lyrics

I get all of my good ideas in the dark
Now I'm scanning for a signal
I could do with a half-lit spark
To keep me runnin' to a different angle

My pattern of migration has been messed up for a while
Numbers I've been pushin' missing from the dial

Strung out on supernatural junk
I see the Virgin Mary in a tree trunk
What I wouldn't do to hear her say
Help is on the way
Help is on the way

I'm always listening for one true thing
What good is music if you don't need it
I've got a chest full of ache and string
What good's a heartbeat if you don't feel it

A matter of vibration, something rattling inside
Through the noisy little corners of my mind

Strung out on supernatural junk
I see the Virgin Mary in a tree trunk
What I wouldn't do to hear her say
Help is on the way
Help is on the way

I got a row of saints on the mantle
You call me crazy, I call it practical
What good is luck if you don't see it?

Strung out on supernatural junk
I see the Virgin Mary in a tree trunk
What I wouldn't do to hear her say
Help is on the way
Help is on the way

Gonna lose the supernatural funk
See the Virgin Mary in a tree trunk
What I wouldn't do to hear her say
Help is on the way
Help is on the way
Help is on the way
Help is on the way
Help is on the way
Help is on the way

about

onetwothreescream Austin, Texas

Combining intelligent, heartfelt lyrics with pop-driven instrumentation and melodies, onetwothreescream is the amalgamation of two artists who believe that making a serious statement can align with a not-so-serious approach to the music. It's ok to scream. ... more
