WARNING SIGN
As I lie, thinking it over
How I need to keep holding on to you
As I try to understand clearly
How I make myself really hold on to you
I've got to dream on, I see the end coming
I feel like you're running away from me
It's just to keep on, keep playing the hunches
Realizing how much I can't let you go free
As I smile, I will keep making fences
I can see my defenses are setting a trap
In a while, I am lost in confusion
Held up by illusion that there is no gap
We've got to dream on, pretending we're loving
Rehearsing and shoving just to get our way
We've got to play on, silhouetting the feeling
we're hiding the meaning till a better day
I see you scared, I see you crying
You try to talk, but I think you're lying
You say I'm mean, take me out of context
You say you love, but what you want is sex
You're all tied up, you don't know your mind
You keep me away, give out the warning sign
I can't come close, you're off in the clouds
You plan your future, forgetting about now
Now I sigh, believing it's over
Hoping no one will ever know how I tried
In my mind, to find the solution
Without retribution to keep us alive
I've got to dream on, I'm hoping in magic
Avoiding the tragic that stays with me
Dream on, my fantasy kills me
I'm looking for thrills instead of at me

YOU ARE THE TIME
I walk the streets in evening, I am alone
I find myself remembering, of my home
I see the children playing
I see the people praying
I hear the voices saying, you are the time
I feel the world inside me, with all its wrong
I feel the pain that wants to, be released and gone
It's the sun and moon embracing
It's the fire below erupting
It's the end of all your striving
This time is you and you are the time
Words, when they are spoken
Remain and never get broken
They fly into the open
Become perpetual motion
I watch the faces passing, I see myself
I see the hope and longing, for love and wealth
It's the story in the making
It's the song about awakening
Keep the beast that needs the taming
This time is you and you are the time
I walk the streets in evening, I am alone
I find myself remembering, of my home
I see the children playing
I see the people praying
I hear the voices saying, you are the time

RESTAURANT
I'm in a posh, crowded restaurant with a friend. We notice two beautiful women
sitting at a small table, opposite each other - white tablecloth, bent chrome
and wood/wicker chairs. White atmosphere. Flowers and modern paintings. They
finish and leave the restaurant.
We go over to their table, sit down, and we discover their unpaid check. I
do nothing, but my friend takes it to the cashier and pays it. The women,
however, come back for the check and are thrilled with discovering my friend's
having paid it without knowing them or expecting anything in return. They
become quite warm for that reason and make a big fuss over him.
Then, I'm standing in front of one of the women, and I can feel her body.
The back of my hand is pressed into her thigh near her cunt, and I feel the
exquisite lushness of her dress, the silkiness of her undergarments, and the
softness of her leg. She doesn't seem to mind. I reach around and grab her
ass with both hands - it feels luscious. My friend and I become completely
involved with our women and unaware of each other. I don't know who this woman
is. She remains passive.
Lover, where have you been?
I need to see you again
Lover, where have you been?

NOT ENOUGH
I've been searching, cause I've been hurting
I've been ruled by the force of evil
It keeps me struggling, keeps me staying away
But I've been learning to talk more kindly
I've been moved by the force of goodness
It keeps me able, keeps me grateful instead
It's not enough that I should care,
not enough that beware
It's not enough that should see,
not enough that I believe
I've been reaching from the darkness
I was caught by the force of evil
It keeps me lonely, keeps me only abused
Now I'm feeling, but I'm still needing
I've been called by the force of goodness
It feels inspired, but I'm still tired and worn
It's not enough to turn from fear,
not enough to have her near
It's not enough to be the one,
not enough to have her love
I've been looking to find my lover
I've been trapped by the force of evil
I think she's waiting, to fill my craving for love
But I've not found her, I'm not around her
I have turned to the force of goodness
To make me better, until I get her for real

ORDINARY MOOD
You're right, to lie, to lie, to hide
React, and run, and run, and run
Wrong, it's wrong, so wrong, too wrong
Sit, sit down, and down, and down
Ordinary Mood
No time, to take, relate, frustrate
Find, again, again, again
Try to kill, to fight, to die
Silent shout, inside, inside
Ordinary Mood
Kind, you're kind, so kind, to me
Late, you're late, too late, for me
It's not so bad, so bad, so bad
Break, break up, and up, and up
Ordinary Mood
So try, again, again, again
Sort it out, devout, devour
Tired, I'm tired, so tired, I tried
Sit, sit down, and down, and down
