who do I think I am?

See You In The Warm Light

I can't watch it happening
When I need you to the ceiling

But if you can't see
What I see
Then nothing change that

I can't know your suffering
When the hand that holds you down looks like me

I can't feel
What you feel
No one can say that

I must have one right cause
If I'm the thing that can keep you
In this space, in this space, in this space, in this space

In this space your power knows no god
It can take the pain, it can help you
Find you place, find your place, find your place, find your place

In the warm light, I watched you
Close your eyes and let it swallow you

No I can't see
What you see
Nothing can change that

I must have one right cause
If I'm the thing that can keep you
In this space, in this space, in this space, in this space

In this space your power knows no god
It can take the pain, it can help you
Find you place, find your place, find your place, find your place

I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light
I'll see you in warm light

In the warm light, I watched you
Close your eyes and let it swallow you
The fire dies, air is born
Air dies, water's born

Water

Gold mouth in my face
Asking me question like you don't know what you've done
Riding freedom in your blood

You put me down
I'm blooming from the neck up
It's alright to doubt
It is alright to doubt

Oh, I'm picking it up
Oh, I can't get enough

You've got a presence I can taste
In every city, baptized by you
And it's just like it was
Riding freedom in your blood

Oh, the sun is coming up
I have a white swallow for your burning tongue

But the truth ain't alive, are you?
You've got nothing to fight for truth

Keep your head out of the water
We're still a long way to dead

Waking up to Banda
I tried to touch his skin
It moves like a hummingbird
It is alright to doubt

Oh, the sun is coming up
I have a white swallow for your burning tongue

It's too hard to try just for you
Are you losing the fight so soon?

Keep your head out of the water
What you see is not ascension

Woah, there he goes
Heavy magic

It's not right to throw it on the fire and let it go
Recognize the heart that beats inside is solid gold
Give it time, healing is a rope for you to hold

Young minds
Wash it all away

Trees

Psychic connection, aloha
It's nice to find your friend

Body protector I know, I
See how high I am

I find many lies
Inside eyes
Freeing you mind (hey hey hey hey)
Changing lines
Feedback time
Beautiful machine
Destroyer, protector, the same

If I receive too many signals
(Vibrations all through the screens)
If it sees our face and acts like it knows us
(shooting through my eyes, the trees)
We can walk into this river
(In every direction and underneath)
Without being taken under
Taken under
Taken under
Taken under
Taken under
Taken under
Taken under
Taken under

I don't know who I
Wherever we just came from was so
Full of life
All in my mind

Open window eyes
If we let some out there will be
More room inside
To incinerate

Everything is beautiful machine
Wrapped inside a beautiful machine
Everything is beautiful machine
Wrapped inside a beautiful machine

Everything is beautiful machine
Wrapped inside a beautiful machine
Everything is beautiful machine
Wrapped inside a beautiful machine

I don't know who I
Wherever we just came from was so
Full of life
All in my mind

Open window eyes
If we let some out there will be
More room inside
To incinerate

Everything is beautiful machine
Wrapped inside a beautiful machine
Everything is beautiful machine
Wrapped inside a beautiful machine

White Tongues

Everybody's looking at the cause with white tongues
In that frame of mind

Everybody's too afraid to turn the lights on
In that frame of mind

Untying knots in the vine

No machine is terrified but it's speaking to me
I can see it in its eyes

It's not that it's objectified
It's suffering must be a sleeping state of mind

Don't watch it oscillate too much
Keep eyes on where it starts and stops
Confusion is a ghost now
I see it as a ghost now

Opening the body like a flower for no one
Does it feel alive?

Looking at it long enough to let it follow
To the other side

Animals are opening their eyes to two suns
Animals are opening their eyes to two suns
Everybody's looking at the cause with white tongues
Everybody's looking at the cause with white tongues

No machine is terrified but it's speaking to me
I can see it in its eyes

It's only trying to bend the light, not reasoning
But I still hold it like a child

Don't watch it oscillate too much
Keep eyes on where it starts and stops
Confusion is a ghost now
I see it as a ghost now

Hold out your hands
I see you as a shadow of kindness
I see it as a constant light turning

Look at your hands
Shining like the moon on the water
Water like the sky's open eye

Whispering

When your lumbering metaphor took off its clothes, I got goose flesh
When your lumbering metaphor took off its clothes, I got goose flesh

If you hear whispering
If you hear whispering
It's already dead

What do you want to be?
What do you want to be?
Is it with me?

