Guard Your Heart

You gotta guard, guard your heart
don't just give it all to just anyone
you gotta protect, protect your soul
Or else you'll end up with nothing for yourself
Two or three there must be trust
Chemically feelings combust
As the moon shines down on the pale thin grass
like the whispers of grey in your hair
Reminds me how the time goes by fast
moments disappear in thin air
Pleasure continues as happiness fades, feed the monster while
you swear you're digging' it's grave
but the deeper it goes, the deeper it flows
and you cycle back to the beginning
Who knows? Who knows? Who knows?

Bees Knees

You are the Bee's Knees
Even more noble then the tall still trees
Thank you for this time together
I will always remember it forever
You make the butterflies in my guts
go so crazy fluttering nuts
Your face is so easter bright
it glows like a lumi in the pitch dark night
You are the Bee's knees
You are so beautiful to me.
And you're made of that sweet cherry nectar honey
Oh Beautiful you
You are the Bee's Knees
Even more noble then the tall still trees
Every time your blue eyes meet mine
I could swear it could stop time
You make the butterflies in my guts
go so crazy fluttering nuts
Your the sweetest soul I've ever known
In my heart there's a seed you've sewn
You are the Bee's knees
You are so beautiful to me.
And you're made of that sweet cherry nectar honey
Oh Beautiful you

Arbor Song

They were there, a bit after the beginning
when the giant's existence was thinning
found deep in the valleys below
and on the mountains where high winds blow
They grow the best they can, no matter where they're sewn
They already know the secrets we're tryin' to find
and those rings within, they can tell you a lot
about when this place didn't cause such grief
maybe we'd listen, if only, if only these trees could talk
No complaint of concrete being built around them
bleeding sap tears as limbs are amputated again
giving a shade from the hot summer sun
humble me by their heights which scatter the lights
In a world obsessed with extreme rapidity, they provide a calm air of serenity......
They already know the secrets we're tryin' to find
and those rings within, they can tell you a lot
about when this place didn't cause such grief
maybe we'd listen, if only, if only these trees could talk
As we let the sun shine it's heat upon us, we basked like lizards finding our sweet solace
we saw in the sky, our lives shown up high
never to let this old river run dry
blue, green, yellow, turquoise, and auburns this old growth forest speaks
loud through it's ferns , loud through it's ferns
it tells us to use this whole planet with care
or else these returns will become quite rare.

Exotic Animals
03:58

To escape I found a small little corner
of the planet lush with jungle life and exotic animals
I join with few others there
after going down some submarine hallway set of stairs
To the boiler room
down through the boiler room
this is where is the last pure part of the planet lies
this will be our new home
our own mini utopia
to escape the poison, to escape
Ohhh
lock the door so we can open from inside
this will be our last true home our way to stay alive
there will be no more room fro others to join the fight
exotic plants and animals covered in spots and stripes
many great cozy lovely mosses by the streams
in this apocalyptic chemical free scene
we can't release
we can't release
the freshest air
untouched and rare

Hologram
03:41
|

Before you came into my life I already knew you existed
and some reasons I wondered about yet you are what I had missed
a voice so sweet and familiar like music to my ears
your presence lifts me up from all my ever knowing fears
if the universe is made of holograms then you are my favorite
collection of vibrations and thoughts in one spirit.
Hold up now we've got something here
glowing up just having you near
If reality is merely 2-D then there's no "real" plane to achieve
as we wander about this illusion, intuition is all we need
heart rate goes down calming and I meditate in the soothing
chest cave that I burrowed in just to hear you breathing
If the universe is made of holograms then you are my favorite
collection of vibrations and thoughts in one spirit.
hold up now we've got something here
glowing up just having you near
hold up now we've got something here
glowing up just having you near
Before you came into my life I already knew you existed
and some reasons I wondered about yet you are what I had missed
If the universe is made of holograms then you are my favorite
collection of vibrations and thoughts in one spirit.

Orange Trees

There is a place with orange trees
That casts a shade of delicate pink
Find the key, unlock the door
Never tell a soul
Behind the mirror what lies within
Are beasts and birds with orange skin
They whistle and sing "My darling!"
and cradle you in their wings
Searching for a form of endless bliss
given through the driest kiss, laid upon
the crown of your head
Return once more, cement your fate
pack with you nothing bring only your weight
Give everything away to those
who tried to help you though……………

Sunlight

There may be a better time to to fall in deep
but now I know that this bliss we can't deny, we can;t deny we gotta get above it now we can't deny it now.
There may be a better time to fall in love but nows the time don't you hurry up you gotta wait it out take it slow or else you'll trample it to death and fall in the snow
You won't freeze your heart it'll just be frozen in time
and then you may be someone else for your entire frozen life.
Sunlight on your face………..
Flakes of gold and winter snow falls upon the ice lake reeling going down the slope ski slips slowly I can see your nose glow brightly
Past the pastures into the waves diving deeply swim beneath thee coral chorus of the coast of ambiance its time to grow…. with the
Sunlight on your face…………..
Oh can you be the one I want oh can you see the things I love
can't you be the that person I've been looking for, thank god I found you.
This is not the perfect time but it'll never be so lets jump in. let's jump down this rabbit hole and get to the bottom and find the crystals in disguise, in disguise
I love finding forests in your eyes
As, as the solar light flare sparkle ricochets

Writer's Block

There once was all the time in the world to make things right
But now the dust is settling, falling from our sight
How many times must we revisit this place
Releasing all out energy again into empty space
Always writing, reaching from inside
Feelings and introspection driv eme wild
Introspection fully takes flight
Ideas and lessons burning at night
How can we grow past the things we feel
when often nothing feels real
Blurring and blockage to what we receive
Hard to enable our brains to release
There once was all the time in the world to make things right
But now the dust is settling, falling from our sight
How many times must we revisit this place
Releasing all out energy again into empty space
Easy does it, easy does it don;'t engulf too much of it
leaping over obstacles and bends
to find the perfect summary of words to defend!
Visualize someone else's solution ,
but have no strength to fight your own revolution
Blurring and blockage to what we receive
Hard to enable our brains to release
Emotions can be removed from afar
There's no easy way to heal the scars

Clock Tower
04:32

No one has an expiration date
Distance, travel we can calculate
What had bloomed meant so much to me
Flashbacks happen quite so frequently
I once saw you from afar
Right along a crowded street
Images and thoughts
memories get caught in the grooves created by the brain
As the iron runs through the highways of
our body smooth trickling on through
whoa
You can play a moment over and over again
like a record round and round always spinning'
and the end of it all
goes back to the beginning
like a clock tower bell it's always ringing
