I’m a velocity bird. An invisible. I’m a Velocity bird. Faster than all speeding cars. Your whisper is mine. As it lift you from Above. Your pain’s no crime. They’re what Crack you open up your love. Crack open Your love. From the seed to the tree. Crack Open your love. Be yourself, if you wanna be Me. I’m a velocity bird. In an invisible star. I’m a Velocity bird. Faster than all speeding cars. Velocity Bird. Be yourself, if you wanna be me.

Seesaw Sway 04:15
I failed to see into your eyes as i plundered the sky Im a winder of words and you free to pry Shes luning at the moon Ive been looking her way for twenty-three summers now in a seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw sway (as i plunder the sky) In a seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw sway (Out thereeeee) The luna the better (The luna the better) im a crater uplifter (im a crater uplifter) I talk from a dream Its our seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw sway (as i plunder the sky) In a seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw sway (Out thereeeee) Oh whats the matter with this? It all rests with you im not a linger for the bitter pills, coin or gold; no killdrill river, nor young or fey Im a seer of goodness things In our seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw sway (as i plunder the sky) In a seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw swaaaaaaaaaaay (Out thereeeee) Seesaw Seesaw Seesaw Seesaw Seesaw Seesaw Seesaw..... (Out there its a seesaw) In a seesaw sway (as i plunder the sky seesaw) In a seesaw sway (Out there its a seesaw) In our seesaw swaaaaayyyyyyyyyy

Honey butterfly. Blue ring around my eye. Celeste and feint; Turn doodle. Into paint. Give peace to each thing you see! Peace to Each thing you see! Remain no mark. Come running. No drown. In the world. And not of it. No break. Of a promise. Give peace to each thing, you see. Peace to each thing you see! You’re lost and he’s found. You might think, that he’s proud. With one look at those hands. You are cleaner than cloud. Give peace to each thing you see…

I Spit Roses 04:03
THE CAPTAIN IS SEA. In the moonlight the same. The ship all himself. Rose Spitter the name! A high Mutiny. Submerged down under… Shick Shack left you in shock. Shed poison with a lover’s lock. All hands: wounds and taught. Blow the dark, that we thought. I spit roses. Shick Shack, ring the bell! Pretty Penny, they shall swell! Swell kid-like; kid like squeak! Was it a trick, tuuurrreat’a? I Spit Roses. The Captain is Sea. In the moonlight the same. Reflex us and him. He blurts, no sin. The tall One astute. The ginger all things. To all men he’s kind. A split- heart from mind. I spit roses and thank. O, the boat, we thought, sank. I spit roses. Wall to Wall, pillar to post. I’m back at the task, the task that I most love…

If you fall in love with me, you'll never fall out If you take me in, there'll be no way out Without You'll never fall out Effulgate, and you'll see the divine The pouring of love's wine My iridescent, iridescent blue I'll be, I'll be all over you If you catch my glance You'll swim the swan sea Dissolve into ether dreams The truth of you and me

Memory Go 04:03
Fade away- is that not, what was what… What you thought? Drop that Cause! Now is all. Memory Go junk the pause. Let it Go. Left Behind. Discreet sentimental blind then is gone. If debunk. Memory Go, reject the junk. Memory Go! Memory, memory… Promise Love. The caring game. Not cashed in is not the same. Unreal life to strain. Imagined and non existent pain. Memory Go! Not to fade. Not repressed. Not To Save. Up in arms and tight. Memory Go, Backwards sight. Memory Go! Memory, Memory… Fade Away. Is that not: what was what… What you thought? Drop that cause! Now is all. Memory Go! Memory, memory… Memory Go- Is that not what was!

The prince was a bird. Not guilty or the like. A true friend, sip and soft. No suffe- ring cry. All names and some cranks. He’d powdered all off. Their phsychophantic gifts were never enough. Old Lady Shade turns. A vespertilian thing. A motion event. A friend of the Jinn. The Prince and Old Lady Shade. She has a fair eye. She takes her fair share. Of the cities mid-day. That lunch lady’s glare. The Prince and Old Lady Shade. General Woo very nearly smiled. Saw the light in the little child. The Prince and Old Lady Shade

I stay away, when you burn me like fire. I’m unmatched as I’m lazy. You spit as you say: I get crushed by my dreams, that I clawed and begged for. It’s myself, I deceive. I got all, I asked for! If I wait in deep sleep, there’s nothing there to pray for. Uneven and brittle Is there fruit on our tree? Those altered dreams, that I saw there: Now back at us cracked. And loving care notions break as they retract. It’s the morning here now: There’s somepeace but no laughter. It’s myself, I deceive. I got all, I asked for! If I wait in deep sleep, there’s nothing here to pray for. Un- even and brittle Is there fruit on our tree? [The Spirit Master from whom we spent… I sit now and see: All mine was pretence.] It’s myself I deceive. I got all I asked for! If I wait in deep sleep, There’s nothing there to pray for. Uneven and brittle. Is there fruit on our tree?

Slowdown 03:51
The point is up: Touch, elbows, touch! Tell them to look away. Find security and say: look at the clues- Clear as cloud. Drop our love for love! Slow down, slow down! Why let it go to the deeper down? Well, we could look and pray…ah, don’t run! Don’t drown! Look at the clues- Clear as cloud. Drop our love for love! Slow down, slow down…

Secret silk society Secret silk society Secret silk society Secret silk society Who is wise? why, our hearts Made for passing the lote tree It is very, very far Very far indeed Oh, thirst, and yet Astonished we We seesaw soul In another place Secret, secret Is love as traveling? Under the doppled glade Arched embracer trees Who is wise? who is wise? Who is wise? Who is wise? Why, our hearts Who is wise? Why, our hearts Who is wise? (secret silk society) Why, our hearts (secret silk society) Who is wise? (secret silk society) Why, our hearts (secret silk society) Oh, secret silk society Secret silk society Secret silk society

We join this land. Where they paint the ice. To find the new- We throw Saturn dice. We dream in gold Simurg blue. Crème de la crème- Its to death adieu. Now we’re lying on new waves. Our guns have lost their victims names. Our concrete minds have turned to dust. Angelic police have killed our lust. Title overflow. Reads the sign. The secret soul is all that shines. We sing our praise in modal tones. And Dorian’s mirror -We do not own. We’re being lit by the Shining One. Out of ourselves. To ourselves We’ve gone. We click the heels of our glitter red shoes. Crème de la crème- Its to death adieu. Now we’re laying on new waves. Our Guns have lost their victims names. Out of ourselves… [The Secret Soul]
