Astronauts

Hey John, put your astronaut boots on, John.
Hey John, get your pistol-grip tool now and put it on.
They're sealing up the airlock, John!
Can you help me?
It won't be long until the oxygen’s gone.
(See them floating in the air).
There's a backpack in your hand.
(See them floating in the air).
You’re ready to land.
Now you’re ready to land.
Hey John, I’ve umbilical number one.
(See them floating in the air).
There’s no-one can get me.

Come To Me
04:38
|

Come little child,
Walk through the fire.
Come to me.
Come little darling,
Come through the dark.
Come through the air and come through the sky,
Come be with me.
Come through the earth and come through the light.
Rise from your sleep in your beds everywhere,
Call to your friends in their dreams if you dare to be with me.
You’re coming down the road.
You’re returning your soul.
Keep coming down the road.
You came from me.

Field Of Life
03:40
|

I’m blind, I’m dumb,
I'm dragonfly.
I'm weak, I creep,
I'm centipede.
I’m lost, I cry,
I’m butterfly.
I’m hurt, I’m dirt,
I’m earthworm.
I sleep, I weep,
I’m honey bee.
I’m sore, I’m poor,
I’m soldier ant.
I crawl, I fall,
I'm spider.
I'm wild, a child,
I'm ladybird.
I’m cold, I’m pale,
I’m snail.
I’m wild, I’m hurt,
I'm tired, I ache,
I’m grass snake.
Sweet honey bee,
In the field of life.

Knife
04:01
|
|||
And here I am, lay on your slab.
And I’m waiting for you to make your first jab.
My eyes are fast shut so your hands can cut down on me.
But remember I cannot see.
I cannot feel.
I cannot feel your knife.
And I know it could save my life.
Please save me.
Now I feel cold, my years have aged me.
But you’re near, and I can hear your breath breathing, healing.
And it contaminates me.
But it’s not me.
It's not me.
You switch on the life support machine, I'm glad of the changes.
I can feel the heat.
But it’s not me.
It’s not me.
Please save me.

Silence
03:53
|

I’d like to welcome the congregation.
How are you all?
Are you feeling trepidation for what we're about to do?
Keep one foot behind the other.
Hold on to your mother or your brother.
Just keep thinking of one and other.
So, are you all seated?
It's time to think of each other.
And of the deceased who's no longer with us, there’s so much to discover.
Hey, do you love me?
Do you miss me?
Can you feel me?
Do you grieve me?
So, is there anyone who has some words to say
As we commit the body?
Thank you all for being here today and being very godly.
Say hey, do you love me?
Can you feel me?
Do you miss me?
Redeem me.

Dances

Can I recreate myself again?
I’d pick Cinderellas from heroines and queens.
Can I recreate myself again?
And where do I look?
(Look deep inside).
And how can you hold my hand with no arm?
How can you move again with no leg?
(I’ll search far and wide).
How can you take a breath with no lung?
How can you move at all?
How can you see?
(But I remember us falling off the rocks).
So sleep, yeah sleep.
(Coz those rocks were in the sea).
How can you see my face with no eye?
And when I’ve looked at the trees?
(Go look at the trees)
And when I’ve looked at the trees?
How can you love again with no heart?
(Then open the box)
And when I’ve opened the box?
How can you breathe?
(Then you’ve opened the box)
How can you sing?

Bird Love

Listen.
Spit on my shoulder.
I hear you.
Are you a ghost or a sprite in the night?
I can feel your feet behind my feet.
Listen.

Adrenaline
05:25
|
|||
Adrenaline, I call on you to get me through.
When I say “Go", you can flow.
I’ll watch you go.
My adrenaline, like oxygen you go.
My friend.
