Why do our kids have to show us what gun control is all about?

The old farm roads a four lane that leads to the mall, and our dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall.

I noticed with older songs that I perform that I'm coming from a different place with them now...it mutates the vibe and even the meaning of the same words when you have a different spirit, if the person singing is different. I like that, to be able to sing an emotionally wrought song from a more centered place, or to sing an eager, youthful song from a more experienced place. It kind of colors the songs differently, and it keeps them fresh.

When you grow up surrounded by willful ignorance, you have to believe that mercy has it's own country and that it's round and borderless.

A little bird told me that jumping is easy and the falling is fun, right up until you hit sidewalk shivering and stunned.

Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger, and never to their own fear.

Too much is how I love you, but too well is how I know you.
