Seek my baby
Weep… sigh… save me
Won’t be right
’til we unite
Tonight
Find true love
Sign from above
Won’t be right

Attraction satisfaction
Singularity of you and me
Won’t be right

Extrospect connect
Two as one
Flow as won

Searching to see
L. O. V. E.
Harking to hear
“Nothing to fear”
By the glow of candle light
In the know on Christmas night
People everywhere
Get together to share
Where ever they live
Willing to give
Let’s seek the meek
Help peak the weak
Shower those lower
With our hour of power
Time for bed
Lay your head
I thank you…
Yes, I do
By the glow of candle light
In the know on Christmas night

If there’s a mountain
That’s interruptin’
I guess she’ll have to move
There can be no mountain
That’s interruptin’
Must confess my love
To you
Movin’ mountain
(Mountain movin’)
’til that mountain’s
More mole hole
Movin’ mountain
I will move earth and sky
’til the angels cry
Making mountains
Into mole hills
And for thrills
Sparkling fountains

Here we stand
With our feet in the sand
Watching the tide roll out
Wonderin’ if it will roll in again?
Rollin’ in again… wonderin’ if n’ when
Wonderin’ if it will roll in again?
What about if it does
Rise higher than it was
On the horizon
The tide keeps risin’
They revel about the sea level
Well, not being level
Trending upward on land disheveled
What’s up? Are you sure
Where the land and “see” merge
You land submerged at the shore
… forevermore
ABOUT THE SONG
Fresh water is being threatened by a decreasing supply of potable water, as well as, salt water intrusion due to the rising sea level.

Feeling that it’s out of you hands?
Let’s turn it around
Turn it around
Feeling that nobody understands?
Let’s give ’em a hand
Show ’em around
The least we can do
… introduce them to you
Pass the connection through
You and I
Slices of the π
Puzzle peaces
Species under sky
Interconnected
Effected habitat (imagine that)
Clearly clinging to gravity
Can you see?
Can you capture
The big picture
Conjecture the texture
Of our structure
Can you picture?

If the dream seems too serene
Listen to the inside
To hear the silent scream
The proof is in the pudding
The cream rises to the top
What good is a saying
From here to the ear STOP
Has time come for you to run
No place to hide?
Nerves come undone
Understand the bird-in-hand
Wouldn’t have died
If she didn’t land
Making haste ain’t making waste
Wont subside
No taste for paste
Toward sunset with no regret
Been a great ride
That I’ll never forget

Just like that
Snatched away
No way?
Do say…
Imagine that
Starting to fray
No way?
Do say…
A golden opportunity
Is coming your way
Acquired immunity
Welcoming pay day
(Welcome in!)
Just like that
You’ e got it back
OK! Do say…
Imagine that
Picked-up slack
No way?
OK!
Just like that
You’re giving away
No way?
Do say…
Imagine that
Made from clay
No way?
Do say…
Just like that
Could be gone
No way
I pray
Imagine that
Right or wrong
Someday…
I’ll lay

Ride with the tide
Who knows…
Whichever way the wind blows?
Rise on arise
Time flows
On the space continuum
… I am
At the mercy of forces
Far beyond me
I see
There’s much more to the virtue
Of “be”
Is the alignment true
Truly true in me
Ahhh…. the virtue in you
Alignment true?
Roll towards the goal
Take control
Avoid the blackhole
Eyes on the prize
Time bends
Around the gravity of me
Vibe sends
Time curves
Nerves converge
Energy conserves

LYRICS
So…
… long to what is was
If was really is
If it happened so long ago
As to be was
Then, maybe it no longer is
… or never was?
Ya, know?
So, so long was
That is what’s up
Heads-up, Buttercup
Before we pass into the past
Let’s find some future… at last
Come on, Buttercup
Shake-it-up

Finger pointing blaming
Self-incriminating
Evidence is damning
worthless shaming
Hate abandoning timing
The call went out around the world
And everybody heard
For evidence that’s granite
Solid rock understand it
For evidence that’s granted
We all live on one planet
Civil responsibility
Please don’t abandon me
Together make reality
A place that we want to be
Take my hand… come let’s “we”
Humans in humanity
One planet
Plan it?
Plan it

