Hey darling take a ride with me. Over the valley, oh what we might see. It’s taken a while, it’s been an unsaid trial. But here we are again Oh that familiar smile 5 in the morning, caught up in symphony Oh the coyote cry A crook in your shoulder, you feel so much older Something inside has died You make an appearance after disappearing For so long I said goodbye to you before I ever knew You would come back along Tall thin man in a black Cheyenne Hey darling take a look now, what I see How many secrets make up you and me Nobody said too much nobody bites their tongue. Nobody said enough, nothing was done. We got the kind of love that’s forever oh Forever begins Forever’s a moment like this, forever, Has always been. Leave it be where it is and let it Burn where it lies. Reference back to beautiful When everything dies. Tall thing man in a black Cheyenne

Go Home 04:25
Half a mile. Broke down some how. Thinking that we, Were something bigger than the seas. Maybe I’ll Stay in this room for a while. Deep in the blue In this room without a view. Won’t omit What I can’t admit. Oh it fell right through Just like we knew it to. Won’t omit What I can’t admit Yes it fell right through Just like we knew it to. Half a step to the whole nine yards Do you want to go home or do you Want to go hard? Wine to whiskey and Sparks to flame Climbing up but we’re slipping O’er this rugged terrain.

Something so big I'll never understand For there's a story in every grain of sand And I'm lost in awe in the power of the sun As we underestimate like we've always done Waves like distant relatives you never see them enough And the air is full of sedatives there's no sleeping it off It's a good time to go swimming The water is mighty willing
4.
The Dark 04:43
The dark is no place to call home But there’s hope in the shadows Too many days left alone Divided by Ego Once there was light In the darkest of nights Faithfully blinded Frozen in mind A love left behind Till I was reminded Till I was reminded To fall further down To crash harder To fight a losing round To burn to cinders The dark is no place to call home But you can’t hide forever Unheard unseen and unknown Or face the bad weather An impenitent heart With a cruel disregard To the death that’s around you A vast execution Built on proud destitution Have faith in the follow through Have faith in the follow through
5.
Only Mine 04:36
It’s true Everything that you said Is it as true as what you feel? I cast And hold the line release the doubt Nothing has ever felt this real And this cruel And haunted I’ll let you go I’ll bring the battle you’ll attack The words I love you I say out loud But you can’t say it back I see You clear when you can’t see yourself I hear but only when I listen I taste The tears when my eyes are dry Oh another failed reaction So I cast It unto my carelessness Where you meet me for some time The words I love you I say again These words are only mine Only mine Mon coeur brisée Only mine Ma seoul muse

Standing in the middle of seven temples Wandering jew at my feet Takin’ a long stroll through these old growth jungles Wonderin’ what’s buried underneath Do you ever feel like you’ve seen it all before? Maybe I just saw it on TV But my old eyes keep on looking out for more But in the puddles and the windows Your smile is all I see How I long for To see the sunrise in your eyes. Oh how I long for the moments That take you by surprise. I climb the highest tower and look at the top of the trees Call to the birds but they don’t seem to hear. My heart beats like a rabbit running from its prey As I run from love the only thing I fear This is where the king sits, feathers in his ringlets While his queen, she’s lost at sea. He waits for battle and he herds them in like cattle But lost, lonely without love he’ll forever be.

Salem 04:39
This becomes trial by fire When you see the worst in me Then it starts – the witch hunt You bring out the best in me One Match struck There will be no luck As the sky falls in like a ceiling Limbs are bound People all around And this town will hear what I’m feeling As I go That’s not me – I’ve been set free It’s all the same you know Though I’m gone the memory’s strong Enough to haunt you so One Match struck There will be no luck As the sky falls in like a ceiling Limbs are bound People all around And this town will hear what I’m feeling As I go

You are a southerner I’m from the north Travelling back and forth Backwards forwards Picking up speed on The Carnegie Curves The addled words Legitimate suffering Dropping it down to The hardwood floors Where a thousand doors Fell from their hinges Beyond the railing A suitcase falls And the time Spills over The time Spills over We took the time but too late Once was a part of this A virtuous friend But I turned out to be Just like you in the end Pointing our fingers Conducting the choir Selling your way Your messiah for hire Trade in my services For heartaches and rhyme And dimes on the dollar, it’s Hot under the collar, it’s Bitter like winter winds And hot like wine Well and I Got mine Yes I Got mine We took the time but too late Too late, too late, too late. Back off my shoulder I know you’re prison sent Crazy they called me Crazy they haven’t met Reasons why faded Didn’t you make it clear Crazy I am so Crazy I’ll always fear. We took the time but too late

If you were a river And you ran on through this town I’d be the banks to hold you I’d be the rocks that roll you I’d be the sand in the shallow corners hoping I could slow you down If you were a river Honey in your arms I would drown If you were a snowstorm And you landed on my house I’d be the fire you’d melt for I’d be the cat sleeping on the floor I’d be the girl in the neon snowsuit Howlin back at the wind If you were a snowstorm Honey won’t you snow me in Yee-hee heeeeeeee Walk on boys If you were a train car Rolling across this plain I’d be the tracks you’d follow I’d be your hobo cargo I’d be the stationmaster waiting all the way down the line If you were a train car I’d catch you ever time Everytime that I hear that whistle blowin Everytime that I feel the cold draw near Ever time this I think of better ways this could’ve gone They don’t last too long We go where we belong

about

Juicy and rich, this record is not to be missed. Marin's songs are like high country rivers - pure, rippling and flecked with gold and she's joined by the most stand-up band - The Follow Through.

Play it loud, listen closely.
