Talons

Coming down upon me
Are the talons sharp and clean
Raised hands and eyes wide as rings
Take a dip and wrench them free

A Lot Of Things
01:48
|
|||
I see you sitting over there
pen in hand
blank Pages
hollow stare
coffee cup
lipstick rim
Who will take you up the hill
Buy you drinks, however many spill
See you home blessed and fed
You must hold a lot of things - in

Day drones
And the sleep
Isn’t fitful
She wakes as it’s long past dawn
Hears the curses
As feet pass the door
She waits till the sound is gone
She knows oh oh
The seams, they show oh oh
Still she must go OH OH OH OH
Hallway’s long and the day it is slow
Chorus:
She picks up the stone
Folds the paper beneath
And makes for the river
Water rushing
Side step
Down the slope
To the edge
All her strength it is tested
There
Wind peels off the decals
Of bottles
Ceremonies
tales of old
She gathers them
Bleeds them of remnants
Arranges them
As they go cold
She knows oh oh
Seams, they show oh
Still she must go
Day is short and the way home
Is slow
She tosses the stone
Tears the paper
And makes for a break
In the river
Cars passing
She leaps from the shelter
Music of horns and rubber screeching
Near ....
Sight and sound goes
But speeding past neurons
Electricity digs its way out
Pale is the face now
But fear it is distant
Come with us up over the bend
Solo
She wakes to a shock and a shot
As warm hands hold her down
Reassuring
At the river
The bottles they break
As the crystal arrangement collapses
There ....
She knows oh oh

Sailed On Sailor
02:42
|
|||
Who’s down round the corner at dawn
Hang around
Pass it down
Caught a ride but the motor died
Thumb it fine
Till you’re out of dimes
Stretch of time
Gone by blind
Run it down till your soles are ground
Who’s got the magic spell
Gonna make us well
Divide it up right
Oh life is slight
Solo
Done is done
Sure, I can run
Till it comes in the night
Better keep on the light
Try and patch them holes
Push out that boat
Fly the Sail up high
If you’re lucky enough to float
Who’s got the magic spell
Gonna Make us well
Divide it up right
Oh life is slight

lyrics
Write me a love song
Sing it with your eyes
Let’s fool the fates for a spell
Who says there isn’t time
Scratch me like the surface
Don’t cut too deep
Put a face on me you can stand
Laugh before you weep
Oh, love songs are like diamonds
You can fake ‘em, easy cheap
Pass ‘em like a a faux dollar bill
Basic tip for a drink
Put me in the mirror
Rearview if you please
Do I tell you something
To put your mind at ease
See I ain’t no fool
But don’t take me at my word
Let us be the chorus
Them verses we’ve already heard
Love songs are like diamonds
You can fake em easy cheap
Lie steal and kill for them
Frightful is the need
Solo
Chorus
So, write me a love song
Sing it in your sleep
Remember how it was worth it
watching me up and leave
Douse it in a tall one
Double easy clean
Fool the fates for a spell
Cast them to the breeze

The Mutineer
03:47
|
|||
Mutineer against all seas
Knows the tide grows
Black pitch swells - land unseen
Fearsome unknown
As the several screens they glow
Odd shapes, sizes
Slow the rate of tumble
Clean fall
Oh, the bow it creaks
Against the angry waves
Who will join with me
Lay your shackles down
They drink of wine and feed
With our backs straining
Hands work, arms in chords
Below is stifling
Limbs tossing hail of coal
In increments collapsing
Oh the bow it creaks
Against the rough command
If I awaken still
The will is in me
Change -
In come those rolling clouds
Thick black and bleeding
Wood snaps across the bow
Breached hull now freeing
Oh cast upon
those waves
Undercurrent
swimming brave
Flashes from the sky
Now grey
And spiraling
Amid the din I wake
Head dull and throbbing
Upon the day, I take
No war worth fighting

