Zeffer Lyrics
Album 1
Until We’re Done
Dust in the wind, ash in the air
Blood in the mud
To wake from the dream, just be there
Upset by your love
We all know, what makes the soil so rich
Is it the bitterness, or is it just you’re shit
It won’t be done
No, it won’t be done
It won’t be over, until we’re done
Head to the light, given the choice
If you’re lost
Based upon your radiant bliss
It’s broken and dark
We all know, what makes the soil so rich
Is it the bitterness, or is it just you’re shit
It won’t be done
No, it won’t be done
It won’t be over, until we’re done
We all know, what makes the soil so rich
Is it the bitterness, or is it just you’re shit
It won’t be done
No, it won’t be done
It won’t be over, until we’re done
One Last Midnight
You're on your feet, marching in the street
You cry for justice, you scream for vengeance
But you should be pleading for mercy
You should fall to your knees and pray
Pray that you are set free to see
You're just a kettle, and pot lives matter
You're not special or entitled or deserving of more
You're just another stone in the cobbled road
Full of gravity, new opportunity
The garden glistens, in the moonlight
Delusion more beautiful, enjoy the petals before they fall
Pray that you are set free to see
You're just a kettle, and pot lives matter
You're not special or entitled or deserving of more
You're just another stone in the cobbled road
You horde for yourself, cram it in the cracks
I pray that you see in time, that your gold is only grime
All you're growing is moss, which will elevate you just enough
That you become a stumbling block, stumbling toes
The more you elevate yourself, the more you are pushed down
Brought back down to level with the other stones.
The wheel of time keeps us all in our place
It weaves us where it will
The stream flows down the mountain
Widens to a river and feeds the ocean
Some fool fish hide behind the rocks
They fear where the current will take them
Pray that you are set free to see
You're just a kettle, and pot lives matter
You're not special or entitled or deserving of more
You're just another stone in the cobbled road
Pray that you are set free to see
You're just a kettle, and pot lives matter
You're not special or entitled or deserving of more
You're just another stone in the cobbled road
Taken Away
I saw you lyin’ on your belly like a lizard in the sun
I saw you dancin’ in the rain under the veiled moon
You’re right on top of it
You're just not seeing it
The knowledge of what one has, of what one is
Sometimes I feel like a balloon
One stuck with a pin
And left lying on the floor, slowly wheezing
You’re right on top of it
You're just not seeing it
The knowledge of what one has, of what one is
You’re right on top of it
Can never be taken away
You’re right on top of it
You're just not seeing it
The knowledge of what one has, of what one is
You’re right on top of it
You're just not seeing it
The knowledge of what one has
Can never be taken away
Big Blue Sea
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; and we’ll see what we see at sea
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; and we’ll see what we see this season
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; our Big Blue Sea
There’s our siren, a mermaid against the waves
With a story coming in, there’s but a ray of Son
Trapped on her rock of soul survival
As though she’s forgotten how to swim
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; and we’ll see what we see at sea
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; and we’ll see what we see this season
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; our Big Blue Sea
Or is she just bathing in the warm glow
Of that single spot of light ray
A break in the thunderous turmoil
Separating her from brilliance above
Her hull cuts deep and her swath is wide
Regal and majestic
Full sail catching as much wind
As her three masts can handle
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; and we’ll see what we see at sea
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; and we’ll see what we see this season
Let’s go sailing on our Big Blue Sea; our Big Blue Sea
There’s our narwhal, struggling so hard to stay in pace
With the waves, but those waves are
Just the wake of a hard lived life
Let the waves carry you at least
How can the little ones, keep up with wake of the great
Mother ship unless it carries, them along
Propelling them faster
Than they could ever swim on their own
Go
I don’t gotta, tell ya what ya wanna hear just ‘cause your insecure
I don’t wanna, feed upon your drama, that will make me crazy some more
You keep saying you’ll try, I think that might be a lie
Some things never change, especially from the deranged
Well my head is splitting in two, ‘cause I’m so so over you
It’s been grating on my nerves, but I’ll tell you what really hurts, is that
