Compassion for the Thief
04:07
|

I'm a criminal who can't be free
I put things in my pocket when you don't see
Away away away they go
For 2 cents on the dollar they soon will be sold
One day I'll be a frail/old woman
Still learning my right from wrong
A confused frail/old woman
Hiding from fire in the trees
To be free it's understood
Resist temptation when times are good

Loving and Dreaming

Baby I know lately Iʼve been out of control
I just want to fight with you to hear your voice echo through my mind Thatʼs where I find Iʼm not alone
But I want to make you wonder what might have been and what could be
Kickin nʼ beatin, lovin nʼ dreamin, kissing and shoutin
When the walls come down I may be miles and miles away
Iʼm sorry you built them so high, out of the memories she wears upon her face I know sheʼll never be replaced
But I want to make you wonder what might have been and what could be
Kickin nʼ beatin, lovinin nʼ dreaming, kissing and shoutin
Kickin nʼ beatin, lovinin nʼ dreaming, kissing and shoutin

Clowns

Do you remember the 9th of September, do you remember the time
Do you remember the leaves were yellow, do you remember I cried
Do the remember the night was calling, do you remember I bowed
Do you remember the sky as itʼs falling, do you remember your proud
Do you remember the makeup we were wearing, do you remember my face Do you remember my back as itʼs turning, all white covered in lace
Clowns they do sing a familiar song, paint it all on with white
Lost in the distance your mouth is still smiling, cover it all up with the night
Clowns they do sing a familiar song, paint it all on with white
Lost in the distance your mouth is still smiling, cover it all up with the night
Do you remember the 9th of September, do you remember the time
Do you remember the leaves were yellow, do you remember I died

County Line
04:18
|

I walk this old county line
Lookin for something I lost along the way
I canʼt find you, I canʼt find you
Took a train to the East
Set my eyes to feast upon you
When I got to your town, all I found was your essence on the ground
oh oh Claudio x4
Like a trail of breadcrumbs I follow you down x2
Took an airplane to the south
Knew youʼd be in a different house
Couldnʼt bring myself to see, scared what would become of me
oh oh Claudio x4
Like a trail of breadcrumbs I follow you down x2
I walk this old county line
Lookin for something I lost along the way
I canʼt find you

Tie Me Up

Tie me up, hold me down
Left me forever hungry babe
For your sweet sound
I need your lovin what am I to do
But love you only, your lovin fool
It took time, I waited so long
My love to sing, to sing you this song
But who am I foolin, this ainʼt nothin new
Iʼve been singing my life away
Just singing for you
When I cry out to you in the night
From so far away, love please hear my plight
Tie me up, hold me down

Left me forever hungry babe
For your sweet sound
I need your lovin what am I to do
But love you only, your lovin fool

Storyteller

Say its your birthday you aristocrat
Say its a number and your punishing the fact
That you'll be
Say its a life and call it at that
Say your career manipulate the fact that your free Twenty
I can be the storyteller
You can be the story
Tell you tails of dragon slaying
Kings romancing glory
Power is a dangerous thing
Facilitate the things that it brings
Say that its there but it can't be seen
A reference to the bible
Just another hopeful dream I scream
How easy it all seems
I can be the storyteller
You can be the story
Tell you tails of dragon slaying Kings romancing glory
Power is a dangerous thing
Facilitate the things that it brings
For glory is just a toy in eyes in babys' when their young
Who choose their lies and prophesies using a different tongue
So brush your teeth and comb your hair for all our work is done
Power is a dangerous thing
And all the beautiful things that it brings
I can be the storyteller
You can be the story
Tell you tails of dragon slaying
Kings romancing glory
Power is a dangerous thing
Facilitate the things that it brings

Trigger

Iʼve got my finger on the trigger but somehow youʼre still alive x2
Well my feet were bruised and hollow when I ran into morning today
And my hands were heavy in sorrow for Iʼd given my Daniel away
Gave him away x3
Iʼve got my finger on the trigger but somehow your still alive x2
Shady lane, my memory
By the lilly pond waters a woman waits for me she waits for me x3
Iʼve got my finger on the trigger but somehow youʼre still alive x2

Blue Sheets
03:49
|

Iʼve got a hole in my foot
I can walk fine
I can walk but a crooked line
Youʼve got a hole in your knee
From which you bleed
All your catastrophes
Nʼ all I see is blue
All I see in blue sheets
Iʼve got a lamp in my stomach which helps me see
All my philosophies
Youʼve got a bulliet in you hand that you caught
For the war wasnʼt good enough
Nʼ all I see is blue
all I see in blue sheets x2

Daymares
03:07
|

I wake up to be sure I can sleep again
I sleep to be sure I can dream
I dream so I can be yours one night at a time
Your voice is just a message machine
When the sun hits the floor
I donʼt wake anymore
When the sun hits my eyes I will rise
Itʼs the part of the day that I truly despise
Cause I was dreaming of my sweetie pies eyes
So I listen to you mechanically
Your voice is just a message machine X2
I wake up to be sure I can sleep again
I sleep to be sure I can dream

Sailboat Land

You needed reason to leave, you needed reason to go back
Is it not reason enough, is it not reason enough
This wont be epic, cause Iʼm not epic yet I exist without you
I see the leaves turn, I feel the wind blowing
Yet I will not go
To my sailboat, to my sailboat land X2
Iʼll keep a smile on my face, hold my head high and walk with grace
For grace she showed me truth, a snapshot back into my youth
My youth
To my sailboat, to my sailboat land X2
In my youth I saw every lie, and in my lie I saw young men cry
and in their tears I saw a woman standing by, and in her hands there I Iay and in her hands there I lay, in her hands there I lay
In my sailboat, in my sailboat land X2

Ezza Rose Portland, Oregon
“The progression from folk to something more closely resembling rock has been organic and fluid like the rest of her history, but she is not without a significant amount of stubborn drive. This latest change is just another indicator that Rose is, above all, a consummate musician.” - Anchorage Press ... more