What do you want to be?
What do you want to be?
Is it with me?

I put my ear to the ground
Listen to it sing
If you hear whispering
If you hear whispering
It's already dead

Long Shadow

The darkness faded to gray, then
Gray into rose then
Rose into white

Sighted, a slow-moving shape with
Hair like a halo
Or burning filament

This shadow is long
You can see it from space
And you can see it on my face
And it sustains its weight
Just close your eyes, wait
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

A huge mandala of tree limbs
A head for a hawkeye
A hawk for one night
Like Heather shearing in sheep's eyes
I love her like water
I love her like wine

This shadow is long
You can see it from space
And you can see it on my face
And it sustains its weight
Just close your eyes, wait
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

Over you

The Weather

When he sleeps he sleeps like a rock
Every night I'm fighting off dogs
The hardest part for us is living with our hands out
Hand over fist fist into mouth

Oh, I could
Oh, I could
When he sleeps he sleeps like a rock (Oh, I could)
Every night I'm fighting off dogs (Oh, I could)

Explode
I feel the weather in my bones
My bones

I guess I was I guess I was I was sitting by the river
(When he sleeps he sleeps like a rock)
And saw you dance to make these days, babe
(Every night I'm fighting off dogs)
The hardest part for us is when the dogs are sleeping
Hand over fist, head in hands weeping

Oh, I could
Oh, I could
When he sleeps he sleeps like a rock (Oh, I could)
Every night I'm fighting off dogs (Oh, I could)

Explode
I feel the weather in my bones
I could explode
I feel the weather in my bones
My bones

Red Sun

The red sun in her is my life
It comes when waves pound her heart on the rocks
One more time, one more time
From, from the heart, from the heart this time

Where am I
Release me,
Flex
Release me

I've been sent to hell, it's so bright
I can't do a thing without her, or sleep through the night
But you will help me find evidence
And make a good, good mind out of it
And I'll stop crying all the time
And lose the light in my eyes

Sutro Baths

In glass
In the dark
In the faintest light
I can see you moving

I think
Of the crows
At the Sutro baths
And the distance growing

In masks
In a streetcar
By the creeping red
I'll be dry enough to

Ignite
I need no water
I have a knife

Hold my aching heart
Goldenrod on fire
No no, no I don't feel love
I wanna get inside you

Oh when
I die
Bury me
By the Sutro baths

In fields
Of green
In the highest weeds
Where the birds are singing

Hold my aching heart
Goldenrod on fire
No no, no I don't feel love
I wanna get inside you

Where one warm CFL
Casts shadows on my neck
No no, no I don't look for love
It finds me when I
Need it

Open up your throat to my ghost
Now, can you see us? Can you?
Open up your throat to my ghost
Now, can you see us? Can you?

Hold my aching heart
Goldenrod on fire
No no, no I don't feel love
I wanna get inside you

Where one warm CFL
Casts shadows on my neck
No no, no I don't look for love
It finds me when I
Need it

Sara

Did you know
That there's a war on
It ebbs and flows

Did you know that you can hear it
If you listen close

When the moon is new it's hidden
And it's hard to hold

When the moon is full you see it
It waxes whole

Oh the shots off
Oh the chanting monks

Oh the shots off
Oh the howling dogs

(Sara is tearing down the walls with her mind hands)

Gold From Teeth

We have known the total bliss of ignorance
Now we lay on our backs naked before the machine

This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
Oh

We have mourned the loss of body, amen
Now we open our wounds in salt mines until we find

Gold from teeth, sometimes
With all our demons inside
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
Oh

The bravest of us had devised a cover up
Of the overwhelming evidence of what had been done
We wanted to tan this hide in the daylight
With logical insight, with logical insight
But all of our senses were washed in divine light
All of our senses were washed in divine light

This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
It's gold from teeth, sometimes
With all our demons inside
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
Oh

Workhorse

Think I could cry I think
I could cry I think that
This is the biggest sky
Oh, the biggest sky

Key on a string, on my
Neck you are with me my
Workhorse will eat tonight
Oh, will eat tonight

Hoof to ground
One thousand pounds
Hoof to ground
One thousand pounds

Light as a feather, yeah I'm
Stiff as a board and I'm
Floating in hands I am
Floating in hands I am
Light as a feather, yeah I'm
Stiff as a board and I'm
Floating in hands I am
Floating in hands I am

Hoof to ground
One thousand pounds
Hoof to ground
One thousand pounds
Hoof to ground
One thousand pounds
Hoof to ground

