Experience & Wisdom
 Crossing a desert searching 
For an answer Does it take a wounded heart
 to sing true of love? Experience boasting loudly,
 "You know not until you know me,
 There is no other way." He continues bragging, 
"I am the way to knowing.
 So why do I doubt?" Wisdom leans in slowly
 Whispering ever so gently,
 "You'll know when I go away." When Silence comes to meet them
 There is understanding between them
 Though they are not the same Experience & Wisdom
 Come to see the question
 And answer one and the same
2.
It all started at 5 years old 
Getting mad running away from home
 Running wild the whole day long
 Until twilight came and you heard mama calling Run run run
 Got to run away
 Run run
 Got to run away Growing up you'd watch the trains 
Rolling in, then going out again
 Lonesome whistle singing through the dust
 Steel wheels shakin' off rust Run run run
 Got to run away 
Run run 
 Got to run away Hold on, hold on 
Riding lightning Hopping trains landed in some mid-west town
 Where you met Robin couldn't keep secrets down
 Oh to find freedom & love 
Dressed in rags coal soot and mud

One more chance 
So begins the dance 
One more gift
 We choose what to do with 
Energy, light
 Night subsides
 Warmth & color 
Turn the hourglass over Sun comes calling Heed this warning
 Day is dawning 
It's early in the morning Face to face
 Blessing this place
 Everything grown
 Everything shown
 
Energy, light
 Night subsides
 Warmth & color 
Turn the hourglass over Sun comes calling Heed this warning
 Day is dawning 
It's early in the morning Mind is the flower 
Consciousness waters 
In sun perfection 
Ever reaching, growing
 
Energy, light
 Night subsides
 Warmth & color 
Turn the hourglass over Sun comes calling Heed this warning
 Day is dawning 
It's early in the morning

True Love 03:39
Falling like a shooting star All around so close, so far Bright and shining in the night True love as celestial light Lunar pull bring waves to shore Brought in lost at sea no more Love as natural as the tide True love as the ocean wide True love grows True love shows In my heart when I give my True love Now I know true love and I can live Now I know true love and I can die
5.
Two lovebirds flying from a tree 
One is you and the other me 
I can't tell just what to sing
 To make your little heart soar with the wind Two lovebirds riding on a breeze
 You and I have weathered most everything
 Burned in cold shivered in heat 
Love birds are good at landing on two feet Two lovebirds up in the sky
 Blue as a Robin's egg clear as the ocean wide 
Sun come down and the wind come up
 That's where you and I have met, what luck Two lovebirds whistling' their tune
 Crow come along and say, "That ain't nothin' new" 
They turn to crow and say, "That may be true, 
But I'd rather sing what's in my heart than try to please you."

Surfer Billy 04:21
When I comb back my hair I make the surfer chicks go wild 
My six pack is known to make all the middle school girls sigh 
I love a new one each day and I don't care when they cry
 I'm too good looking to let anything shake up my good time Oh, when you see Surfer Billy 
In just a moment you will feel the sinking in of my teeth In Redondo I make all the kooks go run and hide
 Me and the homies is dangerous crazy and will fight
 Our spot is only for locals, they know that they can't ride
 Go ahead and drop in on my wave and you will find Oh, that when you see Surfer Billy 
In just a moment you will feel the sinking in of my teeth The sun sets into the ocean, I'm on the beach until night time 
I skate the strand but what I'm looking for I never do find 
These nights reflective I wonder as I gaze into the bonfire 
Is it ego or boredom that's stoking my violent mind? Oh, when you see Surfer Billy 
In just a moment you will feel the sinking in of my teeth
7.
She took my heart from me The mermaid from the angry sea Riding on a wave of green Calling as the siren's sing When I hit the rock My bow broke and so did my heart And I drowned for love of she The mermaid from the angry sea My life long I've looked for thee The mermaid from the angry sea Old tales stirred the heart in me To touch not what the eye can see I chose a sailor's life In part just to catch a sight Of a love could never be The mermaid from the angry sea She took my life from me The mermaid from the angry sea I'd sailed every ocean wide My heart ever desert dry Though to find this dream Would mean the end of me Still I sail my boat towards thee The mermaid from the angry sea
8.
Wormtongue 05:28
Wormtongue slithers slips like a lisp on lips
 Hither thither quivers and shivers like hips
 You know nothing unless I let it slip
 You know your heart flips when I let you hear this and it gets inside
 If you ever get the message wrong 
Blame Wormtongue Wormtongue hides bides time silent in cheek
 Jaws slide like taps just enough to let leak
 The news is sweet but Wormtongue's breath
 Sours the taste of these words nonetheless
 They get inside If you ever get the message wrong 
Blame Wormtongue Put the cup up to my ear 
Through the string heard a little whisper 
Wormtongue stirs doubt into the pot 
Draws the spoon up to taste the mixture I listened to the gossip tact in tow 
Concerning lives of people I did not know
 But unlike the Crow cackling to the wind
 This music-less chatter devoid of any meaning still got inside
 Though I can't lay the blame for long
 On old Wormtongue

Wait for summer, wait for sunset Wait for dawn and the perfect set I can't wait any longer When this feeling keeps on growing stronger Wait for morning, wait for starlight Wait for high tide and the storm to subside I can't wait any longer I can feel the next wave rolling stronger Wait for summer, wait for sunrise Wait for the gloaming and the flicker of firelight I can't wait any longer When this feeling keeps on growing stronger Wait for comet, wait for acceptance Wait for a shooting star to invite us I can't wait any longer I can feel the next wave rolling stronger Looking out from the edge of the whole world Over the ocean the sun and the moon turn Looking out from the edge of it all I almost never existed at all Wait for summer, wait for sunset Wait for dawn and the perfect set I can't wait any longer I can feel the next wave rolling stronger
