Sasquatch of the Night

4/24/2024

High up on a mountain,
in the forests of the north,
beneath a misty sunset,
a creature ventures forth.

It walks beneath the branches
through the brush along the ground.
A giant and protector,
it moves without a sound.

Oh, oh,
traveler from Faerun.
Guardian of the Forest,
hid beneath the moon.

Oh, oh,
Sasquatch of the Night,
a shadow to the hunter,
to the Earth a shining light.

A mighty stride beneath him,
and power in his hand,
he cares for all creation
in his protected land.

A watcher and a warrior
with peace within his heart.
From other realms he whispers
with wisdom to impart.

Oh, oh,
traveler from Faerun.
Guardian of the Forest,
hid beneath the moon.

Oh, oh,
Sasquatch of the Night,
a shadow to the hunter,
to the Earth a shining light.

He calls across the mountains,
is heard for miles around
by souls in search of something more,
of nature’s healing sound.

Oh, oh,
traveler from Faerun.
Guardian of the Forest,
hid beneath the moon.

Oh, oh,
Sasquatch of the Night,
a shadow to the hunter,
to the Earth a shining light.

Sasquatch of the Night,
to the Earth a shining light.

The Kokopelli Song

[Verse]
A mystic tune flew on the wind
across the dust and sand.
Behind it, in the fire of sun,
a daring, dancing man.

Of mystery and wisdom,
of ancient Twisted Hair,
he moved like words and whispers
with news and tales to share.

[Chorus]
Kokopelli, the wandering sage,
secret of the desert in another age.
Kokopelli, the bringer of trade,
bringer of hope and the music that he played.

[Verse]
His flute announced his magic,
and called for life and birth.
It drew the rains of springtime
to restore a drying Earth.

The Elders heard his whistle
and welcomed him to stay,
explored the goods he brought them,
then blessed him on his way.

[Chorus]
Kokopelli, the wandering sage,
secret of the desert in another age.
Kokopelli, the bringer of trade,
bringer of hope and the music that he played.

[Bridge]
What he carried on his back was a mystery:
the secrets of life that could set the desert free.
Through the silence of sound and the dark of day,
his stories and his music led the way.

[Chorus]
Kokopelli, the wandering sage,
secret of the desert in another age.
Kokopelli, the bringer of trade,
bringer of hope and the music that he played.

Secret of the desert in another age.

Mr. Pibbs

This song caught me off guard, as I didn't know where it would go or how beautiful (I think) it would end up.

For me, it ends up being about the spiritual development of an individual and of humanity as a whole. We all know Mr Pibbs. And we are all Mr Pibbs. And we all play a role in the growth of Mr Pibbs.

[Verse]
In his darkest mind of minds,
Mr. Pibbs is blind
to all the things there are to see,
to letting goodness be.

[Verse]
He’s looking for his glory now,
to shining through his story.
He’s bending ears and earning tears,
promoting midnight fears.

[Chorus]
Mr. Pibbs is quite the kid,
stuck inside and small,
wishing he were something more,
afraid that he will fall.
But Mr. Pibbs is one of us.
That’s something after all.

[Verse]
In his cloudy day to day to day,
he tries to make his way
to the tops of charts and broken hearts
from his place of broken starts.

[Verse]
Mr. Pibbs is looking better now
with his plastic face and sweater.
He smiles at us the whole day long
and tries to sing a better song.

[Chorus]
Mr. Pibbs is quite the kid,
stuck inside and small,
wishing he were something more,
afraid that he will fall.
But Mr. Pibbs is one of us.
That’s something after all.

[Bridge]
There are times of life we all know Mr. Pibbs.
Times when we can smile. Times to lend a hand.
For Mr. Pibbs is one of us, and it’s time for him to stand.
Mr. Pibbs is breaking to be a better man.

[Chorus]
Mr. Pibbs was quite the kid,
stuck inside his past,
wishing he were something more,
and now he is at last.

[Outro]
Mr. Pibbs is one of us.
He greets us every day.
The best of us, the worst of us,
he’s here to show the way.

The best of us, the worst of us,
the nighttime and the day.
And we’re here to walk the way.
