Train Like a Gun

Train like a gun
Shoot through the desert and sun
Attraction is a bitch
Your devilish smile
Combined with heavenly style
You're really quite a dish
You're fighting for attention
You fight with your past
You're dangerous shattered glass
Train like a gun
You shoot but you've just begun
To ride out on your own
Ride out on your own
Dry your eyes and touch the sky
Dry your eyes and touch the sky
Train like a gun
Unload a barrel of fun
Disaster is a fix
Invisible care
When you're visibly scared
It's really quite a mix
You're fighting for affection
You're fighting to last
You're dangerously relaxed
Train like a gun
You shoot but you've just begun
To ride out on your own
Ride out on your own
Now it's in motion
The commotion
You could not say out loud
Train like a gun
Shoot through the desert and sun
Attraction is a bitch
Your devilish smile
Combined with heavenly style
It's really quite a mix
You're fighting for affection
You're fighting to last
You're dangerously relaxed
Train like a gun
You shoot but you've just begun
To ride out on your won
Now ride out on your own
Dry your eyes and touch the sky
Dry your eyes and touch the sky

Forget What They Say

Close your eyes
Open up your mind
There's too much distraction going on outside
Just leave it all behind
If you want to fly
You've gotta leave it all behind
Forget what they say
You gotta make your won way
There's too much confusion going on inside
You gotta leave it all behind
If you want to fly
You've gotta leave it all behind
To overcome what holds you down
You must become the head that wears the crown
On your mark
Open up your heart
There's too much affliction going on outside
You gotta leave it all behind
If you want to fly
You gotta leave that shit behind
Forget what they say

Watch It Burn

Down and out on a dark and dreary night
I feel a bit crazy
Heaven help me if I never see the light
Emancipate me
I've played their games, with all their rules
There's nothing there but kings and fools
Fan the flame to frame my name
It's time to tell the truth
The world is made of fire
A flame that love inspires
With a heart full of gasoline
I'm gonna watch it burn
Watch it burn
I clear my mind of everything I know
I feel a bit lighter
Strike a match and revel in the glow
It's getting brighter
Who am I if not myself?
When I'm not me then I'm not well
Stoke the flame, watch it burn
My heart will tell the truth
The world is made of fire
A flame that love inspires
With a heart full of gasoline
I'm gonna watch it burn
Watch it burn

Wash You Away

I've tried wine
Been whisked away by whiskey's kiss
I got baptized in a pool of gin
Just to wash you away
It feels like a dream
Broken flowers on the floor
I know it's my fault, so I drink the blame
Just to wash you away
I drink about you every day
There's no cure for broken hearts
So I'm drinking to wash you away
There's no relief
There's no shelter from your storm
I'm an empty shell of my old self
I can't wash you away
I drink about you every day
There's no cure for broken hearts
So I'm drinking to wash you away

In the Beginning

Everything is far
Close enough to see
But just out of reach
You have a poet's voice
Your words are paper thin
Springing from a fountain
High up on a mountain
In the beginning
There was nothing up above
Heaven is a cloud of dust
That stuck together in the name of love
In the beginning
There was nothing here but time
Now time keeps moving on
It never was, and will never be enough
Everything is clear
Perfect like the sky
So endlessly open
You swim against the tide
Desire sets you free
The struggle was worth it
In the beginning
There was nothing up above
Heaven is a cloud of dust
That stuck together in the name of love
In the beginning
There was nothing here but time
Now time keeps moving on
It never was, and will never be enough

Craig Haller Nashville, Tennessee
Craig Haller was born with a chip on his shoulder and a song in his heart. His music is the byproduct of many hours spent in obsessive contemplation. With a flair for memorable melodies and an overabundance of poetic license, he happily casts himself as lord of his own creative landscape—a land of genre fluidity, appetizing aural atmospheres, and turns of phrase that refuse to be pinned down. ... more
