IN THE SUMMER HEAT

Every once in a while We’re listening to ‘em talk all night Waiting for some kind of sign I don’t care, I don’t wanna go Little citrus glow On the horizon blue They’re all so lush and green But I don’t wanna go It moved me to the point of tears First time I’ve cried in years It was music to my ears In the city with all those open windows Little citrus glow On the horizon blue They’re all so lush and green But I don’t wanna go Look at the rolling clouds By the low moon They’re gonna kill us all

Out in the orchard behind the barn, there is a footpath as wide as arms. We’ll wait for sundown, and for the Red Cow to fall asleep now and to disarm. Hey friendly neighbor out on your porch. I’ll be your gunman I’ll be your torch. Are you deserving of all you see? Are you willing to hire me? Hanging from a tree there’s an apple for you and me. For When They Come Around To Collect Them We’ll be long gone with rotten cores inside our palms. For When They Come Around To Collect Them

jasmine curls around the ladder wrung smoke inhaled by the young one’s lung we’re eating ice cream we’re having fun when the loudspeaker crackles the loudspeaker hums with another… of the kind, yeah digital blues again losing all self interest with the digital blues again so come outside i’ll be waiting there with the tea, your cup, and your long brown hair be playing games we’ll be having fun when the car speaker crackles the car speaker hums with another… moody song from a happy band just a moody song from a happy band we’ll be playing games we’ll be having fun hear another moody song when people take pictures… without the sun, yeah digital blues again losing all self interest with the digital blues again lets go back to the way it was

we fell down on the weekend like puzzle pieces fall together in time i’ve been out here believing the world in my head is a lie turn the corners for forever sunshine strawberries for the win i’ve been out here believing the world in my head ‘cuz indeed i am a... Slow Burn hold my hand when you see me push my head through the TV turn me off when you’ve seen enough wake me up in the morning breakfast hold me with coffee or tea i’ve been out here believing the world in my head ‘cuz indeed i am a… Slow Burn Waiting for the Wheel to Turn

‘Gordon Biehl liked to laugh a lot’, read the note on the mirror. Then he went and got himself caught, in a routine traffic stop. Kind of like another planet, something out of this world. No stranger to the lonely terrain, still stuck in the steel. Woke up to an arrow in my front door. Gordon never calls me anymore. Neighborhood kids climbing up the ladder, “just to see what they could!” said the old man down at the bar, staying longer than he should. Paperboy trapped in the shed. Pipebomb sitting on his nightstand. Gordon never thought he’d get caught. A friend once said, “The world’s a crooked place on Howard Avenue.” Then he said, “Alright boys, that’s it, I’m out. This one here is on the house!” Then he grabbed his keys, and he walked out. Started up the engine on a cold winter night. You know, where the red lights turn to stops in the night. He said, “I swore I saw Mr. Gordon Biehl drive-by, collar down with a smile.”
