search for something more
find it if its true
facts will take you in the right direction
logic will guide you through
and don't just believe your
eyes and ears or what seems right then
the numbers that surround it all
they have to correlate too
don't fall into some
cozy thinking
you got to find out, and rule out
every single possibility
feed the brain each day
research and know the way
not believing what your
eyes and ears seemed right then
the numbers that were there they showed a
statistical significance
you ruled in, and ruled out
each and every single possibility, that you thought of
and the answer you found
will be continued
to be confirmed...
let the world see what you found
and let them try to shred it all and all and all apart
and if they can't
while others confirmed what you found
and continued to pass it around
each one that participates
may be enemy or friend
"Sound is all around us...everywhere
it beats in our eardrums until much of the time
we are hardly conscious of it
but on this particular Saturday morning
Jimmy Foster suddenly became very conscious of it..."
not all will agree...
"Son,
You're still a citizen with the power to vote.
Living in a scientific age we need citizens
who know enough about science
to make intelligent decisions about what they do.
We use science to prolong life,
increase security and happiness,
but it could also be used for destruction.
Are we gonna use it constructively to promote peace
and give the world freedom from want?
It will be up to you, and you too...
Yeah, I see what you mean.
It gives a fella a lot to think about..."
give me lots to think about
because between you and me
and between us and them
were just human after all
all alone in the dark
and in that dark
there’s no other way to be found
then to constantly search all around
in here somewhere
is something that we must all know... and it has to be confirmed
and don't just believe your
eyes and ears or what seems right then
the numbers that surround it all
they have to correlate too
don't fall into some
cozy thinking
you got to find out, and rule out
every single possibility
not believing what your
eyes and ears seemed right then
the numbers there they showed a
statistical significance
you ruled in, and ruled out
each and every possibility, that you thought of
and the answer you found
will be continued
to be confirmed...

Cater to My Dissillusion
05:11
|
|||
Everybody see me
everybody needs me
everybody got to know what I know
I'll burn in the sunshine
I'll freeze in the moon light
I'll fear of the times when I had lost my mind
ever since I've left you
ever since I've called you
ever since I've faced the disconnected line
never ever thought that this could be such a mess
never ever thought that you would call my bluff
never ever wanted to be oh so much alone
never ever wanted to be out on my own
(talk, don't talk)
you used to cater to my disillusion
just take me out and put me away
steal my voice?
won't say what you want me to say
it's unacceptable
so force me to another place
make me a different man
again they medicate me
again they try and shape me
again the mold starts to hold
escape from delusion
wake from illusion
but life has been drained from my mind
let them all take what I worked so hard for
watch them just reap it all
just one voice
always say what you want me to say
It's proper and acceptable
I've traveled to another place
turned into a different man
(talk, don't talk)
just cater to my disillusion
and pack me up and send me away

Falling
06:06
|
|||
Sleepless night
restless flight, bumpy seat
up all day too
hotel stay, and I can't sleep
back at home
there's the phone, yet again
there's no time left
alarm chimes and I get dressed
sleep, sleep, sleep
dream, dream, dream,
I can't look now cause I'm falling
oh yes I'm falling at the ground
the birds nearby are calling
yes they are calling me around
and I turn around to see
that they are all laughing at me.
baggy eyes
yawn and sigh, body ache
energy gone
look at me, I'm a wreck
sleep, sleep, sleep
dream, dream, dream
I can't look now cause I'm falling
oh yes I'm falling at the ground
the birds nearby are calling
oh yes they're calling me around
and I ask them why they laugh at me
they said look around you'll see
can’t catch me now cause I’m climbing
oh yes I'm climbing towards the sky
the birds see now I'm flying
oh yes I'm flying very high
yes and luckily for me
I completely missed you see
***The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy states: "There is an art to flying, or rather a knack. Its knack lies in learning to throw yourself at the ground and miss. ... Clearly, it is this second part, the missing, that presents the difficulties." -Douglas Adams

