Lyrics
The Road To Nashville
(Emil Friis)
I saw a burning red desire, right then I shouted down the wire
A day is gonna come a-passing
Many people we have yet to met, arrangements have been made for a feast
It's been laid down so you won't ever forget it
So I'm telling a lonesome soul, to climb right out of his hole
We'll be going out on a journey
Gonna force him to see, there's only one way in which he can be
It's just a damn shame there are so many bends in the road going to Nashville
Down a dark alley there were tears, they've stained my mother for years
Papa ain't a rolling stone, he's a loner
Met a little boy filled with greif, explaining to me the true nature of defeat
There's only so much a man is capable of
So I'm telling a lonesome soul, to loosen a bid of control
You've sown the seed and now you'll have to care for it
Many things have come and gone, mean while you struggle to ramble on
It's just a damn shame there are so many bends in the road going to Nashville
While you go lay in the gutter, word has been sent to your mother
Believing in youself sometimes can be very dangerous
The world now is obsolete, they've thrown all the babies into the street
You want one for your own, but you know you can't have it
And so I'm telling a lonesome soul to climb back into his hole
You're uncalled for, we don't need you here
But I know he'll try and brake away, tearing on his chain
It's just a damn shame there are so many bends in the road going to Nashville

Lyrics
I've tried to tell you why, you will always be my dear
I've tried to understand, why you and I must be here
And when I saw them coming toward you, I tried to warn you then
I lost my sight for a moment, I won't ever lose it again
And when you come down from your golden throne, here I will stand
And when you need to, just tell them I'm you're man

Lyrics
I cried like a baby all night in my dreams
I've asked for guidance nobody knows what it means
They buried my somewhere deep but up I came
I had no choice nobody in this world knows my name
And it's been a long time traveling the rolling seas
I came to greet you before you had the chance to come see me
It rains when I get up in the morning, it rains when I got to bed
But I ain't hearing voices I ain't got that big a head
I'll go where ever you want I'll do what ever you say
And if we don't make it just say I went the wrong way
And it's been a long time traveling the rolling seas
I came to greet you before you had the chance to come see me
You come down on me gentle, weak I stand
I tried resisting, I just ain't that kind of man
Rolling river in this jerking boat I sail
I tried changing the minds of people but that too was to no avail
And it's been a long time traveling the rolling seas
I came to greet you before you had the chance to come see me

Lyrics
Grandpa and his three brothers grew up thin
They lived of the land and they called themselves men
They were only kinds back then
They looked toward the future, could only see the past
The world kept spinning it changed so fast
Seemed like nothing would ever last
And now everything's ruined
With the world at war and nothing to gain
Grandpa's three brothers all changed their name
Maybe looking for some kind of change
They borrowed some money don't you know
Set sail for the old Amerigo
Grandpa stayed home why nobody knows
And now everything's ruined
They arrived in the city were told to west
If you want work you need to go there it's best
And so they went like all the rest
But work was hard to find even there
They didn't know no one and no one seemed to care
Not everyone get's to be a millionaire
And now everything's ruined
But you must keep at it and work will come in time
So they moved themselves a little further down the line
Maybe they could get some work cutting the pines
Seemed like what ever they were trying to gain
People around here had already given it a name
They just hope they hadn't traveled this far in vain
And now everything's ruined
And so work they finally got one day
Slaving in mines you might say
Hoping nobody would take it way
Three brothers worked themselves into an early grave
Some called them stupid others called them brave
Of that dream they were all made slaves
And now everything's ruined

Birdy Blues
(Emil Friis)
Birdy weeded and Birdy wept
It's all gone it's all dead
You've been laying it low, you've been laying it low
Happend on one early morn
The stakes were high now all the money's gone
Oh why you ask oh Birdy why
Why did you think I'd wonna steal your fire
Down the alley there
People started congregating Birdy didn't care
Nothing do I care, I just don't care for it a thing
They wanted compensation for the trouble they'd seen
Birdy said screw you I don't care for your dreams
Nothing do I see I don't see a thing
So away marching they went
They didn't care either they too had to pay the rent
Oh why you ask oh Birdy why
Why did you think I'd wonna steal your fire
The men went out on the killing spree
Told Birdy to shove it and now she free
Free from everyone and all the rest
The moon is sleeping and the dawn is near
Birdy wanted to change the world but it ended in tears
Oh why you ask oh Birdy why
Why did you think I'd wonna steal your fire

