I was out on my own
 no one by my side
 thinking of you
 and the things we've tried I was out on my own
 on the trail you blazed
 I dreamt of the day
 that our son was made What a beautiful love...
That I've come to know
when I'm with you... Let's go out in the night
 and see if the moon still shines
 there's smoke in the grass
 see how it shines like glass It's the dew in the leaves
 a short crunch down the avenue
 hide and seek in the trees
 you'd surely say it if I were you What a beautiful love...
that I've procured
when I'm with you

CHAD 02:33
Hands upon the wild one in the night The moon is down, it’s been like that all my life They were at my window last night Should’ve known by the sight of that red fire light The deer upon my sill do sure seem fine A fine coat of dirt, just like mine The winnowing ash-pole walls of the long house The heat from the hearth, the home of the field mouse The pick of the litter, the gleam of the night path Watch the earth mound up, I’m lovin the aftermath Hey!

Cut down the forest and put up a parking lot Buy all you need and pretend it’s just what you want You breath in pollution, it takes you, it makes you feel good Consume your fair share and conduct yourself just like you should Clean yourself up! With the fat that is boiled from the whales Buy fashionable clothes! Constructed from fox tails You spit out the fumes from your car with indigenous pride All that is human of you is what you seem to hide… Forget about eternal youth and find the universal truth.

HOME 04:06
I got this thing I call a home I build it up to hold my bones I wedge the timber in the stone I watch it glow when I’m alone… A sudden shift that I suppose, Has nothing to do with all this cold A set of lips with I propose There’s nothing I’d rather do than build a home A fool’s fit, pitched instead of thrown A new wound, stitched instead of sewn The way you move, you shift and moan I watch you grow when we’re alone A sudden shift that I suppose, Has nothing to do with all this cold A set of lips with I propose There’s nothing I’d rather do than build a home

FORESTASIA 04:07
All day long we’re singing songs We’re teasin’ bees, and we’re dancing the way we’d like them to All day long we’re fooling around I’m playing lots of games, it’s a wonder you only fell for two I’m glad to know you, you know its true It’s getting harder for a few I’m sowing seeds now I’m full of snow But in the autumn The hill will glow I’m drinking tea with you, Forestasia I’m learning from you, Forestasia The birds are filling Up the trees The grass is reaching for our knees The skin is tanning The wind is slow I’m reaching up as the forest grows I’m drinking tea with you, Forestasia I’m learning from you, Forestasia

LOTUS 01:57
My love for you is growing , slowly But with purpose Looks like lilies pushing up to the surface The moon is waning now and it’s showing Wisdom flows like rain upon my back In circular design my blood is flowing My bare body feels the wind and I’m free Free of all this weight I’m floating…
7.
OPEN LETTER 03:11
You speak of things we used to do When we were young You speak of things we used to do Just to have fun But I’m confused, with just what you want me to do And I’m confused, with how I’m going to grow old with you You’re selling all the things That were keeping you young Boxing up your valuables Tying to get back to, where you begun Oh, to start new, a whole new life with nothing else to do But I’m confused, by how I got trapped in here with you Stay away from me Stay the fuck away from me You old man I’m fighting your influence, I’m fighting just as hard as I can But I’m confused, with how I’m going to get on without you And I’m confused, with just what you want me to do

BAD ADVICE 02:53
You didn’t take my bad advice when I gave it Oh so free, no you’d forsake it. Maybe that’s the reason your hurt… Captivating empty lives but you hate it Drought has come, yeah Now you’d embrace it Couldn’t shake this guilty cloud From my shoulder Oh, so black The worlds feeling colder… Maybe that’s the reason I’m here Baby that’s the reason I’m here When your not here there’s a special black feeling I know, I know, I know the feeling Only you could give this cold hard meaning I know, I know, I know the meaning…

You send the one you love And see what you get in return You send the one you got And learn the lesson they’re dying to learn You know that I would call on you, That is if I trusted you You know that I would hold out my hand to you, If I didn’t know what you’d put me through… I know your kind and the trouble you’d go through, To get me alone with you I can tell by the way you smell and the way you move, I could get completely caught up in you.. If I didn’t know what you’d put me through… You send the one you love And see what you get in return You send the one you got And learn the lesson they’re dying to learn

ROSE RIFLE 02:18
The stars, the cars, the birds the trees The spherical illusion of how alone to be Extra-terrestrial landscape with the sound of a fog Short breath, red birth, and a Technicolor trachea Reborn, anew, with the limbs of a bug Can’t clear my ear of the congested traffic fuzz The dead tall prisoners and the ropes that they carry Full-on tantric sex brings the light of epiphany Reluctant hands, meeting new breeds of germs My stomach, my limbs all filled with guinea worms The instinctive pull, bacteria flips the lights To numb the burn of rebirthing parasites.

SWEETLY 01:20
Taking the high road Instead of the low road Moves through my body Makes me feel so old Treating me sweetly From the moment you met me
