Our Father,
Which art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On Earth as it is in Heaven
Give us this day our daily distraction
And help us work together
And not fight
In your garden paradise
Forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the Kingdom
And the power and the glory
Forever and ever
ever and ever
ever and ever
Amen
The lord is my shepherd
I shall not want
he maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside still waters
He restoreth my soul
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear evil: for thou art with me
Whichever happens after this
If it's darkness
or eternal bliss
I trust that you'll guide us
And show us the right way
And until that day
Until that day
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever

On the way back home
From the Chinese restaurant
We stopped in to a little corner bar
A few drinks later
I start to slur and there you are
Leaning up against the wall
Those neon signs and the passing cars
You said, 'I don't feel like pictures'
I said in a blur, in a blur
"But the way the light falls, dear
Be still the Moon and the stars
Let me save this moment
To remember the way you were"
Just then
The sky had fallen
Blazing like a thousand suns
Fire, crashes, sirens, smoke
And we had to run
After about half a mile
You slowed down to a stop
I turned around
To savor the view
You asked, 'what is it now?!'
I said, 'The way the light falls, dear
You move me, body and soul
After this is over,
We'll have to take another stroll'
What's that
Oh no
And the aliens are here
And their tractor beam draws near
Don't panic so soon
It's a balloon
But the way the light falls, dear
Be still the Sun and the Moon
Let me save this moment
Before there's a typhoon
You got back up and caught your breath
You made your point with out a single word
I stepped back
Took out my camera
Clicked a few shots
Oh well

Did you leave the light on
I'm sure it wasn't me
Why're you getting angry
Have your senses taken leave
Your brain is like a pinball
And I've got a quarter in the machine
I can have you sectioned
Before you count to three
Count to three
Don't tempt me
Walking through the forest
Last hot day in fall
Where was I the other night
Can't say that I recall
How dare you ask me questions
Don't you cause a scene
Got you acting crazy
Yet still I'm so serene
So serene
That's my sorcery
I pull the strings

Any way I say it
It's the wrong way
For people you don't like:
Open the bomb bays
You'll hurt someone
If there's money to be made
When I testify in court
You say it's hearsay
Yeah, but anyways
When you buy a first class ticket
Get treated like a stowaway
The waiter brings you bisque
But you ordered consumme!
...You couldn't tell a Shiraz
From a Cabernet
Money can't buy you taste
Just cliches
Yeah but anyways
Going down the road to Mexico
With my old trusty SAAB
Looking at the shoulder
See you on the side
There's a white cloud of smoke
Coming out your Rolls
Looking rather glum
Sticking out your thumb
Now you're on my side
When you want a ride
Where you want to go?
Turn up my radio
Yeah but anyways

Heavy is the Crown
05:52

He thought someday
It would all make sense
That he could relax
In the present tense
He thought his ship
Would sail to shore
But it's lost at sea
Forevermore
He thought he'd stand
In the king's court
Giving counsel
Reciting law
The jester's
Rolling on the floor
The sentries point him
With swords to the door
He said
"Unhand me
There's nothing
You plebs need to defend
There must be
Some misunderstanding
Let me
Back in again"
He came back
With 40 men
The fool wants to take revenge
They cut down the night watch
And killed the king
While he slept
He reached down
To pick up the king's crown
Ambition makes a fool of a man
But he has to take his chances
While he can
And he said
"Heavy is the crown
What in the world
Have I done?
Now there's an angry mob
Waiting for me and you"

Rightly In The Wrong

So, you say you can't go on
You feel you don't belong
And society's a bore...fine
You are rightly in the wrong
When the world is this far gone
You don't owe anyone
For the right
To be alive
The fear you fight
Is just out of your sight
You have
To heal
The part
That they want to steal
Then you won't be bothered
By the silly New World Order
And you can live your life the way you like
Cause karma comes in many forms
And they know what is waiting for them
Get up
Dust off
Give it all you got
They used to say 'All you need is love'
You know that they're right
When you have it, 'Baby you're a rich man'
...I guess your record skipped on that side
And round and round and round you go
The fear you fight is only in your mind
We're here to find the tunnel in the light

