Hard Days
02:16
|
|||
hard days are coming
hard days have gone
you sit in the middle
far from where youre from
take a breather
take off your shoes
take off the world
your sholders are used to
it will keep on spinning
far from your control
the things your missing
are all rocks on a roll
hard days are here
youve found shelter
embrace the warmth
but still remember
just cause you dont feel it
doesnt mean its not there
just because these moments
doesnt mean youre spared
cause heartbreak is human
and were all on a mend
were all on different stages
and we interdepend
days full of difference
a chasm with a bridge
it needs our maintenence
to keep touch who weve been

Loop of the Cycle
01:34
|
|||
put your finger in the loop of the cycle
and gently pull its thread
disarm the words run viral
understand whats more than said
we weave new traditions
from the fabric of the dead
whats sewn is not forsaken
its deep inside your head
|
||||
4. |
||||
fallen soldiers fallen graces
on the streets are wandering
broken bodies, brittle spirits
lived lives of violence
burn the flag
my brothers keeper
its fabric
merely hides the reaper
the curse of cain
the slayn abel
whos blood is on the nation
lies the tell us, lies provoke us
we become the terror
burn the flag
love your neighbor
break the spell
break down the borders
uniforms disguise the murderer
as a martyred savior
idols of star spangled caskets
are worshiped behavior
burn the flag put out the crosses
we are all veterans
in the struggle to resist
our own oppressions
burn the flag
pride wont save you
ego
cannot liberate you

Holding Your Face
02:43
|
|||
holding your face
feeling it resonate
skin soft and bare
sweet to the taste
im falling in
a familiar black hole
time will tell
if the depths will be
worth the lows
in the meantime
hindsight is sensual
i spent years alone
spent time to ruminate
in gravity's hold
touch yearned to resonate
like a broken record
needle damaged done
my heart shone like rays of the crimson sun
which shined and beckoned your welcoming
i feel like a ghost
a shadow walking
after a night
of sweet talking
now im at home
and i listen to the radio
and i hope that im more than just mirrors and smoke
and i hold on to not letting go

What's Lost Forgotten
04:06
|
|||
whats lost forgotten is destined to be remembered
and rediscovered
with luck, chance, and life
as we hold hands with lovers
some search in heartbreak
we must hold close the lonely
for the time it takes
hold on
for time to heal your wounds
search still
for the sun just out of view
the heart swells and savors
love and pain the same
our wounds are in measure
but help is on the way
theres hope in recalling
the ghosts of joy
we must summon, embody
strengths in memory
we must make new
rebirth loss with life
and lost truths
reclaimed to survive

Magic in the Air
03:36
|
|||
theres magic in the air
in eyes locked in a stare
in a spell and a trance
in a dark romance
this cant end well
theres murk in the water
im cursed and im blessed
in seeing through this hot mess
i look away to break the spell
crack a joke only i can tell
this black magics blue
im rubber, im glue
sometimes broken spells can remain cast
in rippling reverberence
in lingering glances
n nostalgic past
magics whimsical
its not a force set in stone
it moves through the air
like sunshine or a thunders roll
its fire and air
its earth and water
its in the bond between broken hearts
and the forces that attract and repulse
in celestial dances
in atomic romance

Silence All Around
02:56
|
|||
with silence all around
eternity is screaming
i tune it in to slow it down
as rivers rage inside of me
a flooding well
is what my heart feels while dreaming
placid, still
in breathes fueling a surge in me
sound of sirens abound
in the core molten of my body
dreams of stillness slow surround
a techtonic cage or reverie
still waters
cool the mortal coil with aww
as im a statue
living within the bounds of law
|
||||
9. |
||||
the sun shines for another day
as you wake up in the morning
children laugh as they play
its good medicine for grief and mourning
close your eyes and feel the warmth
of the dawning springtime
these painless moments are short
just breathe and savor the flowers blooming
and sit in the sun
for your loved ones
cause those have passed
are still within you
feel their best parts
in the grass
cause we are more than blood and sinew
more than what was ever meant to last
& the sky will cry tears of sunshine
as warm rain meets the dew
and lives lost to the dreamtime
are still alive in me & you.

Wizard of Us
02:37
|
|||
a scare that will crow
a figure to resemble
a brain made out of straw
wheres your mind at?
tredding on bricks of golden
but where ya goin?
do we have heart?
are we just tin cold and smart?
our body is a modern machine
with hearts of lions and the lost
yearning free
theres courage within
our hearts burnin
but theres a man behind the curtain
thats for certain
but what hes made of is beyond us
and within us

Song of Sight
02:12
|
|||
the sun comes again and sears in the sky
as the fire burns ever bright
the fog melts away
on the tips of the trees
as the green reveals hidden sights
the valley and the canyons
start to sing their sights in view
as the eye starts to spy their song in a sunlit tune
whispers of a melody ripen upon the breeze
weaving through the rays in complex synchronicity
the water in the river and the reflections on the lake sparkle
the dirt on the cliffs are subdued by the waterfall
muted by the roar of the currents tumbling
in visions of fire, light, and water in the coming spring
