a sound tore my floor asunder
i landed beneath a tree
a voice spoke in my head just like thunder
projected a light right through me
it said "this is your journey"
om dum durgaye namaha
the one thing that you showed to me
the one thing that i couldn't see
til falling acorns set me free
trying to shake me from the tree
talking to myself all along
waiting for another line from the song
to let me know where you had gone
but this road i must go alone
so until i see you at the end
protectress, protect me again
om dum durgaye namaha
all i need is a push
pick me up,
push me off,
and watch me fly away
although you know i'd like to stay
i see the sky is getting gray
(take cover)
the darkness in my own eyes
tends to be the same beam
from the tunnel
shining from the other side, all the way
to shed light on the disguise
of the enemies in my dream
who i had hoped to destroy
by confusingly asking them to stay
but then much to my surprise,
they said to me the same thing you did say
earlier on the very same day
i sent you upon your way
the same thing i pray
but a little more blase,
"now just watch me fly away"
i'll see you on another day
when we're just colors in the array
(not much further)
i found myself in a tunnel
turned out was inside a tree
i asked the oracle for a journey
turned out the inside of me
it said "one, two, three, two, one...
...free
om, shanti, shanti, shanti

Love

love is on the way
my directions say
one more long day to tune in
to the inevitable strain
of never having to go through this again
so let's begin
is everybody in?
(one more spin)
not so sure i'm ready
(the confusion will hold me steady)
but don't think i can stay here now
i'll find a new way somehow,
once i iron out my brow
(a long way)
lost along the way
'nother song to play, encore
it's just another way not to find love
dance around some more
avoiding the door
who's keeping score?
now, look again...
colors change to black and white
squares and circles join the fight
take your darkness with my knight
with my night time light
shines inside my sight, so bright
a little bit to the right
makes me keep turning round in circles
til the sound comes back again
voices round the bend, all sayin
"follow, follow the trend"
i instead swallow these instructions
cause i know, to grow,
i must throw it all away
so i can then reach back through,
with love
and view it from above
and now i'm on my way
to the central task
but i must ask, why
are my hands so tightly tied around this wheel i am steering?
with no real sense to make of the directions that i am hearing
til you surfaced in front of me, disguised so revealingly
didn't you realize i was on the other end of that clearing?
waiting for a clue...
then i saw you
but then you had changed your form again, like you do so often
still had some grip on where i was but couldn't guess what had happened
til i looked up from my controls at the nightlight shining through your keyholes
didn't mean to let go of the wheel but still the landing was softened
and what's more,
it turns out that we share the same door
and now it's time to take our bow
but now
that i stand back from the game
the steps spell out a name
carved in glass, aglow in the flame
of our own Love
