[chorus]
oh birds fly into window panes
where moths pine for the light
while I sit here wondering
what's beyond this electric night?
what's beyond this electric night...
these mirrors they can talk to you
they can toil foil and scream
shake us masters of a universe
that will break and curse and leave
break curse and recede
after bloody kneed from crawling to find each pretty splinter in the mud
there'll be the sky from another side
and the weight below the above
the weight below up above
[chorus]
ain't the brightest star a shinin'
ain't the hardest hand yet delt
but a good witch keeps her stiches in
till the bad bruises gone & melt
until the bad bruises gone & melt
melt away those jagged edges
turn your eyes unto the dark
where waits the silent ebb of life
craddled in each home & heart
oh birds fly into window panes
where moths pine for the light
while I sit here wondering
far beyond this electric night?
far beyond this electric night...

Forest of Dreams

save space for a memory of me
a ghost over your shoulder
tossed round north winds growing colder
a lullaby echoed out of reach
a voice that howls in the forest of your dreams
save space for a memory of me
hold time for when the clock strikes still
mmm... on our remembrance
of tongue tied transcendence
indecision swirling round
wayward visions of lips & hips abound
hold time for when the clock stands still
save this note that I wrote for you
short of metaphors for all I know to be true
carved out by my finest hand in red
for you I bleed
by the full moon I bled
by the moonlight in murky seas
I heard a hallowed heart beckon to me
it strung me forth in wordless noise
& drowned me deep
in endless void, in endless void
a lullaby echoed out of reach
a void that howls in the forest of your dreams...
dreams that roam
wild & free
join the dance of rootless trees
without the earth to plant them tall
when the north winds blow
oh how they'll fall oh how they'll fall...ooo
for you I bled
by the full moon I bled

feels like fire, burning up to ash
feels like water, carving out a path
feels like fire, smoke signals in the air
feels like water, mermaids everywhere
feels like air, drowning out these lungs
feels like earth, as far as I have dug
feels like air, underneath these wings
feels like earth, full circle every ol' spring
feels like a hollow sort of sorrow
feels like full sort of glad
heaven don't make you pretty
& hell don't mean you're damned...
I feel like water, fire air and earth
scorch these flames with rain, these fumes will bloom rebirth
I feel old & I feel new
in this unending loop of youth...

Like the Sea

she loves me
I know she does
she listens half the time I know
she is not mine nor yours nor thees
like the branch is not the birds and the bird is not the trees
she is not lost in fallowed wants
when she is flying free
her lovely hands do too know callus
from strength she bore long before those scars of malice
& like a dove she growls of love
& like the sea she is wide open, unending...
free...free...free
she listens to me, I know she does
she loves me, I know she does
she is not mine, nor your, nor thees
like the honey is not ours & the flowers not the bees
be free...
she listens to me, I know she does
she loves me, I know she does'
she wants the world for me
& I can see
& like the sea
she is wide open, mind, soul & body
she is free...
free...

been preached we're all sinners
prophesied we're angels in disguise
surely we're both & so much more than meets the eye
apple of my eye temptation at my door
a taste could be so sweet but best beware a rotting core
oh... dawn to dusk
rise to fall
creator and destroyer
evoke the goddess in us all
these masks they are molded
on the playgrounds of idled hands
worn by the storm of withholding our souls from our promised lands
peak behind the blinds
behold a world beyond our time
open up the shades
shed light on our shadowed ways
heads or tales
wrong or right
dreaming by day
& haunted by night
a chasm cracks open
the mouth of a whale
consumes all we're holding in
raises mast and sets sail
a journey cross waters
unheard and unseen
we'll drown and we'll flounder
& kiss the shore on our knees
oh... flesh to dust
lost or found
to the earth and sky we are bound
dawn to dusk
rise to fall
creator and destroyer
evoke the goddess in us all

Yellow Walls

if I'm mad is that bad?
If I'm sane, who's to blame?
Pretty yellow walls from whence she crawls
stains my peace with her creeps
I'm feeling so much better
Floating light as a feather
I'm feeling oh so free
Despite the lock & key oo...
got a rope with just one hope:
to tie her down if she doth prowl
haunts my days just for play
creeps my nights just from spite (just from spite)
I'm feeling oh so nervous
like somehow I deserve this
feeling oh so a daze
from the shame brought to my name...
if im mad is that bad?
If i'm sane who's to blame?
BUT... I ain't never been in to bein' sane (x?͚)
they keep telling me how these eyes ought to see
they keep telling me how these lungs ought to breathe
they keep telling me how this mind ought to think
& with a lock & key they say they'll set me free
but I ain't never been into to bein' sane...

Lone Wolf

lone wolf cries in the dark of the night
alone as its roams & stalks out moonlight
only of its kind there no place to hide
carried by its plight & will to survive
it's not waiting around...
dark wolf howls on the lonesome hours
guided by shadows igniting its powers
with nothing to fear, of nothing it cowers
lost in its wonders, disappears off to wander
not waiting around...
