I'm Gonna' Ghost
02:05

I'm gonna ghost - I don’t wanna be here
I'm gonna ghost - to the boundary between impression and interstellar space
I'm a known fence rider stick in the eye from both sides at any time and any place
Watch the wheels coming off a thousand years of time in overdrive
Poison's in the tail when everything fails
Advance and withdraw without them noticing at all
People don't observe when they're looking straight down
Looking around in the crowd
Even though you're walking in the street
With a golden crown on your brow
Didn't see me coming or where and when I went
I'm gonna ghost - I don't wanna be here
I'm gonna ghost - gotta go - won't see me float you'll just know
Vanish into thin air that's how I disappear
Hiding in plain sight - polarized
Two eyes make the world distinctly divided
You thought you saw a shadow of me
Not easy to see - I got some insight into invisibility
Not easy to see from behind a screen
Got to ghost out before the final scene
Didn't see me coming or where and when I went
I'm gonna ghost - I don't wanna be here
I'm gonna ghost - I don't wanna be here
I'm gonna ghost - I don't wanna be here

Cut This Up

Gonna Cut this up to make better luck
Let the pieces blow in the wind
In the easy places tricks will occur
When you’re taking control for a spin
Should you straighten all the crooked pictures on the wall?
Is there something at work that we can’t see?
Lost art begins to fall apart
the cards replaced with a key
Crumpled up pieces of paper
chasing around like its treasure that you found
Sniffing at the air there’s something there
Intuition can’t figure it out
What do you do when you turn around in the middle of a dream
How do you know that there might not be a connection in between
A great wave will overtake us put us in a place where we must wait
Wake up asleep Come up from the deep
Caught you in the net no catch and release
Lost in the folds between the crease
escape is a temporary change of pace
But it’s getting to be too late
Layers of prayers resonate
vibration chants a number or a name
Never satisfied with the pattern
Of these disconnected atoms
Lamp reaches up to the lie of the lens
Cloudy Skin of the double onion
Behind your back, in front of your face
Hidden Cameras everyplace
Seeing at so many levels can’t quantify the secret that’s revealed
What do you see what does it mean
What do you do when you turn around in the middle of a dream
How do you know that there might not be a connection in between
Great wave will take us,
put us in our places.
Truth is in front of our faces.
Hold your feet to the fire,
head up in the clouds.
The winds will blow, change your direction.

Bees
Tried to be there Friday but I got lost.
Made it back just to find out I was gone.
Spent all my last energy gettin’ stoned.
Sun came up, the night was gone.
Static electric signal clear as a bell
Killed all the bees and all of the radio stations.
Cut the check cut to the chase, no one tuning in.
The devil got impatient.
The devil got impatient.
Tried to save you but you were so strung out
Screaming back, don’t know what that was about.
Roads that I have always traveled ‘round
on a sunny day and then the rain came down.
Thunder and lightning shaking my bones
down on my knees until I beg for mercy
Cut the check interrupt the station, no one listening
The devil got impatient.
The devil’s tuning in.
Didn’t know what, I was getting’ into.
Should have known that, you were crazy too.
Shoes worn at the heel, on solid ground.
King of pain you betcha’ I’m the talk of the town.
Lucky and barefoot on a gravel road
My home like a heaven birds sing to me.
Talk to clouds and cloud formations.
Run in the forest run to the station, no one’s watching
the devil’s tuning in
the devil’s tuning in.
(I didn’t see, I was numb
how soft you killed
smiling at me I didn’t see the teeth
that chewed) (K. Davis)
