Whale Wounds

I
cant force the world to be, what you want it to be
can only open your eyes and see, truth staring back at me
INNER EYES, OUTER EYES
MIND HEART OF THE HEART MIND
TAKES A MILLION YEARS
TO FIGHT THESE FEARS

II
you feel so lost and alone, as you reclaim your Golden Light Throne
some kind of cosmic vagabond, wandering the world naked and free
THE GREAT SAINTS SPEAK OF LOVE
AS THE GUIDING PRINCIPLE
SEPARATES THE MEN FROM THE BOYS
SAINTS FROM SINNERS, LOSERS FROM WINNERS
SIGNAL FROM THE NOISE

All i got is some parlor tricks, tho sometimes its hit and miss
learned ‘em early but learned ‘em well, kept my place in this carnival hell
UNTIL I WAS TAKEN IN, AND SHOWN A NEW WAY
A NEW WAY TO LIVE, A NEW SEA TO SWIM IN

IV
Fell down on my knees, oh Lord help me please
Looked up at the sky, rains fell down hard so i cried
Last night of the earth poems
First light leadeth me home
Big dog with the big bone blues
Oh mama tell me those sweet lies
but not too soon

V
Now i sing to you my songs, wasnt sure i’d even make it this far
If you saw me at my worst, you might think that bastard’s cursed
Give you all i can, just looking for a friend
To listen to my soul, its why i write these songpoems, my source codes
NOTHING MUCH LEFT HERE TO SEE, GOT NO MORE TRICKS UP MY SLEEVE
JUST GOT THIS POETRY, NOT SURE IT MEANS ANYTHING
YOU FIND A LOVE SO TRUE
MAKES THE SUN SHINE
TO SOOTHE THOSE WHALE WOUNDS
