The Jam Song 04:45
It's better to lean on; much better than taking it alone The tables have turned now; it's time to get on with the show One will die, And two will try, But three won't lie... Until their muscles cry Let's jam a bit longer; our hearts will grow stronger, don't you know? The message is clear now; it's time to get off the radio One will die, And two will try, But three won't lie... Until their muscles cry So hey now Let's not throw life away now The sound is what you say now We're coming out to play For you now The here and now Open wide Here we come One, two, three, four So hey now Let's not throw life away now The sound is what you say now We're coming out to play

Break 05:20
I want to live until I die There's nothing that could make me cry Until I met you - I can't sleep at night Since I found you, the rope is oh so tight It's oh so tight... Let's take a break and then we'll sit right down for a moment Let's take a breath and then we'll lay it all on the line How can we tell what lies inside When every feeling runs and hides So why go find you? You'll just slip and slide It won't make it easier on my mind You're on my mind... Let's take a break and then we'll sit right down for a moment Let's take a breath and then we'll lay it all on the line I want to live until I die There's nothing that could make me cry Until I met you - I can't sleep at night Since I found you, the rope is oh so tight I lost control I can't let go Let's take a break and then we'll sit right down for a moment Let's take a breath and then we'll lay it all on the line

It's too late for you to shine, 'cause all your time is gone Remember the day I lied and tried to take you on I'm wrapped up in shadows that you cast against my wall So take your leave, make like a tree, so everything can fall It's gone, all wasted Like the summer - overrated It's too late for you to light the street that takes me home For blinding me enticingly from everything I've known It's done, situated Since the summer segregated It's done, situated Since the summer segregated It's gone, all wasted Like the summer - overrated

The Better 03:55
We surround the green table and we have failed as one, and I Can't forget the cards you kept in sleeves about your gown But the truth is that I know... The better it gives, the better it gets The better it gives, the better it gets The better it gives, the better it gets The better it gives... And I lay down outside If I let you win, it won't be so bad If I fold now, it might be for the best I put myself down on the table to see the chances I might have tonight But I found the luck I had was meager around this town But I guess you'll never know... The better it gives, the better it gets The better it gives, the better it gets The better it gives, the better it gets The better it gives... And I lay down outside If I let you win, it won't be so bad I got a straight to the queen If I fold now, it might be for the best

Make You Pay 05:05
I don't wanna know where you wanna go I don't wanna see who you wanna be You told me that you'd listen to the words that I would say Part of me had told me that I'd never see that day Think of all the times I could have thrown it all away When everyone, everyone said I had to make you pay Let's not mend what we cannot repair Mainly 'cause I'm only just a spare Our time is wasting away What do you want me to say? I'm losing nerve day by day And then you turn and run I don't wanna know how your body grows You took it all from me, and you hit it on the nose Think of all the times you couldn't think of things to say Now everyone, everyone said I had to make you pay I can't find the means to understand You'd never guess by how it all began I'll be sure to take my time You are not an enemy of mine Our time is wasting away What do you want me to say? I'm losing nerve day by day And then you turn and run

Gracie 04:33
Little Gracie is a model Always outside of the bottle I wanna take her to the levee This emptiness is killing me My allegiance with the species Always gives me heebie-jeebies I'm living a lie, the river has dried, But the stream still flows in my mind She's the one who gets away Tries to tell what's safe from sound I'm in love by myself, With my leg stuck in the ground, And it's cold Gracie dreams of open spaces Wouldn't mind a few new faces I wanna kiss but she's so heavy This emptiness is killing me She's the one who gets away Tries to tell what's safe from sound I'm in love by myself, With my leg stuck in the ground, And it's cold Come on baby! She's the one who gets away Tries to tell what's safe from sound I'm in love by myself, With my leg stuck in the ground, And it's cold

about

Iridium Lafayette, Louisiana

Like the element of the same name, the band Iridium is unique, solid, and powerful. Four young musicians possessing passion, creativity, and most importantly - chemistry, came together in 2009 from central Louisiana and have built a strong local following, but with their grungy-rock-alternative sound, are beginning to emerge beyond the local scene. ... more
