The Cell 04:55
Standing above the bed of flowers Some dark matter Sitting below the mess A child without rest Watching the time pass Through a board game hour glass Waiting for the moment To move on further from the past Rooted in dry soil An innocent child Soon to grow old And become one with the wild Chasing dreams without knowing Among rectangles glowing The brightest star in the sky Scarred tissue in the heart and mind The brightest star in the sky Scarred tissue in the heart and mind In the mind In the mind In the mind In the mind In the mind In the mind In the mind

Years of waiting patiently you try To get through the darkness in your life And all the weight adds up Until you die, the feeling inside The one you hide will always find you There’s a feeling in the air Every time I see you there A light shines through the mind That changes with time A capsule to keep A mountain so steep will always find you Nature’s course will have a plan Unforeseen like patterns in the sand The breeze, the plants, the trees The land and sea Everything the cycle brings to you is change One day the tide will rise And wash over our lives The force that steers the wheel In your life and in mine Please keep us both in line with time

Family 02:53
Living together in dissonant times The best understanding that we’ll ever find May always remain in the darkest of seas What is a family supposed to be? Expectations flowing and changing too fast Never really growing out of the past We’re always the same child inside But we will deny it We’ll run and hide Go outside and listen to the hum of the bee Flying in and out of the blossoming tree It’s offering solace in all that you need Family can be anything you want it to be
