The Whaling Town
03:44
|
|||
|
Three hundred and sixty five is the number of times I've fallen down
And everyday I find a new way
I'm Curled and crying…
White walls and corners…erode away…erode away.
And I found all I needed…
And I found what I should have known…
Here is this small whaling town……alone.
Now my orchards have grown
With the fruits of my labors on every tree
I'm Naked and drifting…and
I’m lifted from this daily curse…everyday....everyday...
And I found all I needed…
And I found what I should have known…
Here is this small whaling town……alone.
Still I found all I wanted…
Still I found what no one could have shown…
Here in this small whaling town

I am a Ghost
04:29
|

|
Please get this sour taste from my mouth
Your lips are bitter to the touch
The circles and lines that divide us
Are breaking down around us
I am a ghost
I am nothing more than a faded face
Another morning I wake up alone
Faceless, nameless, souls in my mind
Your lying drapes fall…to the ground
To reveal your art is not of love
anymore
I am a ghost
I am nothing more than a faded face
Inside everyone what we see, is what we seek
Now lay me to bed…and…
Bag me to raise…and…
Tare out my rib…and…apologize
I am a ghost
I am nothing more than a faded face

Embrace Me
04:45
|
|||
|
Tears of long days gone by
For all the sounds we made there
If the eye is the window….
Then the mouth is the mega phone.
Embrace me
And make me whole again
Embrace me
And make me live again
Embrace me
And make me whole again
Burn all that is left behind
Fears for life forgotten
And all the hallways of our past
You kiss the ground like water
And Trip the light fantastic
Embrace me
And make me whole again
Embrace me
And make me live again
Embrace me
And make me whole again
Burn all that is left behind
Embrace me
And make me whole again
Embrace me
And make me live again
Embrace me
And make me whole again
Burn all that is left behind…..burn…burn…burn

Beautiful Ways
03:42
|
|||
|
Water pours from her eyes
As The lover burns
Diamonds spill to the floors
Her lover to never speak no more
Never hold her, to adore
He sleeps the forever dream.
To one day call her name again in the universal stream.
Wont you touch my face
Wont you help me leave this place
Wont you whisper me away...with your beautiful ways
I can see through you.
To your beauty and your youth
To your eternal self and your everlasting truth
And I hope that I am wrong?
That the soul, it does go on now
And that we might meet again someday
and then I can be strong
Wont you touch my face
Wont you help me leave this place
Wont you whisper me away...with your beautiful ways

Coma
03:42
|
|||
|
I've taken this body for the learning
I've taken it for 100 years or so
These eyes I've borrowed…
I Have seen the coming and goings of an age.
Wake me from this coma
Wake me from this dream
Wake me from this coma
Wake me from the slumber I live
The coil we build is long
Like the rungs of my white ladder
And the chord I hold on.
Please don't take this a grain of salt
I must tell you everything before the time runs out
Wake me from this coma
Wake me from this dream
Wake me from this coma
Wake me from the slumber I live
the shadows of our fathers
warn us to watch our backs
from the technology bringing us closer and closer together
while tearing us further and further apart
Wake me from this coma
Wake me from this dream
Wake me from this coma
Wake me from the slumber I live

Into the Ocean
04:55
|
|||
|
Think before you leap
Swim before you fall
Question everything
Or understand nothing
And You wear your soul, upon your sleeve
And you wear your heart, so far underneath
This mask you've worn for years, my love
Let it crumble
Let it fade
Let it fall…
Into the sea
We lie here in the tall grass
Comparing our scars of wars gone past
we tell the tails of loss and love
And the girl that got away
And You wear your soul, upon your sleeve
And you wear your heart, so far underneath
This mask, you've worn for years, my love
Let it crumble
Let it fade
Let it fall…
Into the sea

PAUL MAUER and the SILENCE Longview, Washington
The Pacific Northwest is an amazing place to grow up. The entire area holds to this day a sense of fascination, wonder, and an overwhelming feeling of welcome and mystery for me. It is a Very tactile environment both the people, the music, and of course the weather! its a pretty weird place, I love it! I hail from the capitol city of Olympia, WA, an awesome city to be tutored in the way of music. ... more
