Gazing upon this burnt horizon
I know there's only one direction
Through the fire, wind and rain
Snaking motions navigate the plane
When I
Left you
Time just
Stood still
I don't care about rewards
I'll study all my life at Oxford
Learn the way to wield this knife
Cut out my heart to renew my life
Now we come to round two
Take my silence as a cue
Inside thoughts riddled by a Sphinx
If I falter she'll take my hints
I know I promised to come back
After weighing options, I'm making tracks
Every minute with you, I used tropes
To understand your choices wrapped in ropes
Now I've
Left you
Time runs
Backwards
I don't care about rewards
I'll study all my life at Oxford
Learn the way to wield this knife
Cut out my heart to renew my life
I don't care about rewards
I'll study all my life at Oxford
Learn the way to wield this knife
Cut out my heart to renew my life
I have to admit this is a lesson
About how I handle emotional repression
Scanning the area to find the old me
Reunited here under a hemlock tree
I execute a moon-like motion
Facing an idol which is halcyon
And sometimes I think it's all over
But the ghosts inside drown my hunger
I don't care about rewards
I'll study all my life at Oxford
Learn the way to wield this knife
Cut out my heart to renew my life
I don't care about rewards
I'll study all my life at Oxford
Learn the way to wield this knife
Cut out my heart to renew my life

Alice is waiting
Waiting for a chance to bear her soul
Do you dare fall
Down the rabbit hole
Alice is waiting
For you to do what you have said
The Queen of Hearts
Is ready to take your head
Alice is waiting
Pacing around her dingy flat
Staring at your photo
Beaming like the Cheshire Cat
Alice is waiting
Ordering some food making her fatter
Maybe she's crazy
Maybe she's like the Mad Hatter
Alice is waiting
Waiting for a chance to bear her soul
Do you dare fall
Down the rabbit hole
Alice is waiting
For you to do what you have said
The Queen of Hearts
Is ready to take your head
Alice is waiting
Pacing around her dingy flat
Staring at your photo
Beaming like the Cheshire Cat
Alice is waiting
Ordering some food making her fatter
Maybe she's crazy
Maybe she's like the Mad Hatter
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Waiting for a chance to bear her soul
Do you dare fall
Down the rabbit hole
Alice is waiting
For you to do what you have said
The Queen of Hearts
Is ready to take your head
Alice is waiting
Pacing around her dingy flat
Staring at your photo
Beaming like the Cheshire Cat
Alice is waiting
Ordering some food making her fatter
Maybe she's crazy
Maybe she's like the Mad Hatter
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting
Alice is waiting

Solstice song

The hot sun hits my face
And leaves blow without a trace
Something about this summer's day
Allows me to rest and un-fray
I owe this song
To the tilted globe
Recharging souls
And bringing home
Basking in
The sun or moon
Making plans
And laughing soon
Light magnifies the lunar dew
And stars show the tales new
I never want this night to end
December means our love transcends
I owe this song
To the tilted globe
Recharging souls
And bringing home
Basking in
The sun or moon
Making plans
And laughing soon
I owe this song
To the tilted globe
Recharging souls
And bringing home
Basking in
The sun or moon
Making plans
And laughing soon
The night changes everything
This heat and chill can stun
Even though we feel the sting
The cycle has already begun
The night changes everything
This heat and chill can stun
Even though we feel the sting
The cycle has already begun
I owe this song
To the tilted globe
Recharging souls
And bringing home
Basking in
The sun or moon
Making plans
And laughing soon
I owe this song
To the tilted globe
Recharging souls
And bringing home
Basking in
The sun or moon
Making plans
And laughing soon

To understand your choices wrapped in ropes
I waited and waited and waited
I waited too long
