Found A Friend

When I was at rivers edge,
readying to make my bed,
Engineering accidents,
I was made to meet your eye,
Darkness of periphery,
I can hardly stand your gaze,
When you offered me your hand,
Only Andy bade me stay,
And oh, you clip my nails,
Oh, you braid my hair,
Oh, you paint my eyes,
You dress my sides,
When I am bare,
Traveling the overpass,
I envision bridges falling,
And as I’m making my descent,
I decide to go back home,
In the backyard, my brother
Carrying my broken ribs,
Making straight my crooked ways,
Lifting up my heavy head,
And oh, you clip my nails,
Oh, you braid my hair,
Oh, you paint my eyes,
You dress my sides,
When I am bare,
I am glorious again,
I’m better now, I found my friend

No One You Know

It is an insecure world, I know, but I feel secure.
I got a ritual, I put a little guardian by my front door.
You always say that you will be there
but you don’t know if you will be there,
You gotta put it in a thought, make a plan,
Say a little prayer.
I don’t know how to talk about it,
I think I wanna talk about it,
I wanna talk a little more in an insecure world,
In Secure World, I feel secure.
I lit a candle by the window,
from below you could see the light.
I’m always tossing and I’m turning,
But the Lion is asleep tonight,
And when I’m closing my eyes,
Hot pain as I feel you fade–
I see a hundred old faces,
But I just can’t seem to remember your name,
I know that people come and go,
I know that people always come and go,
There is a limit to control,
It is an insecure world,
In Secure World, I feel secure.
I told you that I had a bad dream,
But I think I know exactly what it means!
I heard a voice inside a vent whisper
No one is gonna save me
Nobody, nobody, no one you know,
No one you know, no one you know, nobody

I don’t how to hold in my hand what I hold in my heart,
I got my finger on the pulse of it, but that is just the start,
I woke up frighten, heard it calling in the middle of the night,
I saw the floating shape of every living energy combined,
I felt a love I’d never known, and wanted more:
Act 2, Act 2, actualize
Last time around, I was a blade of grass, glistening with dew,
I know I’m fading fast, but I’ll be coming back again real soon,
When I find my form, I may return as someone you knew,
I know now everything you did to me, I had done to you,
And in the end we’re gonna see through each other’s eyes
Act 2, Act 2, actualize

Holy Host
03:38
|

|
A still and quiet voice, you whispered
“You’re not like the other boys,”
And though that may be true
I don’t think that I had another choice
But let’s talk about you
I wanna know what you get into
Like, when you breathe into your lungs
Do you exhale in the angels’ tongues?
I saw a flame over your head
We kissed and then went where the spirit led
Underneath the overhang
Your words were outpaced by the falling rain
And I felt the same–
there’s somethings you don’t have to explain
It’s buried underneath the text
Like the ecstasy of Saint Teresa
But it ain’t no secret
it was a whisper on the weather
And if you’re quiet you can hear it
Like the moving of the holy spirit
I wasn’t looking for a guarantee
Just wanna hear you say you want me
If you call me then I will approach
Invoke me like the holy ghost
And then the word became the flesh
Your body declared on the manifest
Staring at the lion moon
I’m baptized, the fire burned in your eyes
And combusted into mine
We held it like it’s hot to the touch
It was a name we never knew
But it descended on me like a dove
But it ain’t no secret
it was a whisper on the weather
And if you’re quiet you can hear it
Like the moving of the holy spirit
I wasn’t looking for a guarantee
Just wanna hear you say you want me
If you call me then I will approach
Invoke me like the holy ghost
Ah Ah Ah
Can’t take it back, no
Can’t take it back, no
Ah Ah Ah
Won’t take it back, no
Won’t take it back, no
Ah Ah Ah
Wouldn’t take it back, no
Wouldn’t take it back, no
Ah Ah Ah
I got your back, girl, and everybody knows
It ain’t no secret,
it was a whisper on the weather
And if you’re quiet you can hear it
Like the moving of the holy spirit
I wasn’t looking for a guarantee
Just wanna hear you say you want me
If you call me then I will approach
Invoke me like the holy ghost
If you call me then I will approach
Invoke me like the holy ghost
Take our love out on the road
Easter sunday, coast to coast
You’re the one I love the most
Hallelujah, Host of Hosts

