You Are What You Seek

I was a whistlin’ bird singin’ prayers to the sky
Under the cover of an emboldened lover
Mistress of anything I’d try
Well, well I
Heard the tune of some other heart
Pluckin’ strings along his bow
Down I dove into the darkness
Everlovin’ steamy hot mess of
A love we long to know
Safe in the night
I kept to my crib and I slept
Waning the moon she peeled back
Til there was nothin’ left
Waist deep and oh so stuck
Pulling away from the tar
Why’d I surrender to your soliloquy,
Why’d it have to go this far
Taunted and frayed I backed away
From every emancipatin’ choice
Fearin’ I’d be sighted amidst love unrequited
I hid behind the noise
But in the edge of the night
It comes clear
The only thing holdin’ me backwards
Is fear
Emerging from the ashes
I will rise again
Stumblin’ through that awful mess that
I got myself in
Though it’s hard to accept change
When what you knew is gone
Just listen to that voice inside your head singin’
You’re not alone
Oh no, you’re not alone…
You’re not alone now, ooo...
You’re not alone (3x)

Hail glory to the mountains, the backbone of our world
They’re stony spines tickling the sky keeping up the rhythm and the rhyme
Of a mental drift, it’s a cosmic shift so hum along
A bewitching beat, just shuffle your feet and sing along to this siren song
Wooooaaaah, Woaaaaahh, Woaaaah, La da da da da da da da da da
Howlin' winds they whip up the very marrow of your bones
They’ll fill your lungs with the beat of drums, the past it calls for a brand new start
Memory held within the cracks of her skin, so be advised
That you’ve yet to perceive what’s up her sleeve, the reality is ocean sized
Wooooaaaah, Woaaaaahh, Woaaaah, La da da da da da da da da da
Oh brother wolf I pray you forgive the folly of my kin
The valleys echo silence to mock the indifference of our sin
Feather fur and claw follow different laws ancient as light
Try to truly reach the truth that they teach before its all becomes just shrinking ice
Wooooaaaah, Woaaaaahh, Woaaaah, Oo0o0o0o0o00oo0o0o0o0o0o!
Won’t you come, won't you come and pray with me?
My sister, Coyote
Oh wont you come, wont you come and pray with me?
My sister cay-oh-oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-yo-te?
Oh wont you come, wont you come and pray with me?
My sister,
Down by the mountains feet?

Holy Roller

“Holy roller, wild within!” I stumble, singing
Reverent of the child within, that’s wisdom screaming
Out our lungs, over our heads
All a quiver
The guide inside tapped into light is a selfless giver
A oo-oo selfless giver, mhmm, mmhmmmm
Psychotopographic maps outline our bodies
Each stretch and yawn sends me beyond til I can barely
Remain contained just raising cane
Only constant thing is change
And you and I are one in the same your
Breath is my breath, your oo-oo breath is my breath, mhhm
Don’t be shy to move on in to the dark temptress
Move in slow, open our mouths and taste the wetness
Of her breath and of her skin
Beads of dew dissolve our sin
Holy roller wild within I stumble singing, I oo-oo stumble singing, mhhmm
I crush the leaves and send perfume to those who’ve taught me
My shrine the west my prayer the moon
You are my family
Points divine set apart in time to read the universal sign
That we are light, now let it shine now..
Let it shine now, oo-oo let it shine now...

Jane

Well I pushed in my seed, and she swallowed it whole
Then I drowned in the warmth of that strong yellow glow, she
Took me and loved me and fed me good corn
Til ‘I’ was destroyed and my body was worn
Woah, ooo
And she called me
And she called me Jane
Oh yeah hey
Just call me
Just call me Jane
I kiss leaves
And I make love to mountain sides
The sun it graces my feet and then it
Creep creep creeps right up my thighs
Licking my belly
‘Til all I am is a-giggles and sighs
Just call me Jane
I just don’t think your gonna forget my name
Just call me Jane
Oh yeah, mmhmm-mmm
I am the whimsy that trickles through your lips
Smokin’ blue clouds over sunsets like a-woah
I am the frenzy that inhabits your hips ;)
From whorehouse to supernova
Ooo candy, sugar so sweet
I am the rhythm that possesses your feet
And the line
That gets you on the floor
Just call me Jane
Oh yeaahh, ho-oh
I just don’t think your gonna forget my na-ay-yay-am
Wont you call my, oh baby call my
I am the stranger that lies in your bed
The melody you cant get out of your head
I am the right and the oh so wrong
In fact, I am the words right inside this song
So just
Call me by my name
It’s Jane, yeeeeahhhhh
No I just don’t think your gonna be the same
So baby come on, won’t you say my
I am the dark
And I am the light
But most of all, I am the dream
That kisses you goodnight

I would like to
Congratulate you
On the way you make me feel
Warm and quiver lovely
A blessed shimmer of the
Deep and innocent
Mhmm..
I saw you step out
Of all your clothes
Sweat shining on your skin
Tasted the salt and sinew
Felt all the pleasure in you
Oh, Sweetness lets jump in…
That’s my shrine
My golden light
The worship that I crave (2x)
Mhmmm...
I know you want it
Feel free to say it
Who wouldn’t want some more?
