Dandelions

Stars shine, tracking time
Watching us they gleam.
Warning do not live inside a dream.

So stern you check your watch.
Light your cigarette
Look at me: Are you ready yet?

We could chase the the happy things that disappear
Running like a stream
Watch me now and see the way I follow them
Dying in your dream

Running through the green green grass
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside a room

Draw the curtain burgundy I’m staring at the stars
You come close hold me in your arms.
Pour wine it’s your time, light your cigarette
Whatever you want is what you’ill get

We can chase the the happy things that disappear
Running like a stream
Watch me now and see the way I follow them
Dying in your dream

Running through the green green grass
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside a room

Pour your wine it’s your time your gone.
All the things you wanted will go on and on
Leave the room, watch your step, find your light
Stepping out like darkness into night.

But everytime you leave I feell so cold inside
How can that be right?
Turn my head & think about another day.
Running through the night

Running down a green green path
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside a room.

Did we chase the happy things that disapear
Running like a stream
Did you see the way that I
Drowning in your dream

All the starts align into a cube
A universe born just inside this room
Stepping there so easily a dream inside your mind

Then lit his cigarette
I knew so soon
Cigarette shine across the room
Pour your wine its time then your gone.

Pour your wine, it’s your time, light your cigarette
All the things you wanted are the things that you will get
All the stars seem to aligning forming in a cube
A universe just inside this room.

Pour your wine it’s your time your gone.
All the things you wanted will go on and on
Leave the room, watch your step, find your light
Stepping like a adfe into the night.

Even with you here i feel so cold inside
How can that be right?
Turn my head to dream about another day.
Running through the night

Running down a green green path
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside this room.

light your cigarette
When you leave the room I will forget
Nothing in this world has touched me yet.

Chairs

Don’t be scared
Step right in
You decide when it will begin.

Chairs are horses
Beds are men
All of them under your command

Time moves slow
Tick tick tick
Watching you there as you sit
And your fingers reach for another cigarette

And all the horses
All the men
Women under your command my friend
My friend

I want this for you
To give something to you
Let no one know the things I do for you

And when you walk in socks
Pad padding on the floor
Slipping sliding through the open door

I need to entertain my mind
The only way that I can find
Or otherwise my hands will shake
And deep inside my little heart will break

And all the horses all the men
All of us at your command my friend
My friend

The curtains start to heave and swing
You think you see a diamond
You close your eyes and he’s a beast
You open them- a violet

Stay focused on the things you need
The hand beneath the silky sheets
The voices echo all around
The drugs that make it all go down

And when you walk in socks pad padding on the floor
Close your eyes, you’ll be back for more

Why Trust is Dumb

I am One

Saw his ax between the trees
He took his aim right at my knees
Still I am one.

Hid behind the trees in fright
I stood there frozen through the night
But he was gone.

Did he find another world?
Well I don’t know.
Either way it’s time to cry
They tell me so.

Pull myself between the sticks
The sky was dim, the mud was thick
Still I am one.

Something move inside my hair
I jump three feet, was that him there?
No he is gone.

Find a town to wander there
Without a name.
Watch them throw their marbles down
For one more game.

The town. Mirrors all around.
Windows to the sky. So I shut my eyes.
And in the darkness flow. Into the woods I go.
The night a single time. The town a single mind.

Take a breath to watch the sky
See it open big blue eye
Yeah we are one.

Hang their clothing on the line
Through alleyways the people wind
Into the dawn.

You could ask them where to stay
But they won’t know.
They just came to laugh and play
They’ll tell you so.

Not Being There

If you’re wanting power
Someone to control
Come when you feel broken
Then go when you wanna go

I won’t disappoint you
Cause I never really care
I just love not being there.

If you love the darkness
Want someone you can use
Pin them down to hurt them
Leave them there feeling confused

All the times you break me.
I never really care
I just love not being there.

Drinking on your bacolny
Looking out at the big big sea
All the things you want me for
They got nothing to do with me.

Spiritual power
That’s what you’ll give to me
Make the world so broken
When I want to I can leave

And I won’t look behind me
Cause I never really cared
I just love not being there.

I am Bone

Push through trees at night you’ll never
find the one you’ll love forever.
Some die, some don’t
Some will some won’t
Follow me & I will show you.

Come find me, keep in mind we
won’t be coming home- I am bone.

Shine a flashlight on the dark ground
Time changes thing until they can no longer be found.
I once swore to go before you
Follow me & I will show you

Come find me, keep in mind we
won’t be coming home- I am bone.

When they scream you’ll know they’ve found me
Terror and shock they will surround me
Don’t shake don’t cry, I am nearby
Follow me and I will show you.

Come find me, keep in mind we
won’t be coming home- I am bone.

Golden Fingers (Video)

Watch the world with hopeful eyes
staring at its black disguise
hiding-where are you?

Underneath a checkerboard
knights and kings keeping score
crying- can it be true?

