I've been alone I've been silent in my grave I've been praying, Lord, been trying to get saved I've been tellin' these lies, been writing my songs But I've been doing more right than wrong I can hear the roaring thunder Rising up just through them hills I've been hollering "hallelujah" Trying to get my fill I'll burn my gypsy skin all night and all day I'm preaching the word of God Got nothing else to say One day, baby, gonna tear you Right limb from limb If I can never gratify Your master sin Oh, I think somebody's gonna find you Lock you up and throw away the key I think somebody's gonna teach you How to throw away all your goddam misery I've been alone I've been silent in my grave I've been praying, Lord, been trying to get saved I've been tellin' these lies, been writing my songs But I've been doing more right than wrong I can hear the roaring thunder Rising up just through them trees I've been hollering "hallelujah" Right down here, upon my knees

(I) Met a Voodoo Sensei born in Mississippi He was riding on moonlight dancing with the gypsies It was hard to tell if she could realize what i was saying i was speaking through a singing-bowl and chanting what i shoulda been but i shoulda been miles away up high on the tightrope chanting the name of God although it could have been God you saw speaking through the hourglass looking at the time that pasted although we should have been gone And everything was miles apart Leaving me in the middle of the desert of your crimson dawn just before the sun lifts it's head back out of the blackness where all things are dead I met a blue-eyed beauty queen walking cross the silver screen I tried to realize my dreams but all I got were broken things although we coulda been a thing you and me yeah, we could have been a thing And the devil's throwing curve-balls trying to get you to fall many should be made to crawl but all you got to do is call upon your brother when you need some help or comfort there are many here among us who would lend their hands in struggle if it gets too hard to handle all you have to do is ask and you shall receive I'm gonna thank the sun whether it's risin' whether it's sinkin' could you dispel my disbelief in all the beautiful things I'm seeing and all of god's creation will rise up to the occasion Indigo Children I know you know when we gonna begin re-birthing the nations (I) Met a Voodoo Sensei born in Mississippi He was riding on moonlight dancing with the gypsies It was hard to tell if she could realize what i was saying i was speaking through a singing-bowl and chanting what i shoulda been but i shoulda been miles away up high on the tightrope chanting the name of God although it could have been God you saw speaking through the hourglass looking at the time that pasted although we should have been gone I'm gonna thank the sun whether it's risin' whether it's sinkin' could you dispel my disbelief in all the beautiful things I'm seeing and all of god's creation will rise up to the occasion Indigo Children I know you know when we gonna begin re-birthing the nations

Fade Out 04:07
Pull yourself together man I can play the weather man We can throw our- selves against the wall and we can build it all up again I could be your lover you could be my savior we can fade out 3x Questioning your statues stronger than your virtue morning looking like a picture frame Hungry for your blood lust Thirsty for your head rush how love rolls on Looking through my rear view now my heart is brand new Beating for the first time 3x Now you can please me like I paid you and I'll be glad to show you how to pull your- self up against the pressure Find out how to measure all that you've become Found the love of my life and I made her my wife Now we can fade out 3x

Untitled #9 05:01
In the same way that you did you do it all again and you're running like fire on the wings of a western wind and nobody knows all the pain that you carry around it's all your own it's all yours You're running through the frightened trees in the land of the fallen sun and you're wrapped up in materials but the howling winds ain't never done and nobody knows all the pain that you hold within in the kindness of the bitter cold you're paralyzed I watch you do what you do what you did 3x All over again And the silence is unnerving won't you say something move your tongue Love is all above you and light is all around But love is all there is

In the desert we've been dreaming for so long I stopped believing in the promise of relations between man and all creation But with this pen I'm writing I am starting to enlighten and awaken my desires that have been choked out by these crafty liars Hidden deep inside under the lies that be abide Should we climb or should we hide Are we living or are we dyin' Mastering mystic memories Moving the movement to infinity A testament to my destiny Compassion will empower me I said, Compassion will empower me Release us from the anguish and all of painful history Resentment is a killing thing May we learn to be forgiving beings And self expression is such a blessing All creation was created for creating Like water is tranquility so to we shall also be when information is given free and we live out what it means to treat each other equally despite our fears and our conditioning embrace the ones we have named “Enemy” Compassion will empower me All creation was created for creating When we embrace the ones we have named, “ENEMY”
