A PASSAGE TO CLEAR |

STRANGER OF MY FIND
THE PROMISE
UNDERGROUND
CLEAR
LOVE
SHADOWS OF STYLE
GOODBYE THE LIE
STRANGE
POETIC INJUSTICE
HEAVEN
COSMIC COBWEBS AND LOLLIPOPS
ALONE STRANGER OF MY FIND (REPRISE)
STRANGER OF MY FIND
GREETINGS TURNED THE ONLY THING I HAVE THATíS MINE
YOU AND I ARE CLEAR
AND HERE IS WHERE WE STAND ALONE BENEATH OUR TIME
TAKE ME AS I COME
AND LEAVE TO US THIS CAUSE IíM KNOWN TO FEEL I KNOW
BENDING AROUND THE TRUTH
THEN ARCHING FOR A VISION CLEAR TO ME TO SEE
NEVER IN MY DREAMS
DID I REMAIN A PASSENGER OF FATE SO FREE
HOPE IS ALL YOU KNOW
AND LOVE THE ONLY FIELD THATíS LEFT FOR ME TO SOW
WALK WITH ME AWHILE
AND WE WILL SEE THE WILD, ALIVE, SO FREE
TAKE FROM ME MY TIME
THEN GIVE TO ME A HARVEST I WILL KNOW IS MINE
HERE I AM YOU PROMISED ME
AND HERE I GIVE TO YOU IT MUST SEEM FREE
AND THERE YOU STAND IN RICHES AND IN WEALTH
AND HERE I AM WITH LITTLE MORE THAN MY HELL
A FACTORY OF LOVE COULD NEVER BE
THIS ART I FEEL I GIVE TO THEE
SO BLEAK YOU SAY RETURNED TO ME
YOU HEAR A SONG OF GREED AND MISERY
I AM SKILLESS IN THE WORLD AN ARTIST KNOWS
SEE THE MAGIC FROM WITHIN SO PURE I KNOW
COST EFFECTIVE MAKE A BUCK I GRIND AWAY
SO THIS WORLD IíVE COME TO KNOW
AND HERE I STAY
PULLING SIDEWAYS STANDING TALL AND FEELING DOWN
FALLEN CULTURE POP DISEASE IíM UNDERGROUND
a. PERCEIVE, TRANSFORM, RELEASE
LIGHT AND TEXTURE
A FLOATING MYTH OF COMPLEXITY
SERENE, THEN NATURALLY EXPOSED
SO OPEN TO PERCEPTION AND FRESH INTERPRETATION
CALMLY REPRESSED, NEWLY OPENED, AND FOREVER DELICATE
SPLENDOR HAS ARRIVED AND THE SEASON AWAKES
TO THIS SUBTLE CHANGE
AS REFRESHING AS THE ONE BEFORE
AND AS NEW AS THE ONE TO COME
TO EMPTY THE RIVER
IS TO RELEASE THE CANYONS UNDERLAYING FORM
SO ABRUPTLY TRANSFORMED
AND SPIRITUALLY REJUVENATED
WE HIKE UPSTREAM TO THE SOURCE
SO HIDDEN, THEN SOON WILL FLOW AGAIN BACK TO ME
THEN I SHALL RECEIVE HER
YES, I THINK SO
b. A PASSAGE TO CLEAR (INSTRUMENTAL)
IíM CLEAR IíM CALM IíVE GOT TO KEEP AN UNDERSTANDING
KNOWING WHERE IíM GOING DISTANCED FROM THE PAST IíVE COME
SOMEWHERE IN MY MIND IíM TRYING TO FOLLOW SOUNDS AND SIGHTS
AND VISIONS THAT KEEP TUMBLING ENDLESSLY FROM...... MY MIND
NOWHERE DOES IT TELL ME WHAT IíM FREE TO THINK OR REASON
WITH THE ABSTRACT IMAGERY THAT FLOWS SO FREELY
I FEEL I KEEP ON FALLING FARTHER FROM THE HUB THAT SPINS
AWAY FROM ME MORE QUICKLY THAN THE CORE I LOVE
ALL I MAKE IS GIVEN ALL THATíS GIVENíS TAKEN FROM THE MAKER
TO THE MASTER WILL YOU EVER FREE ME
LOVE I KNOW INSIDE I FEEL TOGETHER BRINGING FORM AND TEXTURE,
POWER, PASSION GRACE MY HANDS WITH EASE
IN THIS WORLD OF WEBS I WEAVE AND WONDER TAKE IT TO THE
EDGE CREATING MAGIC SLOW AND NEW TO ME
THEREíS SORROW AND SCREAMING AND RAGE
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
THEREíS HATRED AND RACISTS AND BLAME
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
THERE HORROR AND GRIEVING AND PAIN
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
THEREíS HUNGER AND HOMELESS AND SHAME
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
THEREíS TOXINS AND POISONS TO BLAME
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
THEREíS NUCLEAR WASTE ON A TRAIN
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
]THEREíS INNOCENCE LIVING IN CAGES
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
THERE'S SOMEBODY OUT THERE TO BLAME
AND LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
TODAY BECAME A MONUMENT OF LIFE FOREVER
WISHING TO BE CLEAR
A SUBJECT OF THE SMALLER WORLDS SO CLEVERLY
DISGUISED AMIDST THE DAY
WITH ALL OUR LIFE SO FREE AHEAD
