LYRICS
Muse using musing
Engage the sage
Face to black
Then, fade back
Seeing the big picture
Coincidentally reveals the future
The stakes of learning from mistakes
The perils of errors
And the corpses it makes
On the up-take
Awake
To possibility of responsibility
So your third-I can see
Muse amused using musing

LYRICS
Are you “You are what you eat”?
Does your drummer beat
To a different beat?
Do da, da, dancing feet
Make you feel complete?
Are starting to jell?
Knowing inside all is well
Heart rage you can quell
You are starting to jell

LYRICS
Wait a second, Mister
Not so fast
You don’t have a free pass
Alas, at last
Cast your eyes on Miss Justice
Realize and cast your “I’s” for Miss Justice

Wait a minute, Sister
Here at last
Opportunity’s coming on fast
Amass our past
Cast your eyes on Miss Justice
Realize and cast your “I’s” for Miss Justice

Wind of change — a twister
Fate is cast
Raise your flag up the mast
Alas, at last
Cast your eyes on Miss Justice
Realize and cast your “I’s” for Miss Justice

No, it’s not ’64 anymore

No, it’s not ’84 anymore
No, not any more
No, it’s not ’94 anymore

No, it’s not ’14 you’ve seen
Do you know what I mean?

Has turned so obscene
How much more
Can you endure?

LYRICS
Have you ever wandered
Into the merriment
Of wonder
Did it make you wonder
Why not all the time
After all,
What is meant by meant
*Waterfall chime*
Though comes to mind
And, it’s mine
All the time
A vibrant merriment
Of wonder
No need to talk
Take her for a walk
Wander with wonder

LYRICS
Livin’ with the sin within
I’m living without
Livin’ with the sin within
Hear the devil shout
Have you tried to wrestle him about
Or is your faith in doubt
Watch the angels fall
At the sinners’ ball

Livin’ with the sin within
I’m living without
Livin’ with the sin within
Hear the devil shout
Better get down on your knees all day
Pray and pray you don’t have to pray
Watch the angels fallLivin’ with the sin within

Livin’ with the sin within
I’m living without
Livin’ with the sin within
Hear the devil shout
Crucifixes, priests, fixers, and silver knives
Gasp and grasp anything to save lives
Watch the angels fall
At the sinners’ ball

LYRICS
Up in heaven
There’s a saying
There is no up
Down in Hades
There’s a saying
There is no down
We all just hang around
You’ll see…
Without gravity
You don’t stay on the ground

Is it given
That right is right
Just left with left
If’s and maybes
Are on the route
Casting of doubt
Perhaps it’s for the best
Your East meets my West

What will float your boat?

LYRICS
Got the world in my scope
World’s at the end of its rope
Under fire from down below
Need the higher with the know
Don’t you think it’s time we go?

Got the world in my sights
See the wrongs and the rights
On fire the burn is slow
Need the higher with the know
Don’t you think it’s time we go?

Got the world in the crosshair
Justify to what is fair
Reign rain let it grow
Need the higher with the know
Don’t you think it’s time we go?

For “goodness” sake
We’ll lose track of the day

LYRICS
Horsing ’round on the playground
Get back up after falling down
Over time hearts grow cold
Do you want to feel old?
Maybe it’s time to put agin’ on hold
Bound for found
Breakdown unfold
Maybe it’s time to put agin’ on hold

Crack of dawn
Go to school
Can’t grow up
To be a fool
Over time hearts grow cold
Do you want to feel old?
Maybe it’s time to put agin’ on hold
Bound for found
Breakdown unfold
Maybe it’s time to put agin’ on hold

Snakes n’ snails
Puppy dog tales
Fun in the sun
Never fails
Over time hearts grow cold
Do you want to feel old?
Maybe it’s time to put agin’ on hold
Bound for found
Breakdown unfold
Maybe it’s time to put agin’ on hold

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
How far can we stretch this bizarre bazaar?
The toll to sell our soul
On par to too far
How far can we stretch this bizarre?
We’ve cleared beyond weird
Heard we passed absurd
Out-of-control? How droll
Oh, dear… there goes queer
How far?
Raised the bar
How far
Can we stretch this bizarre
I mean… how far…
From where we are
All ready? Break a record
Already broke the record
Heard passed absurd
All heady… how far?
Hard pressed
Impressed?
How far can we stretch this bizarre bazaar?

Working on quite content
When I’m next to you
Working on quite content
Enthusiasm won’t relent
’cause you do what it is you do
Your altruism is well spent
The way you do what it is you do
A natural fact
A lifelong pact
One heart
’till death do us part

Am I part of the cure
Got to wonder…

Where do I reside
Deep down inside
