you and me we both got quite some gall of course we will feed and what, no wherewithal out in the great wide open oh no, you can’t catch me an awful clamor, you can’t say no cause you are a marvel... you know me I’ve got my own trip it’s coarse mental feed an ode to itchy eyes in through the out door creeping the beast with fifteen eyes an awful clamor, you can’t say no cause you are a marvel oh, woe is me I’m in the master’s hall what’s the worst it could be an end for once and all crept in while you were sleeping oh no, you can’t catch me an awful clamor, you can’t let go cause you are a marvel...

inadvertent 02:32
pulling the line in tow existing for friend and foe burning my soul away inadvertently... I know I saw you there and thought to speak upon those things that you were counting on I guess it makes the days go by cause after all, we are all alone... leading the blind astray happens so easily is that what you wanted to hear? what you wanted to know you left in fear... I saw you there and thought to speak upon those things that you were dying from I guess it makes the days go by but after you fall, we will all confide... if we’re gonna get there we all gotta bleed sometime if we’re gonna make it we all gotta be there somehow, someway you’re gonna have to stick it out I guess it makes the song so sweet cause after all, we are all one mind... leading the blind ashore inadvertently... I guess...

that you have form and order it’s not self imposed the way we are... that you have reasons; it’s not freedom you do what you rationale, desire cause if you had freedom like lying right here you’d cover your eyes, you’d balk and run don’t deny it; cause we all breathe as one let’s deny it; and maybe we’ll seethe as one that’s denial; well don’t we all feel as one? don’t deny it; because we all die as one ... swallowed by time. life without meaning; oh what’s the point? you’d fizzle and pop and fade away a world without order; oh what a crying shame well say what you want, the rest is there don’t deny it; cause we all breathe as one let’s deny it; and maybe we’ll writhe as one that’s denial; well don’t we all feel as one? don’t deny it; because we all die as one ... swallowed by time. that you have poise and honor it’s not what you think... it’s not how we want.

whatever you want whatever you need if your loving arms enfold me I take what I can I’ve taken all that I can stand we reap what we sow we’ve all got something let it grow cause we are what we are whatever you want is that what you need? God’s loving arms enfold me I did what I’ve done we’ve all done something; we can’t run I am what I am we’ve all hurt someone let it go cause we are what we are whatever you want whatever you need will those loving arms enfold me? I did what I could I’ve done about all I can stand we reap what we sow we’ve all got something let it grow cause we are what we are whatever you want is that what you need?

all we wanted was a show we could never let it go truth, cover your eyes the lightning in the lotus I now see: compassion is the wisest choice... well all you wanted was a show I could never let it go truth, open your eyes the lightning in the lotus I now seize... om mani padme hum

how come you always say that you’re not happy with the way things happened to you? as if you could catch life in your palms just wringing it dry night after night I’m talking to you wringing it dry night after night... how come I always play the same old tired song yeah day into day? it’s all that I ever had, the strangest whim to play well I’m playing for you I’m ringing it true wringing it dry night after night... how come you always take to flight whenever something new comes sailing your way? it’s just like you always said, the strong ones burn away well who’s burning for you? who’s bringing it true? wringing it dry night after night? high strung, and curious rage I bear that stain our hearts bound, in tandem chained here we now remain: it’s not getting easier with time it’s not what you think... (if/do you think at all?) I must have lost my way I looked away, now I can’t remember a damn thing... it’s the same old tune, the same old song and dance it’s the same old sky, we wither and die away the things you use, the words you choose to say these you see as different... well I couldn’t hold that door I can’t believe that which was speaking through me... (lock the door) the cultured beast is a hideous freak to view it’s the same old war, the age old bore ... today the gods you seek, the words you choose to say none of these are different, they are the same... we’re not the same but is what we seek so different?

naïve 00:52
bumming around the house again what could I say to you, to make you understand? we’re waiting in lines for coins you really should know how could we be so goddamn naive?

clear blue eyes harboring secrets oh what a glorious day out by the lake where we hide who am I? master or slave? out by the railway... little angel and me (oh my) she’s forgotten how to cry little baby breaks easy something I’ll never own so why, why do I pray for the mystery enslaved? how could I hope to remain dauntless? convey all of that shame? out by the freeway... little angel and me (oh my) I’d forgotten how to die little baby breaks easy something you’ll never know so why try to explain oh, the mystery in vain?
