LYRICS
Lookout,
Look out!
Within
The mantras begin
Shine out
From in
Bring being to been
Or, oh, I see
It never will be

Look out!
Within
Extrospect begin
Shine out
Within
Bring being to been
Or, oh, I see
It would never be
Bringing being to been
Again and again
All my life
That’s all I am
Bringing being to am

bookmark_borderHammer Of Justice

LYRICS
The hammer of justice
Is poised above us
And sooner or later
The hammer will fall
After all,
The hammer will fall

Not a juror nor spectator
We’re on trial on the while
The hammer of justice poised above us
And sooner or later
The hammer will fall
After all,
The hammer will fall

Where’s the support
For order in the court
For whom does the gallows’ pole toll
The hammer of justice poised above us
And sooner or later
The hammer will fall
After all,
The hammer will fall

It’s hard to bail
When you have no bail
Looks like we’ll spend the night in jail
With the hammer of justice poised to fall
And sooner or later
The hammer will fall
After all,
The hammer will fall

LYRICS
Proven once again
Truth is stranger than fiction
Yet, my reaction
Disbelief cloaked in grief
Proven again

Proven once again
That karma is your kin
Justice is amongst us
Relief stoked in belief
Proven again

Doing what you’re told
The story grows old
Time to take responsibility
For you society

LYRICS
Once in the turquoise waters
Over pearl-like sand
Swam
See the sea… barely
Transparent
Translucent
With flowing of the living
Giving
The appearance of sea
Illuminance of see
Third-eye kind
Raise the blind
Enter the light of enlightenment
Meant as in this moment
In the circumstance of Illuminance

bookmark_borderDisillusional

LYRICS
I’ve become disillusioned
At the delusion of your vision
The delusion that’s ahead
In your head
Talk about believing in the living dead

I believe… I’ve become numb and dumb
Overcome by your delusion
Horrid torrid vision
That’s ahead in your head

Take back our station
Without hesitation
Get disillusional
In your heart and in your soul
Let it start in your heart
With the goal to fill your soul

Take off running
Spread your wings
Brings beautiful things
Take-off

Seeing a new way
Today

Looking down, way down below
Know
The love from above

bookmark_borderThis Could Take All Day

LYRICS
This could take all day
Waiting for the night
Earth just spins away
From the light
And, don’t forget
The sun won’t set
The Earth just spins away
Sure as death and taxes…
On its axis

This could take all year
To watch the seasons run
’til the Earth gets back here
From around the sun
And, don’t forget
The sun stays set
Earth’s orbit doesn’t veer
Another orbit around the sun
One more orbit!
… just for fun

LYRICS
Acting like you haven’t heard it before
No more “for gore”
Pro-war no more
See to shinning sure
The tide rolls in and out
No doubt
The tide will (surely) turn
The living (likely) learn

The seasons always change
’til Man came to re-arrange
Taking things to the extreme
Weather or not knowing what it means

LYRICS
Never before have I had to say
Things can’t keep going on this way
No way!

How long does it take to make
Millions of years old ice?
Better think twice
How long does it take to make
Exhaust sub-surface suffice?
Throwin’ dice

How long does it take to make
The sea subside
Higher tide
How long does it take to make
The atmosphere clear
In arrears

How long does it take to make
The extinct think
Of their stick… or our stink.. ya think?
How long does it take to make
Us say we made a mistake
Earth’s wake?
Earthlings awake!

LYRICS
A one-eyed pirate
And a two-eyed jack
Cut the cards
And don’t look back
(There’s no looking back)
All’s fair in love and war
Now more than ever before
Forked tongue… irate
We’ll see who will crack
Cut the cards
There’s no cutting slack
And so it starts
All for the love
Of the Queen of Hearts
’till death do we part
Literal proverb living the word
Live by the sword
Die by the sword

LYRICS
Heaven on Earth
Given a birth
Life unfurled
Joy to our world
On a wander
Stop to ponder
In a wonder wonderland
Taking her hand I understand
Glories of the grand

Won’t let them waste away
Precious is the day
Take advantage of the birth
For what it’s worth
On a wander
Stop to ponder
In a wonder wonderland
Taking her hand I understand
Glories of the grand
