PAINWAVES LYRICS

  • If one was yellow

    The other was beige

    I would still pick the whole field everyday 

    I would not ask one question 

    Of how this place gets filled 

    And i would not want to much 

    Just one doghouse on your hill 

    I'm gonna need someone to help me 

    I'm gonna need someone to help me 

    to help me hop over, Heaven's Gate 

    I’ve studies your movements 

    I gave you my soul 

    Tied your chain to my harness 

    In hopes of having somewhere else to go 

    We never did too much talking 

    Never saw eye to eye 

    As your personal puppet 

    you only left me asking why, why, why

    I can see you're dancing 

    Spilling drinks on parade 

    Through the cracks i am staring 

    I sigh and pace the clouds away 


    Ive counted every flower on the mountain 

    What good did that do

    Retraced my steps and i held my breath 

    It did lead me back to you

    Counted every flower on the mountain 

    Cursed the man i turned into 

    Spent all day down memories lane 

    it did not lead me back to you

    I'm gonna need someone to help me 

    I'm gonna need someone to help me 

    To help me hop over, Heaven's Gate

    In a while we’ll see x7

  • I went down to the river to find my love

    She was washed and with a kick

    Off into the mud

    Tossing with the tide

    I hung my head down praying to the sky

    I buried my seed down in that woman so deep

    I wonder which way and whats to come of me

    Oh we’ll see

    The skies look mournful

    The skies look grey

    Miles gonna take my pain away

    Watching T.V

    All night drive

    Lean my head out

    Oh thats nice

    Life’s too short and who gives a damn woah

    Cause when your’e gone you loose all you have

    Hangin’ round town with you on my mind

    Does me no good all the time

    Drunk, out of cologne

    Hope to hell it gets you home

    My love, my love

    It’s too late now

    Wade wade, washed in the tide

    You turn your little head

    Waving goodbye

    Oh god woo

  • Last time here 

    Sitting in my tree

    Bad thoughts disappear 

    And i drifted off to sleep 

    Watching the water 

    Rise above my head 

    Oh when the valleys low bellow 

    and cold and know ones left 

    Time takes all 

    No sense to deny 

    When she calls 

    I wont run and hide 

    In 20 years who knows where we’ll be 

    Dreaming or dead

    We’ll see 

    Young 

    Younger than today 

    Once was so sincere 

    Well that quickly blew away 

    watching the mountains crumble 

    and fall into the sea 

    oh when there's no peaceful place left 

    You know where you’ll find me 

    Time takes all 

    No sense to deny 

    When she calls 

    I won't run and Hide 

    In 20 years who knows where we’ll be 

    Dreaming or dead

    We’ll see 

    Last time here 

    Sitting in my tree 

    Bad Thoughts disappear 

    And i drifted off to sleep 

    Oh the moss looks like 

    your hair hangin’ from that tree 

    one limb away 

    and red wine on your teeth 

    Time takes all 

    No sense to deny 

    When she calls 

    I won't run and hide 

    In 20 years who knows where we’ll be 

    Dreaming or dead 

    We’ll see
