lyrics

All my sadnesses are real
I've got snakes for eyes and none of ya'll can deal
I've got a stone inside me too
I get to rolling round and it rolls right over you

So I'm standing in the mirror
Searching for my heart
Trying to get back to your love

But it's hard to get down inside a hole to get back to your love

Because the hole just gets bigger and bigger
And everybody knows what I want man
So if I had a gun
I'd shoot out the eyes of the sun

I've got holes inside my truths
I've done alot of things that none of ya'll would do
There are bad dreams in my head
Why are my promises so easy to forget

When my hands are bleeding money, and I just wanna run
To some blacked out death of the dead and gone
Ain't it fun to climb down into a hole if the lid ain't on

Because the hole just gets bigger and bigger
And everybody knows what I want man
So if I had a gun I’d shoot out the eyes of the sun

Oh lord I hate your spinning wheel
Should I fall before you lord or should I steal
All of your sad and fearsome truths
It makes you sick to see the folly of our youth

So I'm standing in the river
But I don't wanna die, on the aimless wings of your butterfly
Ain't it hard to keep standing on the ground when you're getting high

High on, every little thing I get my eyes on under the sun
High on, every little thing I get my eyes on under the sun
High on, every little thing I get my eyes on under the sun
High on, the only living man to make a prize of, the sun
Eyes of, the only living man to make a prize of the sun

Tavis E. Triance & The Natural Way is a multi-faceted project springing from the mind of singer songwriter Tavis E. Triance, formerly of the Royal Mountain Band and Spoon River. It harnesses his love of themes of darkness, absurdity and the unbridled madness of men, and imbues it with a lyricism and a swagger. ... more
