common pasts

I am
haunted
by the violence
centuries of
oppression
a space to be human/again
the story of this country is never neutral
don't forget
the restless ghosts are waiting
they say
"take me"
"take me to the place where they know my name"
hurt me
it will
come back

social paranoia
02:56
|
|||
the actions are social
but the mind it remains
so private
who gets to draw the lines?
do they decide if there are sides?
who plays the actor?
who plays the waiter?
why does this even matter?
I'm not sure
but it matters
who gets to draw the lines?
do they decide if there are sides?
the actions are social
but the mind is private
this social paranoia
is stunting us all
inside
outside
who gets to draw the lines?
do they decide if there are sides?

one in four
02:22
|
|||
stay
go away
down on the ground
we mess around
turn/to what/you know
stay
will you play?
risk it all
for a little love
one in four
tender then cold

regard for reality
03:23
|
|||
I'm looking out the window
staring at the other windows
at the end of the day
we can see through it
but we
we can't see it through
we're writing out letters
changing perspectives
I can't stop thinking
is there any regard for reality?
at the end of the day
we can still see through it
at the end of the day
we will see right through it
we're writing out letters
craving connection
craving transparency
is there any regard for reality?

Octavia
02:51
|
|||
send me
into outer space
free fall
into the deepest blue
unbound
testing
we are new
show me
ancient tools
break down
a new society
liberation fantasy
Octavia
it's more than fantasy
it's more than you and me
unbound
power
to the truth
side by side
we are
stronger!

food and shelter
02:38
|
|||
escape for millions
a flight for everyone
because it's cold again
food and shelter, a good friend
escape for millions
a flight for everyone
a nearly constant sense
of what we represent
how many dead?
how many still alive, unable to survive?
unable to stay?
because it's cold again
food and shelter, a good friend

not what it seems
02:40
|
|||
I'm stuck between
movement and regressing
what once was seen
now returns only in my dreams
if you look deep
between the waves of concrete
you might see
this world is not what it seems
drawing maps in our minds
while we're driving through the trees
each curve is there
and we're filling in the streets
we're stuck between
between those waves of concrete
drawing maps in our minds
while we're out in the trees
each curve is there
and we're filling in the streets
and each turn is there
and we're filling in the streets
but the houses
they are gone

common futures
02:39
|
|||
water
vapor
river
ether
air and
windy cities
we are
one
I see abundance/I am whole
I see connected/futures
imagine the future we want
there is no shortage of love
