LYRICS

THE FLOATER [3:07]

 

[Verse 1]

You only call me when your tractor is stuck out in the field

You only listen when I beg and plead, well I have to seal the deal

And now Billy’s gone a floatin’ face down in the waters of the Cumberland

And momma she’s found a brand-new 

Gin

To start drinking

 

[Chorus]

Oooh whoah, ahhhww

Home, home

Home, home

 

[Verse 2]

I only wanted to lift a little weight off my chest

Billy looked mighty tired, so I laid him on down to rest

And now I have gone searching from state to state

Looking for a little bit of freedom

And the only comfort I can find

Comes from the bottom of a shiny new magnum

 

[Chorus]

Home, home, whoah

Home, home

 

[Outro]

'Cause I don’t want to live

Well, I don’t want to be left

Alone anymore

Cause I don’t want to live

Well, I don’t want to be left

Alone anymore

So Billy,

I’m coming home

 

 

THE SWIM [4:11]

 

[Intro]

Hmmm, hmmm

Hmmm, hmmm

 

[Verse 1]

You say you got lost in your plastic dream, well ya

You drown in your thoughts

You think there’s a heaven

Well, so your hopes are up

Next time maybe you should just

Dry up

Before you slip

And you fall

 

[Chorus]

You think the world is such a wonderful place

You think Americas a disgrace

You fell on your sword just the other

Day, now

You long for your armor

Today, now

You want to drown out the thoughts again

You never seem to know where you’ve been

You drown out the world again

My friend

I bet you wish that you could swim, now

 

[Verse 2]

You say you’ve got lots of pretty things

And you feel really free

But you broke the levy

Well you’re coming down

You’re going down

You’ve hit the ground

You better watch your

Your step

 

[Bridge]

[Operatic ooohs and aaahhhs]

 

[Chorus]

You think the world is such a wonderful place

You think Americas a disgrace

You fell on your sword just the other

Day, now

You long for your armor

Today, and well

You want to drown out the thoughts again

You never seem to know where you’ve been

You drown out the world again

My friend

I bet you wish that you could swim, now

 

HEAVY HAND [2:25]

 

[Verse 1]

I don’t like to lay down

Or fall down on my knees

I don’t like the shake down

The hey, the you, the freeze

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Pursuit by blue

Don’t even bother

Pursued by you 

Don’t need a caller

 

[Verse 2]

I don’t like the photographs

The caught in headlights stare

I don’t need no floating raft

To take me out of anywhere

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Pursuit by blue

Don’t even bother

Pursued by you

Don’t need a collar

 

[Chorus]

Need a new escape plan

Avoid the heavy, heavy hand

Need a new escape plan

Avoid the heavy, heavy hand

 

[Pre-Chorus] (x2)

Pursuit by blue

Don’t even bother

Pursued by you

Don’t need a caller

 

Pursuit by blue

Don’t even bother

Pursued by you

Don’t need a collar

 

[Chorus/Outro]

Need a new escape plan

Avoid the heavy, heavy hand

Need a new escape plan

Avoid the heavy, heavy hand

Need a new escape plan

Avoid the heavy, heavy hand

Need a new escape plan

Avoid the heavy, heavy hand

ALTAZAR [4:04]

 

[Verse 1]

Having been away so long

I can’t remember

The sound of your voice

Did you never get my letters

They must have gotten 

Lost on their course

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Altazar seems so far

Away from here

These ever-changing stars

Are light years

 

[Verse 2]

Slipping in and out of time

Dimension retention

Is never a choice

The worm’s hole is quivering

And now I have fallen

Out of range and off of course

 

[Chorus]

Altazar seems so far

Away from here

These ever-changing stars

Are light years

Altazar seems so far

Away from here

These ever-changing stars

Are light years

 

[Bridge: guitar solo]

 

[Chorus/Outro]

Altazar seems so far

Away from here

These ever-changing stars

Are light years

Altazar seems so far

Away from here

These ever-changing stars

Are light years

Altazar seems so far

Away from here

These ever-reaching stars

Are light years…

…away
