This is a song about power.
The kind we would much like to author.
Pushing our type to the limit,
with all that's left on the palette.
Sail denied!
Failed to find,
the fundamentals.
Grail denied!
Failed to grind!
Fundamental!
Sail denied!
Failed to find,
the fundamentals.
Grail denied!
Failed to grind!
Fundamental!
This was a song about power.
The kind that we hoped we would conquer.
Cracking the sky with our silence.
With all that's left of our absence.
Sail denied!
Failed to find,
the fundamentals.
Grail denied!
Failed to grind!
Fundamental!
Sail denied!
Failed to find,
the fundamentals.
Grail denied!
Failed to grind!
Fundamental!

You Liked John Wayne

Flowers.
Everywhere are flowers.
Burning.
Burning to rest away the sadness,
of moments like this.
Shameful.
Shameful how I laughed at him,
with my childish heart,
all wrapped in gold,
and clothed in all my Sunday mold.
I laughed at him.
I laughed at him...
You liked John Wayne,
and I got to say,
"I liked him too!
He seemed pretty cool!"
You were so broken,
I never got to say,
that I liked you too,
though our days were so few.
That's all.
That's all I remember now,
of the days of our quiet stays.
Cowboys, and cowboy things.
With a bird,
and an old ashtray.
Bits of dust,
and kindness,
and all good things.
I guess that's what I recall...
And I laugh...
I laughed at him.
You liked John Wayne,
and I got to say,
"I liked him too!
He seemed pretty cool!"
You were so broken,
I never got to say,
that I liked you too,
though our days were so few.

Forest Thoughts

Echoes,
from the forest.
"Murder",
said the forest.
Wake up,
something's coming.
It wears fangs,
and a chromatic composition.
Venom flows,
from the other side!
It needs devotion,
oh but it loves a fight...
Fables rise,
on a strange aside!
It lacks conviction,
oh but it loves the fight...
Echoes,
from the forest.
"Murder",
said the forest.
It's gotta rotate,
notate,
no stay.
Gotta make the move to pass...
Funny it should talk,
when it walks like it talks,
looking for the guide to nowhere.
Venom flows,
from the other side!
It needs devotion,
oh but it loves a fight...
Fables rise,
on a strange aside!
It lacks conviction,
oh but it loves the fight...

For You

Make me whole.
Set me right,
like them.
Just for you,
just once,
for you.
Turn me 'round.
Size me up,
a thrill.
Failed to see,
the weight,
I bear.
Shades of my affections,
can't hide the fact that I'm calmly,
facing a black bit of moment,
that's wasted on all that you see.
Dancing to something I don't like,
I bounce along like it's alright.
Shaking hands, making faces.
I feel so heavy, but oh so empty...
Down a hole.
Set me free.
I'll fly,
home again,
back home,
for you...for you.
Shades of my affections,
can't hide the fact that I'm calmly,
facing a black bit of moment,
that's wasted on all that you see.
Dancing to something I don't like,
I bounce along like it's alright.
Shaking hands, making faces.
I feel so heavy, but oh so empty...
