LYRICS
There seems to be something missing in the middle of our mission
It starts at the heart
There’s something missing in the middle of our mission
Seems to start right at the heart

Something missing in the middle of our mission
Look at that
It starts right at the heart

Guess you don’t know about the glow?
You’d think we’d know about the glow

Something missing in the middle of our mission
Ain’t feelin’ much like fishin’
They can wait to cast my bait
I already know
It starts at the heart
I know it’s with the flow
It starts at the heart
There ain’t no glow!
It starts at the heart

The glow flow starts at the heart

LYRICS
It stands to reason
If the other side of the other of Earth is made of earth
Making me wonder… is the other side of living… more like earth or heaven

It stands to reason
Maybe the opposite season
But nevertheless
More or less —
Earth
(Heaven on Earth)

It stands to reason
On the other side

On the other side of Earth
What’s it made of… earth?
On the other side

No, not quite ready to ride
If it’s high tide here is it low tide there
I don’t want to arrive at the wrong tide
On the other side
If it’s high tide here is it low tide there
If so, I want to beware
On the other side

Graced with a human face

Do you foresee the future in your future?
Are you sure

Do you foresee the future in your future?

Imagine that the present of your future
In the present of your future

Well fancy that
Your future in the present
Kind-of feels like it’s right here
So very near

Imagine that your future in our presence
A present in our present
The essence of existence in our presence

The essence of the present in our presence

Soaking up the days like soaking up the rays

The present of the present

LYRICS
I had this crazy notion
To create a concoction — Love Potion

I had this crazy notion
To create a concoction
Love potion

A love potion
Spreadin’ from ocean to ocean

Upon suggestion
Create a concoction
Injection
Straight to the heart
Like Cupid’s arrow
And a bow… ya know?
Straight through the heart
A love potion
Can you help the love grow
Spread it from ocean to ocean
Could be the solution
To our situation
The creation
Of a concoction
A love potion

A love potion
Set in motion
Love potion

Solution to our situation
Our hell-bound self-annihilation
We need some new ventilation
It’s hard to breath
I think our hearts will seize
And our brains will freeze

A love potion

If we start to look in our heart
The soul-ution will be the potion
And the potion will spread from ocean to ocean

LYRICS
Out of the web in my cob
With a wink and a nod
For which I yearn to learn
I learn…
I can see… it’s already a memory

Clearing the webs from my cob

Clearing the webs from my cob
With a wink and a nod
For all which I yearn to learn
I can see clearly
It’s already a memory

I can see…
Was already a memory

From within
I begin
To see
Quite clearly

Clearing the webs from my cob
With a wink and a nod
All for which I yearn to learn
I discern
I can see clearly
Already a memory

Oh,

Ooooooooh I get it

Solution to the puzzle
Take off the muzzle
I see
Freedom of speech isn’t free
If the word isn’t spoken
And the slumbered woken

I get it
Tell the world what it’s about
What it is we’ve figured out

I can see
Freedom of speech isn’t free
When enslaved
It takes a human to behave
Soooo please don’t save
Your contribution
To the solution
Of the puzzle
Take off the muzzle

Before I step into some real….

Maybe I should pay attention
At least just a little bit
Before I step into some real dog….

We keep going with destruction
We won’t quit
Now, we’re steppin’ in some real dog….
Wanna see a lady through a fit
Just try steppin’ in dog….
Stiletto shoes
Who… whose?

Oh to be so fortunate
To fall into a bottomless pit
Oh no? Sure does beat the smell
Of when ya fell in dog….

Maybe we should be careful
At least just a little bit

If we step in that….

LYRICS
The ocean has begun to come in
It’s comin’ in

The ocean
Did begin
Comin’ in
And again
It’s comin’ in
Can you save me from the wave
’cause the ocean is comin’ in
It did begin
It’s comin’ in
It did begin
The ocean
In

When you look out your front door
Do you see the same scene anymore
Not the same as before?
The ocean is movin’
It’s comin’ in
The ocean
Is comin’ in

Go ahead step outside you may find there’s no place to hide
You can’t rewind
I think you’ll find you can’t rewind
Can’t take away your sin
Now the ocean will begin
It’s comin’ in
You can’t erase your sin
Can’t erase your past sin
Can’t just wash it away
Haha… not to save the day

And tragically it’s happenin’ to me
I can see when I look out my front door
The scene is not the same any more
I’d be lying if I said the trees weren’t dying
And if the ocean wasn’t knockin’
It’s comin’ in

LYRICS
Adrift in your drought
Adrift in your sea (see) of doubt

Afloat in a boat
Can you see in the sea
There’s nothing for you to drink
So what do you think
You will do?

Saltwater all about
But you’re in your drought
’cause you can’t think of what to drink
That won’t put you at risk

Like the cops will frisk
Thinking they’re at risk
There’s nothing to be found
There’s nothing around
Just sea as far as the eye (I) can see
Adrift in a drought
No doubt

Adrift in your drought
Your sea of doubt
Adrift in your doubt
See of drought

Maybe a brisk yanking about
Is what you need
Maybe you’ll concede
That you’re up $hit crick
Without a paddle
It’s no cosmic riddle
No time to diddle
No time to daddle
It’s time to paddle
Adrift in a drought
Beyond a doubt
Adrift in a drought
Beyond a doubt

Adrift in a drought
There’s no doubt
Self-doubt
Adrift in a drought
Self-doubt

It’s so hard to keep believing
When you keep deceiving
… keep deceiving

I can hardly keep believing

Tired of needing
Tired of kneeling
I’m on my knees for you
And what do you do
You keep deceiving
How can I keep believing

I do believe I heard your story
Oh distress… it’s gory
There ain’t much to bless with your story

Getting harder and harder and harder
To keep believing
You keep deceiving
No more deceiving

I regret there’s no respect
I’ll be leaving
Not believing
You’re deceiving
