bookmark_borderOn The Surface

LYRICS
On the surface of the third planet
You must be careful how you walk there
Tread lightly
Hold tightly
Thick in tension
Thin intentions
Totally unaware
Tread lightly
Hold tightly
Thick in friction
Lacking diction
From your God’s face shouts the words “Damn it!”
The lust for full bull
How dare we dare

Gets caught mid-throat
The question
Will the serum
Get through
To save you?

Thrown into the equation

Get through

Thrown into the equation

All around
Fixation
On stabilization

bookmark_borderWhere Time Went

LYRICS
Don’t know if I’ve been here before
Not that familiar any more
The days ahead aren’t like those behind
Let’s take a stroll… see what we find?

If you’re wondering where the time went
Time well spent… it’s irrelevant
More importantly is what comes to be
The relevency of what we see

Do know I have felt this before
Quite sure want to feel it some more
What’s in my head comes from the heart
Ready to roll… give love a start

Uh oh
The sun is falling
Into the Western sky
Oh my
Darkness descending
Am I understanding?

Around me
Does ego dissolve

What id just id
Uh oh
Superego
To the rescue?
What shall ensue….

LYRICS
Is that how it goes
Those ribbons and bows
Lipstick on a pig
Have you flipped your wig?

Is that your story
Minus fame and glory
Getting hard to rent
Blatant embellishment

Well, now does it End?
The moral we send
Avoiding disaster
Happily everafter

bookmark_borderEye Tooth Truth

LYRICS
We see with the eye tooth
The truth
We see in pain humor
Of the funny bone
No, you’re not alone
Now, get off the phone
Look me in the eye
Tooth and nail
We are humane, sigh
Never fails
Teeth and nails
Hoisting sails
In case you ain’t heard
Your herd immunity
Herd mentality
Insanity
Allocated to the first, at last
Your heard immunity
In vanity
In God’s name?
How lame!

Shades of mean unforeseen
The envy of the neighborhood

LYRICS
It’s time to go
I’ve come to know
It’s time to go
The glaciers will melt
From lack of snow
It’s the hand we dealt
Doesn’t it blow
(Woe)

It’s time to go
I’ve come to know
It’s time to go
The oceans will rise
From melting snow
Let’s realize
Humans cause flow
(Woe)

It’s time to go
I’ve come to know
It’s time to go
The mountains will sink
Dominoes in a row
God, what did we think?
Am I friend or foe?
(Woe)

LYRICS
The left is gone
The right has wronged
It makes me pause to ponder
The human race
Has lost its place
I pause…
I scratch my head and wonder

The down is out
No out about
It makes me pause to ponder
The human race
Has lost its place
I pause…
I scratch my head and wonder

What’s out is in
The End. Begin.
It makes me pause to ponder
The human race
Has lost its place
I pause…
I scratch my head and wonder

LYRICS
Deserts and monsoons
The rats and baboons
Dodging bullets
And hand grenades
Shifting shortcuts
Into grand parades
Searching or singing for praise?

Venus and full moons
From mars
Full loons
Dodging bullets
And hand grenades
Shifting shortcuts
Into grand parades
Searching or singing for praise?
