Rilkean Heart

(Acoustic Version)

Rilkean heart
I looked for you
To give me transcendent experiences
To transport me out of self and aloneness
And alienation into a sense of oneness
And connection ecstatic and magical
I became a junkie for it
I came looking for the next high
And I'm sorry
I've been putting the search on the wrong place

I understand that you're confused
Feeling overwhelmed
Well that's a feeling state from then
The reality

I'm becoming truly self-reliant and
Becoming connected with something beyond me
That is where I have to go
I'm so sorry
I've been putting the search on the wrong place

You're lost and don't know what to do
But that's not all of you
That's the reality today
And that is all okay

Half-Gifts

(Acoustic Version)

It's an old game, my love:
When you can't have me, you want me
Because you know that you're not risking anything

Intimacy is when we're in the same place
At the same time
Dealing honestly with how we feel
And who we really are
That's what grownups do
That is mature thinking

Well I'm still a junkie for it
It takes me out of my aloneness
But this relationship cannot sustain itself

Intimacy is when we're in the same place
At the same time
Dealing honestly with how we feel
And who we really are
That's what grownups do
That is mature thinking

I just have to know
How to be in the process
Of creating things in a better way

And it hurts, but it's a lie
That I can't handle it
I still have a world of me-ness to fulfill
I still care about this planet
I am still connected to nature
And to my dreams for myself

I have my friends
My family
I have myself
I still have me

I have my friends
My family
I have myself
I still have me
