40 Days 40 Nights

The desert knows what the Lord forgot
I came here for a reason
But fuck if I know what
Swear I could see it from a distance
But was distance all I sought?
40 days 40 nights in an endless parking lot
Come on and find yourself where you already were
The sameness slides like lullabies
Need to be concerned
If self-improvement is a movement
I can see it in your hips
Now go'n ahead and stand back babe
Good Boy's about to hit a lick
Oh no

I walked down to the ocean and looked out at the expanse
It felt like home, the great unknown, exciting at a glance
So plant me down, laid with the ground, a carnal knowledge will abound
But life is good, misunderstood, and in the search we never could just

Want your soul
Your jewels your gold
So walk through the coals
And we'll make you whole

We'll make you whole
We'll make you whole

The ocean remembers
And I was stricken by the thought
Transfixed by the wisdom
I sat until the day was shot
Shivered frozen in the moonlight
'Til I realized where I was
40 days 40 nights and still no answer from above
I wanna find myself
Catch the tiger by his toe
But there's no forward, there's no back
There's only here and now, and so
As the sun sank to horizon I took off my shoes and socks
And made my way down to the water, clamberin' on the jagged rocks

Stood in the shallows of the ocean and stared out at the expanse
It felt like home, the great unknown could be my final chance
I lay me down, the soothing sound, the sun corona mountain crown
The frigid sea has much to teach, but inner peace is never cheap, they

Want your souls
Your jewels your gold
So walk through the coals
And they'll make you whole

And as the tide slowly crept into my eyes
I saw things as they really are
Strewn haphazard with errant grace
Everything in its right place
Strewn haphazard with errant grace
Everything in its, everything in its place
Strewn haphazard with errant grace
Everything in its right place
