The wind is blowing

Ohhh ohhh, you get me high

You get me high

You give me something so deep

You get me high

I ain't afraid of what people say

Ain't afraid of the great deception

Every bad dream comes my way

Turned to smoke on closer inspection

Ohhh ohhh, you get me high

You get me high

You give me something so deep

You get me high

You get me high

You get me high

You give me something so deep

You get me high