WE WONDER WITH OUR HEARTS AND OPEN MINDS
A PAINTERS PALLET PASSES TIME LIKE NEVER ENDING WHEELS
OF DARK AND LIGHT
I LISTENED TO THE WIND TONIGHT
IíM SURE I HEARD A VOICE ACROSS THE FIELD
SO CRISP THE AIR THAT GREETS MY SKIN
TO OVERCAST THE SHADOWS OF MY STYLE
THEN ALL THE DAYS THEY PASS ME BY
WITH NONCHALANCE A BITTER SWEET REFRAIN
THEREíS SOMETHING DASHING ACROSS THE SKY
I THINK ITíS CALLING OUT TO YOU AND I
IF YOU TELL ME A LIE
A TRUTH THAT I MUST KNOW
OR IS THERE ANY HOPE
TO FREE THE DEEPEST PAIN
FOR YOU AND I TO GROW
IF YOU KNOW WHAT I NEED
DONíT LOOK AT WHAT I HAVE
I HAVENíT GOT A LOT
THEREíS SOMETHING YOU DONíT SEE
THAT LIES INSIDE OF ME
I WASNíT ASKING MUCH
I DIDNíT HAVE A DIME
WILL YOU TELL ME THE TRUTH
FOR NOW THAT I MUST GO
SO WEíRE NOT WASTING TIME
OF ALL THE HOPES IíVE HAD
AND ALL THE DREAMS IíVE LOST
MY FEARS I CHOOSE TO HIDE
WILL YOU STAY HERE WITH ME
MY LOVE THE ONLY COST
I WONDER WHERE YOU ARE
I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
THEREíS NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE
YOU KISS MY LOVE GOODBYE
I........I NEVER THOUGHT IíD HAVE TO GO THIS FAR
I........I NEVER THOUGHT I HAD TO TRY SO HARD
STRANGE.......STRANGE IS MY WAY
STRANGE.......STRANGE IS MY WAY
IT WAS CERTAINLY MORE THAN ANY NORMAL PERSON COULD TAKE....
I HAD CHANGED TO A POINT TO WHERE I WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO RECOGNIZE
THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MYSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE
I........I NEVER THOUGHT IíD HAVE TO LIVE SO HARD
I........I NEVER THOUGHT IíD GET SO HARD
STRANGE......STRANGE IS MY WAY
STRANGE......STRANGE IS MY WAY
I NEVER DREAMED IíD GET SO FAR
I NEVER EVER THOUGHT IíD GET SO TIRED
STRANGE.........STRANGE IS MY WAY
STRANGE.........STRANGE IS MY WAY
STRANGE!
AND THIS IT HAS BECOME
MY POETIC INJUSTICE
THIS BEING
FRIGHTENING AS IT SEEMS
THEN LOST WITHOUT DIRECTION
MY VERY EXISTENCE IN QUESTION
EXPANSIVE THOUGHTS TRANSFORMING
SLOWLY, QUICKLY, RACING, FASTER
NOW EVERYTHING SEEMS SHALLOW, TAINTED, HOPELESS
IíM HUNGRY, ANGRY, TOO LONELY, SO DISTANT.........
SUBMITTING INSTRUCTIONS OF CHANGE, REFORM
AND NOW ACTION!
SUN AND MOON AND ALL MY LIFE
GO TO REACH AND STAY
HOPE FOR LOVE.....AND TIMING TONIGHT
KEEP THIS SONG ALIVE
ALL I KNOW ......IN THE WINDS OF MY DREAMS
COME THE FALL I KNOW
BREATHE IN DEEP AND SLOWLY TO FIND
SHELTERED HEART TONIGHT
ALL I LOVE TO GO BEYOND THE DAY
KEEP ME SOFT TONIGHT
HERE I CRY AND OPEN MY SHYNESS
IN A PLACE UNFEARED
CALM MY FEAR, SO I CRY MY HEART FOR MORE
BRING ME HOME TONIGHT
TAKE ME TO THE LIGHT
MAKE ME FEEL ALRIGHT
SEEING
SIGHT
INTUITION
SIGHT
INSTINCT
TOUCH
TOUCH
I'M RIGHT HERE
I CAN SEE THE WAY
AND I CAN FEEL THE PAIN
AND I CAN STAY AWAY
AND I CAN REST TODAY
IíM ON MY OWN
IíM ON MY OWN
NEVER ALONE
CRISS CROSS ALONG MY PATHWAY
GONNA LIVE MY LIFE FROM DAY TO DAY
IíM GONNA HURRY ALONG
IíM GONNA WHISTLE MY SONG
UNTIL THE MORNING GREETS ANOTHER DAY
TIME OWES ME NOTHING
CAUSE I GIVE IT EVERY MOMENT SOFT HURRAHS
AND WHEN THE FEELING IS GONE
AND IíLL BE MOVING ALONG
AND THEREíLL BE NOTHING MORE FOR ME TO SAY
STRANGER OF MY FIND
MEETINGS TURNED THE ONLY THING I HAVE THATíS MINE
TAKE ME AS I COME
LEAVE TO US THIS CAUSE IíM KNOWN TO FEEL
I KNOW
BENDING AROUND THE TRUTH
AND ARCHING FOR A VISION CLEAR TO ME TO SEE
NEVER IN MY DREAMS
DID I REMAIN A PASSENGER OF FATE SO FREE
HOPE IS ALL YOU KNOW
AND LOVE THE ONLY FIELD THATíS LEFT FOR ME TO SOW
YOU AND I ARE CLEAR
AND HERE IS WHERE WE STAND ALONE
BENEATH OUR TIME
WALK WITH ME A WHILE............
