(Alright, here we go (Ahh...))
Hello, hello, hello, hello,
Good evening all,
And welcome to the show!
It’s the story of man
With a half-hearted plan
Who could do anything
He set his mind to,
Living life along a line,
But he then realized over time
He could do anything
He set his mind to,
But there was nothing
There for him to show you.
If I gave into myself,
Would I still be me?
If I lived life differently,
Who would I be?
I was young inside my mind.
I didn’t know what I wanted as mine.
I moved my life along a solid line.
Inert, I grew up blind. (tunnel vision, the price of confidence)
Stranded in my life, me tried.
Me died.
Me tried again.
Where will it end?
Can my path bend?
If I gave into myself,
Would I still be me?
If I lived life turned around,
Who would I be?
I’m a triple secret agent
For me, myself, and I.
As if the world weren’t confusing enough,
Now I’m working against me too
Like I’m a triple secret agent
For me, myself, and I,
And I don’t know who’ll win,
But I'm strugglin', strugglin',
A triple secret agent
For me, myself, and I.
As if the world weren’t tricky enough,
Now I’m working against me too
Like I’m a triple secret agent
For me, myself, and I,
And I don’t know who’ll win,
But I hope that it’s me.
[Guitar solo]
If I gave into myself,
Would I still be me? Would I still be Demetri?
If I never changed,
Which me would I be?
So why must there be
So many ways to be unhappy? (Ahh...)
In time, (In time,)
I think I found myself (I think I found myself)
After all. (After all.)

Loose Lips
02:31
|
|||
I sunk a ship once
With a fraction of truth
Aloof to the proof, but still spilling the juice
With these loose lips, the next sin
Still countin', still killin'
Recountin' my fill in the mountain of villains
Scoliosis in the shoulders of the older and the wiser
Turned to misers, frail and brittle,
Stand on top, you're in a sinkhole
Loss of control, still the bell tolls
Feed our eyes with sugared lies
Fold every mind into little lines
(Oh) then you'll find
(Oh) God's design
(Oh) in the space
(Oh) between the cracks
(Oh) looking back
(Oh) shining black
(Oh)
Fettered more or lesser for the better in my fervor
The observer knows the world turns
Take as granted that the world burns
Suck the poison from a moist urn
Fettered by a fetish prison
All this secondhand voyeurism
Disgusting gossip
Curiosity with the set intent to judge guilty
It's filthy; it fills me with rage in my young age, disengaged
At the worthless verdict's purpose
To reserve us
Keep it heard of
Thin our hurt blood
Call a bluff of
Such absurd love
Leave us silenced with the verbal violence
Making sense of sirens,
Songs so sweet, I'd buy them
Hide and seek inside them
Lost myself in such a
Superficial, endless gyrum
I can find them,
Who designed them?
Where's my mind been, what's been happenin'?
I'm still recountin' my own fill though
In this world covered up with shadows
Makes me mad, so make a light glow
The disciples of more pure gold see the sights
Oh, how they're beautiful
Far more meaningful than the menial
Knowing is the half the battle that this riff-raff lacks,
Either that or their tact or willpower’s wracked
Somestring somewhere got slacked,
And things became tangled and wack
Turn the page and earn my fate
Definition (well, isn’t this flattering)
Petty pitter-pattering
Verbal littering
Splattering, splayed on display
A la flambe, fire leading the way
Torches hungry for hate
And I only just ate
But the evil in our people feels the pain of opened eyeholes
How, though? Is the hull blown?
Will it heal sewn?
Is it ingrown? Will it regrow in the ocean?
Need a stress test? Need some bedrest?
What would be best?
I could care less without guidance
With society’s sleek battalions’ fleeting medallions
Swimming, bobbing, wishy-washy,
Floating, flopping, sinking, dropping,
Hitting, knocking, shaking, rocking,
Rinsing, drying, docking, repeating whopping flopping
Dull shocking, I’m clocking
Out… for now.

