wake up to begin anew. new game plus starts here.

You are my moon: great ghostly eye Still holding to float mostly on eye I still hear her sing… You have me staring up at night paying debt back on a soul You are the force behind the tides You won't let go Let go You are my moon and change of tides Still whispering “Pull me down out from the sky” Yeah yeah, I’ll do anything you say And scared I can’t get away.” Under spell of lunar glare Taking all of it on, even if it’s not true Force my eyes become aware (“you are my moon”) Now I see you all too clear (“you are my moon”) Primed to escape Tell me what I want to hear Let me go now Feel me rising up up above the sea I... fallllll (“Nobody loves you and you're gonna need me”) You are my moon control the tides Still chasing me “Drag you with me to the sky!!” But I hit shore... “I want more” Tide comes in But you won’t ever pull me out...never again

Trust, leave it to my eyes Prying, see what I might find Just behind the shrouding soundscape See and feel much more Leveled by this moment of bliss Colors speak in words What they say.... Ahh" "Watch and observe, lest we our way... Ahh" Through the iris Prism unfold Tones and textures Green and gold Through the open iris A flowing prism will unfold Tones and countless textures Of shaded green and gold

Coming home Feel the wind blow Far I've flown Where I know Where I know we're Gently drifting low From up high above A feather glows And shows us a Love that we call home And shows us enough To come back home Passing on through Embracing so few why we're choosing this old view Don't go Coming home (away I go) Feel the wind blow Far I've flown (I've flown) Where I know Coming home (away I go) Coming home Passing on through Embracing so few Gently drifting low From up high above A feather glows And shows us a Love that we call home And shows us enough To come back home
