Insignificance


All in all it's no one's fault. Excuses turn to carbon walls.
Blame it all on chemical intercourse.
The swallowed seeds of arrogance breeding in the thoughts of ten-thousand fools that fight irrelevance.

The full moon is dead skin. The one down here's wearing thin.
So set up the ten pins as the human tide rolls in.
Like a ball that's spinning.

Bombs dropping down overhead. On the ground.
It's instilled to want to live.
Bombs dropping down. Please forgive our hometown in our insignificance.

"Turn the jukebox up," he said. Dancing in irreverence.
Play C-3. Let the song protest.

The plates began to shift. Perfect lefts come rolling in.
I was alone and far away, hey. When I heard the band start playing.
On the lip they take off.

Bombs dropping down overhead. Underground.
It's instilled to want to live.
Bombs dropping down. Please forgive our hometown in our insignificance.

Feel like resonance of distance. In the blood the iron lies.

It's instilled to want to live.
Bombs dropping down. Please forgive our hometown in our insignificance.
Oh, in our insignificance, oh.

another from Binaural...

Grievance

Have a drink they're buying,...
Bottom of, bottle of denial,...

Big guy,... big eye,... watching me,...
Have to wonder what it sees,...
Progress,... laced with,... ramifications,...
Freedoms because,...

Pull the innocent from a crowd,...
Raise the sticks then bring em down,...
If they fail to obey,...
If they fail to obey,...

For every tool they lend us,... a loss of independence.

Pledge my grievance to the flag,...
Cause you don't give blood,... then take it back again,...
We're deserving of something more.

Progress,... taste it,... invest-it-all
Champagne breakfast for everyone,...

Break the innocent when they're proud,...
Raise the stakes,... then bring em down,...
If they fail to obey,...
If they fail to obey,...

Pledge your grievance to the flag,...
Aw c'mon, don't give blood,... then take it back again,...
We're deserved,... something more.

I wanna breathe,...
I wanna see,...
I wanna taste,... everyone I see.

I wanna rob them,...
I wanna run to see,...
I wanna learn,... to be,...
I just wanna be,...

I wanna feel,... alive,... as long as I am free.

Red Mosquito

Watched out the window with a red mosquito.
I was not allowed to leave the room.
I saw the sun go down and now it's coming up.
Somewhere in the time between I was bitten.
Must have been the devil.
He was just paying me a little visit.
Reminding me of his presence.
And letting me know he's a waiting. Ohh, yeah.

Red man's your neighbor. Call it behavior.
While you're climbing up slippery hills.
Two steps ahead of him. Punctures in your neck.
Hovering just above your bed. (x2)
I was bitten. Must have been the devil.
He was just paying me a little visit.
Reminding me of his presence.
And letting me know he's a waiting.
Always waiting. Ohh, yeah.

If I had known then what I know now.

Faithful

Plaque on the wall says that no one's slept here
It's rare to come upon a bridge that has not been around
Or been stepped on
Whatever the notions, we laced in our prayers
The man upstairs is used to all of this noise
I'm through with screaming

And echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
Like echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it {4X}

And echoes nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes {2X}
We're faithful, we all believe, we all believe it {3X}
So faithful, we all believe, we all believe it

M.Y.T.H. is…
Belief in the game controls that keeps us in a box of fear
We never listen
Voice inside so drowned out
Drowned you are, you are, you are a furry thing
And everything is you
Me you, you me, it's all related
What's a boy to do?
Just be darling and I will be too
Faithful to you

No Way

There's a token of my openness.
Of my need to not disappear.
How I'm feeling, so revealing to me.
I found my mind too clear.
I just need someone to be there for me.
I just want someone to be there for me.

All the static in my attic-a.
Shoots down my side nerve.
To the ocean of my platitudes, longitudes, latitudes.
It's so absurd.
I just need someone to be there for... Yeah.
I just want someone to be there for...
Someone to be there for...

Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference.
I'm not trying to make a difference.
I'll stop trying to make a difference. No way.
I'll stop trying to make a difference.
I'm not trying to make a difference.
I'll stop trying to make a difference. No way.

