Some trackSome artist
While in the past he has written and recorded in the rock, pop, and experimental genres, a more mature Vancil has now found a sense of permanent belonging and connection within the community of Americana artists. His life experiences shared in song can be serious and contemplative – touching on themes of addiction, depression, and divorce – but Vancil chronicles his escape from darkness with expressions of hope and love of life that are both inspiring and healing. Ezra has a planned album release for fall 2017.

Never trade your promise for regret
The day you do your laying down a bet
That someones going to hold you when you're old
Let’s hope that human kindness doesn’t fold
Brother, it’s a wild and wary game
Then we count up the pieces that remain
Love will burn then bury you
Hearts will break then carry you
Truth will teach her song to you
As we walk our wild and weary way back home
These bridges were built by engineers
These lips could burn in days what took them years
Be careful when you reach for that last word
The last one is the only one they heard
Oh, Sister, it’s a long-forgotten tale
The lonely one is writing for himself
Love will burn, then bury you
Hearts will break then carry you
Truth will teach her song to you
As we walk our wild and weary way back home
An Elephants will always be your friend
The question is will you remember him
Never teach a bear karate
He’ll punch in the neck and break your body
Teach him how to care
Then he’ll learn to share
Take you out for dinner
Yah, he’ll take me everywhere
Sister, it’s a wild and weary road
Then we count up all the pieces that we sold
So, hang a sign and write it not for sale
These precious little items on the shelf
And sing
Love burn bright, then set me free
Heart be strong and carry me
Truth, tonight, sing your song for me
As I walk my wild and weary way back home

maybe this world is out of control
when tyrants sleep in the house of gold
riches I’ve had
and found so much more
in a hungry man’s dream, for a spiritual girl
see how she hides a crystal in hand
when I fall in her arms a broken man
washes my feet as if I were pure
with the broken leaves of her lavender
and the sunrise
it's at her command
and the stars in your eyes
part of a plan
in the earth, she cries
“all is divine,”
and,“ babe, you were made to be mine”
wise men wonder why we sing
when the clock is bent on gravity
wisdom I've had, but learned much more
when I was made the fool
for that spiritual girl
see how she burns the bundles of sage
like the holy priest in the sanctuary
under my heals and over my face
behind the veil in the ancient of days
and the sunrise
it's at her command
and the stars in your eyes
part of a plan
in the earth, she cries
“all is divine,”
and,“ babe, you were made to be mine”
maybe this world is the garden of Eden
we get so confused because love is still bleeding
pleasures I've had, but oh so much more
when I lost it all, for a spiritual girl
and the sunrise
it's at her command
and the stars in your eyes
part of a plan
in the earth, she cries
“all is divine,”
and,“ babe, you were made to be mine”

hey, girl, I think we’ve had enough
there’s a sadness that we can never rise above
my heart is heavy to be touched
it’s so crowded in the history of love
I made a promise on that wedding day
but I was wrong
that’s why I couldn’t stay
but I won’t go
I got no reason
i could love you just the same
with no possession
and no believing that I ever owned your name
babe when you finally lost your way
I didn't even realize we were through
there was just way too much to say
but now the conversation lags and there’s
nothing left to do
we made a promise, but everything has changed
I love you, babe... I know that’s why I couldn’t stay
but I won’t go
but I won’t go
I got no reason
I could love you just the same
with no possession
and no believing that I ever owned your name
Hey girl our history of love
it’s just a boring book on a shelf, but who can say
someday we’ll open up
and read this final page that we wrote today
don’t let me keep you cause it just ain't right
Don’t worry baby
I won’t even put up a fight

try to Imagine, we’re here just for a day
Might as well, because we're passing away
maybe we’d wander in some foreign town
go to an opera, I'd rent you a gown
in all of the chaos
and all gods mistakes
all for tonight and the look on your face
and I'm here,
So why can’t you stay
Touch me I'm lonely
Touch me right there
Show me the part of you
That nobody dares
why play their game
They're just lonely too
baby it’s just me
baby it’s just you
Maybe Jesus
died for the world
All I know is he gave me a girl
And I'm here,
why don’t you stay
let's go to the ocean
and play it a song
don’t care if it's Galveston
That’s where I belong
can’t bare the mountains
they make me feel small
They look down upon you
like they just know it all
-----
This Verse Section not in this edition just thought I'd put it in

