he could have had it all, but instead he chose to fall

far from grace, to this place, between his fingers but a single ace

an imperfect hand, buried in the sand, nowhere near land

and still, he won the race; and still you see his face

murder was the case, a generation lost in space

digging, crawling, anything to stall the stand

the story sung in names; every singer, every band

and still, he won the race; and still you see his face

in the beginning, he screams with new inflection

back to the river, where the devil can't find me

everyone must be saved, she sings in perfection

from Shakespeare a question, to b... or not to be?

the earth rattles these days of lore

with every word, just a tad bit more

newton, maxwell, oh... what a bohr

does anyone wonder what's in store?

open your mouths and speak

save in this place, i am just a leak

some basket Anansi carried up a tree

a bit of everything sprinkled over the sea

it's a just a rhyme, a generation lost in time

dreaming of quantum accelerators and flux capacitors

you shall have no gods before me, as he flipped a dime

a lucky clover, a field of dreams, this is really it

verily, verily, verily... i say to you

to see it as veritas, if i able, if i can

in the meantime gaze at the light of cloar

and wonder aloud "is le gloan a starfighter?"

on this command, on "open" says, uh... me

please, please stand

abra cadabra, ha "message"

woven in our soul

http://almost.lamc.la at "adam's light" most...

message of kilmer, avril, hammer

what,' have you seen a ghost?

baby it's me, can't you see? what this silence does to "we"

baby I need you, to see it through, baby my face is blue

have faith in we, take the leap, share the sword, and be

stand up here, in the light of day, stand right next to me

only one way out of this place, straight up, come back

it doesn't even matter to me if you see it as a race

tears of joy, for the human race, baby smash the stack

don't cry for me, don't run away, today is here

diamonds are forever

U               n           I

so _mart                 our bart

look I see a heart    well that's a start

and didn't you hear?   i wanna party every day

they can call this spacestation, nothin' but a playstation

but, listen to me, i know in my heart it's a shining ray

from far and wide, straight from the other side

baby don't take my sunlight away

oh dear sea, is it tomarfow?

can you see, oh say it

-josephenix

is me

ad

?

heaven's gonna start... tod__.

four famous first words

                      everything is proceeding as i have forseen

                you can fire your arrows from the tower of babel

                      i'm not the messiah, just a very naughty boy

                    holy shit

aside from the smiles they bring to our sea

you can be sure none of them are a thing like me

and you're gonna know, you just wait and see

​

i can say it's horizon until i'm blue in the face.

our father, who-art of heaven, hallowed be thy name

thy kingdom come, thy will be done

on earth, as it is in heaven.

give us this day, our daily bread
