Is Wayne Mosh Redux

Watch her as her smile fades An idiot savant plays Rachmaninoff with champagne Composers of the last wave Now calculate in time space Your science fiction heart waits For Christ to reappear here Underneath the bar Now Mary Poppins’ suitcase Packed full of children’s playthings Commemorating last days Of spoonful’s and of stars Now symbols of a new age That say “we’ve come to this place With slightly altered heartaches To prove we are alive” And I think they hear us now The Watchers in the shy With telescopes on us They’re waiting for a sign So won’t they kindly reach down And save us before we drown And take us in their care Far away from here Anytime her smile fades… I think they hear us now

Kepler186 03:36
Can you breathe underwater Would you like to believe that all the castles you’re dreaming of are in cities that live under the sea Oh the jaguar you’re saving still remembers me I guess the best we can hope is to live in the minds of the monsters we chase into the deep Of the monsters that we start to believe On land we’re living like we are crazy Cause you know that we believe that underwater we can breathe

You’re an apocalypse lately You’ve got me swimming for shore You sent a prophet to save me I never opened the door Now all the good ones are leaving And they don’t even wave And you just sit there believing That you came here to save And all the frantic reporters Were left taking notes Bout how you blew down the city When you gave up the ghost You always said it was nothing Just a story you tell I never knew you were bluffing I played the hand I was dealt I saw you in your Sunday best waiting by the radio tower I was lost by the side of nowhere I saw you in your Sunday best waiting by the radio tower I was lost by the side of nowhere I was lost when I found nowhere Oh you’ve been waiting too long You always said it was nothing Just a story you tell I never knew you were bluffing I played the hand I was dealt I saw you in your Sunday best waiting by the radio tower I was lost by the side of nowhere I saw you in your Sunday best waiting by the radio tower I was lost by the side of nowhere I was lost when I found nowhere

I take the pills before I sleep from a bottle by my bed Two that help me breathe, one for the monster in my head And I don’t really like my job, but it occupies my day Now and then I feel the lose of what I sacrifice for pay So now virtually I’m alive inside a computer screen A pixelated better me, that don’t feel any pain Now I plug into a box that holds the universe that hold the universe All the doors are locked and nothing ever hurts I’m afraid to leave the house, I’m afraid of what I’ll say So I never let me out because I’m afraid I’ll run away So now virtually I’m flying in a fantasy A digital codex of me that never is afraid All my hangs ups and let downs The panic that I’ve found Came over me subtly So anything that I dream The superman me Comes alive on the scree

Joy Leaves 04:23
I was waiting with a knife in my back. Called my doctor he said it’s all in my head That I’d feel better if I learned to forgive Hallelujah sure will delude ya Until the spaceship came to take us home Just like angels on white horses they rode I stayed calm inside I thought I’d explode They look like Jesus, my heart just freezes I take the medicine to shut up the noise To kill what’s in me I pretend it’s my choice I’m getting postcards from that still small voice They say “ hey man we’re drowning, the sirens sounding” Now all my heroes are just washed up and stoned This crowed station makes me feel so alone It leaves me empty when the children aren’t home Thought I was dreaming but I was bleeding… Can you, somehow fix what’s wrong with me? Can find what I believe

Hey can you help me carry a weight It’s been weighing on my mind for days I know that you could take it away and give me something real Because baby when I look in your face I know I’ve finally found me a place Where I can let go of this weight and just be nothing but me You put me back to me You put me back You take all the little pieces and find Places where they all fit right You make all the pieces All the little pieces fit right Lost, you know how crazy I have been But you put me back together again I was all alone and needing a friend And you were someone real Cause baby when I look at your face I know I’ve finally found me a place Where I can let go of this weight And just be nothing but me You put me back to me You put me back You take all the little pieces and find Places where they all fit right You make all the pieces All the little pieces fit right I was just falling apart Until I saw your eyes All the things that I lost You somehow find Then you opened the door and you let in the light.

I’m still waiting where we used to hide Kings and Ladies kiss and close their eyes Do you think you’ll come looking for me Cause the wait is making it harder to believe Walls and Bridges played on gramophone Give me stitches for a heart of stone Do you think you’ll come looking for me Cause the wait is making it harder to believe And I can’t wait here I can’t no more
8.
So in cynical land That gotta little recipe They mumble under their breath Sometimes in Japanese It goes Now I believe what I can’t see Whispers in my mind when I’m fast asleep Hallelujah Next time around you’ll find me Hallelujah And believe it’s you destiny And when you start to loose Pieces of your memory You take that recipe out And build back your belief It goes Now I believe what I can’t see Whispers in my mind when I’m fast asleep Hallelujah Next time around you’ll find me Hallelujah Next time around you’ll find me Hallelujah And believe it’s you destiny There’s suddenly a wash out when I’m close to it With ever single cop out I’m trying to forget It’s getting hard to miss I cannot picture it Will someone plus hum along Cause I’ve forgotten this song

Steel Horse 04:00
Didn’t know you had left it, til I couldn’t get of the floor The ringing in my ears let me know for sure This wholesale resurrection ain’t working anymore Could swear that I’d been drowning here before Lost keys and invitations kept us waiting at the gate Ah you act so sacrificial when you’re burying the past You get so sentimental about things not meant to last You crucify a memory as your setting up the traps All wild eyed with excuses that come to fast Lost keys and invitations kept us waiting at the gate Cold prayers and meditation ah they couldn’t lift this weight Explosions sent a shockwave up and down the street Burning bushes told us all things we could not repeat “Albuquerque” played while we hid underneath the sheets Oh this world won’t let me sleep It’s spinning on and on and on You’d know I’m better if you’d listen to me scream On and on and on Steel Horse, Steel Horse on and on and on…
