[I: After The Drought, Part I] This is the night That keeps my moon Follow the light I’ll find you soon I’m gonna put my shadow in stone I’m gonna find a new way home After the drought When the rain soaks me through I’ll find out… [II: Cardboard Carrier] I’m a cardboard carrier With boxes piled high My airplane splits the October sky Everything I know I’m leaving it behind Tell my friends I made it out alive Some dreamers can’t be told About the ocean depths They’d rather find out how long They can hold their breath Some dreamers have nightmares About standing still That’s why I’m never sleeping When there’s time to kill This is what I do This is why I live This is who I am I have so much to give They hear me play They sing along This is who I am The torch has passed The show goes on [III: Frank (I Hear It Never Rains In California)] Now, I know that we never met But they say I have your hands People tell me stories About the concerts and the bands We both became our instruments With hammers in our heart The strings of the piano Kept us from falling apart Now, I know that we don’t talk But I know what you would say That I have to follow my song However far away I hear it never rains in California [IV: Loud] There are hills punched out of the ground Frozen fireworks that never melt Millions of people with millions of emotions That just have to be felt On a TV show or magazine In a pop song or movie screen From the pseudo-psycho superstars To starving artists living in a garage Everybody’s carrying the dirt They can’t shake off from their roots They try to run, but it’s stuck to them like gum On the bottom of their boots Some are worth forgetting Some are more than proud Either way, hold on tight Cos It’s gonna get loud It’s gonna get loud It’s gonna get loud So many voices rise from the evangelists Who traded in their angels for Angeles It’s gonna get loud It’s gonna get loud [V: Tell Me] If you stare down Route 66 The lost highway that pours concrete into the Pacific You realize we come and go But we don’t die, we just echo We all share this fragile foundation It’s plastered, painted over By muses that abandoned their station Like old Hollywood, I come and go But dreams don’t die, they just echo Echo I dream of my grandfather’s piano And ask if I’m its voice Echoing through the time Did I ever have a choice? This city has its wonders This city of the sun I’ve seen things that you would not believe But sometimes it feels like You’re the only ones Who remember how I used to be Father, tell me Mother, tell me Sister, tell me Sister, tell me Is being this far away Worth the stories I tell? And you tell me: “Some dreamers can’t be told About the ocean depths They’d rather find out how long They can hold their breath Some dreamers have a dream That takes them far from home But we are right behind you And you’re not alone” [VI: After The Drought, Part II] My pen hits the page with enough force To shake the birds out of all the trees I don’t need a blue sky to set my course I’m taking back my keys Let it rain I hope it pours, I hope it pours I hope it floods, I’ll find the shore I’m done with battles, bring on the war This is the night That keeps my moon Follow the light I’ll find you soon I’m gonna put my shadow in stone I’m gonna find a new way home After the drought The water soaks me through Now I’m finding out What life’s about The water soaks me through Now I’m finding out What life’s about
