lyrics

rhyme on a flight to tenerife

Some people, automatic by choice, afraid to use their inner voice
Unwilling to experiment to change their environment
Unable to see beyond conventional wisdom
You can criticize me for being what I be, for doing what I do in my attempts to be free
But countercurrent is my nature, music my savior, common sense my philosophy, happiness my task you see
It ain't easy to break the routine, to try to be a small Gandhi or King
People confused they need to obey the rules, they don’t know themselves and think we're the fools
Never stoppin’ to question, the logic of the lesson in a school or a book, never stoppin' to look
For the relevance of the message, social pressure of acceptance, the unconscious conformity that reveals itself easily
I get a little crazy for my own mental sanity and I'm just sane enough to know that I'm crazy
I don't need to plan I'll make one up as I go, experimenting as I please, failing till I succeed
That's how I live that's how I'm free, no boxes no ties, no need to tell lies
No definition to put an end to my options
My love is inside not based on your opinion

parasite

Night of the living dead, a parasite is in my head
 
Violence will not be, part of my philosophy
But if it were I tell you that the crime scene would be bloody
There's no more blood to feed your soul, you've disappeared just like a ghost
I know you’re out there looking, looking for another host
 
It's the night of the living dead, a parasite's in my head
 
We all know your game, played again and again
The means you use could not be justified by the end
You see only what you want to see
Blind to harsh reality, an automaton that's lacking some essential human qualities
 
Doublethinking constantly  
You tried to double your money
But it’s double or nothing
You can't play again
 
Don’t you look at me with that confused look on your face
Puppy dog eyes filled with lies you're a disgrace
You’re read just like a book my friend
Easy reading for children
It's time to close this chapter 
Cause we have reached the end
 
Night of the living dead, parasite’s in my head
 
Don't you try to pull the wool down over my eyes
How many lambs do you have to slaughter as a sacrifice
You like to wear your new fur coat, after a game of cutthroat
You tried to lay your sins down on the head of the scapegoat
 
Convinced by the lies that you live
And you act as though you see right through it
It's a crying shame
 
 

rewind

A Cat's Cradle, strung up in my mind, thoughts that are tied to strings that unwind but, are always pulled back inside
I am unable, to find the cradle or the cat, my fingers are caught, I can't untie the knot paralyzed, by uncontrollable thoughts
 
And man I'm trying to let it go, in every way that I know
I know recovery is slow, but I am making progress, going back in time as I rewind
 
And it's time, to rewind, just a little while, to hear my voice inside 
Please take me back, I want to see inside the picture of my life
 
I climb a ladder, and get to the top, somehow I drop, and I cannot stop, climbing up to the top
I am trapped, in the Relativity, don't know what to believe, and in my mind I bleed, and all I can do is scream
 
You’ve got to live until you die, and I don't mean just survive
The day you do not feel alive, is the day to stop the time, press rewind, and cut the strings you can’t unwind

Now it’s time to rewind, just a little while, to hear your voice inside
Please pardon me, I'm going to leave this place, and my departure is tonight
 
Well I'm losing myself as I slowly drift away in harmony with the earth’s energy, it's nice out here outside of my mind traveling through space time and slowly leaving the known world behind
 
I see your face out in space, we float away, where there’s no gravity
I want to scream, I open my mouth but there's no sound and I must turn away
I know we'll be alright and free and eventually find another gravity
And so tonight I travel on in the night sky and slowly fall asleep to my soliloquy
 

SUGAR

Please woman
I'll be your man
Every day and every night, I can
 
Soon's the time
To leave behind
All these games and all this tension building up inside
 
Honey bathed
Sugar glazed
Skin like milk that slowly nourishes
 
A million flames
Softly burning
In unison and in my mind they all have become one
 
Oh, sugar, I need you so, you so
Blood is asking for you, now you know, you know
Energy circulating but I am weak
But scared I am of the feelings for you in me
 
 
 
 

