Song From Big Riddle

Good morning
It comes without warning
Another dream that we all wake up to
It's too real for our heads to make up
We are all forming
As the moments are swarming
Into our heads
Where they all make their beds
As something to be read
As song
Good evening
The day is now leaving
And we're suiting up
To have some more dreams
That our heads will now get to make up
They're not original
They come from Big Riddle
Yeah the only point of reference we have
To scratch our heads at
To make up our songs

(Dedicated to every love-driven smile. And there may never come a day of peace on the Earth amongst us self-proclaimed "human-beings" but I went ahead and wrote this song in case such an event should someday miraculously happen. And even if no such event ever happens, I went ahead and wrote this song anyways despite the fact peace never came so that we still get to have a peace victory song.)
The Rain is now gone
The Blue Sky's a poem
The Sun's medicine
It will let us in

I'm gone
Yes I'm leavin'
And I hope you do not mind
Cuz I got a reason
To make a shelter of my mind
Yeah I'm gone
Yeah I'm leavin'
So I am always at home
Yeah I'm gone
Yeah I'm leavin'
Cuz this mind is to be roamed
I'm gone
Yes I'm leavin'
And I hope you'll come with me
Cuz I do believe in
All the things that we could see
Yeah I'm gone
Yeah I'm leavin'
Cuz I know this is my home
Yeah I'm gone
Yeah I'm leavin'
Cuz this Earth is to be roamed

This Song Casts A Spell
03:33
|
|||
|
This song's just one thing I could do
To demonstrate before you
The power of the Universe
Embodied in what we call Earth
It's heard now in this melody
A new special delivery
Now this song it does cast a spell
I'm sorry to say but oh well
Don't worry you will still survive
Cuz it just makes you feel more alive
But only if you listen good
Like you already know that you should

Train Ride Home
03:16
|

|
I'm on the train ride home
I don't know just how long I've been gone
It's been so long
Learned some things, I don't know
Just how much but it feels like enough
So please take me home
I made sure to have fun
Took a few notes from everyone
But they didn't know
I'm on the train ride home
Got some notes to give to everyone
Who can't find their own

It comes closer to us
It feels further from us
All the time

Sampson Ghost
04:36
|
|||
|
Well Sampson Ghost he made his way
Past the fire they burn for his head
Not alone
But with freedom as a close friend
He knew this night could well approach
Since he was still in demand
And well known
But he don't believe in ends
Cuz he knows
That he can't believe it ends
Now Sampson Ghost is a good person
But there's one thing that he sure did
He shot the collector of his debt
And killin' a man ain't something that
Sampson Ghost could ever forget
But for his freedom...
Well, his appetite was whet
When you take freedom...
Well sometimes that's what you get
Now the people who chase Sampson Ghost
Like to believe it can end
But they don't know
Who? Who is the bigger threat?
Since Sampson Ghost is a free man
And they're the ones still in debt
And Sampson has the one thing
They'd like to get
But when you chase a free man...
Well sometimes that ain't what you get

Here Is Yr Chance
05:02
|
|||
|
Well hello everyone
I thought you might like a friend
Since you're living in this world
A big, crazy world
It's powered by the Sun
Just like you are
Until you're gone
But you will still go down with it
When it's done
But it's not done
Oh
I like to have some fun
I thought you might like a hand
Since you're living in this world
A big crazy world
You can do a dance
You can sing a song
Here is yr chance:
"Don't listen to anyone who says that you can't have some fun".

To Build A Home
06:48
|
|||
|
I was told when I was young not to point
As I've grown I have realized
That is a very good point
When I walk outside to come and meet the day
I'll look at faces who will look back at me
And that is our cue to smile and wave
And we build a home in that moment
Cuz we welcome the moment
As it's landing
And we ask, "How do you do?"
Cuz we know that we all need a home
Let's build a home
I was told when I was young to be polite
As I've grown old I have realized
Well, that they might be right
Can I build a home out of every moment?
Or welcome every moment as it's landing?
And why ask, "Well, what should I do"?
When I know that I should build a home
A welcome home
