AS THINGS STAND today is the same as
every other day the old men die, their ignorance remains the same old notion with a brand
new face the same old bullshit, the same old hate... we go backwards, forwards, left
and right anarchists dance on the edge of delight nothing adds up, everything divides the
same old bullshit, the same old lies... you can't go back to what never was, though you believe when
all that matters is being right, something's wrong
talk all you want, it's just more noise for us
to hear it's why today is much the same...
we just go up, before crashing down we
go rushing in, just before running out we just go on and on and on we like to think we can
have it all we love to think we've got the world by the balls we just
go on and on and on...

A QUIET DAY ON A QUIET DAY, DOWN A QUIET ROAD
OUTSIDE A QUIET TOWN A SIMPLE TIME FOR SIMPLE
THOUGHTS THE KIND YOU FIND JUST LYING AROUND
A BIRD SINGING, DOG SLEEPING DAY LIKE A THOUSAND OTHERS FRONT
PORCH SITTING, TALKING, DREAMING IT DOESN'T GET MUCH BETTER... A QUIET DAY FOR QUIET
SOULS SO TIRED OF THE NOISE, SO TIRED OF THE GAME... IN A QUIET WOOD, IN A
QUIET CORNER OF A GREAT BIG WORLD
LIFE UNFOLDS, AS INDEED IT DOES THRU
EVERY TWIST AND TURN THE SUN PEEKS IN EVERY NOW AND THEN
FROM BEHIND A PASSING CLOUD ON A QUIET DAY, DOWN
A QUIET ROAD OUTSIDE A QUIET TOWN...
BETWEEN THIS AND THAT AND ALL THE REST I
FIND IT HARD SOMETIMES TO JUST KICK BACK TO JUST LISTEN, TO JUST WATCH WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON TO
REALLY SOAK IT IN...

TRUMPTY-DUMPTY something's a foot, i feel it in my bones it's inside
my head, it feels that close and i'm disturbed to say the least and what i'm thinking is...i need to just leave...
trumpty-dumpty...built a great wall trumpty-dumpty...took a great fall and all his flunkies and his yes men
couldn't put trumpty-dumpty back together again... something's coming, my skin just crawled and i swear i
heard the other shoe fall... the unkown perplexes us, caresses us scares the shit out of us...

THE WHIMSICAL SONG LET ME SEE YOU SMILE, TAKE ME BY THE HAND WHATEVER SHALL WE DO
TODAY? LET'S
SWING, LET'S SLIDE, STARE UP AT THE SKY MAYBE JUST FLY AWAY... THE MAN WOULD BE A CHILD, THE CHILD WOULD BE A MAN...
LET ME HEAR YOU LAUGH, JUMP INTO MY ARMS AND OFF WE GO LET'S RUN UNTIL WE DROP, BE SILLY TIL IT HURTS AND TAKE IT SLOW... QUESTION AFTER QUESTION,
LIFE ONE GREAT UNKNOWN WHERE DO RAINBOWS COME FROM? WHY DOES THE WIND BLOW?
WHAT MAKES OUR GARDEN GROW? WILL THIS ALWAYS BE MY HOME? DOES EVERYONE GROW OLD? WILL I EVER BE ALONE?

SIMPLY LEAVING soon i'll be away from here, soon enough none of this
will matter on the wings of doves i'll fly away, and disappear all together not so much retreating, as simply leaving... do you feel overwhelmed?
well i surely do there's too much crazy in the world... someday can't come soon enough, a day no other day can follow i'll flash a smile, close my eyes, say goodbye to my
tomorrows not
so much retreating, as simply leaving... perhaps my mind's long gone, perhaps my soul has become lost
i'm fading oh so slowly, i wonder if i'll remember...
A LOSS FOR WORDS CHAPTERS FLY, PAGES TURN FROM GOOD TO BAD TO EVEN WORSE I'M AT A LOSS FOR WORDS... ONE MORE DAY FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH ONE MORE POINT OF NO RETURN I'M AT A LOSS FOR WORDS... SOMETIMES I JUST SHAKE MY HEAD SOMETIMES I JUST SAY, OH WELL SOMETIMES I JUST RUB MY EYES SOMETIMES I JUST BE MYSELF... SOMETIMES WE BEND, SOMETIMES WE SWAY...
MOONLESS NIGHT crooks just robbed the thieves
of all their loot crazies picked the locks and set insanity loose some whack job grabbed the mic n started singin the blues it's dark n gettin darker on a moonless night... paranoia put fingers
to keys got
busy plotting lunatic conspiracies fact became whatever one might choose to believe it's dark n getting darker on a moonless night... the unspeakable lurks, the rats all scurry and hide mere shadows walk the
streets shakin each other down for bribes they're out of their fucking minds it's dark n getting darker on a moonless night... take me home darlin, tuck me into bed, i'm wasted tell me a story, make me happy again, i'm wasted hold me tight, don't
let me fall, i'm wasted... politics is religion turned inside out they share the same bed when the lights go down and when it comes to money they ain't foolin around it's dark n getting
darker on a moonless night... bankrupt concepts rule a bankrupt world the air is thick with poorly chosen words everyone's forgooten everything they learned it's dark n getting
darker on a moonless night...
THE WEEDS STILL GROW I CAN FIND MYSELF, EVEN LOSE MYSELF SLOWLY CHANGE INTO SOMEONE ELSE I STOP AND GROW BUT THE WEEDS STILL GROW... YOU CAN FIND YOURSELF, EVEN LOSE YOURSELF SLOWLY CHANGE INTO SOMEONE ELSE YOU STOP AND GO BUT THE WEEDS STILL GROW... WE CAN FIND OURSELVES,
EVEN LOSE OURSELVES SLOWLY CHANGE INTO SOMEONE ELSE WE STOP AND GO BUT THE WEEDS STILL GROW...
