Exposing our privates

It’s not just a case of yes and no

The slightest thing was the biggest blow

And there’s a time of understanding

A time when everything is right

A knife in the back from a dead one

Brings tears to my eyes

The fact that it matters

Is hard to visualise

You rattle the cage that traps you

Because it’s not just fun and games

And if you think the world’s a nice place

You’ve got a lot to learn

But you can’t just blame

You have to take some to

It’s time for action

Don’t want to loose this one too

Change the face

The old one doesn’t fit

Change the brain

Might help a bit

Things have to be diferent

Or they’ll alway have been like this

That self-centred sweetness turns everything sour

And in my mind I can see the answer

The path of righteousness

Got to clear you from my mind

And work out what’s right

Indefinate article

Floating harmfully by

And the question hangs

Full of problems

And there are so many answers

But none of them seem to fit

How can you profit from the situation?

Just play the game a bit

And the world should tell you

The way is clear

Do what your mind says

Even if you have no idea

And that’s the answer

That’s the only answer

Look and see

Eat and taste

Look and see

Think and know

Challenge your feelings

Fuel for your birth

Here is your life

Look at your death

Ask who you are

From what you are made

From where it all came

To where it all goes

Look until blinded

Eat until sick

Breathe until gasping

Look for real truth

Think

Proposition your soul with questions.

You could be forgiven for thinking

That time is on my side

That the thoughts I hoped to find

Are anywhere near

People just don’t react to me that way

I’d go so far as to say

That this hopeless tribe

Will get to me in the end

Will you show me the door to an understanding?

Or will you rip it off its hinges

And leave me gaping at the hole

That exists in my life?

You perhaps have forgotten what it’s like

Three years is a long time

It’s not my place to intrude

If you don’t want me to

Fall away

Night after day

Fall away

It’s all my hopes ever do

She’s just not there

She captures an eye

Time races me

It waits like my breath

Until the end of my life

Memory, like a half heard melody

No notes, only harmony

Fill my soul

Force me aside

Stagnation seeps in

Sweeps my mind

I am but an echo

Of a long abandoned life

I suggest my mind to you

And you laugh

And the gravest thought hit me

With their fullest force

Building the patterns

Come the harsh steel rain

Will I ever be again

Alive?

The night will be other’s

My hopes deleted

A tear stain of the pages

Written once to me

Haste not knowledge

Words not speed

Help and insanity

They are all things I need

Process of exploration

The findings exicte you

Have you something new

To ridicule me by?

Did I hear

Or was I listening?

In time

It will pass I suppose.

I hear the voice

From distant shores

The distant voice

Must be yours

Why then I hear

Unfamiliar tones?

Stranger sounds

Shake my bones

Something new

Within your head

Worried reply

To what I said

A subtle change

Sends me down

Why so far away

You’ve left my town

You remember my number

You recall my name

But your callous reply

Remains not the same

On this tide of time

You’re floating away

Was it really you

I spoke to today?

Do I know just a one

Of a Jekyll and Hide?

Is a stranger

Hiding inside?

Does she come out

When she goes away?

Perhaps it is one

I spoke to today?

But the one thing

Which scares me

The one most of all

Starts here with me

Awaiting my fall

I think that you know me

I gave me to you

I opened the door

So you could see through

I fear you’ve forgotten

Inside what is there

When I ask you to tell me

You simply stare

Perhaps you look in

But open no eyes

A tone in your voice

You cannot disguise.

No,

Well, okay

Yes

Well, not today

The contradiction is in the eating

Maybe

Of course I can’t

Can’t say

From the heart

The certainly is quite fleeting

Playing

I am today

Music

Good sound I say

Be sure to clap at the end of this meeting.
