Something Wonderful
03:00

Is there something wonderful
Waiting at the end
Or is this just another way
For me to pretend
Always trying to escape
From what is happening now
When what is happening will not wait
For me to figure out
Always trying to figure out
Aggravation
Anticipation
It’s the same as it was before
Exacerbation and masturbation
All I was
Was bored
All I am is a little bored
Maybe I don’t know a way out
And maybe I don’t know their names
Maybe this time I’ll finally decide
That its probably best for me to stay
Maybe that something wonderful is happening right now
Maybe that something wonderful is waiting for me to finally slow down
Am I finally slowing down

In The Moonlight

Sounds of the day going by
Just alive
I'm just alive
Sounds of the waves going by
It’s just a ride
It's just a ride
Maybe I should go outside
It's so nice out side
Maybe we should go outside
Its so nice outside
I'm O.K. with walking home alone
At night
And I'm O.K. with walking next to you
In the moonlight
I listen to the sounds at night
There's so much life
So much life
I look at the people walking by
It’ s only life
It's only life
I'm O.K. with walking home alone
At night
And I'm O.K. with walking next to you
In the moonlight

Small Gods
03:41

This child
Is here for you
Is wild
Broke into
The wind
The fire
The sightings
Breathing
in and out
into
The wind is bound
Inside
it's now inside
And The small gods are crawling
And the small gods are calling
It can't
Be bought or found
It sits
But it never doubts
The signs
The signs
Are everywhere
And It shouts
But no one hears it out
Cause there's so much fear
It blocks the wall of the castle
And The small gods are crawling
The small gods are calling
These Gods are very small
And sometimes you cant see them at all
But their there they are there
They try to fight and scream
They cry but they never seem to want what they need
And the small gods are crawling
And the small gods are calling
And the small gods are stalling
I hear that it’s never fun to be
In someone elses dream
Cause it’s there’s

THE GODS WANT MORE

I will
Build you
I will
Give you life
And I will
Create you
I'll carve you out
With tiny knives
And I will
Save you
I will
Give you hope
And I will
Break you
I will
Write a note that tells the future
Slowly I will bring you closer
Whisper till you feel the need to hear me
Spend four quarters make a wish
Maybe you are on our list
Maybe it's finally time something will change
If it's just a parlor trick
A fascination with consciousness
Maybe it's just something to keep us busy
Maybe there's a reason why we're so dizzy
I'm tired
Of all these cages
Invisible
But oh so strong
And I'm tired
Of all this rage
Incredible
we lasted this long
Spend 4 quarters make a wish
Maybe you are on our list
Maybe it's finally time something will change
May it's finally time we'll act our age
If it wasn't for this damn machine
We would all be free
And finally rule the world

My Ocean
01:21
|

|
You are my ocean
You are my sea
I feed off you
Can you see me
I am just floating
Hanging around
And I was hoping
That you'd be proud
I have been here
So many years
But have you noticed
My tiny hairs
I love your rivers
I love your streams
I love the way you nourish me
I love the way you nourish me
This land is open
This land is vast
Filled with molecules and gas
Filled with diamonds
Filled with mines
And how quickly
I multiply
I reap the bounty
A harvest so
And you have been
A gracious host

Waking Up

How you gonna pay for it
How you gonna pay for it
Have you learned your lesson
Have you learned your lesson
How you gonna pay for it
How you gonna pay for it
All the veiled aggressions
And the failed repressions
And I won't be coming down
And I won't be coming down (round)
How you gonna pay for this
How you gonna pay for this
All the failed expressions
And the false perceptions
How you gonna pay for it
How you gonna pay for it
All the failed exceptions
Are you gonna go to confession
And I wont be coming down
And I wont be coming round
Are we just waking up
No control, no means no
Are we just waking up
Its all for show, so grow baby grow
And I won't be coming now
And I won't be coming down

Tiny Plastic Soldiers
03:50
|

|
They were tiny little toy plastic soldiers
Laid out on the floor for us to share
If I knew that when I got older
I'd hold one of them dying in my hands
I thought all these games were fun
Didn't matter who had lost or won
I loved my father he loved son
We didn't know
We didn't know
We couldn't care
It wasn't ours
It wasn't ours
it must be theirs
We were coming up from beyond the dunes
The sand was soft the sky was blue
I knew what I was there to do
I knew what I was there to do
But it's different when they're not so small
We use to line them up and down the hall
Knock them over with our ball
We didn't know
We could have cared
It wasn't ours
It wasn't ours
It must be theirs
Can't let it go
I get lost in a stare
I remember there clothes
I remember their hair

Tiny Man
02:16
|

|
He's a tiny tiny man
With tiny tiny hands
He has tiny tiny toes
But a not so tiny nose
He has tiny tiny eyes
So he can't tell truth from lies
He has tiny tiny ears
And he's driven by his fears
If he could only see
How big his world can be
But he's a tiny tiny tiny
Tiny tiny tiny
Tiny tiny man
If he could only know
What it takes to really grow
Instead he puts on a show
He puts in a show
But he's a tiny tiny tiny
Tiny tiny tiny
Tiny tiny man
But he's a tiny tiny tiny
Tiny tiny tiny
Tiny tiny man
It's a tiny tiny time
For this tiny tiny mind
So He keeps to his kind
So He keeps to his kind
If you could only see
That this tiny man is me
But I'm a tiny tiny man
With a tiny tiny plan
It's a tiny tiny land
For this tiny tiny man
