Salice the blue sat under a tree Hear not a word, he had lemons for eyes Nothing made sense He had worms where his feet grew And a sun in the sky with a god behind its face "Salice, we are you Silently watching, but we are not dead Everything goes on" And before you know Your mind is gone If I'm a stranger to you Know that, baby, I'm afraid too And if they come over the hills of Milan If they watch, even if I don't say who Only I, I can see what is real life

…When Bobby Familiar went strolling slow by In beauty, was bound by a body of beast Born in blue eyes And feet of the Sparrow All he could hear was a whisper But he could see just fine Though his brain, from another view, was gone And they say, “You are not the living kind” But as he stares, he has made a world to believe in Slowly move the wheels With the man who moves behind But I can tell that you, You are not the living kind You see there is no other That I am high enough, to wake, beyond the moon I hear more than a whisper Don’t you see, we’re born a dream

Lady you see, But never heard before A lilac, And I'm a blade of grass on the knoll A sweet breeze deferred But when you call Tides run closer to the sky Lady in purple Sang to me in circling word Lady in purple Blissfully bound by epiphany Symphony sent by felicity Draped in a gown by the riverbed And I am blue, holding the sun ------------- But then she was gone And no felicity lingered Cause all that he sees Is all that there was
4.
Straight lines and silhouettes Boring through the atmosphere Cold breath, An iron bird grown wings of the paralyzed And eyes closed, there is no room for you Warm call, A silence ringing through the air of Constance Maiden flight- And out of place, We'll lose the weight of the war And of the mind "Part of an ancient future of kings And I am only Solomon, Meditating through the astronomy" Slowly we burn down In bright red skies of the eclipse (And into the dark) And through the balance you found interspace (The worldly under) Slowly moving sideways (Are we alive) In time we rendezvous Silent eyes know who's impaired And as you dream One breath with alter (Time runs a still plane) In crown, you find internal peace I can hear the world And here I am high In pure body's soul And through the fire you'll walk like me Through the lucid sky And now we free fall anew Baby, I have been to Babylon And walked through Solomon's temple

Only Human 01:22
Follow me into a garden Where the laughter grows On the outside Only human To watch over earth from theatre vision Everything's blue on the outside Until we go on like before
6.
Tears burst, the dirt reveals A circle, ocular, bright diamond; White space climbing, Climbing somewhere new Well, some here knew And some there grew up to clearer views- Reflect on mirrors blue Brighter smile; I see you there Turn your mind to the breeze It's a beautiful world I see the old sundial, Where the shadow hangs over where the light had crossed A new worldly hour brought over in waves He said, "They call me the century's eye, And blood runs through my field In any shape I can dream" Time will echo on in the ones you gave life And so will the light at the edge of the field A free-float ground, we're always in afterlife With silence beyond where is here
7.
And in no time, As we lie under circling billows bright, Does anyone know me? And though I've been here all my life I am certain that I've lied A wisp beyond my years But something changed, And you turned to me, But it was not you You see, we're just a face for the feeling- "And over the hills I run I wish you all the best" "But Salice, you're just a tree, You can't move" And Bobby was a memory in vacant light As Salice dreams of the old times And every reincarnatee
8.
Tale of a life I'm afraid I have lost my own, Time and again But somebody new turns And darkness in my dream comes alive But if you lay Half on the moon, child, And half on the world You'll know the feeling in time Of basking blue eyes Recede out of light It's alright you came I am restless, And I know you came a long way Cold eventide, Can you carry through the night? And though it all worked out, I have only my life to blame But I don't even care When my minds at peace And you know it's been a long day A soothing life in the sun And you know it wont be the same And if you close your eyes, I can feel it come back again