Maybe we're stardust
monkeys with cars
all that want is to be in our arms
Cause I'm here, don't push me away
imagine, this is all there is
i don’t think that's true
but sometimes it is
maybe we’d wander through an antique store
make all our plans for a French country decor

i got everything I’d ever need
but I need you now more than I ever dreamed
the week it wet my appetite
for a feast alone on a Friday night
the ocean and the beach are one
like the mountains and the setting sun
there's a cabin that's way up high
where i’ll drink the potion in your eyes
baby babe I'm gonna let you down
like every man, i can’t be found
oh but I can make you dream
as you kneel beside your broken king
the world can keep their righteousness
‘cause, in sin i found the master's kiss
oh kids go play with your toys n friends
‘cause your mother's mine till she feels again
do I make you feel safe my dear
like the world can never find us here
when i lay your breast across my needs
that's where I find the hope that I'll find me
baby babe i’m gonna let you down
like everyone I just want to be found
oh but you can make me dream
as you kneel beside you broken king
from 9 in the morning till 2 pm
we could live a life from birth to end
rest your mind on a sheepskin rug
i don’t say i love cause it’s not enough
I won’t be somebody's fool
if you run around like a kid in school
babe you know we just all fuck up
and we count our fears more than our luck
baby babe i’m gonna let you down
like every man i can’t be found
oh but i can make you dream
as you kneel beside your broken king
I thought you were the fountain
(but) the ocean couldn't hold you
We climbed up on a mountain
Where my kingdom is to know you
baby babe I’m gonna let you down
Just like everyone I just want to be found
oh but I can make you dream
as you kneel beside your broken king
baby babe I'm gonna let you down
like, everyone, I got a broken crown
oh but I can make you dream
As you kneel beside your broken king
As you kneel beside your broken king
as we kneel beside our broken king

she’s a wild girl
in a fallen world
She don’t know when to stop
her heart is fun
but it weighs a ton
when it’s tied up in a knot
she don’t have to dream
all her little schemes
they don’t cost a lot
And she’s innocent
but like the government
she’ll take everything you got
who's gonna tie you up in chains
who knows your favorite dirty names
it’s bright big fallen world
and she’s a wild girl
she won't tell a lie
but the truth disguised
like you thought of it yourself
No she can’t be tamed
unless you know the game
and you know she’ll never tell
she don’t like getting high
but she’ll drink the sky
like an empty well
she won’t be your fool
no she’s way too cool
to sit on someone's shelf
who's gonna tie you up in chains
who knows your favorite dirty names
it’s bright big fallen world
and she’s a wild girl
Don’t hide the seams of my broken girl
Her love’s extreme, ‘caus it’s a wild world
who's gonna tie you up in chains
who knows your favorite dirty names
it’s bright big fallen world
and she’s a wild girl
whos gonna try your love and pain
who’s gonna play your secret game
it’s a bright big lonely world

I gathered you up in a thousand days
from 17 till old and grey
throwing shells on the Galveston bay
your crying eyes and your heart full of grace
Pain tears and a smile on your face
a mother's scars that never erase
you were so scattered and you felt out of place
so I gathered you up in a thousand days
Lost causes twist of fate
broken hearts and the lies that you hate
long drives on a snowy landscape
and your eyes by the fire at the lake
all that you wanted all that you couldn't’ escape
all those convictions that never would take
colored candles and Christmas lights
I gathered you up on a thousand nights
I pictured you in a life without me
in someones arms I never could be
and you were following the map of your dreams
so I gathered you up and I sewed up the seams
drove you down to the Galveston bay
let you go cause your heart couldn't stay
the waves were broken and calling your name
I gathered you and I gave you away

