somewhere in our dreams

 



only my dreams seem real     is that the dark magic?       or is it all in my mind?    I dreamed of you last night      you were no ghost      you were all flesh and blood     but you would not come with me        when morning called our names     you kissed my lips just once       and vanished when I awakened       come to me tonight      I’ll wait for you there     somewhere in our dreams      where the world can’t drag us down

seconds out...

 

all these fights are rigged       a man don’t stand a chance        he’s got to punch above his weight      from the very start     I was once pretty agile     but now I’m trading blows     the knockout punch was landed     and I don’t feel a thing       coz I’m numb from the neck up       and piteously exposed     one too many poundings      has left me on the ropes      I ought to throw in the towel      like so many suckers before me      but I’m in it for the fight      I don’t know what else to do

silence

 

I shut up shop       just for the holidays     when you’re  silent     everything speaks  to you       me, I move right in       I occupy that space     where silence reigns      silence nourishes      silence is the only sleep I need       yeah, I’m tuned to silence     that’s how my garden grows      out there in the distance      there is a frozen field      deep in the country of silence      I will wait for you there

crazy

 

the god we made is crazy      but everybody’s  crazy     you have to be fucking crazy    to live in this crazy world

I’m not the first to realize  that I’m a little crazy      my doctors say it’s normal      given the circumstances     they said a little poison would cure me of my ills     so they dosed me up on lithium        and locked me up in a hospital      until I learned to play nice

and you dear reader      do you recognize your madness?     do you let it shine before you?      or does it drag you down?      the symptoms after all     are part of human nature    so embrace your inner lunatic    and give your madness life

God

 

what a colossal idea

a truly fantastic hoax

he wasn’t in the sky

he was in my living room

the god of magic mushrooms

the god of revelations

the sign of my ordeal

I bargained for salvation

he crushed me with his love

the god I had in mind

answered my foolish prayer

he give me a shot at redemption

who could want for more?
