Been Time

single-minded in his day
all of his streets tinted gold
untested, unarrested, underground.
and for the strangers he will sing
clear and proud, till his song runs out.
separate, passion over action,
expecting more.
it isn't too late to change our ways
it is time, oh it's been time
to ask for forgiveness
and join in a mission of love
these things run off his mind
leave the heart behind
as everything above is compromised.
predilection for perfection is hard to overcome.
counting the wasted hours, intention gone.
hallelujah for the kind of one
who admits when they are wrong.
just have to be hopeful
it's time to start sowing this garden.
it isn't too late to change our ways
it is time, oh it's been time
to ask for forgiveness
and join in a mission of love
racing down the corridor of simple blessings,
forgotten already why his legs are so
levitated over any mention of his brothers and sisters
who couldn't get in yet.
start to realize he no longer has the option
of being silent and being free.
it isn't too late to change our ways
it is time, oh it's been time
to ask for forgiveness
and join in a mission of love

Wild Hair

woman with the wild hair
and the gorgeous smile
every time i see you i am renewed
it's true
i stayed with you on the line
when you needed an ear
now i see your strut
bouncing on your love
feeding on your funky bright blue blood
woman with the wild hair
and the gorgeous smile
every time i see you i am renewed
it's true
woman with the many lives
and the chestnut charm
i must confess
you always find a way to hollow out my emptiness
your simplest gestures are my second thought
basking in your gaze i sing
la da da da da
something i wouldn't trade
for all the spliffs and all the riches
all the women all of the religion
woman with the wild hair
and the gorgeous smile
every time i see you i am renewed
it's true
remember when i didn't ask no questions
and you saved me from that acquiescence?
woman with the wild hair
and the gorgeous smile
every time i see you i am renewed
it's true
woman with the many lives
and the chestnut charm
i must confess
you always find a way to hollow out my emptiness

Destroyer

it started out with sincerity
the whole production
special seduction
he'd compliment your style
make you feel that there was power
in your smile
that morning when he sang for you
didn't ask you for a thing
and the way he touched your midnight skin
and slid between your fingers
he got you, but
he's no good
he's no good
just walk away before it's too late
he's no good
he's no good
don't be fooled you don't deserve to be hurt
blindsided by a solid wall
one you fear you may not pass at all
he wanted depth
but with the future pushed aside
and now he panics when there's
nowhere else to hide, cuz
he's no good
he's no good
just walk away before it's too late
he's no good
he's no good
don't be fooled you don't deserve to be hurt
he's made up his mind
as if gravity don't mean a thing
the shattering is worse from so high
you think he'd know by know
you think he'd show somehow, but
he's no good
he's no good
just walk away before it's too late
he's no good
he's no good
don't be fooled you don't deserve to be hurt
he don't like
he don't like
to be the bad guy but it't habit forming
he don't know
he don't know
know his own strength till he's broken something
he don't like
he don't like
all this destruction
he don't like
he don't like
all this destruction
destruction
