What can I tell you
that you don't know
way down deep in your soul
in your fingers
and your toes
in your skin and bones?
What can I make
to make you see
All of you is all of me
and we are never
really free
at all...
At all.
I want you to understand
what you think is mine
I am not commanding
I am listening more than
you could stand
to know about.
Do you want to know the way
well I suspect you already know the way
and I'm just getting in the way
of this knowing...
Don't mistake what I'm doing
for some kind of growing
Except if you're noticing
all this knowing is
just tuning in.
I can't teach you anything you don't already know
and you can't teach me what I don't know either
We're just
following...

Blue Moon Eyes
04:12
|
|||
When the moon is blue like your eyes sometimes
Are bluer than the night sky
And you want to fly away...
When the colors around you are getting stale
and you're pale and lost in a moment
Do you wonder if you will be found
in the cold ground
and lost to even the birds?
(I guess it's not a waste of anything...but dirt)
Do you know if you'll be ready to leave?
Do you wonder if you'll need to breathe again?
Do you want to hold my hand?

Made For

Light and fiction
Light needs fiction
Like God needs lies
Light and blindness
Light needs blindness
Like eyes need the same thing
And I don't want to be so blind
to what is working in my life
I don't want to be so unwise
to deny that this works in my life
I don't want you to misunderstand
the things I need
or confuse them with
not needing you
with not needing this
too
All this light in the world can't fill me up
if I'm afraid to be full
All the light in the world can't fill me up
if I'm afraid of what I was made for
All this light in the sky can't light my eyes on fire
if I'm afraid of what I was made for
All the light in my veins can't take the place of all this blood
if I'm afraid of what I was made for

Explorers
06:05
|
|||
In this timeframe
that I framed
for you
In this interplanetary
web of dreams
coming true
And like a timeline
going nowhere
going somewhere
that feels new
You are here
inside me
like an ocean
like a bridge
to anything but here
It's clear
We're not
Going anywhere
It's clear
Here
It's clear that
We're not
Made to be
Explorers
Here
It's clear that
All of us are
Wanting to be found
Like feet on the ground
Like a home should be
Here with you
in my heart
in my mind
With you
in my thoughts
and my time
I'm not afraid like
I used to be afraid
Most the time.

Seeing all this green like light and
Seeing all this light like green in your eyes
Seeing all this love like things that grow on trees
Seeing all this blue like the sky
Seeing all this sky like blue in my eyes
And I want to hold this forever
But birds can fly away
And they sing like some kind of
Great mistake in the sky
When all this was made to be
So temporary
Seeing all this light like
Some kind of unending night that glows with all we know
Seeing all this love like
Some kind of great ocean overflowing with everything we wanted
here
but...
All these clouds in the sky
They are passing by
They pass us by and
They remind you and I that
Everything is so temporary.

Garden
02:59
|
|||
In this garden
time and space are
at the moment
of arrival
Somewhere
waiting
time knows we're ready
for this place
to have been a lie.

The Same Mistakes
06:34
|
|||
We take it in
and go in ways
we don't understand at all
We get it wrong
We go too slow for too long
And we don't see the ways
we are really all the same here
It's clear we're all making the same mistakes
It's clear to me anyway
even if it's not to you
I would like to fly away most of the time
cause I can't understand the point or purpose
of each rhyme
And maybe it's not mine to understand
or decide
why we're here at all...
