Standard Timekeeping
There's a place of tranquility and pain;
Drenched in the downpour, reading the rain.
Life is darkness to the armor-less knight,
Destined to live with what's on her back
Forever guilty and all is right!
Desire-less to find another track.
Peaceful anguish is not subject to change.
The streets can be justice for the strange!
Meaningless suffering top off the night.
Why even try, there is no way back.
Into the doom, turning left nor right,
Like a freight train rumbling down the track.
Public...

You don't know me
You do not know my I
am the more and less Dark
stalks my futureness Mother
was angelic charm Father
blends in to be lost Dishonesty
promotes losers chaos Birds
move the sky over heads Khaos
mother of Nyx and Hemera Life
is measured in breaths
not days.
Why to infinity, then why?
Brotherhood of hope
and foolishness Wealth
is imagining handfuls of air Meaning
is always found in desire I
need to be held and seen Terror
stalks the night season Joy
like the sunset fills the sky Kindness ...

Existential View
Largely the troubles of this life
Burning fires of struggle and strife
In this life, there seems to be time
Between the start and finish line
Delusion feeding illusion
Everyone always dies alone
Is it music or just a tone
Dancing to the rhythm of life
Celebration of no real strife
Forever living in this time
One moment it's all on the line
Jubilation of exaltation
Realizing you're never alone
Legacy built on a milestone
Everybody is the same
But from various viewpoints
Burning fires of struggle and strife
In this life, there seems to be time
Between the start and finish line
Delusion feeding illusion
Everyone always dies alone
Is it music or just a tone
Dancing to the rhythm of life
Celebration of no real strife
Forever living in this time
One moment it's all on the line
Jubilation of exaltation
Realizing you're never alone
Legacy built on a milestone
Everybody is the same
But from various viewpoints

Hope's fires
The fires burn on the Santa Ana
It was inevitable in the night
Like a stranger in a bandanna
Bringing nature to the fight
There is no justice in the wind
Broken glass and bloody peril
Plans can break and will can bend
Chaos singing out natures carol
Uncertainty brightly riding the wind
Can you feel the future coming down
It was inevitable in the night
Like a stranger in a bandanna
Bringing nature to the fight
There is no justice in the wind
Broken glass and bloody peril
Plans can break and will can bend
Chaos singing out natures carol
Uncertainty brightly riding the wind
Can you feel the future coming down

Dance (extended cut)
Dance (extended mix)
And the dancers dance
To the music, moving together.
To you alone do I pledge
My life, my love, my sacred honor.
And the dancers dance
Clear the floor for the Bride and Groom.
And the dancers dance
This is your song,
Your choice, your partner.
Alone together (as family and friends)
Give you your moment
Then move to join in.
And the dancers dance
The musicians play to the tempo of life,
Whether the music is soothing to sweep you along
Or bone jarring chaos that rocks...
And the dancers dance
To the music, moving together.
To you alone do I pledge
My life, my love, my sacred honor.
And the dancers dance
Clear the floor for the Bride and Groom.
And the dancers dance
This is your song,
Your choice, your partner.
Alone together (as family and friends)

Then move to join in.

Whether the music is soothing to sweep you along
Or bone jarring chaos that rocks...

Beautiful
Beautiful
I know how you feel and see who you are.
You say to get real and that I don't understand,
But I do.
I see you
You're excited, in love, bored and afraid.
When push comes to shove, you think you may fade.
You love to be loved but feel unworthy;
Like life is playing a joke;
Too good to leave,
But too good to believe.
Once you step over the line.
You will get swept into another time.
Afraid to overstep who you can become.
I know how you feel
...

