A Well Within a Well
03:37
|
|||
was it you that I saw on the street?
in reflections of the places that I pass
was it you that I heard on the wind?
as I'm laughing, as I'm turning around a phrase
was it you that I felt in the dark?
right beside me, next to everything I know
my love is a well within a well
all light is shrouded in the ceaseless sins of man

"my only one"
"won't you be mine?"
I am surround you as death
through song & through dance
prescriptive romances
but on a molecular level
nothing at all stays the same
so there is no 'you'
there is no 'me' to possess
what version of me am I now?
can't keep my finger on it
when we're all leaving
I'll love you in my own image
straight as a story can get
a voice is a song when I hear what I want
and it's you
studying all deep sea creatures
varied types of truth down there
but in between the sky & water's where I choose to gasp for air

Chillin (Out)
03:47
|

I'll come out later
we'll do whatever feels alright
talk out our worries
I'll tell you it'll be ok
we're not naive, no
sometimes it just feels good to say
oh, I'm happy to see you in any capacity
what a wonderful night it's been breathing with you
it makes no sense, this spinning existence we're all in
isn't it wild we get to be here at the same time?
oh, I'm happy to see you in any capacity
what a wonderful night it's been breathing with you
oh, I'm happy to be with you in any capacity
what a wonderful life it's been living with you

Colour Blue
03:19
|
|||
the color blue was up in the sky
it filled out my eyes, sleepy with you
while I was alive
I sang for you
I sang to you
my color blue
the world just moves a thousand mph
through empty space with the strangest human race
the color blue is here & then it's gone
like words in a song
and this is how it goes

Borrowing Cars
03:45
|
|||
I was desperate, haunted
I was lying to you
first thought in the morning
borrowing cars only to re-up warmness of home
bumping false sense of home
I would steal from people
people sick & dying
numbness took its many forms
I was drifting from home
safety & rightness of home
somebody says
forgive yourself
path to rebirth
but skeleton hands
wrap my veins
all my friends, my family
angels guide me kindly
I don't deserve their love
'cause I never knew I was home

Hallways of You
02:27
|
|||
I was young
you were too
kept a pet of lies
and we named it 'true'
at times I take a barefoot or two
deep, deep down the hallways of you
I was weak
I put my pain on you
it all ties together like the string in my shoe
the lights are dim but there's more than a few
deep, deep down the hallways of you

Jesus of Love
03:49
|
|||
I walk myself back to my place again alone. I try not to feel bad tonight. am I a stooge to be mystified by it? smiley days & evening plans. a water walking ever loving magic man. when I was young I saw the fireworks explode. they burst like flowers 'cross the sky. and then the years come on & separate us all. oh, come deliver me from grief & give me faith in all of that which I can't see. are you my jesus of love? you're right, only fools fall for this stuff. but, oh my heavens above. I pray returns to me my prodigal romance. I once was lost, I'm bored again. they say it's like a wave of opiates en masse. I see them down by 15th street with their eyes closed & their heads bowed, washing his feet. I
've got no motivation. where is my motivation? no time for motivation.

Darker Nights Subside
05:04
|
|||
here it is again
known it my whole life
but it ain't my friend
couldn't catch my breath
from the waves in my chest
I see it in my friends
everybody I know is at their wits end
how could this be the deal?
what's the point in all I feel?
every minute is a fight
try to heed their advice
when darker nights subside
plagued by money & men
this unbreakable fever hits everyone
I'm tired of wasting my time
under the tire of my mind
and you're like a good dream
and I love you so much I could just scream
but I don't make a sound
I just carry it around
meet me in philadelphia
I got so much to tell ya
when darker nights subside
