You should pave the way To some place, ten thousand miles away Where I have never been before And will never see again But it feels like coming home An overdose in spirit But heavily lacking in heart I had a fleeting hope, of something lasting more than a while The road was too winding It’s hard to breathe under water It’s quite hard to breathe at all We need to change direction And restore lost wholeness Falling, time and again Treading water at the deep end In this kingdom of dysfunction Things doesn’t feel like home No, I’m never coming home, again It’s hard to breathe under water It’s quite hard to breathe at all We need to change direction And restore lost wholeness

Idlewild 03:34
I tend to think it’s not the answers but the questions that stay the same Where between my routines and imagination to put the blame Wiggle the mastic keeping order where not due Gush through fences into other views Outgrow espaliers and wind out over rooftops Sloth is: not hating whatever pulls ones strings I wonder how many thoughts from yesterday That I think again today I wonder, taken as is it, if memory is needed this way Rooting is stagnation Rooting is stagnation I'll ask you: where's the adventure in being settled, and you'll say: things don't happen (by) themselves You'll say: love, we will be more than habit we will never be moving sideways I'll say: love, the past is the past and we won't ever stop chasing, death away
3.
There is a sphere at the end of the world where all our dreams are brought to die A whirlwind of all the words, and all excuses that should never have been left unspoken If there is safety in numbers, there is triumph in being torn apart Only love and death can change all things, and destroy us all – they will find a way Show me the key to what lights the stars and I’ll become a lion longing for the sun Aiming miles above the shallow trenches of all our hopeless attempts First when you are free of hope, you can be free of everything Only love and death will change all things, and redeem us all – they shall find a way Haunted by past mistakes, looking for the easy way out While every passing moment is a chance to turn it all around

The New Year 02:45
Everytime you come around It pushes in as it always does And what have I left behind? Nothing with sharp contoures Nor without a buzz around Want to, know how, will do, know how, will do, want to, will do, want to, know how And I, want to, know how, will do, know how, will do, want to, will do, want to, know how Anytime you come around It is a mixture, but its nothing but fair Since my desire, hope and fear Is that it has passed as I deserved And it will pass as I deserve Want to, know how, will do, know how, will do, want to, will do, want to, know how And I, want to, know how, will do, know how, will do, want to, will do, want to, know how

Do you recall, when you remembered how many times you’d loved Having played way too many pieces in an all too serious game Now every moment lasts a lifetime Like a myriad of pointless little stories telling of how we all are waiting, for a greater sleep that never comes Life has become a relentless hiding from neighbours, the past, and you Trying to avoid those desperate eyes, that with impatient brushes paint our lives We are drifting, like pastime even as the sun grows dim When the spirit wanes, new forms will appear When the spirit wanes, so goes the memories, of yesteryear
6.
There’s a cold hand on a warm chest with a cold heart within You know that nothing last but still hold on, to plant paper flowers in the dirt Christ should know the lengths that I went but hollow stones can’t sink And they fly no better than a bird of clay, that spreads its broken wings It’s all too late now the sun has drowned and the singing has begun I’m none to wither with and if I close my eyes will it all just go away
7.
Maybe most of us have become automated Maybe our pattern is chasing its own tail The doors we thought opened up the straightest path is closed At the applied level we already know what goes Maybe there is, some other way, in which I, can change the frame, search and find, a way around, what’s perceived, determines where we'll get In an open place, in an empathic view with a different set of words, of questions We can get to touch the ground beneath where the propensity is not already in place Behind the front line, behind trenches, what is perceived, determines where we'll get, beyond automaticity, to be heard is a prerequisite Behind the front line, behind trenches, what is perceived, determines where we'll get, beyond automaticity, and we’ll get the response we evoke
