LYRICS
Crack the backdoor
Nature’s ensured
(Open the door?)
The future’s for sure
Depending what you do
Crack that door
A ‘lil more

Let us explore
Hidden treasure
(Open the door?)
The future’s for sure
Depending what you do
Crack that door
A ‘lil more

bookmark_borderClear

LYRICS
Guess it’s starting to show
Where we’re really going
Guess I’m getting to know
Which way the wind’s blowing
The day draws near
The smoke will clear

The sprouts starting to grow
Toward the sun going
Guess it’s starting to show
Which way the rains flowing
The day draws near
Harvest is here

To yes from a no
The love starts growing
Up high from down low
Let love begin showing
The day is here
Sound the “all clear”

bookmark_borderFull-circle

LYRICS
A rabbit scurries circular
In a you’re blur
Your blur
Jumping off the path
Give the dog a bath
As the hound
Comes round
Chasing his tail’s trail
Run the circle again
Run around ’round

A tortoise and a hair
Had to get somewhere
All’s fair
Hair split
And that’s not the half of it
Amphibian for the win
One/won
Run the circle again
Running in circles
Chasing squirrels
In between
Scene: seen

LYRICS
While the ship
Is going down
Bite your lip
Conceal the frown
(Or)
Capsize your hypocrisies
Let conspiracies drown
Actualize open eyes
And turn this ship around

Star aboard the starboard
Be stern upon your stern
Bow out
Port to port
Dear Lord,
Don’t go overboard
You’ve yourself to thank
Forget walking the plank
You can bail out of this
Set sail
Amphitrite in sight
Blow her a kiss
Bail out of this

bookmark_borderWe Must Be in Heaven

LYRICS
To think we (I) had heaven and earth
From birth
The first opening of eyes
Realize
We (I) had heaven on Earth
Overcome the slanted
Taken for granted
A slight to some sort-of right
Don’t let it slip away
Won’t let it slip away
For what it’s worth
We had heaven on Earth

bookmark_borderNeedless

LYRICS
I don’t need that much
Just basic needs and such
Some things like strings
To touch
And strum
(Create a tune and hum)
When the time has come
To call the day done
Bid adieu to light
Say goodnight
On the good day
An extra pint
Grace is on her way
To swing and sway under moonlight
Until another day

LYRICS
You can huff… huff and puff
You can huff and puff
Knock my door down
I’ll call your bluff
And raise you two, too
’cause I ain’t coming out
That’s not what isolation’s about
Beyond a doubt
Your normal’s not normal
After all
Guess the moral’s…
You’re not normal

LYRICS
I don’t know what you mean
Saying you love what is mean
Or if you mean you mean mean
Comin’ clean
Let the hungry eat
Be damned your conceit
Put shoes on their feet
Be damned your deceit
It’s not that hard to do
Is there no convincing you?

I don’t know how to take
Saying you love what is hate
Or if you hate you hate hate
Too late?
Let the hungry eat
Be damned your conceit
Put shoes on their feet
Be damned your deceit
It’s not that hard to do
Is there no convincing you?

LYRICS
Suspended disbelief… in awe
The Commander In Grief
No relief
Is there no relief
Suspended disbelief… in awe
To the jaw dropping gall

Suspended disbelief… in awe
A mounting pile of skull
Suspended disbelief… in awe
In denial of the dull
Suspended disbelief… in awe
The damnedest Christian belief

bookmark_borderWhat’s So Funny

LYRICS
Amused at my own sense of humor
I could go on for an hour
Laugh so hard I almost cry
Grab my side like I’m gonna die
Won’t take much
Slightest touch
Sets me free
Of any misery

Laughter is the best medicine
Time and time again
All the while crack a smile
Living life is bliss in style
Won’t take much
Slightest touch
Sets me free
Ahh… the remedy

bookmark_borderIn the Grand Scheme of Things

LYRICS
Just a placeholder
That’s growing older
The king did anoint
To the right of the decimal point
In the grand scheme of things
Witnessing what mortality brings

Though small from far away
Growing bigger day to day
It takes every slice of pi
To measure up under the sky
In the grand scheme of things
Hearing how freedom rings

When oh so miniscule
Why stubborn as a mule
What difference will it make
In the position I take
In the grand scheme of things
Unless it’s your heart that sings

LYRICS
You don’t owe me anything
I don’t owe you anything
Except for whether whatever we forever bring

What is the essence of our presence
In whatever together we forever bring

Hint: our footprint
From livin’ in

Livin’ in The Damn Damage Age

LYRICS
Why don’t we agree to see clearly
Dreams aren’t clouds in coffee
This dream is reality
Starring you and me as we
In our entirety
The naked truth of your birthday suit
In the bittersweet suite of the Age’s
Final days

Why don’t we agree to see clearly
Dreams aren’t pure fantasy
This dream is reality
Starring you and me as we
In our entirety
The naked truth of your birthday suit
In the bittersweet suite of the Age’s
Final days

Why don’t we agree to see clearly
Dreams you thought wouldn’t come to be
This dream is reality
Starring you and me as we
In our entirety
The naked truth of your birthday suit
In the bittersweet suite of the Age’s
Final days
