LYRICS
Perhaps when you block-out ugly
You inhibit your ability to see?
A fault by default
Clearly on your part

Perhaps when you block-out ugly
You inhibit your ability to see?
If you think you can’t take it
It’s time to make it
Real

Where goes your nightmare
Where goes thee
Lost sole. Blank stare
Where goes your nightmare?
Do you wanna be?
Where goes your nightmare?
Dare go there

LYRICS
Why go to where the gray turns black
A place where there is no turning back
Move it on up ’cause the tide’s coming in
A whole new cycle getting ready to begin

The pages blowing in the wind
No time for Man to unwind
Rather make a pact to adapt
Wind-up. Then, we’re apt
To buoy a beginning
Of a brand new happening

Where the hydrogen and oxygen separate
The sea meets the sky
Where the clouds part you can start
To see the light
And, you just might
Put up a fight
For it’s the struggle to survive
That keeps us alive

LYRICS
Where the sky parts from the see
The ocean waves goodbye
There’s a sigh in the air
A sigh in the error

Why not choose what’s best for humanity
Instead of just for you or me
Overthrow the overlords
Of disparity

With the vision of the Viking
No one is best suited to be king
With the vision of Charlemagne
Try to alleviate suffering and pain

No need to cross an expansive sea
To contemplate the fate of society
No need for flight from the storm
No need for blight, nor for harm

Lyrics to the Song Correction
Lyrics to the Song Correction

The ability to sense when fear is near
Allowing you to steer clear of danger
The ability to sense when fair is near
Allowing you to see clearer and stronger

LYRICS
It’s tough… it’s so tough moving up
The food chain
At the very least, you just might get eaten
By a slightly larger beast

It’s tough… it’s so tough moving up
The food chain
Revolution of evolution
(Wonder) who will remain?

It’s tough… it’s so tough moving up
The food chain

You were such a sweet baby
No question. Not a maybe.
Now, you’ve grown inot a lady

Moments turn to memories
A day to a year
Don’t let time
Separate near

You’re here
It’s the time of your life
You’re here
There is no grief
Suspend disbelief

Do you want to bet your life
Guess you already did
Before it was said
You’re not immortal
You’re dead

When you pass by
Will you wave
Say hi?

Or, will you choose to lose
Doubt you’ll float
With that kind of dream

Senior week
Senior weak
Bring on the meek

The Day
The First. The Last.
The day the last is past

LYRICS
Though an optimist
I must admit
Some situations on Earth
Are bleak
We forgot to care
For the meek
Now, the social justification
That I did fear
Is much closer
Than just near

Radiate.
Be intimate
Transfer
With Her
Mother of the Earth

Give birth
Bring forth

Bring it down from on above
Radiate
Be intimate

If nothing really matters
Why even bother?
But, matter, it does
Better do your matter
Before you’re latter

No, no, no, don’t ever give up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, have faith in hope
La, la, la we can change the slope

We can glide

It’s all downhill

There is no inept tune
Hum some. Whistle some.
Hum. Whistle.
Shoot a sonic missile

Underneath the mistletoe
where it’s right to love all
Soar above the noise and confusion

The blessed from Atlantis
the bliss that is
Under the sea

The blessed from Atlantis

Floats above and saves us
