The Tallest Man on Earth – To Just Grow Away Lyrics 13 years ago
from the man himself @ deadoceans.com

We’re melting ruby hearts
a confusing trade
to burn the ore
to shape a blade
then to swing it low
beginners fate
to lose a skin
to just grow away
Like a rain, to help a river
but a river so hard to please
but I’ve grown to see the diamonds
you’ve thrown in just for me
We spent so many nights
just gathering stones
the silver tears
old sapphire bones
all the copper leaves
then dreamt, now true
look how they find their path
to cut right through
Like a rain, to help a river
but a river so hard to please
but I’ve grown to see the diamonds
you’ve thrown in just for me
Look when your hopeless child will figure
there are moments when hope’s not
only real when flagging far down a road
with an armful broken arrows
and no hand free for the bow
your kid will lose a battle
but your ways
will let him go
I lose my wish to drown
and aimless flee
what you’ve thrown to lose
is still right here with me.

The Tallest Man on Earth – Revelation Blues Lyrics 13 years ago
from the man himself @ deadoceans.com:

Revelation Blues

I was more than just a coward
I was handsome too
I felt nothing when your flood came down
holding fines that made me wonder if the lights were wrong
with my hands that never touched no ground
when your talent is in numbers
of the many times you’re gone
I could lie I don’t care about forgiving
but sometimes it’s just roses dying too young
As I’m fencing up the hours
in the fields of red
while you think I’m on a loveless straight
in the letters from the lovers in a land gone wrong
explanations always written late
when your talent curse the framing
of the crying you heard sung
I could lie I don’t care about what’s missing
but sometimes it’s just roses dying too young
your train of thoughts is always passing here
with its falling paint, and its broken gears
it’s the damn revelation blues when you see the path
and you know you won’t be the last,
oh lord…
I was more than just a terror
I was crying too
but you showed me in the gusts between
that a wind is sometimes broken and its flying path
has no meaning nor a ghost within
when your talent is in hiding
that your feeling is always wrong
I always want to bring you something
but sometimes it’s just roses dying too young.

The Tallest Man on Earth – Revelation Blues Lyrics 13 years ago
I was more than just a coward
I was handsome too
I felt nothing when your flood came down
And finds that made me wonder
If the lights were wrong
Well my hands they never touched no ground

Well you're telling this in numbers
Of the many times you're gone
I could lie -- I don't care about forgiving
But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

And you're fencing up the hours
In the fields of red
Why you think I'm on a loveless trail
In the letters from the lovers
In the land gone wrong
Explanations always written late

When you're telling curse to framing
Of the crying you heard song (sounds like he's saying you but makes no sense)
I could lie -- I dont care about what's missing
But sometimes its just roses dying too young

Well your train of thought
Always passing here
When it's falling babe
And its broken gears
It's the damn Revelation Blues
When you see the path
And you know you wont be the last
Oh lord, Oh lord

I was more than just a terror
I was crying too
But you showed me in the gusts between
That a wind is sometimes broken
And its flying path
Has no meaning or a ghost within

Well you're telling this in hiding
Now your feeling's always wrong
And I always wanna bring you something
But sometimes its just roses dying too young

The Tallest Man on Earth – Weather of a Killing Kind Lyrics 15 years ago

You said the sun's behind the fallen
It's how the creatures heat their paws
And lay their hands on my decisions
And burn right through the books of sober loss
