Your heart of fire will keep you cozy,
When it's cold out side,
You...
Drop two sticks in the panic box,
And wander down the beach, skipping the flat rocks,
She's your - crazy sailor with pupils wide, and
If you ask nicely, she'll take you to the other side,
So you've heard, that seeing is believing,
Yet you've seen that seeing is deceiving,
Still the thought of seeing is relieving,
Catch that hot thought, thinking is deceiving, you see?
Lady Sunbeam casts her light into the night,
Another opportunity to stay out of sight,
Because seeing's believing and believing's decieving,
And we've no real way to know which is right,
With open eyes, use your failed perception,
With open mouth, spread your misconceptions,
The rumours run 'round, race through populations,
This is an issue, we need to address,
Train the people to see as you, go on,
Brew your potions and develop your mind control,
Don't allow them to think, for thinkers are meek,
The problem's still there, and illusion's the key,
Swirling mass of misinformation of the new,
Churning at the beck and mention,
To break away, would break the polls,
To break away might break your soul,
Shadows speaking whispered words in vacant trailer parks,
Incandescent, yellow lights shining in the dark,
The Morning Lark serenades the entrance of a new day,
But quickly loses hope, and she flies away,
She sings to the land the song of the sands,
And turns her sweet wing to the prettiest of hands,
But the night takes its course, he comes on in force,
And vanquishes this light from the sky.

One mind, that never dies,
Lost in the wastes, of the sculptured eye,
Fat clouds, electric night,
Storm over sea, who's asking why?
Staring off, into the wall,
Of an cold and tired, bathroom stall,
The silence, has broken down ,
A flow of warmth, who's asking why?
To feral heights, the eagle climbs,
To show the might, and the reason why,
For those who strive, to play the game,
In the end, we're all the same,
An age long day, the longest stay,
Through the years we must find a way,
The sky falls, upon the Earth,
Find the sun, always on the run,
Red horizons, that never end,
An insatiable thirst, one can never quench,
The irresistable pull of the stars in the sky,
It's the expression of extension to an infinity of I,
Dimensional expansion ripping through the heights,
10 miles high but the notion's out of sight,
Exterminating consciousness with a simple slight of mind,
We're flying, through the most beautiful of times,
One mind, that never dies,
Lost in the wastes, of the sculptured eye,
Fat clouds, electric night,
Storm over sea, who's asking why?
Staring off, into the wall,
Of an cold and tired, bathroom stall,
The silence, has broken down ,
A flow of warmth, who's asking why?

In the Wake of a Dream
05:13

Like ten thousand hearts,
Beating in unison,
Like the fire that burns
In the souls of those who care,
Like an old man's untold story,
Lost to the grave,
In the Wake of a Dream,
You come to,
Wondering, who you are,
Like the silence of space,
Speeding through the stars,
Like the warmth of a friendship,
Which shall never degrade,
Like the path of a drop,
Of rain falling from the sky,
In the Wake of a Dream,
You come to,
remembering, who you aren't.

Your Third Eye
04:01
|
|||
|
Your Third Eye spews forth a magic foam,
Your expression tells me to leave you alone,
So I sit here calmly, through the night,
And wait for you,
Your mind's eye, never lies,
Your mind's eye, never lies,
Your body hovers above your seat,
In a collage of colours, I can't compete,
Your hands cupped softly around your knees,
You wait for me,
Your mind's eye, never lies,
Your mind's eye, it never lies,
So why ask why?

Imagining the length of time?
But time, it is not real,
As the planets around you align,
Freeeeeeeee yourrrrr miiiiinnnddd,

Chilling on a Sunny Day

Just Chilling, on a Sunny Day in the spring time,
Willing, to fly when the mind's out,
It's exciting, let's live in a day dream,
Floating so high and feeling so wonderful,
Shining, with a mood made of steel and gold,
Growing, expansion of the soul,
Loving, all those who you hold so dear,
Living, as life is all you really have,
Ticking, the clock in the corner,
Buzzing, hangs a light from the ceiling,
Typing, sits a man at his laptop,
No attention paid to the pleasures/beauty of the day,
Shining, like the sun in the day sky,
Growing, like the grass on the ground,
Exploring, like bees in a meadow,
Living, life's energy surrounds you.

Hey there, Mister Misty Sunshine, (Misty Morning Sunshine)
Morning dew and the blooms may rise,
Such a good morning surprise,
May I see you when I rise and shine?
I love your delicate blues and mild hues,
But I must find some rest for my mind, so goodbye,
Please allow me, to lay down, and close my eyes
As I rest, beneath your endless skies,
So shine with the light of ten thousand stars,
You truly don't need a disguise,
For we, the people shall worship you,
Until the dark of night, overcomes!
Hey there, distant foggy night,
Bring forth the moon to fill the sky,
The stars in the heavens shine so bright,
On mountain peaks, they cast an eery light,
The shadows grow long and the branches whistle,
Creatures crawl through bush and thistle,
A winter time walk through a world of ghosts,
There is no question, what life the darkness hosts,
So shine with the light of the worshiped one,
Shine with the light of the sun,
For we, the people shall worship you,
Until the light of day, overcomes!

One Ascending Star
05:44
|

|
Spoken:
We just stood there, our eyes as open as our minds, staring up into the evening sky,
Suddenly, a star which had stood still the entire time began to move upwards, and upwards,
It ascended in a straight line, and continued doing so until it was lost from sight and it left us very puzzled,
What was it? Was it just a star? Was it our minds playing tricks on us in our mentally vacant state? I guess we will never know.