Not one minute, go ahead and spin it, just the way you like to do
Feed my kitty, I’ll be sittin’ pretty, teaching you a thing or two
You keep asking me why, and I keep sayin’ goodbye
May I make an exchange, especially at close range
Well my head is splitting in two, ‘cause I’m so so tired of you
It’s been grating on my nerves, but I’ll tell you what really hurts, is that
I don’t gotta, tell ya what ya wanna hear just ‘cause your insecure
I don’t wanna, feed upon your drama, that will make me crazy some more
Well my heart is splitting in two, ‘cause I try to get over you
You’ve been pulling on my shirt, but you’re gonna get hurt
Go away, turn away; turn away, go, go, go; go, go, go
You keep saying you’ll try, but I know that is a lie
Some things never change, especially from the deranged
Well my head is splitting in two, ‘cause I’m so so over you
It’s been grating on my nerves, but I’ll tell you what really hurts, is that
Not one minute, go ahead and spin it, just the way you like to do
Feed my kitty, I’ll be sittin’ pretty, teaching you a thing or two
I don’t gotta, tell ya what ya wanna hear just ‘cause your insecure
I don’t wanna, feed upon your drama, that will make me crazy some more
Not one minute, go ahead and spin it, just the way you like to do
Feed my kitty, I’ll be sittin’ pretty, teaching you a thing or two
I don’t gotta, tell ya what ya wanna hear just ‘cause your insecure
I don’t wanna, feed upon your drama, that will make me crazy some more
The Two Become One
The one becomes two
Then the two become one
Without love; we just spin on our axis
The knot is tied, the bell is rung
The line is crossed, the line in the sands of time
Don’t draw lines, not in the sand
Maybe in the sky, certainly in the water
The one becomes two
Then the two become one
Without love; we just spin on our axis
Twists and turns, winds of change
One person or kid, one sibling at a time
The light’s not made, by what we do
Rather by what we’ve done
One family at a time
The one becomes two
Then the two become one
Without love; we just spin on our axis
The one becomes two
Then the two become one
A new one, so that makes three in love
Our love has changed the way I walk
Where I choose to walk
But it’s brought me close to you
The one becomes two
Then the two become one
Without love; we just spin on our axis
The wonderous light, between the lines
Truth between our lines; a ribbon in the heavens
Breanna and Seth, your adventure is set
The two become one
Have fun storming the castle
The Owl and the Pimpernel
What it’s like to be free, of the taint of her humanity
To remove the hood that kept her from seeing
Ships on a solid sea, peering so intently
The light it hides her shadow in silhouette
The pressure lies upon her
The Owl and the Pimpernel
She lays her head
On a talcum dusted pillow, her crown no longer on her head
She lays her head
Into shadows
As the fountain splashes colors on the aroma of a rose
Into shadows
What it’s like to be free, of the taint of her humanity
To remove the hood that kept her from seeing
Ships on a solid sea, peering so intently
The light it hides her shadow in silhouette
The pressure lies upon her
The Owl and the Pimpernel
She lays her head
On a talcum dusted pillow, her crown no longer on her head
She lays her head
Into shadows
As the fountain splashes colors on the aroma of a rose
Into shadows, into shadows
What it’s like to be free, of the taint of her humanity
To remove the hood that kept her from seeing
Ships on a solid sea, peering so intently
The light it hides her shadow in silhouette
The Pressure, lies upon her
The Owl and the Pimpernel
The Pressure, lies upon her
The Owl and the Pimpernel
Wake
I am shopping in a candy store just made for me
Happy as I eat my ice cream smiling in my sleep
I am flying up to heaven it’s a pretty scene
Back I come down onto earth and land upon my feet
Sinking, I’m falling
Blinded, I’m crawling
Heavy, I’m dying
You’re lying, I’m crying
Back into the air I tarry, floating on a cloud
Slumbering is really nice, I like it very much
Time to plunge into the ocean I can hold my breath
Soon I find I breathe in water just like all the fish
Screaming, I’m calling
Frightened, I’m bawling
Breathless, choking
Slowly, corroding
Dancing on my fancy feet I twirl upon the ice
Gently slipping all around as if I’m on a slide
See my face in a reflection, looking towards the skies
Staring back at me is me, but I don’t have my eyes
Sinking, I’m falling
Blinded, I’m crawling
Heavy, I’m dying
You’re lying, I’m crying
I’m Screaming, I’m calling
I’m frightened, I’m bawling
I’m breathless, I’m choking
You’re slowly, corroding
Carpe Omnia
He looks her way; it’s the only way for him
A path encircled; by the brush of a pen
All sounds fade away; just them for today
Seize all you can, you’ll never love like this again
Press while you stand, and use my guiding hand
Touch me, sense me, hold me ‘til the end
