"he used to sit on trees
and watch the sun - sun go by
the stars had looked at him
as if her eyes were there, love everywhere"



~ Dreams of Sanity ~






day after day... alone in a tree (oh no {good grief}, not another fool song... I mean have we not humiliated or masturbated (or is that flagellated?... obstination?... imagination?) this loneliness theme (or is that romance?... madness?) enough?... obviously not, since alone is still the state of being... continue)... a man looks down on a crowd and wonders, 'where should he pee'... ok, so irreverent as ever, the fool is truly up the tree tonight (with dreams of sanity?... oh pun-ish me down to ol' virginee... virginity optional, but innocence mandatory... somebody throw a branch at him already)...

and the girl goes down to the river
and the child rolls down to the sea
and the boy is told to deliver
all in search of some sanity

and the spirit flies into morning
and the soul lays down on the sand
and the river spills out a warning
the time of change is at hand

how long did we think we could go on
sacrificing nature for our greed
how long did we think we could go on
selfishly succumbing to our need
while ignoring basic instincts
pretending we are free
how long did we think we could
escape nature's cruelty

maybe we just didn't think
maybe that's why we drink
maybe that's why we smell
oh hell, we stink

and the song sings into autumn
and the game is almost done
and the hope of civilization
is the battle never won

and the folly of possession
and the madness of true love
and the sacrifice of innocence
to some thought-thing above

how long did we think we could go on
corrupting the truth for our fear
how long did we think we could go on
before we disappear
while ignoring common values
pretending we are wise
how long did we think we could
live with our closed eyes

maybe we just didn't think
maybe that's why we drink
maybe that's why we smell
oh hell, we stink

mankind
is not kind
ironic
moronic

mankind
isn't kind to man
or anything
it is sick

mankind
is not kind
ironic
isn't it?

  how long did we think we could go on...


crash a few symbols
break some strings
rage and scream
maybe a nightmare
call it a dream


maybe we just didn't think
maybe that's why we drink
maybe that's why we smell
oh hell, we stink


. o O ( is it safe to come out now? ) O o .


was that really an olive branch?... still I jest, still I tease, still I don't fall to my knees... after all is said and done, I just want to make it fun... helping, loving, giving, sharing, nurturing all we can become... after all is said and done, I just want to make it fun... and she knows... and I am here (forever), watching the stars watch me (infinitely), waiting for her...
