lyrics

Nothing on the other side
Nothing on my mind
Just rolling around in time and space
Feelin fine

And i haven't got a clue
What i'm gonna do
Got a blank page staring right back at my face
Oh well

I'll just sing what i wanna sing
And i'll do it for free
Blow out the microphone and waste a while

Silos and a laundromat
I like the sound of that
Line all the catacombs with lace
That's nice

For a spirit
A simple force to follow for a misfit
Hidden in the hollows with a transmitter
There's always been another side of it.

Well everybody's in here
But i can't see a thing.
Feeling around in the crowd
For a trace of a friend

As sure as the moon is black
I'm gonna get off track
I'm only hoping i embrace the fall.

For a spirit
A simple force to follow for a misfit
Hidden in the hollows with a transmitter
There's always been another side of it.

One of these days i'll come back
Like a slow motion sneak attack
The rat races the wheel around.

For a spirit
A simple force to follow for a misfit
Hidden in the hollows with a transmitter.
There's always been another side of it.

Lighter than mountain air
Higher than everywhere
Coyote likes to call the place her own.

If your looking for a grand design
Come again some other time
The bottom line is hiding like an ace in the hole
The bottom line is hiding like an ace in the hole
