You are an alien
Wide eyed and collected as can be
Cruise down your path man
I can tell that you are as blue as the sea
As the color of the sea
Today is new
Crisp air and a light shade of blue
Skies in a bubble
Seen from the ground on the planet we call home
It's the color of the sea
You could say to another
"How do I look?"
You could look in the mirror
To gauge how long it took
To face yourself in the eyes
Watch them shift their shapes
Move a few steps closer
Take a plunge a real dive
Into the colors of the sea

Tell Me

Who’s side are you on?
(I’m torn asunder.)
Live a life for breathing eyes.
(I’m growing thinner.)
Give your soul to powers.
(Make a payment.)
They demand your answer.
(What’s it to you?)
Tell me, what’s my name?
Tell me, what’s a shape?
Tell me, what’s my name?
Tell me how to accelerate.
I am one of those,
(Just can’t get straight.)
Yet I seem to know
(What I can’t say.)
Try to find some peace of mind.
(I’m at the bottom.)
I’m running out of time.
(Keep it moving.)
Tell me, what’s my name?
Tell me, what’s a shape?
Tell me how to accelerate.
Tell me, who here knows just one damn thing?
Look at all the strangers.
(It’s all the same.)
Can you trust another?
(Try to remember.)
No one’s got a clue.
(Don’t know not to.)
Let it all pass on by.
Tell me, what’s my name?
Tell me, what’s a shape?
Tell me how to accelerate.
Tell me, who here knows just one damn thing?

Bring your parents back.
Let them know you have found truth in all the lies they’ve been told.
Hold your head up high bring your nature to light,
prove your healing do what feels right.
Gleaming chambers don’t hold life.
Though it’s been awhile don’t you stay in line,
time will take with ease what is yours.
Gleaming chambers don’t hold life.
Why can’t I make you hear?
Far away from arms reach with different speech.
Waves of fear and joy make your eyes clear.
Wash away words and cold white sheets.
Keep your feet in flux, earth can be soft to touch.
Walls may rise but walls may crumble.
Gleaming chambers don’t hold life.
These walls don’t belong to you.
They owe comfort but not truth.

I can't tell what the problem is
You may not be it
There seems to be something wrong with the world
Or in my head
Is there anything new here?
I try to tell you all my fears
It's always the same
It feels like a game I don't wanna play
This realm of trust verses instinct
What cannot be heard cannot be told
My ears aren't eyes
My eyes not a nervous system
A nervous plane wreck
I'm pulling together
What was lost was torn between your hands
Is there anything new here in this realm of trust verses instinct?
I try to tell your ears what they wanna hear
Let them hear about a dream they never saw
We were held in the sky
My body's cage was fractured
Like twice before

What do you see in me?
I think we should slow down.
Maybe take some time out.
Find a way to satisfy, our need to feel alive and,
just breathe, instead we shatter.
I think we should slow it down.
What do you see in being?
What do you know?
Are you sure you can’t grow?
We try to wrap our hands around,
with our heads stretched out in the clouds.
We left behind our tactile minds, jagged, our worlds shattered
footsteps and eyes unguided.
I think we should slow it down.
