Past, I Quit You

Under the weight of your love I felt small and cold
I wanted to climb up inside your womb to feel warm and whole
I want so badly to live free from any thought of me.
Past, I quit you.

Sweet Lord

Sweet lord, are you disappointed by what's inside my head
when I dream - but I can't help what I see
when you lay me down to sleep
Holy is your righteous name who designed her righteous frame
I want more of you in me but that frame is all I see
I am charmed by fruits of fields that
are not yet mine to taste
I try to always do what's right
sometimes

Have You Seen

Morning time and you're not awake
Wake and rise to meet the new day
If the moon is still in your eyes
bat it out before you rise
Have you seen?
If a child's born without sight
does not mean that he is blind
Take a love that's given to you
Don't look back over your shoulder
Have you seen?

Temples
03:44
|
|

|
Everything is still
All your lights are out
With no one else around
what do you think about
Parting clouds
mountains burning
voice of God
loving better
Gentleness will come to me
Singing to me low and sweet
Having felt you in a dream
Closer to reality
In the middle of the night
I hear you whisper in my mind
and I know there's peace inside
when your spirit's laying over mine
Temples move me.

Glowing Flower

I had a dream that you were looking at me
Your body was bare so everyone could see
No veil could hold, cover or contain
Such loveliness, glory without shame
(sister, mother, lover, daughter of another)
And in the night of vision without sight
Your hands were laid upon the whole of heart and mind
I recognize the spirit never dies
Whole, complete and pure outside of time
(who, then, can see what anything will mean
but the divine eye)
How you have gone with love on your lips
I heard the words you spoke but was not
Allowed to remember one of them
How you have gone with God on your chest
I heard the words you spoke but was not
Allowed to remember one of them
Fire fall on me, cloud of mystery overhead
Have I been lead from my mind?
Was the sky opened even momentarily?
Divinity shown to me.
There in the daylight, in the van with eyes opened
I tried to comprehend what I saw
Fear or confusion often had its way before
I saw the Glowing Flower

I'm Dead
03:58
|
|
||
|
Peaceful dawning are you near
Or are you here, and I cannot see you
Nothing's easy, nothing's clear
But I'm not here for claiming pleasure
Sacred lover, cover me
I am made free full in your arms
Seasons pass like seasons do
There's only you and my willing heart.
Nothing is mine.

Mysterious Ways
06:38
|
|
||
|
I want to see colors changing on me
Nothing around - there's no light, there's no sound
Beautiful face that can not be seen
Oh nurturer, will you say what it means?
I do not work in mysterious ways
When I'm quiet my vision returns
|

Clean Grave
03:12
|
|
||
|
I've lived with a child's tight grip
on some darkness for a light
So then I went on with eyes thin
I went on with tough skin over my heart
Clean grave, thank you for my new name
for the new day that you've made
Now I see what love will mean
with hands empty I can love you

Sometimes

Sometimes illusions can break your heart
In the confusion, where to start

You Should Live With as Much Guilt as I Do
by Logan Brown
Logan makes deeply emotional, cathartic, "experience" music... put on headphones, lay in a dark room, and get absorbed... he's really good at this

Bailey Miller is really good at a lot of things. rich, atmospheric, electronic music is high on that list.

Corey writes great songs and knows how to put them across. He's one of those guys that I can't believe I actually know.
