=========
A special occasion
That comes every year
On your mind
As the event draws near
We do not like surprises
We do not like surprises
A predictable course
That does not deviate
Has worked for the others
Let's just replicate
We do not like surprises
We do not like surprises
We do not like surprises
So scared of
Sammy Davis Junior vision
In their faces
Like the bars of a prison
Have no plan
To rethink their position
In their minds
Then, there's no decision

Peels
=====
People drive away
Three shifts each day
Til late one night
It was the bright lights
See the peels on the ground
Thrown out, left behind
The black peels on the ground
The solid yellow line
Does crazy things to the mind
Bent metal broken glass cart, hit stays deer
Smacked off track, couldn't steer clear
See the peels on the ground
Thrown out, left behind
The black peels on the ground
All they left was the rind
See the peels on the ground
Thrown out, left behind
The solid yellow line
Does crazy things to the mind

Explain It To Me
============
Why do I resist
Getting out of bed?
I keep resetting the alarm instead
Sleep is always
The best escape
But in my dreams
I'm still awake - awake
Why do I resist
Walking out the door?
Home leaves me wanting more
A lot can happen once you leave
A lot more than we want to believe
Why do i fight sometimes
Just to breathe?
Would you please
Explain it to me?
Why do I resist
A helping hand?
I don't believe in my fellow man
We're headed downhill
Too fast to stop
Falling back down
From the top
Why do I fight sometimes
Just to breathe?
Why am I so blind
I can't see?
Can you do anything
To help me?
Won't you please
Explain it to me?

Intertwined
=========
Weave the waterlogged wood
Form the strong vessel
The design, intricate and good
To twist with another
To twist with another
Take the small strands of damp hair
Braids that twist and turn
Together, such a nice pair
To clasp o'er and fold
We know the rope is going to hold
No matter what the weight
It withstands the night and day
Heat and cold
To wind about something
Time and again
We return to each other
Find that we fit
Never to be replaced
With another
To twist with another

Perigee
======
Somehow empty
But dirty all the same
The bus stop stands there
Sitting alone in the rain
The city filled with air
And people to breathe it all in
There's not so much life here
As there once had been
Closer and closer
We elipse each other in time
The magnetism pulls us
Regardless of the words we say
Our own minds fool us
To think it's another way
Closer and closer
We elipse each other in time
A hollow shadow
That touches us all around
No one will be nearer
Yet never utter a sound
Closer and closer
We elipse each other in time
Closer and closer
We eclipse each other in time

The Crunch
==========
Salad and oatmeal
Wiped out, wound up
Time's out, wake up
I read a book
I write a page outside
In a gorcery store
On a couch
In a boat
Just as I'm about to
Grab the box
The ceiling opens up
I jumped
To a rock
It was awful green grass that day
The birds, the lizards take turns
Come on quick,
I can't be late
Come on quick,
I can't be late

============
She's never wrong
She knows with who
And how long
It's the strangest form
Of extra sensory perception
I've seen
No single detail
Escapes her attention
Like a Santa Claus for sex,
She knows everything
Perversions are clear
Whether she likes it or not
She's learned not to fear,
Like many things
She's taught herself
She's never wrong
She knows with whom
And how long
It's the strangest form
Of character assessment
I've seen
Something deeper
Than others can see
She could be treated
Like a fearsome alien being
if they knew

Lost Dog
========
Even when you
Were just brand new
Less than one year old
Didn't fit the mold
Hard to be judged
For unseen brains
Surrounded by people
On the train
Something about this body
Made them disregard
Whether or not
She was actually marred
But sweet
On the inside
The mutt
Keeps roaming
From street to street
Not even a chance
For a second glance
She walks through the crowd
The silence is loud
Ignoring the fact
She's being ignored
She's not interested
But she's not bored
It seems she's winning
A different race
If you catch a glimpse
Of the smile on her face
Sweet on the inside
The mutt keeps roaming
From street to street

Wide-Eyed Ypsilanti, Michigan
Formed in the beginning of 2001, Wide-Eyed is Tina Lambright and Patrick Pyne. Despite being a duo, they rotated instruments for recordings to make full, band-oriented songs of varying sounds and styles. Their music can be generally described as experimental pop, or psychedelic rock, but avoiding cliches of any genre. Serious, funny, abstract or direct, despite the dressing, enjoyment is the focus ... more
