    This is a very strange track and not for those who can't handle things that are very strange. The words are strange. How they are present is strange. It's all very strange.. it also happens to be one of my favorites, so no apologies if you don't "get it." One of the reasons it's so weird is that it was recorded with the help of my three children, using samples of them saying things I'd cue'd them to say and then sliced up and dubbed over the vox track.

    Lyrics:

    it's been a lifetime
    of searching
    for someone like you
    searching for someone like me

    like an endless winter
    spent waiting only for spring
    my heart springs up at the sprouting starseeds
    breaking through the ice to the sunshine

    awakening
    (they were) starting to sing

    don't think about your debt load it's a head full of confusion
    and your student loans won't ever go away so don't let them ruin you
    your credit score is nothing more than numbers on computers
    and the truth of your true purpose is more beautiful than the words of poets
    these prison cells they've made of abstract concepts
    disappear in the presence of the present activation
    they can't contain our spirit like the wrapping on christmas presents
    I shook the package and now I know that it's exactly what I've wanted

    whatcha gonna do when the rest of the starseeds start to awaken?
    all these games we've been playing cease to be and reality is shaken
    want to be there living free from democracy
    where we elect the next dictator
    and then say don't blame me, i voted darth vader
    at the cusp of coming age and for all the ages to see
    I was here and I was conscious
    with open eyes, and a clear conscience
    and when it all goes down I'll be the first to escape these boundries
    with my ear to the ground,
    watching and waiting and dancing all around
