Because this
after all
is what it's for
to transcend
vastness
and upend
in your eye
reason has no place here
I been in my cell for years
wherever you go
I have been there
half alight
half alone
somebody take my hand
from looking sad
in the water
we let go cold
for this is what it is all for
to be whatever you are
but to not feel you are
and love in a stranger
like your self
undo the ties
that would peg yourself
restless love
i know you're in there
i do
come to my voice
and i will sing for you
for this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for
this is what it's for

an ambition that i had was to never think
and just to fall in grace of god
but i did not know god until i was 26
we hear we do we hear
and then we pass judgement
and we say things but nothing can be said
that does not require explaining further
explaining
26 years inside a vessel i thought would never die
and maybe it wont die but i do not know anymore
i've tried explaining but everything i know began 26 years ago
and i do not know if i knew a before
though i sometimes feel i remember choosing
so feel the raise in me and
tame your love
a tear for
my lingering heart
if i leave
nobody
heaven knows
you're going where the everything else goes
i wanna thank my friends for carrying me through thick and thin
i wanna thank my teacher for teaching me to carry the scissors with the handle pointed in
i wanna thank my mother for showing me that love is everything
i wanna thank my father for showing me that nothing is worth keeping in
relative to now i know it is all there is
relative of mine i know you are all that i have
and everyone you know
and everyone you know
and everyone you know
and everyone there is
and everyone
and everyone you know
and everyone you know
and everyone there is
and everyone there is
and is everyone you know
everyone you know
or do you know someone else?
i don't even know if i know myself
we're getting there friend
we're really getting there

I had a friend called Tom
but everything he was
to me was wrapped up in a time
that he lost
so I have not heard from Tom
and he has not heard from
I have not tried either
but Tom was pure energy
Tom was pure fearlessness
and Tom was also scared
he was my biggest competition
that is how I saw it then
I only owe everybody an apology
for I have passed for certain
when I am certain only I know nothing
I think he has brown eyes
I know he has Polish blood
he says that is why he is so hardworking
and he is in a famous band
man they never stop touring
he has Midura's mask tattooed on his chest
that Ceridwen designed
I don't want to stab him with a needle of remembering
but she's got a new guy

Someone you love

To the rest of your life you are headed
to the rest of your sun and sky
you will be enraptured and restless
you will sleep and have restless nights
you may go to Dublin
you may go to the airport
you may go across the ocean
you may go to Dubai
but you will never be where you were last night
Telephone is ringing babe
pick it up
there is an answer you know you'd give yourself
when you ask 'what's up?'
you and I are gonna work it out
you and I are gonna be best friends
you and I are gonna go to the end
you and I are gonna work it out
you and I have only now
you and I should just get up
you and I should just get up
you and I should just get up
and go outside
or go hug someone you love
or find a mirror
and remind yourself
there is only one thing to love
