Wonder

Got a message this morning
I was losing my view
Lilac melodies stuck in my memory
Coltrane plays the blues
Doves were kissing above me
Flowers sprang from the frost
I saw my face in the water
I couldn't take my eyes off
Running away
Running away
It's a wonder that I'm still around
Memory in
Memory out
Another melody, another song
That's how I got over
I woke up from my history
Nature laughed at the worrying kind
Future held like an anchor
Birds of paradise danced in my mind
Running away
Running away
It's a wonder that I'm still around
Memory in
Memory out
Another melody, another song
That's how I got over
Whatever happens now I've got my melody

Like an Idea
05:00

Every time I step,
the ground has moved again
Every time I move,
I feel further from my friends
Every time it changes,
the season is heavier and hard
Every time I walk,
it feels like a step too far
When you're near
The sun doesn't hit so hard
I learn something new
When I'm in your arms
When you're near
The spring doesn't seem so far
It's like an idea
When I'm in your arms
Every time I step,
the ground has moved again
Every time I turn,
I come to another bend
Every time I tell,
the story loses thread
Every time I leap,
I land with a length ahead
When you're near
The sun doesn't hit so hard
I learn something new
When I'm in your arms
When you're near
The spring doesn't seem so far
It's like an idea
When I'm in your arms
Every time I step,
I'm back on Escher's stairs
Every flight I walk,
there's another there
Every time I rise,
I see my double has gone down
Every time I turn,
I see that I've come back round
When you're near
The sun doesn't hit so hard
I learn something new
When I'm in your arms
When you're near
The spring doesn't seem so far
It's like an idea
When I'm in your arms

Breathe Life
04:13

I was in another world when you came to face me
In a sky blue room
An antihero was there to race me
Pull me back through
You spread yourself and took me under
And there was no greater lord
All the tongues sang together
It was a major lydian chord
All my love might
My love might breathe life
All my love might
My love might breathe life
All my love might
My love might be not enough
When I woke, the window was open
But you were gone
I could hear the chord in the distance
I didn't know which side I was on
On my left shoulder I could feel breathing
But it wasn't you
Through the window I could hear music
It was filling the room sky blue
All my love might
My love might breathe life
All my love might
My love might breathe life
All my love might
My love might be not enough

Mode
04:11

When I reach out
To the blue
There was no heart
There was no fruit
In the sum
In the cell
There was no pattern
There was no well
There was no pulse
There was no vein
For my blood
I can't find my mode
In the muscle
At the core
Where was the body
Where was the law
In the memory
In the will
There was no tonic
There was no milk
There was no pulse
There was no fruit
For my blood
I can't find my mode

Water
03:58

You think I wouldn't change for you
Whatever is below, when you look down
Worried when you can't see through
It's darker than blue, and makes a haunted sound
If I can't carry the earth
Like I ought to
I'll be your water
You think I wouldn't fail for you
Held in shallows in the low tide
And I won't kneel, it's true
I'll dive in deep and come to your side
If I can't carry the earth
Like I ought to
I'll be your water
I'm divorced from the soil

Kiss of Life
05:53
|

Time, all together
The kiss of life
Mine, and yours together
The bluest eye
The kiss of life
Fine, in the morning
Intertwined
The kiss of life
I feel a new rainbow, coming on
In the sky
This time give me some kindness
A melody lionheart or you and I
The kiss of life
I feel like a blossom
In the sun
Loss is gone
I feel like a poet
Here's my song
Here's my song
This time give me some kindness
A melody lionheart or you and I
The kiss of life

Cherub
03:59
|
|||
|
I want nothing from you
If I could I would be far
Into the dark green or the deep blue
Instead I stay where you are
Where you are
I don't even want mercy from you
I don't plan to change my ways
Going to keep my fake little cherub too
But where you are is where I'll stay
Where you are
Got my lame masculinity
And my millions of enemies who don't know anything about me
If I keep my anonymity, can I see things how I want to see
I don't have to look around me
Where you are

War of Words
02:29
|

|
What was that you heard
It was just a war of words
Then a flock of birds flew by my window in a blur
Didn't I laugh at all
You know I loved you all
Tried to give my world while my heart held good
Have I been understood?
Didn't I lend my ear
It was just a new idea
Then a shock of petals fell around me as I lay here
Didn't I laugh at all
You know I loved you all
Tried to give my world while my heart held good
Have I been understood?
