Desolation
A distant train, softly singing me to sleep, while I pray for you, my soul to keep
I see the sun start to rise, I see the death of the night
I become all I despise, I will be different this time
The wild raconteur, the silent voyeur, alone in the park, with the old question mark
The silent voyeur just an old pair of lies in the dark
If you should go, before I wake, I swear it won't be the last, of all my mistakes
I see the sun start to rise, I see the death of this night
I'll become all I despise, but I will be different this time
The wild raconteur, the silent voyeur, alone in the park, with the old question mark
The silent voyeur just an old pair of lies in the dark
Spiritual
Mandalas from the masters (I'm seeing things I never thought that I could see)
Walking like a shepherd (I'm being led by things that I thought I could lead)
Take a flight with an eagle, Egyptian visions from a beetle, conversations with a cup of blue tea
Give your body no time to think, let it ring through the hollows
Feel the moment you lock with space, let it flow 'til it follows
Feel the fire that moves inside, feel the earth outside of time
And release what's in your mind
Crystal silence in the snowfall (It's all exploding but I never hear a sound)
Dancing with moon shadow on the wall (I keep on falling but I never touch the ground)
Searching for four leaf clover, still looking when someone walks over
Shape shifting our imaginings
Give your body no time to think, let it ring through the hollows
Feel the moment you lock with space, let it flow 'til it follows
Feel the fire that moves inside, feel the earth outside of time
And release what's in your mind
Grace in the deepenest breaths (I lose myself and I forget to breathe)
Songs with the drum that's beating rhythms in your chest (my heart is beating what else do I need?)
Guidance from your blood flows, swirling color chakra show
See through the eye that never blinks
Give your body no time to think, let it ring through the hollows
Feel the moment you lock with space, let it flow 'til it follows
Feel the fire that moves inside, feel the earth outside of time
And release what's in your mind
It's Not The Anything
I find a place between the trees, encased in green and shadows deep
Where I can find my whole new world, where I invent the sin and then begin to sing the world to sleep
It's not in the silent places, it's not the anything
It's not the eyeless faces, it's not the anything
It's not in the quiet spaces, it's not the anything
It's anything, it's everything I've done
The sky is blue but the well is dry, I sing my worn out battle cries
The echoes roar across the land, this pointless rage, this empty page, this bleed with no reply
It's not the silent places, it's not the anything
It's not the eyeless faces, it's not the anything
It's not in the quiet spaces, it's not the anything
It's anything, it's everything I've done
It's not the hole inside, it's not the rising tide, it's not the heartless song, it's anything, and everything I've ever done
Cut Away
Cut away and return, falling away and return
Witness the dead limbs, fall and decay
Calling back to the earth, for what the future is willing to trade
To put an end to the search, put an end to the search
Put an end to the search, put an end to the search
Cut away and return, falling away and return
Cut away and return, falling away and return
This is the real flesh, clawing its way
To the center and back, to the find the answers are fading away
Now prepare for the attack, now prepare for the attack
Now prepare for the attack, now prepare for the attack
Cut away and return, falling away and return
Cut away and return, falling away and return
These are the real flames, the water of life
The answers have been removed to what the future is willing to trade
Put an end to the search, put an end to the search
Put an end to the search, put an end to the search
Put an end to the search, put an end to the search
Put an end to the search, put an end to the search
Trouble
You like trouble, you're in too deep, you need the lightning to get to sleep
You feel the crazy begin to creep, you're steep in danger, for your release
You're in trouble, you've got to feed, you want the drama, to make you bleed
And it's got nothing to do with need, it's an impulse that makes you breathe
You send all this to end this friendship tonight
Oh, you burned it turned this earned friendship into spite
You send all this to end this friendship tonight
Oh, you burned it turned this earned friendship into spite tonight, tonight, tonight
You're like trouble, you love to leap, there’s nothing out there for you to seek
Just blood in puddles, beneath your feet, the smell of anger, oh how it reeks
You're in trouble, trapped in a seat, it takes an army to make you leave
Misunderstood words, hand on your knee, is all it takes to make you shriek
Oh you send all this to end this friendship tonight
You burned it turned this earned friendship into spite
Uh oh, uh oh, you send all this to end this friendship tonight
Uh oh, you burned it turned this earned friendship into spite tonight, tonight, this trouble bomb ignites
(You like trouble, oh you're in trouble, uh oh, uh oh)
You like trouble, you're in too deep, you need the lightning to get to sleep
You feel the crazy begin to creep, you're steep in danger, for that release
You're in trouble, you've got to feed, you want the drama to make you bleed
And it's got nothing to do with need, it's an impulse, it’s how you breathe
You like trouble
It's Following
Hunger, hungering, it's following, it's following, formless saking, it's following, it's following
It's a phantasm in the making, it's following, it's following, forceful beckoning, it's following, it's following
Reflection mirroring, it's following, it's following, expectation forgetting, it's following, it's following
It's a phantasm in the making, it's following, it's following, unending and breaking, it's following, it's following
Will it be satisfied if I fed it all my lies, would it be joy that it brings?