You got caught by surprise
By a guy half-shaved bald in the hallway
Advertising others singing
While he stands there to do this: [Beatbox solo]
I'm having a ball and you're wearing a wig
Playing games with sisters, littles, and bigs
And you catch a hook for my lips
And put it on your list to win them to yours
Gold star, bold you are
And it got you pretty far
You're so, so sexy
You've got such sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet flattery
Flaunting your feathers
Your clever sense of humor
Tiffany
This song is about you, baby
Tiffany
You're such an interesting lady
Tiffany
Britain invaded France
And you were all the Claire to my Francis
You got me a Chippi
And I slipped out to your car for a break
I kissed you as if to say
You unlocked a door to my heart
And that's where we started
I'd like to tell you something
And I don't mean to be crass
But suck my ass
In the grass
Right in front of Christopher Pratt
Tiffany
This song is about you, baby
Tiffany
You're such an interesting lady
Tiffany
Britain invaded France
And you were all the Claire to my Francis, aoo
We had a lot of really good times
In such a short time
Sweet lass
Partied and cuddled
Saw movies and traveled
But then there was that bad time
That really bad time
It all got nuclearly unraveled,
Alas
Ah well, suck my ass
In the grass
Right in front of Christopher Pratt
Woo, Tiffany
This song is about you, baby
Tiffany
You're such an interesting lady
Tiffany
Britain invaded France
It's a metaphor for our romance
And you were all the Claire to my Francis
You win some, you lose some
You move some, I grew some
How much did you, hon? I hope it's a ton
Call if you've got all your mind-body-soul in control
The lines are open, Tiffany

D&S (explicit)

