The Forest (For The Trees)
You can’t see the forest for the trees…
Nightfall
We are all on the same wavelength
Individual, yet we are the same
I feel like I know you, I’m one with your strength
Illuminate nightfall as we live the game
I feel like I know you, I’m one with your strength
Illuminate nightfall as we live the game
Staring through the empty space
There is nothing more to face
I feel like I know you, I’m one with your strength
Illuminate nightfall as we live the game
I feel like I know you, I’m one with your strength
Illuminate nightfall as we live the game
SOLO
We are all on the same wavelength
Individual, yet we are the same
I feel like I know you, I’m one with your strength
Illuminate nightfall as we live the game
I feel like I know you, I’m one with your strength
Illuminate nightfall as we live the game
(Illuminate nightfall as) we live the game…
Images Of Freedom
You can make your dreams forever
There is so much to enjoy
Only you can make it happen
There is so much to enjoy
Creating images of freedom/You always want what you don’t have
You must take your chances in life
There is so much more to see
You must believe just to survive
There is so much more to see
Creating images of freedom/You always want what you don’t have
SOLO
Everlasting moments you hold
There is so much love to give
Just hold on to the fire within
There is so much love to give
Creating images of freedom/You always want what you don’t have
Don’t hide yourself from the whole world
There is so much time to share
Open your mind to the outside
There is so much time to share
Creating images of freedom/You always want what you don’t have
Veil Of Illusion
You’ve got to unveil the illusion… (4x)
Changing emotion
Too much internal commotion
Vision feeds the light
Through the window of your third eye
Love feeds compassion
Learn to live your life in action
Hate breeds confusion
Learn to unveil the illusion
You’ve got to unveil the illusion… (4x)
Patterns disarranged
Holds you in a whirlwind of change
Superconsciousness
Leads you from a world of distress
Love feeds compassion
Learn to live your life in action
Hate breeds confusion
Learn to unveil the illusion
[Interlude]
Lost behind the veil of illusion… (4x)
You’ve got to unveil the illusion… (4x)
Love feeds compassion
Learn to live your life in action
Hate breeds confusion
Learn to unveil the illusion
Einstein’s Prison
You think you are all alone with no connections
Restricting all your desires and affections
You are just a particle in time
Trapped in Einstein’s prison
Held captive in your mind
You pretend there are no true friends anymore
Separating your soul from your inner-core
Tearing the very fabric of time
Trapped in Einstein’s prison
Held captive in your mind
[Interlude]
Break free from this cage you are in
Embrace everything that you are
One with nature and beauty
Just a dream beyond the stars
Break free from this hell you are in
Realize things aren’t what they seem
Life is just your reflection
Just a dream within a dream
[Interlude]
You think you are all alone with no connections
Restricting all your desires and affections
You are just a particle in time
Trapped in Einstein’s prison
Held captive in your mind
Break free from this cage you are in
Embrace everything that you are
One with nature and beauty
Just a dream beyond the stars
Break free from this hell you are in
Realize things aren’t what they seem
Life is just your reflection
Just a dream within a dream
Break free from this cage you are in
Embrace everything that you are
One with nature and beauty
Just a dream beyond the stars
Just a dream beyond the stars…(2x)
Infinite Mirrors
Your world is full of mirrors
Infinite mirrors
If you look deep enough you will find
That you exist somewhere else
You world is just a dream
An imaginary reality
You know this because you are awake
And you realize that everything you see
Is just a reflection of you
[Solo]
When you stop all thought you become aware
You are everything and nothing at once
Existing in a perfect field of clear light
Limitless eternal experience
Experience…(3x)
Clay Consciousness
Your intelligence makes a difference
In the quality of your life journey
Careful attention in the dimensions
Will demystify all reality
Different people may come and then go
The more that you meet the more you will know
Take nothing for granted
Sow the seeds that you’ve planted
In your clay consciousness
Your clay consciousness
[Interlude]
Seek and you know you will find
Knowledge of the sublime
No more mysteries about your survival
Seek and you know you will find
Knowledge of the sublime
No more mystery
All understanding and your compassion
Opens your mind’s eye, giving clarity
Deep meditation on the Universe
Will demystify all reality
Different people may come and then go
The more that you meet the more you will know
Take nothing for granted
Sow the seeds that you’ve planted
In your clay consciousness
Your clay consciousness
