There it is
A field so empty, so dry
Lonely and dying but searching for the sun,
Sun which was only good until the drought
Rain in sight but misinformed winds
Blowing life farther and farther away.
Here it goes
A hope so desperate, so true
Graceful and fresh but an empty promise,
Promise which told could bring a storm
Destruction of drought with delivering rain
Bringing life closer, closer to home.
Here we are
A pair so dry, so confushed
Searching and trying but always friends,
Friends who bring sacred rain for life
a gift undeserved but received in grace
Saving life slowly, slowly again.

It's the way you lose your breath when you see him,
The way your heart skips a beat when you hear his voice,
How you seem to fit in his arms so perfectly,
His hands will forever be fit for you.
It's the feeling in your stomach that you can't describe,
The fact that he's all you ever think about.
Everything you want, and everything you need,
All the words in the world couldn't decribe what you feel,
When you hear his voice on the other end of the line.
The worst day could become the best,
with just one laugh or smile,
Then just like that all your worries and fears disappear.
Into the deep of his eyes,
Along with everything that you said you would never let out.

The world has reached peak
but continues to rise
past adventures seem weak
through this holders eyes
who has suffered through lies
but seen through disguise
but still continues
Nearly one year since start
and hope always last
let 2 souls never part
not return to past
cold shadows and stares
and this world only shares
spilled blood and despair
but still continues
By this world i mean life
and my life at that
things never better
pleasurably trapped
trapped with her beauty
trapped with her smile
trapped with her love
and still continues

I shall stand here
winged and horned
bleeding and bruised
but not missing a beat
but i shall guard you
even if all gone
like a shadow, a scar
right there to remind
contridiction of the correct
and a false hope of wrong
but learning from past
for hopefull future
do not apologize
for mistakes of other
and i shant cry
over the past
i am done, now
but not forever
this is part one
and the rest will come
if only you wait
for the words

Wrapped Around Your Finger
you consider me the young apprentice
caught between the Scylia and Charibdes
hypnotized by you if i should linger
staring at the ring around your finger
i have only come here seeking knowledge,
things they wouldn't teach me of in college
i can see the destiny you sold
turned into a shining band of gold
i'll be wrapped around your finger
Mephistopheles is not your name
but i know what you're up to just the same
i will listen hard to your tuition
and you willl see it come to its fruition
i'll be wrapped around your finger
devil and the deep blue sea behind me
vanish in the air you'll never find me
i will turn your face to alabaster
then you will find your servant is your master
and you'll be wrapped around my finger

Do not undermine your worth,
By compairing yourself with others....
It is because we are all different,
That each of us is special....
Do not set your goals,
By what other people deem important....
Only you know what is best for you....
Do not take for granted,
The Things closest to your heart....
Cling to them as you would your life,
For without them,
Life is meaningless....
Do not let your life
Slip through your fingers,
By living in the past....
Nor for the future....
By living your life one day at a time,
You live all the days of your life....
Do not give up,
When you still have something to give....
Nothing is really over,
Until the moment you stop trying....
It is a fragile tread,
That binds us to each other....
Do not be afraid to encounter risks....
It is by taking chances,
That we learn how to be brave....
Do not shut love out of your life,
By saying it is impossible to find....
The quickest way to receive love is to give love;
The fastest way to lose love,
Is to hold it too tightly....
The best way to keep love is to give it wings....
Do not dismiss your dreams....
To be without dreams is to be without hope;
To be without hope is to be without purpose....
Do not run through life,
So fast that you forget....
Not only where you have been,
But also where you are going....
Life is not a race
But a journey to be savored,
Each step of the way....

Met a man locked away
for things he hadn't done
innocense on a ball and chain
never feel the sun
a grin on his face
roses in his hands
but when he smiled at me
i could understand
if you're free you'll never see the walls
if you're head is clear you'll never freefall
if you're out right you never fear the wrong
if you're head is high you never fear at all
there was a daughter of a man
took his life too young
she swore she'd never do those things
then did just what he'd done
and a boy whose gone insane
voices in his head
no one knows what they say
now his mothers dead
if you're free you'll never see the walls
if you're head is clear you'll never freefall
if you're right you never fear the wrong
if you're head is high you never fear at all
cuttin me down
cuttin me down
there was a man who had a face
it looked alot like me
i saw him in the mirror and i fought him in the street
then when he turned away i shot him in the head
then i came to realize i had killed myself
if you're free you'll never see the walls
if you're head is clear you'll never freefall
if you're right you never fear the wrong
if you're head is high you never fear
cuttin me down and
cuttin me down

The first time I saw you, you were chasin' down
A cyclone all alone in the field
With railyards and clovers, I kept rollin' on
Never thought you'd wind up chasin' me

In my hour of need
on the sea of grey
on my knees
i prey to you
help me find the bones of the dying dead
will you light my way
won't you light my way
the bullet is a man
from time to time he strays
i compare my life to theres
to this i remain
and unwilling to listen to your answers
and i'm not ashamed to tell you i need you today
won't you light my way
and so when i'm lost
and i'm tired and depressed
and when my mind goes astray
won't you light my way
don't save it for another day
hey! don't save it for another day
won't you light my way
