The Lotus Eaters
Horses
See all the waves’ white horses
Wind in their hair
See all the wave’s white horses
Calling me to ocean
The waves’ white horses
Wind in their hair
The waves white horses
Calling me to
All that is wild
All that is free
All that is wild
All that is free
All that is wild
All that is free
Feel the wave’s white horses
Liberate me
Oh, I long to fly like a migrating bird
Oh I long to fly
Over the sea
Over the sea
Some day I will fly
Like a migrating bird
Far far away
On wings that are wide, to
All that is wild
All that is free
All that is wild
All that is free
All that is wild
All that is free
See the waves’ white horses
Dancing below me
Everywhere and Nowhere
I’m laying my head on the ground
I’m spiralling down like a leaf
The universe spinning around
A tangle of joy and of grief
There will come a time
When I will find a way
To say what I wanted to say
To liberate night from the day
And all this will just go away
All that I know I had wanted to show you
All that I feel I’d wanted to show you
I’m everywhere and nowhere
I’m dancing along to the night
A frenzied and wild exchange
A dangerous spark is alight
And willing inertia to change
Look into my eyes
And find below the pain
A fear that I cannot explain
Where all that was certain is strange
The only thing constant is change
All that I know I had wanted to show you
All that I feel I’d wanted to show you
I’m everywhere and nowhere
Penelope
So much to say
And what is truth, anyway?
I am wounded today
Like a flower that is fading
Fear unexplored
Is a knife
Is a sword
I am diving today
Like a swallow
All the ways of longing
All of the mythic heroines who line the sea
Counting the waves and scanning the horizon
Caught in a promise
Empty as the night is
Oh how they sing to me
Oh how they sing to me
Hope is sustained
But what is list, what is gained?
Am I dress for the role of the woman who is weaving?
Open I stand
Where the sea meets the sand
And I’m hoping today for tomorrow
All the ways of longing
All of the mythic heroines who line the sea
Counting the waves and scanning the horizon
Caught in a promise
Empty as the night is
Oh how they sing to me
Oh how they sing to me
My Heart is Like an Open Flower
My heart is like an open flower
That breathes its petals to the sun
My heart is like an open flower
That must endure what it’s begun
So frail are the stamens of the soul
And delicate the petals of the mind
My heart is like an open flower
That mourns the love it leaves behind
Strange Little Soul Bird
Visions that I’ve seen
Voices that I’ve heard
Love has brought me to this shore
Strange little soul bird
Strong as an eagle
Frail as a sparrow
How can love be made to walk
A path that is narrow
Choices tear me apart
Find the nail that’s driving deep within my heart
Whispering secrets
Finding the right word
Let me open to your song
Strange little soul bird
Deep in the wild wool
Strong flow the river
Sweet the solitary night
My soul birds deliver
Freedom calls like the sky
What will live and what within me is doomed to die?
Choices tear me apart
May the soul bird come and liberate my heart
The Lotus Eaters
La lune est pleine et dans le ciel
Venez manges les fleures de rêve
Le rêve est comme l’étoile de nuit
La nuit est comme les fleures de rêve
(The moon is full and in the sky
Come and eat the flowers of dream
The dream is like the star of night
The night is like the flower of dream)
La Femme De La Mer
Daughter of the beautiful ocean
I feel your wave arrive on my shore
Bearing gifts of tangled emotion
And feelings that I cannot ignore
Daughter of the beautiful ocean
Knowing all when all is unknown
Shifting line between dream and illusion
Like a wave dissolving the stone
Do I fear you?
Do I willingly drown
If I love you
Will your wave hold me down?
Daughter of the beautiful ocean
Water so seductively cruel
You have come like a siren, a spiral, a storm
And I dived like a fool
Wash me, wet me
Tangle me in the foam
Wound me, heal me
Strip me back to the bone
La femme de la mer
Tu es la femme de la mer
Circe
So you have freed the winds
That whip the wave of sullen ocean
Come to the woman with the snakes in her hair
I offer honeyed wine of Lethe
I offer a dark love
So you have sailed the seas
And seek the way to deeper water
Come to the woman with the snakes in her hair
I offer honeyed wine of Lethe
I offer Magic
Hecate
Gone are the leaves on the Hecate trees
Shed to the wind till her skeleton claws the sky
I am alone in a forest of memory
Dragging behind me the howl of the winter
Hecate
Hecate
Hecate
Calypso
Like it never was
Now my heart is bleeding
Like it never was
Now my heart is bleeding
More fiercely than it ever was
Now my heart is bleeding
Although the Earth is blooming
I feel my land is barren
And though I know each cave each tree each flower
On the island
The land feels harsh and hostile
A stranger in a strange place
And though I feel the wind move through my dress
I stand here naked
And though I feel the sun upon my skin
My skin is hollow
Like it never was
Now my heart is bleeding
I am the bone that’s left behind
After the feast is finished
I am the stranger left behind
Who once you loved and will love
The scent of flowers, of lilies
Etched in to forgotten memory
Will take you to the place
Where love had once embraced our blisses
Like it never was
Now my heart is bleeding
A boat sets sail upon the sea
And now my heart is bleeding
The Water
This time
So cruel
So beautiful
Becomes the wave
That unifies the sea
The ocean
Is one with the finite
Is one with the infinite?
Is one
A boat sets sail
Upon the water
To find the soul
That unifies the sea
The ocean
Divides what is unified
Unites the divided
I feel the water washing over the side
I feel the water washing over the side
I am captured riding out with the tide
Will I float or will I capsize?
This love, so cruel
So beautiful
I saw the sea
And thought to taste the salt
The water
Will drown what was born to it
And resurrect the naked
The rocks
My hands are bleeding
The Water
The sand that should be comforting
The shore that should be nurturing
Is fear
Is stone
Is pain
Come to the Lake
Andre, come to the lake
There you find me singing alone to you
By the water’s shore
Welcome the divine
You and I are united in time
Andre, come to the lake
There you will find
The mist made of morning
All the spiralling Earth
Now, this singular place
You and I are united in space
Andre, come to the lake
There you will find me singing alone to you
See what lies beneath
Now the water is clear
You and I , we have nothing to fear
The Raven Song
I saw three ravens yesterday
One stayed behind
Two flew away
Which one remained I cannot say
One stayed behind
Two flew away
Alone before the mysteries of time
I dived and found a creature of the sea
She stole upon my from behind
And swam away ahead of me
Descend to the Ocean
When I wanted to cry
You were waiting to save me
How often you saved me
By hauling me into the light
I was losing my way
And the stars were all fading
Sure as the sunrise
You tempted me into the day
Oh how I wish I could take back the nightmare
The hell I subjected you to
It’s not what I wanted
It’s not what I wanted to do
If I paint my emotions
Can I offer the canvas to you?
I will love you until
The stars that we navigate by
Descend to the ocean
Descend to the ocean and die
