Calendar Expires
Believe me brother, days are numbered
When time comes things won’t be the same
Just you keep in mind the center
Love is going to win this game
Always hiding information
Never want for you to know
The sacred space of your intentions
Secret waterfalls that glow
Got you chasing dreams they've sold you
Stole you from your inner space
Now all your time is spent to money
Can the damage be erased?
I'm no slave to Nostradamus
I don’t want the world to end
There’s no “others”, cos you’re my brother
And I don’t want to kill my friend
We’re racing towards times end
It’s useless to pretend we’re strangers
Calendar expires
Build another fire cos we’re all singing
Yes, we’re really brothers!
Yes, their days are numbered!
The space of your intentions!
When time comes, things won’t be the same!

Glass Ceiling
It is my understanding that you really misunderstood me
Wide open spaces replaced with a sheet of glass ceiling
You’ve made up your mind and you’re on your own track
Listen up now cos I know you ain't coming back for me
The difference now’s in how you see
Gratification is on a vacation this morning
When I was calling you on in it you bought it and pawned it that evening
The difference between us should do and should die
Cos why should I bother to ever try to make you see
The friends you know that we could be...yeah
It’s my therapy, cos I’m flat broke and I can’t afford the fee
It’s my destiny, cos someone locked the door and lost the key
Your manipulation has caused an irritation in my mind
And I’m looking for truth so I’m leaving your bullshit behind
The secrets between us should do and should die
Cos why should I bother to ever try to make you see
The friends you know that we could be...yeah
It’s my therapy, cos I’m flat broke and I can’t ford the fee
It’s my destiny, cos someone locked the door and lost the key

Death Won’t Hurt
I don’t think that death would hurt
To swim eternally without a shirt
So leave your body far behind
You’re the only one who'll come and save me
from being alone out there
My blood and bones have always been my curse
I lived my whole life just to fear the worst
So leave your body far behind
You’re the only one who'll come and save me
from being alone out there
I’d like to sit here daydreaming and wonder where I’m going
And I’d like to swim in your blue velvet sea…
I’ll never claim that life deserted me
I figured things would land where they should be
So leave your body far behind
You’re the only one who'll come and save me
from being alone out there
I’d like to sit here daydreaming and wonder where I’m going
It’s a bigger understanding... the mystery’s unveiling
And I want to swim in your blue velvet sea

I Instead
Hey now, did you really believe him when he said?
He would buy you forever, you’re deserted and he’s dead
And standing here, I instead.
Sweet girl, do you want to start it all over do you think?
I’m downright down without you, want to kiss you or buy you a drink
Into the night we will sink
I tried to find your cloudy mind
You’re far from what I need
And so I joined this rockin’ band
And I’m singing out of key, and making it bleed

Sidewalk Strut
In the cold and dead of winter’s night
On the wings of love arrived a light
Whispered words that guide and heal so true
So, tell me who’s been looking over you my friend?
And on the hands of one midsummer’s dream
She’s the one who helped me float upstream
Whispered words that guide and heal so true
Tell me who’s been looking over you?
So I’ll take one for the road, two for my body, three for my soul
There’s just no way to know, you cant’s guarantee you’ve got a long way to go
And you know I’m finished with tomorrow
And bygone has slipped with yesterday
And for sure I’m living for this moment
Far beyond a shadow of a doubt
So I’ll take one for the road, two for my body, three for my soul
There’s just no way to know, you cant’s guarantee you’ve got a long way to go
One man walks down a road, another one follows and falls in his hole
There’s just no way to know, you can’t guarantee you’ve got a long way to go
There’s no better place to be than here
There’s no better way to see than clear
There’s no better way to hold that near
You left so much behind, but fear
So I’ll take one for the road, two for my body, three for my soul
There’s just no way to know, you cant’s guarantee you’ve got a long way to go

