I'd shine sweeter than any ring on your finger
If you'd let me into your life
(gone overboard,
I'm drowning and)
If you're still around when I need you
I'd call it love
and that's enough for me
I don't want to be your worst enemy
but if it means you'll keep me closer,
I'll abide
You don't like to call it love
never going to give you up
You don't have to call this love
don't want to give it up
Taken over by night things
Cats in the kingdom
in the palace of trees
Acid on the tip of your tongue
Meet me at the bottom of your lungs
Dreaming while we're still awake
One thing I can't seem to take
is when the chemicals collide
and I stop looking for the answer--
Embrace this open space
You don't like to call it love
never going to give you up
You don't have to call this love
now I'm going to live it up
Never been so fully confused
Never been so fully consumed--
Holy,
and all your wild things feel so fit to me

Accidental Seance

poured over
gentle is the morning sun
mixing in with moonbeams
it's only just begun
accidental seance
music raise the dead
i love your psychic head
open my palms
can i lay with you there?
beach glass
an answer
oh
your hair
spirals counter clockwise
magic is everywhere (that you are)
starfish out of water
soft as bunnies' hair
trees all comb the skyline
our every breath
a prayer
poured over
gorgeous as the morning sun

i know my brain's been bleeding
i think it's not from sleeping
waiting on the slow stab of day
i thought i had something to say
we've all got superstitions
i love when you ask me to stay
you're far out
untouchable lately
far out
ancients are calling me
i know my brain's been bleeding
i think it's not from sleeping
i'll stay up with you
i'd wake up for you
for anything
blurring by
like busy's the thing to be
unraveling emotions
feel me
really
i know my brain's been bleeding
i think it's not from sleeping
i just can't control myself
i see you are breaking your shell
it's close enough to touch
why waste it

So Soft
02:54
|
|||
you're so soft
to the touch
with tangible tangerine tree
rings round your fingers
that tell of how many Summer suns seen
since the desert's been blooming
in form and in color, in light
caught in the desert high
come up empty handed
if you've lost your mind
here's to happy landings
absconded heart strings in a paper bag
tune in to midnight
and its ultra-black
don't play games with tender hearts
nobody likes that kind of smart

Rose Colored Glasses

All that I've wanted in the passing years of life
was to try and make you happy and to look in your eyes
every once in a while as I sit by your side
I confess it's pathetic how I romanticize
but I need rose colored glasses
just to survive
and
I don't know what's right
other than what's right now
You build me up from nothing
then you made my heart your home
filled with so much love
and I still want to see it grow
into something that's immune
to all this sadness
I want you
always
now
forever after
This goes on and on
and on and on
and on
I don't know what's right
other than what's right now
You sent for me by satellite
I don't feel like I'm so bright--
demons of the day
clouds all plump and gray
I want to
I want you
I want to
let it out

i can't really seem to relate
to people of today
if life is just an empty bottle
watch it drift away
your soul matters
it's always glowing and you're
building patterns
that keep on growing and it's
not about to stop
someone called the cops
and now i'm reaching for the
sky
i feel it washing over me
nighttime brings such clarity
under a blanket of breeding stars
the answer's always with you
no matter where you are
your soul matters
it's always glowing and you're
building patterns
and it's not about to stop
someone called the cops
and now i'm reaching for the
gun
i can hardly seem to get by
but still i try and try
got a conscience like a tyrant
more dead than alive
and what matters
is always showing itself
your brain scatters
it's over flowing
is it ever going to stop?
back to planting crops
and watch them reaching for the
sky

it's a long journey from seed to bloom
days branch patiently until they're heavy with fruit
caught in the beat of the summer
locked in the cinder-block suburbs
i don't want to need a lover
i'll never meet another quite like you
i don't really care what happens
as long as i can be your friend
i won't hold your heart captive
we will always have to pretend...
|
||||

... and i'm not so eloquent
to keep from growing old
open book of spells again
to fight the common cold
shame's coming over
with her sparkling knives
painfully sober
we keep things bottled inside
i want you to know that you're
truly wonderful
and i can't quantify it undeniably with science
but i know, deep down
you're in for something cool
come time to lay your head down
time to let it go
leave it, let it echo
try to let it grow
it never stops
your lips make a smile
3 o'clock
stay for a while
or
let's go together
now more than ever

30 counts of man-slaughter wrapped up in my pocket
just want to feel good all the time
20 years in prison, pressed, floating through my lungs
who went and made it a crime?
i don't want to hurt nobody
i just want to make it alright
i don't want to hurt nobody, no
just want to make you feel fine
little bits of sunshine melting on my tongue
who knew we would get so high
i feel it on my skin and taste it in my brain
and know that i'm ready to change
magic is the only explanation for what's happening
the beauty and the bliss of today
i don't want to hurt nobody
i just want to make it alright
i don't want to hurt nobody, no
just want to make you feel fine
Vampires like to stay hidden from the light
the wooden stakes too sharp, a coffin's so heavy
sun is too bright, blank photographs are framed
and all of these things
you see before your eyes
are unbelievable and so surreal

we're all such fragile machines
your soul don't want to stay clean
kite string caught in a tree
wait for the pull of the breeze
you know that you ought to
let go of what's holding you back
don't want your heart to attack you from the inside
dig through your pockets
looking for the time
tin foil conscience
why'd you do the crime
no bottles, no wires
you've got their poison in your mind
know that you really ought to
set it free like water
rise
green eyed girl you're going home
knowing that your life is all a poem

so long
see you later
i'm an alligator
hungry for love
that i just can define
longing for hands
that feel just right
so long
sayonara
racing toward tomorrow
oh
which way now
i can't find a way out
what's that you say
who you guna play now
too gone to say i'm sorry
so lost in samsara

Oh Brother

little sister
like her mother
bigger picture
they are eachother
always something with you brother
it's not one drink
it's another
watch where you step
why oh why, my brotherman
did life not turn out as we may have planned?
fell on through
like i always seem to do
touchy feelings
we've all got moods
and at my best i know that we're all going to be okay
i feel it in the sun, the night, the clouds up in my brain
as we grow up
we'll have each other
as our hearts grow full of friends and lovers

palm trees stand high
speak language of night
burn on tender flame
twirl like turntables
inhale life
flowers at sunset
i'm closing my eyes
(lost in the clouds above)
don't die
i want you alive
& don't you bring me down
i'm happy with no feet on the ground
concrete and satellites
oranges in rain
the leaves are all changing
i can't stay the same
don't die
i want you alive
don't you bring me down
i'm happy
with no feet on the ground

Earn a Living (demo)

all my life
i've been told what's right
and mindful of what's wrong
I decide to nurture light
but attention's just so long
and i've
got to earn a living
brother are you kidding
tired eyes with a lucid mind
and memories holding strong
you capitalize all of my time
but will you miss me when i'm gone
and i
don't want to earn a living
brother are you kidding
i quit my job to open up
and find where i belong
freed my mind
enjoying life
now i spend time writing songs
and i
don't want to earn a living
brother are you kidding?
