THE COMATOSE
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
Boom!
They come in waves
Like giant, angry bumblebees, dancing on top of the hive
We could've strayed
But we are ancient superheroes, ready for a funny fistfight
If we run this way
That direction, she goes up and down and flips us on our side
I miss honey and raw cake
So let's try to hike the ball filled with promises and insight
CHORUS:
It's a joke played on the comatose
Played on the comatose
Counting toes in a row
It's a joke played on the comatose
Played on the comatose
Down the rabbit hole, we go
It happened the day
When you sang the symphonies of wonder and ability
Jungles far away
Full of concrete and beans; the deserted, she dreams of the sea
Like you always say:
"When in doubt, push harder; when you push harder, doubt is unseen"
I will not pray
No gods can give us what we can achieve from recognising our sovereignty
REFRAIN:
Too bad you don't think it's funny
So sad you're gonna die here, love
Just like these bodies on the floor
Too bad you never had a chance
So sad you just don't understand
That your life isn't yours anymore
CHANT:
(We don't break like glass, but we sting like fire
When we allow ourselves to go higher
The grand awakening is summoning you
What will you do when your door's unscrewed? . . . x2)
Going higher
Down the rabbit hole, we go
CHORUS & REFRAIN

SOME KINDA TREASURE
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
I've been searching for some kinda treasure
Something to finally get me outta here
I've been searching for new roads to pleasure
Somewhere to finally drive out all the fear
I've been bathing in some dirty water
Filled with broken dreams and promises
I've been searching for some kinda treasure
To help me better get a handle on this
CHORUS:
Hindering
The mercury is rising
Harbinger
Of a new day on the horizon
Floundering
A path that wiggles; I am aimless
Suntanning
Amongst the brainless and the nameless
Wondering:
"What have I done to deserve it?
Ah, what have I done to deserve this?
I've been searching for some kinda treasure
Something to finally point the best route
I've been searching for new temples to measure
But I can hardly seem to suss them out
I've been hanging with some angry demons
Of broken bones and lack of spiritus
I've been searching for some kinda treasure
To help me better prepare for all this
CHORUS
Staring in the black deep, I'm afraid I won't be missed
Searching for a treasure to help me escape this
Staring in the black deep, I'm afraid I won't be missed
Searching for a treasure to help me escape this

hohum
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
I remove the scarf and set it on the nightstand
Beside the keys you left here yesterday
All the leopard print and china won't resolve, no
The horrid feelings pushing on my weight
Glow gone
Feeling so downtrodden
hohum
I remove my heart and set it on the nightstand
Adjacent to your note of yesterday:
"I refuse to be the clueless navigator"
So spectator's the only way you'd stay
Glow gone
Feeling so downtrodden
hohum
Break a little life wide open and never feel the guilt
Tear down the walls around me that you once built
Break a little life wide open, though you deny you did
Tear down the walls around me you built
Glow gone
Feeling so downtrodden
hohum
26 years of my life, now wasted
Glow gone
Feeling so downtrodden
hohum
No matter what I do, I'll never be able to change it
REFRAIN:
(It wouldn't've worked out
Even if we gave it one more chance
But I'm sad of our ending now
Even though my legs are tired from our dance . . . x2)

SIGOURNEY DREAMWEAVER
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
She's a shickadee dancer
And she'll climb all your answers
Like a paper-born baby
Sweat tide on the dark seas
In the yellow completely
Lives a woman named Sadie
She's a shickadee dancer
Aye, boy! You happen to glance her?
I owe everything to you
I do
And I will leave all I have for you, mmm
CHORUS:
From the fullness of your heart to the world of your head
There is nothing that I won't understand
When it comes to the life and the wonderous delight of you
(And to be conquered by you)
From the tip of your nose to your toes in the air
There is nothing that I want to compare
When it comes to the bright, shiny, perfect, and the teeny-tiny of you
(And to be conquered by you)
REFRAIN:
Ooh, it's gonna come from the left
Ooh, it's gonna come from the right
Ooh, it's coming from up ahead
Solo
You will never, ever be
Never, ever be
Solo
You will never, ever be
Never, ever be solo
CHORUS
REFRAIN x 2
(And to be conquered by you)
I owe everything to you
I do
And I will leave all I have for you, mmm

DIVE
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
It wasn't as I believed
So quickly, was my defeat
Now I sing in soliloquoys
I'm gonna fight 'til it bleeds
It wasn't as I believed
Take a chance and dive
Take a chance and dive
Crashing, pulsing, earthing, coursing
I'm gonna thrive; I'll survive
Do or die, gotta dive
Smashing, folding, birthing, sourcing
I'm gonna thrive; I'll survive
Do or die, gotta dive
Take a chance and dive

CARVE A HOLE
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
See my heart, scan my heart, rescue my heart up off the floor
I'm gonna love you so intense, we haven't been loved before
Steal my heart, seal my heart, carry me in your heart, for sure
I'll take away the pain of all the world and what we abhor
CHORUS:
What you're dreaming when you wake up
I'm gonna wash over you with healing thoroughly true
Where you're leaning when you're shaken up
We're gonna build you anew and carve a hole right through
Carve a hole right through
Carve a hole right through
No ideas, got no plans; our life's created through our hands
Gonna surpass together all conditioning and programs
Find my heart in your heart, intertwined and softly to real
We'll exorcise the trauma for some divinity to feel
CHORUS
Carve a hole right through
Find my heart in your heart

