Reset
What am I doing here?
Nothing really seems to make much sense
How have I found my soul
Living in such ignorance?
Is there anything I can do?
Is there anything I can say?
Is there anything I can do?
To hit reset on
This game I'm playing
(So-called "reality"
It’s pure insanity)
What is this world I’m in?
My God, what’s happening?
What is this world I’m in?
Tell me what is happening
In this existence
Tell me, what is happening?
Is there anything I can...
Nothing really seems to make much sense
How have I found my soul
Living in such ignorance?
Is there anything I can do?
Is there anything I can say?
Is there anything I can do?
To hit reset on
This game I'm playing
(So-called "reality"
It’s pure insanity)
What is this world I’m in?
My God, what’s happening?
What is this world I’m in?
Tell me what is happening
In this existence
Tell me, what is happening?
Is there anything I can...

Nothing to Give
I’ve got "nothing" to give and it’s all for you
It’s the absolute least that I could do
I didn’t wrap it; I hope you don’t mind
I’ve got no plans, but I couldn’t find the time
I've "nowhere" to be, but I’d better go
Should've taken my leave, a long time ago
Oh, don't mind me; don't act like you care
I'll just pack up my air, and head back to "nowhere"
But I leave you with "nothing;" you’d do the same for me, too
It’s truly all that I could possibly do
I didn’t wrap it; it’s already confined
In the deepest recesses of your...
It’s the absolute least that I could do
I didn’t wrap it; I hope you don’t mind
I’ve got no plans, but I couldn’t find the time
I've "nowhere" to be, but I’d better go
Should've taken my leave, a long time ago
Oh, don't mind me; don't act like you care
I'll just pack up my air, and head back to "nowhere"
But I leave you with "nothing;" you’d do the same for me, too

In the deepest recesses of your...

My Friend
My friend,
You’ve got a long way to go
But you should know
You don’t have to walk this road alone
You don’t have to go it all on your own
I’ll be with you to the end
My friend,
You've got a life left to live
Don’t let yourself lose yourself
You’ve got so much left to give
Oh, if only you knew
You’re worth so much more than you’ll ever know
Just know that much, it is true
And that I’m right here by your side
So don’t...
Run...
Don’t...
Hide your love
Away from the world
No,...
You’ve got a long way to go
But you should know
You don’t have to walk this road alone
You don’t have to go it all on your own
I’ll be with you to the end
My friend,
You've got a life left to live
Don’t let yourself lose yourself
You’ve got so much left to give
Oh, if only you knew
You’re worth so much more than you’ll ever know
Just know that much, it is true
And that I’m right here by your side
So don’t...
Run...
Don’t...
Hide your love
Away from the world
No,...

The Truth Lies Within
Discover the Truth for yourself
Forget everything you've been told
Believe not a thing that you've heard
Believe me,
I've told you
how to know
what is True
Forget what
you've read,
you already do
Forget everything you've been told
Believe not a thing that you've heard
Believe me,
I've told you
how to know
what is True
Forget what
you've read,
you already do

Here (Already)
Feels like I'm always in a rush
To be somewhere else
But, what for, what for, what for?
Always in a hurry to turn right around
And run out the door
But, where am I headed?
When I'm here already
Oh, where am I trying to go
When I'm only ever here already (here already)
It's like I'm running in circles
But, I'm always going to be the
Bullseye, bullseye, bullseye
Though the world don't revolve around me
No, I know without you, there'd be no I
So, where are we going now?
When we're here already (here...
To be somewhere else
But, what for, what for, what for?
Always in a hurry to turn right around
And run out the door
But, where am I headed?
When I'm here already
Oh, where am I trying to go
When I'm only ever here already (here already)
It's like I'm running in circles
But, I'm always going to be the
Bullseye, bullseye, bullseye
Though the world don't revolve around me
No, I know without you, there'd be no I
So, where are we going now?
When we're here already (here...

You and me
We can be it all, and yet we're all that we can be
Be anything we want, and still we'll only ever be
You and me
Wherever You go, it is there that I'll be found
From now, unto the end of time
I'll be dancing all around
Your Holy ground
You conceive it all, and yet I'm all that You can see
You permeate through everything, but'll only ever breathe
Through You and me
Alone, we're nothing
But, Together We're THE ALL
Fractured individuals
Brought Together, We are...
Be anything we want, and still we'll only ever be
You and me
Wherever You go, it is there that I'll be found
From now, unto the end of time
I'll be dancing all around
Your Holy ground
You conceive it all, and yet I'm all that You can see
You permeate through everything, but'll only ever breathe
Through You and me
Alone, we're nothing
But, Together We're THE ALL
Fractured individuals
Brought Together, We are...

