Proximity 05:00
The night was starting out quite right Among the sound and light Until at once i caught your eye Your mind locked with mine A love potion couldn’t be this strong I was yours all along I’m drawn toward your face Between the darkened space In the proximity of your voice I get near you I could never figure out I don’t know what it’s all about And science couldn’t see What you’ve been doing to me Your voice is like a drug My private irresistible tug Whatever you want of me I follow and you lead

It’s the calm before the storm which I think I fear the most Every one of my selves has gone out to play while I just play the host There’s so much to do and so much to say and so many people to be But just how much of the promised land will I get to see? Every time I get the confidence to maybe be a success I reel myself back into myself and so I settle for less People would say I’m scared of the world everyone knows who I am I’ve conquered all the media on every talk show just because I can My shiny plastered makeup face is painted on the wall A giant egotistical framework standing ten stories tall But soon I come crashing down like fads trends and all And then what’s left of my success as I gaze through the hole in the wall I want the money but I don’t want the taxes I want recognition but I don’t want the autographs I want super stardom but I don’t want the stalking freaks I want success but I really don’t

Dated Sunset 03:46
Branches of green – A beautiful scene Grass forever – Never stop it never I’ve seen the people – Tourists all I’ve seen them wander – Wander in fall Bathe in leaves – Cleanse in light Warm me in spring – Move to fight Stay it here – Until I die Pray for it here – I almost cry Dated Sunset – It’s here Branches of concrete – Crossing the land Covering hiding – Nature’s hand Lone tree in ground – Roots in chalk People walk around – On brick and walk Never see the world – As it should be Very far removed – From earth and tree I don’t care if it’s chic – Cool or suave I fight for the trees – There’s no other way It doesn’t have to be...

Everyone has a special place a place where you don’t go It’s the darkest part that lies deep in your heart or whatever they say so The irresistible pull to be one of the crowd to fit in and melt into That warmest place that sparkling face you wanna go? Yeah, me too Slither down the millennium fish knows where you should go Century town where you get your wish so come in and watch the show Slither down the millennium fish knows where you should go Century town where you get your wish so come in and be the show Say you’re inside where the fuzzy joy and the deepest wrath make love Where everything’s clear and there is no doubt of what you’re a part of Your head is clear and your purpose sharp there’s no fear in your mind So look into the eyes of the millennium fish there’s no telling what you will find

I Understand 05:14
Your eyes are red and blurry your throat is hard and dry You’re feeling better about it as every day goes by Drown yourself in spirits to hide below the tears Can never come up for air can never meet your fears You kid yourself about it that everything’s alright But you know your hell is out there the rest of your life I understand how it has to be I understand how it needs to be I understand how you want it to be Right back in your life It never was your plan as far as you can see Despite all the good teachings it simply had to be Impulse holds your actions temper holds your life For all the lonely moments made up for by the knife It’s the bargain of the year desires for the soul A good night’s sleep in comfort the impact takes its toll One life stops the timeline another is set free But who is left the wiser and who the fool to see

Every day is another me unlike the day before And I couldn’t tell you the me tomorrow has in store Another day another me a chance to move on And I’ve got to get to another me before today is gone If I feel like I don’t want to feel for no good reason I step outside myself into the conduit of seasons Walk into the light where another me is waiting And the man I once was behind is fading The conduit of seasons My mood changes like the seasons the earth moves around And I’m always glad to meet the new me today I have found I’m light I’m dark a fire a spark what will tomorrow bring I’m just not sure of all the world except for just one thing
