BEING SOUND
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

The Sun, it shines
Upon my window frame
Your glowing eyes
Bleed through the photo pane

(It's just another day without you . . . ) x 2

CHORUS:
Hope'll get me where I wanna go
Even if crying is all I'm gonna know
Looking forward to Light refracting ground
And colours flowing down
Trust'll get me where I need to go
Even if missing you is all I'm gonna know
Learning how to survive in being sound
The Life is in the sound

It's different
Me not fighting my best
Our final words
Left me possessionless

(I'll write another day without you . . . ) x 2

CHORUS

REFRAIN:
I'll zoom through the moments
Time all the increments
Fly through the limits
Test my patience
I'll loom on the precipice
Move to be noticed
Wide my defenses
Apply my forgiveness

CHORUS

REFRAIN

On you

Being Sound:  Volume One

FORGIVE
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

Oh, sometimes, it's hard
Explaining how you feel
To someone close-minded
With zero plans to heal

Play your silly games
Throw it in my face
The past is forever ago
But you still remain

CHORUS:
For what it's worth, I don't hate you
For what it's worth, I'll forgive

Time changes all things

Oh, sometimes, it's hard
To be misunderstood
When all you feel you've done
Was the best you could

If only others would wake up
And see your value
But at the very end of the day
All that matters is you

CHORUS

Forgive

THE BOYS
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

We're sitting in the driveway, building a rocketship
Drunk as fuck, playing spacemen - we don't give a shit
A burnt-down trailer - someone left the fries on the stove
Of VLTs and bottle kids - fuckin' way she goes
(We will never give up)

CHORUS:
Hands up to the boys
(Making their plans - Freedom 35)
Always playing with their toys
(Chicken fingers and friends bringing meaning to their Life)
Going outta their way to annoy
(At the trailer park - where the real living starts)
Those money-making ploys
My Heart goes out to those boys

The lawn is scattered with broken shopping carts
Somehow, crazy Conky found his way to our Hearts
We're known from towns around to be the guys to call
Our dope is better than that shit sold at the mall
(But you can buy our meat in the parking lot)

CHORUS

(I'm gonna get my grade eleven, gonna be something . . . ) x 4

Mr. Lahey and Randy, always taking the piss
Scoring tickets to Rush to have a shirtless circus
Oh, the microphone assassin and Christmases in jail
Despite the shithawks and shiticanes, the boys will prevail

Hands up to the boys, yeah

CHORUS

(I'm gonna get my grade eleven, gonna be something . . . ) x 4

The Boys

PRICELESS
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

Hello, come closer
I have a secret to tell
For years, you've lived delusional paradise
So I will dehydrate the well

Blatant conditioning
Poisons our ears, eyes, and minds
We can conquer the cabal once we realize
A Truth so simple to find

CHORUS:
We are not powerless
We are not defenseless
We are all priceless
We are more than they've told us
We are not powerless
We are not defenseless
We are all priceless
We are more than they've told us

Hello, come closer
I have something to convey
The leaders of our lands have joined up
Proclaimed this "New World Order Day"

But we hold the scepter
The power to change their plans
We can save our glorious Terra
If we unite plant, animal, and man

CHORUS

(Strobe creative Light
Unconditionally
Placed here on the Earth
Priceless are you and me)

Each one of us can change the World
For everyone and everyone
Each one of us has the energy
Of a quadrillion Suns

Hello, come closer
We're getting closer

(Hello, come closer
I have a secret to tell . . . ) x 2

CHORUS x 2

We are more than they've told us

Priceless

RUN!
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

A ripple through the jungle
Beating down the fronds
If only Life were simpler
Before they dropped the bomb

CHORUS:
Uprel, τρέχουν, köra, ajaa
Courir, vadīt, çalıştırmak

(We are being hunted day and night
So we run without our sight . . . ) x 2

Hissing metal choppers
Teeming overhead
Shielding out the Sunrise
Hiding from the man

We can't even open our eyes without being watched
We can't even take a single step without being stalked

CHORUS x 2

We can't even open our eyes without being watched
We can't even take a single step without being stalked

Run!

