Hold me
For I cannot do this alone
Feel me
I'll be trembling on my own
I will run to her like a child runs home for curfew
I will worship her but will she worship me?
Fever
Rising temperature
Lord I need her
If I'm to ravage this world
I will run to her like a child runs home for curfew
I will worship her but will she worship me?
I will see her in the after hour
I won't leave her until the morning sun
I will run to her like a child runs home for curfew
I will worship her but will she worship me?

Well I tried my hardest
And I put on my best shoes
And walked right away from you
'Cause I can't stand
To look in your eyes
And see myself staring right back at me
'Cause no one knows the shit
That I've gone through
To get to where I am right now
Yeah where I am right now
And I know you feel the same
So call out my name
Call out my name
Well I drove a thousand miles
Just to make my way back here
And I've got nothing to show for it
I passed the bigots
And the boys who claim they're men
But they don't even know the half of it
'Cause they don't know the shit
That we've been through
Hell and back again
We lived to tell the tale
Of all our innocence left standing in the shadows
When we leave our skins
And I know they feel the same
So call out my name
We know we are all the same
So let's make a name for ourselves
Lay down our guard
Bypass comfort
Bold and vulnerable
Like our own prophet
We know we are all the same
So let's make a name for ourselves
You know you are just the same
So call out my name

You creep around my garden
You circle round my head
I must be sick
I thought that you were dead
And yet I feel your warmth upon me
Yet I see your face
Senses serve only to deceive
As I look across the room I see your ghost
The disembodied soul I've grown to love the most
You peer over my shoulder
My hands are tied behind my back
How long it's been? I can't tell
I've lost track
Belongings littered out before
My mind cannot erase
Memories serve only those in need
As I look across the room I see your ghost
The disembodied soul I've grown to fear the most
As you look across the room you see my ghost
The distant heart and soul you long for the most
As you look across the room you see my ghost

Follow me to a party
Bring a bottle of wine (or three)
Join the ants all marching
Must we count down our time?
There never really was a reason
To all our roaming around
I guess we'll dance 'till we drop
Feel like we're on top
'Till we come tumbling
Tumbling down
Riddle me this
Is there purpose to our toil and time?
I'm too gone to remember
Have we fallen behind?
Now where do we go from here?
There never really was a reason
To all our roaming around
I guess we'll dance 'till we drop
Feel like we're on top
'Till we come tumbling
Tumbling down
I walk with a pace faster than most
Every step that I take further from being a ghost
The closer that it hits home
The further that I will roam
From the rise of the east
To the set of the west
I know I'm no good
‘Cause I learned from the best
Now where do we go from here?
There never really was a reason
To all our roaming around
I guess we'll dance 'till we drop
Feel like we're on top
'Till we come tumbling
Tumbling down
There never really was a reason
Never really was a reason
I guess we'll dance 'till we drop
Feel like we're on top
'Till we come tumbling
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Tumbling down

We built this kingdom of glass and stone
Well ain't that wise
We gave our time
One fifth yours
One fifth mine
I stole the crown
Clung to your gown for far too long
Forming bonds that turned to chains
As the tide did rise
It was beautifully brought together
And beautifully fell apart
It was quite organic how we came together
Even more so when we lost our way
We weren't living
Just existing
Passing time
With glass to sand
Stone to pebble
Waiting for the mend
We feel the pull of drowning water
We will not go that way
We know it's good for nothing better than standing in the rain
It was beautifully brought together
And beautifully fell apart
It was quite organic how we came together
Even more so when we lost our way

Change
Ever moving
Ever grooving
Change
Would you welcome?
Would you withdraw?
Strange how the times
Seem so different and so much the same
As our ancestors once told us
The disconnect between our brothers and our sons
A future driven by the triggers of our guns
Change in your pocket
In your briefcase
Change
Would you spare it?
Would you spend it?
Strange how we all
Panhandle and backpedal so well
As our politicians try to sell
Policies built for profit and built to divide one another
But we're intertwined
The disconnect between our brothers and our sons
A future driven by the triggers of our guns
Take a stand
Speak your truth and plead your case so loud
Silence disbelievers in the crowd
The disconnect between our brothers and our sons
A future driven by the triggers of our guns

Home
Where there's life
Where there's peace
Where there's fire
In you
Me
Our light burns
Fearful of fever
And fear of my own
Demise
Lies
Try to keep alive
Feel like a sire
Like a mule up for hire
Reeling from reefer
And pills
One by one
Thrust
Lust
Must trust in
Feelings and fear nothing
As our light burns

Harvest

Waiting in line to join the Divine
Workaholics learn to entwine
The dream with the cruel, harsh reality
Of soils long harvested and cropped
For sale on the black market
Patience is an art long lost
Savoring the sweet taste of haste is famous as of late
Whispering sweet nothing's in our eager little ears
As we wait to claim our holy gift
We work for all these years
We work for all these years
I’m a vagabond so free
Feeding every feral need
Dreams of how it all should be
Master of destiny
And when the nightfall comes
My tired eyes won't shut
Without the graceful nod
From all whom stand above me
In my dimmest shimmer
I will hold out hope
For those who pine away
I’m a vagabond so free
Feeding every feral need
Dreams of how it all should be
Master of destiny
