They come here to be invisible
They came here to live in the fog
The mind is full of lies
That paint the world in shades of black
The only way to kill the spark
Is a chemical blend of ennui
That numbs the pain of the night
And gives you an itch to scratch in the morning

All we have is today, this moment
What you are doing now
Determines your future
Your thoughts are merely bones
With no meat
Castles in the sky
What can you do right now
To be a better person?

Stomach knotted red faced
Go away head case

If I can see it
I can be it
If I can dream it
I can do it
Where there's a will
There's a path
Where there's work
There is reward

Ride a manta ray into the clouds
Close your eyes and hallucinate
Tumble down a canonball
Spread your wings and catch a wave
Go somewhere just out of your mind
Leaving not a trace behind

Tired of these doctors
And their stupid theories
Western medicine is so limited
Focusing on the cure and not the cause of the disease
The wisdom is in the history
Understanding all the systems
Inflammation is not a drug shortage
Telling you nothing will work but the pills

I know it's hard
It always gets hard
As long as the hamster runs
We will face obstacles
Threats
But you've done it all before
Many moons ago
Don't you remember?

Words are for edification
The mind is a generator
The mouth a poor editor
Who is sitting calmly at the desk
Deciding which words move forward?

How does truth smell?
Have you ventured near enough?
Can you feel what excites you
What makes your heart light?
We all know fear
It lurks in the pits
Of the parts we ignore
Our nether-waste-lands
But once you get a taste
Of the peace and ease
When communication flows
And intentions are revealed
It's a bumpy ride back to the isolated badlands
Better to sunbathe on the shore and stay fixed on beauty

Go with the flow
Is the greatest advice
That doesn't mean surrendering a greater cause
It means being smart in your negotiations
Sometimes the flow drops or curves sharply
The wisdom is maintaining steadiness in your craft
And being aware enough of your surroundings to stay in the current
We all ride the waves through time
And get knocked off the rafts through inattention or mistakes
Fluidity is efficient, a drop in a wave
Rigidity fights for life in a sea of change
