Seems to me, somethin' diff'rent,
is that just my own excuse?
Could I plan the weather's forecast?
...like ecological abuse...
{chorus}
Where's the mountain that I should climb?
Broke my back, now I've got no spine.
Pitiful, i'm left behind.
Broken Ladder...left behind...
Time's fate, don't make me wiser.
Still i'm older in my years.
Try to dodge and skip misfortune,
but can't explain away the fears.
{chorus}
Deaf to see and blind to hear, now...
How i've stumbled thru the door.
Life for some is so fragile,
while others seek out what it's for...
{chorus}
SHORT BUS
...For all of those who called me special.
...didn't really know, just what that means.
I'd blow it off thinking they're jealous
...with their stupid jokes & acting mean.
Folks that I met here said: "They'd Help me"
Snickering & laughing, 'hind my back.
I wish that they could only realize.
That I have feelings. I have tact, yeah...Hitchin' a ride.
Hitchin' a ride on the Short Bus.
Thinkin' it's the shortest way there.
Hitchin' a ride on the Short Bus.
Hopin' that it'll someday, get me there.
In this cold, cruel world are people
That think it's ok, to be a jerk.
I wish someday, that they would notice
That being nice is how it works.
Some would be polite & call me different.
Even tho they used a mocking tone.
But I would play along just for their friendship.
Even tho I'd end up all alone,yeah...
Hitchin' a ride on the Short Bus.
Hitchin' a ride 'til it gets me there.
Hitchin' a ride on the Short Bus.
Hopin' that someday it'll get me there.
Time & again, it seemed peculiar.
When I asked a question, they would stare.
Never did I realize I was special.
I just thought that others didn't care...yeah
Hitchin' a ride on the Short Bus.
Hitchin' a ride 'til it gets me there.
SUNNY DAY
WEATHER MAN SAID IT'S, "COLD AND CLOUDY"
BUT I KNOW IN MY HEART IT'S A WARM & SUNNY DAY.
MIGHT BE RAIN, MIGHT BE SNOW,
MIGHT BE HAIL BY FRIDAY
BUT I KNOW, IN MY SOUL
IT’S A SUNNY DAY!
AH YOURE ACTING WITH A COLD CRUEL HEART...
BETTER OFF PLANNIN'
A FRESH NEW START; YEA
YEA, SEE THOSE GREY CLOUDS DON'Y HOLD NO RAIN
LET IT GO & YOU WON'T FEEL THE PAIN.
LAUGH & SMILE, EVEN IF IT TAKES A WHILE
YOU'LL FEEL SO MUCH BETTER
WRAP YOURSELF IN THE CLOTH
OF A WARM & SUNNY DAY!
MIGHT BE RAIN,MIGHT BE SNOW,
MIGHT BE HELL BY FRIDAY...
BUT I KNOW IN MY SOUL IT'S A WARM & SUNNY DAY.
the Weight Outside
Are We Only the Victim’s? OF OUR CIRCUMSTANCE?
HAVE WE ALL FORGOTTEN?
HOW TO SING & DANCE?
WAITING OUTSIDE LIKE SHADOWS.
FOR THE SUN’S FACE TO FADE.
LANGUISHING IN THE NOTION.
THAT THERE’LL BE BETTER DAYS.
EMBRASSING THE PEACE
AND THE WEIGHT OUTSIDE
WHEN IT WILL ALL CEASE!
THE WEIGHT OUTSIDE!
CONTEMPLATING THE PEACE...
AND THE WEIGHT OUTSIDE
WHEN WILL IT ALL CEASE?
THE WEIGHT OUTSIDE...
IN ALL OUR MINDS LIFETIME
STILL WE CAN SEEM TO CARE...
OPENING UP OUR HEARTS.
BE IT TRUTH OR DARE.
WAITING BRIGHT LIKE A CANDLE.
FIRE BURNS IN OUR SOUL.
WATHCHING WHILE THE SHADOWS
ARE DANCING IN THE GLOW.
being on the spiritual path. being on the spiritual path is having the hunger that makes us seek and ask..and the spiritual is the beautiful and whatever makes us dance and laugh..the spiritual path is like a river and how water wears away the stone..of the islands we are stranded on all alone..and like a child running and playing in the rain..a sunflower on a cloudy day waiting for the sun to shine again..the growing pains and is our souls giving birth..to a new heaven and a more perfect earth.
hey geo... how've you been travelin'!? thanks for the cash story. it either burned down becuase of that or becuase of the almighty's wrath that the home of cash was bought by a bee gee. Ole!
