TALE
OF A PROBING MIND SHE’S MOVING FASTER THAN MOST IN A WORLD GONE STILL IN
A WORLD OF SILENCED TONGUES IN A WORLD THAT’S LOST IT’S WILL SHE
LOOKS AT DEATH WITH A WINK OF AN EYE AND GOES THROUGH LIFE ALWAYS ASKING, WHY… RF:
SHE’S MOVING FASTER THAN MOST IN A
WORLD GONE STILL SHE’S MOVING
FASTER THAN MOST… SHE’S LIVING IN A TOMB WHERE THE BLOOD RUNS COLD WHERE
NO ONE DARES TO BREATHE IN A LAND OF FORGOTTEN SOULS SHE SEES THRU SKIN, THRU FLESH,
AND THRU BONE SHE SEES AS WE ARE WHEN WE’RE ALL ALONE… WHAT
MAKES A PERSON TICK? WHAT MAKES A MAN, A MAN? SHE DISSECTS THE SITUATION UNTIL
SHE UNDERSTANDS SHE KNOWS WHAT BUGS CAN GET UNDER YOUR SKIN SHE FIGURES IT OUT AND THEN
DOES IT ALL AGAIN…
KARMIC EQUATION WHAT’S TRUE TO YOU, AIN’T TRUE TO ME IDEAS COME AND GO, LIKE REALITY WE PICK AND WE CHOOSE, TO LEAVE OR BELONG MISTAKES ARE MADE, WE JUST MOVE ON… FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH WE’RE DRIFTING
AWAY FROM WHOEVER WE WERE YESTERDAY WE WORK AND WE WORK, WE’RE HERE THEN
WE’RE GONE MOMENT
BY MOMENT LIFE GOES ON… BR: WHAT IS LIFE, WITHOUT SOMEWHERE TO GO?
WITHOUT SOMETHING TO SHOOT FOR?
WITHOUT SOMEONE TO LOVE? WHAT’S REAL TO YOU, AIN’T REAL TO ME
REVOLVING LIVES, EVOLVING DREAMS FOR WIN OR LOSE, FOR RIGHT OR WRONG WE DO WHAT WE DO AS LIFE GOES ON… THE YEARS JUST BLUR, THE RACE GOES ON IT’S RAN AND IT’S RAN, BUT NEVER
WON IT SEEMS SO FAMILIAR,
THAT SAME LONG ROAD WE
STOP AND WE GO AND JUST MOVE ON…
SIMPLE LIFE WHAT WAS THAT YOU SAID, MY MIND WAS SOMEWHERE ELSE THERE’S SO MUCH IN THIS WORLD I DON’T UNDERSTAND FORGIVE ME GETTING LOST IN MYSELF… WHAT WAS THAT YOU SAID, YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY TOO YOU THINK IT TENDS TO MAKE US ALL CRAZY SOMETIMES ALL
I EVER WANTED WAS A SIMPLE LIFE TO SIT ON MY PORCH AND WATCH THE WORLD GO BY A HAND ME NOTHING, JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE TO TRY KIND OF LIFE… WHAT
WAS THAT I HEARD TODAY TROUBLE
AND STRIFE AND UNMARKED GRAVES THERE’S
SO MUCH IN THIS WORLD I DON’T UNDERSTAND
I USED TO THINK IT COULD BE SAVED…
WHAT WAS THAT YOU SAID, YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY TOO YOU THINK IT TENDS TO MAKE US ALL CRAZY SOMETIMES YES, I THINK THAT’S TRUE BUT ALL I EVER WANTED WAS A SIMPLE LIFE TO SIT ON MY
PORCH AND WATCH THE WORLD GO BY A HAND ME NOTHING, JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE TO TRY KINDA LIFE…
SELF MADE MAN YOUNG AND AMBITIOUS, HE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND (2X) HE WAS ALL HE’D EVER BE, A SELF MADE
