The Path 03:16
Two paths lay there in the road And one's the path that was advised Of the other path not much was told I took the path less traveled by Come and play a game with me A game of my creation A technicolor symphony Through warped imagination It's starting any second now So hold your tickets high The price we ask to sit you down Is what's left of your mind Two paths lay there in the road And one's the path that was advised Of the other path not much was told I took the path less traveled by Come into a world with me Behind the velvet curtain A world of intense imagary Where nothing seen is certain It's starting any second now So hold your tickets high The price we ask to sit you down Is what's left of your mind Two paths lay there in the road And one's the path that was advised Of the other path not much was told I took the path less traveled by

I've been too old to live but too young to die Too big to run and too big to cry With too much to hold but too much to drop Too slow to go but too quick to stop Where'd you think your money goes? I've too much to keep, not enough to sell Too small a heap to crawl in a dwell With too many hours but too little time Too much of yours is too much of mine Where'd you think your money goes? Too many places too far to go Too much to think not enough to know Too many faces with too much to say Too many spaces in too many days Where'd you think your money goes? Too many farmers with too good a crop Not enough to smoke but too much to stop Too much on haircuts too hard to style Too much to spend on all of the while Where'd you think your money goes?

Picture what I see inside your photograph It's a thing that no one else has claimed to see I see it in every one of your photographs It reaffirmed my faith in destiny And even over time there's a message in your mind That's peering out to see to clearer skies But it's trapped behind your face inside this photograph Deeply submerged within your eyes We have our conversations in this murmuring I imagine that your words are kind You're plastic preconceptions may be furthering You're words may be a burden you've designed But deep behind your lies there's a message in your cries That's peering out to see the clearer skies It's trapped behind your voice inside this murmuring Though I can see within your eyes

Shifa 03:44
Here she comes she's hidden her hair Here she comes in silk that she wears She stands and i want her Here she stands, shifa Here she comes all of five foot three Here she comes, she's walking to me Here she stands and I want her Here she stands, Shifa Meeting her is destiny, being with her is my fate I only hope to tell her so before it gets too late I've seen the way she looks at me, I know this must be real The only thing I need to know is the way she makes me feel Here she comes with piercing eyes Here she comes, she's telling no lies Here she stands and i want her Here she stands, Shifa Here she comes she's more than she seems Here she comes, she's fit to be queen Here she stands and i want her Here she stands, shifa Meeting her is destiny, being with her is my fate I only hope to tell her so before it gets too late I've seen the way she looks at me, I know this must be real The only thing I need to know is the way she makes me feel

Leaning slightly to the left you hang your family crest You fill your mind with sugared lies your family knows the best I hear the words you say and it sounds to me that someone's lost their way I wake up in the morning too many hours too late The night already dawning and darkening my fate In the demise of day it sounds to me that someone's lost their way Feel free to share your wisdom in badly chosen words I doubt that I will listen and I'll scorn each word in turn Inside I may be grey and it sounds to me that someone's lost their way I scratch until I'm bleeding at what will soon be scars This life I say I'm leading has lead me out too far It's leading me away, and it sounds to me that someone's lost their way

Patterns 11:02
As I lay with my head on my pillow I look up to the ceiling and stare out into the void My mind created and then self inflated Liberating the night Lit by the lights of the full moon and the neon in my eyes But the moon shines differently In the patterns of my mind As I lay with my arms softly flowing Into the eyes of indifference slowly rising From peripheral vision And into my gaze, I think I've been here for most of my days And the lights shine bright from my ceiling and into my eyes While things slowly turn With the patterns of my mind As I lay with my thoughts overlapping My mind overflowing and spilling out into time I see the gears of all my years Slowly turning And churning away at my thinking Have I lost my mind or is there one still out there to find? And a look of indifference washes over my face and my eyes Laced with my ignorance Are the patterns of my mind
