spec

(b. tilford)

i feel like a spec like a drop of water
floating in a stream down on a river
rollin to the sea up thru the clouds
right off the earth and on my way out

to be a universe together, span the distance
stick together, make the rhythm

since it’s always in the timing
a sense of time is always
in motion cleverly winding up away

i feel just like a spec…
is it just a matter of time and space
keeps us all in this place
walking thru a human race always

i feel like a spec like a drop of water
floating in the stream down on a river
rollin to the sea up and thru the clouds
right off the earth and on my way out

now i feel like a spec like a universe
floating in the heavens on the outskirts
of infinity knowing all the while
that it started just a spark on the map of my mind

sparks together
span the distance
sparks together
make the rhythm

God didn’t do it

available on amazon iTunes

(b. tilford)

God didn’t do it – didn’t make wars cars planes and killing in god’s name
God didn’t do it – there’s lots of will for free no refunds no exchange
love’s left lying around in the strangest faces
sometimes it blows in just like the wind through your hair
but sometimes nowhere does it say anywhere
that everything or even anything has to be fair

God didn’t do it – didn’t make the car check the time and get us to get in it
God didn’t do it – write a big black book for our perfect day hour minute
he doesn’t control everything although sometimes it seems
we all make payments to fate though our will is always free

God did the wind and the water mind and the matter God did

God didn’t do it – make wars cars planes or killing in God’s name
there’s lots of will for free no refunds no exchange
here’s your share of fear and hate and blues and blame
but at least and after all it’s not like we did these things
what if you and me did these things
what if it’s just you and me?

bug in my car

available on amazon iTunes

(b. tilford)

you are the bug in my car
you try to fly out through the rear window
you bang your head on the glass
can’t get out the way you came in

i’d probably crash in a panic reaching back to try and crush you smash you squash you splash you on the glass and the fact is i own your life span and it was just reduced to a mile and a half

you are the bug in my car
you try to fly out through the rear window
you bang your head on the glass
can’t get out the way you came in
you want to fly to the front
you’d like to sting me on the back of my head
i keep my window rolled down
wind coming in keeps you trapped on the rear dash

where you’re banging your head on the window again and again
you should just chill out
maybe later you can save yourself if you have any brains left

when i drove by you took a wrong turn for the rest of your life you’re stuck inside and you cannot recognize my thickly veiled concern to set you free ’cause i know you’ll just return

you are the bug in my car
you try to fly out through the rear window
you bang your head on the glass
can’t get out the way you came in
you are the bug in my car
too bad you shoulda chose a cadillac
you found my dashboard graveyard
if you could get out you wouldn’t even know where
you are the bug in my car you are the bug in my car
why are you the bug in my car?

don’t feel too bad.  i’m just a guy in car with a bug driving back and forth
it’s just the grace of god that keeps me from flying straight into a windshield called earth