As the warlords breed
Weapons of mass destruction
The warlords believe
Here upon is the resurrection
Then the warlords breathe
A breath of foul distinction
As they rile in the bile
Of denial
Drown in the flood
Of the spilt blood
Gnarl and bite
Taking sight
Blind to the kind
Grind, spit and spew
They do
Their toll in human soul
The sole consuming sole
Flashes of light
Off in the night
To guard the gates of eternity
From their mortality
To guard morality
From hypocrisy
Bring the soul out of the shadow
Through any age onto the stage
Life is but a show
Ominous us
Omnipresence
Stardust
Omnipresent present

December Snow
So, you know…
When we witness the Lord sow snow
See a glimpse of beauty
Ohhhh…
Snow
Turn the dark to bright
Absorb the sound
Reflect the light
Peace is found
Clinging tight
So, Lord, sow snow!
Ohhh….
Snow
Looking back at my track
Into the virgin snow I go
So, Lord, sow snow
Ohhh…
Snow
Let the crystals flow
Ohhh…

We’re (fighting) on the same team
Fighting death

What do you say
Come out and play
Today
The game in the garden
Separate(s) boys from men
The more you age
Haste to the stage
Committal service
Fighting death
To the death
As you grow old
Wisdom be told
The dying are nervous
Fighting death
To the death
From the heart sung
Forever young

Head buried deep
Shedding all mystique
Into the crosswalk creep
Really not that far
From being hit by a car
Oblivious
To all of us
Before you end up old
Come out of your own world
Before you end up dead
Listen to what you said
How come you’re in the midst of Vietnam
Lost calm… a pig slaughtered… turned to ham
Singing the Napalm Psalm Song
Head in the sand for how long?
Do you think we might
See the new day’s light?

How can we complete compete

Talking about the obscure
Makes my mind want more
Grab the cat-astrophe by the tail
Non-ordered system
Chaos at the stem
Overhead view of the hurricane’s eye
Then I get “why”
Moving toward conclusion
Fact, fiction or illusion
Fall into enthrall of logical
I believe you found your call

In an era of hate, greed and crime
Maybe it’s time
To step out-of-line
Don’t hesitate to step up to the plate
And hit it out of the park
Shift the gear to out-of-here
Let ‘er rip!
Then, you know
Let it go
Watch it fly
Say “bye-bye”
IN the age of mad, sad and rage
Set the stage
To turn the page
Don’t procrastinate to participate
To calmer “sees” embark
Set sail to a fairy tale
Take a trip
Then, you know
Let us go
Watch us fly
Say “bye-bye”

But nothing comes out

]]>Sucker punch
Out to lunch
Hit me when I’m lookin’
The other way
Think I”m OK?
Hypocritical testimonial
Lying through your teeth?
In disbelief
I’m in disbelief
You know I am
Finding genuine
Looking for true blue
All the way through
Can I count on you?
As a matter of fact
Give a pat on the back
Loving your giving
Loving your living
Keep on believing

Of the chlorophyll
Makes it colorful
Dread the leaves
Turning brown… then, dead
The drab attire of the tree
Starts to get to me
Waiting for the neutral Fall
To turn wonderful
In the Spring
Hatching the amazing
All hail Mother Nature
For she’s sure
To bring green
To our grayscale scene
Hail the Queen!

Excuse me, Dear
Your message isn’t clear
Exactly
What are you doing here?
Earthling bound
Earthling, bound
I heard she said
“Don’t bow your head”
No, don’t cry
Raise your head toward the sky
Raise your voice for the sky

Rise up! Leave behind letting down

I thought I’d be back here
Someday
Just didn’t think it so soon
Didn’t think it’d be
Today
Opposite of high noon
Counterclockwise sunrise
I could feel the cycle
Spinning
From the darkside of the moon
New/knew the shadows would be
Thinning
Approaching high noon
Counterclockwise sunrise
As the cycle turns
Full cycle
From The End an upward trend
Out of the depths of your
Soulful purple
From night into the light
Counterclockwise sunrise

He’s got a mean disposition
Do you know what I mean…
Mean
Down right ornery
Ya see
He really had to go
Ya know
What I mean
Mean
Got himself in the situation
With his backside in a position
That caused a mean disposition
Are you aware
You’d better stand away from there
Stand back
From his back
’cause if you’re over there over there
You might not be coming back
He’s got a mean disposition
Do you know what I mean…
Mean
Got himself in the situation
With his backside in a position
That caused a mean disposition

Erase erroneous

From our memory banks… thanks!

