lyrics

You can find me high on a mountain
Lonesome as it gets
you can find me down by the river
Wash away my regrets

If I die with my eyes open
I might finally be awake

You can find me heavy loaded momma
spare me another day
you can find me down in the holler
screamin' my blues away

If I die with my eyes open
I might finally be awake

draw the curtain
put out the light
but don't you lower my dyin eyes

Money want's money
Every day
Penny's from heaven
Never Came my way
I'm the poor boy
Lives over the hill
Don't think I might
As much as I will

If I die with my eyes open
I might finally be awake

Steeped in influences from Robert Johnson to Radiohead. Their sound is distilled in a boiler of mercurial energy that swirls with tempo changes and dynamic peaks and valleys, holding the ear and refusing to let go. ... more