Emily (Of Sorts)
05:34

I’d rather be
Among your bright and dark phases
Certain phrases of wisdom you’ve found
Sealed them in a bottle
You and me
A slow stroll in the dark
Long exchange of taste touch and sound
Burning through the pages
Turning through the ages
If you’re hiding you will know
Soft touch
Now you’re whispering
The shivers fall & they rise
Certain phrases of wisdom you’ve found
Hungry for another day
What happens now
A slow stroll in the dark
Long exchanges of taste touch & sound
Leave you in the shadow
Trail you as you follow
If you search it
You will know
Falling fast and slow
You’re like the trick you played
Shot from the hip and I’m failing it
Far below you now
Your eyes are lifting off the face of the night
Where you’re hiding
And you know
Soft touch now you’re missing
I flail and fall as you rise
Bright exchanges of light, bursting sound
Leave me dull & rattled
What happens now
A slow stroll in the dark
Touch the edges
And make for the sound
Hungry for another day
Casting for another play
When you find it you will know
Falling fast and slow
Your eyes are tripping
Off the color and shape
As it’s passing
Far below you now
I’m just the rock under
The steps of your feet
And I’m failing it
All around me now
You’re of the weight
as sheets of sound
Crush and roll
And I’m pushing it
Far above me now
I trace the space and the weight of it
Falling fast and slow
You’re like the trick you played
Shot from the hip and I’m failing
If you’re hiding you will know
I’m not afraid for you
If you’d only make it simple
Getting kind of old now
What to do
Say we’ve had enough
I’m not afraid for you
If you’d only make it simple
Dark along the road now
What to do
Say we head out
- Solo -
I’d rather be
Among your bright & dark phases
Certain phrases of wisdom you’ve found
Sealed them in a bottle

Stranded
09:57
|
|||
Traveller was cast out
Upon the land
No friend could extend a single hand
No more water
No rushing streams
Only dust clouds
Misery
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Upon a hilltop
He rose to stand
Swollen vistas
Barren land
Over dull valley
Fell crystal strands
Of purple poison
On burning sand
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Ship that sailed now
Tatters ungrand
Repair a wasted thought at best
Through the darkest of deepest black
Current had called them
No turning back
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Though the earth sparked
In distant view
The cost to reach it
Reset anew
Beyond the pale hills
There sits a king
And court at ready
Swords willing
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
How long his footfalls
They rose and fell
The air it thickened
A bitter gel
Still rolled those tall hills
And wide expanse
Winged creatures circled
Slow advance
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
- SOLO -
Pon a stone hovel
He surely came
Door was open
Chimes rang
There rested a head
Shorn of the rest
Upon a stove top
Heat was set
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
It’s eyes were wise set
Of piercing blue
Though iris swirling
Kaleidoscope view
He swung and kicked it
Terror infused
Scrambling backward
Stove fire grew
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
As he rose shaking
Upon his feet
A voice it whispered
Assuringly
Though my head speaks
Sure, my body sleeps
In that expanse of empty Black Sea
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
The king shall grant you
One question asked
With your arms aiming
You’ll never pass
He spreads his love upon
Curiosity
For it’s there fate she stows the key
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
- SOLO (electric) -
A final hill crossed
Shallow valley
There shines the castle
Towering keep
So parched he enters
The court he sees
Flowing water
Up to his knees
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Now as he bathes fine
Now as he drinks
The court it circles
Joined voices sing
Irises swirling
Strange horns and rings
After the banquet
He asks to speak
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
The king he nods kind
Upon this wish
His love and patience
He’ll surely give
Traveler he rises
He nods and bows
He feels a weight there
Crumples and falls
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
When he awakens
He spies a void
Hovering silent
expanding proud
It’s arms and tendrils
They call him home
He backs away now
So toward the throne
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
He asks the king now
To here, I go
The king he nods sure
Upon the throne
But what of paradise
And streets of gold
Our soul’s redemption
Of which we’re told
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
The king he gestures
As if to shrug
Says mind and matter
Combined a drug
The mind is void of
Limits imposed
If only matter was but a ghost
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
You melt your metal
You raise your stone
You split the heavens
Till there you roam
You drain all matter
You call it home
So here’s the final wall
Too wide a moat
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
The king he casts him
Into the void
The traveller protests
In fading voice
One brings all matter
Upon his knees
At this abundance
He’ll surely cease
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
- Solos -

Have one
Have one
For me
Have one for me
And the trees all white
If it wasn’t for this
I’d be there
Now this
Have one
Have one
By the fire
Should we hustle home through snow
You first or they’ll know
But the lights, they glow
You’ll see
If it wasn’t
If it wasn’t
For Christmas
If it wasn’t for this
You’d see
So let’s not be down
Let’s sing aloud
If it wasn’t for Christmas
You’d see