MAN HE MADE HIS FIRST KILLING
WHEN ONLY 25 (2X) BANKED
HIS FIRST MILLION AND DESTROYED A THOUSAND LIVES
HE NEVER FELL IN LOVE AND HAD NO USE FOR FRIENDS (2X) PEOPLE WERE SIMPLY TOOLS, FOOLS TO BUY AND SELL HIS MONEY BOUGHT HIM WALLS, LUXURY, AND WIVES
(2X) HE WAS EMPTY AND ALONE,
AND LOSING HIS MIND HE
TOOK EVERYTHING, EVERYDAY, AND BET IT ON HIMSELF (2X)
HE TOOK EVERYONE HE KNEW AND TURNED THEM ON THEMSELVES HE’S OLD NOW AND HE’S BITTER, AND STILL
CAN’T UNDERSTAND (2X) HE’S ALL HE EVER WAS, A SELF MADE MAN
NIGHTSCAPE NO.8 I HAD A DREAM LAST NIGHT, VIOLENT AND DREADFUL MURDER AND MAYHEM, PEOPLE WITH OUT FACES UNFAMILIAR PLACES… IT WAS ALL SO DISTURBING, OUT OF CONTROL FRAGILE AND FLEETING, BREAKING INTO PIECES SHARDS OF SHATTERED LIVES… BR: I WOKE UP SHAKING, UNCERTAIN AND SWEATING
WHAT HAD I DONE? WHAT HAD I DONE? I WOULDN’T HAVE THOUGHT IT IN ME, SO TERRIFIED I GOT WHAT I WANTED AND STILL FELT SO UNSATISFIED IT WAS DRIVING ME INSANE… WEAK AND UNSTEADY, I WALKED THE DARKENED ROOMS OF MY MIND…AND WHAT DID I FIND? IT WAS ALL I COULD DO NOT TO RUN…(BR)
EXISTENTIAL BLUES SO LONG FOR THIS TIME, PERHAPS WE’LL MEET
AGAIN ROADS PART THEN COME TOGETHER,
ONE NEVER KNOWS MY FRIEND THE FUTURE IS A STRANGER, THERE’S ALWAYS ONE MORE BEND SO LONG FOR THIS TIME, PERHAPS WE’LL MEET AGAIN BR: NOW OFF WE GO TO DRIFT AWAY
IT’S WHAT PEOPLE DO EVERYDAY…
TIME IS MADE, TIME IS FOUND, TIME IS ALL BUT LOST WE DON’T ASK FOR WHAT WE FIND, WE DON’T
ASK WHAT IT COSTS THERE’S
A BEAUTY IN NOT KNOWING HOW OR WHEN 2 PATHS WILL CROSS
TIME IS MADE, TIME IS FOUND, TIME IS ALL BUT LOST BR: NOW OFF WE GO TO DRIFT AWAY
IT’S WHAT PEOPLE DO EVERYDAY…
NOW OFF WE GO TO DRIFT AWAY IT’S WHAT PEOPLE DO EVERYDAY…
IT’S IN THE BIBLE SO HERE WE ARE, ONCE AGAIN, BACK
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN AND HERE I AM, ONCE AGAIN, RIGHT WHERE I CAME IN
BR: THERE’S NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN WHATEVER
WE DO HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE DOES IT MAKE YOU TIRED? LEAVE YOU BORED?
THINKING THAT THERE MUST BE MORE I FEEL IT TOO FROM TIME TO TIME A SHADOW DRAPED ACROSS MY EYES (BR) M: WE CRAWL, WE WALK, WE WONDER WHY FROM THE DAY WE’RE BORN ‘TIL THE
DAY WE DIE (BR) WE’RE
NONE OF US AS UNIQUE AS WE WANT DESPERATELY TO BELIEVE
I’M NEVER QUITE WHO I SEE WHEN I THINK OF WHO I WANT TO BE (BR) DOES IT MATTER MUCH AT THE END OF THE DAY IF THINGS DID OR DID NOT GO OUR WAY? THE RAIN WILL FALL, THE SKY WILL SHINE AND TOMORROW WILL BE HERE ALMOST ANYTIME (BR)
