lyrics

if u had yr way
 would u choose to stay 
anymore

if yr mind did not 
cooperate too hot 
anymore

not that it ever did 
since u were a kid 
on the floor

u were rollin around
 respondin to sound 
i'm sure

i'm sure somewhere in yr mind 
u have peace of mind
 more

than any of us – 
we all make a fuss
 in our core

can you deny the score?
oh i cant lie anymore

if u had yr way 
would u choose to stay
 in new york

or would u prefer 
somewhere much warmer
 like LA – i kno

u never could say 
“like that” or “this way” 
or implore

u never could run 
go outside have fun 
and explore

all the hands on yr face 
markin a place
 on yr forehead

no no no they dont understand
 no grand master plan’s 
in the hand of

the lord denies the score 
oh i can’t lie anymore

if u had yr way 
would yr ashes spray
 from the shore

of the great south bay 
near one-eight-three 
s. snedecor

i kno all day we would lay
 in the shade of 
an old sycamore

my thoughts resound 
each leaf fallin down
 reassures

with each passin day
 i’ll open and close 
the same door

to find u
 thirsty and cryin
 inside who’s dyin more?

how can you deny the score 
oh i won’t lie anymore

Emotions and Math
by Margaret Glaspy

supported by 4 fans who also own “Cassie's Song”

I know this is itself a cliche but it feels insincere to attempt to use words to express the emotions this album elicited. I tried to use math to calculate how much joy and love I feel but again I came up short... anyway exquisite Sanders Ilenstine
