Candelabra

I tried hard to keep threads together
I've even tried to shape others weather
I can only ask you to come on over
you can't force finding of four leaf clover
so let bees bumble
and birds fly
and mountains crumble
and wants die
cause if you want it now and you can't have it now
and all that's on your mind again
is how you're gonna get it when
get it when, get it when, at all...?
I tried hard to keep threads together
I've even tried to shape others weather
I can only ask you to come on over
you can't force finding of four leaf clover
so let bees bumble
and birds fly
mountains crumble
and wants die
now I'm looking for some rhythm now
I am looking for some god
I looking for some reason now
and my prayers they started to bud
looking now for everything
looking in the night
there was candelabra everywhere
in the candelabra light.....
Heal me, I said heal me
I said heal me, again again again
why don't you?
Heal me, I said heal me
oh heal me, the need, the need
the need, the need
In the candelabra light....

narrow path
04:30
|
|||
Walk through the fire, gowned in barbed wire
In sight is the spire, on a bridge of desire
Bathed in the wonder of blessings from the up above, tasting wine while out at sea, knowing that they can't see me as the way I really am at first to others then to them, the doubt of everybody else just fuels me and pulls me off the shelf
Still in fire hands on rope, blindly climbing can they cope? At the top is an abyss cursed and blessed forever kissed
Conscience can be best friend showing me there are no ends, making puzzle pieces purr, as if now there is no cure
Time tick moon controls the tide, soul in me it likes to hide, visions growing hazy then glow as sun from tired day begins...
Fallen in the narrow path, gliding through the lonesome wrath, focus thin but as wide as can be, behind the eyes of someone at sea
Bathed in the wonder of blessings from the up above, tasting wine while out at sea, knowing that they can't see me as the way I really am at first to others then to them, the doubt of everybody else just fuels me and pulls me off the shelf
There is beauty in not knowing just where it is that we are going .....

die without dying
05:48
|
|||
This life is harder than I thought
Sometimes I want to cash in every chip I've bought
They say you can be anything you want
I feel I'm at the tail end if the hunt
And some days I don't even want to live
And some days I've nothing left to give
And some days I find are much to trying
I just want to die but without dying
Without dying...
I didn't know I'd still be fighting for dreams
Decades later I'm still beginning it seems
I feel like old growth in a forrest of little trees
The season is gorgeous, it's the turning of leaves
But I won't hurt myself cause I want to hug my mother
And if I did that I couldn't look in the eyes of my father
I feel so much love from my friends and sisters and brothers
There is so much left in life to discover
To discover....
At this moment I am weak I know
Gotta let my old self go
Rebirth it is work
Rebirth it is work
I have to die without dying.........

Sunset Savior
05:21
|
|||
A skyward glance was all it took
I raise my head to have a look
the blues and pinks of mother nature
The essence of a sunset savior
silhouette is a heaven dancing
silhouette against the sky
two of us casting shadows
under this moonlight
A turning point in this long day
as the mystery works it's way
the in betweens of lights moments end
a darkness comes both foe and friend
silhouette is a heaven dancing
silhouette against the sky
two of us casting shadows
under this moonlight
The hues of blues are darkening now
as tonight I make my vow
to grasp the tails and give a try
just as the colors slip on by
silhouette is a heaven dancing
silhouette against the sky
two of us casting shadows
dance under moonlight
Darkened colors slowly burn
as the world enjoys it turn
to bring an end to this long day
as the mystery works its way
and as it turns it carries on
and brings with it a morning dawn
sunset saviors are never the same
missing one I'll hang my head in shame
Missing one
I hang my head in shame

Garden of Ease
04:55
|
|||
There is chaos living in my mind
and all I feel is I'm behind
All I want is a sense of peace
Make my way into the garden of ease
And I've tried so many ways
To get into this place
Meditation and song they work for me
A place where I can breath
A little belief can change a life
In an instant day from night
Like a child lights up from your smile
It can spark the start of many miles
When it all comes down
I will get there eventually
When it all comes down
A place that pulses in me
I've been lying in this tomb
Now j see that it's a womb
I've been thawing from this freeze
As I enter the garden of ease
And I've tried so many ways
To get into this place
I can, it all comes down
I will get there, hell I am there right now
I will get there, i will get their God speed
I will get there and find stillness in this breeze
I will grow further than I know......

Your Walk
03:37
|
|||
Hey you're today as you become play
and the sun in the sky well it shines
"you're alive" on this day
Bask in the ray as it says what we can't say and you've come to a time when you feel you've arrived on your way
You're a little bit of everything and anything you've tried
Wherever your pull tugs you, you walk with your own stride
Waded through the hours
and where it takes you to
It's found inside a rhythm
a being that's known as you
and you will be the one who takes it from now on, sifting through the reason rising your own dawn
more of you, roots of you, flower you, parts in view
On your way ......
all the smiles they're for you and all the miles you will do as you have reached a finally, you have reached a finally
so stay here as long as water reaches your leaves as you'll have other finallys
and look right here for finished disbeliefs as you walk through and you walk on and on
all the smiles for you....