You say to get real and that I don't understand,
But I do.
I see you
You're excited, in love, bored and afraid.
When push comes to shove, you think you may fade.
You love to be loved but feel unworthy;
Like life is playing a joke;
Too good to leave,
But too good to believe.
Once you step over the line.
You will get swept into another time.
Afraid to overstep who you can become.
I know how you feel

Nuthin'
Nuthin'
Largely lost in lethargy
And able to act accordingly
Every energy eviscerating efficiency
Buying bleeding barnyard Barbary
Selling strings soaked in sophistry
living life like literal lunacy
candidly creating chaos casually
Making mountains move maliciously
fleeing fearless fiends for fantasy
proposing purpose pushed to periphery
every edifice eroding endlessly
End

Though my love's Gone
Though my lover's gone
When these frames are but dust or ash in the wind,
Our love will keep working right to the end.
Our love was everything,
An unseen force
Holding our universe together.
In our love we were stronger than the tide
Fear had no hold with you by my side
You were always there:
To pick me up
To dust me off
To give me courage
To make me feel alive
Our love was a primal source:
Older than mountains,
More durable than rocks,
More inviting than
The fragile smile of a kiss. ...

Sometimes
Sometimes]
In the dead of night, when I'm all alone
Reality seems squishy, the day's strife is done.
Not quite awake and not quite asleep
I don't know if the nightmare is over
Or about to begin
Let me try this again....
In the night season, when I'm all alone
Reality blurs the sounds of the night.
It's just not right, the body is weary
but the mind will not unload.
Again....
I'm all alone chilled to the bone
Alone, alone, reach for the phone
No one to call, no one at all, fall
I'd fall...
In the dead of night, when I'm all alone
Reality seems squishy, the day's strife is done.
Not quite awake and not quite asleep
I don't know if the nightmare is over
Or about to begin
Let me try this again....
In the night season, when I'm all alone
Reality blurs the sounds of the night.
It's just not right, the body is weary
but the mind will not unload.
Again....
I'm all alone chilled to the bone
Alone, alone, reach for the phone
No one to call, no one at all, fall
I'd fall...

Final countdown
Killing field in party town nothing sacred burn it down
Loot the stores, burn the cop cars innocence lost in this town
Drug wars spill in off the street into a little girls sleep
Wars are fought and mothers weep for the sons poured out too cheap
Planes and cars and murder vests to fill the quotas of death
Theft and murder rule the streets that pay the price of our meth
Children die before they are born to parents having fun
Wealthy rapist, name over the door, caught in the long run
Broken promises, lies and deceit it's just...
Loot the stores, burn the cop cars innocence lost in this town
Drug wars spill in off the street into a little girls sleep
Wars are fought and mothers weep for the sons poured out too cheap
Planes and cars and murder vests to fill the quotas of death
Theft and murder rule the streets that pay the price of our meth
Children die before they are born to parents having fun
Wealthy rapist, name over the door, caught in the long run
Broken promises, lies and deceit it's just...

Step out
Arise sleeper and take up your plow.
Prepare your harnesses and oil your tack.
The ground has had its sabbath rest and is become disquieted.
Remove the rocks and rubble, burn the weeds and stubble.
Strike the fallow ground and don't relent.
Dig in and rip complacency away.
From sunrise until darkness covers the land.
The trumpet speaks, the time is right,
The earth rumbles in anticipation.
The sowers are holding the seed
waiting, watching, watching, hoping for broken ground.
The husbandmen and shepherds bounce from...
Prepare your harnesses and oil your tack.
The ground has had its sabbath rest and is become disquieted.
Remove the rocks and rubble, burn the weeds and stubble.
Strike the fallow ground and don't relent.
Dig in and rip complacency away.
From sunrise until darkness covers the land.
The trumpet speaks, the time is right,
The earth rumbles in anticipation.
The sowers are holding the seed
waiting, watching, watching, hoping for broken ground.
The husbandmen and shepherds bounce from...

Ethereal
Ethereal
I like to make lists; Horses, titanium, ethereal
People don't understand.
I don't blame them they are just limited
They tell me there are more bacterium
In and around a person than human cells.
It makes sense in a way,
I think it is the smell.
I like to count sheep; ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
People don't understand.
Don't blame me it's just the medicine.
Maybe our bacterium do more good
Than we do, during the time of sleeping.
Doesn't matter either way,
And bacteria can't smell.
