AIN'T INFINITY LYRICS Hold on close to the ones you love Give a toast to the ones above There ain't no time for everyone So drink a beer and have some fun We drank the whiskey till it ran dry Said our prayers to the trinity We may have laughed one million times But that ain't infinity You know when judgement day awaits Shake off all those dire straits You must be true, face your fears Can't undo all those wasted years We drank the whiskey till it ran dry Said our prayers to the trinity We may have laughed one million times But that ain't infinity Yeah, that ain't infinity That ain't infinity That ain't infinity

WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN SILVER LYRICS Cross the bridge ahead Half penny is your debt You pick one up Remove the curse Don't stop until you're dead In Dublin ye shall see Lucky ye shall be Two Pence the price But now you're right Drink whiskey till you're free Did you live your life Fight to make it shine Around you only gold When the story's told If you sell your soul Is it worth its weight in silver The grass is never green The sights are all unseen You close your eyes Awake this time To nothing but a dream Did you live your life Fight to make it shine Around you only gold When the story's told If you sell your soul Is it worth its weight in silver Is it worth its weight in silver Is it worth its weight in silver Is it worth its weight in silver

THORSON & EVERMORE LYRICS There was a queen who stood her ground She lived in the sea and all around Sometimes she hurt for the life at bay For Thorson & Evermore were on their way The sea was aflame, the sky dimmed low She awaited the days of ice and snow Occasional pirates braved the sea While Thorson, Evermore retired their fleet It's the end of the year and atmosphere We float through glacial sweat and tears Her kingdom now fed to the populous That Thorson, Evermore served to us

Slippin’ down the sidewalk, saw a father and son Daddy had a guitar for the little one Thinking of the songs they could play When they reach the house at the end of the day When they reach the house at the end of the day Hit the end of my road, saw a mother and daughters A bicycle and stroller it was down by the water Mama tellin’ her stories, teachin’ her lessons When they reach the house at the end of the day When they reach the house at the end of the day Nothin’s ever missin’ as I look back and smile When I reach the house at the end of the day Nothin’s ever missin’ it’s an honest life lesson When I reach the house at the end of the day Back to this space, I can finish a letter Scribble black ink hope you feel better Will reach you real soon across the Atlantic When you reach the house at the end of the day When you reach the house at the end of the day

KISS ME ONCE Kiss me once I'm a fool, yeah Kiss me twice, I'd be foolish not to find you out Make you mine, make you love me Take your hand, you are lovely tonight Captive hearts were singing Songs in different keys Hold them close together They beat in harmony, yeah, hear them sing Kiss me thrice, I will love you Four times, I'll forever be yours Come on dance with me lady Step with me, take my hand, and here we go Captive hearts were singing Songs in different keys Hold them close together They beat in harmony, yeah, hear them sing Kiss me once I'm a fool, yeah Kiss me twice, I'd be foolish not to find you out Make you mine, make you love me Take your hand, you are lovely tonight Captive hearts were singing Songs in different keys Hold them close together They beat in harmony, yeah, hear them sing

THE TELLER'S TALE LYRICS Well let me tell you a story Of one that passed, on a lover’s day The other sat there a waitin’ Four days at the steps of the Maker’s gate They claimed their love in the wildwood Moved out west and settled in Made a livin’, raised their family Four kids, one dog, and a silhouette den Well Pa, he told his tall tales Tyin’ flies ‘n cigs in his liquor store Each tale it had it’s meaning Each tune, diff’rent than before As time drew near We all knew too clear As the teller’s tales grew thin That voice turned faint And the flame swept away To be carried by the next of kin, the next of kin Now listen to this story Of one that passed on a lover’s day The other sat there a waitin’ Four days at the steps of the Maker’s gate They had lived on love, not money These two folk in that small town Together they left early Headed North, they’re Heaven bound

STORIES (SOCIAL MEDIA BLUES) You only ever bring me down Bout that time we turn around Let's leave this space walk solid ground look to the sun and close our eyes You only ever bring me down We’re out of touch we do not feel A rolling stone a broken wheel Let’s move along to something real Beyond the cloud and to the sky We’re out of touch we do not feel Do we make the change from selling stories We don’t understand It’s time we break away From this electric circumstance We’ll finally live our days, disconnected Then we make our stand It’s just a social phase See what we do, see what we can Next time I see you come around I’m gonna burn this whole place down Get on up, get out of town Tell this story inside out Next time I see you come around Do we make the change from selling stories We don’t understand It’s time we break away From this electric circumstance We’ll finally live our days, disconnected Then we make our stand It’s just a social phase See what we do, see what we can You only ever bring me down Bout that time we turn around Let's leave this space walk solid ground look to the sun and close our eyes You only ever bring me down Do we make the change from selling stories We don’t understand It’s time we break away From this electric circumstance We’ll finally live our days, disconnected Then we make our stand It’s just a social phase See what we do, see what we can

MATERIAL LOVE/LOVE IN THEORY LYRICS My material love, in theory It has wings above and below And we fly away And we catch the waves In relative speed I go, I go, I go My material love, in theory Sits on both sides of the glass And it sees you And it sees itself With a dual recollection You go, You go, You go Is it light in the love that shines Is it light in the love that fades away My theoretical love, is real You can touch, revel, and feel We won't fade away Despite sun and rain Through magnificent lenses We go, we go, we go Is it light in the love that shines Is it light in the love that fades away Is it light in the love that stays Is it light in the love that dies
