Badlands
Antigone Rising\True Joy Camps, Henderson, McKenna
You are badlands, South Dakota
you are beach sand, near the border
I am stranded at the crossroads, staring up at the moon wishing I could get to you
You are morning light on a white sheet You are a whisper spoken just to me And I am drifting, maybe I had a few
If I lose myself, don't be surprised
I've been waiting a long time, long time Wishing I could get to you
I keep a picture of you on the fire escape Tossing confetti onto a street parade
We are weightless above the avenue
BRIDGE
Don't be so restless now, I'm on my way

It!s Gonna Be Alright (Hey Hey) Antigone Rising\True Joy Camps, C. Henderson
Hey Hey
It!s gonna be alright
You!re walking around saying where is my true joy? Where is my true joy now?
You!re walking around saying where is my true joy? Where is my true joy now?
But the one place you wont look Is that little corner in your heart That!s been broken real good
Hey Hey
It!s gonna be alright
The deep down dirt is gonna kill you dead, gonna kill you dead somehow The deep down dirt is gonna kill you dead, gonna kill you dead somehow Life never goes as planned
But there can be hope and good
Right where you stand
Hey Hey
It!s gonna be alright
The things that heal your heart and soul take time Don!t let your thoughts run away with your mind It!s gonna be alright
You're rusted and weary stuck in the deep blue, stuck in the deep blue You're rusted and weary stuck in the deep blue, stuck in the deep blue There's a healing that will transform
There is mercy in love
Let it bring you home

Avalanche
Antigone Rising\True Joy
Camps, Kellogg
In a town that looks like yours, on a street that looks like mine
“Kids will just be kids” when they!re cruel and they!re unkind
It happens every day and we just let it slide
“Kids will just be kids” ain't enough for me this time
This is gonna be an avalanche
When the hammer falls down you better know where you want to stand
Cuz saying nothing at all is gonna send a message i don!t want to send
Yeah this is gonna be an avalanche
We watch it on the news as the story starts to break
A teenage kid entitled to take what he could take
We victimize the victim till she no longer has a face
Call it what you will, but to me it!s a disgrace
This is gonna be an avalanche
When the hammer falls down you better know where you want to stand
Cuz saying nothing at all is gonna send a message i don't want to send
Yeah this is gonna be an avalanche
Sometimes it takes a minute to feel your feet below
The ground under you shaking and you've been dealt an awful blow
But the sound of your own courage is a bellow soft and slow
And this is where it starts, here is where it grows
Bridge
20 sticks of dynamite
Each one minute of her life
Lighting up what!s wrong and right
Watch it slide, watch it slide

Right There With You

Right There With You Antigone Rising/True Joy Camps, Kellogg
When you’re lost, worn out and weary
And this life weighs you down like a stone There’s no stars to guide you and no-one to hold but there in the darkness, you’re not alone
Where there is pain, there you will find me Where there is love, i’ll be there too
I will be right there with you
When grace she feels like a memory
An embrace that has long left you cold
And it’s hard to remember the faith you have known the one thing that I know is you’re not alone
Where there is pain, there you will find me Where there is love, i’ll be there too
I will be right there with you
There are times you can’t help but falter When the crown is too heavy to hold When your spirit has ceased to be hopeful You will be carried, you’re not alone
Where there is pain, there you will find me
Where there is love, i’ll be there too
When you’re searching for peace, when you’re down on your knees I will be right there with you

Poor Poor Pitiful Me

Well I lay my head on the railroad track
Waiting on the Double E
But the train don't run by here no more
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Oh, these boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe, woe is me
Well I met a man out in Hollywood
Now, I ain't naming names
Well he really worked me over good
Just like Jesse James
Yes he really worked me over good
He was a credit to his gender
Put me through some changes, Lord
Sort of like a Waring blender
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Oh these boys won't let me be
Lord, have mercy on me
Woe, woe is me
Well, I met a boy in the Vieux Carres
Down in Yokohama
He picked me up and he threw me down
He said "Please don't hurt me Mama"
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Oh these boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Poor poor poor me
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor poor me
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor poor me
Poor poor pitiful me

Switchlande
Antigone Rising/True Joy Camps, Pacifico, K Henderson
Spinning alone watching the door for
Anything to hit the spring, pull me out, to pull me in Tattooed on me the pain of wanting everything Make it stop, cut me in or cut me off
I’m a bullet in a barrel babe
I pull the trigger for the hell of it Cuz baby i’m addicted
I’m dancing on a switch blade I’m a repeat offender
The sirens telling me surrender Bouncing like a ricochet
I’m dancing on a switch blade
A smile, a quick lie watch me, as I
Use a mask, hide the grief, pat me down, i’m a thief One last one more a slip a score
Double down chase the high fire burnin in my eyes
Bridge
I’ve been here before no one wants to wage the same old war no matter what i say one last taste is all i’m good for

Well, I'm a-running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind
Four that wanna own me
Two that wanna stone me
One says she's a friend of mine
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy
Well, I'm a-standing on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord
In a flat-bed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby
Don't say "Maybe"
I gotta know
If your sweet love
Is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win
Though we will never be here again
So open up, I'm climbin' in
So take it easy
Well, I'm running down the road
Trying to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover
Who won't blow my cover
She's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy
Come on, baby
Don't say "Maybe"
I gotta know
If your sweet love
Is gonna save me
Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy
