Bill Hicks 03:27
High alone in the winter, waiting for an encounter with a ghost I know; the tri-tone chords play even worse when I get close. / This never used to be me, waiting up for the chance to get your note. / I couldn't believe it: that one of us could really go. / It's Bill Hicks' cosmic joke, / A haunted house with a ghost I know. They say you can't hear me when I talk to my room in a subtle spell. / My gut says they're right, man, but it's not enough to kill my / Soft doubt, it runs all ways / To keep the sword away from my name. High alone in the winter, I alone am the winner. I'm too ripped and they're so uptight, / You're dark you're dark, and if you're light, you're light. / Too ripped and they're so uptight, / But there's nothing to prove - it's just a ride.

Everything 05:09
Once you know your power, they cannot take it back. They may tie your hands tight, but your eyes are your eyes And you have walked the path; nothing can change that. When you were a child, you knew what you know - Then their clumsy rules became the nuisance that killed you. But you have walked the path; nothing can change that. Now you get to be everything. You get to be everything. You get to be everything that you can't erase.
