Swimming Moon
03:25

Its a swimming moon. Its lighting up the night. The leaves are reckoning the moon is like sun. Come love, come understanding. Give me that deep old love. Diver you swim. You swim, you swim you swim. You swim where no-body else has been.

Train Song
03:48
|

We shimmy on the ties next to old rail lines all grown up in grass, all grown under; soon disappear and i wonder, 'this feeling inside, what could it mean? and what waits for me at mile fifteen?' My eyes are not wide, the sky is. My heart isn't loud, only fear is. And this train moves life-line-ish. No body's seen nights like this. We are moving through a painting, with the darkness hesitating. I could call my gentle ways, but deep down i anticipate. It was the Whistle who said it, 'Which one of you cares where were headed?' Not me. Not me.

Strawberries

Innocent strawberry, how i look for you now. Summer's gone off and left me to survive somehow. Kind scent of strawberry, how you drew me in. When your leaves come back for spring, i'll wonder just where you've been. I pick the rosemary to pass the time, but its you who's on my mind. i've witnessed winter's crime, so don't feed me the frozen kind. i pick the bay leaf tree to pass the time, but its you who's on my mind. i've witnessed winters crime, so don't feed me the far away kind. Don't feed me the far away kind, cus' they just don't taste like mine.

That Way
03:24
|

You caught me running late, in not my normal saunter, slow-like pace. 'Where do the people swim? Where does the sun dip in?' All of your questions can be lonesome. In this way, here i am loyal to the coast. Start each day endlessly. Its love that i fear for it that way and that way and that way.

Wake of the summer light
Take of the pure delight
I’m in the summer light
and it is Falling
Contemplate all I know
How much of it should I show
Which parts of it help me grow
and it’s Appalling
Black Willows are waving here
Survive for another year
Their wisdom will help me steer
into the Dawning
Now I know that
Water once was Gold
Yes, now I know that Water once was Gold,
so I’m told
Now I know how Water became Gold,
and why it’s sold
Yes, now I know that
Water once was Gold
Caught in the broad of night
Caught my internal fright
I’m in the broad of night
and I am Waiting
On my last straw again
Sensitive under my skin
I’m pushing away my friends
and it’s Degrading
Attention becoming clear
Prevention is getting near
The comfort in things we fear
will keep us Wanting
Now I know that
Water once was Gold
Yes, now I know that Water once was Gold,
so I’m told
Now I know how Water became Gold,
and why it’s sold
Yes, now I know that
Water once was Gold
Basically it boils down to
The manicured lifestyle we cling to
Keep it tame with fossil fuel
The input’s more than the output’s renewal
It’s in our Bed
Our Bread
Our Head
This water is more powerful
Than Gold!

Tiny Sun, Tiny Seed

If you see me drifting off somewhere could you pour some cold water on my hands cus' i've been sleeping all my life, the toss and turn, shallow no good kind. Its tiring trying to think your big so come on now and snap me like a twig cuss' i'm looking for the puddle that can bring an ocean of awakening. Take it all. Take it in. Took all odds to break even. Even you, even you. Even you know just what to do what to do. I want some cinnamon, want something feminine. I want my mother when she was young again. I was a tiny sun. I was a tiny seed. I was inside of that healthy heartbeat. And there was other life and i saw waterfall. And i begin to feel a tiny sense of it all. Take it all. Take it in. Took all odds to break even. Even you, even you. Even you know just what to do. Oh what to do?
My friend, we didn't get here first. the water fell far before your birth. Just think about how long its been around. And what it sees i don't think we have found. I don't think we have found. i don't think we have found...