If it’s redundant
To savor the flavor
Then, so…? Let it be done!
Please don’t let the taste
Go to waste
Making haste of leaving
Nothing to waste
Holiday pundit
“To savor the flavor”
Let’s go! Let it be done
Could you’ve meant
Flavor the savor?
I don’t know… can it be done?
A redundant chant:
“Savor the flavor!”

No deposit. No return.
Will the naive burn
If ignorance is bliss
What happens after this?
For every action’s re-action
Are we talking object in motion?
The gravity of naivety
Argh! It’s killing me
(PS no B.S… you, too)
No deposit. No return.
Will the naive ever learn
There’s no bliss in ignorance
If ignorance is bliss…
What do you call this?
There ain’t no slowing down
My brain’s on the train
Blowin’ this bliss town
Wave bye-bye by-and-by
Ain’t tellin’ no lie
Wave bye-bye by-and-by

Given the livin’
Lovin’ the givin’

Did you ever see a rat and a cat?
They just can’t get along
When oil and vinegar are related
They’re always separated
Can you lend me hand
To try and understand
Why we can’t get together
Why never say never?
A snowman with a suntan
What makes it oh so wrong
Or an alligator with a sunbather
It’s a one-sided savor
When a hawk comes a bluejay’s way
Is squawking a bird’s song
Give some candy to a baby
The survivor is no maybe
The rat and I will have to testify
Will I ratify
The rat and you will have to do that, too
Will you testify
Will you ratify

The cooks are in the kitchen
Smells like it won’t be too long
The scent gets me itchin’
For a savory holiday song
Takin’ a trip down memory lane
Do you want to remain
Or come along?
I feel that appetite
And, it’s coming on strong
Gonna try with all my might
Temptation don’t steer me wrong
(chorus)
What dish do you fancy
Something we have or you brought along
Maybe turkey with gravy
Dilute with moonshine… we all belong

It’s coming through true
From the soul impart
The “thank you” you are do!

With a little stammer
“Take this hammer,”
He said,
“And, hit it with a hammer!”
Hit it with a hammer?
I didn’t understand the detail:
Nail the nail
I thought I was it
Bam! Impale
Hit it with a hammer
Like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer
It’s hard for me to feel the appeal
Where’s the glamour
… hit it with a hammer?
He did deliver
A screwdriver
Am I a believer?
Some how I misconstrued
Screw the screw
Now I’m screwed
Hit it with a hammer
“Hit the nail on the head”
Wish he would have said

This is intended to be a jam
Happening just right around the bend
In the very near future
Chances are large by the time you hear this
Unless you are light years away
And it takes more than a day
This is a jam in the key of the blues
A little improv. jam bordering on jazz?
Whoa! I don’t want to blow smoke up your ass
This ain’t no jazz
Just a lil’ improv. in the key of the blues
Now wouldn’t it be a real sin
TO throw a little Latin in
And what the heck
You might even say it’s a little Gaelic
Druid… fluent in fluid Druid
Wait! I though you said this is in the key of the blues?
Yes, it could be a sin to throw too much Latin in
I woke up this morning, and I got out of bed
And had to shake my head
I woke up this morning and got out of bed
(Which isn’t that unusual… not until I checked my head)
Then I said, what’s going on?
I gotta get my blues jam on
Get it on all day long
’nuff said
[the guitar does the talking]
Whoa! Playing the blues all morning
Into the evening
Working the blues
(I said,
I just can’t get that song out of my head)
The blues isn’t something
You can do in passing
No, no! Ya got to do it with some passion
You’ve got to do with your heart and soul
You know that takes its toll
[guitar talks with soul]
Careful you might catch the blues
The blues flues
Is going around
The blues flu
Coming through
Could effect you
It’s alright to get up and dance some, too
Shake those blues
At the end of the day
When there’s nothing to do you can say
… just couldn’t shake the blues
All day paying my dues
And tomorrow
Imagine the sorrow
That’s really blue
Nothing I could do
The evening blues
Nothing I could do
You work all day paying your dues
The everyday blues… turned into the night… into broad daylight
Alright
Though it may be dark out there
The light shines in here
Let the light shine on you
Pass through you and turn blue
Then do all the good you can do

Can you teach your old dog a new trick
Get him to fetch
Or sit, sit, sit?
How about if you said
“Roll over. Play dead.”
Do you think it’ll take
If you ask him to shake?
He’ll bring you joy
He’s such a good boy
(As long as he is sleeping)
If not your dog, how about your kitty
Can you get her to sit up pretty
Or get her to stay
As you walk away?
Or get her to come
So you can pet her some?
She’s your heart’s pearl
Oh, such a good girl
(As long as she’s sleeping)
Oh no… is her eye peeping?

