    Lathe cut vinyl. Old school. One at a time. By Jon at Austin Signal.

    It's a dream to have my album on vinyl! I'd love to send you one of the first 7 copies, and as of now the only 7 in existence. (One is mine. One is my co-producer Dale's.)

    Once these are gone, the vinyl will only be available directly from Austin Signal. Read here about lathe cut vinyl and why it's more expensive than a standard pressed vinyl. austinsignal.com/vod-store-listing

The very walls that kept you safe As a kid in the house where you were raised They'll turn into a cage Keep you locked inside Fearful of the day There's nothing left but the leaving Can't you see you're on borrowed time? Looking out, tell me what it is you're dreaming Love waits for you on the other side I know it's hard to know just when It's time to step outside the lane that you've been running in Though painted lines remain They'll only help you win at someone else's race Every season comes to an end There's nothing left but the leaving Can't you see you're on borrowed time? Looking out, tell me what it is you're dreaming Love waits for you on the other side Every season comes to an end There's nothing left but the leaving Can't you see you're on borrowed time? Looking out, tell me what it is you're dreaming Love waits for you on the other side

Red Car 03:50
Babe, let's take the red car out Drive out past the edge of town We'll take our memories for a spin It's time we let the windows down And feel the wind blowing the cobwebs out As we drive into the dying of the light We'll thank our stars After all this time Our love is still alive All this time Our love is still alive Take my hand and hold it tighter now The world's expanding, spinning faster out Watching proudly as our babies learn to live We'll thank our stars After all this time Our love is still alive All this time Our love is still alive Our love is still alive Still, I do Still, I do Still

Test Of Time 03:07
Was everything you'd ever be Contained within a single seed? Time exposes everything That's germinating underneath How many more who've gone before have tried To stand the test of time? The waning wick is flickering Shadows casting memories The fog is finally settling On truth obscuring honesty How many more who've gone before have tried To stay the course and never compromise? How many more who've gone before have tried To stand the test of time? Everything we are, we are because we're told we are Everything we are, we are because we're told we are Everything we are, we are because we're told we are Everything we are, we are because we're told we are How many more who've gone before have tried To stay the course and never compromise? How many more who've gone before have tried To stand the test of time?

Haunted 05:38
I never knew blindness Would creep in with the gift of sight And if you'd permit me to be honest I've lost some peace And I've lost almost all my fight I've grown tired of making claims On this intangible exchange So for now, I'll just sit here in the silence But I must admit I'm still listening for my name I don't know Jesus And I hope you'll understand I don't know Jesus I'm still haunted by a ghost But I never met the man Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost, then I was found Then I got lost again For want of mystery Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved But now, in this freedom that I've found I'm starting to fear How far this grace is gonna lead I don't know Jesus And I hope you understand I don't know Jesus I'm still haunted by a ghost But I never met the man

Mind the silverware Perfect napkin folding display Everything has a place Family gathers round Each one nailing their role to play So perfectly fake But don't speak of any pain Defend your family's name Lest there be hell to pay Sunday morning comes Congregation files into place Painted smiles on their face Bow your head and pray Perfect recitation display Keeps your questions at bay But don't speak of any pain Defend your family's name Lest there be hell to pay Lest there be hell to pay Lest there be hell to pay Oh say, can you see? We live in the land of the free But don't speak of any pain Defend your family's name Lest there be hell to pay
