FEED YOUR SOUL
THE TEXAS RADIO STORY
Texas Radio was formed in Echo Park by Carty Talkington & Douglas Forrest. Texas Radio takes its name from the outlaw radio stations that broadcast illegally across the Mexican Border during the first half of the 20th Century. Texas Radio plays western psychedelic soul music to inspire & lift spirits. Music you might hear on a road trip trough the Lone Star State, moving your way across the AM dial. Texas Radio plays music we believe in.
EARLY REVIEWS
"The whole thing is reminiscent of a combo of the dark Leonard Cohen stuff / Tom Waits / Pink Floyd / early Beck / Jeff Buckly-esque honesty & Radiohead kind of feel."

TEXAS RADIO LYRICS
"ARE YOU COMING"
Your lips were sweet
Tasted like money
Your water was deep
Your river was running
I like the way you walk
I like the way you talk
I like the way you stalk
I like the way you
Who cares I’m there
Are you coming
Who cares I’m there
Are you running
My scars were deep
My soul was sunny
My water was sweet
My river was running
Do you like the way I walk
Do you like the way I talk
Do you like the way I stalk
Do you like the way I
Who cares I’m there
Are you coming
Who cares I’m there
Are you running
It surrounds you
Gonna crown you
Now I found you
Gonna never let you go
It surrounds you
Gonna crown you
Now I found you
Like a city of gold
Our kiss was sweet
Tasted like honey
Your water was deep
My river was running
Do you like the way we walk
Do you like the way we talk
Do you like the way we stalk
Do you like the way we
Who cares I’m there
Are you coming
Who cares I’m there
Are you running
Who cares I’m there

"GHOST"
I really dig the way you fade away
I really dig the way you fall apart
I look into my mirror
It’s empty are you near me
Please just don’t fade back into my heart
I pray you will I pray you won’t
I pray all day I am a ghost
I am a ghost learning to fade
Floating away back to where I’m from
And you’re a ghost starting to sway
Swaying all day on your invisible sun
Hey it’s all right
Day turns to night
We’ll ride the white light
Back to where we’re from
Truth’s a monster there is no doubt
That monster chewed you up & spit you out
You thought that you were bleeding
But really you were dreaming
That monster chewed you up & spit you out
Pray it will pray it won’t
Pray all day you are a ghost
You are a ghost learning to fade
Floating away back to where you’re from
And I’m a ghost starting to sway
Swaying all day on my invisible sun
And hey it’s all right
Day turns to night
We’ll ride the white light
Back to where we’re from
We’ll ride the white light
We’ll ride the white light
Back to where we begun
The invisible sun
My invisible sun
"FEEL IT INSIDE"
They think we’re empty
Wanna fill us up
With their horn of plenty
And our bottomless cup
They think we’re empty
Can’t feel it inside
They think we’re tempted
Can’t feel it inside
Cause when you feel it inside
Ain’t nothin’ like that feelin’
When you feel it inside
Feels like your reelin’
Here comes that feeling
Can’t you feel that feeling
Can’t you feel it inside
Can’t you feel it inside
With your wings on the ground
You got no where to fly to
With your wings on the ground
They got you tied down
They got you tied down
All you touch don’t feel
All you see ain’t real
All they teach you I beseech you
Burn it with your fear
So you can feel it inside
All you touch don’t feel
All you see ain’t real
All they teach you
I beseech you
Burn it with your fear
So you can feel it inside
Feel it inside
"ALL MY LOVE"
Watching the way the white stripes bend
Over the edge again & again
On the road to you
It never ends
But I’d drive all night
Just to lay against your light
Gonna hold it tight
With all of my love
All of my fierce love
All of my love
All of my savage love
And I’d run all day
Just to watch you walk away
And I ain’t got no words to say
Here’s all of my love
Can you take it
Here’s all of my love
Nothing can break it
Don’t let those demons
Get you down and out again
Tear you up swallow you up in sin
Gotta stand up like a sword inside the sun
Gotta be true
Gotta give it all your love
Are you giving it all your love?
All of your love
All your fierce love
Give it all of your love
All of your fierce love
Give it all of your love
All of your savage love
It never fades away
Not for a million days
Gonna look you in the eye & say
Here’s all of my love
All of my love
"LEAVE YOUR REFLECTION"
We did our time
Got tore up inside
Never lied when we cried
Never lied when we cried
We took that pain
Until we went insane
Got lost in the rain
Wanna wash it away
Mind where you’re goin’
Not where you’ve been
Gotta keep on glowin’
If you wanna live
Pull yourself together
And know it’s not a crime
To leave your reflection behind
Leave your reflection
Head in a different direction
Leave your reflection behind
It’s not a crime
Just say goodbye
Let it die
Gotta leave it behind
Mind where you’re goin’
Not where you’ve been
Gotta keep on glowin’
If you wanna live
Pull yourself together
Find yourself inclined
Leave your reflection behind
Leave your reflection
It’s just a rear projection
Leave your reflection behind
