One to two songs a week
From despair, fear and sadness, to hope, peace and joy.

2025-18/19

(Check check, Check check one two)

One big step for mankind
One big step out my mind
Running in time
Sitting on the gift it's a vibe
I guess I have arrived
I am home 
I don't gotta search no more
I stepped through the door
I am life
I am one (I am one)
I am fine (I am fine)
I'm alright (I'm alright)
I am alright
Because I'm right here
I don't gotta go nowhere
I don't have to feel no fear
I don't have to feel no fear
Or worry
I am the same as the bird

I Am The Same

Run from yourself?
Where will you go? (Where will you go? Where will you go? ah)
Body so high
And a mind so low (Oh oh)

You crave meaning (You crave meaning)
I know (I know I know I know, yeah)
But the days are repeating 
So slow
Your body is old
But fresh is your soul
Right now you live
Don't worry at all
You crave meaning I know
Tell me where can it not be found?
You are already home
Stop looking around

Meaning

Why cry, why cry?
Time flies, time flies by
A goodbye, I'm so sad
Why die, why die?
Why live, why live?
Is this it, all I could want?
Goodbye my friend

I still love your laugh

At least it's with me as long as I live
But once it hits me that you're not here
My heart is trippin' over my love
A painful feeling I can't run from
'Cause I loved you so much
I love you so much (I love you so much)
And I thank God (thank you God)
That I got to meet you

But now you're gone
And it hurts without you
It hurts without you
It hurts without you
It hurts without you
It hurts without you

Divided
Me from you
Where have you gone?
I will never know
I will never know
I will never know
I will never know
And that's what makes me sad sometimes
When I think about it
And God it makes me sad sometimes
When I think about it

It hurts without you
It hurts without you
It hurts without you
It hurts without you

Without you

Well hey
It's been a wild run
But I've still got so far to go
Well hey
One day I'll see the sun
Right now that's all that I want
Well hey
I guess it's those simple things that we tend to rush by
(Tend to rush by)
In our search for happiness that would really provide it
(Really provide it)
Who would've thought it'd be so easy?
Yeah ah
I'm only where I am
Breathing in the breeze that holds my hand

Well hey
It's been a wild run
But I've still got so far to go
One day I'll see the sun
Right now that's all that I want
Well hey
I guess it's those simple things that we tend to rush by
(Tend to rush by)
In our search for happiness that would really provide it
(Really provide it)
aye
Runnin' around
Runnin' around
Runnin' around
Runnin' around
Tryna find my peace
Tryna find my peace, yuh
Tryna find my peace
Tryna find my peace, yuh
Little did I know 
Little did I know, yuh
Little did I know 
Little did I know, yuh
Little did I know 
Little did I know
It was right here all along
All along
All along
Right here

Does anybody know?
Does anybody know?
Everybody is beyond time
And nobody needs to fight
Does anybody know?

Does anybody even want to know?
Does anybody wanna know?
Does anybody wanna know?
'Cause I would really love 
To talk about this stuff
But it seems like no one wants to hear it
Like I'm making it up
And everywhere I go I see a world that needs some Love
And people who keep getting but just cannot get enough
Oh yeah
Da da da da
Da da da da
Da da da da da uh

It's getting real lonely
It's getting real lonely
It's getting real lonely
Talking to nobody
Talking to nobody
About love
Does anybody Know?

I 
Guess I shouldn't wait too long
(Guess I shouldn't wait)
But I 
Have held this weight for far too long
(Way too, way too long)
And I 
Know that it's not me on my back
(Oh oh)
So I
Gotta fight these attacks

These Attacks

It's a rainy day without you dear
It's a rainy world when you're not here
It's a sunny day when I see your face
It's a sunny world when you're in the place
And I would do so much for you
If I were not stuck to these roots
See you're a woman and I'm a tree
It could never work out between you and me
No no
No no no no no no
No no no
No no no no oh no
This is a letter I hope you read
It's written on what was made of me
They chopped me down and cut me up
All for a book to read
To fight over the words they see
To fight over
To fight over the words they speak
To fight over

Oh there's a pretty thing I wish they could feel
To be a home for the birds that sing (in the field)
To be part of something real
To be part of something real
Like really really really really really really
(Really real)
Oh really real

To be part of something real

Oh so real
really really really real

One day there won't be no days
One day there won't be two faces, yah
One day there won't be no night
And we won't be separated
We won't have to speak our minds
We can all just get it 
We won't have to plan our time
One day we will all be one, yuh
One day we will know when the day is done
But until then I pray
Until then I wait
Until then I live
Until then this is it 
Ah ah, yeah ah ah

