To Ponder and Wander

I've laid in a bed with a woman
who belongs to my best friend
I've pondered for several weeks and months over it
but my tongue stays tied down
I've been straight before,
but my brain thinks I'm better on the drugs
I've questioned my stomach with chemicals and regrets
it answers back with a growl
The world says I'm turning,
My mind thinks I'm learning how to finally settle down
I've been straight before,
but my brain thinks I'm better on the drugs
Lost track of time down by the creekside
watching my mind float away on a lily pad
set on a path with no map
and I'm not sure if it's ever coming back
I've been straight before,
but my brain thinks I'm better on the drugs

Hello, my love
I heard you're back in town
yeah, I'm still around
after all these years, stuck here in fear, locked down
I've lost my touch
I think I said too much
but didn't do enough, all talk, you called my bluff
But don't pity me,
because I'm still breathing
high hopes in a high dose, pipe dreams of breaking free
Where I leave this place
and I kiss your face
One day I swear it's true, I'll run away with you
Hello, my love
I heard you're back in town
yeah, I'm still around
the day has come, its true, I'll run away with you

Before This Body

With our legs tied together,
we race against each other
but we all chase the big dream
we all want the same things
Don't we?
People, they talk
yeah, they talk a lot
people tend to talk
when they don't know enough
With masks removed and fronts on the floor
We can then return to our core
where there is just love
With masks removed and fronts on the floor
We can then return to our core
where we are all one
If you break us all down
It is sure to be found
that things are not what they seem
we're all on the same team
Aren't we?
Hello, my friend
I'll hold out my hand
when you step up, I step up too
for you are me, and I am you
Before this body
is where you'll find me
I'll be waiting for your return

We are a thought
We are all god
We are love
We are all that's above
We hold it deep inside
and release it when we cry
so collect your tears
and forget your fears
Just be light
Just feel alive
Just be light