LYRICS
settle down
settle Down
I'll put you in my heart
point a way to Arkansans
throw me like a dart
wash me up in lithium
God knows I need a friend
In a hot spring new dream
we’ll start another band
play it boys
oh Remember when
remember when
I was just a kid
Now I'm sorry that I put through
The life I never lived
about drowned in DFW
when I was swimming with the Sharks
to a hot spring in Arkansas
on that river in the dark
I'm gonna settle down
settle down
and do what I should
there’s a girl that’s gonna love me
cause I did all I could
i chopped down this world around me
for the heart of the wood
now I’m gonna settle down
settle down good
I drank myself to jail and back
now I'm piss'n clean
found God at the bottom of a cigarette pack
at the Monday morning meeting
so float me up to Arkansans
like we used to do
or maybe down to Galveston
oh that wasn’t you
(who was that girl..)
Well you cried yourself to sleep each night
But I wish you understood
though I did the devils work
it was working for the good
I'm gonna settle down
settle down
do what I should
there’s a girl that’s gonna love me
cause I did all i could
I chopped down this world around me
for the heart of the wood
now I’m gonna settle down
settle down good
Well you poured me out like alcohol
‘Cause I just can’t get enough
But there is a bottom of the bottle in every heart
And getting there was tough
I think I was drinking up the dust
I'm gonna settle down
settle down
and do what I should
there’s a girl that’s gonna love me
cause I did all I could
I chopped down this world around me
for the heart of the wood
now I’m gonna settle down
settle down good

LYRICS: Lady of my heart
Why did you go so far
All i do is think of you
Your arms up like a sparrow
In the back of that old sport car
Sometimes i just picture you
Everything is dangerous
When the heart rises
Higher than the wages
of our life
Everything is dangerous
In hindsight
Nothing ever painless
Even the good times
Lady of my heart
Why did you leave that way
Silently
She goes
You left me with a question
Oh, remember that shooting star?
What did you wish
I just want to know
Everything is dangerous
When the heart rises
Higher than the wages
of our life
Everything is dangerous
In hindsight
Nothing ever painless
Even the good times
Lady of my heart
Sometimes in the quiet of the dark
All I do is think of you

Starless Stardust Night by Ezra Vancil
She's a young mother
you can tell by the dress
stardust in her eyes
I gave her my chair
and stood with the rest
on the west bound train tonight
why are you crying?
I thought to confide
I'm not so brave a man
so i stood beside her
and watched her dry
that stardust with her hand
You can go head and cry
sometimes the best
place you could hide
is in a crowd
on the west
bound train through a city
where no one dares
stardust in their eyes
She's a young christian
you can tell by the cross
she fondles by her side
maybe she woundered too far
and got lost
in this wayword city llight
are you missing somedoy?
i thought to confide
i'm not so brave a man
for she's a young woman
and we're strageres, us all
in this wayward Christian land
go head and cry
sometimes the best
place you could hide
is in a crowd
on the west
bound train through a city
where no one dares
stardust in their eyes
She's a young mother
you can tell by her dress
the kind young mothers buy
her hand on a passenger
no one has met
on this starless stardust night

NEW album Spring 2018 'You' see detials http://www.ezravancil.com
I wasn’t looking back
I thought your key had locked the door
this time for sure
an angel painted black
and a devil for the cure
each night endure
My ways are writ in stone
and I struggle through the page
each night I pay
and now you're leaving home
if there is no other way
just go don’t stay
But take me with you, I’m not hard to carry
Take me with you, I could be your souvenir
Take me with you take me with you
where ya go from here
The years are all too soon
and too late to ever change these things we do
your rocket to the moon
and my ticket at the gate won’t let me through
take me with you, I’m not hard to carry
take me with you, fold me up and dry your tears
take me with you, I’m not very heavy
take me with you take me with you
where ya go from here where ya go from here
to the place that u go and you know you’ve always been
from the deepest of dark to the heart you love again
why did I go from the grace of love that would never end
oh I dream of your face and the ?? of your skin
I wasn’t looking back
where ya go from here where ya go from here

