Lyrics

Blind Man In The Dark
(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

All I ask from anyone
Is that they ask nothing from me
Stared so long at the future
That I'm blind to reality
Come a time will watch our lives
Slip into the sea
All I ask from anyone
Is that they ask nothing from me

Dreams fly by like a thousand railroad trains
Egos steadfast like mountains in our brains
Those of us who let go will be swallowed
Left here to die

Do not look to the sky
It will not rain for you
Do not look to strangers
They won't help you through
Only chance you got
When you hear those war dogs bark
Is to be one up on your brother
Like a Blind Man in the dark

Face to face we will meet again
But never eye to eye
Meanwhile, in your mania
Your four wings touch the sky
Fly too high the wax will melt
And you'll fall down to your knees
All I ask from you my friend
Is that you ask nothing from me

Dreams fly by like a thousand railroad trains
Egos steadfast like mountains in our brains
Those of us who let go will be swallowed
Left here to die

Do not look to the sky
It will not rain for you
Do not look to strangers
They won't help you through
Only chance you got
When you hear those war dogs bark
Is to be one up on your brother
Like a Blind Man in the dark

Do not look to the sky
It will not rain for you
Do not look to strangers
They won't help you through
Only chance you got
When you hear those war dogs bark
Is to be one up on your brother
Like a Blind Man
Blind Man in the dark
Blind Man in the dark


Thorazine Shuffle
(Warren Haynes, Matt Abts)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI) / Jake Henry Music (ASCAP)

Stand by to stand by
Ain't no need to worry today
Thorazine shuffle make everything OK
I know how you feel
You say you need your highs and lows
But what if you could take your pain
And just let it go

Step right back and watch me now
I'll show you how it's done
Stay right here with me now
Till the damage is done
And the damage is done

Time drags by
When you're boring
Don't care what you do care what you say
There comes a time
When you got to let the monster inside you
Let him come on out, come on out and play

Step right back and watch me now
I'll show you how it's done
Stay right here with me now
Till the damage is done

Step right back and watch me now
I'll show you how it's done
Stay right here with me now
Till the damage is done
And the damage is done

Stand by to stand by
Ain't no need to worry today
Thorazine shuffle make everything OK

Game Face
(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

Sail on savior
I can't take no more of your insanity wisdom
Satisfy your angels
With your cocaine and your guns
As for me I don't need them

When my shadow comes alive
And wrestles with my soul
Oh, do you really want to know

Savior, you can be what you want to be
Oh yeah, and only see what you want to see
Sail on, can't let you get next to me

To be at one with your weakness
Is your greatest strength
Guess you should be proud of your game face

Guess it always was your hallelujah
Guess it was your saving grace

Savior, you can be what you want to be
Oh yeah, and only see what you want to see
Sail on, can't let you get next to me

You can say what you want now
My eyes are open wide
How was I ever on your side

Savior, you can be what you want to be
Oh yeah, and only see what you want to see
Sail on, can't let you get next to me


Towering Fool
(Warren Haynes, Matt Abts)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI) / Jake Henry Music (ASCAP)

Yeah, somebody somewhere must have hurt you
You must have been really abused
A victim of your raising
Isn't that your excuse
Towering Fool

In a dream I watched you inflict yourself
On everyone within reach
Now frozen in time I see it still
Like a movie
How long has it been since you shook the hand
Of those who fell under your feet
And how long has it been since you washed yours clean
From the blood and the dirt of the street
Did you really think you could just fly away
Fly right out of those blues
Did you towering fool

Don't you know greatness comes to those who can hold it
Did it slip right through your hands
Did it brush your sleeve as it passed you by
Do you compare yourself now to then

All this pent up anger
Don't you feel alone ranger
Don't you towering fool

So you use every ounce of your energy
To keep those around you down
But there is a tear in the eye of the ring master
And a smile on the face of the clown
Yeah, you couldn't see through your own arrogance
To what the whole world already knew
You had to keep pushing it past the point
Till it all crumbled down on you
Didn't you towering fool

Larger Than Life

(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

If I concentrate, will it just come to me
Run it by me, I'm willing to learn
Make no mistake, you'll never be allowed to come inside
Just be glad you're here on the outside looking in

'Cause it won't take long to get to the bottom
Won't take much to be looking down at yourself
You think you know something, but you don't know nothing
Everybody knows that death is larger than life

Captivate yourself; you're the only one that can help you now
With your cartoon savior by your side
Look around the room, do you see anyone that you recognize

Cause it won't take long to get to the bottom
Won't take much to be looking down at yourself
You think you know something, but you don't know nothing
Everybody knows that death is larger than life

'Cause it won't take long to get to the bottom
Won't take much to be looking down at yourself
You think you know something, but you don't know nothing
Everybody knows that death is larger than life


Raven Black Night

(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

Raven black night
Let me walk with you upon the wind
Dream-escape to another world where we belong

Sleep-awake make up your mind
Help me find a stranger, a stranger with the answer
Who'll enlighten me and just disappear
Into the raven black night

Raven black night
Stars no longer even try to shine
Penetrate the darkness for a moment
But what's the use

Death dance make up your mind
Do I fear the spirits
And hide from the angels
Do I try to find the light
Or do I just follow you
Into the raven black night

Raven black night
Let me walk with you upon the wind
Dream-escape to another world where we belong
we belong
we belong


I Shall Return

(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

As this wheel goes 'round and I search to find my way
Struggle just to hold on through an ordinary day
I do believe I'm slipping away

But I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return

Fate should not have blinded me
For your beauty steals my eyes
And what good is my wisdom
When there are no words to say
How I feel everyday

But I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return

Daylight finds me sleeping dreaming of my youth
But darkness calls my name out loud
And I answer to the truth

But I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return

Oh, I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return
