[marigold]

So distant
And no reply
Fading away
There’s no goodbye
Are you receiving
Am I still here
Trying to understand
Why you’re still there
On and off
See who’s there
With another name
You know I care
In circles we go
Starting over again
No reason to wait
Where do we begin?

[marigold]

Trapped in a shell
A fortress of pain
Fire engulfs every cell
Then droplets appear
A kind of distraction
A mystery unsolved
Trying to function
When it’s all too much
Blocking the idea
Put it out of the mind
Live without fear
Get out of the trap

[marigold]

Keep it inside
Bottled and corked
While it festers
A complicated mess

What is left to say
Will it be heard
A rough landing
On common ground

Get up and walk on
Continue on another path
Detach from this feeling
Find some valid meaning

I can’t find an official site on this, but apparently they are playing a Woodstock festival in Brazil (why this is gonna be in Brazil I don’t know) but it would be great for those South American fans who have been waiting so long to see SP again.

I didn’t realise that was you in the helicopter that day Arthur

……….

Balance of opposing thoughts
Movement between rhythm and form
Thriving in the midst of chaos
Yet skimming on the surface

Turn towards the sun
Bathe in this circumstance
Reflecting abundant generosity
Look into the face of expression

The expression in the heart
The time has come to make things right <— oops (stolen lyric)
The surface has only been scratched
Bring it out into the light

[marigold]

Emotions a tangled piece of mesh
Wrapped around the heart
Don’t let it get too tight
Free yourself from these binds

[marigold]

I just got a confirmation email they probably had a few to get through – and I imagine they would only have one or 2 admin people working on it.

[marigold]

i called the store today. an email will be going out tomorrow informing people if they got one or didnt[/quote:3qkg5n7o]

My credit card has been charged by them so I certainly hope I got one!

[marigold]

it’s not listed on that site anymore… I guess they sold their quota?

[marigold]

Fragments of a dream
Following a sign
Beneath the doubting moon
Echoing in rhyme

A sense of loss awoken
Too late to start again
Give it a chance
Nothing left to remain

Whispers to the stars
Falling down to earth
Burnt up in the reality
Find out what its worth

Collective Soul – \"The World I Know\"

Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don’t know why.

Are we listening?
Hymns of offering.
Have we eyes to see?
Love is gathering.
All the words that I’ve been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one.

So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
‘Cause it’s the world I know.
It’s the world I know.

[marigold]

This desolate and broken place
A haunting echo of a dream
Reminiscent of another time
Where no one hears you scream

Observing the deep shadows
Fog swirling above the trees
Atoms of chaos colliding
In the memories of our needs

So swallow it down
This attempt to shut it out
And when the time comes
There’ll be no chance to doubt

[marigold]

the universe conspires
forces against us
there’s no connection
a theme to discuss

find a way in
try each doorway
what’s left to find
nothing but hearsay

anchored in the cold
wait to set sail
what’s the destination
move onward through the tale

[marigold]

Hope dies on its own
Towards the land’s end
Standing at the edge
Fears circling above

Choosing direction
Blissfully unaware
Answers to be given
Along this journey of fools

Step off into the unknown
Freefalling feeling
It’s a long way to go
And no one ever knows

Go to hell and back
Cleanse away the pain
What a sacrifice to make
To find what you seek

[marigold]

This sacred land
Of snow and forest
Green hills and valleys
And mists that cling
Still the echoes sound
Ancestors’ voices
Painting their new lives
With the land as canvas
Handing down stories
Carving out traditions
Creating their memories
Weaving their journey

[marigold]

Looking out of the skylight
Secret whispers of the clouds
Bringing the past to light
As the shadows disappear

Looking out over the sea
Something on the horizon
Beckoning, to guide me
And leave the past behind

Looking for further clues
Something in the surrounds
Blinded by what to choose
A new way, a new chance

[marigold]

OpShop – Maybe

So what’s this big secret you can’t tell me
I don’t wanna piece of this

Haven’t we all had enough
Enough for one day
I don’t wanna argue with you
You’ve got me shiverin’ in my spine

If everything turned out as we had said
We wouldn’t have to sit through any of this
Maybe I would be a better fit in my own skin

I’m not gonna try to divide or ignore you
And the pieces of the puzzle that never seem to fit

I’m not playin’ hangman with you
I’ve run out of letters, let alone words
You’ve got me shiverin’ in my spine

If everything turned out as we had said
We wouldn’t have to sit here talkin’ like this
Maybe I would be a better fit in my own skin
Maybe

If everything turned out as we had planned
We wouldn’t have to go through any of this
Maybe it’ll be more simple than you could ever think

So stay right where you are
We’re snoozin’ through an alarm
Make no sudden movements
Just tell me where we are
Cause here I am
There you are
Snoozin’ through an alarm
Snoozin’ through an alarm

If everything turned out as we had said
We wouldn’t have to go through any of this
Maybe

Maybe(oh)
Maybe (oh)
Maybe (oh)
Oh

Visitors

Strange beings
These humans
Some in a rush
Some sit around
Doing nothing
And they eat
Everything up
On the land
In the seas
Very wasteful
And smelly too
Lets leave these
Strange beings
To their own mess

[marigold]

Something borrowed from the past
Can it be forever broken
Time zone wavelength
Correlation hits the spot
Continuum ad infinitum
Broken into segments
The arc finds its way
A diversion in time
Split off to another dimension
Pick up on the vibration
A thought trapped in the mind
Keep it there for now
While the sun still shines
Save it for a rainy day

[marigold]

Why is it hidden
Something under the covers
Feelings swollen with pregnant faith
It knows no boundaries
Disregards imperfections
Shadows of doubt
Darken the truth
Keep the arrows of indecision
Locked away in time
Distant light on the horizon
It’s a new day
With new consequences
Murmurs of the past finding strength
What you know now
Bound up in these tangled webs
The waves of discussion
An ocean so wide
We’ll make it across
A droplet of hope lies in wait
Asleep til the time is right
Wake up
Its time to go

[marigold]

Faith No More – Ashes to Ashes

I want them to know it’s me
It’s on my head
I’ll point the finger at me
It’s on my head
Give it all to you
Then I’ll be closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I’ll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I’ll see you
I will let you shout no more
It’s on my head
I’ll pick you up from the floor
It’s on my head
Give it all to you
Then I’ll be closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I’ll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I’ll see you
Give the same to me then I’ll be closer, closer
Give the same to me then I’ll be closer, closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I’ll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
Give the same to me then I’ll be closer

[marigold]

Sounds of summer drift away
Burnt amber rustling in the wind
Moon charms and sunkissed dreams
Pleasures derived from simple things

Clouds on the horizon
Hollowed out landscapes
Burning away as sacrifice
We enter the wintry realm

……………………………………….

In the ethers tragic here I lie
Aurora crackling in the sky
A slumber deeper than the thought
Of a prize that could never be bought

Gossamer strands holding still
Tied to the promise of my own will
To the further fields we’ll go
Crossed with a black and white rainbow

Burnt with innocence
Blamed with consequence
There’s peace somewhere other than here
Seeking solace far away but so near

(yes, slightly SP inspired)

[marigold]

I like the title.

[marigold]

Searching
What lies inside your heart?
The dreams you dare to awake
The dark shadows lying within
The desire that never dies

Is it further than your mind can reach?
Can your soul be strong enough?
Listen to your inner strength
A guiding voice that needs to speak

Find the calm within your heart
Ask your soul to find the way
Take a chance to end the struggle
A step forward into the unknown
