Gustavson Feeling the sag of mind, feeling The conscious ignorance, knowing. What. How. Tell me how. What is there to do. Even so. Hands won't hold if I Trust them with my weight. So. Then again, my feet are not close enough to my heart. I am. Sorrowful man. But it's not often I'm able to cry. Should I forget about that Mountain of Rejoycing or be Glad that there are eyelids to be watched, from time to time. Don't know. Truly, I don't understand. Can't feel sure that God will even hear a cry. Could our partings be running too deep. Even for the merging dreams. Feel like it's all too much to bear. Where's the chance for smiles to happen; Unable. Don't even know What to hope and pray for. The final tangled junction of all dead ends . Of pain; Truth revealed. Mine. Finders seekers. Strength. Should I consider somebody Who's just not to be right for the feelings. I Don't know. Truly, I don't understand. Can't feel sure that God will even hear a cry. Who will bring comfort. Who will stay, Near; who will bear my touch. No friend, no love; nowbody To understand: All in-vain thoughts Trying their best to satisfy The mind. But the vanity You take only when you're very weak... Very: Finished as they are, Feel I'm not weak; yet. Not yet. Or then, my weakness. May just pass unnoticed through my weakness. Don't know. Truly I don't understand. Can't feel sure that God will even hear the cries.

Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people living for today Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people living life in peace You, you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people sharing all the world You, you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And the world will live as one

Introducing my friend from the fields You don't have much money, you know how it feels Down at the heels, chasing the blackbirds away Uh huh, uh huh, forever Uh huh, forever now Hi'falutin', I've got my turnips and peels Don't have no shovel, you know how it feels Down at the heels, chasing the blackbirds away Old scarecrow getting nearer and near Well, he could be a schizo or maybe a queer We won't know 'till we get it Together, uh huh, forever Uh huh, forever now Hi'falutin', uh huh
