Light Machine
(Aguirre)
With a love like that
It’s easy it seems along the way
Hoping the boogeyman don’t show
Feeling the need to plant the seed of hide and seek
Illusions of manna along the way
Watching the sand of deserts grow
Now’s the time to renew the mind again
Rhetorically pronouncing one’s dismay
Confessions of a lonely one we no longer need
With a love like that
I’m never alone or feel afraid
Even the boogeyman don’t know
Sowing the seed among the weeds is like hide and seek
And as for the man along the way
Lover I died that you would know
Mind the time til the Wine comes back again
Historically renouncing one’s delay
The Right among the night of darker yesterdays
Confessions of the One
They call me the Light Machine

Turn and Remember
(Aguirre)
Turn and remember
Turn to me and be gracious to me
Turn to me I am lonely
Turn to me in my distress
Turn to me in my anguish
Remember Your great mercy and love
Remember not the sins of my youth
Remember me according to Your love
Remember me at the end
Turn and remember

Because of You
(Aguirre)
So many times
I think of all the ways and how you fed my mind
And though it’s through
I try so hard to not remember
The more I do
The less I miss the times when I believed in you
And now I know
That all you ever said was never
Something I ever needed
Appreciated
And now I’ve made it
No longer tainted
Because of You
I close my eyes
And think of all the ways and how You feed my mind
With all that’s True
To make it easy to remember
And when I do
The more I long for times when I’m alone in You
And how I’ll die
If I don’t keep Your words forever
Something I never needed
Appreciated
And now I’ve made it
Been liberated
Emancipated
Reincarnated
Because of You
So many times
I’ve closed my eyes and wished the world could see You too
And if they would
Thank God they’ve made it
Because of You

The Dreaming
(Aguirre, Rosentrater)
I stand atop suspended
The morning dew upon my shoes
While perched on high ascended
The sky below a crimson hue
And as the heights continue
A Caspian air enwraps me through
Now as I stand suspended
My open eyes encounter You
What can I do?
I stood alone defenseless
My mind a voidless solitude
Like Ransom long before me
The sight restrained my latitude
And when I thought I’d falter
A thunderous sound awakened youth
So there I stood defenseless
My open ears encountering You
What should I do?
I listened hard and restless
I listened heard like eating food
And as I swallowed substance
The sound of Terrans chimed anew
What can we do?
I woke to muddled senses
My faceless glow
The mark of You

Morning Star
(Aguirre, Tunnell)
In reflections through a tainted glass I take it in stride
Many stop to ponder willingly at the One they disguise
Adulation
Comes in so many sizes
And in the end we’ll bow on bended knee to the Giver of Life
Keeper of innocence
Bright Morning Star
You know how I love You
Seeker searching for some definition
Some meaning and light
While on the other hand I long to listen with a spirit contrite
Fascination
Comes in so many vices
And in the end myself and seeker will stand before the Giver of Life
Sleeper in darkness
Come as you are
You know how He longs for you
More precious than anything
Like the heavens above
Find me content in the glow of Your love
Sleeper in darkness
Come as you are
You know how He longs for you
Keeper of innocence
Bright Morning Star
You know how I love You

Everything
(Aguirre, Kelly)
Can you catch him by the eyes
Or trap him and pierce his nose
Can you pull him in with a hook
Or tie down his tongue with a rope
Everything
Under heaven
Can you put a cord through his nose
Or pierce his jaw with a fishhook
Can you make him a pet like a bird
Or put him on a leash for your girls
Everything
Under heaven
Everything
Belongs to Me

Ophelia
(Aguirre, Tunnell)
Voices as loud as feathers
Soft as a raging sea
Eyes the color of missing you
Sometimes it threatens me
And the scenery is begging to give it some life
I tug on the curtain while telling me all of your lies
And the Dreaming drowns in the whites of your eyes
Out comes the silver lining we’ll never survive
Oh my
Touching is like a window
Scratch me and watch me bleed
Pour me out bright as the midnight
And you’ll see my side
And the feelings are stretching to give it some life
Can’t keep the story growing the laughter denies
So I’m dreaming bound by the night of your eyes
Back on the rack making promises
Speaking of love
Oh my
Ophelia

(Looks Like) We Made It
(Aguirre)
Non stop and it feels right
Late nights and twilights
Such a long way to the haunting grounds of old
Cigarettes and the FM
Rearview and headlights
Such a long way but we’ll get there just the same
Looks like we made it
Full speed to the countdown
Kilometers and black ground
Any day now and we’ll kiss the path goodbye
Non stop and it feels right
Late nights and twilights
Baby stay away till the engine settles down
Motorcity just another town to town
Backstreet boys leave me spinning round and round
Giddy up cowboy don’t cha worry ‘bout how to steer
I’m a back seat driver
I’m the passenger
is all I hear