[S:]
Gentleman on the streets
Dom in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare
He's a poet everywhere
Gentleman on the streets
Dom in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare
He's a poet everywhere
Poetry slam time.
See who makes the fastest rhymes
While acting the most fine
[D:]
It's gonna be me, cause I'm the most divine,
A host sublime, your ass is mine,
Don't ghost, go green,
Don't curse, don't whine
[S:]
You're going to make this hard,
But I can make you harder.
I'll scratch your back into shards
While you moan from the sheer ardor
[D:]
How are you gonna make me harder
When I'm of ocean water?
Not to mention, you're hotter,
Water doesn't get harder when it's hotter,
Just sloppy and wafting,
And to talk of your naughty ardor,
Your mantle's no match for my massive magnitude,
All this steam you exude is my surface,
If you get me harder,
It's because I felt you deserved it
[S:]
Magma of my magnitude turns oceans into puddles.
I'll send you steaming into the sky
Even tied up tight and huddled.
A blaze like me can't be contained,
I just let you believe it.
I'll fuck you, suck you 'til you moan,
'Til you're begging for
Another hit (another hit, another hit)
Gentleman on the streets
Dom in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare
He's a poet everywhere
[D/S:]
Gentleman (lady) on the streets
Dom (sub) in the sheets
(S)he’ll make you stop and stare
(S)he's a poet everywhere
[D:]
Shit, this is getting legit, don't quit :p
Though I wouldn't put it past ya
For the ass I'm gonna master blasting,
Splashing tsunami-style wild into the night sky,
Winter afterglow, ash we throw,
Catastrophic apocalypse, monster mix,
I'll rock this chick till her ego's nixed,
And keep the pics for my personal keep,
She'll know even when she sleeps
Who went deeper than deep,
The freakest freak in the sheets
In this tweaking freakfest, neat mess,
The best is unbeaten, don me your credence
And when the dawn sneaks, I'll be in,
Meeting your obedience with fervence
And feelings of hurting,
Squirting and swirling your magma until it drains
And I can come up with reign of the reins,
Insane with the chains,
Leave the beast slain till it wakes up again
On a new day with a clean slate
In her gamed brain, with a new lease
But the same lame chances of changing the tides,
She'll keep riding the rides
Till she's beat up inside
Still, she'll keep trying,
Though she should keep in mind
Three things about me, sex, and my rhymes:
I can't be beat,
I play for keeps,
And last but not least,
I could do it all night
[S:]
You call yourself a rapper but I call myself a poet,
You may not know it,
But my flow, it flows faster than Poe's.
I've got Wordsworth crying tiger! in the night,
But I'll be polite: you rap alright.
But I'm related to rappers who take the clubs
And the alleys keeping up tallies
Of the guys they've fucked over in battles.
I've got Ginsburg crying 'whips and chains'
As I channel his LSD-laden brain.
I won't deny that you make me moan
You've tied me down in the literal tone.
But a Tiger! Tiger! You can't keep tied down
Forevermore. I may have started out as a lamb
But now you hear me roar.
You're the king of the bed,
I won't deny it.
I'd be lying if i tried to hide it.
But words have floated through my head
Since Chaucer learned to right it.
You may fuck hard,
But I'm the bard.
Drop your cards and fold.
Give it in because you have just.
Been.
Told.
[D/S:]
Gentleman (lady) on the streets
Dom (sub) in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare (Pullin’ at her hair)
(S)he's a poet everywhere
Gentleman (lady) on the streets
Dom (sub) in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare (Pullin’ at her hair)
(S)he's a poet everywhere
[D:]
The king of the sheets, she concedes? Puhlease!
And you call me two-face McGee,
Oh tyger tyger with your fearful symmetry,
Both sides being so equally beat,
The left and the right,
The out– and inside,
The part in the dark and the part in the light,
Both parts full of fear in response
To my sleight of hands and reprimands,
But like a poet you comment
What you can't bear to face with a real life taste,
You retreat to a place that's not quite a place,
You use your words to conceal your face,
Talk is cheap, that's why poets are freelance,
Now get your fantastical answers
And put your money where your mouth's at
[S:]
Sure I'm a sub, but I still rule the school.
You're the master, the king and my jester-fool.
I am submissive cuz I'm permissive
Of your dominant position.
I take no issue with my at-knees mission.
You're the Dom but this is my dominion.
With a snap of my fingers, when I please,
I could have you on my knees.
That pleases me.
Take some power.
I have all I need.
Yes it's true, I'll make a mess of you.
But the mess of me will cover the best of you.
So bang me hard against the wall,
Push me down the dorm room hall.
Catch me when I'm about to fall
Or push me further down; toss me around.
Take me to town or take me heaven bound.
Or keep me bound. You'll never see me frown.
Just be sure you knew that I'm the one that really rules.
I am the real ruler.
These words could not be truer.
Hope I don't hit a nerve when you get the bill.
Cuz I both SERVE and serve you at my own damn will
[D:]
The bills are just silly, irrelevant trifles,
Just like your regal perceptions of titles
Exemplifying your mind's winding temple of
Pretentious portentous prolific poetic pretending
To be something more than a wipe for my rifle,
A sheath for my knife,
A cloth I get off on,
A sock for my condoms,
You're begging and kissing at the tip of my third leg,
You're kidding yourself if you think you've got a leg up
When I've got your legs up till sunup,
Get you done up with my makeup, au naturale,
I rise, you fall, like your great-great-grandma Pompeii
And her earthquakes and waves,
She made my kin great while she deflated,
Exhausted herself till nothing was left,
Just like you're doomed to be left bereft,
Spent like an IOU at a brothel,
While believing you're queen?
Well then, isn't that awful
[D/S:]
Gentleman (lady) on the streets
Dom (sub) in the sheets
(S)he’ll make you stop and stare
(S)he's a poet everywhere
Gentleman (lady) on the streets
Dom (sub) in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare (Pullin’ at her hair)
(S)he's a poet everywhere

(S)he’ll make you stop and stare
(S)he's a poet everywhere
Gentleman (lady) on the streets
Dom (sub) in the sheets
He’ll make you stop and stare (Pullin’ at her hair)
(S)he's a poet everywhere

