Mmm
MmmI will see you off now down the back of the ridge
There’s just something that I got to show you
There is domer and there’s rot and the common case
It ain’t nothin’ what you say is trueWith your long arms, try and just give some time
Presently, it does include my dues
Ain’t your standard premonitions, all this phallic repetition
Boy, you tell yourself a tale or twoMan like you
Man, improveWell, I know that we set off for a common place
And the lines have run too deep
How much caring is there of some American love
When there’s lovers sleeping in our streets?So Cerberus Ride! Bring those dead alive
Like Pirate Jenny on the Black Freighter
It’ll be a long day of fixing, make something else your mission
Boy, why this shit so hard to cue?Man like you
How you do? -
Go, ahead and tell me you got all you want
Fiver says you’re wrong
And I suppose you’ve come down to help me
Move things alongAnd we lapped it up and we’re wise enough to know
How it goes to get me honey
But we’re wise enough to know
How it goes to get me honey
‘Cause we know this feeling all a little too wellListen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
Once we closed that difference, you turned up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid offSo yeah, go, ahead and tell me something real
Come on, how’d you feel?
And I suppose you’ve come down to help me
Answer to the riddle
To the riddleWhy we laughed it off and we’re wise enough, who knows?
How it goes to get me honey
But we’re wise enough to know
How it goes to get me honey
‘Cause we know this feeling all a little too wellListen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
Once we closed that difference, you turned up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid offAnd it’s by the by
If it makes those nights fine
We were side by side again
And now, we’re all careless and loved up
You know exactly how it goes
When you’re giving us all kind of reason
Thought I had to go
Follow the heart I believe in, ’cause one of us must know
When you’re giving us all kind of reason
Thought I had to go
Follow the heart I believe in, ’cause in the past it’s done me good
So good, so good, so goodListen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
Once we closed that difference, you turn up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid offListen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
Once we closed that difference, you turn up like a friend of mine
Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
As if one of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid off
One of our longshots paid off -
If you were falling, then I would catch you
You need a light, I’d find a match
‘Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I amIf you are chilly, here take my sweater
Your head is aching, I’ll make it better
‘Cause I love the way you call me baby
And you take me the way I amI’d buy you Rogaine
When you start losing all your hair
Sew on patches to all you tear‘Cause I love you more than
I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am
You take me the way I am
You take me the way I am -
I feel light, even in my darkest hour,
The weight of this truth, it calms me.
To be light, grounded by a heavy heart,
And by the deeds they have done.Then let the night show me the way,
Will darkness complete me?
Even invite shadow to stay,
As I gift the Lake each silent ache
That burns endlessly.Lovely Lake, well-spring of all living things,
This paradise on earth, she calms me.
Water of life, give me my eternal sleep;
Oasis of blue, my grave.So let the night show me the way,
Let darkness complete me;
I now invite shadow to stay
As I gift the stars my silent scars
That burn endlessly.I feel light, even in my darkest hour.
I feel light. -
In an ordinary world filled with ordinary people…a little love can create something…extraordinary…

“You don’t think I’m annoying?”
“No, not at all.”
“Really? Even when I say stupid things? And ask to see your willy?”
“Even then.”
I don’t even know what to say, so instead of saying anything, I step into him. “Thank you.”
“You don’t need to thank me.”
My chest almost aches, and I have this weird feeling in my stomach. It’s not a bad feeling, but it’s a strange one. One I don’t seem to know how to understand. I slide my arms around him and press myself to him so I can tuck my face against his neck.
“I don’t know why this makes me feel so weird,” I mumble.
“A good weird or a bad weird?” he asks as he slides his hand under my shirt and gently runs his fingers over my back.
“A good weird. Stop! I can’t take any more of this! My body doesn’t know how to respond. I think it’s shutting down. I think I’m dying, Jackson. Is that what this feeling is?”
He shakes his head as he chuckles. “You’re not dying.”

“You remake the world a hundred times a day.

Brian frowned, then cleared his throat. He slowly released Sway’s face then lifted his hands and signed. “I wasn’t sure I’d ever get here. To this place in my head. A place where it’s calm. It took a long time to get here. I don’t feel the same way I used to. I was sure I’d be alone forever, Sway, before I met you. So, thank you.” Brian’s hand movements were full of the emotions he was feeling. “Thank you for being a fighter. You heard me, well before I could speak… and you never ran from me. I’ve searched for you for so long. I’ve traveled the world ten times over and I’ve never met anyone as brave and special as you. I’ve hunted you for forty years, Sway. You are who I’ve really been searching for all this time.”

Will you touch me, will you touch me
When my body’s full of fear?
Will you reach me, will you reach me
When my body’s so cold?Nothing short of the softest word can reach me now.
Nothing but the warmest heart can touch me nowWill you hold me, will you hold me
When my mind is full of fears?
Will you kiss me, will you kiss me
When my mind is so down?All my life the doors kept closing on me
Nothing in the world can
Open my heart but some kindnessWill you touch me, will you touch me
When I’m shaking in fear
Will you reach me, will you reach me
When I’m trembling with tearsAll my life the doors kept closing on me.
And nothing in the world can open my heart
But your kindness -
Walking down the road
I feel so low, low, low
And I’m feeling like I don’t know life
I don’t know, know, know
There’s something in my head
Something haunting me
Something that I’d rather say
Goodbye, goodbyeIt’s another deception
It’s a voice that’s being cruel
It’s the predator deep insideYou meet a Bluebeard on the road
He’s saying hello, hello
And he shakes you by the hand
He says you’re gonna blow
Man you’re gonna blow
He’s a clever person my dear
He’s a clever one to fear
He’s the one that says don’t open up that doorIt’s a monster, I can tell you
It’s someone to be scared of
It’s the predator deep insideHe’s coming for you
He’s coming for you now
He’s coming for you now
He, he sounds a little scary
As he whispers, he tells you and you frownYou’re losing, losing your ground
You want to, move him out
Deny he’s there
But you can’t let out that he’s in your headIt’s the predator
It’s the predator who lives inside your headIt’s the predator inside you
It’s remarkable disguise–you
It’s the mask you won’t admit inside your headWalk with the man at night
He says he don’t know, know, know
And he’s fucking with your head
You don’t know, know, knowIt’s radio k-fuck
It’s coming in loud and clear
But the signals crossed
You can’t shut it off
And it knows no fearIt’s a monster
I can tell you
It’s someone to be scared of
It’s the predator deep insideIt’s not the sharks outside you
It’s not living
