HEARTBROKE 03:48
HEARTBROKE Lyrics & Music by Waylon K. Smith ©2019 Waylon K. Smith CH: My heart broke but it wasn’t your fault & I’ve never felt so small As I walked away I could see myself through your eyes I watched myself diminish on your horizon In a shower of sparks We burned brightly but fell dark Chandelier shards Gorgeous & glorious as stars We were formless Awkward & aimless Somethings never change Our cigarettes & our silhouettes Were exactly the same CH: My heart broke but it wasn’t your fault & I’ve never felt so small As I walked away I could see myself through your eyes I watched myself diminish on your horizon Stereo flame Wild filaments flickering Arcing between A nightmare & a daydream We lived our lives counterclockwise Aching for something to write We blinked out like so many streetlights At the end of the night CH: My heart broke but it wasn’t your fault & I’ve never felt so small As I walked away I could see myself through your eyes I watched myself diminish on your horizon

SOLITUDE SONG Lyrics & Music by Waylon K. Smith ©2019 Waylon K. Smith The whimper of wet wood & bones on a bonfire It’s the music of mourning A tune for a funeral pyre Ashes & embers Ghosts of smoke Endless, nameless, crosses From desert to coast Desert to coast CH1: Barely awake, night blind on the interstate Solitude song, baptized by the dawn BRIDGE (instrumental) & Mother Superior Like grains of sand Let the starlit exterior Slip through her hands It sifted through her hands CH3: Barely awake, night blind on the interstate Solitude song, solitude song, solitude song Baptized by the dawn

LONELY EYES FOR YOU Lyrics & Music by Waylon K. Smith ©2019 Waylon K. Smith We fell in love on a fault line & caught the blame for these strange times You fell to pieces while I fell apart It was an awkward way to start We took to the stage & we faked it We saw the audience was naked I stole the scene & you stole the show There was nowhere left to go CH: I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you We stole a car & started driving You said the city lights were blinding You turned the wheel & I turned the radio dial Open road for miles & miles & miles CH: I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you A couple of long, bitter, winters We named our babies after singers You’re still beautiful & I can still make you laugh Let’s keep turning tomorrow into the past CH: I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you I’ve got lonely eyes for you

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION Lyrics & Music by Waylon K. Smith ©2019 Waylon K. Smith I’ve got blurry, blood-shot eyes & it’s always morning You’re curled up & turning & purring & yawning You said “Darling, please don’t go. Don’t ever leave me alone.” & I’m afraid I have to remind you I’ll lay down on the path worn behind you & the tracks that you left will be crescent moons Not from sandles, or boots, but from freshly shod hooves La la la… You said “Darling, please don’t go. Don’t ever leave me alone.” You said “Darling, please don’t go. Don’t ever leave me alone.” & I’m afraid if I say I’m in love with you Then I’ll burst into flames right in front of you & if you feel anything similar to me Then we can sing each other to sleep La la la…

SIGN OF LIFE 05:02
SIGN OF LIFE Lyrics & Music by Waylon K. Smith ©2019 Waylon K. Smith I made you in the image Of someone dear to me To have someone near me A face from memory & I crossed myself & whispered your name aloud (You were silent as a shroud) & begged you to breathe CH: Give me a sign of life Give me a sign of life Give me a sign of life Show me the sparks behind your eyes BRIDGE (instrumental) You could be here with me You could be a galaxy Of infinity We could be family CH: Give me a sign of life Give me a sign of life Give me a sign of life Show me the sparks behind your eyes