Will it be petrified if I showed it I was kind and pulled the sword from its wings?
It's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following
It's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following
Pulling stumbling, it's following, it's following, a shadow is shaping, it's following, it's following
It's a phantasm in the making, it's following, it's following, silently screaming, it's following, it's following, it's following
Will it be satisfied if I fed it all my lies, would it be joy that it brings?
Will it be petrified if I showed it I was kind and pulled the sword from its wings?
It's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following
It's a phantasm your spirit's making, it's following
Will it be satisfied if I fed it all my lies, would it be joy that it brings?
Would it be petrified if I showed I was kind and pulled the sword from its wings?
It's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following
It's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following
It's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following, it's following
Pour Me Out
"Always put the fires out" says the mother to the babe "Always learn your lesson well, this ain't no time to be brave"
You pick me up and put me down, teach me what it's all about, you fill me up and pour me out
You pour me out, pour me out
I build a universe inside my skull, while growing flowers for the funeral, you fill me up and pour me out
You pour me out, pour me out
All the lives will dim and fade, with the passing of the motorcade, and I remember
Staring in the dark as you pointed out stars, just waiting for the show to begin
And the blanket that you wrapped around me lay heavy on my skin
Just take me in your arms again, take me in your arms again
Take me in your arms again, take me in your arms again, in your arms again
"This is how the fire dies" says the father to the babe "Don't you never let 'em take you down, this ain't no time to behave"
You pick me up and put me down, you teach me what it's all about, you fill me up and pour me out
You pour me out, pour me out
I'll build a universe inside my skull, while growing flowers for the funeral, yeah you pick me up and pour me out
You pour me out, you pour me out
All the lives will dim and fade, with the rumbling passing of the motorcade, and we'll remember
Staring in the dark as we pointed out stars, just waiting for the show to begin
And the blanket that you wrapped around me lay heavy on my skin
Just take me in your arms again
Staring in the dark as and pointed out stars, just waiting for the show to begin
And the blanket that you wrapped around me lays heavy on my skin
Oh take me in your arms again, take me in your arms again, take me in your arms again, take me in your arms again
Take me in your arms again, take me in your arms again, just take me in your arms again
The Baptist
The heavy water wipes the memory clean, known as The Baptist, the cut that won’t bleed
Try as you may, it is the can but won't, unforgiving discipline, it’s clearly not broke
True misunderstanding, leaves without limbs, the most difficult landing, shut your mouth and begin
Lay the body down, the water is deep, your vision is sound. the past will repeat
Lay the body down, the water is deep, your vision is sound, the past will repeat
The heavy water, wipes the memory clean, known as The Baptist, the cut that won’t bleed
Try as you may, it is the can but won't, unforgiving discipline, it’s clearly not broke
Lay the body down, the water is deep, your vision is sound, the past will repeat
Lay the body down, the water is deep, your vision is sound, the past will repeat
Magical
It's magical.
I Know You're Leaving
The scream where no one hears, dream where no one sleeps, giving up half of the way back home
I know you’re leaving, I know you’re leaving
Images between the meaning of your feet leaving tracks
I know you’re leaving, I know you’re leaving
The danger of reappearing, pushing everything back
The danger of reappearing, pushing everything back
The scream where no one hears, dream where no one sleeps, giving up half of the way back home
I know you’re leaving, I know you’re leaving
Images between the meaning of your feet leaving tracks
I know you’re leaving, I know you’re leaving
The danger of reappearing, pushing everything back
The danger of reappearing, pushing everything back
The danger of reappearing, pushing everything back
The Watchers
This rusty turning of the key, blinding light falls through the door
And now, so much to answer for, shaking, hanging your head
You’ve been misled, oh, imprisoned now, in your creation
Whispering your invocation, inside your cell, in your little hell
It’s all you ever wanted, faces, searching for the shore
So far gone, so much to answer for, all the echoes of ambitions sank, and you’ve been misled
There is nothing owed, no debt to pay, no perfect words for you to say
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
It’s too little too late now, you’ve got to plead your case now
Ya, it’s too little too late now, there ain’t no escape now, no, no
There is nothing owed, no debt to pay, no perfect words for you to say
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight) oh no
And a turning of the key, blinding light falls through the door
And, now, so much to answer for, shaking, hanging your head, you’ve been misled
Oh, imprisoned now, in your creation, whispering your invocations, inside your cell
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (like a bird in flight)
Oh, from this moment (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes (love this moment)
Look at this room, tremble inside (love this moment)
Look at this place, look at these eyes
Feel them all upon you
