AND I DON’T BELONG: to hear you now talking its like you can’t look up/you say you cannot win this/show me someone that could/you say its devoured/you say its all vanished/& there’s no love to offer/that could ever do any good/yr poisoned tongue lashes/all that yr passing/you say there’s no heart there/show me one thing that’s good/you say no & never & nothing & nowhere/n there’s no love to offer/it never does any good/& I don’t belong . to hear you talk it’s like you’ve never loved/you have a way looking at the ground that says you can’t look up for it’s their world/yr poison tongue is warning off the simple kindness shown in feeling shown in wanting shown in love/for its their world yr trapped in . walk in chains/you walk in chains .

LOCKED-IN: &, yr locked-in/ever locked-in, high & dry n mercenary/& when I see you frightened/it makes me so ashamed/& yr locked-in/ever locked-in/taken in travesty/& when I see you hiding/it makes me so ashamed . who took yr heart from me?/who took yr truth from me? . & I waited, ever trusting/n always I believed in you/n when I feel so frightened/it makes me so ashamed/& I stood still/for yr one word - always looking for the proof/& when I’m lost & hiding/it makes me so ashamed . you took yr heart from me/you took yr truth away/you took yr heart .

I Also Dwell

I ALSO DWELL: now, as the blossoms fall & leave us/now when the night departs alone/now I call out to what I believe in/I find that I’m arriving here alone . once the world spoke to me all as morning/& told me of the flowers I’d come to know/& time showed me much, yet spoke of grieving/& I find I’m standing at the crossroads in the roads . outside and inside, where the leaves are alive/threading their bright tendrils of soul … blessing, the blossoms break, & they breathe in/I’m praying at the crossroads here alone . the roads rise and vanish from my sight/they stretch out so far/& I can’t be sure which is the winding path/& which is the straight way to my heart .

WIDE OPEN: in the light/in the sun’s shine, that’s the time I love the most/in the rain & in the dark light, that’s the time I love the most/when the Sun moves on/and the light is gone/& I know I love this time the most . in the closeness/in the distance/that’s the time I love the most/in the warmth & in the coldness/that’s the time I love the most/& the night has come/& the light has gone/& I know I love these times the best . & the time moves on/& the newness comes/& I know/I love these times the most . & the change is made/& I’m won over again/& I know I love these times the most .

|
OLDER DAY: yr alone then/outside of the warmth/at night, with no word/yr remote then/held away & held down/out of place/& yr frightened/ lamenting yr words/& you are cut down slow/to choke on yr words . be ready then, for whatever you see, and what’s unknown/be waiting then/for wherever you’ll be/for wherever you’ll go/and you’ll move on/tho you move on alone/& you’ll change the day/to live, to grow .

And I Dreamt

|
AND I DREAMT : & I dreamt I was taken to a place so unknown/so unclear/so strange to me/far and forlorn/& I walked with the nightsky wrapping dark around me close/as I look to the places I thought that you’d know/& I closed both my eyes/n I thought of yr face/so real and alive to me/for love n for praise/for comfort/for companionship/true n alive/n I dreamed I was taken in a dream that night .

AMAZED: yes you are breaking away/holding everything I say/that I say today/putting it in sorrow’s way/you are breaking away/afraid to be alive . you divide this day/breaking it with hollow pride/that stops up the way/pushing both of us aside/as yr breaking away/scared of being alive/I can’t say yr name/i can’t reason that yr right . you amaze me .

Gentle
04:15
|

|
GENTLE: yr becoming a stranger in yr body/as yr living and giving for me/yr becoming a stranger in yr body/as yr reaching in blind sympathy . yr a stranger in yr own body/yr an image a mind misformed/& the image is what you can’t be/& yr looking to here to be born . gentle/you gently look to see/gentle/you gently look for me . & yr always reaching inside you/& yr always reaching for the cure/& yr mind will always blindside you/yet your body knows so much more/& you always think that yr sorrow/& you always feel that yr alone/& you always feel yr unwanted/& you always feel yr not known . gentle/so I can know you here/gentle now/I want to know you, to heal me .

Biog stuff? It’s always changing. Re creativity, a wise man said: ‘‘It doesn’t matter where, as long as it’s out of this world’’. This seems a good way to feel about it all ... the music should be like a drugged dream, poem, hope, prayer - probably a blues .