Deleted My Heart
04:23
|
|||
We met online,
She’s so fine.
She’s so good to me.
So, I opened up Notepad,
And, now, I am so glad
To set my heart free.
I attached my heart to an email and sent it to her.
I clicked “send” and let my computer transfer
All my thoughts, emotions, and binary love,
On a Hotmail.com page thereof,
But she deleted my heart
Straight off hard drive C:\
Zipped folders can’t hide
What this means for me.
Next thing you know, (She)
I’ll be blocked from her AIM, (Deleted my heart)
And then I’ll go back (Straight)
To playing internet games. (Off hard drive C:\)
Online fortune-tellers can’t tell me what to do,
She just didn’t know how our love was true.
I tried to find the recovery files for my heart
So I could see her smiles go off the Excel spreadsheet charts.
But she deleted my heart
Straight off hard drive C:\
Zipped folders can’t hide
What this means for me.
Next thing you know, (She)
I’ll be blocked from her AIM, (Deleted my heart)
And then I’ll go back (Straight)
To playing internet games. (Off hard drive C:\)
[Synth solo]
I recovered my heart
And put it on a floppy disc
This way, my world
Would not seem so amiss,
But, then, she told me what I hoped
All along would be true:
She said she saved a copy
On a floppy disc, too!
She kept my heart,
On hard drive C:\
Zipped folders don’t need to hide
What this means to me.
Next thing you know, (She)
We’ll be one and the same, (Kept my heart)
And our love will be posted (On)
On some internet domain. (Hard drive C:\)
And Microsoft’s blue screen of death (She)
Can’t hurt me now, (Kept my heart)
I finally feel safe enough to
Shut down (On)
All my worries, fears, doubts,
Longings, and dreams…(Hard drive C:\)
Dreams, which have all come true!
(She
Kept my heart
On
Hard drive C:\
She
Kept my heart
On
Hard drive C:\...)

Hitler's Haircut
01:24
|
|||
This song's all about Hitler's haircut
Like what if Hitler spiked his tips up?
What if Hitler had a bowl cut? Or a buzz cut?
Or a fro?
And what if Hitler changed his moustache?
Or what if Hitler had a soul patch?
What if he had giant sideburns,
Handlebars, or a Fu Manchu?
What if Hitler fancied mutton chops? (What if?)
Or maybe even cut his hair off? (Maybe even)
What if his 'stache weren't so small(, like his number of balls)?
What if he didn't shave at all(, if he were shiny and bald)?
[Guitar solo]
What if he needed specs to see things?
What if he weren't good at public speaking?
What if he liked Jews but not the Germans? (l'chaim!)
Maybe I shouldn't ask these questions...
(Nein nein nein)

The bags
They take bodies away in after someone dies,
Remind of me the bags
I always seem to find underneath my eyes
Oh, they remind me incessantly
My lethargy, how I don't sleep
She's the one I killed,
I found her in the dreams
I don't seem to have anymore
(Woo, that's right)
Killing me softly
My bed is vast and hard
I heard her, I hurt her
She crumbled in my arms
“Murder,” she cried, “murder!”
The last she cried at all
The rhythm of the rise and fall
Murder circadia! (Hey!)
Sleep, sleep
Unrequited sleep, sleep
Daydreaming of sweet sleep
It's all I taste on my lips
It's in the back of my mind
It's on the tip of my tongue
And yet it's so hard to find! (Hard to find)
Oh, I'm trying, I try,
Bye bye, my drying, frying, trying mind
Crying for time
Trying its crime
(Ooh, oh, yeah)
Killing me softly
My bed is vast and hard
I heard her, I hurt her
She crumbled in my arms
“Murder,” she cried, “murder!”
My eyes grew deep and red
Sunk to the back of my blackened head
Circadia is dead! (Hey!)
(Sleep no more!)
(Sleep no more, hey!)
Methought I heard a voice cry, “Sleep no more! (Sleep no more!)
A manatee doth murder sleep”—the innocent sleep,
Sleep that knits up the raveled sleave of care, (Sleep no more!)
Blessing us to be aware
The death of each day’s life and strife,
Sore labor’s bath, wrath’s epitaph,
Balm of hurt minds, scourging hurt lines
Great nature’s second course de force (Sleep no more!)
Chief nourisher in life’s feast, at the very, very least
Against this wretched beast
Still it cried, “Sleep no more!” to all (Sleep no more!)
He hath murdered sleep, and therefore he
Shall sleep no more, he shall sleep no more.
A manatee shall sleep no more
And rise and fall, he’s cast to crawl
Till his last, nasty scrawl! (Sleep no more, hey!)
The walking days are all dazed hallucinations
The waking nights are all nothing but nightmares
Killing me softly
All is vast and hard
I heard her, I hurt her
She crumbled in my arms
“Murder,” she cried, “murder!”
The last she cried at all (Hey!)
The rhythm of the rise and fall
The last of my lost ideas
The writing on the closing bedroom walls
Murder circadia!
Shh...

