can you still feel your body
or have you shut it down
do you need to drink liquor
to feel out on the town
can you feel your heart beating
or are you going numb
can you still feel your body
or do you just cum?
i don't want to compromise your senses
i don't want to confuse or upset you
i don't want to trigger your defenses
but have i really met you?
has anyone met you?
do you touch yourself when nobody's looking
or have you left behind your fantasies
do you need pornographic stimulation
to remember the birds and the bees
is there a way to reach you or are you gone
i'd really like to know your heart and soul
do you let yourself go when no one's looking
or are you out of control in control
too lost in control
in a world of fear
where love is repressed
so don't get undressed
don't even come near
unless you can feel
unless you can care
unless you can trust
for trust is a must
before you can share
so many lonely people have forgotten the song in their hearts
and while that may not be the end of this life
that is where the end starts
do you feel yourself when nobody's looking
or have you lost touch with who you really are
do you need somebody to tell you
what to believe in or how to follow your star
are you just dreaming when you are sleeping
what limits do you place upon your self
do you feel yourself when nobody's looking
or are you like a book upon a shelf
i don't want to mesmerize your senses
i want you to know i won't forget you
i don't want to play with your pretenses
sot have i really met you?
has anyone met you?
are you too lost in control
in a world of fear
where love is repressed
so don't get undressed
don't even come near
unless you can feel
unless you can care
unless you can trust
for trust is a must
before you can share
so many lonely people have forgotten the song in their hearts
and while that may not be the end of this life
that is where the end starts
are you where the end starts
are you where the end starts
are you where the end starts
or are you ready to sing the song in your heart
or are you ready to share the song in your heart
i hope you can share the song in your heart
maybe there is something i can do to understand
the dissatisfaction growing in me about being human
how long denied the self-destructive egocentric way
while pretense is survival and corruption rules the day
still i want to hope
optimism
humanism
still i want to dream
and believe
in humanity
still i want to believe the dream can come true
still i want to believe in you
maybe there is something more i can do to explain
the insensitive ignorance can only lead to pain
how long repressed children taught to ignore their own senses
while life is built on wasteful greed, abuse, and pretenses
still i want to hope
anything is
possible
still i want to dream
and believe
everything can change
still i want to believe the dream can come true
still i want to believe in you
how long can you hide behind god
how long can you shirk your responsibility
how long can you live with your head in the sand
ignoring the cruelty of the way you live
would you dare compare all you take with all you give?
what would the scale tell you
if you dared to be true?
maybe there is something more i can say or do
to somehow get this message into the heart of you
where you cannot ignore the imbalance of mankind
so you cannot choose to remain deaf, dumb, and blind
and still want to hope
we will survive
humanity
we can live the dream
living in peace
human family
still i want to believe the dream can come true
still i want to believe in you
touch someone right now
open your heart
touch someone right now
let the dream start
touch someone right now
all you need to do
touch someone right now
it is up to you
touch someone right now
open your heart
touch someone right now
feel the dream start
touch someone right now
all you need to do
touch someone right now
it is up to you
touch someone right now
open your heart
touch someone right now
this is your part
touch someone right now
all you need to do
touch someone right now
it is up to you
touch someone right now
open your heart
touch someone right now
be the dream
and the dream will start
touch someone right now
all you need to do
touch someone right now
it is up to you
be the dream
and the dream will come true
I left my heart so long ago
in my imagination
now Deepak talks of imaginal cells
beyond human sensation
and butterflies offer a laugh
as tears drown inspiration
just because nobody near
cares
I left my hope so long ago
in my procrastination
when Gandhi talked of selfless acts
and love's emancipation
I bought into a savior's crossing
with holy proclamation
but all I found was nobody
shares
it's a give and take world with everybody taking
and all my giving leaves me empty inside
it's a disillusioned child with a heart still breaking
still looking for a magic carpet ride
and all the half-hearted efforts to give up
to accept the apathy that is the norm
doesn't seem to work for me, there is no holy cup
that brings me comfort in the current storm
what do you want?
what do you want?
I waste my time with these words
are your ears open?
do your eyes see?
what do you believe is me?
what do you want?
what do you want?
why do you come to these words?
what can you relate to?
do you know what is true?
what do you want to do?
who are you?
and what do you want to do?
I left my dream so long ago
in tortured isolation
now Rumi talks of whirling spells
and holy copulation
and caterpillars shed a tear
for human population
a race lost in lies and despair
fears
I left my faith so long ago
in rational revelation
now holy talk of heaven and hell
is sad self-mutilation
does anyone live without fear?
in innocent elation
laughing at the masks everyone
wears
it's a give and take world with everybody taking
and all my giving leaves me empty inside
it's a disillusioned child with a heart still breaking
still looking for a magic carpet ride
and all the half-hearted efforts to give up
to accept the apathy that is the norm
doesn't seem to work for me, there is no holy cup
that brings me comfort in the current storm
but I don't want to play that game anymore
the happy child inside wants to laugh again
trying to fit in to belong to not be alone
is a waste of time in a world of pretense
so keep your promise of tomorrow
living in your world of sorrow
as if this is not the place to be
you are wasted from the start
when fear and lies fill your heart
truth is nothing when you will not see
how can you be trusted?
when you don't take responsibility
how can you be trusted?
when you condemn your own ecstasy
how can you be trusted?
when you live for some future fantasy
how can you be trusted?
when you ignore your own reality
what do you want?
what do you want?
I waste my time with these words
are your ears open?
do your eyes see?
what do you believe is me?
what do you want?
what do you want?
why do you come to these words?
what can you relate to?
do you know what is true?
what do you want to do?
who are you?
and what do you want to do?
I don't want to be no prophet
I don't want to be no sage
I don't want to be no savior
no guru ahead of my age
I don't want to be no genius
I don't want to be above
I don't want to be no poet
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be in love
I just want to be
in love

I left my love so long ago
in betrayed veneration
self-pity and apathy
replaced inclination
joined the web of wasting time
mental masturbation
acute alliteration
self-mocking frustration
synaptic undulation
irreverent aeration
human beneficiation
rhyming affectation
revered imitation
yeah
yeah
yeah
but after all is said and done
I just want some harmless fun
and to share honesty
in reality
and I just want to share
how much I can care
without fear…
and with
honest appreciation
living jubilation
pure emancipation
free invigoration
true actualization
infinite suaviation
creative inspiration
passionate exultation
and playful relaxation
in love
in love
in love - I just want to be
in love
in love
in love - I just want to be
in love
in love
in love - I just want to be
in love
take me away from
the self-involved compassion
for my own private armada
of wounded dreams and pieces
of an age old broken heart
have I forgotten how to start
all over again
have I forgotten how to live
and make a new friend
have I forgotten how to hope
and believe in love
have I forgotten how to dream
or what I dream of
give me a reason
to come out of hibernation
in this wound-licking concerto
of superficial distraction
and creative child's play
have I forgotten what it means
to be alive
have I forgotten how to live
to live to survive
have I forgotten how important
it is to care
have I forgotten how important
it is to share
give me a way to
return to an intimacy
that reaches beyond the body
that does not fear lust
that does not fear trust
give me a way to
return to sincerity
at depths of meaningful
sharing and caring that
means something more
give me a way to
actually make a difference
in this world of plastic promises
and instant gratification
and sound bytes
give me a way to
give me a way to
give me a way to
give me away