Liberated Puppet
Well, I don’t feel nothin’ anymore
Well, I don’t feel nothin’ anymore and it don’t feel bad
I’m a liberated puppet with my strings cut loose tonight
Joy has invaded my brain
So I kicked out a friend named pain, why should I feel bad?
Yeah, she had it long time comin’ when she made me mad
Oh my Lord, you put me in this world
So show me how to live and let live and feel no reserve
Oh my Lord, you put me in this world
So show me how to live and let live and feel no reserve
Don’t let those suckers run your life
Think for yourself and always run with a knife
Don’t feel so guilty cos you ain't that bad
You’re the best motherfucker that you ever have had!
Oh my Lord, you put me in this world
So show me how to live and let live and feel no reserve
Oh my Lord, you put me in this world
So show me how to live and let live and feel no reserve
I will understand if you don’t want to talk about it
I will understand if you don’t want to talk about it
So heaven help you, please…

Feather Blue
Let my pen be my sword
My weapon is my word
The ink that bleeds through the truth
Is the key to the gates of you
The fountain that pours through you
On the tips of my feather blue
I’ve got ink that impregnates
My paper blank softly waits
You’re a brash creature I embrace
Love to adore your trace
The religion of slavery
Is trying to let go of me
So who cursed your mighty lord?
Oops, I said a dirty word
And I wrote it down with my feather blue
You bleed so true
You're my feather blue, I wanna make it clear
I long to hold hold you close, cos you bleed so true
Oh, my feather blue, you bleed so true...

Dirty Diamond
The only crime is killing time
Time is money, money’s wine
Wine has got my lover blind
I drink a bottle and think of how
I’ve stayed in one place far too long
Going to walk a thousand miles
Just to see your crooked smiles
I’d love to love you for a while
Girl you’ve got me singing how
It feels so right, it can’t be wrong
I’ve waited my whole life to see this happen
Finally found my Dirty Diamond
It’s not for sale…no, it’s a keeper
First you sow and then you reap her
I’ve climbed mountains to see this happen
Finally found my Dirty Diamond
It’s not for sale…no, it’s a keeper
First you sow and then you reap her
You’re meant to be my better half
There’s a treasure in your laugh
So cut me with your butter knife
I love you baby more than life
You’re my soul and on my mind
I’ve waited my whole life to see this happen
Finally found my Dirty Diamond
It’s not for sale…no, it’s a keeper
First you sow and then you reap her
I’ve climbed mountains to see this happen
Finally found my Dirty Diamond
It’s not for sale…no, it’s a keeper
First you sow and then you reap her

Limit Is The Sky
I just want to thank you, now that things have slowed down
Wanted to remind you, that we’ve been friends for some time
You make it easy to notice, a life that once had passed me by
If they asked us where we’re going, just say, “The Limit Is the Sky”
Limit is the sky, so don’t’ be left behind
Make a move with me, cos you can’t press rewind
A promised happy ending…you try, you hope, you wish, you pray
Life seems never ending, when you’re living day to day
So, if I were you, I’d cease fire, and get myself some peace of mind
Cos time is moving forward, but brother you’re so far behind
Limit is the sky, so don’t’ be left behind
Make a move with me, cos you can’t press rewind
Time, it moves so fast, but there’s so much left for me
These days aren’t gonna last
Time it moves so fast, but there’s so much left for me and you
Limit is the sky

Streetlamps
Wait till the morning after
I’m sensing disaster
That hangs low in the air tonight
And I feel that it just might
Break your heart of glass
Moon, hanging like a razor
Hardly even phased her
That it’s not safe enough to walk alone
The streetlamps won’t be on
It's a long way to her home
If I had some answers, would it be good enough?
Ghosts crowded uninvited
The children might get frightened
If their sweet mom is not around
The goddess of this town
Her Love is so profound
If I had some answers, would it be good enough?

Something To Believe In
You’re something to believe in
You shattered my glass ceiling
My spider web’s unweaving
And I feel so impressed with what I’ve see far
You’re something to believe in
My shattered heart is healing
My spider web’s unweaving
And I feel so impressed with what I’ve seen so far
Golden coin in the sky smiles for me
That tells me Love is there for me
Always there right on time through and through
I want to sing my song for you
Great Divine, I will always want you by my side
You’re a sweet delight, I will always want you by my side
Ball of flames in the sky shines for me
And tells me she is there for me
Every morn right on time through and through
I want to sing my song for you
You’re something to believe in
You shattered my glass ceiling
My spider web’s unweaving
And I feel so impressed with what I’ve see far...
Impressed with what I've seen so far
