*I See*
I think I'll close my eyes and wait as the world goes by. Won't see the same old thing it's out there everywhere. The thousand wishes I have had in my life come true. After they are gone I say, "what did I do that for?" I see I see I see. This world going in circles around all around me. I'll end up mad before life is through with me. Guilty old me. I think I'll pay my dues and drive real fast to stand in line. Then I'll wrack my brains to find some chaos. As the image forms I'll let it swallow up my mind. Time will pass I'll ask myself "This is a joke, right?" Thinking, thinking thoughtless but it sometimes seems. Think too much, too hard and it confuses me. Rectify myself to all the things I thought were real or I'll lock the bedroom door and simply stay at
*Sister*
When I need a place to get away, When I need a place to hide, That place just seems oh so far away, Couldn't get there if I tried. Me and a young girl chasing mosquitoes, Rolling down them grassy hills. Put up a sign that said "No Vacancy", Forget the world let time stand still I take a train sister, a bus a brooking down Cheavy, or a plane. I’d walk my sister just to see you there, Just to see you again. If I could think back and see this thing clearly, If I could just remember when. Of all the things I hold so dear to me, I miss the people we were then. And it seems that you were always there. Like no one else you stood by me. When you picked me up and cleaned me off, Saw what not one else could see.
*Pete Beat*
As far as I can see. Walking, walking, walking, away from me. And for all I know. Demeanor gives it all away. Talking, talking, right over me. And for all I know. Loosing it, getting older. Stay the same yet older. You don't get it like I do I heard that, yeah that's what you said. Loosing it getting older. Please take me far away. I don’t know what to do. I don't know where to go anymore best you just walk on by. Feeling strange these days it true, creeping up from behind but let’s just not jump off the bridge. Best you just walk on by. Loosing it, it’s gotten cold outside. I’m heading back you know I said goodnight. You don’t get it like I do I heard that yeah that’s what you said losing it getting older. It’ll find me…
*He's Stayin*
Talk in sign, say something new Talk in circles, nothing better to do Message camouflage - same dead end Please say just what he’s saying He ain’t my friend. Found him but in a world that’s not his own A world he’d hidden pretty well Kicked up some stones and pulled some earth He’s stayin….He’s stayin there From a pile of modeling clay, he will build Fasnioned in the likeness, of himself Message camoflage same dead end Please say just what he’s saying He ain’t my friend. Ready made and personas taken in He got it the quick and easy way As insidious as before - he’s stayin… Love is love is not his own
*Clear Blue Water*
Cast OUT on clear blue water Saw nothing out there at all at all Picture a scene across to the other side Saw nothing out there at all Pack up some scant posessions For this trip you’ll take to find what’s right in front of you So you’ll need some help on well goodluck good bye… Take a look around you can’t you see walls are closing in "I can’t breathe" you say So it goes. So far like taking flight Near perfect, it feels like Spoon fed, It’s like bliss. It’s waning in and out and it takes the air out like a centrifuge
*Never Tell*
Well I stepped off the train just the other day I swore that I saw you A younger man, a stronger man, but certainly the man That you were at one time. He stepped out of the station and into the sun Thought that for sure He would be meeting someone he would be meeting someone Possibly the girl that he’d marry. I thought at the time that I’d warn him Of all that was to come Since he’d commit the damage he’d do And all along he was out on Didn’t do it but I wanted to It’s time once again to revive some old some new If you don’t mind that it’s all the same I’ll never tell you. If seem to to fade in, if you seem to fade out Take no mind, I don’t mind.
