Insects And Vines

though the path is winding and unclear
the choice to return is out of fear
fear that we must overcome to move on
through insects and vines
the least we can do
for what has been done
all along the roads that led to here
a voice came forth and disappeared
to say clear is the past like the notes of a song
the buzzards will chime
the least we can do
as time moves along
as we continue along
to be continued

Cry Like An Onion

now there's tears, salty tears
guess it's all pouring out
and there's movement in the lighting
as the frame hangs on the scene
calm the set and roll sound
move the camera towards my face
as i'm deciding, i'm deciding, i'm deciding, i'm deciding
if it's you that's bringing me down
(taking you up or knocking you out)
cry like an onion
(if it's you or i'm mistaken somehow)
cry like an onion
(fumbling thoughts, whatever's around)
cry like those tears, salty tears
they're as real as can be
as the camera moves in closer and i wait to say my lines
life's a stage, when you're on stage
and the stage is all you see
as you're deciding, you're deciding, you're deciding, you're deciding
if it's you that's bringing you down
(taking you up or knocking you out)
cry like an onion
(if it's you or you're mistaken somehow)
cry like an onion
(fumbling thoughts, whatever's around)
cry like an onion
(if it's you)

Anesthetize

bare as the garden in the freezing cold
some ice to anesthetize your nose
who knows?
who knows?
no point waiting around til it's over
no point reason to be still and not say it
now's the time to take a stand
the time for god's embrace
the time to save yourself
no point waiting around til it's over
no point running in circles til it's finished
now's the time to take a stand
the time for god's embrace
the time to save yourself
oh are you listening?
(oh frère jacques)
oh are you listening?
(oh are you listening)
oh can't you feel it?
(oh can't you see it?)
oh from your heels
(oh below your heels)
oh to the ceiling?
(oh to the ceiling?)
oh are you listening?
(oh are you listening)
no point waiting around til it's over
no point reason to be still and not say it
now's the time to take the stairs
the time to settle grace
the time to save yourself

A Happy Life

call me silly
take me for a fool
but you don't get to tell me what to do
in some ways i guess we both despise each other
in some ways i guess we're both alike in wanting a happy life
so call me crazy
you can have your doubts
but doubt that you're better off without
you don't have to like those earrings
you don't have to ask, let's split the bill
it's okay not to enjoy each and every moment
happy life, happy life, happy life
happy life, happy life, happy life
happy life, happy life, happy life
happy life, happy life, happy life, happy life, happy life
in some ways it's true we both despise each other
in some ways i guess we're both alike in wanting a happy life
so call me silly
take me for a fool
i'm not any better off than you

the very thought of you
triggers a notion that fits like a shoe
and though it's nothing new
i'm still caught off guard in one way or two
by the innocence of your tune
a song so sweet it made me believe
that i am guilty on all charges
yea i deserve this sentence
to fry, to fry for you
for the very notion of you
that conjures a feeling so touchingly sweet
and makes me think it's true
that angels exist, oh must i repeat?
that the innocence of you is a vision so clear i can't not believe
that i should be convicted on counts now
yea i deserve to be punished
to fry, to fry for you
i'm ready to do my time now
yea i am willing to walk the line
to fry, to fry for you

The King Is Dead
02:45
|
|

loquacious is the jester who's the apple of the maiden's eye
in vain the court demands a speedy trial for the infidel
who cast with bronze a spectre to seduce a blighted countryside
barren as an empty spoon
barren as the quarter moon
that hangs above the castle ruins
where children gather to the tune
the king is dead the queen is moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
and efficacious is the joker who's quarters are an empty room
in vain the court decrees the verdict of the shepherd to the flock
armed with light munitions to lay siege under a moment's spell
a covenant of witches cried
a cauldron used to hypnotize
a notion to apotheosize
the children came to realize
the king is dead the queen is moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead the queen is moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead she's moving on
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead
the king is dead

Discovery

these foolish thoughts, where are the from?
i'm wondering how, how it all came to me
to feel so compelled as to put it in words
as best as i can, how did it come to be?
was it there all along? filling the blanks
in the back of my mind, is it already made?
am i in discovery, oh what can i say?
bout these foolish thoughts, where are they from?
am i someone else? am i just impersonating
someone who's compelled, as to wanting to say?
who's in control of what i'm articulating?
was it there all along? filling the blanks
in the back of my mind, is it already made?
am i in discovery, oh what can i say?

you are an aries
and your smile is a field of magnetism
pulling just barely
so tightly
distant pieces
to the puzzle
of your psyche
if you drew a table
and used x to represent all emotion
would you see the bigger picture?
that
you are an aries
and your sign is in relation to the stars
pulling just barely
so tightly
distant pieces
that govern
your personality
if you held a conference
the smartest people all in one room
would you see the bigger picture?
that
you are an aries
