about

This is one of two gritty alt-country duets with Tim Buckley-esque vocals by former Projekt labelmate, Sean Bowley, of Eden. These tracks were begun on Ryan's old 8-track machine when Sean visited America in 1997 and completed for the 'Windblown Kiss' album in Pro-Tools.

lyrics

Oh when the dust blows
How it clouds my eyes
Oh how I wish I could see you

Oh how the thieves ride
They scream through the night
Oh how I wish I could lose them

I’ll refuse them
Then I’ll lose them
I won’t abuse them
But I’m gonna lose them
I’ll refuse them
Then I’ll lose them
I won’t abuse them
But I’m gonna leave them behind

Oh when the shells fall
And wicked men play games
Oh how I choose to refuse them

Now as the day ends
And clouds close my eyes
Oh how I wish I could see you

Oh when the thoughts bite
And drain my hollow head dry
Oh how I know I must forsake them

I’ll refuse them
Then I’ll lose them
I won’t abuse them
But I’m gonna lose them
I’ll refuse them
Then I’ll lose them
I won’t abuse them
But I’m gonna leave them behind

I’ll refuse them
Then I’ll lose them
I won’t abuse them
But I’m gonna lose them
I’ll refuse them
Then I’ll lose them
I won’t abuse them
But I’m gonna leave them behind
Behind (x3)
