The highway curved before me like your twisted spine dreams become the answers to what was left behind the bridge between the mountains crumbled to the see the beach of desolation became the breath of free Over there its fractured over there decay over turn your car drive to reportray People see it different listen to what they say pantomine indifference thought you couldn't stay The air around was thinner the truth was pale and rare describe your passions quickly the choice is over there around the paradox the banner became clear abandon your traction to reduce all your fear because of large gorillas because of stripped out mines dances too absurd to last the practice so sublime break through spirit breaking break between the waves think before you're choosing the water or the wave

we all look like lions to them we all look like lions to them some of us are dragons and some of us can swim we all look like lions to them Build up your next fall out shelter schedule it into your dreams tear down your independence rip it apart at the seems Fear is the justification blended to the extreme jump out of a burning building play with the riot police Step out of your little prison four walls that make up a cage turn on a noble incision quench all your pent up rage Its not easy being king of the Jungle (King of the Jungle)

30 seconds was all I had to show them portraits made of glass now stolen 13 minutes of artificial snow storms able bodies still lost in the moment the old sun rises to clear the horizon I figured out a new hypothesis the day sun that is ordered is slowly fading to change the celestial slightly more than normal Infringed by my continental boredom the old sun rises to organize the looming crisis ignored by my thoughtful sanctions I felt my mind slowly fading the triumph of the sorted fables to late to operate on life's distractions the new sun rises to remove the violence

Truth and beauty lie underneath the dreaded sky why did the people lie? A selected vision of rich invention an indexed pension forced to recession an over extension of default tension a worthless token of words unspoken Peace and justice rise Only when there's alibis Where did the prophet hide? One man said to me while smilin' without hope there's no denying who saw the alibi? One man said to me while smilin' truth is gone once its broken Why did the children cry? One man said to me while smilin' faith is gone once its broken where did the prophet hide?

She spoke like Niagara falls on a warn out field of ashes the water crashed around them while the fishes swam below the gentle room before them the farm of sweet decay I'm in the way of progress I'm interfering with the truth all the pain and suffering but still there is no proof She thought like the Alamo on a golden branch of light the courage of the past the sacred listless night the people here before her the gentle hope of truth I'm in the way of progress stop the oncoming train the bridge between the island the dam will still remain chaos ensues She dreamed of New York city On a burned out traffic circle of 15000 in the streets the bombast of the the season the presence of the super natural or the former bible belt I'm in the way of progress I knew it from the start I put my best foot forward but they tore it all apart

In the starlight I had a foolish dream a dream of wonder of self professed obscene the clearing symptoms of origin supreme I am winter's dawn I have seen it all I know what went wrong I will understand In the evening I felt a bit obscene I listened to the courage of those who were before me I knew the answer but seldom did I see I dreamed of hope of opportunity In the morning I had a better dream I dreamed of the future of hope and certainty I knew the difference in what I hadn't seen I need a surface a surface to believe

Take your good intentions and leave them at the door change your life's direction embrace the time once more tangled misconceptions are nothing but a bore I woke up just the other day I woke up with nothing much to say I woke up and dreamt another way I looked out into the great back yard I looked out and thought why is life so hard I looked out and chased a fallen star I turned up one day at my job but the lights were dim and the boss was gone a sign on the door said please turn out the lights

about

The Paradise Eaters Kingston, Ontario

Our music is a meal that feeds our souls and drives us to contemplation and ecstasy. The world we experience rattles our psyche’s jarring us into states of frenzied angst, dissolution and musical explosions, while whispering hope through the trees and rippling through clear blue lakes of the Canadian Shield around us. We are driven by elusive sounds of peace and the belief that groove is life! ... more
