I've edited the new song, "Help is on the Way (I know Patrick was interested in that (grin). So, now all I've got to do is record it.
Dog Poet Transmitting.......
"May your noses always be cold and wet and running with music'.
"Help is on the Way"
"I'm bring home the starlight
With no bottom in my pail
In tranquil worlds forgotten
with no tiger on our tail
Is it the dust I'm made of
that has me walking blind
while you fill up and surround me
In the darkness of my mind
There's no one can oppose me
So make way I'm coming through
I'm walking through my falling down
into the heart of you
You can have these worlds of splendor
that wrinkle and decay
I take my passion timeless
and help is on the way
Help is on the way
to the better part of me
help is pushing sunlight
through my ancient judas tree
From the compost of corruption
comes the power to transform
all the worlds we'll ever know
you keep us cool you make us warm
you're the bending end of silence
my true serenity
You're the timeless
"look! I forgot my watch
don't cry, it's only me"
dry your tears upon my heart cause
it is only me and
help is on the way
help is on the way
Help is on the way
To the dying gulf of Mexico
in the fukishima rain
I can feel the mountains tremble
I know love will win again
no matter who opposes love
still love will find a way
to break our hearts and asses
while it finds a place to stay
I've been hungry for the homeland
I've been gone for lifetimes by
now I see the flames that flicker
in the fireplace tonight
I looking through the ever leaves
in the darkling of the night
from a place that is the future
my god its all too bright.
Help is on the way
to the better part of me
help is pushing sunlight
through my ancient judas tree
From the compost of corruption
comes the power to transform
all the worlds we'll ever know
you keep us cool you make us warm
you're the bending end of silence
my true serenity
You're the timeless
"look! I forgot my watch
don't cry, it's only me"
dry your tears upon my heart cause
it is only me and
help is on the way
help is on the way
Help is on the way
There's no one can oppose me
so make way I'm coming through
I'm walking through my falling down
into the heart of you
I've been drunk on wine and whiskey
I've been stoned and I've been shunned
but all of that's behind me
I believe I've found the one
I took some lives and detours
it took it's time and time again
but I am on the near horizon now
on that you can depend
they've been taking bets about me
for several thousand years
You can't compute the agony
that ocean is my tears
And now- Help is on the way
to the better part of me
help is pushing sunlight
through my ancient judas tree
From the compost of corruption
comes the power to transform
all the worlds we'll ever know
you keep us cool you make us warm
you're the bending end of silence
my true serenity
You're the timeless
"look! I forgot my watch
don't cry, it's only me"
dry your tears upon my heart cause
it is only me and
help is on the way
help is on the way
Help is on the way
What was it I was doing
as all this time went by
I was hiding in the underbrush
and now I don't know why
Now the moments on us
As we see the living light
Make ashes from the darkness
My god it's just too bright
it's a strange intoxication
that I'm impatient for you now
as long as this has taken
I should be stoical somehow
but there's no way up around it
it could be a million years
but I would keep on a coming
cause that's the death of fear
Yes, Help is on the way
to the better part of me
help is pushing sunlight
through my ancient judas tree
From the compost of corruption
comes the power to transform
all the worlds we'll ever know
you keep us cool you make us warm
you're the bending end of silence
my true serenity
You're the timeless
"look! I forgot my watch
don't cry, it's only me"
dry your tears upon my heart cause
it is only me and
help is on the way
help is on the way
Help is on the way
I know it's a little long but sometimes that's how it is.
End Transmission.......
No song this time because we already got one (grin)

an intuition of the panic upon them as sanity inevitably breaks loose and swipes away the dogs of war.

i wish i believed in words
like you do all scrunched up
and imbued with meanings
i throw them out like seeds
knowing full well they fallow
many more times than they root

Very nice. Could not help but note the similarity of title (& intent) to a R.Hunter tune. If your not familiar with Robert Hunter's poetry, he wrote many Dead tunes (some of the best IMHO). His words often spoke of the human search for meaning and spirit. Very appropriate to the general spirit of this site. : ) "Without love in the dream It will never come true."

"Help on the Way"
Paradise waits
on the crest of a wave
her angels in flame
She has no pain
Like a child, she is pure
She is not to blame
Poised for flight
Wings spread bright
Spring from night
into the sun
Don't stop to run
She can fly like a lie
She cannot be outdone
Tell me the cost
I can pay
Let me go
Tell me love is not lost
Sell everything
Without love, day to day,
insanity is king
I will pay
day by day
anyway
Lock, bolt and key
Crippled but free
I was blind
all the time
I was learning to see
Help on the way
I know only this
I've got you today
Don't fly away
'cause I love what I love
and I want it that way
I will stay
one more day
Like I say
Honey, it's you
Without love in the dream
It will never come true
- Words: Robert Hunter; music: Jerry Garcia
