bookmark_borderA Better Bet Yet

LYRICS
Said it before
Better say it once more
“Get heading for the door”

The more I implore
The more you ignore
Let’s see who will endure?
A better bet yet
Let’s not forget
The young and innocent
The ‘ole human race
Trashed the place
The dumb and arrogant
Resolve to solve your difference
Revolve to evolve indifference
Resolve to solve your difference
Evolve to involve our essence
The essence of presence

bookmark_borderThe End of It

LYRICS
Given the circumstances
All the second chances
Who would have thought
It would End like that?

Chosen circus dances
All the second glances
Look what we’ve bought
Could be The End of it
.. and… shit…
I was just getting use to the habit
Of living
Love living
Keep giving
Of love
Keep giving living
Life on the edge of a knife

LYRICS
!, 2, 3
How far to go?
You or me
Do we even know?
Our time with sunlight is finite
Let’s shine insight tonight

3, 2, 1
Next is zero
Our time’s come
What else to know?
Our time with sunlight is finite
Let’s shine insight tonight
Try with all our might
Till we get it right
Let our brilliance ignite
Your lovelight

2, 5, 4
How much more?
5, 6, 7
Before we’re in heaven
Our time with sunlight is finite
Let’s shine insight tonight

Can we grow?
Infinite we yearn
Yes or no
Will we ever learn?
Our time with sunlight is finite
Let’s shine insight tonight
Try with all our might
Till we get it right
Let our brilliance ignite
Your lovelight

Mention a notion
Point the direction
Just to be fair
I’m already there
For those who care:
We’re of like mind
Define kind
Try to be fair

And the going gets rough
We can be
In harmony

We’ll help you get there
As times get tough

And some to spare

As times get tough
And the going gets rough
We can be

LYRICS
O.K. here we go
Do you think so
Or really know so
Do you think so
Or merely hope so?
O.K. here we go
Can’t wait!
Out of the starting gate
Canned hate
Sent to the pearly gates
Replays your days

O.K. here we go
Do you think so
Or really know so
Do you think so
Or merely hope so?
O.K. here we go
That’s great
No longer have to wait
That hate
Gone to dissipate

O.K. here we go
Do you think so
Or really know so
Do you think so
Or merely hope so?
O.K. here we go
Above
All there’s love
Let love
Rise above

LYRICS
I can feel it
Can you seal it?
Fly above the clouds
I’ve come to share
You’ve come to care?
Try the love on crowds
Let the reign fall
Love fall on all
Do unto the morning dew
Reason season
Flavor it we’ll savor it
With passion’s fruit

I can hear it
Can you steer it?
Fly above the storm
I hear it clear
Both far and near
Let’s make love the norm
Let the reign fall
Love fall on all
Do unto the morning dew
Reason season
Flavor it we’ll savor it
With passion’s fruit

Now we know it
Can we grow it
Rise above the hate
The time is now
The rhyme is how
Pour the love… why wait?
Let the reign fall
Love fall on all
Do unto the morning dew
Reason season
Flavor it we’ll savor it
With passion’s fruit

bookmark_borderThe Good Thing

LYRICS
Give it my all
Give it the most
Living in full
Before I’m ghost
Can see flesh can’t stand on it’s own
Man blessed with blood and bone
Can’t stand alone
The good thing about heartstrings
Is their attachment
To the soul
Angels sing
While cupid swings
With love achievement
The goal

Through time may test
Give it my best
Sow flow and zest
Pre-laid-to-rest
Can see flesh can’t stand on it’s own
Man blessed with blood and bone
Can’t stand alone
The good thing about heartstrings
Is their attachment
To the soul
Angels sing
While cupid swings
With love achievement
The goal

Give it my all
Give it the most
Living in full
Before I’m ghost

bookmark_borderFlathead World

LYRICS
I suppose in a pinch
It’s better than nothing
I’d prefer to have the punch
At the party
Phillipshead in a flathead world
Bold n’ told faltered facts
What the situation lacks…
Is heart
Right from the start
More heart

Time erodes as we debate
Over nothing
Transfer “out-to-lunch”
To “join the party”
Phillipshead in a flathead world
Bold n’ told faltered facts
What the situation lacks…
Is heart
Right from the start
More heart

I propose inch by inch
Adds up to something
It arose as the cinch
Of the party
Starhead in a starhead world
Stumble into humble
Situation’s lovable
Right from the the heart
Right from the start
Adore heart
Love love

Your eyes shine of the stars
The heavens in your soul
Come near
Come far
Make a heart full
You really look pretty tonight

My universe is what you are
Every moment never one dull
Come near
Come far
Make a heart full
You really look pretty tonight

You are the night’s delight
You are the night

A love song for the night.

LYRICS
Over the top
Under the neath
Showing the teeth
Smile! Why not?
When you put on a happy face
You tend to light up the place

Over under
In between
Why not ponder
Crackin’ up the scene
When you put on a happy face
You tend to light up the place

Above beyond
Beyond above
Become the dawn
Shine on the love
When you put on a happy face
You tend to light up the place

LYRICS
Does anyone anywhere know
How far to go?
Does everyone everywhere go
Too far to know?
May I suggest
The answers to your riddle
Is in the middle
Of your chest
… about the rest….

Does anyone anywhere care
Where we should start?
Is everyone everywhere aware
Start with “at heart”?
May I suggest
The answers to your riddle
Is in the middle
Of your chest
… about the rest….

Does anyone anywhere part
From the above?
To give a part of your heart
And share the love?
May I suggest
The answers to your riddle
Is in the middle
Of your chest
… about the rest….

LYRICS
I came upon a ramblin’ weed
Yes, indeed
She said, “I wish you would concede.”
Yes, indeed
Feed our flower

My ignorance begot regret
Better bet
Had to transfer my mindset
Better yet
Feed our flower
Our hour to shower
The power…
… of love

Best to call you by name I suppose?
On the nose
Are you Violet or are you Rose?
One of those?
Feed our flower
Our hour to shower
The power…
… of love
