Five Shades Of Black by Ed E
He wore five Shades of Black
wore Shadows on his sleeve
you're never sure when he'll stand up
and hand you grief
his friends knew him as Angus
I called him Alex all the same
he was on edge underneath his skin
he unzipped his sweatshirt - he just couldn't wait
he wore five Shades of Black
just trying to blend in
he didn't want violence
but that's a real thin dream
he always thought he'd be accepted
he thought he always have a place to go
always thought he'd have a way to get there oh yeah
but there's what you think and what you can never know
he wore five Shades black
wore Shadows on his sleeve
he's weary restless ghost
he's thirsty he's a beast
5 Shades of Black - 5 Shades of Black

Gasoline and Matches by Buddy n' Julie Miller (as performed on Ed's Real Thin Dream CD)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, listen what I say
Baby, baby, baby, baby, let me have my way
I'm gonna keep on knockin' till the door unlatches
You and me are gasoline and matches
Baby, baby, baby, baby, when it's cold and dark
Baby, baby, baby, baby, you make me feel a spark
Well I feel a spark and the fire catches
You and me are gasoline and matches
You pull my pin and you trip my wire
Yeah well you come in and set my heart on fire
You knock me out, you rock me off my axis
You and me are gasoline and matches
Baby, baby, baby, baby, when you make your move
Baby, baby, baby, baby, I can feel your groove
The resistance of a strong-willed man's in ashes
You and me are gasoline and matches
Oh you pull my pin and you trip my wire
Yeah well you come in and set my heart on fire
You knock me out, you rock me off my axis
You and me You and me
Baby I'm incarcerated and I don't want out
Baby we should get related
'cause there ain't no doubt
Yeah but when your heart and my heart attaches
You and me are Gasoline and Matches
You and me are Gasoline and Matches
You and me are Gasoline and Matches

How Do I Love by Ed Englerth
How do I love the preacher
How do I love the politician
How do I love the billionaire
How do I love without conditions
How do I love the homeless
How do I love the drunks
How do I love the fearful
How do I love instead of run
//: how do I love ://
How do I love my family
How do I love those that live next door
How do I love the environmentalist
How do I love without keeping score
//: how do I love ://
How do I love the vegan
How do I love the Hunter
How do I love the traffic cop
How do I love the banker
How do I love the jaded
How do I love the innocent young
How do I love the intellectual
How do I love the ones I'd rather shun
//: how do I love ://
How do I love myself
How do I love the light
That reveals my Wicked Ways
And all of my denials
//: how do I love ://. Hey hey
//: how do I love ://

I Wonder 'Bout This World by Ed Englerth
I hear drums beating out the tempo
there’s no direction just go go go
There ain’t no questions n’ there’s fewer answers
there’s only movement with a sense of danger
I wonder ’bout this world
I’m actuated, my heart’s a flame
the music may stop but the dance remains
The walls all fall, we just keep on
till the dust settles and times finally gone
I wonder ’bout this
Love beyond reason, beyond the wisdom of man
why God still cares, I don’t understand
I wonder ’bout this world –
I wonder ’bout this world –
I wonder
(Lyric by Ed Englerth, Music by Ed Englerth - Dave Dawdy - Jeff Sipe)

Mr. Warrin by Ed Englerth
Mr Warrin finds no quiet place
Inside of his house
He walks with bloodshot eyes
All his thought are upside down
Mr Warrin is disoriented
He’s sad and tries to frown
It comes out as a smile
And all his words are mispronounced
* He doesn’t understand
How he got here
He doesn’t understand
How to leave
Mr Warrin is held captive
By his own gravity
His intentions are misunderstood
All his thoughts are scattered
His got a fever & it makes him chilled
He can not find the cure
* He doesn’t understand
How he got here
He doesn’t understand
How to leave
Mr. Warrin is held captive
By his own gravity
Mr. Warrin’s been around the world
Someone always pays the way
He always carries baggage
That he never claims
* He doesn’t understand
How he got here
He doesn’t understand
How to leave
Mr. Warrin is held captive
By his own gravity

Flesh and Blood by Steve Scott (as performed by Ed Englerth on Real Thin Dream CD)
He weren’t no universal principal
He weren’t no universal mind
He weren’t no new romantic
Snowing us that love is blind
He never told us that he was invincible
He never sold us on his X-ray eyes
He didn’t come on like an extraterrestrial
Hanging out in human disguise
He was flesh and blood
He weren’t no phantom
He was flesh and blood
He weren’t no ghost
Never came on like a 3- D hologram
Got up hungry and he went down tired
He got the anger – he got the sorrow
He weren’t a mannequin that moved on wires
He never blinded us with party tricks
Or strung us out on some astral fix
He weren’t no voodoo child
Or “gentle Jesus meek and mild”
He was flesh and blood
He weren’t no phantom
He was flesh and blood
He weren’t no ghost
(musical interlude)
He weren’t no universal principal
He weren’t no universal mind
He weren’t no new romantic
Snowing us that love is blind
He never blinded us with party tricks
Or strung us out on some astral fix
He weren’t no voodoo child
Or “gentle Jesus meek and mild”
He was flesh and blood
He weren’t no phantom
He was flesh and blood
He weren’t no ghost
//: Flesh and Blood :// 4x
He weren’t no ghost
