Wanting more
Will only get you
Wanting more forever and ever

Song
Go down any street you haven't turned down yet today
Don't wait to finish these lines

Eve
I feel her arms around me
My mother
Born at the creation of the world
My mother
Born at the creation of the world
New arms are stretched above me
Blood shed before the foundation

What do you do
When the smiles aren't fake
You feel like a million, billion, trillion dollars has just somehow fallen into your lap
You can ford the rough waters
Build bridges
And climb over mountains that seemed impossible before
And it seems like forever is not a long way ahead
Or even a long time ago
For forever is now

The ship
Art and beauty haunts me
It tells me of a land where I came from
An island I was born on
It tells me of my home
And all I want to do
In these piercing, bloody, painful moments
Is jump on the first ship -
But I can't find one
I lie in torment
I lie writhing in pain
Remind me, oh blackbirds
Perching in a tree
Watching crawling insects
Watching me
Remind me, chirping dogs
Bouncing squirrels
Climbing vines
Slime trailing snails
Tell me winter, cold and dark
Tell me, springtime flowers hearts
Tell me autumn, summer blue
Fashion flesh and make me new
Tell me feet that carry me
'Cross ocean waters, wild and free
Tell me island stepping stones
That these sweet breaths are not my home
Come in whispers, shadows, lies
Tales and stories, lullabies
Come in reflections, make your nest
Glide to my shoulder, make your rest
Come towering mountain, make me low
Come shower the earth with lazy snow
Come shining moon, a frosty pearl
A dream of ancient dusty worlds
A peeled banana
A spinning wheel
Beyond the markets cold and steel
Coat of fresh paint
Plume of smoke
Greying hair an aged cloak
Bring me fire from the sun
A dying dream, a smoking gun
Watch every program on TV
Build admiration, plant a tree
Build every tower every sky
Has ever seen with watchful eye
Come word, be nameless, come like day
Come change this shape of this small clay
Come come deliver, make it right
Small newborn crying in the night

The end
The end of a chapter
I sit in your pocket now
Snuggled and tuggled and tucked away
It's a perfect fit
I sit in your pocket now
Snuggled and tuggled and tucked away
It's a perfect fit
The end of an empire
The grandest illusion
Clandestine confusion
Great balls of fire
There's a tall tower above me
Made of ivory
Still focused on just one little pinpoint of light in the night sky
And I'm ablaze down here
Just trying to see
If I could be seen by you

the "how-to"
Many of us wish to teach But the how to is a cave The how to is cold and dark The how to is a grave |
