40 Miles

we're 40 miles away
the engine meets the heat of pavement
burning up in space
the ripples of the air are shimmering
reaction from above
the stratosphere burns light to blue
I'm listening for hours
trying to hear the still small voices
Lean on me
waste my time
I don't mind
40 miles away
I don't mind
In case that you're in love\
we'll ride the rope out
and we'll let go
and drop in from above
into the coolness of your soul
we're such a ways from shore
it seems ok to just dissolve
and drift so far away
evaporation
psyche
one entity.
Lean on me
waste my time
I don't mind
40 miles away
I don't mind
the testing and the truth
the malady of indecision
connection trimmed in lace
distilling the elixir of empathy
we're all so far from home
so tied up in the symbols we see
in fact we're not alone
to reach out for a hand to hold
Lean on me
waste my time
I don't mind
40 miles away
I don't mind

pack up all your dreams
cuz we're moving today
pack up everything
cuz we ain't gonna stay
why do we move around so fast
i got no home i got no past.
I can't make friends they never last
pack up all your things
cuz we're moving today
tell your friends goodbye
this you must understand
I feel uneasy when you're gone'
I cannot reason when you're gone
I feel like dying when you're gone
I will protect you when the dreams come
pack up all your things
cuz we're leaving today
don't say a word, don't cry
this you must understand
I feel uneasy when you're gone'
I cannot reason when you're gone
I feel like dying when you're gone
I will protect you when the dreams come

telescope

just seen my life in a looking glass
some distant dreams come to me at last
if I could stand under the sky
If I could stand right under
all the stars out tonight
I wish that one would be bright
I think that I could use the change
no, it's not what it seems
just polished memories
and wishing things could be the same
some telescopic reality
light years of time flow under me
if I could stand under the sky
if I could stand right under
all the stars out tonight
I wish that one would be bright
I think that I could use the change
no, it's not what it seems
just polished memories
and wishing things could be the same

desert running

so you feel the power when the steamy summer breezes blow?
do you realize how suddenly your life could be
a desert running through your open mind?
you're pressing self-destruction in a lifeless world
you're all alone
the heat outside now is a cauldron like my icy dreams
the thoughts I have are like the windblown sand
Seems like I ain't got tears for weeping
It's so much worse now when I'm sleeping
It's never gonna rain
it's never gonna change
oh Lord send me a downpour
bring life into these plains
I can feel it all around me
I feel it in my veins
Oh Lord please let it change Lord
Oh Lord please let it rain
I feel so powerless the stinging of the windblown sand
communications long since gone my walls are weak,
the isolation pulls me to the night
I stand before an endless sea of dunes I cannot cross
can I escape of will I have to hold the desert back?
My resources are running low.
Seems like I ain't got tears for weeping
It's so much worse now when I'm sleeping
It's never gonna rain
it's never gonna change
oh Lord send me a downpour
bring life into these plains
I can feel it all around me
I feel it in my veins
Oh Lord please let it change
Oh Lord please let it rain
I need to break away, my world is getting covered up
I try to run now but I'm weak my legs won't move
sheer gravity holds me to the ground
in hesitation while my lungs are getting filled with dust
I am awake now in the coldest sweat I realize
the desert running through my open mind.