Lyrics
no one there to help you walk that final mile
when all you wanted was an ordinary smile
the mountains rest, the forest and trees
older than i'll ever be
so i’ll wander this extraordinary road
to lose my way
I don't mind
someday I'll lay this burden down
and everything I know
I was fine
to wear this dreamers thorny crown
glad you made the show
here’s a song before I go
for many years I just forgot I was to be
something more than what you might expect from me
the ocean’s bound by the shore, it's not free
yet raining down over me..
nevermind I ain't got time to think I know
philosophy
I don't mind
that no one knew this man at all
oh you’re busy though
I was fine
to watch a child learn how to crawl
glad you made the show
and here’s a song before I go
I don't mind
I never understood this world
or anything I know
I was fine
Just to love that southern girl
glad you caught the show
I don't mind
that god don't answer when I call
oh he's busy though
I was glad
to walk beside you all alone
I'm glad you made the show
here’s a song before I go

This house is burning down
we’re moving underground
where silence is the cure
We’ll have a drink or two
we’ll watch the flame consume
all that we’ve waited for
Because we’ prayed and we concealed
and we fought only to yield
and we lied until it’s true
We’ll save the children first
we’ll watch and rest just burn
we’ll clean up when it’s through
this house i built for you
This house is burning down
I see no need to save us now
though no flame will touch the ground
this house is burning down
I was in the dark
and i might have lit the spark
but you taught it how to live
you probably didn’t know
it’s not on the TV show
that teaches us to give
this house is where it is
This house is burning down
I see no need to save us now
though no flame will touch the ground
this house is burning down
It’s burning down
all the pictures and the frames
all the stories and the blame
memories and lazy days
burn it up, lets get away
the hope we ever found
in this world
is burning down
You probably didn’t know
It’s not on the TV show …
You probably didn’t know
Well This house is burning down
I see no need to save us now
though no flame will touch the ground
this house is burning down
It’s burning down

LYRICS
t. I got everything I want
so why do I wait for you
you come along
put on the breaks for you
i see the midnight
in your eyes
but i got everything i want
I got everything I want
I don’t need rescued
you came a long
and suddenly I do
I see a pure light
in your eyes
but I got everything I want
lori - I was all right
a desolate wanderer
catch’n rides
with neighbors and lovers
ezra - out on this highway
on my own
don’t want to be alone, but I got everything I want
lori - I got everything I want
I only see the best of you
I may be wrong
BUT I don’t know the rest of you
I see a pure light
in your eyes
but I got everything I want
lori - I was JUST FINE
a desolate wanderer
spending nights
with neighbors and lovers
ezra - out on this highway
on my own
don’t want to be alone
but I got everything I want
Bridge:
life without you
no lies to prove
I don’t doubt you
just might rescue,
me from the midnight in my eyes
and crying
but without you
is easier to do
I got everything I want
so why do I want you
you come along
something I could fall into

Exclusively Streaming on Musicoin. Not much holly and cheer for the season in this song, but maybe a little hope. But, this is what my family is thinking of this Christmas. We lost a family member last summer to suicide, as well as my son's best friend to the same fate. I wrote this with both losses in my heart, but it's about my cousin Gregory. I couldn't get it off my mind, so I did what I do to deal with things, I wrote a song .. I just recorded something live in the studio, maybe someday I'll polish it up.
Lyrics
also a lyric video: https://youtu.be/kipHiAI2usU
I don’t know why i’m crying
It was such a long time ago
clouds they get in my eyes
The universe hangs low
I get to thinking
What a world has become
since you’ve been gone
I guess it’s missing someone
I miss you now
I wish you'd stuck around to find out
It’s just silly clouds
The sun will never burn out
When we were young
I heard you laughing so loud
You must of shook the earth
Till something fell out
I wasn't thinking
what a world would become
After the laughter's gone
And I’m missing someone
I miss you now
I wish you'd stuck around to find out
It’s just silly clouds
The sun will never burn out
Oh i can’t watch the news
There's nothing to be done
people will storm
and we block out the sun
I get to thinking
What a world it could be
If i only reached out
To the hand
Next to me
And say
I miss you now
I hope you stick around

