was i like the rabbit
'cause I was quick and small
oh, I was like the rabbit
'cause I could get away
was I like Europa
laid out soft and white
well I saw beyond the universe
in that dark bull's eyes
was she left there crying
for illusions die like men
no, she'll always have another
it's just the sky that rains
did I jump into the fire
'cause it was Tani's cure
well the earth cradles the ocean
now I am of the air
did I lose the message
for I see nothing in eternity
no, I am my destination
free and loose again

Fetus mind
05:08
|

just light enough to see breath itself is too loud
the electric spell over us like a cloud
lips open up like doors to where time is blind
deep in natures home, the fetus mind
the fading sky's light, the current in my veins
feeling life from inside, ineffably strange
more than I can know, more than I can touch
everything I see is far too much
oh Venus, you told me to let go
I didn't believe you but I'm not scared anymore
all I ever wanted, to be set free
I am your lover, you live in me
a sense of the without, however it may seem
before we slip away, another dream
the wind in the trees, rocks out in the sea
light through the clouds, I in her, she in me
oh Venus, you told me to let go
I couldn't trust you but I'm not scared anymore
all I ever wanted, to be set free
I am your lover, you live in me
Venus, you told me to let go
it took my life, but I'm not scared anymore
all I ever wanted, now set me free
you are my lover, you live in me

Love without end
02:24
|

long ago
the world was a desert
one easter morning
standing in the sun
I reached out my hand
I've been a child
we had to go home
like we've never been born
oh child
one easter morning
give me your hand
the world before
in your unformed beauty
I've been tried
I see the strength of man
I touched the world
changeling
just out of sight
balancing in between
the rocks of a canyon
open heart of fire
I'll love you forever
where all roads begin
love without end
seeker
fingers in the fire
do you know what you want
like we've never been born
you know the world's no limit
I'll love you forever
if you get it or not
love without end
teacher
I've been born
love beyond fear
like the very first time
past all conditions
I'll love you forever
we go there
love without end
oh light inside the sun
the wind blows right through you
you are the world before
I'll love you forever
could never forget you
love without end

Song of paradise
04:54
|
|||
when I was blind I did not want to see
and I stayed in the cage after I was set free
when I looked in the mirror I didn't see me
I was lost in hell, paradise all around.....
it's not in a home for I live exiled
it's not in a hope, I'm not so beguiled
it's not through grief, there's no time in the wild
I'm only an animal lost in paradise
in the twilight mind that doesn't recognize time
in the sacred peaks that are never a crime
in the nearness of death, in the whites of it's eyes
a suspension of disbelief in paradise
here on the shoreline we've been before
here in the sunsets, may we go again
there is a place, where we were born
here in the land they call paradise
that I call paradise

Potenziale umano
04:57

people talk about justice
and who has the right
and who's taking on who
by day or by night
well the shape of the oceans floor
barely glimpsed through the waves
has sent many sailors
to their watery graves
who's voice is the loudest
and who's got something to lose
and would they sell you out
if they had to choose
a palace of isolation
promise of safety built
somewhere to keep up a privilege
then store the guilt
I'm lookin' out for number one
I think of me before I think of you
that's the way that it is
simple and true
but my best interest is fairness
my best interests are shared
I make better decisions
'cause I'm not scared
a manager told me
they want it all for free
and a nurse looked outside
and said "they're not like me"
a man in the paper
outraged by welfare crimes
people dying every day
over nickels and dimes
I dreamt of an eagle
red blood on it's beak
and it looked deep into my eyes
and began to speak
"the earth does not grow food
and the sun does not burn
you parents never had sex
and people will never learn"
I'm lookin' out for number one
I think of me before I think of you
that's the way that it is
simple and true
but my best interest is fairness
my best interests are shared
nothing ever happened
until somebody dared
my best interest is union
that fear cannot bend
true selfishness knows
compassion is it's end

Taken inside
03:27
|

up high on the mountain
looking down so low
I see so many places
I may never go
I see so much life
an endless stream
and I trace my own footsteps
like a dream
I was born in this body
and I moved across the land
I've been loved and hated
and many things I don't understand
sometimes it seems like never
forever on and on
but when I get finished singing
this body will be gone
promises I whisper
underneath my breath
if I only have one life
if I only have what's left
I won't withhold anything
won't still my tongue with fear
won't keep a safe distance
let every body hear
apocalypse is shining
in every hearts secret fire
all beauty and cruelty
born of the same desire
consciousness is a lover
laid out across the bed
when I close my eyes
the stars turn red

Endless night
02:48
|
|||
nine rings of fire
nine bands of light
impossibly distant
beyond time or mind
standing like a hero
until everything is gone
only the harper
echos history's song
goddess here it is
take this heart
it feels so black and heavy
tear my soul apart
she is all my loves
she says "such a fool
you've felt all my worst
there's nothing left to do"
wade in moonlit water
naked to the skies
we'll disappear forever
into another night

may the lost
find a home of the road
may the divided
find each other across
may fear be the test
of freedom
let suffering
not all be in vain
let human potential
ever be known
art will lie in the ground
when the city is gone
instruments in a tomb
will prove that we sang songs
the future's in wonder
of our doomed gilded age
they can never know
