All the things I cast out to sea reverberated back at me. There I was with the clamoring crowd to hear what has come our way. “If we’re given thoughts and steel how could He not know that we’d build a train?” And we’ll build the thing so fast ‘cause we all want to live before we die. You know we're in for a few reverberations. Get ready for a few reverberations. All the things we cast out to sea reverberated back at me. Forgotten slaves still turning the wheels while we wine and dine on a runaway train. When we get to the end of that line, you know that we’ll feel one heavenly blow. Half of us in ignorant bliss while the other half choose to look away. You know we're in for a few reverberations. Get ready for a few reverberations. In store for a few reverberations. Get ready for a few reverberations. And the people saw their mistake and tried to turn the wheels back round. And the people called to the sky but were left, in short, without a sound. And the hands still holding the wheel with the eyes of a monk and the heart of a clown, Drove straight to the end of that line to find out what new life would be found.

Crazy Girl 02:24
She was young and wild Had a smile made to last Had a voice so mild She had my heart beating fast Pretty girl, throw me around Baby girl, take me to town Crazy girl, break me down Cause you're crazy! You're crazy! Daddy left at sixteen Momma was a drama queen You packed your bags n skipped town. But those bad days won't keep you down Pretty girl, throw me around Baby girl, take me to town Crazy girl, break me down Cause you're crazy! You're crazy! Pretty girl, throw me around Baby girl, take me to town Crazy girl, i keep you around Cause you're crazy! And I'm crazy about you.

Your eyes, they fall Don’t want to see me at all But in my dreams, I see myself back to you. A moment of relapse And I see my whole world collapse, I know, you cannot forget the past. But my heart, it says, bring it on back to you A smoke and whiskey, For splinters in my brain. It’s so easy to drown out the pain. Thoughts of us happy, And another smoke and whiskey, Bring it all back, bring it all back to you. Bring it all back, bring it all back, bring it all back to you. It’s two o’clock in the morning, And the demons are soaring, My guitar finds the way back to you. In the depths of confusion, I hear your voice in a vision, Bring it all back, bring it all back, bring it all back to you. Bring it all back, bring it all back, bring it all back to you.

Hey you, yeah you! Hey you, yeah you! what are you doing here, working for the man? what are you doing here, you some sort of prophet? Dont reach too far, Dont reach too high, You better get in line or you’ll lose your mind! Hey you, yeah you! what are you doing here, singing for the poor? what are you doing here, with that guitar in your hand Dont reach too far, Dont reach too high, You better get in line or you’ll lose your mind! Hey you, yeah you. What am I doing here, what have I become? Hey you, yeah you. Did I reach too far, did i reach too high, I’d better get in line before i lose my mind.

Époque 10:13
I. "You cannot suppress sex. You cannot suppress mankind's fascination, and curiosity for whatever motive in other states of consciousness than the normal. These things are eternally fascinating to human beings and will always be pursued, whether you think its a good thing or whether you think its a bad thing, it makes no difference, it will be done." - Alan Watts II. Time is ticking away You’ve punched your last ticket Let me show you the way We’ll soar through space The promise of bliss It turns me to stone Your whispering kiss It brings me back home I want to tell you how I feel, but I don’t know what to say Every time is like a bend, then like smoke it wisps away Tell the world I’ll be okay Oh lord, take us away III. I wanna tell you how I feel, but I don't know what to say Every time it’s like a bend, then like smoke, it wisps away

I was born to write a song About where I belong I was told to fight On our father's night And all the things I had, and all the things i do I was the greatest fool, when I ran away with you Now I'm here, all alone. I'm here, there's no one home. Caught in the game That the powerful play It was fun for a while Then you put me on trial. And all the things I had, and all the things i do I was the greatest fool, when I ran away with you Now I'm here, all alone I'm here, there's no one home I'm here, where my demons roam I'm here, where i belong Where I belong Where I belong Where I belong Where i belong...

What is this place? Ashes from space Now your lies can no longer keep you safe The strings that I clutch They may not be enough The echoes of the sound will show us the way Ooooooooo, dreams that you’ve planned Watch as they slip, right through your hands A fool’s mistake, keeps you awake That distance light is fading, so…far... away! Thus it remained The world hasn’t changed A guitar will free your mind from the madness Ooooooooo, dreams that you’ve planned Watch as they slip, right through your hands A fool’s mistake, keeps you awake That distance light is fading, so…far... away! What is this place? Ashes from space Now your lies can no longer keep you safe

My heart beats the rhythm, as the birds chirp their melody. A friend whispers; compose a piece, as the roar of towers dwindles away. A forgotten one offers me her hand, in need of my youthful clutch. I walk away, my conscious still infantile, I walk away with a narrow eye. I play a chord through my finite fingers, it echoes out towards the infinite. A grain of sand, a fleeting laugh, a crevice leaf, her sorrow still brings me to grief. Phosphorent memories blind my sight, I run from gallowed souls, remembering where the forgotten one lays, there amongst the things that live, she stares. The birds chirp like chaotic bombs, the trees suffocating from impure thoughts, I offer my hand to my forgotten friend; indifferent eyes, aged lies, she whispers goodbye.