i know they say the world is round
but i don’t know if its true
i’ve walked the line, no turning back and i can’t get back to you
there was a girl she was a carpenter
built another ark
now there’s no one left to go
so she floods another heart
I thought she let me see a world I never know
finally rest with nowhere left for me to know
let me walk her down the road to santiago
but i never thought she’d let me go
once i knew that you were the one, now i don’t know what to do
our love was just a tender spark, now ’m burning down for you
there was a boy he was a sailor
took journey in the dark
but for him the wind it wouldn’t blow
so he dashed against the rocks
I thought i’d let him see the world i’d never shown
finally rest with nowhere left he’d want to go
let him walk me down the aisle to santiago
but i never thought i’d let him go
there was hope when i was young that a debt of love was due
that someone owed, or at least, could loan me a heart when they were through
there was a girl she was a fable
fairy in the trees
there was a boy his magic was able
to lure her from her dreams
I thought you’d let me see the world, but not alone
and finally rest inside this garden that we’d sewn
I always knew you’d find the way to santiago
but I always thought.. you’d let me go

This week's track is a collaboration with Marcus Janus.
We grew up in the same big city
south of the mexican line
I always knew that she was pretty
and I dreamed that she’d be mine
I was the quiet one
I was the sad son
she was the valentine
and while the boys play
I just drift away
hoping she’ll read my mind
You want to play
I’m your fire
you want a song
I’ll be sung
You want feeling
I’m your desire
cause everything i do I always done
trying to make you the one
Her folks split
she took a hard hit
and traveled with the drunk’n bum
I asked about her but I didn’t want to know
just married with a baby son
but twenty years
and a lot of tears
I was broken down and left undone
she came to my door
like the girl before
hiding out on the run
You want to play
I’m your fire
you want a song
I’ll be sung
You want feeling
I’m your desire
cause everything i do I always done
trying to make you the one
She bought a white dress
man I was still a mess
drinking up the things I’d done
A perfect honeymoon
but trouble came soon
and we both had a feeling to run
and I disappeared into oled fear
searching for the boy I was
She was beside me but she wouldn’t lie to me
a man is only what he does
but if You want to play
I’m your fire
you want a song
I’ll be sung
You want feeling
I’m your desire
cause everything i do I always done
trying to make you the one
We have a house in the same big city
south of the mexican line
our children in the yard
ya our life is hard
but I know you're mine
You want to play
I’m your fire
you want a song
I’ll be sung
You want feeling
I’m your desire
cause everything i do I always done
trying to make you the one
You want to play
I’m your fire
you want a song
That I’ll be sung
I’m your desire
trying to make you the one

Lyrics
Come everybody pray
Make your decision
Starting today
From the bars of our prisons
You don't have to believe
In the God I conceive
Just Come everybody pray
Cause It’s starting today
Come everybody sing
Raise your voice to the heavens
What blessings we'd bring
Even one day in seven
You don't have to break
Any vows that you made
Come everybody sing
Cause It's starting today
Chorus:
(Congregation women Oo lal la la background)
It's starting today
Call your ministers of war
Of the state and religion
go and Stand at their door
Those who deal in divisions
No need to debate
What love demonstrates
Go and stand at the gate
Say your starting today
Come everybody dance
Like you’ve just been risen
From the ocean of man
Like all is forgiven (you)
CONGREGATION UNISON: Now give it away
To the one that you've hate-ed
so, Come everybody dance
Cause we’re Starting today.
Chorus:
(Congregation women lal la la background)
..we’re starting today
Last verse:
Somebody lift up your hand
Like your the only one living
Who was given this chance
To make something worth giving
CONGREGATION UNISON: to the ocean of man
Who can't understand
CONGREGATION OUT: That this love is THE war
We're starting today
CONGREGATION
Love is a war
.... love is the war
We're starting today
....... we’re starting today
Love is a war
....... love is the war
We're starting today