Ooh, let's call it an angel... (x3)

Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference.
I'm not trying to make a difference.
I'll stop trying to make a difference. No way.
Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference.
I'm not trying to make a difference.
I'm not trying to make a difference. No way.
No way. No way.

Let's call in an angel.

Music is great to help us get through this. this song seems to make me reflect the most.

Indifference

i will light the match this mornin', so i won't be alone
watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
i will stand arms outstretched, pretend i'm free to roam
i will make my way, through, one more day in hell...
how much difference does it make
how much difference does it make...
i will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
i'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
i will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
hey i won't change direction, and i won't change my mind
how much difference does it make
how much difference does it make..
how much difference...
i'll swallow poison, until i grow immune
i will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
how much difference
how much difference
how much difference does it make
how much difference does it make...

Welcome To The Cruel World - Ben Harper


Welcome to the cruel world
hope you find your way
welcome to the cruel world
hope you find your way
it's a cruel world
try to enjoy your stay

Yes it is a cruel world
when you're tryin' to get by
it's a cruel world
when you've seen the look in their eye
makes life hard living
but I'm so scared to die

Welcome to the cruel world
welcome
welcome

Don't know how
we've lasted here so long
there must be more good than bad
or we'd already be gone
and if you get up to Heaven
before I do
I'm gonna tell ya
It's gonna be cruel there too

You can't hide from this cruel world
cause there is no place to run
you can't hide from the cruel world
there just is no place to run
it's been cruel from the beginning
it will be cruel when we're done

So when I'm gone
I will gladly say goodbye
when I am gone
I will gladly say goodbye
and if you want to feel me
put your hands up to the sky

Welcome to the cruel world
welcome
welcome
hope you find your way
try to enjoy your stay

Fell on Black Days

Whatsoever I've feared has come to life
Whatsoever I've fought off became my life
Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now I'm doing time
Cause I fell on black days

Whomsoever I've cured I've sickened now
Whomsoever I've cradled I've put you down
I'm a search light soul they say
But I can't see it in the night
I'm only faking when I get it right
Cause I fell on black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate

So what you wanted to see good has made you blind
And what you wanted to be yours has made it mine
So don't you lock up something that you wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
No, not tying
No, not tying

I sure don't mind a change
But I fell on black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate

I have seen PJ do this song so many times in concert. I guess it means more now then ever.

I am a patriot

and the rivers shall open for the righteous
and the rivers shall open for the righteous
and the rivers shall open for the righteous, someday
i went walking, with my brother
and he wondered, oh, how i am
said what i believe with my soul
ain't what i see with my eyes
and there's no turning back this time
i am a patriot, and i love my country
because my country is all i know
i wanna be with my family
people who understand me
i got no place else to go...i am a patriot...
i went walking, with my girlfriend
she looked so fine, i said baby what's on your mind
she said i wanna run like the lions
released from their cages
released from the rages burning in my soul tonight...i am a patriot...
and i ain't no communist, and i ain't no socialist
and i ain't no capitalist, and i ain't no imperialist
and i ain't no democrat, i sure ain't no republican either
i only know one party, and that is freedom, i am, i am, i am
i am a patriot, and i love my country
because my country is all i know
and the rivers shall open for the righteous
and the rivers shall open for the righteous
and the rivers shall open for the righteous, someday
someday, someday, someday...

Long Road

and i wished for so long, cannot stay
all the precious moments, cannot stay
it's not like wings have fallen, cannot stay
but still something's missing, i cannot say yeah
holding hands are daughters and sons
and their faiths are falling down down down down
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
will i walk the long road the long road
cannot stay the long road
there's no need to say goodbye say goodbye
all the friends and family
all the memories going round round round
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
and the wind keeps roarin'
and the sky keeps turning grey
and the sun is setting
the sun will rise another day
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
i have wished for so long
how i wish for you today
will i walk the long road
we all walk the long road
will i walk the long road
we all walk the long road
