Chorus:
Exchange the solid ground
For life in waves of sound
Trade the path well-worn
For beats or songs newborn
Verse:
You may find us on the otherside of night-shade
Vulnerable prey, we'll catch you as you wake
You may find us when there's one good breath to take
Sneaky notes align to fill your air space
Chorus
Verse:
You may find us in the middle of the day
Little sounds surround to pounce in your way
You may find us waiting by the bed
With the light of dreaming in your head
Chorus

pity case
03:49

a pity case
stained by
a nervous wreck,
beneath the face,
deeper than
deep eyes,
a dozen
strange
designs,
hosted by
burried
chest
cries.
years of noise
churned into
silence.
a tight
faithless
grip.
a stumbling mass
too terrified
to salvage
or leave behind
the shadowy skin
of a long
time.
morning seemed
so far away.
morning seemed
so far away.
morning seemed
so far away.
then the quiet
lips of the dawn
hailed a heartful
living song,
showing clear
and straight
through,
up and out
of me or you,
cut through
coulds and
should and
lonliness,
before the scars
and tainted heels,
before the fire
on the battlefield,
the harmony
sweetly
rings.
like anything
that grows,
like young
turning old,
it's just 'knowing'
when you 'know'
that there is
meat on the bones
of loosing
so much weight
off this pity case;
leave behind
burried
chest
cries.
the night turned
in today.
the night turned
in today.
the night turned
in today.

tired sun stepped out
as we all left town
music bus glides our lives
together meadow sound
celebration melody
please stay in check
fuel creation currency
time to collect
listen and play
on our stage
as if life were candle light;
hold dear, gather in,
contour natural time.
space and shapes
change with each move
with music and love light
in mind

spoke the words, tender throated
what will come? what will come?
reverence for you, reverence for you
undo your cold with imparting hands
unhand, unhand, unhand
glowing chimes and light signal
cold times ahead, cold times ahead
winter's generous plight sown
sown thread by thread
thread by thread
undo your cold with imparting hands
unhand, unhand, unhand