Lost My Mind
01:03
|
|||
[Guitar solo]
I’m so crazy,
I lost my mind last Tuesday,
And I can sincerely say
I’ve been feeling better every day,
‘Cause I’m so crazy,
Living life like it’s a party,
It’s bliss ignoring everything…
And I don’t even need to deal with the weight!
'Cause I’m so crazy,
I’m just another mindless slave,
And I’m amazingly okay
With how my mind is probably decayed,
But to me,
It’s the same either way.

Ooh, ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
Ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
Ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
Ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
But love remains the drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray.
Ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
Ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
There (there) is so much a man can tell you (whoa)
So much he can say.
You became
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me, you're like a growing addiction,
That I can't deny
Won't you tell me is that healthy, babe?
But did you know
That when it snows,
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the gray,
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray,
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
(And if I should fall, will it all go away?)
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray.
(There, there,) there is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me, you're like a growin' addiction that I can't deny, (whoa)
Won't you tell me is that healthy, babe?
But did you know
That when it snows,
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray.
Yes, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray (bop bop ba)
Ba ya ya (bop bop), ya ya, ya (bop bop) ya ya ya, (bop bop ba) ya ya ya
Bop bop, bop bop, bop bop ba
And now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray. (Ooh)

The Forest for the Trees
04:26
|
|||
I'm just a tree
I'm just a tree
Don’t stare at me
There's a whole forestry around me
There's little here that's so unique
There's a whole forest among these trees
Quit staring at me
There are no branches quite like mine
And there are no roots just like mine
But they're all part of our design
There's nothing here that's that hard to find
My neighbors arbol laborers
We are all tables and sawdust,
Artists and martyrs,
Ballers, warriors, and scholars, we all are
One-of-a-kind of a kind
And I find in my brethren
An unforgotten net of us
There's no shortcut for togetherness
For betterness
We’ll weather this together
For worse or for better
Who cares how one grows tall or bright?
Yeah, we are all in this together
There may be few trunks tall as mine
And maybe few leaves quite like mine
But they're all part of our design
We're all grown from the same design
There's not much here that you can't find for yourself
Quit comparing yourselves to my hardwood shelves
There's little here from me that you can impose through your shells
Don't sell yourselves short, we're all important in our own ways
On our own days, we're all in our own maze, looking to reach out to the same rays
Don't fixate on me, when there are far better, far better, ever-better greens to gleam
I'm just a tree
I'm just a tree
Don't stare at me
There are no trees quite like me
We are all of the same forestry
We are all of the same force, you see
We are all set on the same course, you see
We are all for the same force, you see
We are all of one single history
We are all in this together
From my roots to my leaves
I’m just a tree
From my fruits to their seeds
I’m just a tree
I may be cut I may be browned
I’m just a tree
I may be bruised I may lose ground
I'm just a tree
I'm just a tree (All I can be)
Don't stare at me
There are no trees quite like me
We are all of the same forestry
We are all of the same force, you see
We are all set for the same course, you see
We are all of the same force, you see
We are all for one single destiny
We are all in this together
Yeah, we are all in this together

