Encased in scaly skin
No one will see them different again
Encased in scaly skin
No one will see the souls within
Encased in scaly skin
No one will see them different again
No matter what you say or do
Always the snake in the sea
No reform or regret allowed
Nightmare grade, wrecker of dreams
Leviathan, scaly fortress, writhing demon
Leviathan, damned forever, no redemption
Leviathan, reprimanded, feared and branded
Leviathan
Desperate for some affirmation
Looking toward love and affection
Need to rest, relive, move through
on an island in the ocean blue
Leviathan, scaly fortress, writhing demon
Leviathan, damned forever, no redemption
Leviathan, reprimanded, feared and branded
Leviathan
Encased in scaly skin
No one will see them different again
Encased in scaly skin
No one will see the souls within
Encased in scaly skin
No one will see them different again

Hidden Sun
04:56

Red signal tower ceaselessly repeating,
Like a strong, deep heart that's always beating,
With the asphalt in front of me,
To the night I look inward to see.
I think of who I am,
And what I've be-come,
Reflected light from the moon shows the way,
Rays of hope from a hidden sun.
In the day, flowers dance in the fields,
As they fade, what will darkness reveal,
The road dips in gray depression,
To e-merge on a radiant hill.
In the dim glow of countless streetlamps,
I see myself as I am and do not run,
Reflected light from the moon shows the way,
Rays of hope from a hidden sun.
With no headlights straight into ghostly night,
like a heavy gray coat,
See the black and white world like a familiar friend,
And the moon as a glimmer of home.
I think of who I am,
And what I have not done,
Reflected light from the moon shows the way,
Rays of hope from a hidden sun.

There’s gonna be a…
Fight! Tonight! The black and the white,
The left and the right, The will and the might
Fists and bombs and knives and guns
Beliefs and sex, revenge and fame
Guns and knives and fists and bombs
Money and gangs, zealots and sects
diff’rent walks, diff’rent plights, diff’rent thoughts
There’s gon-na be a…
Fight! Tonight! The black and the white,
The left and the right, The will and the might
Guns and knives and fists and bombs
Money and gangs, zealots and sects
Fists and bombs and knives and guns
Beliefs and sex, revenge and fame
diff’rent walks, diff’rent plights, diff’rent thoughts
There’s gonna be a…
Fight! Tonight! The black and the white,
The left and the right, The will and the might

Encounters

What, do you see
When you look, to the sky?
Millions of stars, sparkling twilight
Think, about all
The worlds you can't see
Is there something out there gazing back at me
Will we talk? Could they speak?
In a language that we both reach
Would they have, Arms and legs
Fingers, toes and a head
Could they breathe, and desire
Do they dream, and aspire
Would they sleep? Do they see?
How precious, this life can be?
Would I lose my head when we first met
Would I shout? Would I run?
Would we embrace instead
Would they act…just the same?
Maybe they would have the same names
If we could,…would we mate?
Would I share their bed
Could we share a fate?
Or would they lose their head
when we first met
Would they shout, would they run
would they rip me to shreds?
Think about all
The worlds you can't see
Is there something out there gazing back at me?

Emerson Song (35 sec)

“Tomorrow is a new day,
You will begin it serenely,
With too high a spirit,
To be encumber with your own nonsense.
Forget them,"
Forget them,
"As soon as you can,"
As soon as you can!
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
