Who are you and what's your name Do our colors run the same Have you had those dreams and nightmares too? Can you hear or see me now As these strangers all avow Of some truth they could not ever know Yes I know I've seen Things that feel complete What then is my role in this while walking on these streets? Are we some small part of it Whatever it is Why create a question with an answer that's forbid I have felt such joy I do not regret Still I seek the source and why I feel doomed to forget Who are you and what's your name Do our colors run the same Have you had those dreams and nightmares too? Are we some small part of it Whatever it is Why create a question with an answer that is hid Old majestic tree you bear no fruit that I can see Still I lay my head and wait in silence underneath Although peace and calm collect and settle over me Still plagued by these questions of sidewalk ecology

Fables 05:50
Tomorrow I will be a better man Dreams of halcyon days lie in my hands Knowing all the while you'll understand When my feet get caught in this quicksand I may not hurt or kill Rely on my goodwill But am I passing up Some greater good? Oh how could it remain Good conscience with no pain When all I've ever wanted's for myself And will it be enough To live for peace and love While demons pound their fists On foreign doors Tomorrow I will be a better man Say it if you please or if you can The breaking of the dawn it has a plan Will I follow or will I just stand? While tales of wrong and right Are whispered through the night Old Aesop, is he grinning In the morn? Oh how could it remain Good conscience with no pain When all I've ever wanted's for myself And will it be enough To live for peace and love While demons pound their fists On foreign doors Maxims I held close Remembered in last throes What is left to do but wait and see Oh how could it remain Good conscience with no pain When all I've ever wanted's for myself And will it be enough To make it cross the cusp And hear those wild voices Call my name

Sometimes I think that maybe we Joke far too much for our own good It's just too easy not to say All of the things that we should You know sometimes I lose my head I talk too much or fall for sin But even in these darker times Your laugh's enough to do me in And when we find ourselves alone The walls begin to melt away Before you leave from here for good Will I find courage to say I'm only who I want to be When I'm with you.
