I've come to conclusion - the
knot I must tie,
It's times like these when I
wonder oh why,
The meaning eludes me,
my hands they do shake,
my thoughts they are racing,
    the       chair I must take,
position it gently in the middle
of the room,
take one more breath for there
is none in the tomb,
a single desire to rest is a go,
the rest I do leave for the
vulture   and     crow.

Take one second to look around,
what do you see?
Is it anything worth admiring or
something you need?
Don't take for granted the things
you have said,
for they are merely words,
can't bring back the dead,
The soul of the desert is
crying out loud - surrender,
surrender,
no water to be found,
You've fought it for days,
now's the time to be true,
admit your wrong doings ....
The     sacrifice        is    you.

Message in a bottle made of
holy water,
opera of pleasure, imagine
holy treasure,
staring at you for so long
I endured a second coming,
speaking of the devil - up
another level.

The closer to the source we go,
the more questions arise,
vitamins for the soul we need if
ever we are to advise,
someone in need of attention or
someone in the making,
send my thoughts to detention,
my soul is ready for taking.

Busy people, happy faces,
you're the one who gets me places,
Anywhere I wanna be,
Anytime I'd have to be,
Looking over at things I've said,
Gets the tension off my head,
Proud to have a moment with,
You of all, they walk instead of
        Staying in the moment pretty,
      Dancing or be singing maybe,
Gathering a thousand looks,
   We of all are simple dukes.

Swim, my tired brain,
run up that hill with full throttle,
or walk in figures of eight,
it's alright to think, it doesn't hurt,
But sometimes you will wonder ...
does the face express the thought
from a distance ... in an instant,
Does the limb bleed if there is
no one there to witness it ...
I wonder, you'll wonder,
mentally bandage and move on,
it's alright, you're alright.
