One of Us

Speak No Smoke	this town with their tongues will wet you down heavy and thump the dust from your wings
Honeysuckle Wine	i can still get drunk on honeysuckle wine but the ditch won't take me back
Live Forever	hold tight to the tire swing keep your fingers crossed and a marble in your mouth and live forever
Fairytale	fairytales are for children and children grow into men men change into corpses and the earth swallows them in
Glitter	when the sandman shakes his dust she closes her eyes opens her thighs and gives in to her lust
You Won't Come	there's a young girl in a corner bar drinking to keep herself warm for a soft bed and sweet word she'll let you take her home
Make It Shine	ma, i know there's something at the end of this road something secret and strange my father couldn't hold i'm gonna find it, and make it mine
Freaks	come to see your dad, son i've got some new games to play look at all i brought you put your old toys away
When the Ravens Took Flight	it was just after dusk when we left from our house and drove out over the tracks i tried to contain my tears and my prayers as daddy drove toward his fix
Wish I Was There	another wife faces the floor again and i wish i was there another fist enters her mouth and i wish i was there
Jack	jack says i'm losing faith in home mom and apple pie jack says i'm losing faith in peace and love so all of you die
Chameleon	hang your coat above the hearth or roll your sleeve down over your heart sometimes i need to be someone else could you be me
Back Then	back then you were alive and no one knew back then you were alone and no one cared
From the Ditch	she wears the same disguise clean and pressed sensible sunday best ready with a handshake and a smile yes ma'am thank you sir she blends in well and no one knows her secret face but me
