Would You Care To Guess?

I hear the back door creak longer than I can stand
I feel the breaching pulses of another land
Paranoia sets in, my head starts to spin
Glassy eyed, mirror minded by a friend of mine
Animal on my back with its own mind
Better keep him occupied
Monkey on my back, sends chills up my spine
Would you care to guess?
Am I in my right mind?
These walls won't reflect
We pass through them like the light
The footing's soft, the eyes fall off
Another victim for the animal's trough
And I close my eyelids
This tree is alive, hero in disguise
War between the plants and artificial light
Turn out all the lights, hide ourselves from sight
Would you care to guess?
Am I in my right mind?
These walls won't reflect
We pass through them like the light
The footing's soft, the eyes fall off
Another victim for the animal's trough
And I close my eyelids

You've got my eyes, but the way your shoes are tied is all wrong
And you're a pilot in the expanses of one's mind
The blue and red is causing bright 3D impressions of time
All the while you sit back with a blindfold across your eyes
Airplane engine sounds, voices in the clouds
(Delay, relay, E-8, elate)
Seen clearer skies, but I admit, this could be fault of mine
Can't help but notice in the cabin that I am child-sized
I said, "Where should we head?" without meaning for the words to rhyme
And you responded causing excess fluctuations of signs
Airplane engine sounds, voices in the clouds
(Delay, relay, E-8, elate)
I can't get me out of this fucking plane
And I don't know why I got on
Don't even recall ever getting on
This flying piece of garbage
Found my boarding pass
Growing in the grass
Now its hidden in my secret garden
And I'm falling back down towards the freshly...

My foot fell off the dirt path
I fell in the snow
But my shoes just kept walking
I followed them home
My house was underwater
And my lungs were too tired from the ocean
I can't see my toes
The sediment, the glows
And my brain eats its nose
A cloud in the sky
Was shaped like a horseshoe
With the properties of metal
Where lightning strikes had been queued
I held there suspended in air
All day long (until noon)
Reach up towards the ground
My hands want to sow
And my brain eats its nose
A hole in the oak tree
Lead straight to my current thoughts
A wall lined with bookshelves
Covered with cosmonaut's
Letters to wives
Home on the Earth they call home
Mission status is gold
My head wants its home
And my brain eats its nose
I can't find my brink
'cause I don't wanna
Sunny day, refuse to stay
I hope I'm in a coma
Glowing eyes, will chastise
Anyone with thunder thighs
Vertigo, now takes hold
I will not grow old

My head spun into the ocean
And floated on top of the water
My mouth was too full to wield confession
Only the fish could hear
The rain came down from the badlands
And rested on top of the water
My mind is slowly drowning
Only the deep can hear
Where can you run to?
What can you run from?
If nothing's chasing you
His legs broke free from the wood plank
That held him apart from the mad sea
His countenance turned to face us
No fear in his eyes, only vengeance
The curse that he uttered weighed heavy
As our captain plunged deep in the mad sea
Never again will we find land
As long as our minds remained
Where can you run to?
What can you run from?
If nothing's chasing you
Where can you run to?
What can you run from?
If nothing's chasing you

A dirty look, an open book
A crooked crook's illusions
He's here to kill, run for the hills
A narrow mind's conclusion
A twitching brow, he's sitting still
The shells now travel through him
Just a man off a bus
Stranger to mass confusion
Where are their hearts?
Heavy in hand
What makes the blood flow under their skin?
(repeated)
A shallow hole, a restless soul
A mind's rejuvenation
He's entered town, welcoming crowd
Whats this hallucination?
Pass him a drink, no time to think
This crowd's new proclamation
He razed this town in the sand
No need for explanation
Where are their hearts?
Heavy in hand
What makes the blood flow under their skin?
(repeated)
Where are their hearts?
Heavy in hand
What makes the blood flow under their skin?

The rain sows the morning
While we sow the eve
The crops grow to the sound of
The rain on the leaves
The pattern paints a picture
That the eyes can't recieve
The drums in our ears, lose track of the years
And the crow counts, "1,2,3"
Dear Mother Teresa
The storeroom grows heavy
As we live out the years
The farmhands kept busy
While the sun disappears
By chance if the cattle
Are lead far from here
The floodgates will open
While the worlds not so clear
Dear Mother Teresa
The fiery glowing sea
Washes deep down the roots of the dying trees
The sky begins to bleed
Quintessence release ether's beauty
Your eyes will cease to see
And your soul will soon look down on these
Its past, then present, then future
While the lights beat (while the lights beat)
Dear Mother Teresa
Dear Mother Terese

I cannot find
An exit doorway of the mind
And I will not die
Behind my own eyes
This forlorn path laid out
Leads me to be fearful
And makes me doubt if I can trust
The guides encountered, maybe reencountered
(Who is she?)
Who is she?
Who seems able to calm the madness of the sea
And pass it to this familiar and strange species
It travels like all the veins in the leaves
Its a feeling foreign and cold, not so bold,
Clarity
What is the goal of a man without?
But dirt underneath the fingernails
Left or right on this road matters
More than what lies at the end
It appears as if my mind has sent another
And I wait for subconscious one liners
I can feel that somethings different here
At times your shadow disappears
And I'm left to sense the presence of Creator
(Who is she?)
Who is she?
Materialized from nature at my feet
Radiance emitting in UV waves I can see
Unlocking the senses ordinarily hidden from human beings
How could she have gotten here?
So I ask.
She seems able to calm the madness of the sea
And pass it to this familiar and strange species
It travels like all the veins in the leaves
Its a feeling foreign and cold, not so bold,
Clarity
What is the purpose of life?
To be the ears and eyes
What is the meaning of time?
To ignore the snake's (man's) device
Why do the plants grow outside?
To escape the home's delight
Why do the children bother with fright?
To cope with their bond with the night
Why am I captive of my mind?
To learn the science behind (one thought jumping)
What makes the sun shine?
The firing of Earth's collective mind
Why do the mothers cry?
They bear the fruit of new life
What is the purpose of new life?
"To be the ears and eyes and conscience of
The creator of the universe, you fools"

Another sign of life on Earth
Planted by the minds of another
Took me to be their home's lost leader
Could I find another seed to feed her
The goddess of nature
A viewing room behind the eyes
A look into the vortex on the outside
I could hear the words of my creator
Through the voice of one beautiful beyond all human recognition
The goddess of nature

I leaned too far off the crest of the Earth
And fell through bounds of the holes in my head
Some dug by rabbits and their upturned turf
Now where am I? Don't know why (Don't know why)
I've seen more than you
(repeated)
Analyzed by the ignorant stiffs
Who tell that I won't come back from this trip
They use their minds like enclosed schools of fish
Now where am I? Don't know why (Don't know why)
I've seen more than you
(repeated)
