lyrics

I feel a cool breeze blowing over me
Nothing I want and nothing that I see
Can sedate me
Don't placate me

I know this woman, I've got a friend
She's always looking for new means to an end
She could teach me to fly and never to die
Thought I'd take my time
And try not to die

Then came the night when I cried out for myself
Felt I'd been hiding for too long on the shelf
I had basked there
Had no task there

I threw the decisions around in my sleep
Tried to pull the divisions down, they're too deep
So I try to maintain this home on the range
Still it feels quite strange
If I were a hue, I suppose I'd be blue
But I'll find my way to you

A cold feeling is under my skin
Can't be without and I can't be within
Living as a chameleon, the hardest part
Is knowing what you really are
Mark my words, when this change is through
I'll find my way to you

Under a bridge I lie, wondering what's above
A man below yells, "Seargent, no! He knows not what he does."
When dabbling with the occult isn't yielding much results
Not waving but drowning
I'll lace up my shoes and I'll find some truth
As I'm on my way to you

Still a cool breeze is blowing over me
It's grown dark and it's gotten hard to see
Thought I was healing but I've been sent reeling
Just another day
Don't know if I can mend before I reach the end
But I'll find my way

about

Toffees Antron Tulsa, Oklahoma

Born in a cave and raised by marmots, it was always John Toffees Antron's dream to become an expert basket weaver. When that fell through, due to a basket-related brush with death, he began whistling. And thus began nearly ten years working as a lobbyist for dwarf mining rights. Since, he has turned his attention to the plight of the noble marmot. Every day's a struggle, but every day counts. ... more
