You Pin Both The Wings On Us

Say no more, use your eyes
The world goes and flutters by...

I see the walls and see them fall
You break through them all
I see you crawl, now you stand tall
Grow and grow till tall

In storm we scream against the stream, our eyes watering
Jump into lakes, the surface breaks
We swim underwater, and our mouths - In tune

I see forest, a treasure chest full of labyrinth
I see a door, holes in the floor
We'll breed seeds - We grow

We all want to grow with the seeds we will sow
We all want to go with the trees we will grow
We all want to know when we're all meant to go
To a place you and I - Will call home

There's songs, songs you bring to us
You pin both wings on us
I hear it, I see you sing for us
You go tie a string around us

We all grow, use your life,
The world goes and flutters by.

Imagine

~Buddhist Prayer For Peace~

May all beings everywhere plagued
with sufferings of body and mind
quickly be freed from their illnesses.
May those frightened cease to be afraid,
and may those bound be free.
May the powerless find power,
and may people think of befriending
one another.
May those who find themselves in trackless,
fearful wilderness–
the children, the aged,
the unprotected–
be guarded by beneficial celestials,
and may they swiftly attain Buddhahood.

Evoking the presence of the great compassion,
let us fill our hearts with our own compassion–
towards ourselves and towards all living beings.
Let us pray that all living beings realize
that they are all brothers and sisters,
all nourished from the same source of life.