She knows no other; she sings no other song
Held by his temptation; hungry for his charm
Seize all you can, you’ll never love like this again
Press while you stand, and use my guiding hand
Touch me, sense me, hold me ‘til the end
They lie entangled; free from the noise
No more fear abounds them; no more life alone
Touch me, sense me, hold me ‘til the end
No more fear abounds them; no more life alone
Whip and a Gun
She grew up quick; unspent potential
Gypsy pure and through
Heart is misconstrued, she’s coming for you
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Enemy knights at the door
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
They bring their swords and armor
Future of love; bending to bow down
Tensing her strong jaw
Showing them their flaw, uncovering the law
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Enemy knights at the door
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
They bring their swords and armor
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Gypsy pure and through
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Aiming straight at you
Sometimes it’s only a dream, that takes her to that place
A place where people are kind, a kind of fallen trait
Where traitors cease to exist, and end up in the ground
Ground down to nothing but dust, that she just blows around
Her lash is long; to punish mortals
Snap a stray into line
Give sight to the blind, it’s only a matter of time
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Enemy knights at the door
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
They bring their swords and armor
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Gypsy pure and through
Whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun, whip and a gun
Aiming straight at you
Skypark Gypsy
A short hour of slumber, she puts on her face
She waits for the show
She makes herself glow
Every song a new voice and story to tell
Every night a new choice and ghost to dispell - git on up, rise on up
She hums a new number, then tests it out loud
Seeing spirits overhead
She speaks for the dead
Every song a new voice and story to tell
Every night a new choice and ghost to dispell - git on up, rise on up
Alive in the hearts of men, she pays tribute
Heart beats on her drum
Ghost fingers start to strum
Feeling high with Skypark Gypsy
Every song a new voice and story to tell
Wisdom of ages and musical sages do dwell
Every night a new choice and ghost to dispell - git on up, rise on up
My World
My body burns, negatives up to 80
Eyelashes freeze, can’t seem to close my vision
They say just put a blanket on, but that doesn’t keep me warm
That cold place, I can’t forget the frost
The world, the world
He gives me the world on a silver platter
But the shapes are different so it doesn’t really matter
My world, my world
Triangles and ovals around
Circles and squares just bring me down
Your eyes are ash, what happened to, to the sparkles
I found them dancing on the surface of the sea beside the sun
You looked at me and saw warmth
But I wanted you to see light
I am the sun, and I am the moon
The world, the world
He gives me the world on a silver platter
But the shapes are different so it doesn’t really matter
My world, my world
Triangles and ovals around, circles and squares just bring me down
Memories, stick to me
Like a long rusty nail thrusted in to my temple
Body pours, onto the floor
So full of I remember whens, falling apart and spasming
Puddle brain, down the drain
It makes its way through the cracks
Heart is a mop and it don’t do jack
Smearing mess, spreading wet
My thoughts are leaking all over the floor
Everyone steps and spreads it more
How would I feel, cradled by the warmest wave
I wouldn’t need to grimace at the brightness of the sun
He would have eyes that would lock on mine, and I would lay there caressed
I wouldn’t drown, and I would not choke
The world, the world
He gives me the world on a silver platter
but the shapes are different so it doesn’t really matter
My world, my world
Triangles and ovals around, circles and squares just bring me down
My world, my world
Always get sick in February, at least I’m out of January
My world, my world
They tell her to sing about the pain, a beautiful song to celebrate
Hunted
All along the Tombigbee River
they lie in wait
Silent as a stone while they watch all the monsters
emerge from the lake
Curved and pointed blades of teeth
claws they shine like knives
Life or death, the chance to survive, fight or flight
Who is killing who
Hunter, prey or fool
Will you win or lose
All along the Tombigbee River
they lie in fear
Silent as a stone while the mammoth approaches
lingers near
It stops and looks up to the stars
breathes in the night
Life or death, the chance to survive
fight or flight
Who is killing who
Hunter, prey or fool
Will you win or lose
Who is killing who
It’s no easy feat to compete
Standing at 15 feet tall
