Holidays
Holidays
by THE LONELY WILD
Get yourself together
Prepare for bad weather
Holidays are coming
To rip your heart open.
I’ll be in the kitchen
Fixing up a drink. Go
Put your face on
Pretend nothing’s wrong
Did you get just what you wanted?
Every year is haunted
With failure and promise
Keeping us honest
Go get yourself together
Prepare for bad weather
Holidays are coming
To rip your heart open
Just don’t freak out
Just don’t let me down
Feel the days falling
Early in the morning
Hide under the covers
Until you hear the fireworks
A Lovely Wait
A Lovely Wait
by NATHAN PARTAIN
I’ve seen great beauty in the starlit sky,
In the sweep of music, in my lover’s eyes,
But it has no weight apart from you.
I’ve sought for comfort, and I’ve scrounged for rest,
And I’ve searched for someway I could be content,
But the land is wanton, without you.
I’ve known man’s glory, just how it lasts,
With its fading flower and its witheried grass,
Cause There’s nothing living, without you.
I found innocence was stained, all the gold was lead,
I drank the ocean but I thirst again.
Cause the heart is restless without you.
You are the Light
You are the Light
by THE INNOCENCE MISSION
And I would like to cry in the car
The blue violet hills and the voice of Neil Young
I left the flowers outside your door
Your curtains were flying
Though you were not at home
And I can only say that I have hoped for you
Safety from fears and darkness
Are you feeling better than before?
There’s a hidden life for everyone
Sorrow remains though you can tell no-one
The Host on your tongue is a perfect moon
It does shine inside you
You shine into the room
And I can only say that I have hoped for you
Safety from fears and darkness
Are you feeling better than before?
Down in the hallways in wintertime
There is your great kindness
And you are the light
And I can only say that I have hoped for you
Safety from fears and darkness
Are you feeling better than before?
And I can only say that I have hoped for you
Safety from fears and darkness
Are you feeling better than before?
Love is a Gift
Love is a Gift
by NATHAN PARTAIN
Love is a gift, but it’s not free.
Love gives and gives until it bleeds.
Love doesn’t try to even keep it’s dignity.
Love is a gift, but it’s not free.
Love is simple, but it’s not easy.
Love is forgiveness before apology.
Love bruised and beaten moves toward its enemies.
Love is simple, but it’s not easy.
Love, I can’t get to you.
Love, you’re out of reach.
Love, If you are listening,
Love, come for me.
Love is gentle but its not weak.
Love crushed the head of Depravity.
Love marches steadfast in the flood of entropy.
Love is gentle but its not weak.
Love, I betrayed you.
Love, I’ve run away.
Love, I have been captured.
Love, come for me.
Love is a savior, Christ Jesus my King.
Love took my judgment on the tree.
Love traded splendor for my vulgarity.
Love is a savior, Jesus my King.
Love, I need you.
Love, don’t ever leave.
Love, when I wander,
Love, come for me.
Total Entertainment Forever
Total Entertainment Forever
by FATHER JOHN MISTY
Bedding Taylor Swift
Every night inside the Oculus Rift
After mister and the missus finish dinner and the dishes
And now the future’s definition is so much higher than it was last year
It’s like the images have all become real
And someone’s living my life for me out in the mirror
No, can you believe how far we’ve come
In the New Age?
Freedom to have what you want
In the New Age we’ll all be entertained
Rich or poor, the channels are all the same
You’re a star now, baby, so dry your tears
You’re just like them
Wake on up from the nightmare
Come on
Oh ho oh
Oh
Oh ho oh
No gods to rule us
No drugs to soothe us
No myths to prove stuff
No love to confuse us
Not bad for a race of demented monkeys
From a cave to a city to a permanent party
Come on
Oh ho oh
Oh
Oh ho oh
When the historians find us we’ll be in our homes
Plugged into our hubs
Skin and bones
A frozen smile on every face
As the stories replay
This must have been a wonderful place