Get out, get out, get out,
I seen it all before,
Don’t hesitate,
Don’t take the hit anymore,
I thought to have and hold,
Meant you’d lose control less often,
But I don’t think I knew I’d ever have
Another option,
And if you want to be a friend to me,
I would love to know you better,
And if you do the same for me,
I can’t imagine what we wouldn’t weather,
Don’t waste your time on them,
They’re gonna bleed you dry,
I tried and tried, but I don’t think
That I could ever change their mind.
It’s your move–just quit!
Don’t hit me with
None of that bullshit,
I heard it all a hundred times before,
I’m having none of it,
If you want to be a friend to me,
There is a bridge you may cross over,
Cus every day, I wake up from a dream
of you and me, shoulder to shoulder,
Again and again

Horse Dreams
04:17

Wings, horse with wings
Wings, horse with wings,
All of us here waiting,
All of us are waiting for
The horse with wings,
A horse with wings,
I saw my father in the side yard
Build a wooden shed,
I saw my mother in the kitchen
Making space for me,
We were preparing things
For a horse with wings,
We were all fitting form
For a horse with horns
I saw my brother draw a goblin
On a secret sheet
I saw my other brother craft
A paper airplane
We were preparing things
For a horse with wings,
We were all fitting form
For a horse with horns,
We were exchanging names
All for a horse in flames,
We were all lost in thought
For the horses’ god

Revenge
02:36
|

Blood for blood, two for one.
I’m gonna get you back for what you done.
Pound for pound, fire and flood–
I’m gonna strike you down
in the name of love.
Every day I wake up with a pain in my side,
But I’m gonna stay alive
Just cus you wanted me to die,
I don’t know how to take it
And if push will come to shove,
Then I stand atop my castle wall
To show you what is love,
There’s a banner hanging over me,
I’m carried on the wings of doves,
And I’m swingin’ like a chariot,
Revenging in the name of love,
What did you do,
I’m always gonna love you,
There ain’t no looking down
As though I were the stars above you,
Nine times out of ten,
I wish we were still friends,
We used to be so good
Just can’t recall exactly when,
And honest, I still think of you!
I hope you’re doing well!
But I ain’t breaking bread
With no one damning me to hell
The bill is overdue now
But you don’t know how to pay it,
If your god is gonna come for me,
Best get out of his way,
Got a love that drives out every fear,
And I’m too afraid to keep you near,
Got no record of the wrongs–
In heaven, I would still be queer,
Revenging in the name of love,
Revenging in the name of love

Lily

Lily, meet me early Easter morning by the creek,
We’ll get baptized,
They were putting one hand over our noses,
One over our eye,
I would rather be blind
Than see all things clearly
I was losing my mind
Because that’s how they love me,
It was never a choice,
But it’s mine to decide–
I was a child
I know you were protector of my heart,
But that’s not what needs protection,
The body was a better place to start.
Lily white as sheet,
I saw you wash all of the color from your cheek,
And I was dressed in orchid pink and green
when I called you to the window.
I was outside, I hoped you would see me,
I’d been singing for hours
Cus that’s how you hear me
And I hoped you’d come down
And become my family–
I was a child,
I was a child
I was alone,
No Lily above me,
I had become impure
So now you can’t love me,
I was a cake that you baked,
In the shape of a lamb,
A child in your hand,
I was a child

Andy
04:47

Andy was a diamond in the light,
He was shining on my side
In the tower of my enemies.
He came to my room at a time
When the shadow of mind
Was incomplete and growing.
My negative space,
Getting darker every day,
Silhouetted by your glowing,
I feel the shame by your
Power and your name
And the river overflowing
I wanna feel whole,
I get a little closer every day,
But then I lose control
And let the current take me.
He took me to the mountain in the south
And the water in its mouth was frozen over,
We walked from the river to the lake,
And the water held our weight
But still moved under
Standing in the deep with a friend
Without fear of sinking in
For thou art with me.
I offer this moment, take and hold,
As it, halted by the cold,
Becomes observable.
But then Andy went to the river all alone,
I was trading in the current for a home.
At least I know you for a time,
We ain’t gettin’ out of this world alive.

A world of wood is a world on fire,
A heart of mud will get you sinking neck deep,
And I’m barely feeling free
Because the world’s in danger–
How long have you been standing there?
How much did you hear?
Well I think you should know that I had a bad day,
But I meant what I said in every single way.
I know that people always come and go,
I thought I should let you know,
You were always on my mind,
I can’t let go.
The world is a bucking horse,
And we’re barely holding on,
There ain’t no meaning to our lives,
We’re just trying to survive,
And love is just as sweet
When the days are getting hotter,
You got me rolling on your withers,
You got me flipping on your mane,
Well I think you should know that I had a hard month,
But I’m still on top–what more could you want?
Even if I’m on the move,
I’ll be coming home real soon,
Just hold me close for the night,
While I am by your side,
Well I think you should know that I had a hard year,
But I slept through the night, I didn’t shed a single tear
