According to Buddha
Today I forgive all those who have ever offended me. I give my love to all thirsty hearts, both to those who love me and those who do not love me.
so many people
are so broken
and this story’s
broken too
we go looking
for forgiveness
for things we did
or didn’t do

According to Buddha
Only the wise know just where predestination ends and free will begins. Meanwhile, you must keep on doing your best, according to your own clearest understanding.
when i cross over will you meet me
will you walk me to the bright
will you lead me on the dance floor
of that everlasting light
in the meantime
here on earth time
i am something of a song
but i once drank your
whole abandon
wanting only to belong
you have helped me to be tender
you have taught me to be true
i went empty
up a mountain
and brought back
a piece of you