Aine

I will find you by your light
Oh you red giant
All these people, they are so dark
but, I see what's inside you, burning bright

Oh, your love, your love like heat
Like a warm summer breeze
Like deep, deep sleep
Like Aine, Aine, running, running through me
Oh

Te veo, amor
En hueso, en color
Perdoname amor
Sin sueldo, en vano, amor

Oh, your love, your love like heat
Like a warm summer breeze
Like deep, deep sleep
Like Aine, Aine, running, running through me

You're planets of diamonds
Highlighted wine/water ice in the rings of Saturn

You're planets of diamonds
Highlighted wine/water ice in the rings of Saturn

Oh, your love, your love like heat
Like a warm summer breeze
Like deep, deep sleep
Like Aine, Aine, running, running through me

Blood Orange

Woke up looking at jade in the window
Each arc of light was saying something
Self-taught you both been sleeping in a flower
Open, I hope you are

His hands and feet are lacerated always
The damage, damage done
Sumac, sumac, I know it he's a slow walker
Out back we burn Ave Helena

Woke up looking at jade in the window
Each arc of light was saying something
This flame is for my mother's father's mother
She burn white, burn white and blood orange

The Monolith

Magnolia blossoms in my eyes
And I can see you through these too, you should know that I
Truly love you your
Stones are moving your
Stones are moving oh

Run for your life, you were followed, I can
Help you understand this pain you feel but through
Chartreuse curtains, you're
Sleeping under, you're
Sleeping under it

If hell is real, then I am not
It's just a mirror in the dark

Body and blood

Dropped ceiling, cold-burning basement lights
Are flickering behind your
Eyelids I can
See them coming your
Doors are open your
Doors are open oh
Armies in chains on a speck of dust
Beautiful and so complex, a web of
Stuff and energy
Stars inside us the
Stars inside us, the

Temple of temple of rocks a
Temple of temple of rocks, it's not
Over yet it's not
Over yet it's not
Over yet it's not
Over yet, a
Temple of temple of rocks a
Temple of temple of rocks, it's not
Over yet it's not
Over yet it's not
Over yet it's not
Over yet

If hell is real, then I am not
It's just a mirror in the dark

Body and blood

Body and blood
You should know that I truly love you
Your stones are moving your
Stones are moving, oh

LUCA

Lay your body
Down in temple
But get no rest with that
God in your eyes

Or make your bed out
In the courtyard (garden)
Each morning wake up with
Sun in your eyes

With sun in your eyes X2

LUCA spins her
Cosmic cleaning
Our mother washing the
Dirt from our eyes

All time inside, one
Mind unbroken
Each morning wake up with
Sun in your eyes

With sun in your eyes X4

Everything is gonna be alright X4
You got the sun in your eyes

Everything is gonna be alright X4
You got the sun in your eyes

Don't Even think

I wanna meet he who writes your speeches
And at the back of his throat rests punk music
Extend a hand just to say I am grateful for it
Take my hand and you say, 'Don't think about it'

I wanna be like you when I'm older
Save the holier thoughts and a lonely daughter
Extend a hand just to say I know you did this
Stacked them coast to coast in the eye of the misfit

And I don't think about it X3
I don't even think

I wanna be one to hold your head in the creek stone
And stall your sentence to death by a thousand blows
Extend my arms just to say I could be here for you
Head to toe, I'm a pillar of fire for you

And I don't think about it X3
I don't even think

St. Agnes

St. Agnes, I
Wake from nightmares
Of bucking horses, with my
Hand in my underwear
Even as a child I knew you

St. Agnes, there's
Folks that's out there, who'd
Hang ya for less, would
Hang ya for much less
Even as a child I knew this

Is it the kind that'll get us drunk or blow off our legs?
Were the bombs going off in my stomach, or had I lost them?
All of their blood, crowing for hungry
Eyes eat the violent spread of the soldier of paradise
Eyes eat the violent spread of the soldier of paradise

Oh, St. Agnes, I
Shake with the pines, now and
Wait on the north wind, my
Eyelids pulled down
Even in my death I follow you
Even in my death, I do

Is it the kind that'll get us drunk or blow off our legs?
Were the bombs going off in my stomach, or had I lost them?
All of their blood, crowing for hungry
Eyes eat the violent spread of the soldier of paradise
Eyes eat the violent spread of the soldier of paradise

Gold From Teeth (Parallel)

We have known the total bliss of ignorance
Now we lay on our backs naked before the machine

