LYRICS
Lost in thought
Soul’s been bought
Shout out “Pick-up the pieces!”
Miracle that never ceases
Brought on thought
Bought and sold
Story’s old
Shout out “Pick-up the pieces!”
Miracle that never ceases
Brought on thought
Wisdom sought
Not or ought
Shout out “Pick-up the pieces!”
Miracle that never ceases
Brought on thought

bookmark_borderGaelic in Him

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do you think it’s the Gaelic in him
That posses him to jig?
A dash of Irish
Knew hymn
More or less roots dig
Trace it back through the saints
All day through the knights
If the veils too faint
Head to the light

Do you think it’s the Gaelic in him
That posses him to jig?
A dash of Irish
Knew hymn
More or less roots dig
The origins of the land
Come to understand
The age of romance
With “the dance”

bookmark_borderExit In

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Exit is the way to get back in
From where you leave
Is where you go
Exit is the way to get back in
The moment you leave
You begin
From when you leave
You come to know
The past you weave
The future show
The door swings both ways
In or out decays
Consider in the stays
How to spend the day?

bookmark_borderFlying in the Face

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Flying in the face of reality
At odds with rationality
Determined to define difficulty
Flying in the face of reality
At odds with rationality
Determined to define non-conformity
On a tangent
Out of bounds
Running rampant
Alarm sounds

Flying in the face of reality
At odds with rationality
Determined to define difficulty
Drying on my face… more tears flow
Odds are low at coming to know
Destined to define non-conformity
On a tangent
Out of bounds
Running rampant
Alarm sounds

Flying in the face of reality
At odds with rationality
Determined to define difficulty
Flying by the season of reason
There is no time for reason or rhyme
Destined to define non-conformity
On a tangent
Out of bounds
Running rampant
Alarm sounds

bookmark_borderHeart’s Been Cubed

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
They say his heart cubed that day
From that day forever clued
Heart’s been cubed (Heart³)
Forever clued

He never would behave that way
Once his heart grew that day
From that day forever clued
Heart’s been cubed
Forever clued

Feel the hate just fade away
(Hate dissipate)
Now that your love made way
Heart’s been cubed
Forever clued

“And what happened then? Well, in Whoville they say that the Grinch’s small heart grew three sizes that day. And then the true meaning of Christmas came though, and the Grinch found the strength of ten Grinches plus two.”

LYRICS
Standing round the wishing well
Show and tell
Tell me what you’re wishing for
Tell me more
Are you wishing for the poor
That there’ll be poor no more?

Standing round the wishing well
Show and tell
Tell me what you’re wishing for
Are you wishing “end the gore”
That there’ll be war no more?
Lord, do tell

Standing round the wishing well
Show and tell
Tell me what you’re wishing for
Do you wish peace will endure
That there’ll be no more war?
All is well

bookmark_borderI Heard

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
I heard the report
Day late and dollar short
Forgot to deal with the trash
Now there’s nowhere to stash
In case it’s not crystal clear
There’s no moving way from here
The solution to pollution
Is in the humane of the human

I heard the report
Breath as a last resort
Beasts have fouled the air
Don’t inhale out there
In case it’s not crystal clear
There’s no moving way from here
The solution to pollution
Is in the humane of the human

I heard the report
The ball is in our court
Not too late to confess
And clean up the mess
In case it’s not crystal clear
There’s no moving way from here
The solution to pollution
Is in the humane of the human

bookmark_borderStuck Inside the Bone

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Am I listening to what I’m hearing
Through the covering is the sound clearing
Or is it left all alone
Stuck inside the bone
Vibrating the skull of the dull

Am I listening to what I’m hearing
Through the covering is the sound clearing
I guess that it’s up to me
To see to set it free
Penetrating the skull of the dull

Am I listening to what I’m hearing
Through the covering is the sound clearing
Vibrating past the bone
Trying to make it home
To retain in the membrane

LYRICS
Hoping the days don’t fade away
Before the kids have a say
The power to understand
Lay in their hand
They’re looking out for all of us
Making the world more fabulous
They’re looking out for all of us
Giving faith to Miraculous

Hoping my days don’t slip away
Before the children make way (make way!)
The power to understand
Is at their command

Making the world more fabulous
They’re looking out for all of us

LYRICS
As we start to round the bend
To The End
I begin to see how we’ll begin
Again
A new way to see ultraviolet… x-ray
A knew way to be
A non-violent all day

As we start to round the bend
To The End
I begin to see how we’ll begin
Again
A new way to live
Carefree freewill
A knew way to give
Start the heart we will

As we start to round the bend
To The End
I begin to see how we’ll begin
Again
A new entity
Collective our soul
A knew clarity
Extrospective our goal

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Back to the dark
Headed to light
Out of the dark
In to insight
Just like you said
It’s happening
Inside my head
It’s happening
On the start
To the hear
And back again

Not looking back
Headed to light
Getting the knack
In to insight
Just like you said
It’s happening
Inside my head
It’s happening
On the start
To the hear
And back again

Back to the dark
Facing the light
Head out of dark
In to insight
Just like you said
It’s happening
Inside my head
It’s happening
On the start
To the hear
And back again

Hello opportunity!
Oh so glad you see in me
The possibility
To be what I can be
The mortality
To stress the urgency
Have faith in humankind

During this holiday time

Hello opportunity!
Oh so glad you see in me

To be what I can be

Just turn around
See what’s been found
Just turn around
There’s a whole world
To unfold
To envelop
Outside the envelope
Just turn around
See what’s been found
Just turn around

There’s a big wide world
Yet to view
And a lot of things
Left to do
[A lot of things I’d love to do
With you]

See what’s been found
Just turn around
There’s a big wide world
Yet to view
And a lot of things
Left to do