And all of our minds will 
Stop the race
Find their place
Oh home
Be home yeah ah

But until then I wait and stay
And float through the day
And go and play
And work and do the things
Yeah

In Heaven

I’ve been
Running around and out of options
Singing my mind out ‘till Austin
Calling my name like I lost it
I think it took off like a rocket
Ain’t got no pills in my pockets
Ain’t got no green in my glove box 
Still I’m higher than I ever thought
I’ve been
Feeling the love that’s all around me
Seeing someone the way God does
Looking around at all the awesome
But still I forget that God’s got us
Because on and on and on and on
I see the patterns of violence
The fear in the eye before silence
So I’ve been
Fighting a feeling of smallness
Reminding myself that I’m not this
Feeling of falling in fear 
All of the sadness and tears
Fade away
Like moments in a play
Moments in a play 
yeah

But I still fight the stress and
All of my best days 
Don’t seem to last long 
I’m, running around with no feet on the ground right now
No feet on the ground right now

I’ve been 
Juggling the pain with the passion
Scribbling my brain out that’s the best action
Calling in for change now 
We all need compassion
We all want the same thing 
Life everlasting
We need
Joyful laughing
Though I know it’s a hard road
Even solo there’s hope
‘Cause we’re never really alone

I’ve been
Breaking down the illusions
And seeing much more clearly
There’s heaven on the other side of lie
But hell right on its boundary
There are many worlds and counting
I see one full of beauty
If we could stop the counting
We would see it truly
I can see it truly
I can see it truly
I can see it truly
Yuh

But I still fight the stress and
All of my best days
Don’t seem to last long
I still got faith though that we’ll make it
Yuh
I’ve been thinking
About how we’ll make it
We’ll make it how we’ll make it

I've Been

(If you are a great artist
You have to come to the point
Where going over it again and again
Is a dance)
Moving forward is an illusion (forward, forward)
Moving backwards is an illusion (backwards, backwards, backwards)
Moving sideways is an illusion (sideways, sideways, sideways)
Losing time is an illusion
But I'll stay in the game I guess I guess I'll
Make a change I guess I will
Give everything I guess I guess I 
Know I've got nothing at all
Play the game I guess I guess I will 
Might as well try I guess
But I don't know no I don't know
But I don't know no I don't know
Yeah (yeah)
I wanna stay
I wanna stay like maybe
I wanna stay
I'm willing to play 
I'm willing to play like maybe
(maybe, maybe)
Yuh
Maybe
Maybe maybe
yuh
But how can I know?
How can I know?
How can I know?
Yuh (ooh)
How can I know?
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh

Moving forward is an illusion (forward, forward)
Moving backwards is an illusion (backwards, backwards, backwards)
Moving sideways is an illusion (sideways, sideways, sideways)
Losing time is an illusion
But I'll stay in the game I guess I guess I'll
Make a change I guess I will
Give everything I guess I guess I 
Know I've got nothing at all
Play the game I guess I guess I will 
Might as well try I guess
But I don't know no I don't know
But I don't know no I don't know
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
(Maybe maybe maybe)
(Maybe)

Maybe the fact I'm here
Is proof enough to stay
Proof enough to stay
I think that I'll stay
I'll stay right here

I Don't Know

One, two
Three four five 
Get it uh 
Get it uh
Yuh
Yah
Three four five yeah ah yeah
Yeah 
(The end, of mortality)
Gotta Go go
Running so fast in a loop
Everybody’s eyes on the loop
Try not to find the noose
Try not bleed the blood
Tryna make it out of the incline
Tryna make it out from the heat 
(yuh)
yuh
Going too fast because everything passes
So it all passes little bit too fast
Going through the motions
Nose in the glasses 
Walking in the mud as everybody passes
Can’t see right better put on some glasses
Can’t see at all like a pair of black glasses
Gotta work hard just can’t be dancing
Oh oh oh oh
Yuh
Going through the motions
Rushing day by day
Just to get to the next thing
Yuh

But there ain’t no next thing
Next day yah
Will we love the next thing?
Paper checks and rings how
Do we run around all so tired? 
Lets let go of the big hand and the little
Father Time was made in the mind of man
Incidentally
Uh
So were the decibels
Don’t try to measure just let the flow
Go go oh do do do do
Life flows on and on and
On and on we go
Trying so hard to hold 
What cannot be held
Yeah ah eh ah

