What Else?

Here you are boys, takin’ all your pills
And you wonder what kills?
Here you are girls, not eatin’ your fill
And you wonder what kills?
Here we are now, we’re staring at ourselves
And we wonder what else?
(chorus)
What’s so bad about dying?
What’s so sad about crying?
What is wrong with losing love?
I can’t say
Here you are boys, tryin to eat dollar bills
And you wonder what kills?
Here you are girls, you drink like you have gills
And you wonder what kills?
What’s so bad about dying?
What’s so sad about crying?
What is wrong with losing love?
I can’t say

The Stream
05:54
|

|
Flowing downwards from a mountain top
Seeking ever lower it won’t stop
Singing softly for the world to hear
Even though it’s quiet it is clear
So near
Growing gently in a secret field
Softer than arbutus when it’s peeled
Taking time now is just measuring
I can feel you now through everything
Just sing
Floating down on waves and tides of air
Falling gracefully like your long hair
Loud and violent like a waterfall
Taking what I want, I want it all
Draw a Line
(Falling gracefully like your long hair
Just because you feel it, it’s not there)

Glass Bead Game
05:13
|

|
Glowing sun, up above
Moaning city below
Icy stream, babbling brook
Always seeking the lowest level
Ever changing its dialogue, as though
Never playing the same rhythm twice
Cold mountain air
Not fit for animals
A true Castalian
Harmony veiling him
Writes symbols on a page
With the effervescent plays
A lonely game
A fine balance
An obsession with form
And through it all we are
Not alone, woah
You’re not alone, ooh
Transcend!
But a simple task
Was too much for him
Drown out the last
Bit of world in him
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Into the nearly-frozen lake