TaBULA RASA

Quiero olvidar todo lo aprendido
Quiero empezar desde cero, vacío
Y dejar los recuerdos en las fotos, los libros
Quiero correr por paisajes desconocidos
 
Quiero formar una tabula rasa
Una hoja blanca, una pluma negra
Yo quiero fumar oxigeno puro
Y exhalar el humo oscuro
 
Porque la semilla no crece en tierra muerta
Y la tormenta aparece sin ninguna advertencia
 
Quiero sintonizar las cuerdas viejas
Quiero sintetizar la ecléctica mezcla
Quiero evitar conversaciones sin sentido
Palabras vacías volando sobre el nido (del cuco)
 
Quiero formar una tabula rasa
Una hoja blanca, una pluma negra
Yo quiero fumar oxigeno puro
Y exhalar el humo oscuro
 
Porque la semilla no crece en tierra muerta
Y la tormenta aparece sin ninguna advertencia
La semilla no puede dar fruto si no la siembras
Y la tormenta me acerca a un surco en la tierra arada 

E. Z. COME (HERE WE GO)

On the right flight, time is just right, for a good time
Time to break free, break the routine, with Brother E
E.Z. come and here we go and where are we going?
Tenerife, up the Teide, black sand beaches
 
By the right bus, dance in the dusk, Austrian lust
On the A6, Aviles is next on the list
Here we come and here we go and no time for slowin'
White smoke floating up, cider in my cup, music is my love
 

sun's gravity

I don't want to express what I'm feeling right now
Cause I want to keep it inside for a while
I cannot deny, no good to even try
What the wind has blown into my life
 
What is your name little girl
What is your game little girl
Cause I feel you inside, I'm feeling alright
But I don't hardly know you at all  
 
I've been burned and been scared, once bitten and twice shy
But a new flame burns, and provides moonlight  
A blessing or a curse, for better or for worse
The gravity of the moon pulls my soul to her womb
 
What is this haze in my brain
Purple in nature it seems
Cause I feel you inside, I'm feeling alright
I feel like I've known you a while
 
Tears pumped to my eyes from my heart through my veins
When the words that I read make my pain go away
It's as if my mind, was read through her eyes
And in reply she said, what I could not express
 
What is this haze in my brain
Purple in nature it seems
Cause I feel you inside, I'm feeling alright
I feel like I've known you my life
 
Tell me what is your story my girl
When did you enter my world
Now I see the moon shine, the source of its light
I see that Sun’s gravity, pulls me
 
 
 
 
 
 

mean what I say

I don't say what I mean but I sure the hell do mean what I say
I'm drowning in my mind and I'm gasping for each every breath I take
Cause there's a storm inside my head and a tidal wave that's rushing through my brain
And the more I try to swim to shore the farther I keep drifting out to sea, lonely sea, losing all my energy, something is consuming me
 
And while you contradict yourselves, talk of heaven and of hell, we live a lie
Using fear as your means, obedience is an end without a soul, ain’t no life in this hole
 
Well I'm confused but at times in my mind all my thoughts make perfect sense
Don't be afraid to seek the answers to the questions that they told you not to ask
Cause what I feel is what I feel and that’s the only thing that I consider real
And if they teach you what to feel then what you really feel is only pushed inside, shoved beneath buried under pretty fields, rotting with the dead bodies
 
And while you contradict yourselves, talk of heaven and of hell, we live a lie
Using fear as your means, obedience is an end without a soul, ain’t no life in this hole

goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye to who you were
I, I'm leaving now, I don't know how, nor where
But I'll find my way
 
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye to what we were
I know, it's hard to say, but I must confess
This loneliness is killing me
 
But I know I can't live, with what I see in a memory
And I know that they say, that time will help make sense of this someday
 
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye to who I was
I, I'm shedding skin and I'm gonna get a new ID 
This time a picture of me smiling
 
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye to you my friend
I do, wish you well and who can say that one day
We'll never meet again
 
Sometimes, all I want is for time to just pass me by
And leave, leave me where, just where I was found
And leave me one sweet lullaby, leave me one more song tonight, before we say goodbye
