Let us rise rise open our eyes to the Light within
Let us rise rise open our eyes to the Love within
Let us rise rise open our eyes to the Heart within
Let us rise rise open our eyes to the Sky within

Red Morning
02:18
|
|||
There’s a red storm warning brewing overhead
churning waters hiding what is dead
we need a wind blowing cold and straight
take this ship to the ulcer wound of hate
Awake in the storm
alive in the pain
the rain is a bath
scrubbed clean by the rain
Red is the light
long is the night
hope becomes thin
the light comes again
Night turns to light
gone beyond the fright
safe harbor nears
gone are the fears

Rented Bones
02:35
|
|||
The endless sky won't dry your eye, nor shed a tear for thee
The rain won't quench your deepest thirst, nor sunrise help you see
The mountain won't provide your quest, or lift your legs in turn
The wind will kiss your every step, until your cheeks do burn
The mystic won't reveal your path, nor take away your fear
Your ears won't let you listen in, they only seem to hear
The traveler never leaves their home, tomorrow never comes
Yesterday will always ache inside these rented bones
Just because you spend your time running round the rim, doesn't mean you can't tip back and let yourself fall in.

Fly Inside

I
Fly on through you
I
Fly on
I
Fly on to you
I
From outside into you
I
Fly
From outside
I
Fly into you
I
Fly
I
From outside into you
Fly

Unmasked
02:36
|
|||
No matter if its crown or shroud
everyone's stuck here on the ground
All this talk of fly away
We're not going far today
Burn that shroud or toss the crown
Fake your life, you're going down
Some suggest you fake your way
Here is what you have to say
NO
I will not wear that mask today!

Take Off Let Go
04:11
|
|||
You can't take off what you don't put on
You can't put on what you don't let in
You can't let in what you don't let go
You can't let go what you don't take in

At dawn they rose unfurled the sail to start their journey home.
Abandoned hope of reaching shore with crew, all lives intact.
Oh perilous their journey home did promise to become.
To sail between the isle of woe and island of dismay.
To guard their hearts from demon lust and wardens of decay.
Guarding prisons of darkest thought in mountains of despair.
Their passage guarded only by their thoughts of wayward light.
Forgetting was their only sin, their punishment swiftly wrought.
The mountains root knew no name, but heat did serve to take.
With rivers of fear running through, but thirst not to be slaked.
Hold fast the oars and lock the doors when threading through the eye.
Look outward not for guided way, past anything but sky.
The isles call forth every soul, the wise sail straight on by.
And here this tale does end its thread, the meaning does abide.
Sail but straight and ye shall know the darkness that shall rise.

Lady Moon

|

Lady Moon come to my dreams
Ride your beams around my head
Dreamtime flight arrival plan
Riding through my head of sand
Threads of thought
Sewing up these concepts wrought
Sailing through this light beam land
Riding high on ships of sand
From sun-kissed boardwalk by the sea
Here to blue eternity

My eyes are dotted across your cup of tea
Waiting for the chili dog to bark
It pays to have friends in green places
May your liver spots be ever clear
Zebra skeleton flash
Lost on the real thing
Flicker flash
Like a merry go round
Once per green horse
Horse hound
Pulled from the bar
Gaping wound of play fun
Bolt holes and paint chipped eyes
Staring for the ride to stop
Radiator laughs hiss stops into the
Glottal nightmare music darkness
The painting pony trots along the fence of your mine your mine he says
Mining for diamonds in the rough hands around your plywood past
Ocean tears pouring from the eye of the Sun
Roaring toward you in the night light sky
Night light night light day liquor.
