I want the power of a thousand witches
I want the world to change
I want violence to end
I want to rise in love
I want to talk to a certain rose
I want to find my soft centre
I want to see the prime colour of my heart
I want to feel the fourth dimension of this instant
I want to taste the salt of the ocean
I want to be connected to the earth
I want to add myself to the leaves
I want to sway in the high branches
I want to understand animal language
I want to wake up pale from nights of wild dreaming
I want to dig deep
I want the vision
I want the pleasure of thought
I want to go beyond thought
I want to ride on the astral plane
I want a good game
I want to remember your voice

Waves of Luciferin
On Our last night out
Everyone glowing
Pacific Ocean at midnight
I can still remember your name
But I can‘t quite remember the sound
Of your voice when you loved me
Agitated Sagittarius
Your Aries arises and wonders
Where are you now?
Chewing on ice cubes at the cocktail party?
You used to say
Fire is older than water
Fire walks with me
And I miss the sound
Of your voice when you loved me
I peel a tangerine
Pondering
How is your life?
Pictures of your kids at the office?
Gamblers are still playing
It’s all about the last card
Gamblers are still dreaming
What about your voice when you loved me?
Don’t worry baby
I won’t come and haunt you
I’ll be a reed sighing
I’ll be the wind
That blows away your troubles
Transient, ancient, a grain of sand
In your hand
Soft and golden
Just like your voice
When you loved me

Ghosted ghoster of the Holy Ghost
Kind of cool, kind of cold, kind sometimes
Child of the sun the sky turns you on
Do you pray to the stars that they change your cards?
Do you think of me sometimes?
My oh my, I’m so over you now
Good days when I heard your voice
American College Football season
A season of love
Feel the tremendous lack
But baby don’t look back
You can’t put your arms around me
For I am just a memory
My oh my, I’m so over you now
Modern rituals, sacred fractals
Pollen on the pool, getting high
Tell me you love me even if it’s a lie
And have a drink on me honey
My oh my, I’m so over you now
Maybe I was just another fool
In your set of rules
Pawn in your game
Way of the chessmen
You go down in my DMs
Until I see you again
My oh my, I’m so over you now
Pink and blue emotions,
Going through the motions
Of this astral path
Of yours and mine
Call me sometime

Hey lover tell me why
I'm still waiting to hear back
Is there another girl, another guy
Why you not calling me
Calling me now
Hey lover tell me why
I'm still waiting to hear back
Don't be cruel to be cruel
I thought you had soul
Was I too much
Or not enough?
I m losing my cool
I looked at my Dms
My email, my spam
Also asked the postman
You're nowhere to be found
I looked at my DMs
I thought we had a thing
Also asked the postman
You're nowhere to be found
Is there another girl, another guy
Why you not calling me?
You ghosting me now
Oh I won't lie
I liked you alright
We had just one night
And I am ghosting you now

I remember a time
A long long time ago
A time we were in love
And we went to Bilbao
Walking down the museum
Was it so long ago
That we were together
You and me in Bilbao
Bilbao, now there’s another
Another love
And you go
To Bilbao
Now it’s another
Another life
There you go
Looking for someone you could trust
Can’t settle in the rust
You gotta love life
Bilbao

La Luna

Porque no quieres ver
Que este mundo está tan lindo
Por la noche
La luna contempla el mar
La tierra, los ninos
Todas las maravillas
Y se desespera
Llora la luna llora
Esta destrucción continúa

Tears in the Sea
05:19

The sea around us
Is a mystery
Have you ever wondered
About the deep blue sea
Can you hear the orcas
Complex harmonies
Have you ever wondered
About the chant of the sea
Unresolved resonant whistles
Gracious song of the wild
Are we going to listen
To the ocean’s roar
Will it reach the shore
Tears in the sea
Sailors let the whales go free
Stop searching for silver and gold
Crystal clear sea water has it all
Precious corals
Let them be
Voice of a porpoise
Heart of a dolphin
Soul of an Octopus
The end and the beginning
Intricate relations of all living things
Forever flowing
Vast endless dream
Tune into the tidal
Rhythm of the sea
Contours of the abyss
Magnificent bliss
Imagine the world
As it could be

Girl
Word rolls
On the tongue
Stick it out
A growl
A purr
Enjoy being
A girl
With true grit
With true love
With power
You like intelligent women

Half a Metaphor

You left me here with half a metaphor
I rolled with the punches, asked for an encore
Cruelest month, tenderest feelings
Under the super moon staring at your dreams
Empty pillars, Apollonian scene
Will you ever put me on a pedestal?
Forever yours
Tu étais ma muse
Et j’étais ton féal