I said it’s no easy feat to compete
Fighting against a wall
Who is slaying, who is breaking who
No escaping, penetrating you
Keep your head down low
If you want to keep it around
I said you better keep your head down low
If you want to stay safe and sound
Who is slaying, who is breaking who
No escaping, penetrating you
All along the Tombigbee River
they lie in wait
Silent as a stone while they watch all the monsters
emerge from the lake
Curved and pointed blades of teeth
claws they shine like knives
Life or death, the chance to survive, fight or flight
Who is killing who
Hunter, prey or fool
Will you win or lose
Who is killing, who is killing, who is killing who
Street Corner
You were standing at the corner on the phone
and I was looking down as you were talking to me
Breaking up this fine connection
Resurrecting past afflictions
I was sitting on the bed and what I read
With what you said you were down with being tied to one thing
Breaking up this love we had
What became of Sir Galahad
I remember when your kisses were oblivious
and you were down on being so alone
But that was your deception
Compromising my discretion
You had told me you were searching for a merging
of the souls that were down to earth and so alive
as we walked onto my Moon
Left me breathless in my room
There was no Knight here
although the promises were made
She was left with broken dreams
from a traitor who betrayed
Exchanged her golden Visions
for his Ballroom masquerades
Playing Charades with a blindfolded Maiden
What to do what to do what to do
this ships been tossed and turned by your monsoon
What to say what a day what a messed up way
Where do I go now
where do I go from here
My heart is broken and you're not here
I was thinking that you're winking left me sinking
feeling sick and down with all your sweet nothings
locked in someone else's ear
praying on those virgin tears
She is wide-eyed and like me such a dream
would save her falling down while you swept her up
giving her false expectations
till you meet your next sensation
There is no Knight here although the promises were made
She'll be left with broken dreams from a traitor who betrays
Exchange her golden Visions for his Ballroom masquerades
Playing Charades with a blindfolded Maiden
The Way You Used to do
We used to meet at noon for lunch
You’d eat mine and I would eat yours
We’d take a drive down to the beach
Look out at the sea and dream to sail
I’m not really sure when the dreaming became dull
I can’t remember when it turned out null and void
I want to feel again, your touch your skin
Look at me the way you used to do
I want to see again, your smile, genuine
Look at me the way you used to do
We liked dramatic stories told
Wide eyed worked up we would beg for more
Conversations became few
Small talk lingered in, hello how are you
I’m not really sure when the interest went away
I can’t remember when we started looking away
I want to feel again, your touch your skin
Look at me the way you used to do
I want to see again, your smile, genuine
Look at me the way you used to do
Do you ever
think about the time we
never thought about the world
because we had each other
In the morning
do you wake and
miss the kiss you used to get and
wonder if it’s too late
Well I do
Album 2
Come Into My Fray
Come into my fray
We can go walkin’
Do some shit talkin’
Some cyber-stalkin’
Come into my fray
Play the piano
Drink macchiato
We can ponder the darkness and light and the
day and the night and the black and the white, uh huh
Speculate on the ups and the downs and the
winners and clowns and the sinners with crowns, uh huh
Come into my fray
We can go giggin’
A lotta swiggin’
Do fancy jiggin’
Come into my fray
We’ll go bar hoppin’
Do some eavesdroppin’
When you see me crying
Girl there’s no denying
Things are terrifying
Pretty petrifying
I don’t wanna break down
Make a mess and somehow
Try to clean it up but
End up on the rebound
You can join my
Tangled
Battle
When you see me fighting
Petulant reciting
Maybe uninviting
There’s a silver lining
Come into my story
Elegant and gory
We can dance together
In our dirty sweatshirts
Beautiful
Disorder
Disorder
Disorder
Come into my fray
We can go singin’
A little swingin’
Copius grinnin’
Come into my fray
We’ll do some laughin’
Some photographin’
We can ponder the darkness and light and the
day and the night and the black and the white, uh huh
Speculate on the ups and the downs and the
winners and clowns and the sinners with crowns, uh huh
Come into my fray
No body blockin’
No fire walkin’
Only sweet talkin’
Come into my fray
Play the piano
Drink macchiato
Eat some risotto
Come into my fray
We’ll do some laughin’
Some photographin’
Maybe trespassin’
Come into my fray
She’s a Lie
Crimson lips she’ll lay upon you
Whisper words, enticing platitudes
Her touch is ecstasy
Make believe in your reverie
Heed the signs of luscious servitude
