Maria Daines ~ Out of Order

’Out of Order’ These old hurts in my head Weigh me down, weigh me down Heavy stones in my heart Thought I’d lose ’em by now Falling down, falling down Harder and harder Only one way out Rise up, out of order These old bonds ain’t gonna break Made of chain, made of chain Rusted ring on my finger Clean it up in the rain Put on my good boots Hit the gas to Monterey Pull up them bad roots Throw ’em out, start again These old hurts in my head Weigh me down, weigh me down Heavy stones in my heart Thought I’d lose ’em by now For a nickel or a quarter Do what I ain’t oughta Taste the metal in the gunsmoke Rise up, out of order Well you never can tell How it goes, how it goes Throw silver in the well Luck is out, water froze But you ain’t gonna get there Lost like an outcast Shackles ain’t your memories Burnt out in the past These old dreams fall away Hold me back, hold me back Steal the light in the day Reaching out in the black Falling down, falling down Harder and harder Only one way out Rise up, out of order Rise up, out of order, yeah Rise up, rise up, rise up baby Rise up, rise up like a mama Rise up, like you oughta Rise up, rise up Rise up, out of order C’mon yeah, hey, c’mon, hey C’mon yeah, rise up, out of order C’mon baby, rise up, rise up Rise up © Maria Daines/Paul Killington 25th February 2024 New CD album, Blue ~ Our thanks to the great photographers at Pexels and Pixabay for their beautiful film clips.