(This is the outro of time)
Outro of time
(Outro of time outro of time outro)
Out of time
Yeah

We’re on the road
The gates open wide
To all of us
What’s there to lose? 
What’s there to lose? 
Da da da da da da dah

The End Of Mortality (Outro Of Time)


I’m swimming
I’m swimming
I’m swimming
I’m swimming
I’m swimming 
I’m swimming
At the bottom of the ocean, yeah
Bottom of my mind
Way under the commotion, yeah
Way under time yeah

But still I’m dreaming of a better time
Dreaming of a far away life
Dreaming of peaceful nights 
And sleepless dreams
Ah yeah 
Ah yeah
Don’t you know yeah
Where I go yeah
Where I go I wanna show you all
Wanna show you all
I think mister moon gets it
I think mister day gets it 
I think mister tree gets It, I think he does

(Yeah)
I was Running around
Doing the most
Someone on the coast
liked the symbol of the ocean
Never knew the half of it
Through the ups and the downs
Ebb and ebb and flow yeah
Hold it up hold it down
Just don’t hold the rope
I’ve been up all around 
I’ve been through the most 
Through the most that I could 
The darkness tryna get me back to the coast
Sometimes I wish I didn’t know the ocean, ocean
Eighty eight the tempo
God on the upload
I would tell the man on the coast, stay on the coast
Really this is stressful yeah
But I know
Life’s gonna pull through never has he not pulled through, yeah
Life’s gonna pull through never has she not pulled through, yeah
Life’s gonna pull through never has he not pulled through, yeah
Life’s gonna pull through never has she not pulled through
Oh yeah


Swimming

I feel weak
I feel tired and sad
I feel afraid
'Cause I no longer care that none of it lasts
I feel heat
I was higher in the past
Even when
I was crying on the floor

But deep down, I know
I'm gonna be alright
So deep down, I know
I'm gonna come out wise
But deep down, I know
I'm gonna be alright
So deep down, I know
I'm gonna come out wise
(But deep down, I know)
Because I don't turn away
From my fear
Because I don't turn away
From my fear
(But deep down, I know)
Because I don't turn away
From my fear
Because I don't turn away
From my fear
But deep down, I know
I'm gonna be alright
So deep down, I know
I'm gonna come out wise
Wise
Why?

So deep down, I know

Piano Interlude

I'll wait
For you
On the waves
While they sing so
Sing so softly
Oh they sing so
Sing so softly

Through the change
Oh the things I do for you
For you
For you
I
I, I, I

I, I, I
Need to know
I need to know
Need to know yeah
I need to know 
Are you waiting for me too?
Need to know yeah (I need to know)
Really need to know 
Can I really wait on you?
On you
(Yeah, ah, ah, ah)
Time my friend
My friend
My friend
For me to stop waiting
For me to go
Time for me to know
What do I want now?
'Cause all those times I waited, for you
Are gone
Those times are gone
Really gone gone gone, gone gone
Those times are gone, yeah
Those times are gone
Those times are gone, gone gone

Those times are gone gone gone gone
So long gone
So long gone
It's time my friend


Time My Friend

You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God

Come, to God
Yeah ah

You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God
You're welcome to God

You're Welcome To God

I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
Where I don't want at all

I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
Where I don't want at all

Yeah ah eh ah
I wanna go away 
To some kind of place
Where the world is okay
Yeah ah eh ah
Somewhere I could stay
And dance all day
With someone who loves me
Yeah ah eh ah
And we don't need to pray
Anything goes some way
That it doesn't go
And we don't have to choose between
Watching the world change or stay the same
Yeah ah eh ah
But I'm here
So I guess gotta take the bad with the good
But I guess it's not bad if it's with the good
And fate is the measurement of 'should' 
So where to ?
Where I could go 
Is where I go
If you would go there with me
To a place where 
If we don't feel something
We just won't believe 
It's a friend of reality
Like my dreams 
Always there with me in 'em
Projecting me in 'em
Telling me what I really need
Like grabbing my hand when I fall off the edge of the black hole
Reminding me to dance when I walk on the top of the cosmos
Reminding me to be my own friend
Reminding me to dance my own dance
Screaming to me "be present"
Screaming to me "be present"

I'll play the game then I'll pull the chords out
Mm hm m
I'll play the game then I'll pull the chords out
Yeah ah eh
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
I wanna go to a new place
Where I don't want at all
Where I don't want at all