Lions
(Emil Friis)
There ain't nothing like living in a bottle, having the world for your own
I'm so glad we have come back, marching trumpets are gonna take us home
Remember dreaming of a little boy, a house full of laughter full of joy
Oh what a sight to be seen, ships that sail now mean nothng to me
Oh but you and I know, what the world don't know
We tamed every living lion for you to come this way
And now the gates have opened for the light and the dark
Come sit on my lap, you're the best thing I ever had
Snow outside in the breeze and wind, it's cold here but you've got a friend
The lions we tamed will keep us warm, I want all those lions to never go
Oh but you and I know, what the world don't know
We tamed every living lion for you to come this way
And now the gates have opened for the light and the dark
Come sit on my lap, you're the best thing I ever had

A Smiling Face
(Emil Friis)
Lately things got to be so bad, had to ask my old pa for a loan
I ran everything into the ground, please tell ma I wont make it home
Seem like I'm at the bottom of this here race
I wish I could look into the mirror and see a smiling face
I've had dreams for a long long time, them too I was unable to fulfill
I wanted things to move real fast, but I couldn't it all stand still
Just tagging long, moving at the slowest pace
I wish I could look into the mirror and see a smiling face
When you're looking strait at me, do you see a man
I wanna raise a family here, but I just don't think I can
Can't get it together, it's a damn disgrace
I wanna look into the mirror and see a smiling face
Dead city everywhere and my name is gone
I've tried avoiding it but looks like I too will have to trot along
When the sun is low in the sky and I've found that certain place
I too will look into the mirror and see my smiling face

Paper Moon
(Emil Friis)
The world now turns just in your honor
I sit here alone for to rest my head
I take comfort in knowing there's a paper moon
Watching over you as you sleep in your bed
Your mother lies naked she will soon have to feed you
And I have come home from a day full of dread
But it's alright for the paper moon
Is there to watch over you as you sleep in your bed
When morning comes and a new day is breaking
Through your life will run a golden thread
It's your friend the old paper moon
Who's there to watch over you as you sleep in yourbed

These Two Hands
(Emil Friis)
You've always been my lover, but I was never alowed to tell
And you there was no fooling, you knew and you know so well
About building bridges, way across the ocean
All I have is fixed inside this one emotion
And I dive into the dessert and my whole body fills with sand
And all there's left I right here, in these two hands
I prey upon you, I prey night and day
My every motion is like some pendulum in sway
You open wide as I come across
I feel so very close to everything I ever lost
And I dive into the dessert and my whole body fills with sand
And all there's left I right here, in these two hands
The world turned over as we lay in this bed
I longed to feel you there was so little I could have said
Time goes sliding the noise is now hard to hear
I tried to tame you, there was nothing here for you to fear
And I dive into the dessert and my whole body fills with sand
And all there's left I right here, in these two hands

Wishing For Something Else
(Emil Friis)
Well the blues came down this morning
And me I'm still locked inside this cell
The stars have gone, I travel alone
Wishing for somehting else
I bagged what I got and now I'm roaming
The way things are I might as well
The places I've been, the people I've seen
Everybody's wishing for somehting else
Women rules the world it ain't run by men
Everybody knows but they don't tell
They cheat and they lie, I laugh when I cry
Heading down the road wishing for somehting else
I'm knee deep but at least I'm trying
There's gotta be some way out of this here hell
Nobody take a stand, just run while you can
And I'll stay behind wishing for somehting else

