LYRICS:

Am I seeing double?

Am I withdrawn?

Depositing lyrics into a love song

A Spider weaving webs for a catch that won't come?

Am I pruning roses from a dead bush?

A soldier running late for the ambush?

Readying the deck for a storm thats long gone?

(Is it too late?)

It's never-ending, but never-the-less

I'm the first one to second my guess

And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember

And every step I take, got the devil to repay

I'll never make it out alive but I won't surrender

Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way

Like a Phoenix rising up from ash and ember

Am I reaching out for something that i can't grab?

Something infinitely splitting into two halves?

Is there something I forgot that I can't remember?

Am I swimming in a river that was man-made?

Demolishing a road that was just paved?

It's like trying to catch a june-bug in late December

Have I climbed the ladder to the last rung?

Am I simply gonna finish where I started from?

Is the future just a past that i'll never outrun?

And every step I take, got the devil to repay

I'll never make it out alive but I won't surrender

Had to take it day by day, had to feel a heartbreak

Like a Phoenix I was born from ash and ember

Saw Augustana live the other day and they were only an opener. They only got to play for about 15 minutes and then had to go. They were so good I'd rather them have hours at every concert cuz they're more than an opener!

I was fortunate to see Augustana play our annual city festival right when they got popular. What an amazing treat, and vocals that haunted me to this day. Talk about being in the right place at the right time :) Bands like this come along only very seldom.

Bodini’s last request written by Terrance Hill February 1, 2013 The dawn is breaking across the horizon of my heart, searching for the lightHow could you realize that I have been crying in the darkness alone, it’s folding in on me?How long do we have until the sun sets behind the tall forests of redwoods, we turn, and they’re gone… They say only one has conquered death on this planet my friend, don’t believe it, I‘ve been standing in front of you all along…I found a sparrow with a shattered wing, I carried him as long as I could as he flew into the infinite just as simply as the blink of an eye, it’s always been on my mind… how high that bird flew When I found you on my back doorstep, you may remember all the groceries went flying, I swear they had wings, golden and purple as all the apples fell to the ground…I’m running out of reasons to be here, so far across the sea, it’s difficult to explain these hieroglyphics written in the these red rocks, and on the wet sand where the tide rushes in…and it has retreated forever back into that vast sea… I can’t chop wood or carry water without feeling sorry for the monks who hang out here among these dreams intertwined with dying stars, and undiscovered galaxies that have been our playground…I believe nothing lasts forever, and forever is a question of balance a simple equation, so here’s to the scholars who’ve long tried to figure it all out, as I begin to understand it in the corner of your smile… Tell me who packed all of the parachutes, before we board this ship, bound for distant galaxies it’s all a hurried orchestra that plays another sonata to the wind, as we walk across the forever bridgesTurning to a recognition I recalled or conjured to defend my forecasts of fading into infinity Let’s allow the walls to crumble, leave the doors all wide open, and leave everything but the flutes behind… I’ve been saved by the music more than a time or two, writing my way back into your heart and cancelling all of our misfortunes on the doorway of the estate of the coming kingdomI called out your name one last time before I walked this well worn path back to the beginningI dreamed last night you were still lying here beside me and I could hear you breathing as I whispered one last prayer that you will be smiling in my direction when morning first rises…and the chanting and guitar players kick it all into high gear and we approach the fast lane with eyes wide open, and the wind in our hair singing to Bruce Hornsby and the Merrymakers playin’ “Dreamland” full blast on the Bose stereo, blowing downHighway 1…
