A LONG TIME
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters & Danny Caing



whatever that presence was
that looked at you through the child
trying to be a quiet mind
and thoughts of uncertainties

experience something similar
you were not looking up
sideways or down over the edge
as sorrows awakened
you want to sleep more quickly
than you had in a long time

get over this craziness
you'll be right to be afraid
the many forms of nightmares
can never direct visions

experience something similar
you were not looking up
sideways or down over the edge
as sorrows awakened
you want to sleep more quickly
than you had in a long time

whatever that presence was
that looked at you through the child
trying to be a quiet mind
and thoughts of uncertainties

experience something similar
you were not looking up
sideways or down over the edge
as sorrows awakened
you want to sleep more quickly
than you had in a long time

A LONG TIME by Danny Caing

UNALTERED VISION
Words and Music by: Danny Caing



you stood silent
looking at the faceless shadows
dropping closer
blocking your way out to the light

a great shadow fall
burying you in darkness
reflecting in your eyes
the soft amber light within
and everything else off
into the endless blackness
and everything else off
into the endless blackness

your perplex mind
that is made up and sees only
what you believe
no matter what you perceives

a great shadow fall
burying you in darkness
reflecting in your eyes
the soft amber light within
and everything else off
into the endless blackness
and everything else off
into the endless blackness

you stood silent
looking at the faceless shadows
dropping closer
blocking your way out to the light

a great shadow fall
burying you in darkness
reflecting in your eyes
the soft amber light within
and everything else off
into the endless blackness
and everything else off
into the endless blackness

UNALTERED VISION by Danny Caing

EARTH 4
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters & Danny Caing



black clouds blew overhead like smoke
darkness clotted the horizon
mounting toward a raga storm
heavily damaged war torn place

walking out onto the ash
rainbows webbing its mind
dark passage to infinity
life's a fantasy to live
consciousness are reflection
not thinking and not feeling

look up into the lake of dawn
the unheard music turning in
deliquescing into the night
among the whiteness of petals

walking out onto the ash
rainbows webbing its mind
dark passage to infinity
life's a fantasy to live
consciousness are reflection
not thinking and not feeling

black clouds blew overhead like smoke
darkness clotted the horizon
mounting toward a raga storm
heavily damaged war torn place

walking out onto the ash
rainbows webbing its mind
dark passage to infinity
life's a fantasy to live
consciousness are reflection
not thinking and not feeling

EARTH 4 by Danny Caing

AZURE SERENITY
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters



time passed slowly but relentless
something more direct and certain
there's a flicker of light ahead
its glow seemed interminable

there was a time when we wondered
if we were getting anywhere at all
we do no more than hold our own
but that could be another illusion

the light in front just disappeared
from time to time was nothingness
darkness overhead turning green
crossing in the triangular space

there was a time when we wondered
if we were getting anywhere at all
we do no more than hold our own
but that could be another illusion

time passed slowly but relentless
something more direct and certain
there's a flicker of light ahead
its glow seemed interminable

ACROSS THE FAR SIDE
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters & Danny Caing



no sign of any picture in the sky
no sign of any impression at all
one cannot see across the far side
one cannot see across the far side

there's nothing to find anything there
trying it in the reverse direction
it's leading to the continuing void
a sense almost of repletion

the fine new world that was being built
were totally vanished like an empty seas
and to the underground survivors
will gain more access to a safer place

no sign of any picture in the sky
no sign of any impression at all
one cannot see across the far side
one cannot see across the far side

there's nothing to find anything there
trying it in the reverse direction
it's leading to the continuing void
a sense almost of repletion

ACROSS THE FAR SIDE by Danny Caing

YOU THOUGHT YOU MIGHT JUST WANT IT
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters



you were silent a moment
you were just so distracted
have you not noticed anything
not contented to have it so

you could not abide the thought that
you were unhappy and alone
you could remember days and years
the sun burning face and a chill wind
feeling washed and lightened and ease
you thought you might just want it
feeling washed and lightened and ease
you thought you might just want it

you were having a hard time
you have been so bad yourself
you should not see a thing from here
you make some up before you go

you could not abide the thought that
you were unhappy and alone
you could remember days and years
the sun burning face and a chill wind
feeling washed and lightened and ease
you thought you might just want it
feeling washed and lightened and ease
you thought you might just want it

you were silent a moment
you were just so distracted
have you not noticed anything
not contented to have it so

you could not abide the thought that
you were unhappy and alone
you could remember days and years
the sun burning face and a chill wind
feeling washed and lightened and ease
you thought you might just want it
feeling washed and lightened and ease
you thought you might just want it

ECHOES WITHIN
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters & Danny Caing



I tried to hold myself back
but I was falling
clutched by a force
that swept through a lifetime
countless forms countless worlds
my own life was merely another shape
I was all of them
I could be any one of them again

nothing could hurt me now
for nothing could touch me
I was empty as a cave
my senses hollow
and intangible as echoes

I translate the energy to music
shining canticles
resounded in my mind
I clutched the earth beneath me
sounds and images within
the inward darkness of my mind
began to mount again
light coiled across my vision

nothing could hurt me now
for nothing could touch me
I was empty as a cave
my senses hollow
and intangible as echoes

I tried to hold myself back
but I was falling
clutched by a force
that swept through a lifetime
countless forms countless worlds
my own life was merely another shape
I was all of them
I could be any one of them again

nothing could hurt me now
for nothing could touch me
I was empty as a cave
my senses hollow
and intangible as echoes

JOURNEY AND LIFE
Words and Music by Danny Caing


not so far away
something small
something living
it ended quickly
somewhere there
somewhere changing

looking up again
clear and strong
gone far enough
how many others
felt no fear
journey and life

get too close to it
intentions
edge of vision
the inner voices
empty face
empty dreamers

looking up again
clear and strong
gone far enough
how many others
felt no fear
journey and life

not so far away
something small
something living
it ended quickly
somewhere there
somewhere changing

looking up again
clear and strong
gone far enough
how many others
felt no fear
journey and life

JOURNEY AND LIFE by Danny Caing

THE DAY'S EARLY DARKENING
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters



you get through and so did I
we had no idea
what happened to the rest
in the end, we took a chance
if you had stood your ground
we won't spin from the scene

no warning came to the other side
not much sign of it so far
sitting out in the ruined cities
the day's early darkening
sitting out in the ruined cities
the day's early darkening

you could make out the figure
we did as we were told
chatting with our own ghost
something like that happened
it was too late to do
anything about it

no warning came to the other side
not much sign of it so far
sitting out in the ruined cities
the day's early darkening
sitting out in the ruined cities
the day's early darkening

sitting out in the ruined cities
the day's early darkening

THE DAYS EARLY DARKENING by Danny Caing

UNFAMILIAR WAR PLACE
Music by Danny Caing
Words by Caroline Walters & Danny Caing



it was not a matter now
of expending lives on the wars
farther and farther beyond
the circles were widening

might not there be a part
midway between
where no one exists at all
might have thought easier
anything seemed
absolutely depended

selfish enough to be glad
there's no hope of replacing
when the odds over something
to unfamiliar war place

might not there be a part
midway between
where no one exists at all
might have thought easier
anything seemed
absolutely depended