First Break
07:52
|

Hey you i am right hear
right by your ear but you
can't see my face i am
no place but in
your sick mind
you seem to me to be
someone who needs to leave
this world your bad your mad
you lost your mind
smash your head through the wall
I have such hate ingrate
you cant participate
you sealed your fate so just
escape and walk
in front of that car
we know that you and me
will always be best friends
you jerk you ass every
one now is
reading your mind
get out of my mind
i don't need you
I fear you and please
Stop saying those things
when I hear you
the doctors tell me not to listen
your just a disease
like cancer
I did nothing to deserve this
I’m sick and I’m tired
I'll just lay here
shut out the world pull myself away
you go ahead and hide
I'll just take things over
and try and climb up a
sky high bridge
and fly through the air
they say your sick you know
your not they are evil
they lie they medicate
and crush you
so get the fuck out of there
run towards the door kick hard
its locked kick more bang with
your fist don’t let the staff
restrain you
they will tie you down
halperdol, lorazipan, benztropine
thorazine, clozapine, olanzapine
come on wake up someone
unstrapped you from the bed
so get up and don't look
so confused
you don't deserve life
don’t' take any more of
those pills you will just be
turned in to a puppet
of their will
hang yourself with your clothes
bugs that burrow under
your skin they win again
at night while the worms crawl
right into
your sick mind
your deep in my mind
always hear you
there’s nothing I can do to stop this
I'm losing myself
in this prison
locked away by all who loved me
more sick and more tired
worse than cancer
at least with that you could die
don't have the strength
I'm falling
waiting to violently crash to the ground

Wake Me
11:18
|
|||
In me there's not much left but
you still crawl in my mind
the future is so unsettled
left all my pieces behind
I’m looking at the world through a fog
that blinds me
medications that obscures and blurs my mind
please shake me
please wake me
although the voice within is dulled and bearable
I do fear that I've have lost my soul
look at it another way you can spend time
completely in control
trust the ones who care for you and then in time
see clearly all your goals
clearing off the fog will come, the mind adjusts
much better every turn
don't think that you’ll burn as bright, too bright
and you will probably just burn
remember just to keep yourself in check
health or hell you can discern
so I feel I’m
calling, bawling, crawling
nothing to say
stalling, falling, sprawling
no light with the day
hauling, brawling, mauling
myself to the grave
I need to be
to be to need
to plant the seed
and then succeed
indeed
so see the world through brand new eyes
new colors, lights and feelings will take hold
and one day, this today
will be a long, long, time ago
so I must stop
calling, bawling, crawling
nothing to say
stalling, falling, sprawling
no light with the day
hauling, brawling, mauling
myself to the grave
I need to be
to be to need
to plant the seed
and then succeed
indeed
and now the voice is dulled and bearable
I hope to move on and find my soul
I'm released shake me
I'm released wake me
looking at the world now it is clear and bright and true
might even just smile away there’s nothing better to do
calling, bawling, crawling
nothing to say
stalling, falling, sprawling
no light with the day
hauling, brawling, mauling
myself to the grave...

When You Go
05:58
|
|||
When you go...
its certainly nice when it's quiet
and I can hear you no more
I sit alone in the sunshine
feeding the birds
nobody to tell me nothing
of any importance to me
I sit back and wonder what happened
there are no words
when you go...
its kinda strange being alone
you were a part of my mind
eventually I'm sure you'll come back
in due time
but now I sit in this sunshine
listening to nothing at all
a bird that's nearby starts to sing
his sweet and lonely song
when you go...
you know that you gave me nothing
why must I keep you around - me
just like the coldest of winters
no warmth would ever be found - from you
and so you left me with nothing
and yet you always come back - here
and if I let my defences down
you'll return to attack

Start Over Again

Start Over Again
Roll down the window
watch the road flow by
let the wind whip through my hair
the speed it makes me feel alive
I feel so free
ending this chapter
forever turn the page
what it was, it was
and just because it was
it will always be
sometimes I feel that this is all a mistake
sick nervous fear right at my core
why not just give it up and call it a day
but something inside me it shouts out
how could I ever live with myself
just take a big deep breath
compose myself
OK alright
I'll start over again
so much older
than I've ever dreamed
but this old dog can do more today
then he ever could have dreamed
just wait and see
I'll never forget
the places I have been
all those times the good and bad
regrets and happiness
all a part of me
sometimes I feel that this is all a mistake
sick nervous fear right at my core
just can't give up I'll never call it a day
each day I will smile when I wake up
easily being myself
a stretch and a big deep breath
ready myself
it will be alright
to start over again
each day I will smile when I wake up
easily being myself
a stretch and a big deep breath
ready myself
it will be alright
and each day I will smile when I wake up
easily being myself
a stretch and a big deep breath
ready myself
it really is all alright

