Sarah Slean Album

A little blood and vomit on the car seat
And the tooth is sitting in my lap
Brother if you’re hungry but not wounded
Then it’s time to stop and check the map

Pilgrim
Where’s your head at?
Are you paying the birds to sing?
Well it won’t work
On the true path
Where the wretched are growing wings

If the ancient wisdom came in bottles
I would tell my terror where to go
But I don’t know who would do the dishes
'Cause I’d be lying wasted in the road

Pilgrim
Where’s your head at?
Are you paying the birds to sing?
Meet me
LyricsOn the true path
I’ll be dizzy from growing wings

My tears
My tears
My kicking up the love dirt
I fear
It’s the only way

Pilgrim
Whatcha lookin' at me for?
My disaster has come and gone
It left me
By the roadside
With my shadow
And one more song

Science wears a new suit
To his coffee, toast and eggs
But he has to skip the stairs now
'Cause of two broken legs
Whine, whine, "I cannot climb"
Every time’s the same
I’d be more inclined to help him
If he could remember my name

And you're sad, And you're sorry.
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance
Be ready.
I’m taking my seat
O Lucky Me

Faith can’t fill the dance hall
'Cause her powers have declined
But at the beauty pageant
She will always take the prize.
LyricsLight, light. Easter White
Roll her in the dirt,
When it comes time for kneeling she’ll say " You go first."

And you're sad, And you're sorry.
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance
Be ready.
I’m taking my seat
O Lucky Me

A wise man once tried to tell me
How to sugar-coat the grave
But the game is for the adults
And I don’t know how to play
O where will I go?
Toss me out to sea
When the jar’s all out of candy
don’t come blaming me.

And you're sad, And you're sorry.
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
Tell the whole world!
We're waiting.
I’m taking my seat
O Lucky Me

She’s looking up and out to
A galaxy
A fateful boat trip 'cross a northern sea
And on a frosty window
She writes her name
O daughter, this is how she became

Mary
Go ahead and have your little baby
Mary
Toughest of the tough but still a lady

I’ve all the courage
I’ll ever need
I wax poetic on my enemies
The century is raging
But so are we
No matter what I know I ’ve got a
Symphony called

Mary
LyricsGo ahead and have your little baby
Mary
Toughest of the tough but still a lady

Out of dark days, stay up airplane
Take my last name, stay up airplane

Go ahead and have your little baby
Mary
Toughest of the tough but still a lady
Mary
Toughest of the tough

I went to California
I met a lovely man
He rubs a wedding finger
Without a wedding band

He knows better anyhow
His kisses are just all in his eyes
I know better
I know better still I wish I was
By your side

The taxi open window
The summer on the wind
I'd ask about a lover
But how would I begin?

He knows better anyhow
His kisses are just all in his eyes
I know better
I know better, still I wish I was
By your side

I put my head back
Where it belongs up there in the clouds
I’m spreading love like
a terrorist now

O what a morning
O what a day to be alive
Sweet hope is glowing
in your glorious eyes

Pushing paper ain't enough
I bet you think that you’re so tough
But all your green won’t mean a thing at all

On day one
Day ONE

After Boy Wonder
After the dream came out of the mines
Bus boys and bankers
Were wiping their eyes
Lyrics
Be still my lionheart!
A revolution ready to pounce
All passioneers
Up and out of the house!

Beauty faked a heart attack,
Now I feel it coming back
And all your green won't mean a thing at all!

On Day one

Don’t you know what time it is?
It’s the new time
All disciples gathering by the boats
But your revolution is chasing its tail,
You love to take the wind out of my sail
But not this time

In between commercial breaks
It’s a new war.
Men with books have run away to the coast
All the ladies quit calling them back
And starting plotting a counter attack
You foolish animals!

She’s out in the park conducting the birds
Trying to remember which bicycle’s hers,
Filling her pockets with handfuls of dirt
It’s amazing
Out in the park

For sale, forgetfulness,
LyricsAt a new price
I saw it advertised on T.V.
But all the children were busy outside,
Building sandcastles skyscraper-high
You foolish animals!

She’s out in the park, conducting the birds
Trying to remember which bicycle’s hers,
Filling her pockets with handfuls of dirt
It’s amazing
Out in the park

By way of the dark...
The summer sun will be ours...

Out in the park, fight the war!
What are your hearts and your
wheelbarrows for?
Lean on me man, I don’t keep score!

