Keep Rolling On

I remember thinking about all the things that I would do
It's funny how quickly that boy became you
Sitting here drinking away all the things that I'd have done
While the moments slip away and another one comes
And the years keep rolling on keep rolling on like a beating drum
They dont blink an eye or go back for anyone
and the weirdest part of growing old is still feeling so young
While the years keep rolling on keep rolling on keep rolling on
I rememeber understanding I don't understand it all
But knowing its all going somewhere and I'm part of that force
These days my heart say you dont know nothing at all
while the moments fall away and another one falls
And the years keep rolling on keep rolling on like a beating drum
They dont blink an eye or slow down for anyone
and the weirdest part of growing old is still feeling so young
While the years keep rolling on keep rolling on keep rolling on

Oh Christina,
My heart is in it,
is yours
I can't tell anymore
You shut all the windows you shut all the doors
and the cracks in the ceiling they're mine and they're yours
and the the water is are rising there's no where to hide
like a lighthouse but when did we shut off the lights
the wheels are still spinning the wood is still warm
Theres a hole in the floor that we never saw
Oh Christina, my heart is in it
is yours, I can't tell anymore
Oh Christina, are we beginning to fall
I can't tell anymore
These black in white halls and all of these walls
and the shadows they're throwing remind me of yours
as you're tiptoeing in and out of my heart
Like you know it but you just don't know where to start
and the wheels are still spinning the wood is still warm
but these holes in the floor just wont hold us no more
Oh Christina, my heart is in it
is yours, I can't tell anymore
Oh Christina, are we beginning to fall
I can never be sure
I can't tell anymore

The Climb, the Fall

Miley, I can understand why
you'd wanna be somebody else for awhile
you've been so many people for so many years
All things ruin, crack and mold
new things grow then we call them old
But we're all looking for a lie that we can share
Did you feel the limelight
Slipping away from your hold
Did you feel the darkness sinking into your soul
Glowing isn't easy and nobody wants
To feel forgotten, to be forgot
Amy died running through the night
Trying to hide from the quiet inside
But you never can, you never will, it's yours
Takes it's toll all that rock n roll
It takes another little piece of your heart and soul
But we're all climb but not the fall
Did you feel the limelight
Slipping away from your hold
Did you feel the darkness sinking into your soul
Glowing isn't easy and nobody wants
To feel forgotten, to be forgot
Can you see the names
in the flickering lights they're gonna fade
Cos' we are all the same
With the voices in our heads lingering
We just want to be
Someone somebody else wants to be
Did you believe Hollywood was gonna set you free
Did you feel the limelight
Slipping away from your hold
Did you feel the darkness sinking down into your soul
Glowing isn't easy and nobody wants
To feel forgotten, to be forgot

Like a River to the Sea

All the years
Roll together
Like the beat of a drum
Like the beating drum
All the waters
Run together
Like the rain falling free
Like the river to the sea
And we run, like a river to sea
All the years
Fold together
Like the turning of a page
Like a slow turning page
Hold onto nothing
But for your love
It will come undone
It's all coming undone
And we run, like a river to sea
Yeah we run like a river to sea
Where my heart will be free

In The Trials and Tribulations of Adam and His Seed, Thompson turns his attention to everything from biblical themes to politics and privilege and the bittersweet nostalgia of fairy tales in a world of modern anxiety. It may have taken five years to carve out the work within, but Thompson’s expansive, philosophical album has been set free right on time. ... more
