"Someone To Follow" lyrics
"Someone To Follow"
When I look in the glass, I can see you there
I can see you around my eyes
So I'll follow the stars in the eastern sky
Coloring the horizon
With the moon in your teeth like a piece of cheese
It's crumbling everywhere
And you're gathering kindling and blackberries
You send up your gilded flare
I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
On the night you were born, I cradled you
I held you in my arms
And with every planet in Capricorn
I knew you'd sound the alarm
Always fighting the good fight, baby
You're picking up whoever's down
And you're giving them words for their weaponry
You wear the mother of exile's crown
I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
You're gonna make it
I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
You're gonna make it
You're gonna make it

Madi Diaz - "Resentment" I feel loved on and I feel used
Nobody makes me feel the way you do
And sometimes I just can't stand it
Isn't that just the thing about us
I'm still thinking you could be the one
But you're always...
Courtney Marie Andrews - "Irene" Farewell, Irene
Where your dreams are bound, I just can't tell
But we both know, Irene
They won't come true at the bottom of a well
Gain some confidence, Irene

Ira Wolf - "Ruby" Ruby
She was made for going West
Did not protest my wandering ways
Ruby
She was pretty as they come
28 years young and unafraid
She gave me shelter on the coldest nights
Shaded me on summer days
And...

Who's gonna hold you, dear?
Who's gonna kiss ya?
Who's gonna love you, dear?
Who's gonna miss ya?
So long, my Annie, I'm gone
For a year and a day
To be rollin' around and wandering...