plastic moon
built my world and nothing true
except regret
even rain ain’t wet
years will change, poverty, fame
but rescue me love
when it all looks the same to you
calling angels
across invisible telephone line
Pushing tables
Like i'm a ghost that I want you to find
And shine your love
glitter stars, Styrofoam
toy cars we’re driving home with open doors
see the sawdust shores
all that shines is cold and dark
so rescue me love with your beating heart
I’m through
calling angels
across invisible telephone line
Pushing tables
Like i’m a ghost that I want you to find
And shine your love
Paper sky, plastic moon
Built a world I thought would keep you close to me
But you lost the key
Life is long tell me I’m wrong
but rescue me love before I am gone
see me.....
calling angels
Like i’m a ghost that I want you to find
And shine your love

It’s another day in paradise
it’s another day to shine
but I don’t feel so nice
and I don’t feel so kind
but you know me,
can you help me understand
it’s another day to shoot the breeze
with some of my old friends
but all those memories I don’t wanna
bring ‘em up again it get me thinking
of a better time
But I’ll keep on running till I’m through
when the sun is burning
and I’m feeling blue
I’ll keep on running running
till I’m caught up with you
Someone needs to turn me over
and get me out of bed
cause I could sleep a thousand years
and you might think I’m dead but I’m dreamin
it’s just a nice place to be
Sometimes I wonder why
I get up my friend
for something else to come along
and knock me down again
but it figures,
cause it’s a rotating world
But I’ll keep on running till I’m through
when the earth is turning
and I’m longing for you
I’ll keep on running running,
till I’m caught up with you
And if nothing comes about
in twenty years I’m all worn out
how can I give up on the truth
I’ll keep on running running
till I’m through
My responsibilities grow heavier each day
and all these thoughts and dreams
keep getting in the way
but I’m dreaming,
I’m still dreaming of your face
I’ll keep on running
till I’m caught up with you

One man’s loss is another’s cash
one man’s drink another’s stash
one must lust another’s wife
one man’s death another’s life
One man’s riches, another’s waste
one man’s drug another’s good taste
one man’s ocean, another’s shore
one man’s will is another’s war
one man’s chains another’s grace
one man’s jesus in everyone’s face
one man’s gift another’s vice
one man dies in a sacrifice
one man’s walk is another’s stride
one man’s hope is another’s lie
one man’s science, another’s church
one gets lost so the rest can search
Darkness come and Darkness go
I hope to god that you never know
what it took to write this song
You got to
(lose it all)
just to sing along
One man’s hope, another’s fear
one man tosses what the other holds dear
one mans sin another’s pride
one man’s whore is another’s bride
one man’s art another’s pain
one man’s badge another’s stain
one man’s lover is another’s loss
one man’s servant is another’s boss
Darkness come and Darkness go
I hope to god that you never know
what it took to write this song
You got to
(lose it all)
just to sing along

Well I get up
Start my day
take a moment to erase
every thing that went on
the night before
and I get drunk or take a pill
try to find the place I still
Love the rain
Do that thing I dug before
Are you gonna save me
do you know where I am
everyday a picture fading of the promise land
can you entertain the ghost of who I was
Every day a new day
every way the same old shit
I’m sunk without a tank
no good Karma in the bank
every vice
name the price and I’m the store
For this heart can’t buy a thrill
and my mind already filled
with the rain and sustaining of the war
Are you gonna save me
do you know where I am
everyday a picture fading of the promise land
can you entertain the ghost of who I was
Every day a new way
every way the same old shit
I’m sunk
Every way a new day
every way the same way
I’m just drunk, had my fill
try to find the place I still
Love the rain
dig that thing I dug before.

