American I'm Ben. I play piano and write, sing and listen to beautiful music. I will make a difference one day. My best friend in the world is Dave Supplee. He is my lifelong friend and brother. We will become famous together.
Why are you so tired now? Do the scary kids keep you up at night? Do they slither back into your skull and whimper there sing-song soul slash sounds. Why are you so frightened now? When you know that those things at night are nothing close to real? When you still can't see them but you know they are right there watching you, and you want them to go away. Those times at night when you **** awake. You here the echos of sounds bouncing inside, outside and round your head. Weeeeee… They drive you mad, even when they are just one benign sound, scratching away inside your brain. The rhythm by which they so carefully destroy your well being. A four-four time scheme that will drive you insane.

Ticket Stub
Dead grass moves in rhythm with the breeze, dancing loftily, casting shadows that mock, while wind whispers things to tempt wonder, and ants crawl upon the rocks. I look upon the sun and clouds, feeling things inside me, marching, coursing, thundering pounding against my brain, moving my body with the pace, rocking left and right and sensing sensations, a thought pierces my perception, and I return home, happiness? yes. My toes curl in the dirt, my mind cleared, alive. Tasting life itself, moved beyond reality, I stand tall.

Pulse
feel the thoughts, and the sounds and the songs we sing all the feelings in our bones that we know it brings feel the rush of the wind with the feathery flight that will lift and will free us in the dead of night. let your breath escape, let your thoughts unfold see the wisdom in the words that our fathers told close your eyes, take a step, and i'll follow you there to our roots, where we never see the hunters snare touch the moss, feel the rain that will drown our pain touch the moon, feel the warmth of the month of june have a drink, quench your thirst to survive the worst of the trials that will face, when we leave this place. eat the fruit of the tree that glows so bright see the gleam that it leaves when you see the sight. with the warmth that it leaves within your soul now you know that you need nothing more at all its a dream but you know that it is quite real leaves a vision in your mind that you know and feel

The Tree
There is no way that I could sing the song in my soul that moves me so, and all that I know is these songs they show these pictures of you that I can't deny that I love. Looking at you as the wind blows your hair, though I want to feel you but I'm no where near. Now there's something inside I cannot hide, but I smile when I think of you right here with me. Darling please believe me when I say there is no way for me to describe the feelings I have had for you these days. Thoughts of you and dreams of us two going places so strange that we never knew are the only thoughts that are in my mind these days. If I could find a way to get to you where we could be together and share a moment or two, I'd walk all night and I'd walk all day under moon, under stars, under sun so hot because I love. Sensations of touch stir in my soul thoughts of lovely things I can't control Rhythm will move me when thunder rolls to see the world through our eyes when you're so close to me. Darling please believe me when I say there is no way for me to describe the feelings I have had for you these days. Thoughts of you and dreams of us two going places so strange that we never knew are the only thoughts that are in my mind these days. There is no way that I could sing the song in my soul that moves me so and all that I know is these songs they show these pictures of you that I can't deny that I love.

One Of Those
shades of red and blue streak across her face a knowing eye of perceptive sight and mouth of slightest taste tell me what you think now there's a thought thats in my mind looping over and over through my eyes making me blind. looking at the snakes moving in her hair though i want to see her face but i'd never dare for you see, the way things gotta be for it seems that have got to leave behind this dream for the things that we conceive the things that we perceive there's nothing we can do or find to hold on to besides, the celestial extra terrestrial existential and past transcendental things not conceivable within our mind, more powerful than things that we can make or find. tell me what you think she comes to me from my dreams and from my revelations her lips will kiss and caress my face and unveil my inspirations tell me what you think dreams are the means of visitation for the goddess that appears in every situation for she's beautiful and yet so very frightening and the grass that she slithers on scarlet lightning. when i see so many things i don't know what it brings but with her beautiful stare i lose all sense of care. the words she speaks are revelation with her breath on my face, its intoxication. tell me what you think shake the ghosties out my head and find some place thats warm close the windows by my bed and run from all the ants and worms tell me what you think