Oh, she’s a lie - Wings of the night
Perfect legs and hips adorn you
Subtle smile and arms to come into
Her kiss a fantasy
Make believe in your sanity
Heed these words of warning certitude
Oh, she’s a lie - Wings open wide
Stand up, turn around and walk away
Get out, out of her shadow play
Temptress, she’ll take your life away
Get out, out of her dark decay
Oh, she’s a lie - Wings to invite
Look all around her and what do you see
Beauty captivating so deceptively
Oh, she’s a lie - Wings of delight
Star Gaze
It’s gray
The clouds right above are
Moving
Across the open sky and
You say
You love the rain for me and you
Hey babe
Let’s get away from here and
Star gaze
We’ll catch a glimpse of heaven
Always
Together spending time with you
Kismet
Cosmos
We’re here, coast to coast
Look there
The swirling mists of timeless
Elsewhere
To help us gain our vision
Somewhere
Among the shore with me and you
Hold me
So closely
And I’ll be
Sweet and true
Hey babe
Let’s get away from here and
Star gaze
We’ll catch a glimpse of heaven
Always
Together spending time with you
Kismet
Cosmos
We’re here, coast to coast
Look there
The swirling mists of timeless
Elsewhere
To help us gain our vision
Somewhere
Among the shore with me and you
Hold me
So closely
And I’ll be
Sweet and true
Hey babe
Let’s get away from here and
Star gaze
We’ll catch a glimpse of heaven
Always
Together spending time with you
It’s gray
The clouds right above are
Moving
Across the open sky and
You say
You love the rain for me and you
Kismet
Cosmos
We’re here, coast to coast
Hey babe
Let’s get away from here and

We’ll catch a glimpse of heaven
Always
Together spending time with you
Blue By You
It didn't take him long to realize
She had more than love within her eyes
Plans for him he couldn't know
Storms on the horizon, reaping what she sows
He say's
I know what you are saying is true
But convincing me is kinda like
Trying to pull my feet out of the mud
that grips my feet so tight
Holding me
Can't break free
Blue by you
Early on, she hooked him good
Love and relations, so misunderstood
Sucking him in deeper
Sinking slowly
He say's
I know what you are saying is true
But convincing me is kinda like
Trying to pull my feet out of the mud
that grips my feet so tight
Holding me
Can't break free
Blue by you
Cutting ties, one thread at a time
Sneaking off to quietly hide
Let me loose
I want to choose
How many clues
You’re really giving me the blues
No such luck she held him at bay
Leaving his exodus for another day
Looking though the binding bars
Trapped by passion
Sweet Paragon
Stop holding on
Let fate be done
The hourglass of life
It’s running out of time
Just carry on
Thy will be done
The icing on your cake
The road for you to take
You’ve seen this scene before
Walking in the valley of death
So, you cry, and you lie
On your bed full of roses
Slow moldering
Try anything
To keep yourself alive
Letting sole survive
Melody
Set you free
Harmony
Sweet paragon
Setting up a table for two
It won’t be long
Biding all your time for anew
Then you walk away, and you never look back
Find fireflies
To light your life
The shimmer of a star
No matter where you are
You’ve seen this scene before
Walking in the valley of death
So, you cry, and you lie
On your bed full of roses
Tread fruitfully
Spread truthfully
The story of a man
Who came to love again
So stop holding on
Let fate be done
The hourglass of life
It’s running out of time
Melody
Set you free
Harmony
Sweet paragon
Setting up a table for two
It won’t be long
Biding all your time for anew
Then you walk away, and you never look back
Falling Down
Always dreaming nightmares
Killing 'cause I'm so scared
Jumping out of windows
Diving down a hill
Breathing under water
Hiding from the cold war
Upon the surface
Melting underneath the sheets sticking to my skin
Spinning sightless mind of mine
Only knowing black
Shackled to a city bus
Making stops and spots I see
Over and over again
Falling down
I'm losing my connection
Falling down
I need some peace and comfort from the son
Falling down
Awake to face reality
Distant from normality
Another so-called day for me to find my way
And what is that supposed to mean
Confusion seems to do me in
Decision battles in my brain
Working takes the bigger slice of my pie of life
People test my patience
Drivers make me crazy
Accusations bear repeat repeating
Falling down
I'm losing my connection
Falling down
I need some peace and comfort from the son
Falling down
Blinded and lethargic
Belly feeling so sick
Stealing from my pockets
Stealing from my kids
Stuck inside a big maze
Lost in thick and gray haze
Bumping into bushes
Hiding in a hole
Picking pieces for a price, settling on a knife
Thumbing through the pages of
The story of my life
Coming up with fancy words
Rhyming never seems to hurt
Over and over again
Falling down
I'm losing my connection
Falling down
I need some peace and comfort from the son
Falling down