You mean it doesn’t have to be so complicated
… as simple as that?
Here’s a list:
Does space exist?
Is the thought odd
Of sensing God?
Then how on Earth… or above…
Can I say, “God is love”?
… as simple as that?
You mean it doesn’t have to be so complicated
… as simple as that?
Imagine this…
Add it to the list:
Frictionless
You’re in space and just like that — SNAP!
Your tether goes snap
My suggestion:
Stick with friction
Friction saves your life every time it rains
Without friction the rain would go right through our brains!
Thus, avoid frictionless
… as simple as that?
You mean it doesn’t have to be so complicated
… as simple as that?

At first we started wondering why
The earth had become so dry
Jilted, wilted, parched and cracked
Not a drop of water as a matter of fact
Maybe we spoke to soon
Here comes a massive monsoon
Prepare to take a ride
On the mountain’s mudslide
This weather is as volatile
As a cross-eyed crocodile
Don’t mistake the rile
For a smile
Mother Nature going insane
Another psychopathic hurricane
I am whipped, beatin’ and slammed
Don’t know if I’m going home?

Do you feel we’re overdue
For a lovely rendezvous
A close encounter

Please embrace her!

Conductor! Conductor!
Check your vector
(check and a re-check check)
We’re on a runaway symphony
It’s easy to see
And I do say
Alert the engine-ear
Right hear!
Right now!
Wow!
Try to cut loose
The caboose
Chasing this train in vain
’cause Conductor, I checked and re-checked our vector
Why chase the train in vain
Off the tracks
No come-backs
This train is runaway
Wouldn’t you say?
On a runaway symphony
Better alert the engine-ear
Ya better stand clear
It’s out-of-control… we’re all… out-of-control
In fact, Conductor,
It’s sounding more and more
Like Rock n’ Roll
… ain’t that classical at all
The End of the line is a mighty fine line
They say you don’t want to cross
This ain’t no coin toss
They say you don’t want to take any chances
’cause there are no seconds
Minutes, days, years
No more tears…
No more joys…
No more noise
No, no more more
No, no train will remain

Down the slide
Another ride
And why not
… to the top!
Look around
Slide back down
Merry-go-round
Circles found
A life’s cycle
Turn around
And rebound
Just how far
On monkey bars
A bizarre
Among the stars
Reach The End
Do it again
Be quite sure
Of the metaphor
The playground
We have found
Is the instance
Of existence

Causing quite a stink?!?!?!
What do you want

Christmas Candle Light
LYRICS
There’s a way
A cold day
Gets the season
Underway
Then, the glow
Sunshine in the window
Participant in the radiant
With warmth, come to know
The leaves left
Leaving in the light
Shadow’s theft
Looming is the night
Afterglow
Lighting candles in a row
Participant in the radiant
With warmth come to know
If time must transpire
Might as well, light a fire
Participants in the radiance
If time must transpire
By the light of the fire
By a candle light’s glow
With warmth come to know

The candle is burning
As our hearts are yearning
From both ends
Godspeed to learning
Combine with some smiling
The spirit mends
Three kings ace high
Take a sign from the sky
And stop on by
To find out why
The shepherds’ herd
Heard angels on high
Take the sign to answer why
Survival of the fittest
The human race’s race quest
Hard to digest
Self-preservation
Situation frustration
Really for the best…
Is it really for the best?
Three kings ace high
Take a sign from the sky
And stop on by
To find out why

Heard angels on high
Take the sign to answer why

It seems as though the seems
Are splitting
At the seems
Try not forgetting
The seems
In through the cracks
Slip the dreams
Fronts from backs
So it seems
Goes the seams
In through the split
Slips the light
Overshadows “it” —
The dark of night
Out-of-sight
Inside out
Victorious bout
Light wins the fight
So it seems
Goes the seams
It seems as though the seams
Are ripping at the seems
Keep on letting
The seems
Come to light
On the dreams

Keep going ’round ’til it’s found
I’ve stopped
Though not on top
I’ll still be spinning 6′ down
(In the ground)
You bet
A slightly shorter
Trip
But the orbit
Hasn’t changed a bit
The daily trip
Shorter a bit
The annual orbit
Same ole’ habit
Going ’round
Just 6′ down
So when I die
If you’d try
When I die…
If you might
A satellite
Would be out-of-sight
Stardust to stardust
(Or BUST!)

