Lyrics:
five minutes till midnight
another year meandering onward, forward, drawing near
a silhouette of a web, dangling on an easel, doused in charcoal, black gritty fingertips
See the cat? See the cradle? as he watched the waterfall, on the cantilevered terrace, oh
See the cat? See the cradle? won’t you dance with me, we all fall anyway, eventually
in the morning when we wake
we find the world can have no mistake
and ideas of right and wrong
are training wheels that just do not belong
five minutes till midnight
another day meandering onward, forward, drawing near
Oh mona wont you stay with me beneath the purple sky at night
during the day, we can say, everything will change
during the day, we can say, suddenly everything will change
in the morning when we wake
we find the world can have no mistake
and ideas of right and wrong
are training wheels that just do not belong

When The Sun Came

lyrics: When the Sun Came
in the morning before the sun came
the water fell from the sky
a four hundred year old man toiled with his hands
the birth of children rejuvenates
the world for which the creator hates
Genesis one through forty-three never happened to me
at noon when the sun is center stage
and the chosen knew their fates
there was Mark saying to his men, ‘follow me to the end’
from all who sleep in dust
only some shall wake, the chosen ones
thats what Daniel one through seven told, but I am not sold
its to late to stop it now, a superstition
Its a comfort to the soul, an emotional elision
for the loyal who have faith, an intense derision
at evening, when the sun wanes from the sky
a man’s tear to be wiped from their eye
seven trumpet signs the end of time, these are not plans of mine
the book of life, the lake of fire
a new heaven and earth we all aspire
what the white throne had to say, was no revelation anyway
at night when the moon sails through the sky
we all feel we need to know why
like a four hundred year old man, we all toil with out hands

Lyrics: A Letter From Kalidas of the Aghoris
you said I’d never grow old
but I do
the wrinkles on my face
will get a hold of you too
you said I’d never be mad
but I am
the tension in my neck
now I just don’t give a damn
I’m looking for a piece of mind
to help me find my way or simply unwind
you said I’d never be sad
but I will
the furrow in my brow
has found a soul to kill
I’m looking for a piece of mind
to help me find my way or simply unwind
in the morning when I rise
I see a tear in evening’s eyes
as she watches daylight as it dies
you said I’d never feel pain
but I can
the sorrow in my heart
takes me back to where I began
you said I’d never lose faith
but I did
my mind is wandering around
to thoughts that once were hid
I’m looking for a piece of mind
to help me find my way or simply unwind
I’m looking for a piece of mind
to help me understand why men are blind

Lyrics: Dreaming Overseas
It’s early spring and we are
helplessly we are tugged along on jet plane
It’s early spring and we are
above the sea, our hopes and dreams
of finding the whole world as big as we hoped it seemed
I’m dreaming overseas, through an airplane window
I’m dreaming overseas with a passport in my hand
I’m dreaming overseas
It’s early spring and we are finding from a vantage point
the east coast is west from here
It’s early spring and we are
above the sea, our hopes and dreams
of finding the whole world as big as we hoped it seemed
You will never find me because I’m lost in an oversea city
in the alleyways with a tourist map
that will never tell you where I’m at
I hear there are no laws
no famine, police or police dogs, no one begging for money
I hear there’s no cancer because people drink dears blood
there’s no fear or anger, everyones happy all the time
I’m dreaming overseas, through an airplane window
I’m dreaming overseas with a passport in my hand
I’m dreaming overseas

Lyrics: Strings
I noticed the fall when I was falling
I fell faster than the leaves
but came to land much softer
beside these weak and falling leaves
you feel like strings
beneath my fingers, in my hand
you feel like strings
beneath my fingers, in my hands
in my hands, in my hands
ticks of time race my mind
the distance between them grows softer than I can even see
you can tell by the hands on the clock
they are moving slower, gradually, even more than I can see
even the leaves are taking their time, they follow me
even the sun ignores their plea
Just like the leaves, just like the sun
they follow me, even they obey decree
Even the sun falls this time of year
I noticed the sun when I was sleeping
through naked branches was its tone
the morning of the winter
the warmest winter I have ever known

Lyrics:
You may be the one for me
but how would I know?
I’m deaf when trumpets blow
only in july do I love snow
and when I smoke, I get low
how would I know?
You may be the one for me
but how would i be aware?
I curse when I say prayer
only in hope I find despair
oh, and pennies make me feel like a millionaire
how would I know?
