Gather up the peace petals
and lay them over you
Cedar smoke from the cherry bowl
circulates the room

Hear the owl ask
Kiss your photograph
feel our hearts attach
Flip the hourglass
Take some power back
Fear turns into ash tonight

New love is frozen
Summer blood is flowing
True colours showing
all around

Look at all the free feathers
scattered on the ground
Fallen from a mile high
they never made a sound

Hear the owl ask
Kiss your photograph
Feel our hearts attach
Flip the hourglass
Take some power back
Fear turns into ash tonight

New love is frozen
Summer blood is flowing
True colours showing
All around

There's so much magic in the moments unravelling
The fruits and flowers – all the blossoms of her
If I go blind I'll just listen to the birds and the rain 
and the words I've ignored for a while

Accepting the offering we're working hard to deserve
Protecting the property you'll never find in a hologram

New love is frozen
Summer blood is flowing
True colours showing
All around

Summer Blood

Pour up the summer wine
Forget the paradigm
Deep down the county line
Living on highland time

Baby darlin' I just love it here
by the water with the loons and the deer
Baby darlin' I just love it here
next to you, oh next to you

The beautiful pines caressing a golden sky
The bluest of eyes forgiving these flaws of mine 

Soak up the summer light
Protect your peace of mind 
Out where the herons fly
In northern paradise

Baby darlin' I just love it here
by the water in the woods with you dear
Baby darlin' I just love it here
next to you, oh next to you

The beautiful pines caressing a golden sky
The bluest of eyes forgiving these flaws of mine

Little wild land make wild man out of me now
Little wild land make wild man out of me now

Little Wild Land I

Build another condo in the wetlands
Take more scrapers to the sky
Run another road through the forest
Set more fires to the wild

Where are we going?
When will it stop?
Will we ever get enough?
Probably not, we're insatiable and incapable of feeling full

But I hope we work it out on time
I hope we make it out alive
The earth will heal just fine
It's you and me that's dying

Hand another million to the rich
Place more poison on the shelf
Put another white man on the moon
Cut more flesh for my mouth

What are we doing?
When will it end?
Will we ever be content?
Probably not, we're insatiable and incapable of feeling full

But I hope we work it out on time
I hope we make it out alive
The earth will heal just fine
It's you and me that's dying

There's an ocean at the door
There's a cancer at the core and it dug deep
There's a truth I can't ignore
It's all of us will always want more

But I hope we work it out on time
I hope we make it out alive
The earth will heal just fine
It's you and me that's dying

Insatiable

Wake from dream to dream
feeling so serene
tired suns still rise
forgotten birds still fly

Dawn on the lake
not a whisper, not a wake
Early on the water 
little visions of a daughter
Mornings on the surface 
there's a stillness that is perfect

Before the people fill the street
Before the news enters your feed
Before the work steals all your time
Before the smoke pollutes the sky

Peace from shore to shore
nestles to my core
Nature's melody
echoes through the trees

Dawn on the lake
not a whisper, not a wake
Early on the water 
little visions of a daughter
Mornings on the surface 
there's a stillness that is perfect

Before the people fill the street
Before the news enters your feed
Before the work steals all your time
Before the smoke pollutes the sky

There are colours you can't paint
There are sounds that you can't make
There's a spirit you can't break
in the youthful light

There are moments you can't waste
There is beauty you can't rate
There is wild you can’t tame 
in the youthful light

Dawn On The Lake

Stargaze into the night
where the full moon has nowhere to hide
Stargaze in the atmosphere 
and I can't help but wonder what we're doing here
Stargaze into the sky
It's the one place they can't seem and monetize
Stargaze into your eyes 
'cause the ones there above us won't empathize 
like you do
   
Don't let 'em fool you 
They'll never shine as bright as you
Don't let 'em fool you 
They all came from the same place as you

Stargaze right through the clouds
We're far enough from the city to see them now
Stargaze into the clear 
where the planets are hangin' like a chandelier
Stargaze into our space
where nothing is contrived or out of place, nah
Stargaze into your eyes 
'cause the ones there above us will never cry
like you do

Don't let 'em fool you 
They'll never shine as bright as you
Don't let 'em fool you 
They all came from the same place as you

I can count them up whatever 
I can count them up all night
I can count on you forever 
I can count on you for life

Stargaze

I wanna grow like a tree
and to change like its leaves
I wanna be like its roots
never needing to see that fruits
I wanna flow like a stream
Reflect like its gleam
I wanna be like its shore
Never looking or asking for more

I want to flow like a stream
Reflect like its gleam
I want to be like its shore
Never looking or asking for more
No

Broken empire, hide your cracks
Stolen land spoils in our hands
Wingless angels walk the streets never heard, never
Corporate kingdom, raise your wolves
Protect the profit, ignore your conscience
Cut the corners, hide the seams
Inject our dreams with money

I wanna grow like a tree
and to change like its leaves
I wanna be like its roots
never needing to see that fruits
I wanna flow like a stream
Reflect like its gleam
I wanna be like its shore
Never looking or asking for more

Failing system, feed your robots first
Let the devil join in our dance 
Slay the beast, line your pockets, ride your rockets
 
Do you feel good now my friend?
Do you feel loved and free?
Do you feel good now my friend?
Is this all we can be?
Or do you long for something better?
Do you long for something real?
Come along for the moment
Grab onto the wheel

I wanna grow like a tree
and to change like its leaves
I wanna be like its roots
never needing to see that fruits
I wanna flow like a stream
Reflect like its gleam
I wanna be like its shore
Never looking or asking for more

Is this our nature?
To put up walls and worship numbers
Follow the halls?
Is this our nature?
To watch the bombs and sing the anthem
like it's our song?

I wanna grow like a tree
and to change like its leaves
I wanna be like its roots
never needing to see that fruits
I wanna flow like a stream
Reflect like its gleam
I wanna be like its shore
Never looking or asking for more

Grow Like A Tree

Give what you can
It’s enough
Leave what you will
It’s a lot

If I have a daughter
Let her have your grace
Let her be strong
Let her be pure and brave

Oh little wild land 
Go on make a wild man out of me 
Oh little wild land

Let the birds sing often
Let the people pray
Let the forest flourish
Let the children play

Be what you are
It’s enough
Show every scar
It’s a lot

And if I have a son
Let him shine like yours
Let him be warm
Let him radiate

Oh little wild land 
Go on make a wild man out of me 
Oh little wild land

Let the fear escape us
Let the borders fade
Make the love abundant 
Let the moment reign 

Live in wonder 
Celebrate
Give mayflower to wars