Shoveling Stones
(Emil Friis)
I'm down in the dirt here shoveling stones
I'm trying to work this thing but I can't do it on my own
I would've thought you'd know better, but you don't
I can't make you change when you won't
I'm down in the dirt here crawling on my hands and knees
But you do as you want, I let you do as you please
You and me bumping around like two little bees
Love ain't a gift it's a desease
But I'll get over it don't you worry
I'll get over it real nice and neat
You go on sail off in your little rocking boat
And I'll stay here and build myself a fleet
But there's something you need to promise yourself
For the next time around
You need to learn how to steer that thing a whole lot better
For some of these rocking boats they go down
I'm down in the dirt here doing what I know
I'm trying to plant a few seed there's something I'm trying to grow
I feel the breeze from you shadow asking me to go
I need some new clothes but my hand they won't sew
But I'll get over it don't you worry
I'll get over it real nice and neat
You go on sail off in your little rocking boat
And I'll stay here and build myself a fleet
But there's something you need to promise yourself
For the next time around
You need to learn how to steer that thing a whole lot better
For some of these rocking boats they go down

King Of Rock N Roll
(Emil Friis)
Hallelujah they are all singing as they raise their glass
Someone's about to be tought a lesson and it'll happen fast
All this here I have
Is something which I stole
There's only one way of getting there
When you're trying to be the king of rock n roll
I'm about to see things happen, I'm about to see world explode
As I go down the narrowest of ways to my place in the cold
All this here I have
Is something which I stole
There's only one way of getting there
When you're trying to be the king of rock n roll
Come lay beside me you don't need to know why
You know what's going to happen in front of you I need not to lie
All this here I have
Is something which I stole
There's only one way of getting there
When you're trying to be the king of rock n roll

Stumble & Fall
(Emil Friis)
This sheet here is empty I can't no words that rhyme
You ain't broken my heart yet and I don't think you will with time
I've walked alone for so long, I've had no one to call
Please forgive me if I should stumble for I wish to fall
The street here are packed, I hear where you are it rains
I've been through most kinds of hell now I understand the purpose of pain
Happiness is a funny term, I try but I can't explain it at all
All I know is I do stumble
All I know is I do fall
They said I've grown older but I feel the reverse of time
And for now I just keep on walkin with the thoughts you in my mind
I think of how when I get back home, again in my arms you'll crawl
Don't mind me I just stumble
Don't mind me at all I just fall
I've come down Parigi ways but I can't remember what for
This life ended a long time ago, I don't belong here any more
And so I close my eyes, I hear your voice upon me call
And then onward I stumble
Still I continue to fall

Down From The Horizon
(Emil Friis)
I came down form the horizon
I need to find some place else to be
You can serve me milk with coffee
Just don't talk to me about dignity
Despite what you say, I owe you nothing
All I got is right here in this sack
You go on as you say a-rambling
Just don't expect to be ever wanted back
I go on and I be gay-o
I get on the boat I sail-o
Back to that place where you need me to be
I've come close a few times but it don't matter
Not when you go to and fro
But still I keep climbling that ladder
You've seen me down on the road as I go
I go on and I be gay-o
I get on the boat I sail-o
Back to that place where you need me to be

Book Of Faces
(Emil Friis)
You noticed my eyes have turned grey
Guess I'm just sick of laissez faire
But you don't keed to worry about me baby
I'll find my own way there
It's got nothing to do with you
I've just had it with people and friends
It's always easy being the judge
But at least I never did pretend
I've seen your hand
As it slowly moved the pen
Inside that book of faces
You where drwaing then
My boots are too shiny
So I've decided to take them for a walk in the rain
I'm hoping it will wear them down
But it don't matter much the same
The human spirit I never fully understood
In that way my creator to me was never that kind
And sometime I need to pinch myself
Just to see if you're still mine
I've seen your hand
As it slowly moved the pen
Inside that book of faces
You where drwaing then
I'm tired now
From walking I've torn my feet
I'm gonna go back to you're apartment
You're preparing something for me to eat
I'll tell you that I love you
A thing I hardly never do
Or maybe I'll say nothing at all
And just admire
The quiet
Little ways
You do
The things
You do

Bread & Crumbs
(Emil Friis)
I'd be real happy if you'd bring me bread and crumbs
I'm starving here and they're banging the drum
They're banging it hard and they're banging it loud
But I don't say nothing I never laugh loud
I went outside had a look at the world today
Everything is supposed to be so close yet it looks so far away
I've measured my distance and it I ran
There are so many things I would like to but them I never understand
I've slowed down now I've found a place
It may not look like freedom but it ain't cage
There ain't no place I rather be
Though my eyes are closed still all I see

