Call Me Out

Can you write me a lulliby for my soul
Rewrite the words upon my stone
Find me another line of work
And raise my hands out from this cold hard earth
Chorus:
Can you call me out from the darkness
Can you call me out from my closed eyes
Can you call me out, hit the reset
Can you call me out, bring peace to my mind
Can you paint me a picture from the lines on my face
A tale of a man who never sleeps
With two drooping eyes and a wandering mind
He spends his life searching to buy some time

Another For The Birds

Here's another for the birds
Who keep me in the lines
Will I ever find what they heard
Shed a little light on me
'Cause I just need some sugar
Some sugar for my tea
Pre chorus:
When I lay myself to rest
I'll be sure to give the best to all who live there
My dreams are keeping me awake
And the wrestling stays beneath the waves
Chorus:
Stir me up and let me settle down
Stir me up, the birds are in the clouds
Stir me up and let me be
Stir me up, 'cause I just need some sugar for my tea
Now raise it up toward the sky and give it a life
And let a little light shine down on me
I need a little time to realize
That I just need some sugar for my tea
There's no time, no time at all
For me to start my questions for me to stall
Pre chorus - chorus.

River Rocks

I'm writing out another article
Of clothing in words
Coverings for our fragile souls
You know that words have a power
Beyond what words can tell
The reaper and the sewer
Will get a different end of that spell
Chorus:
The lights shine bright on the busy end of town
But the dogs run free where that light forgets the ground
Now don't them river rocks make it look easy
Nestled at the bottom of the stream
They're smoothed of their edges
Well rounded and clean
We forget they've been washed
Thrashed and tossed through the vortex
Before they're collected on a shelf
And admired by some hippie, singing
Chorus x2
Can we find a little love between us all
We've got no time to lose
We need to see what we saw
Because beneath our innocent eyes we've been
Lost in our daydreams
Chorus...

Fill it up - Broken cup
04:25
|
|||
|
This is a home this is a heart
Can you feel it stop to reach for love
Reach to fill it up
The cup, it always seems to break halfway
And what you make of the rest is what you make of today
So what do you say
Chorus:
Its all just fantasy
Just a dream a dream made
Born from anxiety
It's getting hard to believe
But the winds are blowing strong
To bring me back to my own arms
We ask for time we've got a wrist watch
The hands tick and point as we just watch
To try to fit the design we create on the daily
Are you seeing this plainly
We say that we're free
as we trap ourselves I our own devices
We're screaming and shouting
Claiming every molehill as a crisis
We say that we're free
We say we can see
We say we can be anything
Just as soon as we get up our of our seat
Can we say that love is an attitude
And not simply an attribute
Can we agree that change is ours to make
Ours to take, and ours to create
By bending the lense for happiness sake
Can we stop pretending our smiles
Are nothing more than fake
Chorus

Tony Farris is a singer/songwriter residing in the town of Hopewell, Va. Inspired greatly by the Folk Boom music of the 60's up into the psychedelia movement, Progressive rock, grunge and garage rock, the list goes on.
