Mercury
Rise up! Like mercury! In this climate, in this climate
Slow down, like traffic stalled, in this city, in this city
No more talking, engines running, let’s go walking down the street.
It’s just a block and we’ve both got ten toes on two pairs of feet.
We’ve got to burn the clutch and grind the gears and stall the car for my waking fears
Turn it all off
Rise up! Like mercury! In this climate, in this climate
Slow down, like traffic stalled, in this city, in this city
All this asphalt,
it is my fault. Turn the paving stone into bricks for homes
There’s no time to idle in the queue
Burning burning
Harness the sun or the wind instead
The earth is
Yearning yearning
For us to shut it all down
Let’s shut it all down
Rise up! Like mercury! In this climate, in this climate.
Slow down, like traffic stalled, in this city, in this city
– Vagabond Prophet
– Third song, not super happy with it but I hope you like it all the same.

Smoke
The smoke rolls through
Looking for a sign of you.
It twists and spins
Looking for some truth within
The skies turned gray
Like a dissapointing parade.
Is this all there is?
This Valley of ash
Is this all there is
This site of a crash ?
The smoke ran through
Leaving no trace of you
I don’t know what to do
Without a trace of you
So roll through like smoke
Even if it leaves me broke
Is this all there is?
This Valley of ash
Is this all there is
This site of a crash ?
Is this all that there ever was?
Tell me why do you do it?
Why do you put me through it?
If this is all there ever was
Is this all there is?
This Valley of ash
Is this all there is
This site of a crash?
You fill me like smoke
And leave a bit of light within
After this smokescreen
Now I really know what’s clean
– Vagabond Prophet
– Song number two everybody I hope you like it.