Run!

FALL IN LOVE
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

I don't mean to be thankless
But you're standing on my foot
You're putting all your things in my drawers
I never asked for you

And I don't mean to sound angry
But you're taking up my space
You spit your pretty words in my face
I never prepared for you

CHORUS:
If you paid all my rent (every single cent)
If you played with my cats (Louise and Josie)

Falling in love

I don't mean to sound bitchy
But you use all the hot water
Sleeping on the left side of my bed
I never reached for you

And I don't mean to be hostile
But you give me attention
And listen to all the things in my head
I never wanted you

CHORUS II:
If you gave me a kidney (lips and a lolly)
If you stood up for me (defended my honour)

Oh, God, I think I'm falling in love with you

CHORUS III:
If you protected me from monsters (demons and lawyers)
If you went and fetched the mail (and paid for the stamps)

I don't mean to be pushy
But you're coming home too late
We're spending less and less time alone
I never planned for you

And I don't mean to sound needy
But I just cannot let you go
The greatest man I have ever known
I never thought it'd be you

CHORUS IV:
If you make me feel beautiful (so celestine)
If you make me feel ten feet tall (like LSD)
If you shut down my resolve (I must admit)
If you made me fall in love (fall in love)

Fall in love

Fall In Love

THE DEEP
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

It's like a harmony when you swim close to me
I just love being alive
Exotic remedies and moving elegies
You remind me of why

CHORUS:
Young and hopeful, we sail within the sea
(This is so new to me)
Bright and lovely, kelp wrapped around our feet
(I'm just a little girl)
Sure yet clumsy, closing space hesitantly
(But I am so ready)
For the first time, making waves between you and me

Wrapped in the deep

We somersault among the green and leafy fronds
Loving you is bliss
We've heard fish tales before of how it's supposed to go
Never imagined this

CHORUS

Spin salty tornadoes
That's just the way Love goes
To live so joyfully
Wrapped in the deep

Wrapped in the deep

The Deep

OLIVE MONTGOMERY
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

Oh, Olive Montgomery who lives all alone
The "crazy cat lady" with compost on the lawn
I heard someone that she has a son
And he comes by with prezzies every Christmas

Oh, Olive Montgomery doesn't have a phone
No internet, no TV - her mind is her own
I would think it'd get lonely to be cooped in there
But Olive always seems happy

CHORUS:
Olive, oh, lives the only way she knows how
Olive, oh, lives in the Consciousness of now
Olive, oh, lives for her garden and her furry friends
Olive, oh, lives the same Life again and again

Olive, Olive

Oh, Olive Montgomery who lives all alone
The "crazy cat lady" with compost on the lawn
I hear that she fell asleep and passed away
Now I water her flowers every day

Olive Montgomery

THE ONLY LIMITS
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012

Do you feel like you're headed in the wrong direction?
Do you need a little Light, Love, Hope, and Protection?
Do you believe you are not decision, but a reaction?
You are perfection, so

(Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up on Love, my Love . . . ) x 2

CHORUS:
Oh, we're never gonna heal the pain unless we try
Oh, the only limits are the ones created by you and I
So fly

Do you feel like you're the only one who's suffering drama?
Do you need to find the positive within all the trauma?
Do you believe you're nothing more than a worker bee, a drone?
You're not alone, so

(Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up on Love, my Love . . . ) x 2

CHORUS

So beautiful, you are
Keep reaching for the Stars

We are the answers to the questions asked
We are the future, present, and the past
We hold the keys to the Universe
We are the chorus and every verse
We are the spark in our lover's eyes
We don't just disappear when we die
We're teleporters and time-travelers
We are the echoes of our ancestors

Oh, we're never gonna heal the pain unless we try

So beautiful, you are
Keep reaching for the Stars
So fly

(Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up, Love
Never give up, never give up on Love, my Love . . . ) x 2

CHORUS

Ophir (Lindin & DeMeritt)
