LYRICS
In the sanctuary of humanity
There’s humor
And quite a bit of wit
Amazing swaddling
Open to an open
Embrace
Station to station
Interface
A connectivity
Of authenticity
Heart to heart
A part
Of collectivity
Not a sole soul
Can be found
Not a sole soul
Around
(look around)
When you get down to it
There’s more humor
And quite a bit of wit

LYRICS
Here we go
But I don’t know
If we know
Which way to go
Did you see
Lemmings running into the sea
Makes them stiff
Buffalo over a cliff
After all
Is our boat afloat
Over a waterfall
Know what I mean
As we’re drifting downstream
Runaway
Train and tracks part ways
Stop my feet
From this dead end street
Oh, now I get it
There’s our exit
Oh, no, we won’t quit
Until we make it
No hesitation
For destination

LYRICS
Ummm…
Will it be this millennium
You know…
The one we’re in
I’m not hearin’
You’re believin’
I’m not hearin’
Your believin’
Let me see…
I’d even settle for a century
The one in which we happen to “be”
Hope to see us being
If time is growing shorter
Maybe it’d be better
If we got started
Sooner
Rather
Than belated
Hated hated
And, loved to love

LYRICS
Searching for humanity
Glowing with sanity
Quick with logic
And to aid the sick
Kiss of compassion
Always in fashion
Praying for the praying
… just saying
Careful when ya kneel
Fully grasp the deal?

Quick with logic
And to thin the thick
Kiss of compassion
Always in fashion

Quick with logic
And to light the wick
Kiss of compassion
Always in fashion

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do you think the drop
In land’s altitude
Has to do with the drop
In man’s attitude
If I may be so bold
The weight of the world
Yes, let the story be told
The devastation of land
By the human hand
The rise of the sea
Level to you and me
The fall of mankind
When there’s no see to find
Starting to understand
A continent is an island
Standing on sinking land
Isn’t going as planned
Going under
Under “stand”?

LYRICS
The Genesis of this: Day 1
A day is a day one
How dare I stare into the eye
Of I
A fine line
Between vain
And insane
If id did let
You know
Ego
Get the best of him
Alas, too fast
Superhero
Super ego
You know
Is going to rescue you

The Genesis of this: Day 2
After daylight, night
Might shift the mood
In attitude
Though thick logic
Can’t elude
Then, me and you
The Genesis of this:
Day 2, too
Of me and you

LYRICS
Is it just me
Butt… in all his majesty
Was the emperor wearing no clothes?
Not even close?
The naked truth
Buck naked truth
Does the buck stop… hear?
Like his clothes
I suppose
That is clear
Doesn’t take a sleuth
To discover the truth
The naked truth
Doesn’t take a sleuth
To know the truth
To “no” the truth
The naked truth

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Here I go
Getting a little retro
With my, “Peace, Love & Understanding”
Well…
What’s so funny about it
Anyway?
Love to hear/here
What you have to say
(today)
Make it clear, dear
Instead of hearsay
All serious about
Money, money, money
But what’s grabbing me:
What’s so funny?
Rather skies sunny
If I’m going to “sale”
The see
So can you tell me
What’s so funny?

LYIRCS
I’m not sure you’re understanding
… not sure you can take this standing
Might want to put down
Your coffee
Might want to sit down
n’ listen to me
Might want to put down
Your drink
’cause I don’t think
You understand
What’s at hand
They’re blowing up the dam?
Damn!
(The damn dam)
Hope you know
How to go
With the flow
Looks like there going to be a flood
UP to your ears in mud
On a whim
Learn to swim?
Getting down
Getting down now
Getting down with going down
Going down stream
Know what I mean
Current in the current

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What do I know about naught?
Not a whole lot
What is there to know?
So
What
If i don’t know
Nothing about nothing
I’ll tell you what, though
I’m looking for something
In everything
They say
Where there’s a will
There’s a way
Since my will is still
Free
It occurs to me
Instead of bide my time
I’m…
Going to spend mine
Pay the bill
With freewill

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
’tis in the twilight of the dawning
Spawning
Skepticism
In the realization
We’re all drowning
Eventually starved
Of living
However;
From now till never
The “I’m” till I transpire
The time till I expire
Is an event
Every moment
Whether running silent
Or shining brilliant
I’m going to let it shine
Shine, shine, shine

LYRICS
Good morning, sunshine!
Find it works out fine
Good morning, sunshine!
Just avoid the grind

Rise and shine
And get up another time
Rinse. Repeat.
Then back to your retreat

(chorus)

Push and shove
Trying to get above
Loop repeat
Back to your retreat

(chorus)

Another day
A dollar your way
What’s the worth
Of a sole soul’s birth?

(chorus)

bookmark_borderBeauty Full

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The things that scare me
Janu-hairy
Scary
Frightening me
In the eye of the beholder
It’s not me I want to see
Looking through to you
To be in beauty… full
Full of beautiful
Plain to see
Not half empty
Full!
Beautiful

[Break / Jam]

Though without a soul
It’s only skin deep
From within the whole
Won’t you let it seep
In the eye of the beholder
Hold her
In the eye, I hold her
Or maybe, it’s she…
… holding me?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In the grand scheme
What do I mean
Will it seem the scene
I’ve seen
Is left as a dream
Feel lame
Try to explain
The nightmare they hold dear
Try to explain
The pain… insane?
Why paint your dream in fear
Can’t have a spark
And it dark
Me, I’d rather see the light
In spite of spite
The light
I mean low to no mean
In my dream
Should I be a mortal
Left in total
As an immortal perpetual dream scene
If that’s how I’m seen…?

bookmark_borderIn The Image Of God

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In a fit of passion
I’ve managed to fashion
Man in the image of God
Damn the torpedoes and spare the rod
In the time of the season
Search for rhyme in the reason
A reason… a reason to be
Life so the soul can see
With the best of intentions
Disregarding the conventions
Free of the chains and locks
Far outside of the box
Closing in on the heart of the sunrise
Dawn of the dawning I realize
In a fit of passion
I’ve managed to fashion
Man in the image of God
Damn the torpedoes and spare the rod
Man in the image of God
