A spiral
At the center
(Here I am)
Of everything
All directions
(I am something)
Moving up
Moving down
(I am nothing)
A spiral
I am nothing
I am something
Here I am here
I’m here
I’m here

Educate Me

It’s just an exercise
It’s just a compromise
Choices made daily
Wisdom fails me
Educate me
Really?
It’s not a crime
Are you talking to me?
Sunny skies
Where no one cries
Is supposed to be
Were you talking to me?
Perhaps it’s magic
Not tragic
An erasure
A failure to see
Maybe it’s tragic
Not magic
An erasure
A failure to see
Maybe it’s magic
Not even tragic
An erasure
A failure to see

Flowers Everywhere
03:10

Spin old records
miles from anywhere
A trailer in a field
Be persuaded
Remember who you are
Angel from nowhere
Flowers grow everywhere
Dance alone
In your room
Fall without a care
You must be brave
To live out here
To get away
Get away
Time of wonder
In your empty room
Watching funny cartoons
Eating cereal
Remembering the sky
Outside close by
Flowers grow everywhere
Don’t be afraid
To get away
Write some poetry / who cares
Living miles from everywhere
Your soul knows, magic grows
Remember
Flowers grow everywhere
Dance alone
In your room
Fall without a care
You must be brave
To live out here
To get away
Get away
Don’t be afraid
To get away
Don’t be afraid
Get away

Not too sad
But it’s sad anyway
The sun still shines
Since you went away
The world still turns
People still yearn
Sending love to you
Sending love to you
Trial and error
We all take steps
The moon still rises
On everybody else
War and peace
Rain and waves
Sending love to you
Sending love to you
No one wants a war
But this is how it could happen
No one wants to fight
This is how it could happen
How it could happen
Not too sad
But it’s sad anyway
The sun still shines
Since you went away
The world still turns
People still yearn
Sending love to you
Sending

I follow your every move
I saw you light a match then
You borrowed some money
Went out and bought a six pack
I saw you at a party
Went over and changed the record then

You fixed it
You fixed it
How did you fix it?
You fixed it
You fixed it
You fixed it
How did you fix it?
You fixed it
I know I’m in trouble again
I want to fix it
I want to fix it
I need to know
How did you do it?
You fixed it
You fixed it
Experimenting
Taking a chance
One step over the line
One step over the line
One step over the line
One step over the line
How’d you fix it?
How’d you do it
-So smoothly?
How did you do it?
How’d you fix it?
I know I’m in trouble again
I want to fix it again
You fixed it
Can you show me?
How you did it
Experimenting
Taking a chance
One step over the line
One step over the line
One step over the line
One step over the line
You fixed it
You fixed it
You fixed it
You fixed it
You fixed it
You fixed it good
Now I can do it
(You can really do it)
I can fix it
The cost is high
Send good vibes
I can’t afford to replace it
I need to fix it
You showed me how
To not throw my troubles away
You showed me how
To not throw my troubles away
I need to fix it
(You fixed it)
You showed me
You told me
I wanted to do it
Now I can do it
Don’t snow me
Just show me
One step over the line
One step behind the line
The air is clean
The birds all sing
When you fix it
You showed me
You told me
I wanted to do it
Now I can do it
Don’t snow me
Just show me
I can fix it
Fix it

Who are we now?
What could be better?
When do we know?
Where is my letter?
Don’t have much time
I’ve got to move
Away with it all
Away with boredom
Don’t flip out
I’ll be there soon
They all said get a room
Boom boom
Where is my phone?
Are you alone?
Haven’t you heard
about candy?
Shhh - don’t be so loud
We might draw a crowd
I like my privacy
Just like you do
Don’t fret
I’ll take a jet
Or better yet
We’ll meet halfway there
Boom boom
Or better yet
We’ll meet halfway there
Boom boom
Don’t fret
I’ll take a jet
Boom Boom
Who are we now?
What could be better?
When will we know?
Where is my letter?
Don’t have much time
You’ll be just fine
Away with it all
Away with boredom
I’ll send a text
You sound upset
I can’t understand
When you talk like that
I can’t understand
When you talk like that
Boom boom

Heaven (In Your Eyes)

Heaven is in your eyes
Seven is in your eyes
Well, don’t talk to me
I don’t understand
Baby baby baby
I thought you were my friend
You don’t even know
What’s on my mind
You don’t even know
You know I can’t
You know I can’t
You know I want to
You know I shouldn’t
You know I can’t
Heaven is in your eyes
Seven is in your eyes
The way that you look
Is a public disgrace
You look like you are
tripping all over the place
For some stupid reason
I was attracted to you
Baby baby baby
I think that we’re through
You can’t even
Don’t want to
You know I shouldn’t
You know I can’t
Heaven is in your eyes
Seven is in your eyes
Was something there once
There still could be
Now I’m all over you
Baby, Baby, Baby
I’m over you now
I don’t want you
You know I can’t
You know I shouldn’t
You know I won’t
I you know I won’t won’t won’t

No worries, no worries
What’s the fuss about?
Information overload
Seek facts without fear
No worries, no worries
What’s the fuss about?
Slow down imagination
See what’s really here
No worries, no worries
What’s the fuss about?
Please provide a distraction
Viruses are catching
Provide a distraction
From anxiety
No worries, no worries
What’s the fuss about?

A relentless line from here to there
Take your time, don’t be scared
It takes time to get somewhere
It takes time once you’re there
Two lane blacktop driving all night
From early twilight until the crack of daylight
It takes time to get somewhere
It takes time once you’re there
Was that a cop car or a bike rack?
I fall asleep with a map on my lap
It takes time to get somewhere
It takes time once you’re there
Finally, we’re here and I’m ready to swim
Water looks great, I’m diving in
It takes time to get somewhere
It takes time once you’re there
Driving past fields and fields and fields
Power pole lines follow the FM beats
A relentless line from here to there
Take your time, don’t be scared
It takes time to get somewhere
It takes time once you’re there
Two lane blacktop driving all night
From early twilight until the crack of daylight
It takes time to get somewhere
It takes time once you’re there
Drifting on my red plastic raft
Looking back as I drift on past
Out in space
Coast to coast
In the planetarium
I look up
It takes so long for us to see
It takes time for us to breathe
I don’t know what I am doing
Just shut up!

I’ll Let You Know

It was touch and go
But you stole the show
We watched the curtain close
Then it was time to go
We watched the curtain close
I’ll let you know
I’ll let you know
Before I go
I’ll let you know
I’ll let you know
It’s easy peasy
A little freeing maybe?
Will you remember me?
When I’m gone
Will you remember me
When I’m gone?
I will let you know
I’ll let you know
Before I go
I’ll let you know
I will let you know
I’ll let you know
Before I go
l’ll let you know
l’ll let you know
Before I go
I’ll let you know
