The Parmesans​/​Sledding With Tigers Split

I’ve been running from something that’s kept walking And now I’m starting to lose my pace But I’ll keep running Even though it don’t mean nothing But at this point I’m just saving face And I swear I don’t need your saving grace but I'll probably never say it to your face But now I’m walking And you’ll just keep on sitting Until I find my way back to you

If you're too selfish to give up the words you use that hurt the people you love, well don't be surprised when I stop calling you my friend.

Written by June Carter Cash and Merle Kilgore

Hold steady, hold fast Not all good things last. Hopes and dreams: Half-hearted, Friends and lovers only parted. A simple man has simple needs, Just a fountain pen and coffee beans. A friend or three to keep the beat, An ice-cold drink to beat the heat. (Because we were the) First ones up, first ones at 'em We had priority like Eve and Adam, But even God don't know, what took them so long. Guess they had to see for themselves. You were my sweet, my only one, I took a ferry to your sugar plum. Now the dock's gone burning, Ignited from our turning. Simple times meet simple ends. On what grounds now that depends. Its a mystery for some I'm sure, Til' they're walking out your door. ('Cause they're the) First ones up, first ones at 'em, The first to claim to sing the "Human Anthem" But even they don't know what's taking so long. Guess they'll have to see for themselves. ('Cause you're the) First one up, the first one at 'em. The first in line but the last to dine, Even you don't know what's taking so long. Guess you'll have to see for yourself.

Verse 1 I'm so busy always tryin' to to do right (tryin' to do right) Tryin' to do right But somewhere I went wrong The same thing happens to me every night (every night) Every night As I go walk alone I tilt my head look up and howl at the moon Howl at the moon and hope it's over soon Chorus All this time I had it down But now, I've hit the ground The beast inside my head is gettin' loud My soul is cryin' out My mouth is dry and cannot make a sound My time is runnin' out It's so regrettable But unforgettable This feeling in my bones In my bones, in my bones, in my bones. Verse 2 The sun is hot the street is burnin' my feet (burnin' my feet) Burnin' my feet What's happening to me My head it aches and I can barely see (barely see) Barely see I'm sick of this disease That old familiar cold delirious dream (delirious dream) Delirious dream Delirious dream
6.
Alive but barely sometimes I know the reasons And I continue to find Some meaning In a life that I hate In a world that I cannot change I'm bored almost all of the time And I know the reasons But I'm to lazy to try Changing For a world that steals my pride In a way that I can't deny And the heinous pit of death calls my name And I heed it's call To a world that I hate To a life that I cannot change For a world that steals my pride In a way that I can't deny

about

We are so lucky to be able to release this split with or friends, The Parmesans. We both recorded these songs on various cassette recorders, and I think they sound wonderful.
