The Meadow

Today the sky opened up for us
And our heads were bathed in a golden light
All of these moments they begin to coalesce
Treat yourself with the greatest care
It isn’t hard to find what you’re looking for
Just follow the path of the black mare
You radiate just what you say you radiate
You celebrate this life with art
Diamond leaves and twisted roots of gnarled trees
All of these fill your lion heart
Fields of green and dandelions
We are laughing
We are crying
Oh the world is spinning slower
Oh my mind is turning over
We met ourselves in the meadow
The place where all things come together
Arms of death
A mother’s face
They held us there in the longest embrace
In a circle of love

Sleep, Golden Sleep
02:31
|

The queen of street cats, the patron saint of the ravens
Told me of a vision she once had
Up on the mesa where stories begin to unlay
The black hawk circles and opens the doorway
Yellow sun gives way to purple moon
Twilight skies bathe us in turquoise blue
Step into new worlds, step into your own mind
The secret spirals, the sequence of Dreamtime
These ancient dances make constellations and patterns
We’re air and matter
We are the storm that gathers
So pull your card and play the chosen hand
What we have isn’t ours to understand
Oh cosmic serpent
Your silence kills me
So many riddles
So many quandaries
Golden sleep falls upon us again
Our eyes will be the pools that cool dragons

Tidal Wave
02:25
|

Feeling kind of manic and I’m losing my shit
Feeling pretty fucked up and I’m out of it
Infinities are slipping out of my hands
Like so many piles of sand
Dark thoughts come like a tidal wave
Feel my heart being washed away
My body dwells in another place
This hurts more than anything, you know
Music sweet music I need to caress
Pray the cycle breaks cause I can’t take a breath
Carry me gently to the land of sweet song
Loneliness chokes me and I can’t carry on
Don’t want to play the game so I’m gonna check out
I’m seeing some shit that I’m not all about
Everything’s wrong – there is no tenderness
Everyone’s lost their reason to live
Floating face down in the river of consciousness

Walk With the Wizard
04:25
|

Walk with the wizard
Mistress of rhythm
Charm snakes with hypnotic gaze
Let your fire blaze
Walk with the wizard
Gaze upon the stance of thine boots
Clothe yourself in the furs of a bear
Talons pluck strings with the gentlest care
Oh daughter of shredders that came before you
Pry out their eyes
You know just what to do
The gems that await you shine in the sunlight
Bejewel this baby where prisms now preside
Clutch with the tiniest grip
Filigree laden with riffs

Earth to Temper the Fire
05:48
|
|||
You’re disappearing now into the night
Your hands gently let go of mine
This is the hardest part for me
And I fall into a fitful sleep
Oh baby, what have you done to me?
Time and distance will be the judge
If what we have to hold is enough
Your lips on mine have made their mark
And I can’t think of anybody else
Oh baby, what have you done to me?
You’ve bewitched my heart so effortlessly
Oh, my pretty bird, please fly back to me
I can’t even look at these pictures of you no more
I can’t touch the things you left in my room
When you’re in love and love disappears
Treasured objects become instant despair
I feel so hot and something strange is coming over me
I’m not afraid to say your love is what I need
The Earth keeps spinning; we have this moment in time
Then we’ll be dust again in the blink of an eye
I don’t know…
When will I see you again?