Inspiration Desperation
10:30
|
|||
ah-ha, yes, eureka, solution, answer, clarity
It just hit me in an instant
a flash of inspiration sharp and bright
left me floundering to record it down
felt like an instant in time but it lasted all night
the work after was easy
piece by piece each part fell into place
working day and night each component
formed into a whole with a beautiful grace
I don't wanna be where I can't be found
I don't wanna see if the lights go down
I don't wanna feel if my life, is changed, reversed, with you here
so we released it to the masses
a reception so bright everything so right
sparkling reviews that all praise
come out for days and days and days
we did more than a million now
it grows every day an exponential wave
win awards and adulations
the talk of the town nothing's ever gonna pull me down
I will never be where I can't be found
I will never see the lights ever go down
I will never feel that my life, has changed, reversed, no you here
I don't wanna be where I can't be found
I don't wanna see if the lights go down
I don't wanna feel if my life, is changed, reversed, with you here
I will never be where I can't be found
I will never see the lights ever go down
I will never feel my life, is chained, reversed, no you here

Follow the Flow
05:12
|
|||
You know that life it goes
follow the flow
(occasionally - swim against the stream)
now I rise
in the morning
sleep all night a luxury
that I have come accustomed to
to get to see the day
sun shows the way
burning off the darkest clouds of sad
and at work
helping people
money sucks not rich in wealth
but you should see my fulfilled heart
I go home everyday
tired and drained
but as happy as I’ve ever been
look for more
as we all do
if happiness is hard to find
relax and it will come to you
it's right here it's right here
pick a goal
don't make it simple
make it hard with a result
that puts you in a better place
it's right here it's right here
sit outside
on my day off
enjoy the sun, the air, the views
the mountains in the summertime
watching my dogs they play
no cares each day
their happiness it spreads to me sets me free
sleep in till nine
roast some Toba
brew it up and drink
and dream of the next adventure to do
you know that life it goes
follow the flow
(occasionally - swim against the stream)
look for more
as we all do
if happiness is hard to find
relax and it will come to you
it's right here it's right here
pick a goal
don't make it simple
make it hard with a result
that puts you in a better place
it's right here it's right here
you know that life it goes
follow the flow
(occasionally - swim against the stream)

Dream of Eliza Rose
03:56
|
|||
Inside a dream
she's running and playing with a smile
swinging on a swing
laughing with another child
then she's sitting next to me
no longer a child
a beautiful young lady
eyes so beautiful and bright
tears well up in my eyes
she smiles and says “be at peace”
I want to take her back home
escape from this dream
turn back time...
she's standing nearby me
now a woman with her child
the child runs off to play
she doesn’t look my way
then a hand lays on my arm
I turned around to see
a beautiful grey lady
eyes so sharp and clear and wise
tears roll down from my eyes
holding me close she sings “be at peace”
I see its time to let go
and wake up without
Eliza Rose

Don't Throw it Away
03:46
|
|||
Just look at this life
rust corroded broken dreams
this was the last strike
can't continue this it seems
don't look in the mirror
won't like what I see
this all has to end
but what will the answer be...
to end it all somehow
to leave this world by my own hand
or should I try to fight
and get my life back now
this life is a gift
and its mine alone
feel far too tired
heart is racing I can not see
hands are shaking
sweat covers from head to feet
I think its time to
close the door and lock the key
don't throw it away...

After the Work
01:48
|
|||
Know that inside you have
something that was lost
but it was allways there near
your heart no matter how
frozen it turned out to be
you have the flame to restore
after the work
then finally you'll turn around
like what you see
and see your world anew
then you can just smile
and know how hard you tried for this
and won in the end
