Mirror Spider

"For several years, I have been observing the odd behavior of the Mirror Spider (Thwaitesia sp.) where the "silver-plates" on the abdomen seem to shrink when the spider is agitated (or perhaps threatened), revealing the actual abdomen. At rest, the silver plates expand and the spaces between the plates close up to become an almost uniform reflective surface. That is why I called it the Mirror Spider."

One Day

One Day

Sister don't mind that i'm not on time

she knows that i'm through with that

sick of trying, don't let mine

mama's still loving and daddy still loves 

they know that i'm here like that

i'm like mine: true and kind 

Call me aside and i will now be

and i will be fine with that

don't leave me now, you might love me back

distance is fine, i know you can't care

and nothing is big like that

you don't see me now, i don't see you back 

one day i'll be fine with that

you don't leave me now

do you love me back? 

just to remind you i'm a mistake

how come you don't want to know?

you don't wanna see, you don't wanna show

kicking myself, i know that you're tough

yeah we can pretend we're that

gotta see how, you gotta leave that 

one day i'll be fine with that

you don't leave me now

do you love me back? 

snow is outside but i'm by your fire

i feel all the love you'll bring

you gotta see how we can see this out

summer in mind and spring by your side

you'll see all the love we'll keep

gotta see that we couldn't be there 

one day i'll be fine with that

you don't leave me now

do you love me back?

Bittersweet Symphony

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Trying to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah
No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mind
No, no, no, no, no, no, no,no,no,no,no,no(fading away)
Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mind
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I can't change
I can't change it
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Trying to make ends meet
Trying to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah
You know I can't change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mind
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change my mind
no, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
no, no, no
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