Girl, you've been gone for so very very long
Glad you didn't find me
When I think of you
I sing a little song
Army Of Me [Bjork]
I knew it had gone sour
When you'd kick and scream and pout
And insult me when I held the door
I'm letting you know
When you demand
To fall under stride
I won't
Girl, you were high and so very very low
When you found me
First you were shy
Buried in yourself
Out came the harpy
Then you went out with other guys
6 ways to Sunday
I stayed at our home
Thinking of a plan
To make you happy
It had to stop
Ready or not
Once there were two
Now I'm all by myself
And when we were together
I thought it would never end
A solid bond to sever
A promise to amend
What will kill us off,
The virus or the bomb?
I couldn't care at all
at all
Bless your heart
Bless your Soul
Bless your heart
I wish I would have known
Girl, you were high and so very very low
When you found me
First you were shy
Buried in yourself
Out came the harpy
I was out on the street
Without a thing to do
But I'm glad I left
Your stupid ass alone

mmm, so artsy

There are so many people
Lost in the world
Trying hard to do
What someone told them to do
When they find out they've got nothing to lose
They'll come unglued
Like me and you
Mmm, so artsy baby
All in leather and dancing mean
Not going to cause no trouble
Just want to be a hipster in your scene
Saw you with a typewriter in the park
You were clicking out fan fiction after dark
While rocking a tank top and a scarf
In early March
Sipping a chagga tea with whipped cream
I want to
Buy all your paintings
Of Star Wars characters
And
Kittens in dumpsters
Cubist fruit
And the like
For you I'd quit my law firm
Sell my mansion
Trade my Porsche for a Vespa
Give up meat and be a vegan again
Probably not
Still there are so many people
Out in the world
Paying their dues
Cause they don't have a clue
When they find out they had
Choices to choose
They'll conclude they've been used
Then they stand bewildered
Waiting for more orders to fill
But they don't see
Their chains have all been cast off
Then you tell them to underground
They don't understand
What you're on about
For them to loosen up
It's Birkenstocks with black socks
Come on
Walking into the Goodwill store
And you're there
Talking to your friends
Without a care
I photobombed your Polaroid selfie
Cause damn the way it seems
Want us to be the picture in the meme

Prayer from the Darkness
03:12

Racing up the cobblestone stairs
Incense hanging in the air
Witching hour come too fast
Locked out of the midnight mass
Damned if I do
And damned if I don't
The wind's picking up
Chilled to the bone
Guess I'll kneel down here on the grass
Clasp my hands and do as you ask
But what good is my
Prayer from the darkness?
All of my life I tried to do right
Biding my time alone
The demons outside, they claw and they fight
Dragging me down to hell
But I always knew that there was good in this world
I wasn't strong, all but lost hope
Then I laid eyes on you
Can't you see that I'm a prisoner here?
Only you can open the door
You're the answer to my
Prayer from the darkness
Oh Lord, please hear my words
All I want is to be with her
And her easy smile and sundrenched hair
A mind that would make Einstein scared
She helps people fight their fear
With kind words and a sympathetic ear
She seems nice on the outside...
I was just hypnotized
Should lightning bolts
Strike through my heart
I wouldn't be surprised with my
Prayer from the darkness

You can put on your prettiest face
And hide from the world today
Or you can shapeshift for them, baby
It doesn't matter, either way
Reptilian girl
I don't care what you do
I just love the wisdom in you
The other night while taking out the trash
Walking from the car
You turned scaly and green in a flash
Since then I'm feeling the changes in me
Pretty baby
There's something you don't want us to see
But I'm telling you it's all ok
Reach to me psychically
You can play all your mind control games
To try to keep people from running away
Or you can be honest with them, baby
There's no shame
In showing some pain
Reptilian girl
You've got some interesting moves
But I like it when you feel your groove
Don't want no cricket burgers
It's not really my thing
At least we both love Chik-Fil-A
I know we are from different worlds
...Now for the ground rules
Here, you can do whatever you want
Just don't hurt anyone
