mind is an ***** for truth
the expansion of consciousness

-is that truth living in your heart
a heart made for love.
We could be up there
inside the circle
outside the square
but
we're not.

The tower blocks still rise
and we're locked in,
surprise,
but not really
is it?

you don't get fat when you're being fed on lies
and you're stuck in a flat so you sever all ties
and that's modern society,
the new social realism.

but we could be up there
with the higher echelon
sitting on
the top stair
looking down to where
we could be.

I would try and hide from the horrors
and try to hide from the pain
but no matter how deep it is buried
the fact is the pain...it remains
The pain is still there every day
sometimes it is just hidden further away

I had to learn how to hide and how to retreat inside
Tried so many things to fill the emptiness the hole
So much hatred for a thief who stole so many innocent souls
Even though there are no scars on the outside to see
does not mean it did not happen to my sisters and me

thought I was to young to have a voice
to young to have a choice

Where there is darkness there is also light
Maybe some goodness can come of this after all
We can learn together how to come around that darkened wall
Our pain can produce a voice for all to hear
Make a stand.... speak up and listen with our ears

A blade of grass is inconsequential,
Unless it's above you,
Or found on Mars.

One mosquito is unnoticeable
Until sounding in your ear at night,
Or infecting a nation.

A broken heart isn't uncommon
When it's someone else's.
Notes
and here we are
far enough away?

well
it's a prime location
stationed as it is
near to a Sun
and
look how far we've come
just
far enough
to blow ourselves
to
Kingdom ..
..watch me run.

and it's blue?
yes,
I'd be blue too
if my final resting place
was
Planet here
on a fiery ball
spinning out of control.

'Space the final frontier?'
don't make me laugh.

song comes with the night
the silence of stars

their crackle and burn
perceived as light

a black sky, endless
silent, all knowing.
