Bridge Burner

I burned every burned bridge
On the way to the bank
But the bank was closed
I burned every bridge
On the way to the bank
But the bank was closed
I burned every bridge
On the way to the funeral
But they locked me out
I dug every ditch
On the way to the bank
But they filled it in

Machine never ends
You hinted before
Hawks up in the sky
Letters from abroad
Time to take a break
Like you told me before
You said it doesn’t matter
Pretend it doesn’t matter
Family matters, families matter
In my own home
We’ll die from laughter, die from laughter
In the biodome
Time to take a break again
Like you told me before
You said it doesn’t matter
Pretend it doesn’t matter
Family matters, families matter
In my own home
We’ll die from laughter, die from laughter
In the biodome
Family matters, families matter
In my own home
We’ll die from laughter, die from laughter
In the biodome

I'm Not Cursed
02:33
|

Seems so crystal clear
That’s what I like to hear
Excommunicate
I’d rather sleep in late
I don’t wanna change
I don’t want to be cursed
I don’t wanna fail
I don’t want to be cursed
Oh, no—again
Doggone it be gone
I saw a Gideon
She left a lickity-split
Before she threw a fit
I don’t wanna change
I don’t want to be cursed
I don’t wanna fail
I don’t want to be cursed
Oh, no—again
I don’t wanna change
I don’t want to be cursed
I don’t wanna fail
I don’t want to be cursed
I don’t wanna change
I don’t want to be cursed
I don’t wanna fail
Oh, no—again

Meet You Where You Are

A little house
A little yard
A Little dog
Am I a slob?
A little town
Act of god
An oil rig
Am I a fraud?
Pretend who you are
I’ll pretend too
I’ll meet you where you are
And you’ll subdue
Piggyback
Ponyboy
Pony keg
Self-employ
Squeeze me in
Now let me go
Fight me back
Jericho
Pretend who you are
I’ll pretend too
I’ll meet you where you are
And you’ll subdue
Pretend who you are
I’ll pretend too
I’ll meet you where you are
And you’ll subdue

Hallucination got me whole
Fellow implication
All my relationships
Social isolation
Legs are running in place but I’m
Stuck to the ground
Potential harms and benefits all
Seem so profound
Coz I all I do is walk in the park
And I don’t even claim to be smart
Coz all I do is walk in park
And I don’t even claim to be smart
Hesitation wounds
Down on Ormond Beach
Separation blues
Down on Ormond Beach
Traffic’s got me humming
Fellow duplication
Static’s got me chomping the bit
Anticipation
My legs got me running in place but I’m
Stuck to the floor
Benefits in harms
I’m calmly in doors
Coz all I do is walk in the park
And I don’t even know where to start
Coz all I do is walk in the park
And I don’t even know where to start
Hesitation wounds
Down on Ormond Beach
Separation blues
Down on Ormond Beach
Hesitation wounds
Down on Ormond Beach
Separation blues
Down on Ormond Beach

Trouble Again
03:02
|

|
Feeding on the wildlife spreading tonight
Caught from the fool of the vector of snakebite
Last of the pennies in the bed of the bullfight
Wince at the cure at the site of the brake light
Coz I’m in trouble again
I’m in trouble again – mama
Stranded in the corner just me and the oak tree
Take it all for granted with a bucket of chickpeas
Lighting on the panel on the way to the marquee
Nothing else predicted but the thought of the unseen
Coz I’m in trouble again
I’m in trouble again – mama
Coz I’m in trouble again
I’m in trouble again – mama

The Outside
03:42
|

|
Don’t put that in my blood
But I’ll smoke it up
Keep that away from me
I tend to give a fuck
In my backwards hat
Called out the scandal
Spit out my front two teeth
Too much to handle
I’ll run my factory from the inside
I’ll skip the payroll, from the outside
I’m on the outside
I’m bringing potluck
Beans and cornbread
I’m always late to lunch
I pushed the clock I did
Kicked up my swollen feet
Fixed up my head rest
Turn on my t-ball
Then figured out the rest
I’ll run my factory from the inside
I’ll skip the payroll, from the outside
I’m on the outside
I'm on the outside
You’re on the outside
We’re on the outside