LYRICS
So, this is what we’re waiting for
This moment and not a moment more
Are you really, really
Are you really, really
Sure?
And the sky’s a lovely hue of blue
With the sun reflecting the light that’s you (all of you)
All is clear the here is now
All is here it’s clear it’s now
Anticipate it’s well worth the wait
A vacuum in space void of hate
Are you really, really
Are you really, ready
Participate
An excursion in immersion flow in’
Fill with still yet know in’ move in’
Are you really, really
Are you really, ready
To join in’

With that silver bullet… POW!
We need you more than ever right now
And crown our ‘hood

Seein’ from see to shining see

Being from be to shining being

It’s sounding very serious
Are you slightest bit curious
’cause it’s sounding very, very, very serious
Are you nervous
For us?
What’s the purpose
Of all this fuss
What’s the purpose
For all of us
Cause distress
Implied chaos
Disastrous
God, save us!
So serious
Are you curious
Are you nervous
For us?

All that runnin’ round
Gonna let it get you down?
Pouting lips resound
Perpetuating frown
Turn around
Take it from an old man
Better smile while you can
Sooner of later our days will end
It’s all a matter of what we do ’til then
Don’t let runnin’ round get you down
Give your mouth’s corners a lift
Turning the frown upside down
As you give you receive the gift
Giving corners the lift

Hello is anybody in here
Hello is anybody out there
Hello is anybody here
Hello is anybody near
Hello is anybody here
Is there any light in sight
Is there any light insight
At the end of the tunnel
Is there any insight into the light
At the end of the tunnel
At the end of the tunnel
Is it the beginning of the light
Is the end the beginning… is that right
Have I got that right
Beginning of the light
Light insight

You’re good as gold
Or so I’m told
When your life’s goal
Is growin’ old
When going down the road
If you lighten your load
The toll of the total
Is less brutal
As a matter of fact
You can’t get it back
And, there’s really nothing that you lack
When you reach your golden years
Are you past your friggin’ fears
Are you able to forget
Skeletons in your closet
Are there no more tears
Not a regret
Is your last chapter…
Happily ever-after

If our paths don’t cross
Is there any loss
Or just as well?
Do tell… pray tell
Maybe you can find your happy place
Far, far, far-out in space
Maybe there’s enough room
To harbor your gloom?
If you go your own way
Maybe that’s O.K.
Another day
Together play
Take your marbles and go home
Face your problems all alone
When your back in the zone
Feel free to pick up the phone

Feed me some line
And, let me swim
Ready to be free
Again
(Let me swim)
Look,
Let me off this hook
I want to be “really” free
So, please help me
Won’t you please help me?
For the next stage
Enlarge the cage
Oh, believe me
Ready to be free
A whole new page
Out of this cage
I want to be “really” free
So, please help me
Where is the sign
“Free All The Time”
Wish I had known
I could have grown
Free all the time
It’s a state of mind
To thyself as to others… be kind
As others to you, too… be kind

Are you a fairy princess?
Then, this “this”
Is our bliss
Do you believe in music?

Are you our knight in shining armor
Then, this is our bliss
Thus, this bliss is for us
This bliss
Music can cure the sick

When doing your best
Is put to the test
Time to put baby to rest
Prime time
Yes — baby to rest
They say
Don’t ever wake a sleeping baby
No — not maybe
But, I digress
Let’s do our best
To get out of this mess
Get it off our chest
Puttin’ baby to rest
Put the baby to rest

We’re on our way
Throw the dice
Move on advice
Will you pass go
I don’t know
Sure hope so
They’re at it again
Returned to begin

Playin’ the game
Won’t be the same
Satisfaction
In competition
Get past the start
Next square… depart
With all your heart
They’re at it again
Returned to begin
The End

