Burning Star 02:49
(written in inspired moment following night star watching.. scribbled in orange crayon hastily on notebook paper... ) Burning Star- 'the sky is black and creeping.. the stars are sliding like sloths.. in their spots... the stars don't ask questions.. they burn, burn, until they go out.. I wish I could be a burning star... and blind you with light not doubt... My tragic stars... don't ask questions.. please please please.. I wish I could be a burning star.. and blind you and find you and shine you with light not doubt..

Petals Fall 04:42
Petals fall in and around you frozen and they melt into coldness as they dance.. hours and minutes and second chances we flounder in spite of our need now pity is what you gave me and maybe it's what I asked for and perhaps love is just a word thought I could write you a simple song but as usual I go on way too long I'm just usin' another thing as a wall to you all you can help me I can help you you can help me I can help you

remember when? walking? you asked me which way? did you not notice? my nervous strain? how exists there time? which shimmers through my mind? of all you were and will? please, do as you wish and I, will be still and find not a piece of mask as something to fill up the task of what's missing you my dear represent all that is dear and painfully clear the clock says it's ticking and it's been losing years

Let Us Be 04:17
westinghouse has cut the power water locked up in the tower grounds are closed they're not for walking I think someone forgot to pay the bill look out your window see the sky and you'll know that your mind is mine you'll know why you'll know why let us be patient when things are moving slowly... let us be patient when things are moving too quickly let us be patient when things are moving slowly let us be....
