Lost In A Dream
04:27
|

When I did awake this morning
Time kept moving without warning
Past and present now have no meaning
Life and love were something that were oh so fleeting
I waited until these thoughts passed
But sometimes they just seem to last
Time and space now have no relation
There is no way to awaken
Clouding all my thoughts throughout the day
Confusing me
Collapsing into my deepest fears
Of all I see
I don’t want to be
Hung up on a dream
Can you wake me
I’m lost in a dream
Days they seem to be lost to visions
Of worlds in televisions
Where can I find some meaning
Is there something that’s worth believing
Clouding all my thoughts throughout the day
Confusing me
Collapsing into my deepest fears
Of all I see
I don’t want to be
Hung up on a dream
Can you wake me
I’m lost in a dream
I waited until these thoughts passed
But sometimes they just seem to last
I don’t want to be
Lost in a dream
Can you wake me
I’m lost in a dream

The Spark
03:30
|

Holding out for something special
To come around
Like we all did in the old days
Something profound
Where is the spark
That you used to find?
You’re lost in the dark
And nothing was found
All the thoughts that you’ve been having
Won’t seem to pass
Now you’re putting pen to paper
With a half-empty glass
Where is the spark
That you used to find?
You’re lost in the dark
And nothing was found
All the pain that you held onto
Hoping it would somehow amuse
Leaving out all the fine details
Obscuring the truth
Praying that you’ll find direction
Hoping you’ll have much more to say
Leaving all your cards on the table for a rainy day
Where is the spark?

Going Underground
03:20
|
|||
I found a reason
Something to believe
For once in my life I could finally feel free
From all the things that would keep us kids down
Learned a few chords and a new sound
Underground is where I’m gonna be
Far from their society
Just watch I’m going underground
The Who ‘Live at Leeds’ played on my stereo
I slipped the Ox back to mono
Singing about things that we'd understand
It’s all about Mary Anne with the sh-sh-shaky hands
Underground is where I’m gonna be
Far from their society
Just watch I’m going underground
We never did conform or bend down to their norms
We just stayed away and underground
Underground is where I’m gonna be
Far from their society
Just watch I’m going underground
We’ll be happy underground
We’ll be happy underground

History Repeating
03:38

History repeating
Is there nothing that we learned
From the heartbreak
And the graves that we unearthed
Is there healing
Can we start to understand
All the losses
All the pain that’s passed to kin
What has happened
What is wrong and what is right
So hard to imagine
But we cannot end the fight
Are you receiving
Can you see through shuttered eyes
All the suffering
In the name of godly lies
What has happened
What is wrong and what is right
So hard to imagine
But we cannot end the fight
Look inside (what will we find there)
Recognize this feeling
Look around (all this suffering)
It’s history repeating
History repeating (no more, no more)...

Dovelikes eyes chasing smiles
Awaken from a dark and golden dreamworld
Casting shadows far and wide
Stirring petals of the newborn flowers
No one moves, no one speaks
While the Gods quietly weep
See the dance of light at play
Clearing out the deepest of gray mornings
Deliverance, light, and dawn
The doves sing a morning song for no one
No one moves, no one speaks
While the Gods quietly weep
Breaking dawn into day
See how innocence fades away
Drift along
Hear new vibrations
Touch the ground
Feel the new sound
I am the light
I am the ego
I am the source of all that you think you know (know that we know nothing)
I am a god
I am the center
I am the cause and effect throughout your life (help me live forever)
Staring at me
Speaking for me
Wanting to be free
I be the spark
You be the lighter
Igniting fires after dark
I bring the floods
Go where you want to
Give where you care to take as much
Staring at me
Speaking for me
Wanting to be free
The day’s end has finally come for me (finally come for me)
Pride makes place for wisdom that’s not for me (wisdom, that’s not for me)
Golden tridents shimmer so softly (simmer so softly)
A distant temple’s bells they sing for me (calling me gently)

Pilgrimage

Pilgrimage
Hear the ocean wash in
Taste the salty sea air
See the clouds
Slowly come float in
Hear the thunder begin
This for me
That for you
Is there nothing else that we can do
I see life as it is
And as it will be
Pilgrimage
On the edge
Of the deep blue sea
I see in me
This for me
That for you
Is there nothing else that we can do
I see life as it is
And as it will be
Pilgrimage

On Our Own
03:36
|
|||
Lost in all the memories we’re missing
All the places that we’ve never been
Feels like years since we left the country
For India, Bali, or Berlin
Looking back on the days since I met you
Feels so far but so very clear
Army boots and a torn up blue sweater
Playing games like we were just kids
On our own and I don’t mind
At least I’m here with you
On our own
By our design
There’s nowhere else I’d want to hide
Dreaming of all the days when we’re older
When life is slow and our hair are all gray
Moving on through this big world together
Loving life and all that we have made
On our own and I don’t mind
At least I’m here with you
On our own
By our design
There’s nowhere else I’d want to hide
But there was a time
When I said I didn’t need you
Babe, that was my pride obscuring the lines
On our own and I don’t mind
At least I’m here with you
On our own
By our design
There’s nowhere else I’d want to hide
It’s our design

Another Year Gone
01:44
|

Another year gone and I’m still floating
Another year gone and I’ve been thinking
Of all the lovers, saints, and sinners who feel like I do
And all the prophets who lined their pockets and shoes
Another year gone and I’m still floating
Another year gone and I’ve been dreaming
And year gone
And year gone
And year gone (I’ll just keep floating with you)
