February ( Dale )
Hold me in February, The short short days of February
Kill me in February , Such a good time
A cold night the starlight. In your eyes the firelight
As we watch our house burn down to the ground

Never Forget ( Dale )
Oh hollow sorrow, your a weight on my chest
I drank all the wine now I'm losing my mind, and my bed is full of regrets
Never forget , I always forget ..... Every goddamn time.
Oh sweet tomorrow, I kneel down to you
I have made up my mind to set down the lies and only seek the truth
Never forget I always forget ... Every fucking time
Oh lost tomorrow, sorrow has swallowed you whole
Stuck in my head I'd be better off dead, everything's out of control
Never forget , I always forget.... Busy signal on the line

Unspoken ( Dale )
Unspoken, you say some things just stay unspoken
That's just how it goes
Broken, It's all so broken... You just carry it around
Wear it like a crown
On the night of your first dance, no one asked , you just sat all alone
Believe me I understand, I was one of them, to scared to approach
Lately you cant run away from the choices made
Everyday looking back
Thinking you weren't good enough to be loved
How did you get this way ?
Unspoken, It's best left unspoken
That's the way it's going o go
Broken, I'm o.k. with broken
If hopes alive then I'll be alright
I'll be alright
Then I'll be alright

Where Beauty Grows ( Dale )
Everything is falling down
In the void there is no sound
At the point where your heart just breaks
All the tears that dying takes
Out on a ledge where it's touch and go
That's where beauty grows
All the leaves that die in fall
All the times she will never call
no one here gets out alive
Far away there's a star that's dying
Everything that's small and never gets to grow
That's where beauty is born
Don't be afraid to let beauty in
Oh watch the water rise
Covering up the miles and miles
All your tears go back into the flood
Blood is water and water is blood
In a place you'd never think to got
That's the place where beauty's born

Blue Blu Serenade
Slippin' into fall the Indian Summer is holding on
I try and keep pace with the looks on your face
It's hard to tell what's going on
Got nothing but time if you ever want to show me
Fingers of fog almost touch the inner shore
But they burn off
Migrant birds passing through born knowing what to do
But me and you were born lost
I reach for your hand, I can't quite understand, but that's o.k.
some say there's proof feelings are just passing through
They don't have to stay
This song is for you it's the deepest of blue blu serenade
From the angels to you ,It's the deepest of blue blue serenade
I'm out on the road wish I was heading home to see you
There's smoke in the air and rain drops we sure could use a few
Your stuck in my mind in the best and worst of times
It's just the truth
I try and keep pace with the looks on your face, your a mystery girl
This song is for you , It's the deepest of blue blu serenade
From the angels to you It's the deepest of blue blu serenade

Portland ( Dale )
There's a clutter in my brain and a clutter on the floor...the ashtrays almost
full, that was 20 years ago
I wonder what she'll think if I sneak a little morning drink and do the last line of her coke
I'm in the northwest and I'm doing my best to turn my life around
I water down my feelings to a pulsing strobe upon the ceiling in a shifty after hours bar
The cause and effect is that my livers getting wrecked but it's the healthiest I've been by far
I miss you Portland. I miss your easy ways. Your cold is cold your warm is warm, I carry you with me everyday
A port in the storm, all your lights stayed on and the people were mostly good
I ran out of reasons after sixteen full seasons and headed back to where I'm from
And I know for a fact "dont let the door hit you in the ass " is your motto
I miss you Portland. I miss your easy ways. Your roses are gold your cherry blossoms explode and the sun never over stays

The Purest Light.. ( Dale )
My fever, it ain't coming down
Can't feel my alone, my favorite lows, I'm sweating it out by the phone
And Maybe, this is all on me.
What I put on you to put in me, around we go, ain't no one living free
In the mornings purest light, I call on you to drop on by
And when t works out right, It all adds up to an early check out time
And ladies, well I've known a few
They can't keep up with me and you, Their tender ways only block the view
In the evening final hour don't wait up I'm drifting out
And if I set back down you'll here from me when the morning comes
My fevers high it ain't coming down.
The purest light can't take me out

Pass It On (Dale )
Perfect timing every time is silver lining overriding these trouble times
The ground is thawing, worms are crawling, birds are chirping flowers spring up everytime
I got to feel a good feeling in my soul don't come very often so hold tight then I let it go go go to find a new home
Pass it on
All the colors and flavors, sights to savor override the bad behavior
of the Hungry Ghost
Fall down pick you up give a hug and never stop
Cause that's how we roll, never give up on a broken soul
Toss out a line ,whatever grabs on feed it with kindness,
Tolerance and guidance
Pass it on

Sweet Suffering ( Dale )
Won't you stay all night my sweet suffering
Hold me tight, hear my shallow breathing
Reap what i sew got my baggage n tow
Put me up for one night, my Sweet Suffering
Why's this beast so fragile
Made from calluses and bones and bloody cables
My wrists are both bound, I keep walking myself down
To drink from the well of suffering
Feel you in my heart all alone in the dark
Pout one out for my Sweet Suffering
I'm a puppet you pull, all these strings are your tools
Where's my moment of peace ? my Sweet Suffering
It's all out on the table
You kick out one leg I become unstable
It's just a shot in the dark , your playing the part
Of my Sweet Sweet Suffering

Decoder Ring ( Dale )
Tires burn on the milky white
soft shoulder ache on long flights
Forty paces up 10 to the right
X and O
Cords are stacked in long rows
Discourse turns then overflows
Lava juts from the maw
The curtain calls
Silence once golden begins to and end
The Boogyman will rise again
Truth the arrow the bow the sin
Animate like Frankenstein
Head so square , grip so tight
Sutures hold but they bind
assimilate, assemble line
Touch is grief but bitters sweet
Race alone can't be beat
There's moisture on the mercy seat
Born to electrify