This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
Oh

We have mourned the loss of body, amen
Now we open our wounds in salt mines until we find

Gold from teeth, sometimes
With all our demons inside
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
Oh

The bravest of us had devised a cover up
Of the overwhelming evidence of what had be done
We wanted to tan this hide in the daylight
With logical insight, with logical insight
But all of our senses were washed in divine light
All of our senses were washed in divine light

This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
It's gold from teeth, sometimes
With all our demons inside
This is hard sometimes
This is hard sometimes
Oh

Dog Song

Soft, wet grass under my palms
I spent our second, painful morning giving our
Wasted day to a sad friend, the
Kicking in the tummy of a ghost is
Only saved, when the
Bum bum bum bum bum is over

If you don't feed the dog, he will die (X2)
And that's that

This asshole never gives me praise
At the bottom of the well is the sacrifice of a lifetime
For a god imagined, a false promise
The kicking in the tummy of a ghost is
Only sacred
When the drunk drunk drunk fucking is over

If you don't feed the dog he will die (X2)
And that's that

Yoo Doo Right

When they ask what's wrong, I say, "Okay"
I'm in love with my girl and she's away
Man, you got to move on, man, you got to move on, man
I need your help, I need your love today

Once I was blind, but now I see
Now that you're in love with me
You made a believer out of me, babe
You made a believer out of me, babe

She said
Doo right, yoo doo right
Doo right, yoo doo right
Doo right, yoo doo right
Doo right, yoo doo right
Yoo doo, doo it right
Yoo doo, doo it right

When they ask what's wrong, I say, "Okay"
Man, you got to move on, man, you got to move on, man
I'm in love with my girl and she's away
I need your help, I need your love today

Once I was blind, but now I see
Now that you're in love with me
You made a believer out of me, babe
You made a believer out of me, babe

She said
Doo right, yoo doo right
Doo right, yoo doo right
Doo right, yoo doo right
Doo right, yoo doo right
Yoo doo, doo it right
Yoo doo, doo it right

When they ask what's wrong, I say, "I'm okay"
Man, you got to move on, man, you got to move on, man
I'm in love with my girl and she's away
I need your help, I need your love today

Once I was blind, but now I see
Now you're in love with me
You made a believer out of me, babe
Baby, baby, baby

She said

Longer Shadow

The darkness faded to gray, then
Gray into rose then
Rose into white

Sighted, a slow-moving shape with
Hair like a halo
Or burning filament

This shadow is long
You can see it from space
And you can see it on my face
And it sustains its weight
Just close your eyes, wait
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

A huge mandala of tree limbs
A head for a hawkeye
A hawk for one night
Like Heather shearing in sheep's eyes
I love her like water
I love her like wine

This shadow is long
You can see it from space
And you can see it on my face
And it sustains its weight
Just close your eyes, wait
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

Over you

Special Boy

Don't you want to know what it is
like to be a god? To crack some
Skulls for The State
To let the light in
To feel it all

Congregating at your feet

When I was a kid, my vision
of god was a giant, oh a
spirit in the sky
My antennae was high, I
was sensitive
And now,

I think I can hear him breathing

This information sprouting in my limbs like hot medicine
I see shame's silhouette in the doorway and I smell the ocean

Now, even water can't deny her
Flowing up a mountain to her
Mouth of fire, she is
Open wide, and the choir sings
Man Eater, Holy Mother

This information sprouting in my limbs like hot medicine
I see shame's silhouette in the doorway and I smell the ocean

Man Eater, Holy Mother
Man Eater, Holy Mother
Man Eater, Holy Mother

Pile of Shit

From the stage, I saw you
Like you were painted on the bottom of a pool
Or I cannot touch you through the glass
Then you smiled at me and the mirror cracked

Oh that moment's haunted
You showed me all your teeth and
Pressed my palms to the smooth bark of a beech tree

He loves me til I cannot walk
I never want it to stop

We are two lines in a brutal song
A line from your head, straight into my heart
I will bury my guilt in a pile of shit
Gonna let it rot and see what grows from it, but

All my thoughts are haunted
Love is always worth it
To get what I want, I gotta climb trees
You pressed my palms to the smooth bark of a beech tree

He loves me til I cannot walk
I never want it to stop
I will bury my guilt in a pile of shit
Gonna let it rot and see what grows from it, but

All my thoughts are haunted
Love is always worth it
To get what I want, I gotta climb trees
You pressed my palms to the smooth bark of a beech tree
Love learns to identify trees
Love learns
