Here are all my lyrics. You'll notice on the right side underneath the list of months is a list of my albums. Or use the search button. I am sorry things are abstract, but I kinda like it that way. *smile*
And you take
And you want
And you brake
And you eat
And you sway
And you grab
And you sink
But it's swell...even if you're from the depths of Hell
I wish you well...Il or Elle (He or She)
And you lie
And you wrench
And you wrap
And you wrestle
And you nestle
And you trick
And you smile
But it's swell...even if you're from the depths of Hell
I wish you well...Il or Elle (He or She)
If someone has to be the Evil Octopus, it might as well be you.
Old Man River keeps on emptying his veins
Navigating a sea of shit, it's a motherfucker.
Thundering out with the perilous distinction
Of having no providence to fall upon.
I sauntered upon a most notable occasion
of the silver-tongued Lightning Man.
Vanished youth, putting wood to the fire
She uses no sandpaper on me.
Nothing of any consequence.
Sacrosanct suction. Stretching flicks and flutters
Rolling you in clover. Firebomb fucks in the alley,
Psuedonymphs and sista-womans swinging their
Pendulums of Love.
Nothing of any consequence.
Come lay a while
A simple-hearted love
Come into to love
Making to one
The mystification of sex and spiritual love
You know you want
Come. How you used to say it like we were on fire
The future may never come
It comes back to this
The past may never leave
Inside to now to one
Making tonight
"Cause everything we say and do shutters
To the beat of our own heart
Come. How you used to say it like we were on fire
The future may never come
In your eyes we've been waiting all your life
We've been waiting
Never too near, never too far
Swim or sink, bottom below
The wind we know, we think
Stormalong, savage serene blue-green
You can only know yourself with eyes closed
Cast away fear, feel the jelly fish swish
Oceanus, Oceanus, swallow you up and down
Feedling life with death, feeding death with life
Come with me like thunder to your shore
Wandering and wondering white water in the breaker
Shake your bones beneath the foam and stormalong
A mermaid, she's so fair with silver sea shells in her hair
We go a-roving in the sun
Above or beneath? You must let go to inherit the sea
Above or beneath? Give way! Give way to the boiling sea
A film of the ocean.
Television of clouds.
To think is to stop.
Look North but dream South.
There is no silence, just the illusion of being alone.
You can never turn it off when you find it together.
Until the day begins to darken.
I strike matches at the myth but it doesn't burn.
It illuminates.
Living in the world, but not of the world.
My stillness sleeps.
My stillness shakes
An opulent and gilded single-minded smile.
You can never turn it off when you find it together.
Until the day begins to darken.
I strike matches at the myth but it doesn't burn.
It illuminates.
Dig. You make me wanna dig. I let it get to me since 1979. Love. I want to be so in love with the idea of love. Turn out the light, turn out the light, they'll love you for your entertainment, they'll kill you for your politics. You say it's gonna be O.K. ...Tune out the humming, turn on the stereo...Tune out the humming, turn on the stereo...
The more I dig, the more I pull up worms. The more I dig, the more I pull up worms.
Nothing but tar and turpentine
Vanishing the granduer of the wilderness
Thitherward in the black mud and yellow dust
Twilighted with tallow candles and pigs of lead
My lindsey woolsey shirt is drenched in sweat
Breaking upon a wheel
steeped in the marrow, a foretaste of heaven
Brought to bare this petrified heart
That's like throwing stones to the bottom
Tramps and blatherskites lay down their drunken heads
My lindsey woolsey shirt is drenched in sweat
Oh I belong to this world. I long for the day and the night,
But it won't be long until I leave it...
Only the Lord can know the answer
How can I turn cold yet burn with fever
No providence to fall upon
And no woman to call my name
Just twilighted tallow candles and pigs of lead
My lindsey woolsey shirt is drenched in sweat
Oh I belong to this world. I long for the day and the night,
But it won't be long until I leave it...
God said son "You're on your own and you're not the only one."
We all have our place, our moment in the sun
Then the nightshade goes down
Oh I won't deny it, it's been one hell of a ride
Taking me down into it
I don't want to go, go fast or too slow
Promises make liars of us all
Because "never" will come, and "always" will go
Just a hand drawn circle
Love, just to love
Not what you're used to thinking of
Nothing in return
Can't be the perfect us
To forgive to to not forget
Oh I won't deny it, it's been one hell of a ride
Taking me down into it
I don't want to go, go fast or too slow
Promises make liars of us all
Because "never" will come, and "always" will go
Just a hand drawn circle
I'm in the middle of the stars again
We'll be the light in the deep blue sky
I'm in the middle of a sacred swim
We'll be the warmth on the back of the deep blue sea
I'm in the middle of electric love
Way out smiles through way out wires
I'm in the middle of a strange conceit
Sometimes you are who you meet
More space than sky
Dead and being alive
I'm in the middle of finding myself
In this dislocation daydream
Dis-dislocation Day-daydream
I'm in the middle of the stars again
Too fast to touch too slow to see
I'm in the middle of a sacred swim
Manifest destiny is my plan
More space than sky
Dead and being alive
Dis-dislocation Day-daydream
