may the miles fall away beneath your tires as you're headed down the highway to your dreams may the sun be high in a clear blue sky on your detour down to new orleans and when your ship is westward bound may the wind fill your sails that day and when you've finally found what you're looking for out there i hope it blows you back my way and when you reach that angel city on the shores of that peaceful sea i really hope you find what you're looking for out there and head on back to me

i don't want to be your secret enemy i don't want to be your secret enemy who plots and schemes and hopes and dreams and prays to find a way to see you gone to see you gone when you came through the doorway i thought you were the one that we could face this thing together so that both of us could run but you took all of your burden yeah you put it all on me now take it back i would be free i don't want to be your secret enemy i don't want to be your secret enemy who plots and schemes and hopes and dreams and prays to find a way to see you gone to see you gone you say that you're the victim well i know that you're in pain but the problems that assail you you're at least in part to blame and the promise that you've given is as vacant as the tomb on sunday morning where evil met it's doom i don't want to be your secret enemy i don't want to be your secret enemy who plots and schemes and hopes and dreams and prays to find a way to see you gone to see you gone so go on out that doorway get out of my life i won't walk down this highway filled with bitterness and strife and when you get on out of here take your chaos with you too this is hard but it's what i have to do i don't want to be your secret enemy i don't want to be your secret enemy who plots and schemes and hopes and dreams and prays to find a way to see you gone to see you gone

moonlight it's not like sunlight for in the heavens there's only one light but in her story reflected glory it would shine for all to see but when the moon fell i walked in darkness for a time when the moon fell my heart was filled with crime when the moon fell i was angry at god and didn't even know the reason why but in that day when i shall gaze upon the sun with unveiled face in that day though far away i shall see my moon again though by the moonlight i was enchanted she was something i took for granted that when the time came i would call her name and the moon would walk with me but when the moon fell i walked in darkness for a time when the moon fell my heart was filled with crime when the moon fell i was angry at god and didn't even know the reason why but in that day when i shall gaze upon the sun with unveiled face in that day though far away i shall see my moon again and when the night falls upon that hillside i wait for sunlight to be my guide for in the darkness without the moonlight the stars were never enough to see but when the moon fell i walked in darkness for a time when the moon fell my heart was filled with crime when the moon fell i was angry at god and didn't even know the reason why but in that day when i shall gaze upon the sun with unveiled face in that day though far away i shall see my moon again

my tender heart was in turmoil i thought you buried beneath the soil but when your missive i read showed you back from the dead my heart it was filled with joy you say you hate me because i love you you say you hate me because i love you you say you hate me cause i told you that i love you i'm so glad that you're still alive you got a burner so you could text me not for to hug me but to vex me not cause you miss me or want to kiss me but to tell me i suck it hard you say you hate me because i love you you say you hate me because i love you you say you hate me cause i told you that i love you i'm so glad that you're still alive well if you call me i guess i'll answer my precious angel my gorgeous dancer but if you only write because you want to fight well, i guess i'll just walk on by you say you hate me because i love you you say you hate me because i love you you say you hate me cause i told you that i love you i'm so glad that you're still alive

Thank yous will be brief on this one, limited to those who helped me deal with either the production of this album or helping to keep me sane during the production of this album. Thank you to Mary Dickson, Frank Dickson, Catharine, Allison, Ryan, Austin and Bob for listening when I needed someone to. Thank you to Piero, Kyle and the open mic homies at Cafe Coco for providing an musical outlet and distraction. It's an honor to host that. Thank you to Isaac Craig, for helping make this better than it would otherwise be. There's probably some other people whose names should be in here but aren't. Hopefully you know who you are.
