Where are you God?
I'm holing back blues, can you hear me?
Is that your voice
Through the crack in the ceiling?
Where are you God?
I'm holing back blues, can you hear me?
Is that your voice
Or is it my own I am hearing
There's a drop for you
and a drop for me
Cut my finger on a picture
I am hungry for anything
There's an open wide hole in me
My mind's got a slow disease
I'm waiting for something to come
I wanted to cry
I wanted to drown in my feelings
But nothing came out
From morning to evening
But then came the night
And under a sparkling ceiling
I felt in my eye
The drop I had dreamed of
Where?
Where you go?
You go
I don't know but I don't know nothing no more
Want to see you
Want to feel you
Want to be you
I want to feel real
I want to be human
To feel like I'm me
To feel like I used to
Where?
BL̶UE̶

Dark harbour
Water lover
See light bend together
Dark harbour
Water lover
I flow into the sea
I catch the moon
Dark harbour
Water lover
Headache weather
Light is living within us
Our Father
Blue Mother
Mandala
Dark is winning without light
... is a yolk
I'm home
That's something I wouldn't have done
Let my body go
That's something I would not

Same

It's the same
It's the same
It's the same thing
are you woke?
Hidden eyes hunt
are you woke?
Look in the mirror
keep me in check keep me alone
there are eyes that are holy
and there are moths that are gold
i'm not looking for love
but for meaningful work
there was a garden
now it's a car park
Look in the sewer
keep me in check keep me alone
in time we are nothing
it must suck being old
there's a wasp!
there's wasp in the wall
and it flew out
can you hear it?
it's inside you?
Look at mirror
nothing to learn nothing to own
I am more than gold ribbon
I am more than pure light
I’m the darkness inside
You are me wrapped in lies
Can you feel it?
It's the same thing

You didn't wake me up this time
This time, "this" "time"
And only good things can hold
I'm only good when I'm told
Then you woke me up
I am only
I am holy
I am nothing
I I I I iii I ii iiiiiiii
I am mamamama
Took a fast train
And it woke me up
Didn't know what to do
My eyes open
Body hold me
With no other
Running through
Through
You
I
You
And I'll wake you up this time
This time, "this" "time"
You think I'm in control?
I don't exist anymore
Just diamond loop spiral
Again and again it will break it is cursed
But again and again it will rise and be birthed
Glory shines in all things
Til there's nothing
But the "I am"
O burn the I
Til there's you you you
(Woke me up!)
I am only
I am holy
I am nothing
But the I am

Late Night Wine

Closing my eyes
Mind of a child
Diamonds in rhyme
Fall
I am a vibe
I am alive
I am distracted by flashing blue light
Rattata bite
Four "0" at night
Body be writhe
Writing a note for a fly
Remember that night when I died
Can you take me in?
You take me ill
You take me alive
Take me, you know!
I am the wine
I am the wife
I am the husband and i am the child
I am alight
Midas and might
I'm aloud: everything thing all of the time
I feel what i feel
I know what i know
There's heaven and bread in soul
I’m honey and bone
I don’t want to go
Can you take me in?
You take me ill
You take me alive
Take me, you know!
Can you take me in?
You take me ill
You take me alive
You take me alone
Will you take me in
You take me ill
You take me alive
There's heaven and bread in my sight
Heaven and bread in my
Heaven and bread in my
Heaven and bread in my sight
White light
Burning like a fire inside
Keep me warm and bright
My mind is like ride
Bright light all night

Love Rot

Lay
Lay down all again
Weigh
All that you own
The heaviest load
Too heavy for heaven
Be Gone
Momma never told you
You're living in a dead god's eye
What's that??!
Momma should have told you
I love you! I love you! I love you!
Say
Words rot so find God
Fall in love
Cos you are mine
I've seen the signs
Momma always told you
To keep all of your light inside
Why's that??!
Cos Momma never told you
I love you! I love you! I love you!

I'll Survive It

I’ll Survive It
I’ll be who I want
Or at least I’ll try
To see the best in others
To stop and watch the sky
I think of a world
And all of it is mine
I’ve got faith in something
It’s probably a lie
I’ll survive it
Been waiting on myself
Been waiting on the world
Been hiding in the darkness
Trying not to get hurt
Why do I feel wrong
And it seems justified?
I’m hungry in the morning
And hungry in the night
I’ll survive it
I’ll be who I want
With God I have all love inside
I’ll survive it
