At Peace - Dan Gibson's Solitudes

Deep inside the silence Staring out upon the sea The waves are washing over Half forgotten memory Deep within the moment Laughter floats upon the breeze Rising and falling dying down within me And I swear I never knew how it could be And all this time all I had inside was What i couldn't see I swear I never knew How it could be All the waves are washing over All that hurts inside of me Beyond this beautiful horizon Lies a dream for you and i This tranquil scene is still unbroken By the rumors in the sky But there's a storm closing in Voices crying on the wind The serenade is growing colder Breaks my soul that tries to sing And there's so many many thoughts When I try to go to sleep But with you I start to feel A sort of temporary peace There's a drift in and out

There's blood in the streets, it's up to my ankles (she came) Blood in the streets, it's up to my knee (she came) Blood in the streets, the town of Chicago (she came) Blood on the rise, it's following me Think about the break of day She came and then she drove away Sunlight in her hair Blood in the streets turn a river of sadness (she came) Blood in the streets, it's up to my thigh (she came) Yeah, the river runs red down the legs of a city (she came) The women are cryin' and rivers are weepin' (she came) She came in town and then she drove away Sunlight in her hair Indians scattered on dawn's highway bleedin' Ghosts crowd the young child's fragile eggshell mind Blood in the streets in the town of New Haven Blood stains the roofs and the palm trees of Venice Blood in my love in the terrible summer Bloody red sun of Fantastic L.A. Blood screams her brain as they chop off her fingers Blood will be borne in the birth of a nation Blood is the rose of mysterious union There's blood in the streets, it's up to my ankles Blood in the streets, it's up to my knee Blood in the streets, the town of Chicago Blood on the rise, it's following me

He drinks orange juice and vodka In the basement while she's talkin' To someone long distance For hours and hours on end And as he's slowly sippin' He thinks about his children And the heart attacks that youngest daughter's Always given him He ain't smoke no marijuana Since he got on with the railroad And he's been on with the railroad for A long and loathsome while But the day that he retires He'll smoke himself to China He'll leave behind his worries As he races through the skies The days are dark Down in the holler Waitin' for the sun to shine On the back You have been breakin' Tryin' to earn A peace of mind She sells Avon to her buddies And saves a little money On the makeup she's been using To hide away the years And she sits and watches TV Usually every evening That there ain't some kind of ballgame That her daughter has to cheer She sneaks menthols in the mornin' While her family's still a snorin' And as she burns the Eggos She looks back at her life That heart she broke in high school He is singin' on the Opry She wonders what the hell that she was thinkin at the time The days are dark Down in the holler Waitin' for the sun to shine On the back You have been breakin' Tryin' to earn A peace of mind Their youngest daughter Stella She's runnin' with this fella That he can not stand the thought of That he surely does despise He's told her he best never See the two of them together But it's hard to keep an eye on her When you're workin' all the time There are things he needs to tend to And the bills the bank keeps sendin' Lord the zeroes on the end Keep pushing further to the right Like a freight train haulin' sorrow And movin' ever onward Through the tunnel of forever To the never endin' light
