Be Kind To Animals

"Each if you, must distinguish for himself between the scenes of; cold reality, and those of; pure illusion..."

They call me old McDonald

I live on a farm

I don't even have a burgler alarm

I got a big gun,

sometimes I shoot little birds just for fun

so don't be steppin' on my property son

Got mah wife and three boys, and little girl

up till last week I didn't have a care in the world

Till, little Johnny started acting crazy

Cause pappa shot Daisy

I was like; Hush little baby don't cry oh just chill

God made animals for us to kill

Closing My Green Shutters

 I woke up this morning with a smile on my face

 Nobody's gonna bring me down today

Been feeling like nothings been going my way lately

So I decided right here and now that my outlooks gotta change  

That's why I'm gonna

Say goodbye to all the tears I've cried

For everytime somebody hurt my pride

Feeling like they won't let me live life

To take the time to look at what is mine

I see every lesson completely

I'm thankful for what I got  

I believe they can take anything from me

But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace

They can say all they wanna say about me

But I'm gonna carry on

Spirituality

He who refrains from identifying with a body or gender is wisdom personified.

He is calm and tranquil yet vibrating with energy.

He does not feel below anyone and not above anyone either.

He is fearless and free from worry.

And usually doesn’t speak very much because in his view speech is unnecessary.

He is not interested in convincing anybody of his views because that too is unnecessary.

But when asked he’d talk about the creative energy and consciousness that flows through, and penetrates everything and everyone.

He will often speak about oneness and the importance of compassion and love and that anything is possible.

Cough Syrup

Life's too short to even care at all oh

I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control

These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

A wet world aches for a beat of a drum

Oh

Set Fire To The Rain

I let it fall, my heart

And as it fell you rose to claim it

It was dark and I was over

Until you kissed my lips and you saved me

My hands they're strong, but my knees were far too weak

To stand in your arms without falling to your feet

But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew

All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true

And the games you play, you would always win, always win

But I set fire to the rain

Not Hip For Your Trip - Goodbye California

I’m pre-meditating crime of a personal kind

I’m about to go out of my mind

I’m just about sick to death of taking breath

And walking this line of mine

Now, folks that know what’s good for them

Are good at ignoring them

But I just can’t put these thoughts down

I’m harrowed and abused

And broken and pursued

By this notion that follows me around

My heart is hurting

My spirit’s burdened

A Touch Of Fringe

I don’t think I’m from this universe. I just don’t feel that I belong here. I don't feel that my friends are my friends, and my family isn’t my family. I mean, everything is wrong.

“Nothing is as it seems."

So you may think that I’ve gone crazy. All you know is that everyone dies?.....Right?

Nope.

1+1=2?.... Right?

Nope.

Think of anybody…do you trust them? Well, don't trust them.

First Time I Saw Your Face

The first time ever I saw your face

I thought the sun rose in your eyes

And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave

To the night and the empty skies

The first time ever I lay with you

I felt your heart beat so close to mine

I thought our joy would fill the earth

And last 'till the end of time

...if you only knew what was on my mind

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am home again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am whole again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am young again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away I will always love you

However long I stay I will always love you

Whatever words I say I will always love you

I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am free again

Whenever I'm alone with you

You make me feel like I am clean again

However far away I will always love you

However long I stay I will always love you

Whatever words I say I will always love you

I will always love you

However far away I will always love you

However long I stay I will always love you

Whatever words I say I will always love you

I'll always love you

I'll always love you

Cause I love you

My Shadow Days Are Over

Did you know that you could be wrong

And swear you’re right

Some people been known to do it all their lives

But you find yourself alone


Just like you found yourself before


Like I found myself in pieces

On the hotel floor

Hard times help me see

I’m a good man with a good heart

Had a tough time, got a rough start

And I finally learned to let it go

"Vultures" On My Green Shutter

Some of us, we're hardly ever here

The rest of us, we're born to disappear

How do I stop myself from

Being just a number

How will I hold my head

To keep from going under

Down to the wire

I wanted water

But I'll walk through the fire

If this is what it takes

To take me even higher

Then I'll come through

Like I do

When the world keeps

Testing me, testing me, testing me

Covered In Rain

In these days with the world gettin colder

I spend more time sleeping over

Than I’d planned

Tonight we're gonna order in

Drinkin wine and watchin CNN

It’s dark, I know

But then again, it's the brightest thing I've got

When I'm covered in rain, rain

When I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