I’ve been hungry
for forgiveness, I think
So I bought me a cross
counted the world lost
and poured me a drink
And I’ve been lonely sometimes
I had to get somebody fast
cause I knew any day I’d go down
to the ocean and drown in my lonely past
But the peace comes on the morning
when I really don’t know what to do
So I lay down beside me, all that might guide me
and that’s when I follow you
I was ruined sometimes I think
by religion
cause I hid in that church,
and I didn’t want to search for my own decisions
and I’ve been fighting for way too long
with my country
but I worry about my son
that they’ll give him a gun
say hey boy, why don’t you go fight
for this, them or for me
But the peace comes on the morning
when I don’t think I know what is true
I lay down beside me, all that might guide me
and that’s when I follow you
I’ve been running
from illusions
that they broadcast all day
try to scare me away from my own conclusions
and I get so tired, I must admit
of this forgiveness
but you could steal it all today
and I’ll still give it all away
that’s my decision
and the peace comes on the morning
when I got nothing left to prove (really don’t know what to do)
I lay down beside me, all that might guide me
and that’s when I follow you

Road to Zion by Ezra Vancil & Jeff Stanley
From Album SINNERS & SLAVES
Like a church you’re a maze
dark halls draw lines on your face
You’re a child in a race
with your future fallen grace
Ya You're blind but you see
the man you'll never be
Just a clown try in vain,
to where your paint in the rain
So just go your way
we don't want this kinda faith
That’s ok if you shine,
burnin down the road to zion
Draw a crowd on a street
so they magnify your weeping
Crown it’s a pound,
of your hate you love to venerate
Your mind like a phone
calling god’s holy angels home
It’s a loss to be found
when you think your glory bound
So just go your way
we don't want this kinda faith
That’s ok if you shine,
burnin down the road to zion
And it’s love and its grace
not a war of hate politic debate
So just go your way
we don't want this kinda faith
That’s ok if you shine,
burnin down the road to zion
So just go your way
we don't want this kinda faith
That’s ok if you shine,
burnin down the road to zion

SONG BEFORE I GO
no one there to help you walk that final mile
when all you wanted was an ordinary smile
the mountains rest, the forest and trees
older than i'll ever be
so i’ll wander this extraordinary road
to lose my way
I don't mind
someday I'll lay this burden down
and everything I know
I was fine
to wear this dreamers thorny crown
glad you made the show
here’s a song before I go
for many years I just forgot I was to be
something more than what you might expect from me
the ocean’s bound by the shore, it's not free
yet raining down over me..
nevermind I ain't got time to think I know
philosophy
I don't mind
that no one knew this man at all
oh you’re busy though
I was fine
to watch a child learn how to crawl
glad you made the show
and here’s a song before I go
I don't mind
I never understood this world
or anything I know
I was fine
Just to love that southern girl
glad you caught the show
I don't mind
that god don't answer when I call
oh he's busy though
I was glad
to walk beside you all alone
I'm glad you made the show
here’s a song before I go

Ezra Vancil & The Congregation Live performance of Everybody Leaves.
Everybody Leaves
Everybody Goes away
Everybody wants to spend the night alone
or falls asleep on the telephone
we all think they give us just another day
Everybody Leaves
Everybody Goes away
I held her then like a sunny day
when the storms had nearly drown the world
she caught a wave
she let me in but then she turned away
and when I looked her in the eyes
i saw her leaving me
Everybody Leaves
Everybody Goes away
Everybody plays the blues like a saxophone
or falls asleep on the telephone
we all think they give us just another day
Everybody Leaves
Everybody Goes away
I held him there like a movie star
He’s the California tin man with an old guitar
I think about you when my life is hard
and I look up at the sky & wonder where you are

