If we can see everything that we could be noticing,
And really see,
We can wake from the scenes we’re all dreaming.

Au Revoir Simone

Dreaming takes you where you want to be.

Au Revoir Simone

So let the sun shine, let it come.
To show us that tomorrow is eventual;
We know it when the day is done.

Au Revoir Simone

There will come a day when our cells won’t regenerate
And everyone you know will rot away, rot away.
Your friends and enemies and all your family;
We will all be buried in the ground, in the ground.
Let’s make the most of it.
‘Cause life’s too short to fuck with.

Once an hour a day I get very sad.
Once an hour a day I get depressed.
And when that hour is over I start to feel okay
‘Cause I’m reminded I’ll rot away, rot away.

I don’t have much time to hang out here and cry,
Though that may feel nice, I can’t do that everyday.
I’ve had a lot of friends and they’ve done a lot of drugs
And those drugs made my friends rot away, rot away.

They say Jesus saves, but Jesus doesn’t care
‘Cause he is in a grave, in a grave.
Let’s be our own God, take care of ourselves and the ones that we love.

One day we’ll turn on the tv and we won’t see nothing ‘bout war.
And when that morning comes,
I’ll make coffee and you’ll read the paper,
We’ll talk about our plans
And I’ll keep saying how lucky we are.

Meiko

Hey Jude, don’t make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better

Let’s take the time to walk together while we have the sun,
You never know when temperamental weather’s gonna come.
And if you want to face the death you’re never that far from,
Just take a breath and sing to it when all the day is done.

So, sorry about all the sorrow in your life, you’ll know
It’s true that all the ones you love will someday have to go
And everytime you say goodbye you’ll hear the trumpets blow;
A serenade to the soul, all surrounded by the glow.

If you feel all broken ‘cause I left you there too soon,
Just know that it’s not up to you to make the flowers wilt or bloom
And if you think you’re lonely then just listen for the tune
Of all the stars I left for you in the chest of the moon.

If you want to shake whatever separates you from
The holiness you want to make your life on earth become,
Live your life with a compassion you can be proud of,
Then let your last breath fade away with dignity and love.

Let’s take the time to walk together while we have the sun,
You never know when temperamental weather’s gonna come
And if you want to face the death you’re never that far from,
Just take a breath and sing to it when all the day is done.

If all I see
Is the worst in everything,
That’s all I’m gonna get.

Andrew Jackson Jihad

“Picture where you’d like to go,Take your time, but always knowYou’re there.”

Picture where you’d like to go,
Take your time, but always know
You’re there.”
