Inert to Noble

Curiosity portends it
Are gaseous thoughts more or less concrete?
Inert to Noble's where the end is
Boiling points are where... I get cold feet
Trade the horse in for a pony
In backward steps you will find that need
Though your copy was a phony
Was it easy for our copies... learning to bleed?
Trains of thought are running by
Years ago they ran on steam
Now the diesel fumes run dry
Precious dregs of a barren dream
Forced demand and no supply
Prices vary in-between
Still the diesel fumes run dry
Mined remains of what had been
Gauge your need to see clearly
A lack of space subsidized by air
Concentrated or completely
Solid are the reasons... reasons to care... care
An afterthought cannot prepare
For the life you've yet to see
All it takes is never there
When it's what you'd like to see
Trains of thoughts all passing by
Fueling off on gasoline
Now in our remains we cry
For the dregs so rarely seen
Raise the heat and we'll expand it
Inspiring atoms from the stream
New resources are demanded
Turn our nightmares back... to steam

You Were Born in a Shoe

You were born in a shoe
I was born in a lake
You don't know what to do
I have a mouth full of steak

Tiny Garden

If you would pardon
A tiny garden
planted in our spare time
I'd like to see
One tiny tree
Planted among the vines
We'd plot it there
And watch it there
Growing in time gone by
And as they climb
We'll see them intertwine
So help me start in
A tiny garden
Where we could plant our lives
And you and me
Can sow the seeds
Just to pass some time

Tired Old Metaphors
01:00
|

Frightened of succeeding
And too proud to fail
Regardless of the feeling
It's time we set sail
And though we lack the deckhands
Or rations to support
Our friends and all our loves
We've already left port
But you say we haven't left yet
That we're still at square one
And though the chessboard's open
You've already succumb
To the life of a pawn
Who's going to die first round
But pawns cannot go backwards
So there's no turning around
Fight your way to the other side
Become a mighty queen
And if you don't mind me joining
I'd like to be your king
Even though your moves are better
It's a throne on which I reside
'Cause any throne is a good one
When it is at your side
