well he lit you up
like amber waves in his movie show he fixed you up real good till i don't know you anymore from ballet class to a lap dance straight to video and the pool side news was that he would be launching you *into every young man's bedroom - you gave it up on dvd and magazine - you gave it up a private rite of passage you gave it up to every boy's sweet dream with their paper cuts you said "he's got a healing machine it glows in the dark glows in the dark: you say "there's not a lot of me left anymore - just leave it alone. but if you're buy, and you have the time, tell the northern lights to keep shining - lately it seems like they're drowning" he cold light you up and summon every swan or the lakeside off to cabo san lucas for some optical stimulus then you started to guess there was someone else though his flint glass seeing all of you immersed in his sepia * Repeat so i went by - cause i had the time, and told the northern lights to keep shining they told me to tell you - they're waving |

nothing here to fear
i'm just sitting around being foolish when there is work to be done just a hang-up call and the quiet breathing of our persian we call cajun on a wednesday so we go from year to year with secrets we've been keeping though you say you're not a templar man seems as if we're circling for very different reasons but one day the eagle has to land out past the fountain a left by the station i start the day in the usual way then think -- well why not -- and stop for a coffee then begin to recall things that you say no one's at the door you suggest a ghost perhaps a phantom i agree with this in part something is with us i can't put my finger on -- is thumbalina size 10 on a wednesday -- so we go you tell me to cheer up you suspect we're oddly even even still the eagle has to land out past the fountain pluck up the courage and snap it's gone again i start humming "when doves cry" can someone help me i think that i'm lost here lost in a place called america |

where the river cross
crosses the lake where the words jump off my pen and into your pages do you think just like that you can divide this you as yours me as mine to before we were us if the rain has to separate from itself does it say "pick out your cloud?" pick out your cloud if there is a horizontal line that runs from the map off your body straight through the land shooting up right through my heart will this horizontal line when asked know how to find where you end where i begin "pick out your cloud" how light can play and form a ring of rain that can change bows into arrows (i found a thrill) who we were isn't lost before we were us indigo in his own blue always knew this if the rain has to separate from itself does it say pick out your cloud |

in the lush virginia hills
they kept her as long as they could cause they knew when the white brother found white shell beads wrapped around her skin a life giving river her body open as will his hand and with a "goodbye" there she goes she may betray all that she loves and even wait for their savior to come and in some things, maybe he'll be right but as always the thing that he loves he will change from her sunrise to clockwise to soul trading still she'll lay down her body covering him all the same so hundreds of years go by (the red road carved up by sharp knife) she's a girl out working her trade and she loses a little each day to ghetto pimps and presidents who try and arouse her turquoise serpents she can't recall what they represent and when you ask, she won't know she will betray oh virginia do you remember when the land held your hand oh virginia she will let you back in oh virginia you can't remember your name |