Out in the park conducting the birds
Covering France with the trail of her skirt!
Singing a sermon to beautiful earth...
Out in the park

The heavens dropped a bag of red and white lights
Pearls that keep the highway bright
And it feels like being born, night driving
The moon hangs a dangerous height

Terrible calm, Terrible cold
This dream I have, it's gold
Easier now, a place to go
Vertigo

The faces drop like flies their memory fades
Into the rushing road below
I can take this night any night
Just try to tell me no

Terrible calm, terrible joy
This dream I have, it's gold
Easier now, a place to go
Vertigo

I am full of love and consequence
Merciful the sky of coal
The beauty of the cars, electric light
The speed with which their destinies glow

When another midnight comes to rest
On the cheek of our sleeplessness
All the crusaders will wake and dress
Pull their flags from their pillowcases

You could hear all of Eden hold its breath
On this the anniversary of wonder’s death
Unholy occasion what a terrible mess
Oh it's time for a new dress

How to live a noble life
In this the age of insanity
When every prophet's face is turning white
It’s the look, the look of
"Can it be?"

It’s shock, it’s horror, it’s despair!
It’s Socrates weeping in a wheelchair
Teacher drooling, unaware
"Where are my students where, oh where?"

LyricsPoet to poet, nun to nun
I’ve met a distance that I have to run
No matter what madness must come undone
I’m throwing down a smoking gun

All the commuters will hear our words
And hide in garages like frightened birds but
You can’t stop the moaning of the Earth
And the midnight crackling of my nerves!

Come out, come out! Angels of love
It's just the sound of another midnight falling
Come out come out
It's not the end of the world
It's just the sound of another midnight falling
Come out come out! The time is now!

Oh I
Rented a motorbike
And all night
I had the Fear...
But onward,
Oh how the terrifying choice
was clear

So white!
The moon was a wicked sight
His cruel wife
Had cut off an ear
When the fog cleared
I heard the voices of a million cheer

This time
The pleasure's all mine
I've got your number
I know the score
I'd be a hopeless romantic
But for the fortune I made
Lyricsin gold

My heart bent
Towards the circus tent
A man in red
Beckoned me near
In his wild eyes
I saw the faces of a million cheer

He said,
"This time,
The pleasure's all mine
I've got your number
I know the score
And you and
your hopeless romantics
Will wipe the highway I pave
in gold..."

In his wild eyes,
Oh how the terrifying choice
was clear

This time...
oh the pleasure is all mine
I've got your number
I know the score
And I'd be
a hopeless romantic...
but for the fortune I made
The fortune I made
The fortune I made
in gold.

In my mind-storm I did carry you
Through the briars of disbelief
Through the woods of lethargy
Through a groaning dark so deep
I thought I died

In the fountain I did cool our feet
Under red and rainless skies
Singing ragged lullabies
Through the grief all advertised
In neon lights

Baby your wish is my wish
And I have only this
From now on

Baby your wish is my wish
Keep on running to the door

I hear Beauty crying in her sleep
So I bent for one more kiss
LyricsAnd her tears will turn and twist
We make bliss to end all bliss
And all time

Baby your wish is my wish
And I have only this
From now on

Baby - your wish is my wish
Keep on running to the dawn
Running to the door...
Keep on running to the dawn

I hear Beauty crying in her sleep

Wake up
Wake up
You don’t want to sleep through this
Night has fallen and all the stars are coming out
O the sky’s a lullaby
Like
That sweet little light of mine

Come out come out
It’s not like we’re strangers here
No more lying here waiting, the sun’s coming up
O that hole made of gold is
Like
That sweet little light of mine

Old record playing on my own radio
And I know it's time to go
Get up and out of this black hole

I gotta get it right
I gotta quit these drugs
I gotta get inside
Somebody's arms
Tonight

Can't remember who I was before
Tonight
Oh my heart is halfway out the door
Tonight

Sweet city come on give me a handful of stars
I'm ready for the midnight show

I'm gonna light a fire
On the street I love
I'm gonna get inside
LyricsSomebody's arms
Tonight

Can't remember who I was before
Tonight
My heart is halfway out the door
Tonight

I gotta get it right
I'm gonna quit these drugs
I'm gonna get inside
Somebody's arms
Tonight

Can't remember who I was before
Tonight
Oh my heart is halfway out
My heart is halfway out the door

Tonight

Can't remember who I was before
