2. Cave of the Tenderthals – 7:26
Intro (The Cave)
All we require, is to share the feast
all around the fire, we face our fears
our gods abide there, we draw them near
(The Tenderthals)
We love our young
we’re kind to the old
we bury our dead
as though sleeping
we know how to grieve
to love and be tender
we hunt
(The Hunt)
Instrumental
(The Feast)
Our signs are recessed in the caves
the chasm sheilds the sacred graves
with wind and earth
and then with fire
we bathe in radiance and light
The force and nature of these laws
we praise as being from our gods
Surya brings us sun warm rays
eclipse us soft into the night
-all we require is to share the feast
our gods abide there
we draw them near
3. Self – 3:49
I started by looking into myself
all I saw there was darkness
but it was real
I wondered as I looked into a mirror
thoughts that were there were formless
what do I feel?
I’m searching but never finding myself
suffering from confusion
wheel within wheel
What am I if I am nothing at all?
All that is done will vanish
What can be real?
Am I to blame for all that I am?
Why do I cast a shadow?
To whom do I kneel?
4. The Causeless Seed – 4:22
We can’t speak
No words can say what we feel
Round the fire our eyes reveal
all our fears
What can you trust when the world never stays the same
What will endure when the sunlight fades away?
Full moon set white robes to glow
Glowing bright
Prophets chanting
sacred seeds written down
but the cause of the causeless seed sings it back to me
(around in circles, around in circles)
the song that she sings she is raining it down on me
(around in circles, around in circles)
White robed scribes hold their quills so tight
casting seeds in darkness lost to the wind
sun comes around
the cause of the causeless seed
(around in circles, around in circles)
the sun comes around
the cause of the causeless seed
(around in circles, around in circles)
5. No Solid Ground – 6:48
It’s a lie I know
whispered to my ego
the closer I come
the further I am
I just can’t see all time to be
the place for me for all creation
no, no I’m going home
I hear it’s the place to be
I’m told right here
there’s nary a trace of me
I’m supposed to feel a naked universe
and when there is truth
I lose my self there
I’m going home
I can see a vast expanse
of cosmic time
an endless dance
celestial fire
There is no self
no solid ground
no solid ground
it takes me up
and wears me down
Fleeting forms and windy sounds
spin me round
around and round
when illusion takes its flight
every trick
is one of light
I found as I looked into a mirror
to my surprise I won’t walk away
there’s nothing here and nothing there
the music dies away with me
and life goes on
it seems to me life…
nothing to see or to learn
or to be
6. Perfect Weather – 5:59
Inside my ocean shell
waves were crashing very well
though down by a raging river is where I fell
and when you called my name
I knew I’d never be the same
’cause truth is perfect weather for a change
It’s perfect weather, for a change
(It’s perfect weather)
When the river’s dry
(no use in wondering why if mother earth will lift us to the sky)
Old questions never change
(and down in every age no answer’s shadows left on any page)
It’s perfect weather, for a change
(It’s perfect weather)
It’s perfect weather
It’s perfect weather for a change to love in this world
When the wind blows warm
(on every thunderstorm heats up the great gold tassle that crowns the corn)
Another age of earth
(plays out for all its worth)
another sacred moon is ripe for birth
It’s perfect weather, for a change
(It’s perfect weather)
It’s perfect weather
It’s perfect weather for a change to love in this world
It’s perfect weather
perfect weather
perfect weather for a change
to love
in this world
it’s perfect weather for a change
Perfect weather…
7. Mara – 5:46
(voices whisper- “You shall not surely die”)
Don’t listen, my son,
to the far off wind
(voices whisper- “You will become as God”)
’till that’s all that remains
(voices whisper- “Knowing good from evil”)
For whom will you follow
and where will he lead?
He who the far off wind has called by name
Mara comes
And then today
again I sold myself
at least a hundred times
closed and locked the door
Could inner peace ever be in reach?
Oh, leave me be a little wiser than before
I never claimed to pass inspection
I’m just a traveler after all
outside a door
I thought I could raise
just raise the price
the devils call
has seen my bluff
my temptation
must suffice
can I never pay
ever pay the price
lost in thought
no clear direction
no map to guide me to the door
the temple door
a double black rainbow falls
ever the wind begins to howl
lightning strikes
and thunder falls
the tempest calls
So I sit for meditation
and nothing comes from it at all
nothing at all
8. Common Ground – 4:22
Dreams of sage and prophet died when we could see the master plan
would you trade all of your knowledge for what he holds in hand?
9. TIVOY (The Immense Vastness of Yesterday) – 7:19
There’s a shadow of memory
where all my moments fade
like the wind in autumn leaves
or dew drops on the blade
In the twilight I search the sky
for all traces in stars that rise
but colors wane and fade to gray
in the immense vastness of yesterday
In the playground I used to run
and now beneath a setting sun
I follow a star beyond Bethlehem
and cleave the moon in twain
I shiver off my time-worn ways
in this extra-ordinary day
all things go and
come what may in
the immense vastness of yesterday
There’s a ripple in my sense of time
my thoughts skiffle in a silent rhyme
I’m under water in the distant now
still bowing to that sacred cow
Beneath the moon’s soft silver sheen
embraced in lusters of emerald green
I’m full of wonders that come my way from
the immense vastness of yesterday
10. The Warm Light of Day – 3:45
Most of our days
(the sun burning overhead)
were spent in the dark
(heat weighing down on my)
it was all just a phase
(dry bones lying in the sand)
making our mark
(Do I have a destiny?- What can this mean to me?)
no solid ground
(the empty land holds and answer)
all that I hear
(wind screaming in my ear)
a still serenade
(the silent music claims no dancer)
veiled in a hush
(fervent pleas lost in a whisper)
at the scene of a rhyme
down in the warm light of day
playing a part
(but it’s a losers game)
no curtain call
(stage lights are numbing cold)
fruit of the tree
(I must unlearn my name)
can’t lose control
(but what about… what about me?)
to be lost in time
down in the warm light of day
What’s happening here
(trading lead for gold)
down in the mind
(lost in the folds)
frozen in time
(between the head and feet)
near a black hole
(there’s no place to go
…
there’s no place to run
…
there’s no place to go)
we’ll make our way
to the warm light of-
the warm light of day

Water holds the secrets of all time
