Hunting For Father: Thank You Energy

"Sure! Hi, yes, I would like to thank all those people who helped me in my 25 short, long lived life on earth on here, on here or over there, and it's all just a matter of time before the sunflower meets that!"

Alright, yeah,
Now, I'd like to thank you all for having such an effect
On the world in which I live
Now, you can call it a mess
If you want to
But you don't got to
Me, I prefer the connection
That I make with all of the things outside of me
That become reflections of myself
And what I've been called to learn for as long as I shall live.

'Til death do me apart from the ego
Filled up with that evil sin
Some say it makes a difference to think about what you consume
Other people just live their life as if we're already doomed
It's in my nature to replace all of those wars with love
But important with the fact that I wanna run
Run, run, run run run run run, but look, look,

Some criticize those for not acting like they should
Distracted by the judgment and attached to what they push
Now, you can fight against the beast or you can hug a willow tree
But either way, rain or shine, that pain will find some guilt to feed.

"There are more of course, but we won't go into that now."
(There are more of course)

It's filthy when it's polished and it's perfect when it's scarred
No wonder why the conflict we call monster never lost it's heart
When I stop and think about it, I'm already off the mark
Lost inside the space between myself and my idea of making art.

Making love, making friends, no doubt I make a difference
There's positive and negative effects of my decisions
And although my dreams are selfish, I hope you can relate
May my attempts at being honest resurrect the fact I'm fake.

Tie my pretty pink poodle to a post, I'll make a pledge
To never lose the open mindedness that I possess
And if I do, close down shop and leave, please
Tell the others it's an uphill battle with a trick up it's sleeve.

But given the current circumstances and present state of mind
I'll be damned and surprised if they can penetrate my spine beliefs
But if you happen to catch me preaching the so-called truth
Tempt me, call me a liar, gently, press me for some proof.

I'll be more than happy to construct a new safe escape
My answer will most likely end in, "all energy changes shape."

"There are more of course, but we won't go into that now."
(There are more of course but we won't go into that now.)

So whether volunteering time at the local nursing home
Or changing someone's flat on the side of the road
It's always up to me and it's always in my control
Whether or not to serve those around me, you know?

And hopefully the times when I do it's rooted out of joy
And not just an obligation that feels impossible to avoid
So I'm happy when I'm here to help and I'm sorry when I'm not
But changing someone else's life is such a complicated thought.

"They dance along the waters top and try to make friends with the heads that bob above the water."
