Fireball

To the streets and my mind's wheel turning
Mental monkey wrench under my hood
Feel the lightness of the ground beneath me
And hear the engine sound far too good
Skipping across the pavement like throwing stones
Four circle hands to catch the ground
And steer myself to brighter places
And find myself an unfamiliar crowd
But I really wanna jerk the wheel
I'm gonna fall
Fireball
My eyes are blinking every loss of control
Engine beating like a steel alarm clock
And feel the veil of temptation over me
And fear my actions in my state of shock
Now the moments pass in slow motion
Tension finds in me its fill
And never blink for a second now
And squeeze the wheel even tighter still
But I really wanna jerk the wheel
I think I'm gonna do it
Just close my eyes and do it
I'm gonna fall
Fireball
Single turn
Crash and burn
I'm gonna fall
Fireball

On my face, you can see
The damage it's done in me
The pain of longing and my chest pulling me apart
Not the best
To come so close, enough to touch
But failure means so so much
All of my days and all of my mind
But regret is far too unkind
In the passion of the morning sky
I'm still compelled to try
People I know fear's just a wall
But fate's hand still controls us all

Goodness

Goodness, come wash over me
And love like brass rings and everything
What will be, and then we'll be
Goodness, come wash over me

You're a little caterpillar aren't you
In your cocoon among the stars
I could all but make you out, from the plateaus of Mars
With my rose-colored looking glass
I could chart your descent to right-brained naiveté
To think you think you can fly
Butterfly, you know if kills me to see you try
Oh, to fold one-thousand cranes
And fly them all to me
The words they hit my brain like a bullet
Spoken at the threshold of a whisper, "don't leave"
One-thousand words painting a pretty crazy picture
You unleash tumbling waves, when you speak
You say, "I want you to explore"

Silly World

Silly, silly world, you're so funny to me
But it's all okay, okay
I can pick myself up
Silly, silly world
Make me laugh at myself, okay
Silly, silly world, I won't breathe a word
You're so beautiful and I'm so small
Wouldn't speak out against silly, silly world
Not against you at all
This day, I feel, is splintering more and more
With this reality crashed upon, I'm giving way
Gotta get away, get away from me today
Get away

Ecstatic Hum

Ecstatic hum
Fall on deaf ears
Marches time
We are leaving
You are conscious
In the midst of noise
Silence
Bringing unnervedness
Straight from your speakers
To god's ear
Sing of the equation
The sacramental act
The transmutation
From thought to sound to thought
Abstract connection
Communion
Seduction
Anointed
Bathed in sound
The channel is open, descend
Upon us
Kindred sister
She is here with us
Tonight

Blanket Me

How can I call you beautiful
When days on end
Leave you in tarnished perfection
To touch you is not enough
I would swim through you if I could
Disappear in rusty red, crinkly brown
In the fall of the year
My mind is blown away
With rusty leaves, down painted streets
I could stay with you a while
Root myself beside
With arms enough to embrace the sky
Pull my coat about my neck
And buckle my arms around
And lay content until you blanket me

Follow The Sun

Your face is stained with fingerprints in red
Gonna get that son of a bitch, in the end
You know it's not the hurt that brings you down
But this abuse is gonna run you into the ground
And I was thinking the same thought the other day
And maybe you and I should run away
Say goodbye to your mom and dad, we're gonna leave today,
Say goodbye while you're still gone mad, we're gonna leave today
And we were making good time down the road we sped
A million thoughts all shifting through my head
Her hair was jumping in and out of the car
And I was wondering where the hell we are
We were all too content to follow the sun
The cities rise and fall in slow motion
The open road was just the place to be
So we took that thought straight to the sea

Blink
11:34
|
|||
|
Morning's drowsy sky stares down one starry eye
And golden threads of dawn sew my eyes to sleep
And I'd disappear for you, if you'd just blink your eyes
Helplessly fixed between the stare of each eye
And so the day would slow, into reluctant returns
And black hair seemed to stream down your face, eyes immersed
And time instructs me so, "just blink your eyes"
Momentary lapse of linearity, at the blink of my
My mind is racing now, over the template of the Earth, at such a speed
I'm losing others like myself, passing through filters
Searing through psychological constructs, I come down crashing and skipping
I am a box kite, tied to the core of the Earth
I am the new year's dragon, singing my song sweetly
I dance overhead
