1. Ashes

ashes like a veil of black have lifted to the sky 
with the frightened face of death revealed 
the last ones left alive find they've nothing now 
not even the vaguest memories 
of what they've all been fighting for 
what they've to receive

find another way they say, it's over 
nothing can make not a man out of so much less 
his eager taste for victory 
i'm short of impressed 
where would we be standing now if never stood we here 
had we never been reborn we'd never disappear 
along with all the damages we've done through all these years 
i wonder now i wonder now


2. Out Of Mind

my spirit takes a journey through my mind 
in through the endless coloured waves 
the shaded patterns moving through these places 
fan across the faces of my memory

out of sight not out of mind

intellactuality is holding nothing left for me on this flight 
the spaces of the time before 
leave the logic at the door of reality

out of sight not out of mind

rain of the summer fills the hand 
a snow white turtle on a stained glass land 
lie overturned, legs that kick and claw 
cannot bite into the wall

this vision paling slowly now into the tunneling liquid space 
inside this microdot daydream 
i seek an understanding of my life in this place

out of sight not out of mind


3. Tiny Streams

morning sun begins the day 
mothers child has gone away 
locked inside the game that they taught him all to play 
closet city sleeping pretty tired from the day 
and if he leaves the tiny porch light dim 
he'll keep the dogs at bay

snotty little brat he plays 
never puts his toys away 
breaks the ones he's used if they don't sparkle anymore 
dollies in the playhouse kissing 
all their little heads are missing 
chop their tiny hands with this thing 
that's what daddy bought them for

red and white's turned blue today 
i laught to dry the tear away

sitting in my ceilings face 
this boiling rainbow webbing places 
smiles soft anger feeling shapes 
of mouths and hands in sonic scapes 
fingers spanning psychic burning 
black sabbath record turning 
pools of vision, understanding 
forms absorb to keep from laughing 
climb the walls, half inside them 
other side, air is thin there 
friends inside pull me to them 
cannot keep from laughing, laughing

ripples from the portholes making contact 
center bending circles 
growing echoes of each other 
float reflections of this covered consciousness 
inside this eggshell 
masterpieces scattered not well spoken 
yet still undertaken 
tiny streams of orchestration 
flow into this fisheye car ride 
leaning close to catch his good side

tiny streams of orchestration


4. Into The Everflow

i climb up to the mountain 
just to share my point of view 
of life, the universe and everything 
i'll take you to the fountain 
just to have a drink with you 
a slow and everlasting dream

and if we are here just to ease god's sorrow 
lord come to me and i'll ease your mind 
come to me cause i know it's my only way out of this place 
and i know it will come in time 
don't take me away too soon 
but please don't be late for me

and he dipped his head into the existential void 
where he called into the wall of silent empty ears 
among the sea of tangled mouths gnashing 
singing their hideous shrieking smile 
a hard flowing river of hellos he could not wade against 
he could not wade against them

tortured tongues feast their frenzy 
they hiss out all that is nothing 
the night time of the hearing flower 
has put aside the laugh dancing flame 
no longer warming the wings 
of their fluttering dust angel mistress 
the petals have closed for this long night 
their brittle limbs are thinning

their meek and weeping gesture fares their well 
to the falling paper blossoms 
one by one, down into the everflow 
one by one, drown into the overflow 
gliding through the emptiness 
flying through the emptiness


5. Little People

i feel again i'm coming home 
to find the peace i feel alone 
my television friends have gone 
now i can take my time to talk about them

they're nice to me, they smile to me 
they are what they'd like me to be 
i let them keep my company 
and i don't even care what they're selling 
they're only selling

look into these little boxes 
bluer weather, greener grass 
everyone has lots of money 
everyone's in style

little people, little houses 
happy living little lives 
when they wake up with perfect makeup 
it makes me sick

don't need a life of my own, you know i'm so satisfied 
deep in the screen they have made me believe 
i'm so pacified 
they keep me asleep with each day they repeat 
this life they pretend to me

i took my television, unplugged it from the wall 
tiny people crawling as i broke it on the floor 
i put them in my pockets, took them where they can't be found 
then i held them in my hands 
then i made them do really bad things

now i'm afraid to be at home 
because i fear i'm not alone 
my television friends have grown 
now i'm afraid of what they might be selling 
what are they selling


6. Hangin' On A String

riding on an endless carousel of wishes, hopes and dreams 
and it seems that i loose more than i gain 
all the same i remain hanging on a string 
is it wrong 
will it save me from the fall 
or will it just be broken by the wind 
as it spins 
all i save seems to just get taken all away

well it seems like life is just a game of faith 
no mistake 
always try to give more than you take 
always try to make a little more 
out of nothing, if not less 
always better than your best

as you try 
will you fly 
will you sail through the sky 
and leave it all behind with yesterday 
will you say i have faith 
and that's one thing they'll never take away

if i had a chance, lord one more chance to try 
i would start again, nothing to pretend 
without a lie

i would try 
i would fly 
i would sail through the sky 
and leave the misery with yesterday 
and i'll say i have faith 
and that's one thing they'll never take away


7. Freakshow

i'm a tripper man in a spaced out jam 
flying in the circus of a freakshow band 
my ears are wings 
they take me to my dreams 
i close my eyes and i'm alone here singing

in this state of mind, i'm more than myself

i could reach up into the sky, colour in the sun 
in the eyes of my imagination i can roll a bigger stone 
i've cut the ties that build the rule of lies 
and then i tripped away into the void

lay down the gun that defends me 
cover me with a rose instead 
my eyes see the deadland that surrounds me 
but i can see the garden in my head 
all is well

no wall will stand in my way 
if they're too tall, i'll go beneath them 
cut me down, you'll just go through me 
cut me down, you'll just go through me 
i am forever 
i am forever i 
and me you've never really seen 
even when i leave this face behind 
there's got to be another place to find 
where i really belong 
cause here i don't belong 
here i do not belong

so i write this song of mine 
to soothe my ears and ease my mind 
and so another written page 
will turn into the everflow 
will no one ever really know about me 
should they even care

a strange little man 
racing all his bubbles to the surface of the universe 
to see if he could swin out of his own mind 
and as he looked behind, he realized what he had escaped 
he thought that alone he would float out in space for awhile

goddamn mother gonna try to take me down 
take a place in line 
just lead your pigs into the slaughter 
thank you perry for the idea man 
oh, by the way i want to meet you one day 
thank you for the way you sang to me


8. Butterfly

i the watchful eye 
i am the butterfly 
you know you never heard me screaming

i am the question why 
i am the butterfly 
mister mojo can you hear me screaming 
hey jude you look just like your daddy 
i know how it feels it makes me sad 
he won't sing to me anymore 
if you and me shake them 
do you think we could wake them 
do you think we could try 
for most of my life i never could thank them 
for the purple hazed experience 
of the electreic lady's voodoo child 
yes they were bold as love 
just ask the axis

get me through these tired day 
get me through 
i've seen really nothing that your really threw away 
i just see it as if you've gone all the way with it 
gone all the way with it

as if to die 
so that you may really live on forever 
so fly, fly on my little heartbreak 
i'm gonna catch the falling feathers from your wing 
ah yes fly on my little heartbreak 
now i am the acid king

do you think they could look down and see me now 
do you think they would dig the way i sound 
do you think they'd even care

i am forever i 
i am the butterfly 
close to the ground brings no further the sky 
i am forever 
close to the ground brings no further the sky 
i am forever 
close to the ground brings no further the sky 
i am the butterfly
