Lyrics:
a thousand trees
Until we start to live out our dreams
Caught in the undertow trying to stay on key
But momentum's got the best of me
I gave you have my heart
undertow
But I'll keep on fighting, never giving up the fight
In the darkness of the night, I'll find my guiding light
Memories haunt me, ghosts of what
One, two, three, four
There are cobwebs on the ceiling fan
And the lonely forty watt flickers when the train goes by
Take out boxes near
Gone under two times.
I've been struck dumb by a voice that
Speaks from deep
Beneath the cold black water.
It's twice as clear as heaven,
held down
no control
consumed by
what i don’t know
caught in the undertow
i want to know you know
stay closely by my side
i’m cold on summer nights
the clouds I'll dissolve
In the sleepy undertow
Somewhere beyond it all
These two wings brought by the dream
The light of day and nothing will stand in my way
names
The water moves so slow
Till we're caught by the undertow
Down the river
Down the river
We're floating down the river and let go
I recall those

Well the girl turned ripe and the pickers came
SHADE TREE FIX-IT MAN
(Merle Haggard)
« © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Yeah I'm a shade tree fix-it man I don't need any helping hand
I'm
allow
Taken by the wind
Lost in the undertow
Somehow you know
Somehow you know
You move to a different city
I move to a different room
You move
There you are
I'm drawn by the undertow
When I've got nowhere else to go
How can somebody feel so low when they're surrounded by stars?
Everybody needs
Virgil Caine is the name
And I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came
And tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65, we
the joyride that you took us on and rocky roads we landed on
Whiplashed by the demons that you fought
Fighting with the baggage that is pulling down on me
cognition
Of being divided by the choice that you made
Fight the battles in my head
To make sure you can‘t escape
All alone and caught in the undertow
When
across the snow
Too cold and too tired to desert this undertow
Hollow, false hope
Forced march through this frozen hell, plagued by profound sadness
Each
for your fun
Can you spare this one?
I'm taken by an undertow
I'm covered in your spell from head to toe
He's paying out the dividends
But
Death comes for us now
The soft crushing blow
At the worlds end
Drawn by the undertow
Men, women, civilians
Born of radiation
Blood runs in street
the undertow
And cut to ribbons by what lies below
thought it was easy to let me go
But now you're drowning in the undertow
You're sinking so deep that you can't see
You fucked yourself by fucking me
I am
Old ways that we don't show, we sent our ashes to the frontlines
Fell on the rocks below, far from the fast-receding sunshine
Trapped by an undertow
to the heart of this town
This town has its own sweet charms
Open your heart and it'll open its arms
Take you by the hand and show you around
There's still
the devil you know
Reaching out to heaven
Is the devil you know
We are
Crushed by the hand of God
We are
Lost in the undertow
We are
Crushed by the hand
From the Class of '65 got me planning, planning
Standing in a room full of faces (in a room), I knew them all
But I could not place the names with
Sunday mornin', man, she woke up fightin' mad
Bitchin' and moanin' on and on 'bout the time I had
And by Tuesday, you could say that girl was good
