“This album is quite different from the elegantly busy past arrangements of The J. Arthur Keenes Band, but this album is equally as impressive. It keeps things restrained when it needs to, but isn't afraid to present the listener with wonderfully full sounds. Simply amazing.”

Please not another chance at absolution
put me on the waitlist to the institution
'Cause I can feel the monsters climbing back under
Please not another chance at retribution
put me under, put me in some deep confusion
'Cause I can feel the monsters climbing back under
But I can feel the monsters climbing back under - Track Name: Okay

Okay, I talked to you all day
the things some people say
I wish you'd go away
Find somewhere else to stay
Okay, I threw my phone away
and learned where not to lay
you just won't stow away
I have to pay and pay
Is this some fantasy of yours?
Always knocking at my doors
I've got things to do I swear
I have to wallow in despair
I have to shave off all my hair
Okay, I talked to you all day
the things some people say
I wish you'd go away
Find somewhere else to stay
and never meet my day
Okay, I read you loud and clear
Okay, this road is ending near
Someday, I will forget my fear
Someday, it could take years and years
Okay, I'll be the hand that steers
Away, I'm smiling ear to ear
Someday, I will forget my fear
Someday, I will get out of here - Track Name: Southern Accent

Last night's squabbles
are hanging in the air
I'm trying not to care, but I just can't
Stop objecting,
'cause every interjection
brings you closer to rejection and disgrace
Just give me something I can take in my hands
Just give me something I can feel and understand
After hours, I'm sifting through my day
I picked out every mistake that I made
I tried talking, but every word I spoke came out like it was from the script of the tirade
I can't help it if everywhere I walk
I'm stepping onto somebody's fingers
Just give me something I can take in my hands
Just give me something without question or demand
Just give me something I can take in my hands
Just give me something I can feel and understand - Track Name: Channel Two

On your own now, maybe
closet filled with hanging ladies
but they're all too slow
On your own now, baby
transported somewhere else lately
someplace where the earthquakes glow
But you don't own me
my television does
and it's not governed by your laws
On Channel Two
do, do do do do do, do, do, do, do
To the bone now, baby
don't hold back and act all shaky
it won't help you now
But hold the phone now, baby
I thought life wasn't worth evading
it just comes back to hunt you down
But you don't own me
my television does
and it's not governed by your laws
On Channel Two
do, do do do do do, do, do, do, do - Track Name: Trying Not to Hide

And then it's torn up,
taken from my insides
taken for a ride
I'm somewhere on the tundra,
trying not to hide
We're waking up at midnight
and wasting all our time
I'm somewhere in the ether,
trying not to hide
Ooooohh, oh, oh ooooh ohhh
We're waking up in cold sweats
and breaking out in hives
I'm somewhere in my own head,
trying not to hide