What is on your Christmas wish list?
Merry Christmas
Let’s grant your wish
You can do anything you want to do
And, I’ll help you (I’ll do all I can do)
Would you like to give a hand
To your fellow man?
You can!
Would you like to join the band
I’m your man
You can!
Merry Christmas
Let’s grant your wish
You can do anything you want to do
And, I’ll help you (I’ll do all I can do)
Would you like to rehabilitate
Our habitat
I’m up for that
Would you like to join the band
I’m your man
You can!
Sound the alarm
Get up in arms
At least
We can all bear peace
May music sooth our souls
Before the bell tolls

Does your wealth
Cause foot in mouth
Mental health
Heading south
As the irony comes to me
Fosters faith in humanity
Does your fame
Cause misfortune
Brain gone lame
Heart out of tune
As the irony comes to me
Fosters faith in humanity
Poison lace
Poison pill
Fall from grace
Your worst ill?
As the irony comes to me
Fosters faith in humanity
Quite a task
For you to ask
Forgiveness
At a time like this
First confess
Then, comes bliss
As the irony comes to me
Fosters faith in humanity

Is it #2
I’m asking you
’cause I’ve got no clue
Ave Maria
No idea
What’s going on
Crack of dawn
Dawned on me
Wish I could see
What’s going on?!?!?!
I have no idea
What’s you’re doin’
Am I up front
Or your back door man?
Day of the month
No, needn’t fear
Reinforcements from the rear!

That’s who I am
If you assume wolf’s costume
Then it may accrue you
To think… and think, again
Little lamb…
That who you are?
I wouldn’t go so far
As to mock God’s flock
So please…
Think and think, again
Have you heard
The lamb’s shepherd
To the light
Keeping watch over night

Thank you and thanks again

As the leaves fall
It’s not that surprising at all
Another year around the sun
Is almost done
By the time we get there
The trees will be bare
Then, they say
It’s due
To start anew
The way the Earth is built
There’s a change to our tilt
The days grow shorter and shorter still
Until it starts to spill
Through the solstice
With all of us

Went from very exciting
Into freakishly frightening
Are you aware
Run out of there
Do you call this fun?
Run! Run! Run!
Under the gun
Run! Run! Run!
Coming undone
Run! Run! Run!
Are you aware
Better get out of there
Went from really thrilling
To nail nail-biting bone-chilling
Are you aware
Run out of there
Went from a tense situation
Into utter devastation
Are you aware
Run out of there
Went from a goofy spooky
To being cursed unlucky
Are you aware
Run out of there

Three little pigs and their tales/tails
Little triumphs and epic fails
One of the pigs
Built his house of twigs
When the wolf came around
He blew it down
But, I will not let you in
Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin
Yes, I will call your bluff
Go ahead and huff and puff
Another pig
For his britches too big
When that wolf came around
He blew ’em down
Now, this little pig
Learned to dig, dig, dig
And, when you’re down below
Don’t care how much you blow

Candy floss clouds
Overshadow the crowds
Though no one seems to take note
Like ants wearing pants
Oblivious to us
Living their life in the rote
Though no one seems to take note
Living their life in the rote
Their faces looking down
Their faces to the ground
No leaders to be found
Just followers all around
No one seems to notice
The erroneous
Or the luscious us
Does anybody see
The good, the bad, the ugly
Are we all blind to being kind
Does any body care
To give, to live, to share
Have we all our friggin’ mind?

Overheard
Blue Jay, Blackbird
When Red Tail sets sail
You know
The crow squawk
At the sight of a hawk
You know
A murder of crow
Raptor rapture
It’s the real deal
When the Blue Jay squeal
Children — the meal
Next on the menu
Could be you
Though it may sound absurd
I overheard
The word of the bird
The fight of flight
The scrambling of eggs
Tender chicken legs
Birds of a feather
Flock together

]]>Started off as a normal score
1, 2, 3
As I waited patiently…
4’s no more?
The guy on the drum
Wants to know “how come?”
Throwing the bass off base
Rhythm guitar hasn’t gotten that far
For those who dance, why take a chance?
Really?
Is it a waltz for polka dolts
At some traditional ball
Um, a… samba, foxtrot… I think not
Missed a beat. Admit defeat.
Really

When you wake-up in the morning
Does it leave your heart yearning
Of could of what you should?
Suddenly get cold feet
When face-to-face with death
Is your life defeat
Has it depth or breadth?
And, does it make you feel good
Can you get to sleep in the evening
Does it leave your brain burning
Of should of what you could
Shuddering disbelief
Swallowing grief
Once we’re born
Will we ever learn