Brace Yourself (A Journey in Automatic Writing)
Brace yourself for impact,
Soon we'll be crashing,
Into something previously unforeseen
But, it's okay,
If you keep your wits about you,
It's just to test your latent abilities
For, they will arise,
From the depths of the mind
When the time does arrive
To reveal your potential
So, brace for impact
And know just up ahead,
You will know why we fell to this world
And as a matter of fact,
There are no facts at all
When we write our own rules,
By which we all must follow
...
Soon we'll be crashing,

To reveal your potential
So, brace for impact
And know just up ahead,
You will know why we fell to this world
And as a matter of fact,

Mixed Emotions
Rough audio cut in "Author's Note," should anyone care to listen 🙈 *
Dreams of things that split the night
All your worries, all your... trite expressions
But, you are something more, in spite
Of petty ways... mindless obsessions
I see you
Do you see you, too?
When you look into the sky
I see you
Do you see me, too?
When you close your eyes?
Dreams of things that lit the night
Endless hope and mis... direction
They fly around you like a kite
All tangled up... in...
Dreams of things that split the night
All your worries, all your... trite expressions
But, you are something more, in spite
Of petty ways... mindless obsessions
I see you
Do you see you, too?
When you look into the sky
I see you
Do you see me, too?
When you close your eyes?
Dreams of things that lit the night
Endless hope and mis... direction
They fly around you like a kite
All tangled up... in...

Falling (Learning to Fly)
It was never my intention to break your heart
But, from the start, I've been falling apart
I’m sorry to say, that I’m just a lost soul
But, I need you to know,
Oh, how I love you sooooo
Aaaaaaooooohhhhhhhh
But, can’t ya see, we’re falling down?
But, that we’re still falling
Means we’re still up in the sky
Soooooooooooooooooo,
Before we hit the ground
If we’d have a little hope
Maybe we’ll learn to fly
It was never my desire to bring you down
But, you fell for a king with a broken crown ...
But, from the start, I've been falling apart
I’m sorry to say, that I’m just a lost soul
But, I need you to know,
Oh, how I love you sooooo
Aaaaaaooooohhhhhhhh
But, can’t ya see, we’re falling down?
But, that we’re still falling
Means we’re still up in the sky
Soooooooooooooooooo,
Before we hit the ground
If we’d have a little hope
Maybe we’ll learn to fly
It was never my desire to bring you down
But, you fell for a king with a broken crown ...

Solipsism
Why’re you denying the Source of ALL creation?
What’re you trying to prove in your deviation?
Oh, can’t you see that there's obviously so much more?
Than the one you call "me," could ever dream on its own
All on your own
Tell me, what’ve you got against the God of ALL salvation?
Whether or not He is a “he” is beside the point…
Are we not dying to find some sort of sense of alleviation?
From all the world’s pain
To start over again
To be given another chance
Oh, who is telling you that you are ALL THAT IS? ...

Kismet
Come and climb aboard this sidereal express
It's moving ever toward your destiny (your destiny, your)
Scaling up the path, getting closer and closer to our true home
Everything that's happening is history (it's history)
And soon you’ll awaken from your slumber
To find that we are all but ONE in number
So, come and climb aboard your destiny (your destiny, your)
Come and climb aboard your destiny (your destiny)
Let us enter into a new dimension
Show the soul a whole new plane
In time,...
It's moving ever toward your destiny (your destiny, your)
Scaling up the path, getting closer and closer to our true home

So, come and climb aboard your destiny (your destiny, your)

Show the soul a whole new plane

Consciousness Can't Die
There’s never an end end end
Where there’s never a beginning
You and I, my friend friend friend
Have we not always jus’ been living-la-living-la-living-la-la-la
Whoa whoa whoa
Oh, all of these identities are not who we are
They’re an archetypal being,
Always changing,
Our molecules are... rearranging
But Consciousness can’t die die die
And Truth can know no lie lie lie
Life cannot know death death death
And Consciousness can’t die, ee-I, ee-I, ee-I
No, Consciousness can’t die….
There’s no real place...
Where there’s never a beginning
You and I, my friend friend friend
Have we not always jus’ been living-la-living-la-living-la-la-la
Whoa whoa whoa
Oh, all of these identities are not who we are
They’re an archetypal being,
Always changing,
Our molecules are... rearranging
But Consciousness can’t die die die
And Truth can know no lie lie lie
Life cannot know death death death
And Consciousness can’t die, ee-I, ee-I, ee-I
No, Consciousness can’t die….
There’s no real place...
