Breathe into your highest mind
constant constellation, the obstruction of time
she can show you everything, mother earth, the heaven queen
but it is inside your heart, you will learn to sing
They were like caged butterflies
inside their shells they thought theyd died
the acid, the roaring waves, their broken bones, and tiny caves
and then they broke free and they flew away
Infinite poetry, lightning bug symphony
when our souls met they said
finally!
a blink of an eye, the talk of the times
today you forgot everything inside your mind
Blessed are the human hearts
the sycamores, the universe
my eyes are bright, your eyes are bright
you’re (we’re) learning how to break until you’re (we’re) alright
so you (we) can see the light
Infinite poetry, lightning bug symphony
when our souls met they said
finally
a blink of an eye, the talk of the times
today you forgot everything inside your mind
They were like caged butterflies
inside their shells they thought theyd died
the acid, the roaring waves, their broken bones, and tiny caves
and then they broke free and they flew away
They flew away, to brighter days, to brighter days
And I’ve changed, and you’ve changed,
and they looked around and saw your face
and they said you’ve changed

I’ve been waiting for an ocean, I’ve been waiting for a sea
to break its waves inside me, to fill my wilted body.
But the sky, it’s empty and so dry and the farmers’ crops hang heavy,
while the sweat’s collecting deep inside their brows.
These highways stretch between the cornfields, carve deep within the graves
of ones with ancient footprints swept then promptly paved away, fade away
and in his mind, he knows “he’s always right”
so the oilbirds rock like cradles creaking modern lullabies to sleep inside
And you, you don’t know how thirsty you are
my boots trod the earth, cracked like a broken heart
and these sheep talk in herds while the shepherd holds his tongue
knowing many songs and phrases are only sung by mountain lungs

(Water)
Sweet River, don’t you cry,
you can’t help that the ocean lost his mind.
I was there when they talked it through,
they took their metal boots and colonized the moon
and she said, “what do I have left to bleed to that isn’t you?”
(Fire)
The fire, the fire took the sun, in a flaming song
and now the winter is gone.
The fire, the fire burned it down (it burned it down)
and now we start from the ground.
(Earth)
Sweet creature from the earth,
your petals bloomed right from the ancient dirt.
How many lives were spent until you emerged
from the earth?
(Air)
The wind taught him how to sing
first howling soft then laughing like a king
the breeze it latched onto the waves
and road itself into the tides of change

Come, come away, have you missed the long time coming?
Do you reckon with the morning?
Are you breathing with the moon?
Remember being young, before we scarred our wounds with armor
and like secret boys we wandered into valleys of the tombs.
Take it down, I don’t want to see the hate no more,
the killings of the poor and the Truth.
I want to see a borderless peace,
the end of the police,
the abolition of prison slavery.
The smokey mountains blue,
the breathing eye of Truth
what’s keeping me from you.
the people in the news
the genius of the youth
The one sent to truly love you.
Speak your old tongue, tell the masses what they’re missing
fill the spaces with their blessings, hold his hand through metal bars
Tempt their old ways, rise above the crowd, start laughing
smile as everyone starts asking
hold the hand through metal bars.
Take it down, I don’t want to see the hate no more,
the empire, and the wars in the news
I want to see the breaking of the wall, as the nation starts to fall
the bursting heart of revolution
a cry in the night
and old dove taking flight
singing one, singing all, singing with you
singing with you.

Wild one, don't go back inside
wild woman said that you'll be fine.
The ancient souls they talk to me
said you chipped your golden heart at sea
now you're feeling so afraid.
Tangled bones, washed up at the shore
I'm leaving all my troubles at the door.
The lovers I hear they're tired
from running away from themselves
from running from what keeps them them wild
from what keeps them held together.
Tell me what did you come here for
when you walked right through my door?
Tell me what did you come here for?
Wild woman rocking left and right
singing don't be shy, don't be shy
and the wilderness it speaks to me
I found God sitting in a tree, just breathing.
Waking bird, the flocks all going home
you don't have to be alone, you don't have to be alone anymore.
and I'm singin I am not you, I am not me
and when they found me at that tree I was just being
I was just being.
Hold on.

Fascination with the relation of the moon
I caught you staring into my eyes
because you said you liked the view.
You drink your coffee on Sunday
at the diner on Market Street.
You like your coffee like your lover
so sweet, so sweet.
Hold on tight, you got that crazy look in your eyes
And I'm that kind of woman that surprises.
