In the morning, under the bridge Take the B line, you know it keeps me hid There's a man, askin' which way is which I said listen mister, how'd ya get so rich? Gotta been that sleepy silver train haze Gotta been that sleepy silver train haze And I seen it In the evening, I seen your face That junk is stolen, without a trace There's a man, going uptown He's laughin' madly, with a broken crown Gotta been that sleepy silver train haze Gotta been that sleepy silver train haze And I seen it, comin down the line In the morning, under the bridge Take the B line, you know it keeps me hid There's a man, askin' which way is which I said listen mister, how'd ya get so rich? Gotta been that sleepy silver train haze Gotta been that sleepy silver train haze And I seen it

Well I went away for a while Had to leave this place before I die I was up inside a cloud with a darkness in my boot You know this graveyard lady, they were haunting my every mood, yeah I gotta turn on, you know I had to get out When I look back yesterday you were all so strung out Well I ride that black train on a river bend And the sun lookin' dark with a couple friends I was deep down underground talkin' to a homeless man He was high on turpentine speakin' from another land, yeah I gotta turn on, you know I had to get out When I look back yesterday you were all so strung out When I look in through inside my mind I saw you standin' there, you were going blind I gotta turn on, you know I had to get out When I look back yesterday you were all so strung out

New Age 02:36
There comes a time when you realize it falls to you Carrying more than you did before, see it through There is no choice, each day returns with a voice And a demand, where it lands, when is up to you Travel down and closer to Shatter walls that you once knew It's no lie, can't deny There comes a time of a new age Move along turn the page Hesitate and you're laid to waste Look beyond make your way And so it begins, you're either out or your in I see no break, nothing worse than the mind decay Travel down and closer to Shatter walls that you once knew It's no lie, can't deny There comes a time of a new age Move along turn the page Hesitate and you're laid to waste Look beyond make your way There comes a time of a new age There comes a time of a new age

Outside Mind 02:47
They're staking up, you gotta ask yourself How many more will it take? To change the path we're on From the right, which is wrong It's coming down baby you know it's gonna hit the ground It's every man for himself yeah We're nowhere man, ain't no help, won't you please listen? They claim that more out in the streets Will solve the crisis in a beat But don't you see? Right through their plan Just wanna keep us desperate It's coming down baby you know it's gonna hit the ground It's every man for himself yeah We're nowhere man, ain't no help, won't you please listen? You see those hawks? And their fixed eyes And they try and fly through that smoke filled sky They see no end, don't care for one There goes another someone's son It's every man for himself yeah We're nowhere man, ain't no help, won't you please listen? It's every man for himself yeah We're nowhere man, ain't no help, won't you please listen?

Find My Way 05:43
Gotta find my way out of here before it gets too late Found my shotgun and your bullets, the sniper's at the gate And I know where you are Speed so fast in your car When I look outside the window you know I've seen your face Smoke a risin' on that mountain, I'm gonna seal your fate And I know where you are Speed so fast in your car And I'm gonna find my way And I'm gonna find my way I don't know where Where I have been Why can't you help me find the place I'm in? When I look outside the window you know I've seen your face Smoke a risin' on that mountain, you're gonna seal your fate And I know where you are Speed so fast in your car And I'm gonna find my way And I'm gonna find my way I don't know where Where I have been Why can't you help me find the place I'm in?

She's Gone 02:58
She knows how to shine a light And she even voices her plight Lookin' for a change to come her way Movin' on and on her actions remain And she's gone Like a pawn Time invested draggin' her down And she's running from her own frown Tumblin' down the line showing no control What is causin' her do dig in that hole? And she's gone Like a pawn I don't know where she'll go But I know what is now She's Gone! I don't know where she'll go But I know what is now She's gone Like a pawn And she's gone Like a pawn

History of changes Now uncertainty Dare to raise the questions Of how it came to be Hand to mouth and growing to the norm Drive the wedge in deeper than before And they sit as they watch Watch the puppet game And I'm wonderin' why they turn the blame Spin the wheel spin the web around anyone Everything's for the taking Turn the blame So much more than few Seen this all before Don't drink the water it was made for you What's it gonna' take to make it clear When the population feeds on fear And they sit as they watch Watch the puppet game And I'm wonderin' why they turn the blame Spin the wheel spin the web around anyone Everything's for the taking Turn the blame

Well I got that whiskey woman by my side She know what I want and she keeps me satisfied But she keeps on takin' my nickels and my dimes You know that woman she's oh so fine Got that tight skirt on, drive me out of my mind But she keeps on drinkin' my whiskey and my wine Yeah! Been drinkin' that bourbon I think I'm goin' blind But my lady got me, she keep me down the line But she keeps on takin' my nickels and my dimes Yeah! Well I got that whiskey woman by my side She know what I want and she keeps me satisfied But she keeps drinkin' my whiskey and my wine
9.
Undone 02:22
I can feel tension build What was good has been killed Takes my time fills my mind Puts my soul to the grind Breathin' in what's to come Living in the undone And the blood in my veins Triggers all nervous pain I'm upset I'm confused When you jump between moods Breathin' in what's to come Living in the undone Done, Mad, Sad, Bad
10.
All Is Lost 04:26
A dark cloud surrounds my boat Lost or found there's no hope In my dreams they will call In my daze they will crawl In and out I'll fall Break or burn I lost my head yeah I'm not dead I lost my head yeah I'm not dead Yeah I'm not dead

about

St. Phillip's Escalator Rochester, New York

St. Phillip’s Escalator were formed by guitarist/vocalist Ryan Moore, drummer Zachary Koch, and bass guitarist Noel Wilfeard in their hometown of Rochester, New York. The band instantly became a crowd favorite with their unique and fervid take on psychedelia and blues; easily climbing atop the wave of the garage rock revival movement of the mid-2000s, all while barely being out of their teens. ... more
