Good House

By my hands or with fire

I’ll be cleaning black temples that I’d built in defense

My polishing shines

I find, I find, I find

Spent my time fearing age

And retreating from answers to the questions I’d asked

In each passing stage

Poked myself blind

I lost time

Oh, I lost minds

You might find that there’s eyes

You might find only your eyes

Well, retrain them to send

At first just pretend

But later for searching much further

Each trial leaves you open

Decide you’re light

Cause brother it’s time

You’ll always find life

Hold on, keep up

I’ll show you inside

In this good house for it’s light

I spend all my time

Here taste, good bread

I bake for my mind

Inside I fold

My well lived advice

It says when you feel tired

There’s more left inside

Slow down, breathe deep

If you cry in mourning revive

Lay down, be quiet

Is this how we pray?

My hands can show us the way

But feel how they shake

Too bright, but then too dim

You always find reasons you’re frightened

So frightened that you won’t go in

And reason may fight you, so even then

Don’t wait, feel shy

Come sit at your place

Cause you can

Your body rewired, you may feel strange

Breathe in without

Breathe out, you’re alright

Breathe in with all

Breathing out all that shame

No cowering fright

Keep building up waves

Replenish in flight

So I breathe my way down

And I breathe my way deeper

When I’ve grown I ascend

At sea, see my hands

They’re stretching much further and stronger

They’re holding my life to the fire

No tries

Fire builds fire

Shiva, come home

I’m ready to play

When we dance, great heights are required

I won't feel ashamed

Divine and spun right round

The center unwinds, you’re unfolding

Divine and spinning round

Your pleasure is binding

And held in trance

As I spin, I grow

Embracing decay

With each turn, delight comes alive

Loss slipping away

Breathe in without

Breathe out, you’re alright

Breathe in with all

Spit out all that rage

You're safe now, don’t fight

Your body’s engaged

Just flow and get right

Like following angels

You're following angels
