    PLAYLIST TIME:

    The Band

    by: Red Wanting Blue

    If you say you're the ring finger on my stone
    Well I say I'm a kite with a key
    If you say that you are unsure of things
    Well I'm not accepting defeat
    Are we strong enough
    Is it good enough
    Am I brave enough
    For the both of us
    I will sing you songs
    Even though you can't put 'em on your finger
    I'll never be a diamond mine, I'm just a singer
    I will sing you songs
    Wishing my words carried on as long as a stone
    On a band of gold
    You're sleepwalking through the daylight
    How else am I supposed to follow a dream
    And now you say I can't wait on you to connect these hands
    But I'm still trying to reach
    So are we strong enough
    Is it good enough
    You pray hard enough
    For the both of us
    I will sing you songs
    Even though you can't put 'em on your finger
    I'll never be a diamond mine, I'm just a singer
    I will sing you songs
    Wishing my words carried on as long as a stone
    On a band of gold
    'Cause I'm just a rolling stone in a band on the road
    I know words don't mean
    Much on their own
    But what I sing to you
    Is worth more than a stone
    I will sing you songs
    Even though you can't put 'em on your finger
    I'll never be a diamond mine, I'm just a singer
    I will sing you songs
    Wishing my words carried on as long as a stone
    On a band of gold
    'Cause I'm just a rolling stone in a band on the road
    You said you want a stone
    On a band of gold
    What you got is a rolling stone
    In a band on the road
    Yeah I'm just a rolling stone in a band on the road
    I haven't seen the sun in days
    Man, it's getting to me
    Well that's our industry
    I lost my happy thoughts
    Caught up in a tree
    Flying's harder for me now
    And kiss my ass you dream
    I hope you're hearing me
    No one's bet on you quite like I did
    It's taken everything I've got
    To keep myself on the road
    I don't wanna drive no more
    I am a stubborn bull
    I am a caveman
    A cheap tattoo
    Gone from black to blue
    So I don't wanna hear it from you
    Never gonna be a spaceman
    Sitting on my tin can
    Never come back
    I spend my afternoons
    Making masterpieces
    People would later understand
    Well damn you wishing well
    You should've told me
    I bought dreams you wouldn't sell
    It's taken everything I've god
    To keep my hands from my face
    I don't wanna cry no more
    I found dangers in
    Acting out
    Dreams never meant
    To be carried out
    Oh, but I am the stubborn bull
    Yeah, I am a caveman
    A cheap tattoo
    Fading from black to blue
    So I don't wanna hear it from you
