Intentional Frequencies - Red Onions Lyrics

I pulled a number out of my pocket, it belonged to a detective, I called his office, it rang
And rang, but no one answered me
Next I tried the family lawyer, but we ain't got one, so I called my sorcerer, he said
Red onions all the way from Sicily

He told me that if I concoct a red onion brew that stinks up half the block, I can use the
Skins and the bark of an old pine tree
To form a dye that lifts the curse of any lonesome soul who's at their worst, I said
I believe that applies to me

Desire pulls you forward, desire pulls you back, desire's what's left standing when good
Judgment has lapsed
If you find yourself in trouble with nature, man, or God, may desire pull you out of whatever
Trip you're on

Next I set my sights on fixing the world, I couldn't do that, so I reached for a pearl
Inside my pocket, but it fell out while I was asleep
Naturally I devised a plan to gently pull my head out from the sand, but the wind never
Gave way to a cool calm breeze

I'm out of mind, I'm out of sorts, I sold my dye at all of the ports, any minute now
My assets all could freeze
But if Hercules could learn to run and read big books in his spare time, I can find a
Way to just be me

Desire pulls you forward, desire pulls you back, desire's what's left standing when good
Judgment has lapsed
If you find yourself in trouble with nature, man, or God, may desire pull you out of whatever
Trip you're on

I gave up on all of my plans just as fast as the lightning ran across the sky shouting
Signals to the moon
I thought, man, I'm out of luck, sky full of rain, nowhere to duck, I hope this story
Ends well and sometime soon

But life continues on and on, it's hard to see the world when the curtains are drawn, but
Trying to read your mind is a little like reading runes
I'd continue the story about the die, but I flushed it down the drain and said goodbye
And thought to myself red onions aren't for you

Desire pulls you forward, desire pulls you back, desire's what's left standing when good
Judgment has lapsed
If you find yourself in trouble with nature, man, or God, may desire pull you out of whatever
Trip you're on

May desire pull you out of whatever trip you're on
May desire pull you out of whatever trip you're on
