Goin' to get my rifle
Set my sights upon you
You ain't my disciple
On this we must agree
Trains keep on passin'
I can't hear you prayin'
The next life's everlastin'
But this one is for me
Yeah, the next life's everlastin'
But this one is for me
HA!
Goin' to get my pack now
I gotta hop this train now
Run 'cross county lines
No you ain't goin' to find me
Wheels keep on rollin'
I can't hear you callin'
The next train will be comin'
But this one is for me
Yeah the next train will be comin'
But this one is for me
HA!
Go on and cut my pride now
Got nothin' left to hide
No, you ain't my lord now
And never shall you be
Life keeps drummin'
I can't hear you dyin'
The next life will be comin'
But this one is for me
Yeah, the next life will be comin'
But this one is for me
HA!
Go on and get salvation
If that's your motivation
The next life's everlastin'
But this one is for me
The next life's everlastin'
But this one is for me
HA!
The next life's everlastin'
But this one is for me
Yeah, the next life's everlastin'
But this one is for me
HA!

Free

Far on my raft I sail
Storms will surely lie before me
Blown along by all my fantasies
And everything I dreamed of as a child
I sail silently away
I know the stars above will guide me
Pray the dark of night will hide me
So I can live to rhyme another day
And I’ll never go back now
Knowing the world that surrounds me
All my regrets sink away from me
I’m free now, I’m free, yes I’m free
Don’t you try to understand me
No, I have nothing left to run from
You may feel better on the shoreline
But I can feel it drifting from my mind
And I’ll never go back now
Knowing the world that surrounds me
All my regrets sink away from me
I’m free now, I’m free, yes I’m free
I stare deeply ever forward
Never reaching the horizon
I've cut every tie that held me
Now I belong to the sea
And I’ll never go back now
Knowing the world that surrounds me
All my regrets sink away from me
I’m free now, I’m free, yes I’m free
No I’ll never go back now
Knowing the world that surrounds me
All my regrets sink away from me
I’m free now, I’m free, yes I’m free
I’m free now, I’m free, yes I’m free

Dark

When I close my eyes
And I whisper to the spirit standing over me
Didn’t realize
There was something really different coming over me
There’s no one here
As I fall to you again
When I feel you near
All my fears
Begin to rain
And it’s turning
Dark
Dark
Dark
When we come apart
It’s just so dark
In here is only fear
Like tears rolling down
Like rain they’re rolling down
They drown, they drown
There will be a first time
When you feel there is someone watching over you
It’ll be the last time
When you think the Universe has gotten over you
I’m always here
As you fall to me again
When you feel me near
All your fears
Begin to rain

Shadows & Lights

I don’t like being afraid of you
But I see you better than the rest
I hear all of the words you say
And I feel like I’m put to the test
The things that you are afraid to say
You showed me when you made me look a fool
Well, it’s lies that hurt all the time, my love
The truth will only hurt once
Cause in a world full of lies
Where most tears will end in goodbyes
The truth is my only disguise
Just look in my eyes
It’s all shadows and lights
Your shadows once were a thrill to me
But everything comes with a price
You said that we were never meant to be
But I felt like throwing the dice
The day when it all went awry for me
Was the day that you promised woud come
The one thing that we could not foresee
Was the place where the truth would come from
Don’t look away as the rising sun
Comes up inside of you
And your shadows melt away
Don’t you know that the water’s rushing up
Just to wash it all away
So don’t look away
Now I know I don’t need to be afraid of you
My heart still knows love the best
And inside all of the lies you told
The truth was coming to rest

High On The Water
03:07

High on the water
So high on the water
How high on the water
Sail away, sail away
Lightning storms on the water
Where the ships, once sailed
Still live down there
Where the sun can barely see
Tattered sails all drift away
Like distant dreams fade in the day
On the shores of make believe
Sailing high on the water
So high on the water
How high on the water
Sail away
Thunder rolls on the open seas
My heart, once drowned, still sits down there
Where the soul can barely breathe
Buried lies all gasp for air
And stir things up I left down there
As the waves are crashing in
Cause maybe it’s nothing at all
I can drown and answer the call
In the night and the shadows of the day
It’s all the same. It’s all the same

