Band Members:*Shaker's Lyric*** In the moment, it's what you came for, All that you want, just walked through the door. Hypnotized by the liquid laughter. She walks by you go stumbling after.Your train of thought was left behind. All that you want begins to rewind. Caught in the middle of the bump and grind. She brings your world to the otherside.In the moment, it what she came for. Just when you make the movement. She walks back out the door. Paralyzed with a glance from her wildeyes. Soon be taking her on the long ride.Your train of thought was left behind, All that you want begins to rewind. Caught in the middle of the bump and grind. She brings your world to the otherside.For the moment, it's what she came for. All that she wants is to fall a little deeper. I use to be satisfied, only for hours. You want to own her when she takes you higher. ************* by Phil Richard*Summer*Getaway****** Mid July, temperature's high. Everybodies making their way from the hole in the sky. Never lied when I said, it was all good times. 2 hour drive and with the windows down you'll be alright. Hottest day of the season. I can't find no better reason. Than to pack my car and drive as far as it takes, when I get to the lake, I'll dive right in, and touch the bottom. I'll come up before I try my luck with death. Floating on the surface still trying to catch my breath. The lake is filling up with familiar faces, couldn't get enough of this shady oasis. The heat is thinning out my concentration. I don't need to think when I'm on vacation. There's no better way to spend. Than a day at the beach until this heat wave ends. Autumn is around the bend. Summer is a moment and it's gone again. Hottest day of the season. I can't find no better reason. Than to pack my car and drive as far as it takes when I get to the lake I'll dive right in. Floating on the surface still trying to catch my breath**************************** by Phil Richard*EDGE*OF*THE*SUN************* The Sun takes all my energy. What was left of the season catches up to me. The beats off track through the dying leaves. Joker put the magic back up his sleave. Reality takes its tole again. You could play the blues with a crimson red. Plenty of time it's a matter of when. but it won't take long for the summers end.It won't take long for the summers end. The Sun takes all my energy. What was left of the season catches up to me. The beats off track through the dying leaves. At least that's what I use to believe. Reminds me of a childhood dream. The details break down as they age. Familiar, but it has no ring. On the tip of my tounge to the back of my brain. Familiar, and enough to see. What was left of the season catches up to me.Summer doesn't seem to last as long as it use to. Been worrying most of my time on the get through.The Sun Takes all my energy. And all the plans that I've made took a different sway. Back on the road with no money to trade. Back to the city where the music was made. Reality paints the scene again. You could play the blues with a crimson red. Plenty of time it's a matter of when.It won't take long for the summers end.Summer doesn't seem to last as long as it use to. Been worrying most of my time on the get through***** by Phil Richard*Mood*Swing*Endings****** Morning was a toneless grey. Too early for expressions on my face. My head must have gone astray. Couldn't see anything outside the shade.The sun coils down in waves. Half awake in a comfortable state. Crawling back to the cave. Waiting for another dark age.Middle of a Saturday. Tangled by disarray. Waiting for the light to drain. The moonlight haze takes the strain away.The morning hasn't left a trace. Silence took a break in the traffic pace. Waiting for the day to drain. You can't escape the days you wan't to waste away. I went downtown to kill the hours. Saw you alone by the city towers. Looking so and I down wait to go after. It took all the courage I could gather.Well I have to admit. cause you know it didn't take long to connect. Hope I'm not coming off too direct. I want to get to know your intellect. Tell me all the things I should correct.You know I'd do just about anything, to be with only you. Making it through the summer fling, and the first time we argue******** by Phil Richard*Smokey*Lounge*** Lounging around for 11 days. Tracing my steps across the milkyway. My body weighs like mercury. Venis claims she knows my face. I want to drift into that steady rhythem. I've got addiction to the perfect woman. There's a place I go through the smokey haze. You can never make it back without losing your way. It's much easier to put it all through the filter. when the world is under pressure. make your way to the center of gravity.Then you'll know the language of your destiny. If you think it gets better you better be making those changes. Are you going with the trends or moving with the shifting phases.Waking up just brings me down. I light a fire and put my head in the cloads. A wake'n bake on the second round. Passing out with the TV on. I'm a drifter stuck in a crowded prisson. When I've got addiction to the perfect woman. There's a place I go through the smokey haze. You can never make it back without losing your way. It's easier to put it all through the filter. When the world is under pressure. make your way to the center of gravity.Then you'll know the language of your destiny. If you think it gets better you better be making those changes. Are you going with the trends or moving with the shifting phases************ by Phil Richard*The*Loner*** One of those nights. Couldn't seem to fill my appetite. The feeling always gets me unsatisfied. Let priorities be untied. It's time to let it all unwind. Well I've got nothing better to do. Have the money but I have no clue. Have a car, a full tank of fuel. I don't need to make another excuse.Now I've got to figure how. and where to let it all out. Found my way across town. Tangled in a bar crowd. Whiskey, vodka straight down. Pour it into my mouth. Acting like a drunk clown. Turn the music up loud.One of those nights nobody every wanted to fight. We're all out here to have a good time. Everything is turning out alright. Couldn't be anymore untied. Well I've got nothing better to do. Always good to try a little something new. It's always good to try another point of view. The only thing I have is money to lose.Now that I've figure how. and where to let it all out. Found my way across town. Tangled in a bar crowd. Whiskey, vodka straight down. Pour it into my mouth. Acting like a drunk clown. Turn the music up loud******************** by Phil Richard*Bottom*Line*** You use to be someones whole world. It took a few words to end it all. You're stuck on him when he's moving on. I can tell it wasn't easy to let it go. You carry this around and let it show. Happens so much you don't care anymore. The equation was there, but you had your own. stuborn in your ways and you need control. Without it you feel unstable. Little would you know this breaks and disables. Quick to give up when you've had enough. You were the one who made it rough.There's a bottom line, There's a reason why this would never work. There's another side, but you only think what you prefer.Lately you've been keeping this all concealed. Moving around and it's easy to rebound. The pattern is there and it soon reveals. In the end the truth settles on the surface, and it shows exactly how you feel. You need someone to mix it up until it's gone, and just when you think you're healed. Your stuborn little ways make you lose control. Without it you feel unstable. Little would you know this breaks and disables. Quick to give up when you've had enough, but you were the one who made it rough.There's a bottom line, There's a reason why this would never work. There's another side, but you only think what you prefer***** by Phil Richard
