There is a mental state
I strive to achieve a homeostatic state a humming a lull like those alpha wave tapes they sold in the 60's
I need to hear that in my head all day. Instead of the clanging of my thoughts and the clashing of my
wants versus what I should do need to do and the sad, bright violins from "Sunshine" so melancholy
so consistent that remind me how it is not to have anyone understand
Hello friend... how has it been...
I've never met you.
I'd never know you if I saw you in the street
And all the history I should know about someone I love so
I don't .
But I do love you.
like you were made for me.
Born of the same celesital fiber.
And that I should have known you.
But time makes it impossible for me to ever
get to know you.
Only through your lyrics
and your soul can I really know
that we were supposed to meet.
Chance happenstance
that my best friend introduced us
and we've been inseparable ever since.
your voices have always been inside
and everything is everything of everything
you'll be to me.
Lord helped me to hear your voice
and make me believe in true feeling again.
In unadultered emotion
and the desire to inspire others
to be young, gifted and believe
that someday we'll all be free.
I love you in a place... where there is no space or time.
Thank you Donny for freeing my soul and opening my mind.
