Get It Together and Flow

Coldplay
Up & Up

Everything flows and nothing stays.

Heraclitus

I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take
Refuge in young man’s pleasure
Breaking down the

dreams we make real

Yes
Leave It

Why don’t you guide me in if I’m such a lost soul?
I’m spinning around

Audioslave
Revelations

Yeah, the world would swing
if I were king

Tom Petty
It’s Good to be King

Spin Doctors

(Turn It Upside Down)

Since I’m so broken down, why don’t you fix me?

Audioslave
Revelations

If Columbus was wrong,
I’d drive straight off the edge

Alkaline Trio
Radio

The crust is elusive when it casts forth
to the childlike man

Ween
Ocean Man

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky
and they stand there

Yes
Roundabout

Oh, there’s a mountain
that no man has mounted
I’m gonna stand on the peak

Lord Huron
Ends of the Earth

(Wall-E)

Did you think that your
feet had been bound
By what gravity brings to the ground?
Did you feel you were tricked
By the future you picked?
Well, come on down

Peter Gabriel
Down to the Earth
Wall-E Soundtrack

Some were never meant to leave the ground

Imagine Dragons
Look How Far We’ve Come

(Imagine Dragons – Birds)

Nothing to see here, move along
Nobody to hear your

black swan song

Alkaline Trio
I Can’t Believe

Butterfly in the sky,
I can go twice as high.

Reading Rainbow

Read the scene where
gravity is pulling me around
Shift the swaying river’s shift
Oceans fall and mountains drift

R.E.M.
Feeling Gravity’s Pull

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you
out and out

Yes
Roundabout

Imagine all the people

John Lennon
Imagine

Don’t be concerned
It’s just the way that gravity works round here

Franz Ferdinand
Always Ascending

Everything changes and nothing stands still.

Heraclitus

(Coldplay – Parachutes)

Minds are like parachutes:
They function only when they are open.

Louisville Times 1

The Eyes Are Useless When The Mind Is Blind

Unknown

Now Andy did you hear about this one?

R.E.M.
Man on the Moon

Under water,
Time is standing still
You’re the treasure,
Dive down deeper, still

BØRNS
10,000 Emerald Pools

It’s a wandering star
that lights my way tonight

Lucero
Wandering Star

I hoped to find why the
world wasn’t glowing
It’s darker as we end this ride

Our Lady Peace
Starseed

You could not step twice into the same river.

Heraclitus

We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We’re all carried along
By the river of dreams

Billy Joel
River of Dreams
