Trust the Chaos
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

The world spins, we watch it all,
We sit still as the moments crawl.

Whispers fade in a paper cup,
Storm rages, we worry not.
What are you talking about?
Trust the chaos, silver lining.

Here on Earth, for a brief ride,
Unseen friends walk by our side.
Clouds drift by, no reason why.

Whispers fade in a paper cup,
Storm rages, we worry not.
What are you talking about?
Trust the chaos, silver lining, we’re flying!

In the quiet, we find our way,
A new dawn rises, with colors,
But first, I’ll check my phone,
What did you say?

The Hand I Miss
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

The road was gone.
The sky was still.
I walked on cracks
and climbed a hill.
No map, no plan,
just breath and stone—
and something near
when I’m alone.

Not a voice—
but not quite air.
Like silence
that had learned to care.
No footsteps made,
no shadow cast—
you simply moved
when questions passed.

You are the pause
that feels like grace.
The hand I miss
but still can trace.
You never speak,
you never try—
a faithful guide
that watches sky.

I dropped the weight
I thought was me.
The ground replied
with quiet glee.
A single leaf
fell out of time.
It hit the dirt—
and rang like chime.

A gate appeared—
then turned to dust.
I bowed to space
and called it trust.
No fixed design,
no plan to prove—
just one small light
that knows how to move.

You are the pause
that feels like grace.
The hand I miss
but still can trace.
You never speak,
you never try—
a faithful guide
that watches sky.

So I keep walking,
wrong or right.
Just one more soul
inside your light.

You Think I’m Kidding?
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

Velvet noses hum through the rain,
A child in Rio sings to Spain.
Cinnamon air, a taxi flies,
Lanterns bloom in firefly skies.
You think I’m kidding?

The more we know, the less we fear,
Strangers turn to voices near.
Hands let go, the sky breaks wide,
Everything flows, we’re laughing inside.
For no particular reason.

A poet in Seoul spills ink like rain,
A painter in Paris dreams in cellophane.
No more worries, no more weight,
Everything shines, all aligns great.
What is happening?

New ideas dance like penguins,
Science, music, healing arts.
Laughter rises, trust runs deep,
One big family—wide awake,
Free from fu***ng dictators.

One day soon, no walls, no chain,
Just voices singing, light as rain.
I need to trim my nails.

“Are We Life Creating Itself?”
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

A child draws spirals
in the sand.
Waves erase them,
but not the joy
of drawing again.

The breeze drifts inland,
carrying laughter.
Pines lean to listen,
echoing waves.
The world turns softly,
as if remembering
how to begin.

The air itself
begins to listen.
Something unseen
presses close—
not light exactly,
but what light is made of.

The ones I’ve loved
are currents still,
moving through breath,
through wind, through will.
What changes is focus—
love keeps widening,
finding new form.

Beyond the seeing,
something listens.
It moves like light
through everything—
the quiet
that knows us whole.

The spirals return
in sand, in stars.
Born from within,
becoming real—
are we life
creating itself?

“Flicker at the Edge”
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

Sidewalk humming, whispers rise
Cars dissolve into distant sighs
A bus exhales, shadows glide
A glance, a world—then brushed aside

You are light, moving through air
A presence felt, always there
The breeze unwinds, the hour folds
A universe shimmers, soft and bold

Blue sky, golden glow, open air
A shadow blinks—was I ever there?
Okey dokey, time unwinds
Spring is calling, but leaves no signs

At the vanishing point, the air hums low
A door with no frame, nowhere to go

A flicker at the edge, a breath, a spark
Eternal beings in a world so stark

They have turned yellow,a quiet car of shadowsrides through leaf and sun.

They have turned yellow,
a quiet car of shadows
rides through leaf and sun.

Born From Within (Spoken)
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

A child draws spirals
in the sand.
Waves erase them,
but not the joy
of drawing again.

The breeze drifts inland,
carrying laughter.
Pines lean to listen,
echoing waves.
The world turns softly,
as if remembering
how to begin.

The air itself
begins to listen.
Something unseen
presses close—
not light exactly,
but what light is made of.

The ones I’ve loved
are currents still,
moving through breath,
through wind, through will.
What changes is focus—
love keeps widening,
finding new form.

Beyond the seeing,
something listens.
It moves like light
through everything—
the quiet
that knows us whole.

The spirals return
in sand, in stars.
Born from within,
becoming real—
are we life
creating itself?

“Try Less”
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

Behind closed eyelids,
a tiny world sings,
waiting to be felt.

Stillness is a trick
the universe plays
to remind us
we are it.

Words can only
go so far;
then silence
has to carry
what can’t
be spoken.

A child gave me
a broken marble.
It rolled
perfectly.

Today, try less.
Let wonder do
the heavy lifting.

Nothing is broken—
just beautifully
not finished
yet.

I gave the wind
my to-do list.
It folded it
into a bird
and flew away laughing.

The wind folded it
into a bird
and flew away laughing.

Song: “The Gut Knows”
Lyrics by Mario Caoile

We walk the same old road
Dust rising as we go
Different shadows fall
Where wildflowers grow
Your sky is not my sky

You stop to taste the rain
I ask the wind its name
You see a falling star
I see a flicker flame
And both of us walk by

Not every whisper’s meant for you
Not every path will carry through
I tried a borrowed map
It spun me back again
Now I follow
what sings within

A hush beneath the noise
A truth with no disguise
It hums just like a song
That’s older than the skies
But still lives in my skin

If it pulls
like tide on bone
If it shines
when you’re alone
You don’t need a reason—
just a yes

Not every whisper’s meant for you
Not every truth is shining true
I dropped the voices cold
and walked into the wind
Now I follow
what breathes within

We walk the same old road
But see it
brand new
each time
