Mind At Large through the reducing valve

Your perfect ideals,
Will only be ideas,
If you keep from head down.
So look to the skies,
With your new eyes,
You've got to keep your head up,
You've got to keep you head.

Father told me that we all die,
Then he told me the preachers lie,
He told me,
That when I die,
Jesus flies with the angels up high.
Up high.

I can't believe you,
When you tell me to,
Close my eyes,
Child Don't cry,
Coz Everythings gonna be just fine.

So I can't sleep at night,
Coz I can't believe a pack of lies,
Coz there's no lake of fire that fries,
And there's no angels flying high.
Flying High.

I can't believe you,
When you tell me to,
Close my eyes,
Child Don't cry,
Coz Everythings gonna be just fine.

My mother said to me,
Oh my baby can't you see,
Jesus comes to those who wait,
Jesus will save you before it's too late,
It's too late.

I can't believe you,
When you tell me to,
Close my eyes,
Child Don't cry,
Coz Everythings gonna be just fine.

Oh Mother can't you see,
The church is empty and the seats are free,
Oh mother can't you see,
Those old lies don't wash with me,
Don't wash with me.

((Authors notes : - This is a song I've been working on. It sounds better when sand obviously. Also very depressing. It must be the atheist in me. Seeig as how theres a little atheist in al of us. Much like Santa.))

(( Authors note :- On a second read through I don't actually think this is really finished yet. mmm))

I sit in the voidness of the human condition,
Aware that in the end it is nothing,
And that it is good,
It is so good.

The planets and stars,
No matter how lovely they are,
Are nothing the end,
And it is good,
It is so good.

I can see the animals and Trees,
My molecules and me,
Are nothing in the end,
But it is good,
It is all so good.

Just to be here.

You are just a handful of molecules,
Atoms, Photons, Electrons it's true,
Only here for moment or two.

So now my friend,
Won't you sit down with me,
And oh now my friend,
There's Something i want you to see.

You are just a handful of molecules,
Deoxyribonucleic acid it's true,
And you and I,
Are cast in the wind in the end.

So now my friend,
Won't you sit down with me,
And oh now my friend,
It'll be alright in the end.

I'm wasting my time on you,
Wasting my time,
I'm wasting my brains on you,
Wasting my brains,
Firing neurons for you,
A billion neurons for you.

I'm wasting my life for you,
Wasting my life,
I'm breaking my heart for you,
Breaking my heart,
The beat of my heart for you,
Every beat of my heart.

And what else can I do?

Life is just a moment,
A tiny little moment so live it well,
Can we share a moment,
A tiny little moment of this life.

Can you spare a moment,
A tiny little moment of your time,
I'll show you a moment,
A tiny little moment in endless time.

My Head explodes,
In a Rainbow of clear light,
I am the sun and Moon,
I am the space between,
I am the grass beneath my feet,
I am the space between every cell,
I am life and death,
I am nothing of the sort,
I am nothing.

Kevin was a squirrel, he lived by himself, by a stream, on the edge of a great forest for kent called Maggies Bush, as forests are sometimes called, however unfortunate.

Kevin lived a simple life, he made herbal tea, hid nuts, brewed the occasional Nettle ale and brought the odd bag of dock leaves to smoke off a Stote called Ben of Glouster, why he was called Ben of Glouster always confused Kevin, as the stote he knew very well he came from London, it never seemed to matter really once Kevin had smoked some of the dock leaves.

As the years passed a family of Otters moved into the stream on the other side from kevin.

This pleased kevin.

As the weeks passed Kevin befriended the family and started to get to know them, they where a pleasent family, as far as Otter went anyway.

Then came the turning point.

Keving fell in love.

And then he hurled himself under a truck.

Which was quite a feet of determination because the nearest road was four miles away, which is a really long way for a squirrel, especially a depressed one.

Kevin did this for 2 reasons;

Firstly Kevin had falled in love with the With Dereks wife, Derek was the head of the otter family. Kevin had stewed and ached about this for months before he made his terrible decision. It had broken him.

But...

Secondly, and probably most importantly because she (Patrica) was an Otter.

Authers Note: Written as a first draft when I was 15 and reproduced as was. go figure. Oh and the speeling errors may be my fault because I can't find the spel check and can't be bothered to copy and paste to somewhere that does. To be honest it probably wouldn't have taken as long as typing this. Bhah!

If I didn't have to die,
I'd sit here for a thousand years,
Watch the grass grow taller,
Watch the flowers bloom,
And watch the river carve it's course.

If I didn't have to die,
I'd sit here for a milliom years,
Watch the buildings disappear,
Watch the roads vanish beneath the world,
And watch the human race fade to distant memory.

If I didn't have to die,
I'd sit here for a billion years,
Watch the sun fade,
Watch it become again,
And watch the earth scatter across the universe.

If I didn't have to die,
I'd sit here for eternity,
Happy,
Watching the endless becoming of nothingness.