Galveston is a song about letting go of someone you love.
Galveston written by Ezra Vancil
recorded produced and released Ezra/Thomas
EABEBE
I gathered you up in a thousand days
from 17 till old and grey
throwing shells on the Galveston bay
your crying eyes and your heart full of grace
Pain tears and a smile on your face
a mother's scars that never erase
you were so scattered and you felt out of place
so I gathered you up in a thousand days
Lost causes twist of fate
broken hearts and the lies that you hate
long drives on a snowy landscape
and your eyes by the fire at the lake
all that you wanted all that you couldn't’ escape
all those convictions that never would take
colored candles and Christmas lights
I gathered you up on a thousand nights
I pictured you in a life without me
in someones arms I never could be
and you were following the map of your dreams
so I gathered you up and I sewed up the seams
drove you down to the Galveston bay
let you go cause your heart couldn't stay
the waves were broken and calling your name
I gathered you and I gave you away

I wasn’t looking back
I thought your key had locked the door
this time for sure
an angel painted black
and a devil for the cure
each night endure
My ways are writ in stone
and I struggle through the page
each night I pay
and now you're leaving home
if there is no other way
just go don’t stay
But take me with you, I’m not hard to carry
Take me with you, I could be your souvenir
Take me with you take me with you
where ya go from here
The years are all too soon
and too late to ever change these things we do
your rocket to the moon
and my ticket at the gate won’t let me through
take me with you, I’m not hard to carry
take me with you, fold me up and dry your tears
take me with you, I’m not very heavy
take me with you take me with you
where ya go from here where ya go from here
to the place that u go and you know you’ve always been
from the deepest of dark to the heart you love again
why did I go from the grace of love that would never end
oh I dream of your face and the ?? of your skin
I wasn’t looking back
where ya go from here where ya go from here

Song Before I Go is a special song in Ezra Vancil's catalogue. Ezra went through a bout of deep depression and addiction, eventually loosing the ability to perform music.
When he returned to the stage, this was the first song that came to him and set a path for a new life and career in music winning a place at The Kerrville New Folk and landing a placement as finalist in the International Songwriting Contest. The song was recorded over a live writers track on Ezra's laptop home studio and has become one of his most popular songs, yet the decision has been made at each opportunity to record it in a studio situation, to leave it as it is.

January 2016 Ezra Vancil too life long fans and band mates and put 14 people on a stage at the first club he had started his music career in as a young teenager. The audience was invite only as the the club had been converted into a pure analog studio and living situation for the engineer called Farralog Studio in Deep Ellum Dallas Texas. The result was a magical night where the crowd on stage and the crowd in the audience blended into one chorus of vocals.
Come everybody pray
Make your decision
Starting today
From the bars of our prisons
You don't have to believe
In the God I conceive
Just Come everybody pray
Cause It’s starting today
Come everybody sing
Raise your voice to the heavens
What blessings we'd bring
Even one day in seven
You don't have to break
Any vows that you made
Come everybody sing
Cause It's starting today
Chorus:
(Congregation women Oo lal la la background)
It's starting today
Call your ministers of war
Of the state and religion
go and Stand at their door
Those who deal in divisions
No need to debate
What love demonstrates
Go and stand at the gate
Say your staring today
Come everybody dance
Like you’ve just been risen
From the ocean of man
Like all is forgiven (you)
CONGREGATION UNISON: Now give it away
To the one that you've hate-ed
so, Come everybody dance
Cause we’re Starting today.
Chorus:
(Congregation women Oo lal la la background)
we’re starting today
Last verse:
Somebody lift up your hand
Like your the only one living
Who was given this chance
To make something worth giving
CONGREGATION UNISON: to the ocean of man
Who can't understand
CONGREGATION OUT: That this love is THE war
We're starting today
CONGREGATION
Love is a war
.... love is the war
We're starting today
....... we’re starting today
Love is a war
....... love is the war
We're starting today
….... we’re starting today
Love is a war

In January 2016 Ezra Vancil went back to one of the very first clubs he started his music career in, which had been converted into a pure analog studio and living situation for the engineer. He brought in fans by invite only and had one of the most magical nights of his career, which was all luckily captured to Analog Tape and released as the live album Live From The Deep.
He invited fans and friends to set in center stage and lead the audience in many of the songs.
