Listen to Fluid by Richard Charles Stevens
Listen to Vale by Bicep
Imagine a door
Now
Walk through it
Dream an ideal
Go pursue it
View it through eyes
Crystal clear as blue skies
Spare a thought
For the child
Who outgrew it
Do it
Or else you might rue it
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Do it
Or else you might rue it
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Become fluid
Fluid
Imagine a world
Let the banner unfurl
To reveal your impassioned creation
Be a boy
Be a girl
Duchess
Duke
Countess
Earl
Feed the roots
Seeds and shoots
Duly raise them
Be astute
Be aloof
See a crime
Be a sleuth
Seek to find deepest root
Silent eyes speak its truth
Silent eyes speak its truth
Silent eyes speak its truth
Silent eyes speak its truth
Speak its truth
Speak its truth
Imagine reawakening
At riverside
Feel dignified to wade the stream
Where nature breathes
The same way facing
Chasing breeze
Chasing breeze
Chasing breeze
Chasing breeze
Chasing breeze
Chasing breeze
Playfully proceed
Make haste to shade beneath the tree most spacious
Taste its weeping sap
Enrapture
Feel unchained
Unchaste
Salacious
Be flirtatious
Turning pages
Lick your finger
Let it linger
Play dead ringer
Be courageous
Break the stasis
Take it places
Weightless
Freightless
Ageless
Vivacious
In claiming outrageous
All waking narration
Make graven thy name
In the safest placed haven
Where famed be the raven’s unchanging persuasion
Remain in its gaze
Lay with grace in its shade
Make delight of the light
Which invites serenade
While free flight steepens height of amaze
While free flight steepens height of amaze
Weightless
Imagine a way
To play freely ideally
Fashion the planes of each dreamscape sincerely
Dearly depart
Bid farewell to the flesh
Then make welcome address
To a world wherein blessed
To unfurl bare except for the elegant dress
That of senses refreshed
As you venture the depths
Of ascent
To no ends
No regrets
Slowing jets
No remorse
Groping thoughts
No expression overwrought
No life lesson overtaught
Never destined to be caught
Never destined to be caught
Imagine a way
To play freely ideally
Where clearly these dreams best be sought
Imagine a door
Now
Walk through it
Dream an ideal
Go pursue it
View it through eyes
Crystal clear as blue skies
Spare a thought
For the child
Who outgrew it
Reimagine said door
Now
Walk through it
And I’ll see you next time you are fluid
You are fluid
I’ll see you next time you are fluid
You are fluid
I’ll see you next time you are fluid
Fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
Run to the sun
Become fluid
You are
Fluid
