When the day’s turning slow
And there’s nothing below
And the time’s all you know
You just fill it
When there’s nothing around
And your feet left the ground
And the room echoes sound
You just fill it
You just fill it
You reach but you’re never touching the wall
But something there beats nothing at all
Like the feeling
When your thoughts disappear
And the reason’s not clear
And your mind feels the fear
You just fill it
And your person has gone
And you just can’t go on
When your night turns to dawn
You just fill it
You just fill it
It’s the feeling
When you stand all alone
And the future’s unknown
And your life’s not your own
You just fill it
You just fill it
Just fill it
You just fill it
Just fill it
You just fill it
Just fill it
Just fill it

Red Guitar

I wrote this song on your red guitar
I never thought we would get this far
Did you
What about you
I love the smell of a beer-soaked bar
I never needed to be a star
Did you
How about you
The things we love
Will just fade away
Will they make it
Another day
We won't last
But that's okay
We turn it up when we cannot hear
Another night and another year
Or two
With you
A killer beat is my favorite drug
To make it stop they will just unplug
Me too
I'm through
The things we love
Will just fade away
Will they make it
Another day
It can't last
But that's okay
I wrote this song on your red guitar
I never thought we would get this far
Did you
What about you
The things we love
Will just fade away
Will they make it
Another day
Nothing lasts
But that's okay

She Wanted More

Peace comes around on moon azul
She wanted more
Waves disappear in a painted pool
She wanted more
Gods giving all that they want to give
Then they approved everythiing she did
Gave her the live she began to live
She wanted more
She wanted more
Time hanging down like a dying tree
He wanted more
Freedom was not in the recipe
He wanted more
He wants to play with his idle hands
They shipped him off to a foreign land
Finding a new way to be a man
He wanted more
He wanted more
All waking up to setting sun
They wanted more
Doing the job that is never done
They wanted more
Feeling the love of a changing time
Singing the songs that begin to rhyme
Fear set aside like a tarnished dime
They wanted more
They wanted more
They wanted more
One two three four

Down West Los Angeles, California
DOWN WEST is a rock trio. Featuring songwriter Steve Stanard on guitar and harmonica, Theo Waddell on cajon, drums, and percussion, and Ron Feliciano on bass, it’s the kind of indie music that could only be grown in Southern California.
Down West recommends:
This sounds like Wilco is playing in your living room, and not quietly either. Tweedy's voice and songwriting are as intimate as ever.
