Rebirth 05:08
Waiting for a dream To sing me back to sleep Please be kind to me Breathing expanding Revealing fantasy Rebirth Become what you want Samsara Illusion Caught in my unwillingness To give you my forgiveness I hold every insecurity To your accomplishments How petty Rebirth Become what you want Samsara Illusion Stuck In cycles Desire to be touched Rebirth Patterns unfold on this long drive Blinded by my thinking mind Replace the stars with city lights

Hypnotize Me 04:26
Rain falls onto my head As I drift into your nest The fog consumes the heavens And I can hear you calling The wind pulling my body As I feel what’s above me Outside, beneath, beyond me The calm of morning dawning Your eminence expounding As winter melts around me And streams flowing from snow Form steadily below Hypnotize me in this precious moment The world inside me is speaking when I’m silent Holding onto heaven Inside this desert canyon As birds fly by in tandem Their melodies expanding The cold will be my teacher In silence we fall deeper Revealing our true nature A jewel in every creature Hypnotize me in this precious moment The world inside me is speaking when I’m silent Illuminating the vision of my spirit A world hiding underneath the image Redefining Hypnotize me

Addicted 03:27
Doors open I can see the world is suffering Pictures are crawling through my head Are we content with ignorance Standing near where you made your bed Building it up to not forget While you’re creating, I’ll be sitting And the world all goes to shit Addicted to my phone Addicted to myself I’m addicted to your love Addicted to getting stoned Call my name I’ll respond that it’s all in vein Seeking solace from your pain For all you take, what’s left to gain I am the spirit in your dreams The nothingness held inside a frame Broken, abandoned, rearranged The cause of my own misfortune Addicted to my fridge Addicted to my sins I’m addicted to my thoughts Addicted to Netflix Addicted to time Addicted to my mind I’m addicted to biting my nails Addicted to sex Where do we go when we’re on top of it all Let me just float and watch the world sink below Let it all fade Back into where it came Yours is a piece of me But peace is so fleeting Selling our hearts for gold Your authenticity was sold Though I’d pay a little more I’ll take what I can hold Addicted to my stuff Addicted to my songs I’m addicted to your likes Addicted to pain Addicted to girls Addicted to caffeine I’m addicted to getting drunk Addicted to TV I don’t know where I’m going I hold a piece of you close and watch the sun be reborn Let it all go

Silhouettes 04:21
Breathing your sweet air Birds swimming in the wind In time, all is felt Bury your sword and call it vein To fight for gain In pain, we are one Relive the steady flow You’re in my room then I’m on the road Silhouettes Paint the world below With every single step With every single breath We feel, perceive Fetching the dog in me Your inner grace is felt as balls are chased Being a beast, I roam These barren peaks my feet call home Silhouettes Paint the world below With every single step With every single breath We feel, perceive Sitting on my floor Though words adore, we savor more Laughing, your soul in me That inner peace buried beneath Silhouettes Against my window The sound as the wind pulls The leaves on the tree Outside my bedroom What abundance you store What vast enormity New worlds are formed With every morning Tiny creatures sing out Birds chant in melody The sea resounds And I play my tune
5.
In My Head 03:45
I felt your words pulling on In my mind, the world seeming more Detailed, reborn at the seams Whitewater rushing in my dreams In my dreams I felt the warmth, felt the breeze The world is heaven outside of cities The streams they flow into riverbeds In canyons, I’m lost in my head In my head I know you well, you are me In language we form our identity A teacher once said we are free To be here, all is everything You and me Here in my head In my head
6.
Blooming 06:35
I can’t remember talking Voiceless re-hauntings Are you here with me now Love is all spinning Through I keep sinning I fall asleep and sound Fills in my mind like desert springs where I hide Got a glimpse of me now I’m on your mind My world keeps on rocking The beat on and off and I can feel the city’s pulse My brain it won’t stop and I keep on stomping Put another record on Feel in myself your vibration Feel in myself your vibration Images repeating Feel what you’re feeling Why are we all so down Movement through breathing Contemplate the meaning Can we find some way out Through my eyes everything is so simple All I need are mountains and all your love Captivate me, flowing gently The stream is chanting words of thanksgiving Reliving your calming Silent healing of what’s beyond me The city’s still burning World keeps on turning Can we help ourselves out now If we’re still breathing We’re still perceiving Is there really any doubt Losing ourselves in shallow entertainment While we long for truth and liberation Reawaken, transcendent spirit Through the ceiling, love is blooming Earth is bleeding, minds are fearing Emerge from depths, sacred healing

Laying in the grass in front of me I see you in me Death and beauty Love is empathy We’re inside of everything I know I really don’t know Are we eternal or was it placebo Oh Trading all our love for vanity Our humanity for a plastic screen We are thirsty but our god is dead I know I really want to come home But I think it’s all meaningful Oh Let it die Peace inside When patterns in my mind unwind All is One day, you’re bigger than the rest of us How do I trust you when your goal is authority Losing sanity for a chance to have control I know I could really learn to love my ego But I don’t think I want to be you Oh Let it grow In this present moment We are the same God is everything Let yourself let go We are eternal The Christ and the Buddha Are asking us to love Let it die Peace inside When patterns in my mind unwind All is one