Small Things
03:55

Where do you go?
Where do you go when I call you?
How would you know?
How would you know when I fall for you?
Time tears away
all the small things that were all in vain
Can't be afraid. I can let go.
I held on too long
'Cause now, we're lost in a whole 'nother story
So why do we spend all our lives chasing shallow dreams
And it seems like forever we held it together
Till it all falls down
In the end it was all small things
I wish I could say…
Wish I could say how I loved you
But time doesn't wait.
Time just goes passing by fools like me
I wish I could write
I'd write us a whole different chapter
But what('d) be the point.
It's lost to the past
We're just looking back
I just want it to be real.
I feel like I'm just writing fiction
Just don't look away.
We could wake up and it's all a dream

Turn Around
03:47
|

|
I've got my seven rays to heaven
And seven ways to hell
But that's a road I only know too well
Cause after all my good intentions
To answer all the questions
I didn't see it coming when I fell
Wandering through confusion
Has shattered my illusions apart
And torn me down
And it's all breaking apart
Back to the start and turn around
And turn around
So now I turn to face my demons
Those things that I belived in
They disappeard when I turned on the light
Finally let go of my pretension
Of all my misconceptions
Cause yesterday I broke through heaven's door
Forevermore

Saying Goodbye
03:37
|
|||
|
Out of the last one
Into the next
And I’m in love again
Back in the motion,
Though I can’t drive.
Right, I should’ve left
Out of the costume
I’m wearing you
I’m in trouble still
Back in your life
Not really here
So I’m saying goodbye
Saying goodbye
It won’t be the first
It won’t be the last
It won’t be the worst
I’ll do it so fast
Push on the gas
Watch me go past
As I’m saying goodbye
Saying goodbye
Yes, I’m saying goodbye
Out of my head
Back in your bed
I’m shivering again
Back in your arms
Is in the past
Today’s ‘nother day.
Out of my skin
I’m in too deep
Well is running dry
Reach out your hand
I’m drifting away
And I’m saying goodbye
Saying goodbye

Mama
04:53
|

|
I looked for a way
I wanted to say
But it's like foreign words to me
There will come a day
When I will break my silence
Live up to my conscience
Then mama, I'll turn to you and ask
where have you gone on to, alas
Will I ever hear your voice in this world?
So I turn my head
Cause it could never be said
What stolen dreams I had
I give back to you
There's still some sorrow
Closure I'd borrow
But mama, you knew what I could be
There's so much that only you could see
Will I ever hear your voice in this world?
No, no, no, no, no, please no.
No, no, no, no, no, please no.
Cause everyone stumbles
But only I'd crumble
Nobody was there to bring me back
Where were you then?
So I cry to the walls
No one answers my calls
But mama, you're always in my heart
When the whole world has fallen apart
Will I ever hear your voice in this world?
No, no, no, no, no, please no.
No, no, no, no, no, please no.
Will I ever hear your voice again?

Wild Junkie Dream
04:27

I’m waking up to my wild junkie dream
You won’t believe all the things I did see
How could you?
But they were true
Daylight for you was a nightmare for me
All my bad dreams were just your fantasy
You pulled my strings
So easily
Oooh.... It’s too late. Sealed my fate
I spend my daze in my wild junkie dream
Don’t you pretend you don’t know what I mean
Cuz you were there
Let’s be fair
You looked at me, but your face was all wrong
Your body was here, but your heart and your soul
Were long gone.
What have I done?
Oooh…. It’s too late. Sealed my fate
When the daylight fades you can see everything
All the lies that shine within
After all these years without a doubt
That’s what we’re living in
And the only way to keep it out
Is never to breathe in
I’m dozing off to my wild junkie dream
You don’t remember where to begin
You can stay
Or show the way.
Oooh… It’s too late. Sealed my fate.
Oooh… It’s too late. Half past eight

Not Two
03:31

In the moonlight we were walking
And the stars were out and talking
In the moment light is fading
Not you
Every breath that we have taken
In the morning we awaken
Every moment
One was not two
No illusions, no mistaking
Every moment we are making is true
In the sunlight we were dancing
And the clouds were out romancing
I don't need to be shaded from you

Non Duo Los Angeles, California
Strangely divergent musical influences — gypsy/russian & cajun/rock — mix into an eclectic stew of styles. Marina Gutman is
from Moldova. Paul McCarty is from New Orleans.
They embrace the differences, as their life stories and world views mix into a wild, poetic, non-dualistic brew of lyrics. Always a distinct and memorable melody, and enchanting harmonies.
