He who commences many things finishes but few.

Prepared To Cut Away From Doubt
We speak with words,
And let the best we should receive...
Be those words to go unheard.
We wish to be clear and precise,
With a calm exterior.
But a distrust with us occupies the interior.
And within some searching minds,
Is found a definition of peace.
Attachments become dramatically left...
To be released for an immediate increase,
Of a fresh air to breathe!
There is a sense that commences,
A beginning we can not do without.
This sense with us commences,
And we are prepared to cut away from doubt.

Hissing From Them Begins To Vent
They run back into their dungeons,
Afraid to face another day of daylight...
And conflicts with those,
Who oppose darkness.
A demand to correct their ways has come.
Leaving them stunned by the one who says this!
And protest the way this 'commandment' is made.
As a retreating commences,
A hissing from them begins to 'vent'.
They run back into their dungeons,
Afraid to face another day of daylight...
And conflicts with those,
Who oppose darkness.
As a retreating commences,
A hissing from them...
Begins to 'vent'.
A hissing,
From them...
Begins,
To vent!

Empire Square production finishes in about a month's time, so at the moment, right now, I'm just completely full on Empire Square. There's no time to do anything else. But there's a few things on the back burner, including another Blur album before too long.

Things Are Looking Up
If I should suddenly start to sing
Or stand on my head or anything
Dont think that Ive lost my senses
Its just that my happiness finally commences
The long long ages of dull despair
Are turning into thin air
And it seems that suddenly ive
Become the happiest girl alive
Things are looking up
Ive been looking the landscape over
And its covered with 4 leaf clover
Oh things are looking up
Since love looked up at me
Bitter was my cup
But no more will I be the mourner
For Ive certainly turned the corner
Oh things are looking up
Since love looked up at me
See the sunbeams
Every one beams
Just because of you
Loves in session
And my depression
Is unmistakably through
Things are looking up
Its a great little world we live in
Oh Im happy as a pup
Since love looked up at me
(bridge)
See the sunbeams
Every one beams
Just because of you
Loves in session
And my depression
Is unmistakably through
Things are looking up
Its a great little world we live in
Oh Im happy as a pup
Since love looked up at me

Hay-Fever
My nose knows
how irritating itching grows
how weeping commences
to run like holed hose.

A person always breaking off from work never finishes anything.
Education commences at the mother's knee, and every word spoken within hearsay of little children tends toward the formation of character.
