bookmark_borderFrom Slight of Seeing the Light

LYRICS
Twisted… tormented
… has love relented
In the silence of reverence
A reference to existence
Do I take a stance?
(Do I take the chance?)
And then again
I begin
… from slight of seeing the light

bookmark_borderRearview

LYRICS
Watching the world go up in flames
In your rearview mirror
Oh the shame of who’s to blame
The major and minor

The clocks tick their same ole’ song
The clocks tock their same ole’ dance
One wonders exactly how long
’til we get a second chance

Wanting in our retrospect
To have been the change
Jaw dropping from “what the heck?!?!”
Sure turned out so strange
(chorus)

Moving on to a new habitat
Can you imagine that?
Hope there’s plenty of air to share
Sure hope we get there
(chorus)

bookmark_borderCenter Of Gravity

LYRICS
Ohhh where’s my center of gravity
Oh the levity
So if in brevity
My relativity
[I’m… I am… thinking I am… therefore for… I am]
Relative to the mass of my ass
Speculative if the matter matters
The pull you have on me
Gravity
I see… through… transparently… it may be… maybe
Through to you
I see… through… transparent… apparent… it may be… maybe
Through to you
Ohhh where’s my center of gravity?

Another day older
A lot more perplexed
You are no bolder
With muscle flexed
Since when did the scene
Turn so mean
Return to the cream
Resurge the dream
Since when did the scene
Turn so mean
Return to the cream
Rising uprising

Another day older
Yet no more wise
Heart growing colder
Still I’m surprised
(chorus)

Another cold shoulder
Shivers my spine
Should I hold her
She’ll feel fine
(chorus)

LYRICS
In the space between my ears
Wishing everyone hears
In the space…
Between my ears
It seems to me a symphony
To life and the living glory
To have been given
Birth on Earth
Thank my mother
And father
In heaven
Saying:
A men a man again

You do the hoochie coo
You do, you do, you do
You do the hoochie coo
Held together with cosmic glue
Now knowing what I knew
La de da de da da de do

Better than the voodoo
You do, you do, you do
Better than the voodoo
Held together… interstellar glue
Now knowing what I knew
La de da de da da de do

No way to feel blue
Thank you, thank you, thank you
No way to feel blue
Held together… celestial glue
Now knowing what I knew
La de da de da da de do

LYRICS
Is the itty bitty
So small after all
Down to the nitty gritty
Of substantial

The eye in so-sigh-it-y
Me and responsibility
Relative to the entirety

Do you hear the tolling of the bell
Beyond the depths of the wishing well
Does one choose heaven or hell
I figure I might just as well

Is the down and dirty
So filthy after all
Down in the nitty gritty
Of substantial

LYRICS
What is that that I see
Floating in front of me
How could it really be
Do my eyes deceive me?
Floater drifting by
The inside of my eye
Floater floating by
The inside of my I

What on Earth shall I be
Bound by my mortality
Life’s certainty
#uck all that destiny

So this is your reality
Floaters you can not see
Oh I pity
Those void of fantasy

LYRICS
Arrive at the doorstep
A secret that’s well kept
A surprise is due for you
An innovation in invitation
Rehearsing in reverse
A meditation in activation
Arrive to bring it alive

We’ll bring our own party
Can hardly be tardy
A surprise is due for you

Well how did you like it
We hope quite a good bit
The surprise was due for you

bookmark_borderTemptress Of Joy

LYRICS
Since when did being a good boy
Mean you couldn’t have a fun
Perhaps the temptress of joy is coy
And your reality done
Turning your world upside down
All your silly notions start to drown
How’s it feel
Knocked back on your heel
For real?

Since when did being a good man
Mean you couldn’t get some
Perhaps the temptress of joy is coy
And your reality done
Turning your world upside down
All your silly notions start to drown
How’s it feel
Knocked back on your heel
For real?

Since when did being a wise man
Mean you can’t appear dumb
Perhaps the temptress of joy is coy
And your reality done
Turning your world upside down
All your silly notions start to drown
How’s it feel
Knocked back on your heel
For real?

bookmark_borderThe Feel

LYRICS
Now here we lay
No longer led astray
The victor of the day
Now peace is on the way
O.K.
Oh the feel of love we’re soaking in
Let the fantasy we’ve dreamed begin

Took the load off our feet
Makes us light in the head
Though tired… feeling beat
Not quite ready for bed
… she said
Oh the feel of love we’re soaking in
Let the fantasy we’ve dreamed begin

Forever is a lifetime
To ask you to be mine
To put it quite simply
Be the one to ask me
My plea
Oh the feel of love we’re soaking in
Let the fantasy we’ve dreamed begin

LYRICS
What went up
Use to come down
Now there’s no logic
Anywhere around
The clocks are running backwards
In reverse takes you forward
Left left right
Right left out of spite

What goes around
Use to come around
Now there’s no reason
Anywhere around

What comes to life
Use to die
Don’t ask why
Death we do defy

LYRICS
Do your skies turn blue
Do your dreams come true
Do you enjoy doing the things you do?

You’re never alone
When Earth’s your home
The greatest gift of all
Is living ’til the fall
Of the curtain
(That’s for certain)

Do your skies turn bright
Is your life alright
Do the things you’re doing give you delight?

Are your skies cloud free
Is your mood happy
Do you enjoy being the things you be?
