On With The Show 04:16
lyrics
buy track
You're watching results of a plan No one talked to you about Like destiny when you put it another way Shaking like the rabbit Caught in the fox's mouth Is it time for you to pray or to be prey The fabric of your dreams Goes fraying at the seams It don't seem right But you're closer than you think The answers that you seek are in plain sight You feel your story is done But you didn't write it done And how it ends for you You can't foresee What you do not understand In your time of self doubt The living is for you and it's for free The fabric of your dreams Goes fraying at the seams It don't seem right But you're closer than you think The answers that you seek are in plain sight On with the show Take it away

Newberry 02:58
lyrics

It was a dark day In Newberry,Carolina They hung him high Left his soul for God to find him His big white dog Never left his side He howled and moaned Til he turned around up and died They brought a ghost hound To Goshen Hill that day When you hang an innocent man There's Hell to pay On cold dark nights You'll see him still That great,white hound Looking for blood to spill If you're pure of heart He'll leave you alone If you aint been livin' right He'll leave you cold as stone They brought a ghost hound To Goshen Hill that day When you hang an innocent man There's Hell to pay

In The Dark 02:39
lyrics

Used to walk around at night When there's no light By the memory of the room Used to like to run away To places I felt safe From everything but you I feel safe in the dark See your face in the dark Feel safe in the dark With you Hear your voice say my name When you're far away In the middle of the night Is it me that misses you Or do you miss me too As I pine away the time Feel safe in the dark See your face in the dark Feel safe in the dark With you Still walk around at night when there's no light By the memory of the room Still like to run away To places I feel safe From everything but you Feel safe in the dark See your face in the dark Feel safe in the dark With you

Treehouse 03:31
lyrics

Look out below I'm way up high Had to climb up here to get my head right I got no wings But I got fresh eyes Sometimes you gotta get lost to see the light I was stuck in a deep,dark place Chasing round my own tail You don't need bars or a cage To find yourself in jail But I'm far removed Here up in the leaves I kicked those blues pretty as you please I was stuck in a deep,dark place Chasing round my own tail You don't need bars or a cage To find yourself in jail And I'll wave to you As you go driving by Life looks sweeter Seen from a bird's eyes My mind is crystal Sunlight through the leaves I'm a tree house sitter and I've been released Look out below I'm way up high Had to climb up here to make things right.

Just Like Him 03:16
lyrics

I felt a look cover my face One that me think of Dad It was a look that showed His caring and grace While his eyes remained sad I felt just like my Father When I'd talk about Things on my mind that were bothering me He was smiling, quiet and sad Sitting in my car Watching my child He hadn't noticed me there He was milling around His eyes on the ground He looked up at me and he smiled He looked just like my Father When I talked about Things on my mind that were bothering me He was smiling, quiet and sad I felt just like My old man Just like him I know I'll smile again

Polaroid 02:45
lyrics

Seen you in that polaroid A pony Miller beer in your hand Unlit cigarette dangling from your lips You were just a little kid The grownups put you up to it And it's for sure they're gonna do it again The more things change, the more they stay the same But the time of custom vans has gone away Years started crashing by You started running with the band Smoking more than cigarettes Never turning down a hit The party never seemed to end But you realized the guests had gone And you're left standing by yourself again No one's around to hear a note you play They washed out in a pile of yesterdays It's hard to believe the hands of time They move along so gradually Before you can blink your life has come to pass The boy in the polaroid is history Seen you in The Chronicle An old soul smiling at me Baby girl on your hip A daddy's grin on your lips She couldn't have been much older than 3 You made your peace with the man upstairs And he's laid it out like ABCs You're finger wrapped And if that's that well you're okay Quite a change Made the man that you became When she smiles You turn to dust You're just blown away Daddy's heart From the start She was born to take

All That's Broken 02:47
lyrics

Hey Lynn where'd you go? It's been a long,cold holiday The kid's have gotten older Since you first went away I tried not to be angry Close my eyes to meditate Until that feeling passes It's just you fading to gray We picked up all that's broken Went on with the parade But I was always hopeful That you'd come back some day All of my imagined endings Have no part in this play So instead I kiss your children It hurts a little less that way Hey Lynn where'd you go? All the press have gone away And I'm still ever hopeful That you'll come home one day

French Kisses(On Wheels) 03:35
lyrics

Roller rink romances Stolen sidelong glances Slow skate dances French kisses on wheels It's a couples only Video games aside And if you'll only hold me I'll be your baby tonight Rolling round the bases Takin' us new places The glory's in the chase yeah When you're coppin' a feel It's a couples only Video games aside And if you'll only hold me I'll be your baby tonight I've got 3 hours til Mom gets here And for that time I'm all yours I'm gonna hold onto you I don't care what we do They're gonna play our song for sure Roller rink romances Stolen sidelong glances Slow skate dances French kisses on wheels It's a couples only Video games aside And if you'll only hold me I'll be your baby tonight

about

This album was born in the midst and wake of tremendous personal upheaval in the lives of married couple Brian and Tracy Allen. The music within reflects that along with more than a shade of optimism.

Hound Of Goshen North Augusta, South Carolina

South Carolina family band that began as an acoustic project focused on Americana and gradually evolved into a more true representation of their collective interests...HOG's music is informed by their Southern roots as much as anything else. While not southern rock per se, let's just settle on indie rock with Southern flavor. ... more