Song for my Children
(Aguirre)
Such a delicate little hopeful full of life
Starting with a solitary cry
So eager to learn
To love
To
Like a flower
It seems like the time the children crying
Dying
Again
A compassionate little soul full of delight
Taking the steps of independent life
So willing to fall to tumble
By the hour
I know it’s the time for children growing and leaving
My friend
Again
You don’t really know how fast the time flies ‘til you look in their eyes
Innocent and vulnerable one day
Then what a surprise
It’s so hard to believe someone has taken your baby away
When you realize that delicate hopeful has grown up today
Such a confident little handful facing life
And it started with a solitary cry
So eager to learn
To live
To
Like a tower
I remember the times my children crying
Smiling
My friend
Again
You don’t really know how fast the time flies ‘til you look in their eyes
Innocent and vulnerable one day
Then what a surprise
It’s so hard to believe someone has taken your baby away
When you realize that delicate hopeful has grown up today

And I Go
(Aguirre, Rosentrater)
Looking to cross the water
Looking to dot my I’s
Looking to avoid the slaughter
Damned blinding council of flies
Wishing for the cup of Water
Wishing for a wishing well
I’m wishing for the One I love (to find me one day_)
Beloved subject to Tell
And I go
I’m finding consolation
I’m finding peace of heart
Finding is such a piece of illusion
Was lost but now I’m Art
Iron Grey has a way of rusting
Any day and the brittle will show
Yesterday no longer slapping
Broadside and I’m ready to go
I nearly kept the cadence
Subjecting you to poetic drivel and boredom
God I can’t stand the boredom
Does anybody really know the Way?
The way to the straight and narrow
The way without wishing and looking
The Way that’s easy to Tell
And I go
And when I go
I’m going to fly
Up in the sky
Sweet by and by
I’m going to fly
In the sky
Sweet by and by

Mercy
(Aguirre)
You have made me
Your hands have shaped me
You’ve molded me like clay
With skin You’ve clothed me
With bones You’ve knit me
Fearfully wonderfully made
My only plea
My only plea is mercy
Orion maker
The Bear caretaker
Treader of the waves of the sea
You’re mountain shaker and heaven stretcher
When You pass it’s so hard to see
My only plea
My only plea is mercy

One and Only
(Aguirre)
Chew the fat though I know it’s thin
Rest assured we are all but aging
Take my hand while I born-again and crave devotion
You make it hard to breathe
You’re altogether Lovely
And with my life believe
You’ll be my One and only One
So light the candle brighter and brighter
Fan the flame inside of me
This and that ‘cause I know it’s in
Jimmy says we are all the raging
Take my hand should I bleed again or lack emotion
You make it hard to breathe
You’re altogether Lovely
And with my life believe
You’ll be my One and only One
So light the candle brighter and brighter
Fan the flame inside of me

Stymie
(Aguirre)
He called me over like watching dailies
He swallowed fire claiming he wouldn’t burn
And as I followed choking the ashes
I nearly lost my ride
Where does your love go
Where does your allegiance lie
Who does your heart hold
Who’s gonna kiss the sky for me
Swimming shark-infested waters
Kissing all the creature features
Sleeping with Gomorrah’s daughters
Eating with the fattened preachers
Stymie
He brought a briefcase
That sinking feeling
I tried to watch him with that look in his eyes
And as I followed the heebie-jeebies
I finally looked to my side
Where does your love go
Where does your allegiance lie
Who does your heart hold
Who’s gonna crack the sky for me
Swimming shark-infested waters
Kissing all the creature features
Sleeping with Gomorrah’s daughters
Eating with the fattened preachers
Stymie
Where does your love go
Who’s gonna crack the sky

Arise my darling
My beautiful one
Come away with me
See how the winter has passed and the rains are over and gone
Come away with me
Come away with me
The flowers are blooming
They dance with the dew and the voice of the dove has been heard
Come away with me
Arise my darling
My beautiful one
Come away with me
Come away my beautiful one

You watch me when I wake
Pick me up if I make a mistake and I believe You
You’ll catch me should I fall
You’re the light when the night is darkest of all
So I will love You
I will love You
You promise love and grace
And the power to run the race and I believe You
You’ll catch me should I fall
You’re the light when the night is darkest of all
So I will love you
I will love You
I will love You

Spy Glass Blüe Dallas, Texas
It is no secret that by the time Sin Disease found its way into music stores, Aguirre had been playing the LA club scene with his band Cygnet. The average music enthusiasts tends to regard Scaterd Few as a big fish in a small pond. However, Aguirre gravitated towards dark wave, playing alongside bands like Jane’s Addiction. Years later, Cygnet ended up evolving into the moniker Spy Glass Blüe. ... more
