Enjoy Your Dream

I sit like a tiger
Waiting to strike
I'm stripes in the tall grass
Highest gear on your bike
You're waving a red flag
I'm losing my cool
I'm sharpening my blades
I'm nobody's fool
Ready set I go
I think fast I move slow
I'm caught in a cyclone
That's turned me to limestone
I'm sleeping on my throne
But nearing a sense that I'm
Ready set I go
I think fast I move slow
I'm caught in a cyclone
That's turned me to limestone
I'm sleeping on my throne
Hear you say
Wake up or enjoy your dream
Move slow like a b-film
No story no pace
The scene's a conveyer
A nondescript face
Your word is a street lamp
Lighting the way
When you see my flicker
Is when I will say
Ready set I go
I think fast I move slow
I'm caught in a cyclone
That's turned me to limestone
I'm sleeping on my throne
But nearing a sense that I'm
Ready set I go
I think fast I move slow
I'm caught in a cyclone
That's turned me to limestone
I'm sleeping on my throne
Hear you say
Wake up or enjoy your dream

Geometric Style
04:30
|

|
we were just a couple of
intersecting lines
meeting in the overlap
at different points in time
derivating from within
a sudden turn around
balancing equations
with the medium of sound
shortest distance in between's a line
so i'm working out the angles and design
taking it by day and by the mile
moving towards your love in geometric style
the space became a problem that
we knew we had to solve
what started as a theory
to proof would soon evolve
your heart is now the axis
on which i rotate all the time
divisible by one and us
together we are prime
shortest distance in between's a line
so i'm working out the angles and design
taking it by day and by the mile
moving towards your love in geometric style

you can see
what it's doing to me
all this fortune telling
and my mind wandering
somehow you
stay calm like blue
in the sky
and green the ground beneath
oh man, what do you get when you cross
a girl with no plan
i digress
tell you everything i guess
could happen to us
mostly bad
you just smile
say i went the extra mile
with that new prediction
of disaster
oh man, what do you get when you cross
a girl with no plan
keep the faith in things to come
i know we want to plan but
keep the faith in things to come
and all the mystery that is to be
keep me close i want to stay or go
the way you go
just wait and see
keep the faith in things to come
i know we want to plan but
keep the faith in things to come
and all the mystery that is to be
will be
oh man, what do you get when you cross
a girl with no plan

bodies in motion
stay in motion
my static is clinging
there's a pent up charge
with nowhere to go
all my inhibitions
just caging my ambitions
i think i could try this
one more time, i like this
i think i could try this
one more time, i like this
i like this, i like this
but i'm happy
in the free-fall
things move quickly
all around me
focus in on
one fixation
will i learn from
this alarming realization?
i think i could try this
one more time, i like this
i think i could try this
one more time, i like this
i like this, i like this

i tripped on something i couldn't see
i tripped on something i couldn't see
now i'm questioning everything around me
cause i tripped on something i couldn't see
i misread something i couldn't hear
i misread something i couldn't hear
yeah i took to heart something that's not real
when i misread something i couldn't hear

Feel The Cold
04:04
|

|
let the grass grow
in around me
i'll make an imprint
in the lawn
you crest the steps
like an archangel
casting shadows
dark and long
i'm not afraid
to feel the cold
it's shown me how
to know the warm
i'm not afraid to
to feel the cold
it's shown me how
to feel the warm

words
hiding in corners
little cobwebs
quiet mourners
try to lure them
from seclusion
start to parse out
old confusion
all these mysteries made in the dark
never really say what's in your heart
how can one untangle something
that's always been played off as nothing
never said it
never kept it, but in quiet
where you fed it
unknowing
you're the master
of the pet you've made from disaster
all these mysteries made in the dark
never really say what's in your heart
how can one untangle something
that's always been played off as nothing
never said it
never kept it, but in quiet
where you fed it
unknowing
you're the master
of the pet you've made from disaster

Crazy Like That
04:04
|

|
moving around i feel something
changed in the air and it's nothing
much bigger than some new perspective
a change in the norm is redemptive
open the blinds and the window
cold rush of air through the willow
flat on the bed i look upright
as white as the moon, pool of sunlight
oh it's crazy like that
one small change and you're back
dreaming away like a child
all your ideas running wild
colors bleed into each other
lines are protective like mothers
happy to try a new mixture
straying away from old fixtures
making a new kind of chaos
embark on a spiritual seance
with you and you're new line of vision
pry through the bars of the prison
oh it's crazy like that
one small change and you're back
dreaming away like a child
all your ideas running wild

i stepped out
i stepped out of my comfort zone
far away from where i kept my heart safe
kept my heart safe for so long
you came around and tore the safety tape right down
i don't want it back, oh yeah i don't want it back
you came around and tore the safety tape right down
i don't want it back, no i don't want it back
i'll stay open
i stepped up
i stepped up when the choice was hard
read the cards and you helped my hand
helped my hand find a match
you came around and tore the safety tape right down
i don't want it back, oh yeah i don't want it back
you came around and tore the safety tape right down
i don't want it back, no i don't want it back
i'll stay open
open
standing on the hill
open
air on all four sides
loving
everything i'm feeling
loving
all of your surprise
i stepped out
i stepped out of my comfort zone
far away from where i kept my heart safe
kept my heart safe for so long
you came around and tore the safety tape right down
i don't want it back, oh yeah i don't want it back
you came around and tore the safety tape right down
i don't want it back, no i don't want it back
i'll stay open

Stay
02:11
|
|||
|
the moon's face is lit up
across a dark sky
each night that rises
it never asks why
the night holds it sweetly
each evening they pair
a dance in the darkness
a kiss at the fair
and i never want to
let go of this
i'll stay
it's peaceful and quiet
all through the day
i love you so much
but i never could say
exactly how it feels
to be held in your arms
oh my darling it's unreal
to witness your charms
and i never want to
let go of this
i'll stay

When The Clouds Break
03:39
|
|||
|
feel the pull of open space
blood rush to the center of the face
flush with crimson, apples of the cheek
and tansy sunlight starts to leak
when the clouds break
just stand there bathing
every weather system
helps create us baby
cocooned in the scent of the earth
the rain perfumes the air with the smell of dirt
hunter gather instincts rising
on alert for all things surprising
when the clouds break
just stand there bathing
every weather system
helps create us baby

Lavenderlux recommends:
All Of It Was Mine
by The Weather Station
The kind of album to put on repeat as you drive through the mountains.
go to album
Shimmery and gritty, synth-y and organic, what is not to love!!? Remi's smooth vocals melt into each track perfectly and the whole album is a mood that you just want to curl up into and space out to.
