Woke up in the strangest place With strangers in your face With memories of a conversation That was taking place All of those minds With all their math to stay behind The lanterns of the sages Flicker on the mountain side What makes you think There’s time to waste No more left for the chase We just keep moving Steady on down the line There’s no more gold in the hills Just the housewives and the bills I guess there’s something there We can’t understand I woke up in a cold sweat In the middle of July Spirits seemed to linger round The corners of my eyes All this fascination With the man in the disguise Has become as American As drugs and apple pie What makes you think There’s time to wait No more left for the chase We just keep moving Steady on down the line There’s no more blood beneath the sand Instead we wipe it from our hands There’s gotta be somethings left That we can’t understand There you go Across the ocean So far away Like a bird with the seasons I should know This is goodbye Rain and snow And bittersweet tears That you cry

I ain’t goin’ back to Iraq I made up my mind I’m on the right track I’m staying right here In the country I love I’m tired of laying Face down in the mud I ain’t goin’ back to Iraq So tell Uncle Sam I ripped up his contract They’re lining their pockets We line up in graves I’d rather stay home And make minimum wage I ain’t goin’ back to Bagdad Dreams of glory Is all that we had I used to be angry I’d shoot to kill But dreams became nightmares And gave me the chills I ain’t goin’ back to Fallujah I left that place And cried hallelujah We raided the palace In search of the loot And all that I got Was some sand in my boots I ain’t goin’ back to Iraq I’m falling to pieces There’s no turning back I can’t force another To see things my way So in California Is where I shall stay

Golden Child 03:27
I waited for you to come around Cause I am not the same As I was before You’ve got some friends you hang around But they don’t see you like I do Glass slippers too Just keep inside of the sun Your shadow can’t out run the day It tries anyway And ends up knocking at your door Just waiting for more to come From the evening sun I’ll always see you As the Golden Child And in my dreams Your spirit’s always running wild You’ve got those perfect eyes And that almost perfect smile I wish you’d stay here for awhile I know that time is just a number on a line But it still passes by Every day and night I’d rather you be here in my arms So I can charm those blues away And we could melt each other down tonight I got something you might need And you are everything I want to be So just take a look inside yourself You’ll see me resting on a shelf Where you hide me from the light inside of you

When I was a child I received love An only child With open room to grow Beauty in the journey Given freely When my mystery Began to surface Painful at first Some say everything that grows Is a mystery So many different mushrooms in nature Beauty in the journey Learning to discover Well at first the children are loved The soil is fertile Put spores on the mushrooms to grow At one point did fly away Begin to feel the struggle The fight against self begins Outside an impression to win Beauty in the journey Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah To watch you unfold Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah To watch you on a roll Proceed without worry or hope Sensation can carve the path Mystery inside us still A miracle when we keep our will Beauty in the journey Synchronicity witnessed I’ve seen so much I just want a dog So much left to live Vitality grips The fight against sensation begins Beauty in the journey Beauty in the journey I hope to see family Before and after me Beauty in the journey I hope to see family Beauty in the journey Before and after me Beauty in the journey Live to become an ancestor Beauty in the journey Through me

I came unglued I’d been chasing tigers With the blues Inside the city zoo I figured it was something They could do It was exciting and new I freed the zebra And the kangaroo There were orangutan too They tried to warn me But I was way too high I stared at the sun I started to cry The tears and the light They blinded both my eyes I’ve been here before I’ll be here again When all becomes one And then divides once again And ain’t it just like the fool Who keeps his head down And walks alone He’s got nothing better to do But whistle a tune And kick some stones Everything’s wonderful now I was on edge But now it is clear Things are getting faster Year by year