Under your purple eyes
black squares and white squares lie
fighting- which one is true?

Under your aqua shirt
hope is killed off by hurt
all on the surface is blue.

Don’t lose heart whatever life brings
you must believe that behind all things
Golden Fingers pull on the strings!

Prop your head up on your arm
in your eyes I see no intent to harm
that’s why I love you.

But the day will surely come
when you will kill or be the one
whom they pour their poison into.

Don’t be their fluffy sheep
sink into places deep
let evil flow through your root.

Hardened heart, inky skull
feast like a cannibal
all of the black squares were true.

Killing hurts and killing stings
but you must believe that behind the scenes
Golden Fingers pull on the strings!

When you’re dark, when you’re mean
doing things that shouldn’t be seen
I will be here with you.

Bodies lie, angels spy
we fall to earth, one day we fly
all of the white squares were true.

In the sky they saw
your hand and they understand
you did what you had to do.

Kill or be killed they know
that’s the way black squares roll
all of their tears were for you.

Don’t lose heart whatever life brings
you must believe that behind all things
Golden Fingers pull on the strings!

The original song… from a time when I was obsessed with men being able to make their way across the checkerboard of black and white squares to receive their crown of solid gold….

Bring Me Down

Look at you and listen to what you say
Follow you whereever you will stay

For so many years I ran away places where I’d hide
I want you to hold me there inside.

Look at you a smile fills up my mind
Feeling warm and burgundy with wine

For so many years I dreamed of places far away
I want you to take me there today

Will you hold my hand when I follow you so far underground?
Will you pin me there when I’m quivering darkness all around?
Will you bring me down?

Looking down and smiling to the side
All the secrets that I hold inside

When he turned to burgundy drag me cross the floor
I cry, then go back for more

Will you hold my hand when I follow you so far underground?
Will you pin me there when I’m quivering darkness all around?
Will you bring me down?

Look at you another shade of red
Rub my eyes and stumble back to bed
All the ropes and wine and fantasy scattered on the floor
Rest first then go back for more

When I think of you, I suffocate something I can’t find
Could you hurt me pull me back again somewhere in my mind?

When you seperate me suffocate dragging on the floor
All the voices hurt me teling me maybe I want more
Will you bring me down?

Will you hold my hand when I follow you so far underground?
Will you pin me there when I’m quivering darkness all around?
Will you bring me down?

Paw Paw The Ringin Boy (Video)

To swing, to fight
A world at night
To shake, to weep
A world asleep.

They sleep, I see
No one touches me
They think I don’t know
The place where all the children go.

Paw Paw the ringing boy
When spring comes he will bring you so much joy.
Paw Paw the ringing boy
When summer comes then the world will fade away.

These things
A world of strings
But look, you’ll see
The world is me.

Alien, okay
I don’t care what they say
I am bought and sold
Although he is very old.

Paw Paw the ringing boy
When spring comes he will bring you so much joy.
Paw Paw the ringing boy
When summer comes then the world will fade away.

Your needs
A string of beads
I dance, I twirl
A milk white pearl

Worlds fade, worlds end
I dance, I spin
No one touches me
Except for spirituality.

Paw Paw the ringing boy
When spring comes he will bring you so much joy.
Paw Paw the ringing boy
When summer comes then the world will fade away.

The Window

They say the rain will play that song again
You know the way it will go.
To feel his net within my mind again
I’ll lead the way even so.

But if you’re gonna take a one time stand, then you’re a one time man
You don’t know the way.
If you want to say that they was wrong when they was barely born
Save it for another day.

If you want to take the easy way and fly
First you walk to the window by my side-
Water running through the drain and
Everything remains the same and

If you want to find the open road and go
First you walk to the window and you’ll know-
Clouds are foaming in the blue, man.
Do you think they’re reforming you man?

I feel the baker take her time again
Stir slow, stir slow all of the corn.
Green fields appear within my mind again
Grow slow, grow slow, only born.

But if you’re gonna take a one time stand, then you’re a one time man
You don’t know the way.
If you want to say that they was wrong when they was barely born
Save it for another day.

If you want to take the easy way and fly
First you’ll walk to the window by my side-
Water running through the drain and
Everything remain the same and

If you want to find the open road and go
First you’ll walk to the window and you’ll know-
Clouds are foaming in the blue, man.
Do you think that they’re reforming you man?

You know the way to pull that cold from me
Pull hard, pull hard, pull with your hand.
My hair was rope inside your hand, you see
Pull hard, pull hard see if you can.

But if you’re gonna take a one time stand, then you’re a one time man
You don’t know the way.
If you want to say that they was wrong when they was barely born
Save it for another day.

If you want to take the easy way and fly
First you’ll walk to the window by my side-
Water running through the drain and
Everything remains the same and

If you want to find the open road and go
First you’ll walk to the window and you’ll know-
Clouds are foaming in the blue, man.
Do you think they’re reforming you man?
