She said I was just a five
Thought that I was higher, but her chart don't lie
Guess I'll spend another day inside
How long will it be before our worlds collide?
Am I going mad or calming down?
She says that it's love but never comes around
She's holed up out there in that other town
Shuts the cellar door and I can't hear a sound
She said double five is ten
What's the formula for when we meet again?
Drive through the night past the state line
Arrive here with the sun in the morning time
But you might make me sick if you come here tonight
Yeah you might
Mallory, it's alright

short song it's been so long
haven't you no shame
aren't you to blame
for the years that we've gone so wrong
hate and disdain
is what's in a name
or were you insane all along?
i never dreamed it could get worse
than going to war in the name of a whore
pressure could cause anyone to burst
if you're living in fear
of damnation in hell
from that long lost forgotten bible verse
there's no denying this is weird
who wears a mask
and who is a beard
the islands always taking the last stand
kneeling on the naval of the promised land
deplorables reaching out their hands
short song it's been too long
home of the brave
jail of the slave
land of the free
short song

Vignette In Sea

sail this vignette out in sea
where the mermaids are even more sensitive than you and me
tell them it was no mistake
as we break through the wake past the never, major forever in sea
you know the weight of the air
ride out the tide of despair
losing that weight as you wade past the breakers
the horizon's in sea major there

I want to go where you don't know my name
Away from here where you all look the same
If I get lost it's my own self to blame
New York City, I'm coming home
Do you deserve to hold my only heart?
I'm so unnerved you always start and stop
You run so cold but now you're running hot
Beneath the steep canyons we'll roam
Because she always waits for me
But it's not cheap to live so free
From 1st and 1st to Thompson Street and South
Across the bridge is where I had my doubts
If I'm in love with you, they can never count me out
New York City I'm coming home
But she never waits for me
I can feel her moving underneath my feet
That unwashed train that took me home to you
September sun you always told the truth
Where else can I go to start anew?
I'm coming home
Steal away my skin and bones

Wooden Soldiers

At the toll plaza they don't take my money, gonna lay my honey down
At the courthouse the verdict is a virtual farce, gonna lay me on the ground
When I was younger and full of wonder, gonna lay my money down
Older turned'er into wooden soldiers, now my honey's not around
Been alone, cashed out that loan
What do you own when you can't take a chance?
Found a stone to call my own, until the sea has it's final dance
Maybe fear is gonna raise our children, gonna lay my honey down
What they're marching for is what we're building, as the world keeps spinning round.
It's worth the wait, it's heaven sent
Residence of precendents
You made it big baby, can't you see?
Everyone's talking bout what you mean to me
Wooden soldiers marching proud and tall we can rise and fall we can change

Jesse O'Neill Brooklyn, New York
Jesse O'Neill's latest effort, "The Guys of Darkness," out now, is a full-length electro rock instrumental album with longtime collaborator Jon Tario that is two years in the making. 'Darkness' finds Jesse trading folk guitar for synths, pads and keys to create an experimental avant-garde alien techno surf soundscape rooted in the guitar-based grunge punk that raised him. ... more
