I watch with fiery eyes aglow The embers of a gentle soul Who brought me here once before And left my heart a polished stone, a polished stone The way of words is hard on me I'm cautious with the way they leave And I stand aside to only be The boy I know and the man you see, the man you see Time will keep me here In time I will disappear And long to be sincere In telling you I love you dear

On That Ride 02:52
She's chasing hope, she's chasing home She spends her time out by the moon And her heart is old but it's not alone So she just pours until it's gone I Could never let her down But like and orphan I forgot the sound This winding road has taken us for a ride And the ocean side just beats this heart of mine I've waited calm and I've waited past I've waited slow now I'm waiting fast The harbor's calling for the ships to arrive And I hope that I will see her on that ride I Could never leave her now Sometimes I wonder if I know why This vague old heart keeps teaching me how To look for her but leave her lonely now

(verse 1) In the afternoon I look to song To remind me where I'm from Most afternoons aren't long And I stare out the window in my home And I wait for your return And I stare at the canyons in my walls (chorus) I bought another dream Because my life it was in need I sold another day put those lies away you say ln the wake of my own greed I found a life didn't need And a vision, a vision of her (verse 2) And I took another road To give my mind somewhere to go And my mind took another road And your heart can nail you down And your ears might fear the sound And you'll fear the sound of tears (repeat chorus) (bridge) Of her Of her Of her

Honest Mark 04:44
There is an open field held by two thoughts There is an open field of hurt and pain and loss There is another world that I am forced to feed And portray the role of a soldier in Calvary And here I find myself in thought and lack of haste But there is meaning in the lives in which you waste Though the morning might, evaporate You won't let it get away These are stranger times and we hesitate But you won't let it get away No you won't let it get away No you won't let it get away No not today No not today No not today No not today And there are arsonists, below my feet And there are helpless men waiting to take their seat In the past they've held themselves in such high regards Yet to see them take their chair is such an honest mark And my brother he is waiting for me on the other side And when I finally reach him we'll laugh, we'll talk, we'll cry Though the morning might, evaporate You won't let it get away These are stranger times and we hesitate But you won't let it get away No you won't let it get away No you won't let it get away No not today No not today No not today No not today The dreams we hide upon the lives we wear The moment in your eyes when all was fair And I was sure that we could get away But not today No not today No not today No not today

Dark as Coal 03:52
It's alright if we go down roads just to find another end And I don't mind if you show your heart Cause morning time is for making life and being thrown inside of it And it's alright if you can't slow down Don't you wanna know from where your loneliness is waking Don't you ever wanna close your eyes Your weariness is hiding well below the surface And it's hoping that you're gonna change your mind It's alright if we hold back words just to fall inside of them Because in time we will learn our thoughts And these night skies, as cold as rivers and dark as coal Will blind our eyes to reach each others soul Don't you wanna know from where your loneliness is waking Don't you ever wanna close your eyes Your weariness is hiding well below the surface And it's hoping that you're gonna change your mind It's alright if we go down roads just to find another end And I don't mind if you show your heart

about

Tahoma Texas

Tahoma crosses over the thresholds of lucid, harmony-based folk, and classic, compelling
Americana Rock. Emblematic of artists like Ryan Adams and My Morning Jacket,
Tahoma boasts a flawless blend of indie-rock, Americana-soul, and classic rock n’ roll. Their
new single “Emerald Ring” emulates the band’s transformation from wine-sipping romantic
folk to definitively, classic American rock music.
