sometimes late at night I wonder will I ever find my way around this maze? I find this to be a confusing way of living and I sometimes feel like screaming but then when everything seems wrong an angel comes along reminding me of the beauty of it all when everything seems gone an angel comes along reminding me to be strong people half awake half asleep walking around entangled in complications while half of the answers are fighting for attention I cry silently I think quietly while in my heart I know there´s more than one way but then when everything seems wrong an angel comes along reminding me of the beauty of it all when everything seems gone an angel comes along reminding me to be strong but then when everything seems wrong an angel comes along reminding me of the beauty of it all when everything seems gone an angel comes along reminding me to be strong

don’t be afraid I’m setting you free don’t be afraid I’m letting you be ties keep us from being we belong to our path (alone and apart) together but not one (two under the shining sun) to give without wanting I take chances facing hurt with an open heart so I let you go, I set you free my friend find yourself be strong what will be will be there is no ultimate end

close your eyes and dream close your eyes and forget everything wonder afar, tell me what do you see? what does the world look like beyond reality? there is no story there is no real glory there is only what you see when you set your spirit free look at the stars, look at the constellations look at the moon, look at the sand and you will understand if you and I were born in a place that had no name it wouldn’t matter if our skins were not the same if you and I agree that love will set us free we’ll spread the word, we’ll spread the word

I slept in the house of the whispering pillow I got caught on spiderwebs of light I heard inside myself so many voices I got caught on spiderwebs of light like a stone it hits the core burning down every pore slowly rotting when you let it stand it will cry out it will demand can’t see how to hold it any longer can’t wait is it getting stronger just listen to the voice inside you and let it guide you, let it guide you

first I want you to know that it’s true, it’s all true first I want you to know that it’s true, that I love you and oh how I wish that it would all be good but now I think you don´t care and it´s beginning to tear this love I think that I am being more blind than kind do you think we can unwind this mess?

In the shadows of my mind I believe that there´s a higher task awaiting for me ahead in the shadows of my mind I believe that in this life without these ties we can fly higher I’ve been searching for the right thing the right one the right sign but I see now it’s all here inside of me I’ve been searching for the right thing the right one the right sign but I see now there’s nowhere to look but here through and through navigating this space I am all alone I know that now through and through navigating this space I am all alone I know that now so many things can stop the flow but I’ll let it show and I’ll let it glow something tells me that this searching will never stop the answers will be as always inside of me I’ve been searching for the right thing the right one the right sign but I see now it’s all here inside of me I’ve been searching for the right thing the right one the right sign but I see now there´s nowhere to look but here through and through navigating this space I am on my own I know that now through and through navigating this space I am all alone I know that now

how hard is it to open the heart? how hard is it to let go completely? side by side we walk and dance and smile but secretly we fear cause letting go of you and everything that your love means to me is not easy I think I’ll only make you cry I think I’ll only make you cry make you cry unspoken words they flash through my eyes when I see you and I feel what you feel hurt is always so near careful with each other please I just want us both to be released from each others’ expectations of what in our minds you and I means I think I’ll only make you cry think I’ll only make you cry, make you cry

The Bubble 06:55
what is out there no one knows preconceptions I behold I know the universe provides got to learn to trust the source of all life in celestial tubes I travel through distances images of fractal shapes, conceiving all this time space I am in the flow in the glow lost inside the void astral projection I have reached no destination yet I am back where I belong
