Empire of Sand
11:24

|
You have built an empire
You did it all by hand
Looked upon it, basked in pride
Your empire made of sand
It glinted in the sunlight
The sun's rays shined bright
But your empire made of sand
Did not expect the night
As the sun was setting
Everybody went inside
The moon's effect upsetting
And soon came the tide
With the return of the sun there was nothing to be done
No amount of digging could bring back the fun
The sea, it did offend
This was the end
Of your empire made of sand

Where did they go?
Where do they hide?
Must be a place of wonder
That we can't find
They just disappear
Somewhere out of sight
They must not like it here
They chose to take flight
The land of missing socks
Where nobody talks
But really better yet
No one's there to sweat

Song of the Powers
09:34
|

|
Mine, said the stone,
mine is the hour.
I crush the scissors,
such is my power.
Stronger than wishes,
my power, alone.
(Its force unleashes,
Such is the stone.)
Mine, said the paper,
mine are the words
that smother the stone
with imagined birds,
reams of them, flown
from the mind of the shaper.
(The rest will all moan,
So said the paper.)
Mine, said the scissors,
mine all the knives
gashing through paper’s
ethereal lives;
nothing’s so proper
as tattering wishes.
(The scissors' hand upper,
It said so, malicious.)
As stone crushes scissors,
as paper snuffs stone
and scissors cut paper,
They all end alone.
So heap up your paper
and scissor your wishes
and uproot the stone
from the top of the hill.
They all end alone
as you will, you will.

Alice In Wonderland
08:24

Alice fell down a hole
Wound up in a curious hall
Many doors, from large to small
Drinks and cakes that made her bowl
Her tears formed a pool,
She felt like such a fool,
The animals swam and got cooled,
To get dry, they ran, unruled.
There was the hookah smoking dude,
Sitting on a mushroom, being quite rude
And the grin without a cat,
Also quite the brat.
The March Hare and the hatter ahead,
What was it the dormouse said?
Their tea party, quite Kafkaesque,
"Why is a raven like a writing desk?"
A bizarre game of croquet with the queen,
With flamingos, a very strange scene.
Before the gryphon took her, she heard "Off with his head!"
And the mock turtle, well, he tried to be sad.
Was Alice ever to leave this plane?
Or was she to change sizes again and again?
There was some mess about the theft of a torte,
"All persons more than a mile high must leave the court!"
Now you can chill there by the wall,
Or follow her down the rabbit hole.
Could I interest you in some laughing gas?
Or would you rather walk through the looking glass?

Tell me your story
Don't let it end
Your chronicle is epic
The stuff of legend
Did it ever happen?
Are you telling lies?
This all sounds imagined
Did you really touch the skies?
Play me your music
Let me hear your voice
You need not be elusive
Allow me to rejoice
Is this your writing?
Did you have a choice?
Could you try to be exciting?
It kinda sounds like noise