Pearl Search
04:41
|
|||
wind blows in, swirls..curls
in life, we all.. search for pearls, for pearls
and once again, the empty feelings full, so full
we may bend and we may break well, none of this
is a mistake at all... at all
trial and error, through walls of terror
to see unique is your need
in your search for pearls
and once again, the empty feelings full, so full
we may bend, we may break, none of this
is a mistake at all... at all
beauty in the smallest of the pearls we find
they are the lure to a purer piece of mind, well
some moments linger and others slip through
fingers in your search for pearls
beauty is the smallest of the pearls we find
they are the lure to a purer piece of mind
well some moments linger and others slip through
fingers in your search for pearls
we may bend, we may break, none of this
is a mistake at all... at all...at all...at all

At Ten
05:29
|
|||
Take a walk with me, let's go find belief
I want to see the stars again with the wonder that I had at the age of ten
So I walk alone, once again I'm on my own
She lost the magic she had for me
In her eyes
We no longer share the skies
In each one of us Peter Pan, Elvis Presley, superman....in each one of us Jacque Cousteau to marvel at the earth and the sea below
I just need someone who understands the little boy inside the man I just need someone who understands part of me lives in a dreamland.....

Never Tree
04:54
|
|||
a little bit of water, water to the earth
water touches seed, seed starts birth
sprout grows from seed, seed grows through dirt
here comes the pain, you know it must hurt
a little bit of water, water from the rain
a little bit of growth now, a whole lot of pain
I will plant the never, plant the never seed
and over time grows the never tree
never come on, never come on
a little bit of water, water to the roots
water touches seed, seed bears fruit
root becomes trunk and pith turns to bark
a little more light now happens in the dark
never come on, never come on
a little bit of water, water from the rain
a little bit of growth now, a whole lot of pain
I will plant the never, plant the never seed
and over time grows the never tree
what have I planted, planted inside me
oh i've planted the never tree
working the land til the sun shines
part of it is dealing with the pain sometimes
I want to touch never
I want to feel never
I want to see never
I want to be never
never come on, never come on
never come on, never come on
a little bit of water, water from the rain
a little bit of growth now, a whole lot of pain
I will plant the never, plant the never seed
and over time grows the never tree

Blooming Time
03:52
|
|||
I welcome you with rose pedal
then we begin to meddle in feelings that we made some time ago
You came out to discover our feelings for one another a hope the passion speaks as you arrive a hope that what we had is still alive
It's good to hear your voice again, to see your eyes and feel your skin, it's good to know the dream is finally real, you are there when I reach out to feel
A few days is the blooming time, to see if we see eye to eye and then we go our separate ways again, to see if we can be both lovers and friends, to see if we can make that promise til life's end
But It's good to hear your voice again, to see your eyes and feel your skin, it's good to know the dream is finally real, you are there when I reach out to feel
You are there when I reach out to feel

Weight of your Soul
04:56
|
|||
Stand right there inside yourself, you don't know why
and you hold onto what's drowning you, it's not time to die
and you've waited and waited, for oh so many years
ad you've waited and waited, you're drowning in your tears
the weight, oh the weight, yea the weight of your soul
way outweighs your skin and it's time for you to move on out
all that lies within
You try but you can't even think right now
your head is a maze
there's a brief, brief moment of clarity then
back to the haze
well it's time for you to let it go
you need some release
the skin that your in isn't fitting you
your not this disease
the weight, oh the weight, yea the weight of your soul
way outweighs your skin and it's time for you to move on out
all that lies within
piercing through the doubt of what it's all about
finding your own shrine and make the water wine
free me up, tilt the cup, twist again in this night
leave me there, in the air, til i find something right
to come down to
the weight, oh the weight, yea the weight of your soul
way outweighs your skin and it's time for you to move on out
all that lies within

Hats
08:13

How many hats can he wear til it weighs him right into the ground?
What is the cross he will bear on his way to finding profound? Will he find it there, find it anywhere, will he see it there see it anywhere at all?
Twist it away when you wanted to breath say what you'll say and then be what you bleed. Almond butter, caviar all the same in the jar, open up and then you'll see that you waited there alone in their inside of your belief
How many hats can I wear til it weighs me right into the ground?
What is the cross I will bear on my way to finding profound? Will I find it there, find it anywhere, will I see it there see it anywhere at all?
Twist it away when you wanted to breath say what you'll say and then be what you bleed. Almond butter, caviar all the same in the jar open up and then you'll see that you waited there alone in their inside if your belief...
There's beauty in your failure, there's beauty in the way that you wander then fall apart as you recreate today