Tennessee
(Emil Friis)
Tennessee you've been up to no good
And you dragged me along
You forgot to tell me about this crazy old world
And how it all went wrong
Tangled up in pines, living down the line
All curled up in the wind
All this talk of forever has got me
Forgetting about my friends
Tennessee I've been trying
To make some kind of sense
It's gotta be a wonder to any one
Where all that stuff went
But I'm telling you it went down
And I'm just trying to get up
Keep crossing your fingers and maybe
One day we'll stumble onto luck
Tennessee you and me
Now ain't that just the sight
I still dream of sinking ships
And one day taking flight
Heading down the road moving down the line
Little old you and me
Didn't they all just go crazy
When they saw me trying to climb that big old tree

Yellow
(Emil Friis)
You were down in the bottom, when news came from above
They are gonna throw in the towl, they are gonna give it all up
What ever hand God held above your head, he'll be taking it away
You don't wanna go no place, all you wanna do is stay
But your cheating and your lying, your sobbing and your consequently crying
Has cast a shadow of doubt on any one who ran
A world in a state of turmoil, temperature rising to which blood beging to boil
You wanna change it so bad, but you know that you can't
And now there ain't no one to lend a hand
There's only so much a narrow complexion can stand
Well you've been running all over town, flashing that little piece around
Nobody, ever though it would end this way
And when you climbed that hill they crowned you king, all clapped their little hands and they all did sing
About doing good deeds, when everybody knew how you had done wrong
But your skin turned yellow and your eyes turned rare, you wanted to hide but they all stood there and stared
Calling you traitor, to your face

The Wicked Messenger
(Emil Friis)
You can tell the wicked messenger
She better come clean
For I have seen the man in black
And now I'm following that dream
He's setting here
Strumming on a red guitar
He's gonna take me away
But he can only take me so far
You can tell the wicked messenger
I'm leading a life of my own
Either you share the pain
Or you leave me alone
The man in black
Is wearing his shadow low
I gotta keep on moving
Need to find some place to go
You can tell the wicked messenger
To come here no more
I've sealed off all the windows
I've locked all the doors
The man in black
Is gonna tell me when it is time to run
Everybody here
They're all waiting for that change to come

Land Of Broken Dreams
(Emil Friis)
Let me tell you about this place I know
Where the risk is high and the out come is low
It was there I was thought to believe
There in the land of broken dreams
I heard salvation lies within
It sure don't if you're nobody and you've lost your twin
And so if you've got something you wish to keep
I know a place you can lose it, it's called the land of broken dreams
And if ever you wanna make it grand
I'll take you there leed you by the hand
Down those streets ever so mean
Down the land of broken dreams

A Little Something
(Emil Friis)
I lost a little something
Though I didn't have that muh to lose
Losing a part of one self
Is bound to make any man feel confused
I remember sunshine
Written over Parigi town
Back then in my fragile mind
I wasn't yet a man ready to settle down
I would have paid for my foolish ways
But I had nothing to give
I blame it enterily on myself
And the life I chose to live
Hung up on promises to myself
I had no entention of keeping
I wrongfully thought I was living
But living ain't the same as dreaming
And now Julie loves me
She loves me long tall and mean
She don't say it
But I know I'm the man of all them dreams
I came across nothing
And then nothing disappeared
I would have liked to say
But nothing said I don't want you here
So I dug a few holes
But I never really did fit
Guess only little holes can be dug
From what nothing did
And now Julie loves me
She loves me long tall and mean
She don't say it
But I know I'm the man of all them dreams

Mutineer
(Emil Friis)
This ship is empty
It's a sinking boat
I'm the only one here
Trying to say a-float
And you left
And left in fear
You a coward
You're the Mutineer
The captain's down
But he's clinging to the cross
When you look at me
You might think I'm lost
But I never did abandon
Every golden though and idea
You did
You're the Mutineer
I can never see you
And you can never see me
This mountain I've build
Is just way to steep
But I'm sure glad
The way you left me here
You'll always be my coward
And my Mutineer