Hello Mold

Hello, world
I liken it to the parlor
I liken it to the Broadway
I liken it to the faultline
Consider me bothered
Hello boy
Not lookin’ so clean
Haven’t even eaten a thing
I’ll ask what I need to ask
Don’t mind if you wear a mask
Consider me bothered
Consider me bothered
Consider me

Milkman

Try to find it another way
I don’t mind if your mother bakes
Imagination is another state
I know
Stay at home with the milkman
Stay at home cuz it’s fun
Staying home I’m your milkman
Losing sleep ‘till we’re done
Stay at home with the milkman
Play at home cuz it’s fun
Staying home with your milkman
Losing sleep ‘till we’re done
I don’t mind it’s another day
Home again and the boredom weighs
Pretty woman you don’t have to behave
Pretty woman we don’t have to behave
I know
Stay at home with the milkman
Take it off coz it’s fun
Staying home I’m your milkman
Losing sleep ‘till we’re done
Stay at home with the milkman
Take it off coz it’s fun
Deliverin’ love I’m your milk man
Losing sleep ‘till we’re done
Stay at home with the milkman
Take it off coz it’s fun
Staying home I’m your milkman
Losing sleep ‘till we’re done
Stay at home with the milkman
Take it off coz it’s fun
Deliverin’ love I’m your milk man
Losing sleep ‘till we’re done

Piece of Heart is Home
03:20

Complain with us
We always give it away
Internally, there’s not much more we can say
I feel
That the topic of your health is a blur
I feel
As superficial as it is pure
Rest with us
A piece of heart is always home
Come stay with us
Our home is where we behave
Maternally, there’s so many places to play
I feel
That the topic of your health is a blur
I feel
As superficial as it is pure
Rest with us
A piece of heart is always home
I feel
I feel
Rest with us
A piece of heart is always home

Longest Day of the Year
04:42

The longest day of the year
The longest thought of the year
My longest walk of the year
The longest walk of the year
There was a rainbow
And the clouds were out
Then I sat by myself
Couldn’t figure it out
There was no rainbow
But the clouds were out
Couldn’t decide myself
So I figured it out
And I’m at the back of the line (back again)
And I’m at the back of line (back again)
And we’re at the back of line (back again)
And we’re at the back of line (back again)
The longest day of the year (we’ll wait)
The longest day of the year (we’ll wait)
The longest day of the year (I’ll wait)
The longest day of the year (I’ll wait)
There was a rainbow
And the clouds were out
Then I sat by myself
Couldn’t figure it out
There was no rainbow
But the clouds were out
Couldn’t decide myself
So I figured it out
And I’m at the back of the line (back again)
And I’m at the back of line (back again)
And we’re at the back of line (back again)
And we’re at the back of line (back again)
And I’m at the back of the line (back again)
And I’m at the back of line (back again)
And we’re at the back of line (back again)
And we’re at the back of line (back again)
I'll wait

High Low
03:34
|

Things I overheard
The promise that life is sure
Things I overcame
As I walked right through the flame
Things I overheard
The whisper that life’s so hard
Things I overcame
As I walked through the diamond pane
High low
Sweet and low
I know
Swing low
Things I overheard
I promise the things I’m told
Things I overcame
As I fell into the marigold
Things I overheard
Those things I needed to see
Things I overcame
From the lack of the vitamin D
High low
Sweet and low
I know
Swing low
From the basement of my mobile home
Doesn’t matter just how far I go
From the basement of your second home
Doesn’t matter just how far you go
High low
Sweet and low
I know
Swing low

LEWIS Los Angeles, California
Band from Los Angeles, CA
LEWIS’ “Growing Pains” is a refreshing take on indie rock, no laptop productions,
or programmed beats, but songs with lyrics as seen through eyes of former punker Chris Lewis, and entertaining unexpected twists. “Growing Pains” would be on the dreamy side of indie rock, with a heavy dose of 1990s flavor.
