Believer

My friend Sara's afraid of hope
She learned the hard way it's all foil and smoke
But she still gets a kick out of a dirty joke
I guess we all have a way of getting our soil soaked

At night I wonder to a deep silent sea
The pearl is awake and looking at me
What terror i have felt in this anonymity
To fold it up into some kind of singularity

Staring at the Mona Lisa Ursula

Don't you wanna drive around with me?
Listening to Hejira through a blown out freedom scheme
I'm not trying to recreate the wheel you see
I just wanna hitch your wagon onto me

That's the difference bеtween magic and mystery
Somewherе between a vocation and kitcheree
Somewhere between LA and Joshua Tree
I'm in a cafe buying tintures off Etsy

All my tricks and charms and amulets
Thumbing through the paper for my lost rabbit
The infinite drip of a backyard well
Drop up a cylinder and out it fell
I can tell I can tell I can tell I can tell
I'm closing in on it

What world is there besides this earthly cage?
What am I but organs disguised in grace and rage?
But the trees bear fruit so I'll be humble and graze
Glowing in the night, in the stillness, ablaze

Deeper and deeper and deeper
You might be lost but the song's it's own seeker
The notes have a finder but not a keeper
The melody is hope and the hope's a believer
And the hope's a believer
