New Chance
A Rock Unsteady
​
Doer and Deed
There is no reason
It is not reasonable
We were a part of something
And it was beautiful
We couldn’t figure it out
It was not figurable
The feelings bump against the reasons
I wish there could have been more room
I wish there could have been more room
In between doer and deed
There was so much happening
It’s clear down here
She has to live with what she’s done
Multiple Storms Seek Attention
Sometimes I find myself fearful
These days
I can’t quite say
which way my mind will go
Mind will go, mind will go
As if pulled by something invisible
Trying to abide by my guiding star
A steady wind pushes
my mind along the shore
Thoughts arise and die
as quickly as they’re born
Thrashing on my course
towards
Utopia
Can’t locate me in the waves
Pushing up and down
and up again
Multiple storms
from all
directions
There are multiple storms
that seek attention
Turning Back
I keep turning back to check
If you’re sorry yet
I keep reaching in my purse
Hoping to coerce
Where’s my honey fantasy
You never came to be
Stars have gone and crossed on me
Stars have crossed on me
I keep turning back to check
If the fire’s wet
Seems to me we lost the spark
Fumbling through the dark
Heard that fire doesn’t wait
It doesn’t contemplate
It doesn’t hesitate
It wasn’t meant to stay
Gone is gone
buried treasure
Diamonds form
under pressure
What’s Gone is gone
Buried like treasure
where diamonds take form
under such pressure
It’s gone, it’s gone, it’s gone
Buried like treasure
Down where diamonds form
Under the pressure
you are no exception
Honey, you are no exception
Original Feeling
I’m changing
Counting lines on a butterfly’s wing
Recombining and rearranging
This is my original feeling
Containing
Underside of the apple leaf
Closed my eyes and I went to sleep
Nevermind what I used to be
My love is a mystery
Crawling out of a raging sea
Let’s go dancing in the light
Or be lonesome otherwise
When you wake in a moment
The one and the many
On a rock unsteady
On a rock unsteady
Hey ya da da da da da
Theme
What goes on in dreams
A love that fulfills itself in darkness
Each dream is a child of the night
Child of sleep
Child of forgetting
Night was a depth of love and light
Twice Bitten
The instinct of the dog
Is to contain the harm
Didn’t know I was bitten
Until I saw the mark
I took to fantasy
Opportunistically
You cannot blame me
For seeking beauty
It’s how god made me
It’s how god made me
You can't contain me
You can’t contain me inside
Your gravity
And so the story goes
no little miracles
did come and save me
did come and save me
no corner of my mind
no narrow place to hide
An arrow grazed me
how it amazed me
All that was uncontained
Led to calamity
while in my bed I laid
among my broken dreams
The Needles burned
on the evergreen tree
Smoking and moaning
their message just for me
showing me something
oh, I can barely see
It’s some kind of image
Fixing to stay with me
Change in me
Stay with me
Change in me
And so the story goes
No little miracle
Did come and save me
Did come and save me
no corner of my mind
no narrow place to hide
An arrow grazed me
and I became
Enrapt
Oh Mercury
He likes to hide
I like to seek
He likes the quiet
The quiet speaks
Oh my words are all I need
Will you send my letters
Are you busy?
Stay with me
Your company’s so fleeting
Always passing through and quickening
To perform your alchemy
Because the heart
Can’t read the head
And because the soul
Can’t read the circumstances
Down here in the valley
We can't seem to agree
Can't seem to agree
There is a chapel by the sea
Where people go to make their promises
In the open air their witnesses agree
That romance in the air will escape
When there’s no one there to hold it
Do you care about quality?
Do you serve us all equally?
Can you hold my uncertainty?
You wouldn’t happen to have any tricks up your sleeve for me
Oh Mercury
Because the heart
Can’t read the head
And because the soul
Can’t read the circumstances
Down here in the valley
Where We can't seem to agree
Can't seem to agree
Phasis
Finally
I emerge as a morning star
Finally, finally
Today I listen to the sky
Vastness, fastness
Vastness
Peaceful mind
Peaceful mind
Secret plans and
White lies
I felt sad
Not to be
Shining in the night
Let the blank page
Of the day
Set me right
Something Human
Did you change your mind?
Did the thoughts spill out like wine
Pour down from the sky intoxicating
And did you ever try relating?
Well I promised you and I didn’t follow through
Now I know
Something human
My heart was ablaze
Burned out wishes, blown away
Now I know
Something human
Did you feel surprised
Did the problem resolve
put your faith in science
Poured out all the signs
void of their meaning
And did you ever try believing?
For this is the land of no hope, no plan, no time
Where there is no we, no me, no mine
For this is the land of no hope, no plan, no time
Where there is no we, no me, no mine
Now I know
Something human
Now i know
Something human
Victory
Another pain, another love
Another pain, another love
I didn’t lose, I won
I didn’t lose, I won
So go on, I dare you
To release me from
To release me from
Under the veil
Under the shell
Under this world
I magnetized
I pressurized
I’m full of pride
and glory without blame
grant me the force to tame
when dust gets kicked up
the air gets thicker
And I can’t see the way
I can’t see the way
Another sword, another name
Another sword, another name
I didn’t lose, I won, I didn’t lose, I won
I’m under rays
I radiate
I kiss the sun
I run from no one
Lay down my weapon
where I can’t feel the pain, where I can’t feel the pain
I’m under rays
I radiate
I kiss the sun
And ride the windfall