The Man In The Wind
(Emil Friis/Mads Aabo)
I've looked into shadows
Seen death that crawled
It don't matter where I stand
Some day this world is gonna fall
So go ahead and hope
Go right ahead and dream
Nothing here is ever gonna wash you clean
I ain't no good
I'm nobody's son
I'm the man in the wind
A lost soul on the run
Some day I'll let it loose
And then you all know
My reasons for leaving
And why I had to let you go
I ain't no good
I'm nobody's son
I'm the man in the wind
A lost soul on the run

Green Eyed Little Girl
(Emil Friis)
I'm in motion
But ain't going anywhere
I've looked into the room
It is your face I see there
There you sit
With your golden hair hanging down
Ain't it funny
I thought I'd be leaving this town
But I'm gonna cast away the stone
And let the burden go
Can't you see I'm sinking
I'm a-sinking low
Into a sea
Void of any form
I know you're gonna have to leave me
Alone to ride the storm
Green eyed little girl
If the good lord is willing
Maybe one day again
I'll be apart of your world
In between dreams
It is you that I see
You're looking at yourself
But really you're looking at me
There's something you're trying to tell me
You whisper into my ear
But the noise is too loud
And your words aren't that clear
Green eyed little girl
If the good lord is willing
Maybe one day again
I'll be apart of your world

Baby, I'm Your Man
(Emil Friis)
I drew the best hand
You'll ever hold
Cashed in the diamonds
The silver and the gold
You forgot to collect your winnings
Right here where I stand
And therefore didn't see
Baby, I'm your man
I used to live in a foreign country
Now I'm hiding from the cold
I'm a-doing the impossible
At least that's what I'm told
I'm a-trying to do
What nowbody can
Making you see
Baby, I'm your man
There's a thousand miles between us
It seem no love at all
I'm walking a razor's edge
But I'll be back this coming fall
I'll you the best I have
Place it in your hands
And then you'll see
Baby, I'm your man
Today I watched the sunrise
Sitting on rock
Felt fortune smiling
Blessing me with luck
As I looked down
It was written in the sand
One day you'll see
Baby, I'm your man

Lyrics
Seena's Song
(Emil Friis)
There ain't no man
Left inside of me
Only a little boy
Though he is blind and he can't see
There's a fire burning
The smoke got caught in his eyes
He's telling me his gonna stay here
And the leave after a little while
In the clearest of dreams
I have seen a little girl
She looked at me in the mirror
Said have faith in this world
In a soft voice she spoke to me
Like only daughters do
And in that moment of happiness
I realised she was the child in you
When I lay myself to rest
In your memory comfort I seek
You are never far away
Though in my heart you're buried deep
I remember the touch of your body
The shape of your eyes and lips
And when I am in the land of dreams
Again it is you that I kiss
You've made up your mind
Haven't ya little Seena
If only for a moment
I'm sure glad I got to met ya

Lyrics
Living Hell
(Emil Friis)
Walking down these streets
I don't feel at ease
But then how can you
When you have a heart that bleeds
I need to get out of this town
I guess I've had enough
Anywhere but here
I'll have better luck
My nerves are numb
And my body it is sore
I think I know this place
I'm must have been here before
It seems I'm stuck
And I just can't leave
Being in this town
Is like a mortal disease
Everyhting here is so ugly
I need to see something pretty
I wanna leave this country
And move back into the city
Where I can roam the streets
And just be myself
Here everything feels
Just like living hell

Lyrics
Bare Rooms
(Emil Friis)
I woke up this morning
Dragged myself out of bed
I don't feel like much
I just feel dead
I have a hard time remembering
How it all went wrong
Love comes a-creeping in
And then it's gone
The sun rises then melts away
The rooms are bare and the groud cold as clay
I'm gonna paint the town
In colors of black
I ain't turning around
And I ain't looking back
There's money to be spent
And blood to be split
The only thing that keeps me going now
Is my will
The sun rises then melts away
The rooms are bare and the groud cold as clay
Has anybody got somehting
This old boy can hide behind
I ain't looking for a guitar
And another four of them lines
I need something profound
And ever deep
A place I can rest
In endless sleep
The sun rises then melts away
The rooms are bare and the groud cold as clay
