LYRICS
The End of the Ice Age
Need a new age sage
A guide to slide
Me off the ice
Think twice
About rolling the dice
… less loose grips slip

That’s The End of an era
Need a lesson on less error
A guide to slide
Me off the ice
Think twice
About rolling the dice
… less loose grips slip

They say it’s a new day
Could use some help finding my way
A guide to slide
Me off the ice
Think twice
About rolling the dice
… less loose grips slip

LYRICS
In between the cracks
The dust must
Often overseen
Us to dust
Why fuss
Why fret
On us
To get
With it
(at least for a bit… get with it!)

In between the dark
There’s flashes
In The End we embark
Us to ashes
Why fuss
Why fret
On us
To get
With it
(at least for a bit… get with it!)

Now I stop to think
We’re stardust
The missing link
Always dust
Why fuss
Why fret
On us
To get
With it
(at least for a bit… get with it!)

Have you seen decay?
Are you still O.K.?
Help is on the way
That is what they say
Make way
Headway

Have you seen dismay?
Are you still O.K.?
Help is on the way
That is what they say
Make way

Have you seen foul play?
Are you still O.K.?
Help is on the way
That is what they say
Make way

Did you say Mayday?
Are you still O.K.?
Help is on the way
That is what they say
Make way

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
I ventured on outside
Indentured to decide
Inside
I reckoned with reckon
I reckoned to jump-start
At heart
Take warmth in the nurture
… the nurture of nature
Survive
Take stock in the future
… the future of nature/nurture
Alive

On the ride
I adored the outside
Enamored worldwide
All tried
Then pondered the wonder
To wander in freedom
Awesome
Take warmth in the nurture
… the nurture of nature
Survive
Take stock in the future
… the future of nature/nurture
Alive

Have you tried
You ventured to outside
Been guided to decide
Inside?
You reckoned to reckon
Beckoned to re-start
Your heart?
Take warmth in the nurture
… the nurture of nature
Survive
Take stock in the future
… the future of nature/nurture
Alive

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
You had to ask
The right is wrong
The left is gone
Starting to think it won’t be long
You had to ask
The left has left
Can’t right the rest
Starting to think they don’t know best
The crowning of the irony
Attest

You had to ask
The right turned wrong
All left our song
Starting to think it won’t be long
You had to ask
The right has left
Left can’t digest
Starting to wonder what you suggest?
The crowning of the irony
Attest

LYRICS
Am I floating in the Milky Way
Is that how you say

  1. Adrift in space
  2. Flying through space
  3. Traveling in space

Atop a rock
In a space race
Hurling rapid’s pace
Hold the face
Gravity my friction
Naivety my diction

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The light at The End of the tunnel
Exit
The vortex of the funnel
(That’s it! Exit!)
Spilling out
Into the light
Flowing out
Onto a sea of flight
Going out
To be among the bright
Knowing doubt
Was left in the night
Finding out
It all will be alright

LYRICS
How can we
Open our eyes to see
The possibilities
How can we
O[en our ears to hear
The answers are near
Took off the hood
Blinders are gone
Misunderstood
Reveal the pawn

How can we
Open our eyes to see
The possibilities
How can we
O[en our ears to hear
The answers are near
No matter what they do
The power’s in you
The dreams you pursue
The ones that come true

How can we
Open our eyes to see
The possibilities
How can we
O[en our ears to hear
The answers are near
Go tell a friend
The story didn’t end
Open eyes and ears
Wipe away your fears

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Coming undone in double time
Going to end in grime and crime
Just wish…
It’ll all turn out fine
Light shine
Will send us a sigh
Gift of lift
(Gift uplift)

Coming undone and really fast
Going to see who can outlast
Just wish…
It’ll all turn out fine
Light shine
Will send us a sigh
Gift of lift
(Gift uplift)

Coming undone… a rapid rate
Going to ask the human race
Just wish…
It’ll all turn out fine
Light shine
Will send us a sigh
Gift of lift
(Gift uplift)

LYRICS
How can we
Please tell me
If maybe
We will see
Make it come to be
Forest through the trees
Fallen found the sound
Here for those to hear
Want to be clear

When can we
Please tell me
Hopefully
We will see
Make it come to be
Forest through the trees
Fallen found the sound
Here for those to hear
Want to be clear

Where can we
Please tell me
Oh, really?
Guess we’ll see
Make it come to be
Forest through the trees
Fallen found the sound
Here for those to hear
Want to be clear

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The last round isn’t quite over yet
There’s still time to place one final bet
Black or red
Live or dead
In the box
The key unlocks
Hips that walk
And lips that talk

So the fat lady hasn’t sung her song yet
There’s still time to get what you forget
Black or white
Wrong or right
In the box
The key unlocks
Hips that walk
And lips that talk

But we still haven’t found what we’re looking for
Certainly there’s got to be some more
Black as night
See the light
In the box
The key unlocks
Hips that walk
And lips that talk

How high the mountain is tall
How far the landslide will fall
Chance of an avalanche…

Black hearts could be what starts
Chance of an avalanche…
Dance!

Freedom
How long has it been
I don’t even know
Freedom
Sure hope that it can
Show up for the show

Hard to tell apart
Same from head to toes
Eyes, ears, and a nose
(Who knows?)

Dare hope to get some

LYRICS
Double or nothing
Roll again
Rather have something
To begin
Begin again
When I was young
First song sung
As soon as I could ramble
Son,
There’s no need to gamble
Riskless
Arbitrage sabotage
Making risk toothless
Riskless
All remains are gains
