You are the angel
Spread your wings

Soar down and save without might

Lifted by the light

Insight with in sight
Sight within sight

LYRICS
… the long and short of it:
We did what we did
That’s it
The long and short of it
Period

Now what will we do
To come to the rescue
Rescue you
Rescue me
To save us from our collective “we”
That’s the long and short of it
That’s it
The long and short of it
Period

Let us — soup to nuts
The whole ball of wax
As just the basic facts
That’s the long and short of it
That’s it
The long and short of it
Period

bookmark_borderTrade War

LYRICS
Though the sky is bright and clear
There is something still to fear
Another storm is drawing near
Round up those you hold dear
Send ’em below (or to the rear)
Make it known for all to hear
No one winds an economic war
The rich get poorer…
So do the poor
Trade your trade war
For no more

Look out past the horizon
There’s a hard rain and wind that’s drivin’
In its path weaving leaving none
When all is said and done
(Q) How deep will the loses run?
(A) A total loss and none have won

LYRICS
When I close my eyes at night
I see the light
On the way to dreaming
Extrospect is streaming
See the light
Guide us through the night
Guided night/knight
All this is and will likely be
Is embodied in “we”
When you close your eyes at night
Can you see the light?

LYRICS
Must get through
Right here! Right Now!
Somehow
It’s what we have to do
… get through
’cause it’s what we have to do
Me, you… we
HAVE TO!
And for the next while
Somehow
Have to get the message through
WE DO! (It’s overdue)
We’ll try to keep it simple
Won’t deviate from the principle
Right here, right now!
“AWAKE!
… our future’s at stake”

bookmark_borderLuck Of The Draw

LYRICS
Why am I so lucky
Living life with no need for pity
Look up to the sky…
I have to wonder why

Feeling with empathy
No need for your sympathy
Look up to the sky…
I have to wonder why

Oh, Lord
Can you spare a word
Have you heard
I scream, “What does it mean?”
Look up to the sky…
I have to wonder why

Is it just me
Or can everybody see
How to be and be living free
Look up to the sky…
I have to wonder why

From now through eternity
There’s nothing better that I can see
Graciously
I thank thee
Look up to the sky…
Praise till the day I die

bookmark_borderIn Short, So Long

LYRICS
Too short on the short
Too long the too long
I must be moving on
In short, so long

The time is ripe to move along
Bring the hype into the song
Open the door
Explore for more
You’ll see…
It’s meant to be
BE

Can’t be rescinded
The way too long long-winded
No. Can’t be really wrong
In short, so long

Said it once, why say it again
Let’s end “The End”
Begin begin
Get it on
Bang a gong
In short, so long

LYRICS
When I look deep in your eyes
See the depth of beauty
An old soul… beyond wise
Be, in depth, the beauty
Big… and dark… and deep
Into my heart you seep
All your previous lives
Culminate in surprise
… deep in your eyes

When I look deep in your eyes
See the depth of reality
An old soul… beyond wise
Being in depth reality
Into our I’s
Deep in our eyes

LYRICS
Surrounded by many
More than plenty
Yet, I see
Individuality
Dawning on me
All in all
We’re all
Individual

Though it looks that I’m not alone
I suppose I’m out on my own

Starting to see
The element that’s me
Plugging the hole
In the whole
Peculiar molecule
Known as “Be”
The element that’s me
Starting to see
Out of my own
Though it looks that we’re not alone
I suppose we’re out on our own

LYRICS
When you’re in the lead
Why consider concede
No! Don’t look back
Don’t look back

The pace of the race: when past leaves no trace
A back you’ll see no more
When you’re in before
No! Don’t look back
Don’t look back
Don’t look back
Stay in attack

Once I cross the line
I can take my time
From now till then
Keep the focus movin’
And, don’t look back
No matter the slack
No! Don’t look back
Don’t look back
Stay in attack
No! Don’t look back
Don’t look back

Fading daylight
Oncome of night
Going dim
Passed the rim
Here/Hear’s what’s happening

Let the music play
Beyond the fall of day

Follow today
Heed the call of the sway
’til tomorrow

LYRICS
Is anyone listing
Any *one* anywhere
Over here
Over there
… in the wind… whistling
Is anyone listing?

Wouldn’t it be a travesty
If you dumped your tragedy
On me

Searching for a strategy
To save us from your tragedy
On we

Bridge the gap to reality
To serve from your destiny
Agony

Is anyone listing?
Is anyone?
Listening!

Strong enough
Hang tough
If ever there’s a dilemma
I need pulled through
I always know
I can count on you
You’re strong enough
To pull me through
I can count on you
You get a grip
And won’t let go
Then, let ‘er rip
Pulled to from fro
You know
You go
Pulled to to from fro
Hold the tight rope
And won’t let go
Hold out all hope
Pulled to from fro
I know…
You’ll go
Pulled to to from fro
You’ll come to my rescue
Pull me through
I can count on you

Where did you go?
Oh, I know
I see your shadow
Just ’round the bend
My friend
Just out of sight
Out-of-sight
Knowing that you’re right there
Lets me know you know I care
The love we share
We wear aware

If your scent is sensed
Warms the heart to intense
When love makes sense
Lets you know I know you care
We wear aware
