Weaving in between the cars on east memorial boulevard on a bike that's made for children All the time you had was running out A light that cuts the thinning fog still safe beside the esplanade You had always hoped for something That all that time would bring would be enough (too long) The cliff beside the ocean You'd climb it every morning Whenever you were up until the dawn (so long) You never kept it all together Never cared about the weather Never wanted to accept that you were wrong Time will pass Tides will turn Still you'll and still you'll learn But there's nothing you can do about it now you dug a hole you can't get out

All Our Own 03:39
Our world has shrunk / the world has grown And it don't feel the same way anymore If we don't treat them like our own how can we know ourselves for who we are? Hypnotizing, Enterprising, Globalizing (what we know) Digitizing, Demonizing, Catalyzing (all our own) Televising, Advertising, Polarizing (what we know) Synthesizing, Automizing, Paralyzing How did we get where we are? Can we save ourselves?

SunDay 03:49
Take my time Even when the sun don't shine I don't mind Lazy Sunday Almost Monday (lets not talk about that now) Find the tallest tree "will you sit with me?" Resting upon its boughs Can you hear the breeze Rustling the leaves (I could lose myself in that sound) Feel the branches sway As the sun melts away From the paradise we've found Take my time Even when the sun don't shine I don't mind

MoonDay 03:04
The sun is out The sun is high But the moon has yet to leave its place in the sky Just can't say goodbye to the night Though it seems so permanently Fixed upon its place in the firmament See, it just can't say goodbye to the night Is it an owl or a lark? It hangs in a stately silver arc The sun my hide its face away But the night will never run from the day The moon controls the sea And all the animals that swim in the deep Why do you think that sharks don't ever sleep Its the sun that gives us light Fills our eyes with its radiant golden light Then it leaves and it continues being night Is it an owl or a lark? It hangs in a stately silver arc The sun my hide its face away But the night will never run from the day

Unison 05:30
Now that it is done, it doesn't feel so strange In lovely unison, not hard to face the change

Landing 02:51
Spare us our time and we'll spare you your words It is something we've already heard If we could fly on the wings of a bird We'd fly to the ocean and there we'd be cured And when we land I think that we should Gather kindling and dry firewood So that we can stand in the place we once stood Have a fire by the ocean and all would be good Descending the cliff to the shore and the stone The brambles are all overgrown We may not have wings We may not have flown But at least this is something we've known

MoonGlow 02:45
Stay with me - I'll lie awake until you go Still in your grace, my heart still races Say the words and then I'll know The moon still glows!
8.
Solere 08:45
Steam is rising from the water carried off to sea by the ever present breeze we watched it float away from the far side of the bay and in the presence of the other its awfully hard to grieve for things you can't conceive as the sky began to fray we started on our way Past the lake we reached the white pines and started upon a steep incline the sky was burning orange and the rocks were dry we saw our feet were flying (could you remember the time before you young?) when only love could exist? Up through a granite wedge there stood a plateau on a ledge There were flowing rivers made of sand Unknown to history was everything the eye could see It was all too grand All too hard to understand (could you remember the time before you young?) when only love could exist. It caught you off your guard put you in your place what space could not contain what time could not erase what colors could not show what sound could not express it brought you to your knees and took away your breath where the past and future meet and slowly swirl around your feet as you start to breathe it in the air is bitter, cool, and sweet It came into your heart on yellow cracking wings it has always been a apart of you its the reason that you sing it is everything you've ever loved in everything you've ever lost it has always been inside of you in the voices of your thoughts it was the hum inside your ears it was the flutter in your heart it was right there to the end of you and long before your start

Dear friends, There is magic in the way you are your own, my friends. Magic how together we have grown. I'll leave a piece of me here when I go. Oh my friends, there is a place inside my heart that is all your own. My friends, we may leave but this will always be our home. I'll leave a piece of me here, with you, when I go (Love come is waves) (Life comes in Waves)