The Pre-Winter Interim
05:13
|

The pre-winter interim
A post-autumn fall
And soon I'll feel nothing,
I'll feel nothing at all
From humming to nothing
And I'll never know
Who will have listened
Or rept what I've sown
And in the spring, it won't be me
Past: nostalgia; future: dreams, unseen, unseeable
I'll never know,
But I'll be free from all
Those bittersweet rises and falls
With all that I am (With all I can be)
Just some flesh, bone and skin
I'll never go on (I've moved on)
Or have time or space free to cave in
When everything crumbles
What's sacred is gone
And with or without me
My life still goes on
How I've grown, I won't go cold
And soon I'll feel nothing at all!
(Nothing at all, nothing at nothing at all)
And soon (soon) I will feel nothing at all!
And I will feel nothing at all! (Nothing at all)
And I'll feel nothing at all!
I won't feel a thing.
And may I walk with dignity
I’ve made my bed, now here’s my sheet
I’ll close my eyes, and drift to sleep
And in the spring
In the spring, it won’t be me

That Thursday
It was love at third sight
You got me thirsty
You made me want a bite
I felt temptation
To be cast under your spell
Give up my freedom
To drink up from your well
But I know myself too well to walk that trail
There’s a world out there
And we’ll both have to go back
Under the pressure
It’ll make us want to crack
Oh, limits, your flawed bits
And so I’ll promise
To you
With a manic grin
I’ll meet you in
Cuba, Aruba,
Canada, Panama,
I don’t give a fuck,
I’ll meet you there
That much is clear
Russia, Australia
Eurasia, Fantasia
I could give a fuck,
I’ll meet you there
That much is clear
Clara (Clara)
Slowly
Step-by-step we’ll walk
Into this journey
Lip-by-lip we’ll lock
Ever-patient
You feel right here by my side
No moment’s wasted
No fear in our smiles’ lights
Ear-to-ear your mind is bright
Shapes and faces in the night
Hearts and goosebumps we’ll excite
Oh, racing, Space-A, whatever way the planes face
Student university, experience diversity
Around the curves, over the sea
Virtues, sins, gin, and tea
I’ll meet you in
Germany, Burgundy
Third-world countries, honey
I don’t give a heck
I’ll make the trek
That much, you can expect
Past Capricorn, Cancer
Your love is my answer
I don’t give a damn
I’ll cross it all
We’ll rise, we’ll fall
Maria (Maria (Maria))
de Oliveira (de Oliveira (de Oliveira))
Minha linda (Minha linda (Minha linda))
Galindo
[Guitar solo]
(Clara (Clara (Clara (Clara))))
So take me to
Wherever, whenever
Inside any weather
I don’t give a fuck
I’ll follow you
Through black and blue
Earth, now and later
Inner, outer space
Hey, I don’t give a damn
Straight past the moon
Just know I’ll see you soon
Bermuda, Bahamas
Come on, pretty mama
I could give a shit
Playing honest games
Through fire and flames
All or any day
I’ll call your name
Minha (Minha (Minha (Minha)))
Maria (Maria (Maria (Maria)))
Clara (Clara (Clara (Clara)))
Galindo (Galindo (Galindo (Galindo)))
de Oliveira (de Oliveira (de Oliveira (de Oliveira)))
(Loo loo loo loo loo loo loo loo loo)

