My Little Buddha
02:51

|
Drawn into the dream
Breathing it all in
Diving into streams
Surrounded by your secret things
Stop
Just for a minute
You've got your finger on it
All you want right now
You have, it's now
And Im privileged to see you in it
A band of colours shine
Where does the light begin
Wavelengths dip and rise
You dance between the thoughts you think
Stop
Just for a minute
You've got your finger on it
All you want right now
You have, it's now
And Im privileged to see you in it
Dance
My Little Buddha
Dance
My Little Buddha
Dance
My Little Buddha
Dance My Little Buddha
Dance from harm
Back from a little trip
You only carry charm
You dont get lost in it
Dance my little Buddha dance from harm
Stop
Just for a minute
You've got your finger on it
All you want right now
You have, it's now
And Im privileged to see you in it

A Good Place For You
03:16
|
|||
|
Life
It's a rollercoaster
Sure
Everyday
Feels like a year of
Yours
The worst thing you can do in it
Is take the time to reflect on it
When I hold you in my arms
And wish the world wont bring you harm
And my whole purpose of being is
Being with you now
Will there be a good place for you when we're gone?
Hurt
It's not what it was before
There is love in it
That's easy to ignore
If I had to live my life again
I'd by lying if I said
I wouldn't change a thing
Why havent I song this sooner?
What is it I've been afraid of?
I didn't want it down on paper
Hiding behing vague and vaguer
When this is all there is
This is what life has been
This is what I'd never change
Love
Is not what it was before
There's hurt it in it
That can be hard to ignore
This is what it is
This is what it is
What it is always will

Stay Calm
03:13
|

Stay calm
Stay calm
I'm telling myself stay calm
And I'm not calm
And my moods impact your moods
And it's not fair
But I'm human
And I can't stop putting this day
Down on me
Tomorrow will be (maybe)
I've been celebrating
Small Victories
I've been glossing over
Big defeats
I've been trying to change
The atmosphere
Time's disappeared
Where do we go to from here
Breath , breath in
Breathe out again
Count to ten
Count to ten again
Your teeth are still clenching
Stay calm
Stay calm
I'm telling myself stay calm
And I'm not calm
And Ive only gone and done something wrong
Broke routine
But I'm human
I'll blame myself for doing things
Differently
Tomorrow will be better (maybe)
I've been celebrating
Small Victories
I've been glossing over
Big defeats
I've been trying to change
The atmosphere
Time's disappeared
Where do we go to from here
Breath , breath in
Breathe out again
Count to ten
Count to ten again
Your teeth are still clenching

When someone says it must be hard
When someone says it must be hard
I agree
I know it's true
But I feel like disagreeing
Because you're you *
When someone says it must be hard
When someone says it must be hard
And the someone saying something
Sympathetic is being kind
Has never looked you in the eye
And seen you smile
When someone says it must be hard
When someone says it must be hard
Kindness makes me feel I need it
Kindness makes me see too clearly
Kindess makes me be all too teary
There are times it's nice to hear it
But only from
People who I don't mind
Hearing from
There are times it's nice to hear it
But only from
People who I don't mind
Hearing from
There are times I want to hear it
But only from
People who I don't mind
Hearing from
There are times I Like to hear it
But only from
People who I don't mind
Hearing from
They dont know you
Like I know you
They dont love you
Like I love you
When someone says it must be hard (they dont know you)
When someone says it must be hard
(they dont know you)

Jealousy
03:29
|

Jealousy
Im ashamed to admit it
Im jealous of your family
And the things you take for granted
Jealousy
Im ashamed to admit it
Im jealous of your family
There's things you do I dont know want to hear it
A spontaneous trip
A stroll down town
A meal at a restaurant
A football match
A kickaround
What I need right now
Is for you to shut up
The world to shut up
I need to shut up
Jealousy
Im ashamed to admit it
Im jealous of your family
And the things you take for granted
Kids excelling at school
A night out with your spouse
A wet and windy weeked in
Relaxing
No one left the house
What I need right now
Is for you to shut up
The world to shut up
I need to shut up
Jealousy
Need some time for Jealousy
Jealousy
Just a little time to feel jealousu
Jealousy
Need some time for you and me

Upside Up

Precious
Your special essence just refreshes
And fills my restlessness with blesses
No ground for my feet to stand
No cup to sup
You turned my world upside
Up
Precious
Your fresh expression is infectious
You teach suspiciousness a lesson
No ground for my feet to stand
No cup to sup
You turned my world upside
Up
I never saw you come
I never saw
You came running
To save me
Precious,
You brought the future back to present
I felt my crevice turn to crescent
No ground for my feet to stand
No cup to sup
You turned my world upside
Up
I never saw you come
I never saw
You came running
To save me
No ground for my feet to stand
No cup to sup
You turned my world upside
Up

There Is A World
04:07
|
|||

There is a world
That you let me in
That I love being in
That you only let me in sometimes
Walk
Always changing speed
Skip
Life's complexities
Run
With just fun
There's no fear
Grinning from ear to ear
I'm going to ride that car
Up the ramp
And over the hill
I'm going to catch that star
The one that shines
In you mind
And shines bright
For awhile and then falls
And when you fall
You quickly rise
Anger and tears
Magically disappear
With just joy in your eyes
Can I join that joy awhile
All that you taught me
All that you teach me
All that you taught me
All that you teach me
Your world is better than ours
There is a world
That you let me in
That I love being in
That you only let me in sometimes
Love
Like no other love
Trust
A bit too much
Live
Like there is
Only now
Teach me your way and how
Im going to ride that car...
All that you taught me
All that you teach me
All that you taught me
All that you teach me
Your world is better than ours

Aliens
04:18

The shape of
Your teardrops
Stay the same
They’re not snow flakes
There’s no escape
No aliens
All thoughts are lost
Lines have been crossed
You paid the cost
Like melted frost
No rescue shot
No aliens
Life moves on
Its ok
If you need time
IF you need space
Life moves on
Its ok
Travel through time
Travel through space
Like Aliens
The color of
What you're thinking of
Changes shade
Dark blue to grey
Dont be afraid
Of aliens
This old world
It wasn't built for you
Foreign to you
We're passing through
Like aliens
Life moves on
Its ok
If you need time
IF you need space
Life moves on
Its ok
Travel through time
Travel through space
Like Aliens

There Must Be A Catch
03:12
|

The good days outnumber the bad
The time for thinking talking about sad times has past
The cold still comes..but the fire’s on
I hope it lasts long. I hope it lasts long
Ive been thinking lifes not so bad at last
There must be a catch
The cut I hid is open and the broken wound healed
The bricks that hit still sting about but my skins sealed with a shield
I swig swill swim, the water I was drowning in
I hope it wont wear thin I hope it wont wear thin
Ive been thinking lifes not so bad at last
There must be a catch
The good days outnumber the bad
The time for thinking talking about sad times has past
The cold still comes..but I know what flint and flame becomes
Feel the fire blossom. Feel the fire blossom
I've been thinking lifes not so bad at last
There must be a catch
Catch me, if I get caught
catch me, Ive been caught out
If there must be a catch, catch me

Where The World Begins
03:53
|

|
You've got me
Blood, bone and skin
You've got me
Where the world begins
Where the world begins
Before records of life
Nothing lived or died
No sounds or sights
Where's the world
Where the world begins
(You've got me)
You've got me E and A
Fossil filled history
You've got me
Where the world begins
Where the world begins
(You've got me)
Every chemical
In every cell
Here or parallel
You've got me
Where the world begins
(You've got me)
Where the world begins
(You've got me)
Here I am
