Maelstrom
04:32
|
|||
|
A maelstrom of insecurities,
like dominoes they fall and they're amplified,
silence of the decision,
I love you but oh to love with precision
I tried to walk on water
left like a lamb for the slaughter
silence of the decision
I love you but oh to love with precision
left behind oh forsaken
can I ask you the price for a little piece of heaven
left behind
left behind
left behind

In love with life
03:45

I’m in love with life, though she beats me all the time, I always come back for more, I try to make her mine,
I’m in love with life, though she beats me all the time, I always come back for more, I try to make her mine,
And if poets cry tears, of music in the air, I will cry with them, as experience twists and bends, paper folds in my life, creases in my skin, I don’t know where I’m going, oh where, I am going, I am going,
‘Cause I’m in love with life, though she beats me all the time, I always come back for more, I try to make her mine,
Yeah I’m in love with life, though she beats me all the time, I always come back for more, I try to make her mine,
Yeah I’m in love with life, though she beats me all the time, I always come back for more, I try to make her mine

Mute Voice
03:17
|
|||
|
Mute voice, sounds across the room, you wouldn’t believe, the struggling silence ensued,
Perfumed air, flowered hair, enrapturing, slave to another soul,
And I’m still waiting, for the day that you will begin, to look my way,
I’m still waiting, for the day that you will begin, to look my way,
Ghostly face, fades away, stealing through the night, shadow on my mind,
Wastin’ time, the devil’s lie, you wouldn’t believe, the meaning of this life,
And I’m still waiting, for the day that you will begin, to look my way,
I’m still waiting, for the day that you will begin, to look my way,
I’m waiting, for the day that you will begin to look my way,
I’m waiting, for the day that you will begin to look my way.

Homeland

And the road seemed to twist and turn, yeah,
And the sky was all charcoal burned, yeah,
And the cars were all over-turned, yeah,
And the road was all twists and turns, yeah,
And the sky was all charcoal burned, yeah,
And the cars were all over-turned, yeah,
Oh yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah,
I made some words that turned to stone, yeah,
I put them into a sugar cone, yeah,
Fed them to a boy in my homeland,
He grew sick now I’m all alone, yeah,
Fed ‘em to a boy in my homeland,
He grew sick now I’m all alone, yeah,
Oh yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

Mother Wind

|
Waiting, and watching, the wind, begin to sing
I am, tripping, feeling, the song, she sings
Across the sea we shall achieve so deeply
I am you as you are me so deeply
I could love you so deeply
I could love you so deeply
Do you, sleepwalk?
In dreams, in dreams I talk

Beyond Words
03:10
|
|||
|
There are some things in this world that go, beyond words,
I have seen some things in this world that go, beyond words,
And it’s so deep, and it makes so much sense, and it feels so deep, and it makes so much sense
I met my father after a year and it goes, beyond words,
I was in my lover’s arms and it goes, beyond words

Dayfall
05:12
|

|
I dined with a friend on a dreary day, he took the bill but I was the one who paid,
On the way home we had to pass a train, I saw his eyes go blank, I saw the pain,
And I screamed STOP but he wouldn’t listen, he was dead inside, he wasn’t even alive
This didn’t happened to me, I was in disbelief,
This couldn’t of happened to me, I cried in relief,
And I’d have screamed STOP just a little bit sooner, he might still be alive, he might not have died
I looked down to look at my dead friend, I looked down and saw my self staring back,
I was dead and lying on the track,
And if I’d have screamed STOP, just a little bit sooner, I might still be alive, I might not have died
I felt half of myself, grow hollow inside, I felt half of myself, fade and die,
And I’d have screamed STOP I might’ve listened, I might still be alive, I might not have died
I left home later that night, without myself

no worries

No worries my friend, it’ll right itself in the end, and if not we’ll just pretend,
It’ll right itself in the end,
I heard a trippy bird, on the tried and true trail,
Doin’ shots of O.J. in the basement where I live,
But no worries my friend it’ll right itself in the end, and if not we’ll just pretend,
It’ll right itself in the end,
Day in day out, I tell myself it’s gonna change,
Day in day out, I tell myself it’s gonna stay the same,
Strange,
No worries my friend, it’ll right itself in the end, and if not we’ll just pretend,
It’ll right itself in the end

Phineas Gauge Thunder Bay, Ontario
........................ A Little something about Phineas
Gauge..............................
Phineas Gauge began: as one man’s creative endeavour, a pseudonym, a gestalt of ideals within a vision, an imagination; like an albino octopus sprouting new arms, still growing ever stronger, more diverse.