Some of your other friends warn you about me
We both find it kind of funny how
It matters to them
What's not up to them
Not touching them
Outside their first degree
Naomi
The summer's end is nigh
Naomi
Sunshine in your smiling eyes
Naomi, my homie, your presence here is homely
And cozy, we're coasting through these oceans of unknowing
But we’re slowly knowing
You and me
Naomi
I kinda aimed for your cheek
But not really
You could’ve turned away
But you didn’t
You libertine
With your sweet dreams
I have a friendly feeling
As I saw your profile today
With colors flashing by the way
Funny how so much has changed
And I only just learned your name
Naomi
The summer's end is nigh
Naomi
Sunshine in your smiling eyes
Naomi, my homie, your presence here is homely
And cozy, we're coasting through these oceans of unknowing
And you’re tugging at my heartstrings
With your ways of thinking
And being
Naomi
Baeomi
What have we done?
We broke through the barriers
To sort through all the confusion
The more safeties, the less that we'll know
So take my hand and go
There’s no time to take it slow
Oh, let it go, let’s go
Look at us go
Let us rip, rip, rip, rip!
Oh, Naomi
The summer's end is nigh
Naomi
Sunshine in your smiling eyes
Naomi, Baeomi, dear, your presence is so homely here
And cozy too, we're coasting through these oceans of unknowing
And soon you're going
But it's not like you'll be gone
A piece of you will still carry on
As we burn brightly despite the fright
Making us want to hide
They say home is where the heart is
So may the sun never set on mine
Even distance can be divine
Naomi
The summer's end is nigh
Naomi
Sunshine in your smiling eyes
Baeomi, Naomi, your presence is so homely
And cozy, we're coasting through these oceans of unknowing
And I’m glad you could’ve known me and I could’ve known
Naomi

The light is gone; dusk has come;
Earth is between you and the sun.
I see you there, naïve in your ways,
Not sure of how you will spend all your days,
But what’s sure is that you shine brighter than all the sun’s rays.
I can see the light in your soul.
(Won’t do what it’s told, won’t do what it’s told.)
I can see the light in your soul (won’t do what it’s told).
The light is gone; much time has passed;
Your youth is going fast (don’t know how much more time it’ll last).
I see you there, starting to grow, getting to know
What it’s like, this life that we own.
Where is a place to call home?
I can see the light in your soul,
(Aging to be bold, aging to be bold,)
I can see the light in your soul (aging to be bold).
I can see the light in your soul,
(Searching for gold, searching for gold.)
Not sure how far you’ll go (searching for gold).
The light is gone; not much time remains;
Your mind is wise enough to know its aim.
You created a path for others to pave.
Memories of you are all that’s left to save
As you make your way to the grave.
[Piano solo]
I can see the light in your soul.
(It’s grown far too old, it’s grown far too old.)
I can see the light in your soul (it’s grown far too old).
I can see the light in your soul.
(It’s growing too cold, it's growing too cold.)
It cannot keep hold (it's growing too cold).

When all the world's astray
And tough stuff's in your way
This
This is what I say
You can make it through today
And nothing bad will stay
No, it all comes and goes away
Be strong
Live on
Keep calm
Carry on
The pain is natural, and so is the rain
But both can get washed away
If you're going through hell, keep going
If you're going through hell, keep going
If you're going through hell, keep going
If you're going through hell, don't stop moving
Be strong
Live on
Keep calm
Carry on
(Keep on keeping on)
If it feels too much, let the mirror say
Oh I won't feel guilty to be me today
On display
I'll find my way
Or maybe it'll just find me
This may be the way it is
But it’s not the way it has to be
You see? I see
Possibility w-willing me
F-filling me
V-vibrancy, youthful glee
I embrace ambiguity
Uncertainty
Life’s hurt is free as apples growing on an apple tree
Gratuity, so what?
Ain’t nothin’ you can’t handle here
Every one of us can handle fear
So why does it handle us?
It does, but it must not
Corrals us like bulls, like cows, like sheep
It herds us like we’re low
Like we’re mulling, weak, and fast asleep
We’re like buffalo
Mighty, tough, and slow
Well, life living like we’re invalids is terrible
Fear is a constant, but we are all variables
Be strong
Live on
Keep calm
Carry on and on and on and on
The pain is natural, and so is the rain
If it feels too much, let the mirror say
Oh, it can all get washed away
And I won't feel guilty to be me today
On display
I'll find my way through
If you're going through
What you're going through
If you're going through hell, keep going
If you're going through hell, don't stop moving
I know
Sometimes it's so hard to be strong
Your mind just won't let you keep calm
Seems the world doesn't want you to carry on
Heh, oh well, they'll learn to deal with it
So go on
Live strong
Keep calm
Carry on and on
And don't stop moving