SOLO
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
She sees the world only in black and white
If you are wrong, then you're never right
Doesn't start her day with a song and a smile
Believes that nothing she does could be worthwhile
But there is something higher
Higher than your obsession with things
(Cell phones, junk food, and masturbation)
Spirit will never retire
Though it sometimes has to wait in the wings
(Alone won't do 'cause it's disinformation)
CHORUS:
'Cause you see, you will never, ever be
Never, ever be solo
To the illusion, become wise
Honey, you will never, ever be
Never, ever be solo
Someday, we'll all be open eyes
He carries leather and a well-pressed suit
The latest gadgets, but the tightest shoes
Doesn't start his day with gratitude or thanks
Believes that all those numbers will keep him safe
But there is something bigger
Bigger than your ego and its demands
(Higher pay, flash car, and your proprieties)
Spirit forever figures
Though it sometimes has to hold out its hands
(Dark deals - by far - AREN'T OPPORTUNITIES)
CHORUS
And now, I've learned there's a power in me
So strong and longing to be free
So I'll unleash the beauty and let it be

QUINTUPLE C
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
Put on your thinking caps for the night
We're gonna take us some algorithms
From no one to number nine
We're gonna hang drywall, execute sick measurement
CHORUS:
The conspiratorial consciousness co-creation committee
The conspiratorial consciousness co-creation committee
REFRAIN:
(I'm on a snowy sugar mountain
Covered in frost in the month of May
I bring the oil to the Mother's surface
And the everyman on his knees to pray . . . x 2)
CHORUS
Put on your startled face for a while
I have something to say; I don't think you'll like it
From someone to the defiled
We're gonna bleed crystals, make it our new medicine
REFRAIN
CHORUS
Put on your startled face for a while

DOUBLE SWEET
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
The illusion's got me by the crosshairs
And I can't think, can't drink, can't sink anything
The illusion's got me by the crosshairs
And I can't sleep, can't eat, can't dream of anything
CHORUS:
Obligatory chorus
Teaching all the birds how to tweet
Sweet sweet! Oh, double sweet sweet!
Sweet sweet! Oh, double sweet sweet!
The illusion's got me by the crosshairs
And I can't dance, can't sit, can't stand anything
The illusion's got me by the crosshairs
And I can't speak, can't read, can't need anything
CHORUS x 2
I'm stuck on a faerytale ride
Where the inside becomes the outside
I'm stuck on a faerytale ride
And my horse is going faster, then slower, then faster
I'm stuck on a faerytale ride
And I know it's meant to be disaster
CHANT:
(When the time is right, when the cardinals fly
I'm gonna be fine, I'm gonna be sky
When the people notice that the birds have gone
I'm gonna be long on the road to song . . . x2)
Thugs? Crews! Lies? News!
I'm looking for truth to lift blues
And seeing my first eye
CHORUS
CHORUS II:
Obligatory chorus
Teaching all the world not to know
No-no, oh double no-no
When did it become so ugly to grow?!
CHANT

THE SHEEP & THE PHOENIX

Pulling wool over your eyes . . . x3
Not willing to compromise
No interest in selling you lies
Gonna tell the truth until I die, die, die, die!
You say what I tell you, "So?"
Is something you already know
But if that's true, why are you standing aside, side, side, side?
CHORUS:
Please, don't complicate; reality, this ain't
You open up, and I hear, "Bleat! Bleat! Bleat! Bleat!"
Please, don't procreate 'cause you will seal their fate
To become programmed little sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep
Not willing to be the same
And be your example of "sane"
Gonna fight for something 'til the water runs dry
(Do you believe that your masters will have
All the kindness to grant you your liberty?! . . . x2)
Take a risk, take a chance
Write a word, stage a dance
Throw all of your every stupid precaution into wild, sleepless air
Wind 'em up, take 'em down
Instigate no more doubt
Take back, my friends, what's ALWAYS BEEN YOURS
And their days of control: they will come to an end
CHORUS
Ashes, ashes
"Bleat! Bleat! Bleat! Bleat!"
We're all falling down
"Bleat! Bleat! Bleat! Bleat!"
And from the ashes of despair
A crimson bird erupts and takes air
Shooting mushroom rainbows from the darkest high
Bringing hope of a new world
With a song in his throat and a willingness to care
It'll carry our messages well and won't define
I see you celebrate you
Sigh in hues of apple blues
Me too!
And from every dream you have shared
To all of the feathers and rings in your hair
Spanning life after life and never meeting up with yourself
Learning to fly, learning to fly
Without any wings on you to get by
Learning to fly, learning to fly
Learning to fly, learning to fly
When the danger and fear is closeby
Learning to fly, learning to fly
Watch the volcanoes cum
Watch the volcanoes cum
And from the ashes of despair
A crimson bird erupts and takes air
Spanning life after life and never meeting up with myself
And from every dream you have shed
To all of the feathers and rings in your hair
Spanning life after life and never meeting up with myself

JOURNEY
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2022
This is it
As I say "so long" to a familiar friend
Don't hold back
It was your faith that's granted me chance to bend
This is it
No more road; no, this is where the path'll end, yeah
This is it
As I gladly go toward forging my own ken
CHORUS:
Journey
The need to be happy
As long as try
(I will not bow out on the fight)
Journey
The need to be flying so high
And everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
This is it
And we will not sacrifice our happiness . . . x3
If we work together, we'll clean up the mess
Realise
We are all perfection, so we must be our best
This is it
Standing at the crossroads; time to assess
This is it
And we will not sacrifice our happiness
CHORUS x 2
REFRAIN:
(Sing along, be strong, do a happy little dance
We all deserve a second chance
And I know
We are gonna see the sun someday
If we just hold tight
And don't let obstacles get in the way . . . to end)
Everything will be
It'll be alright
Journey
