Innocence
Some days I just don't know
Some days I dont want to wake up
and face my world covered in bloody snow
The tears of innocence shed in my path
Writing the story no one can know.
It hurts to see the pain
Caused by the people and things
That cannot be swept away by the rain.
How did this happen, how did it get so bad?
When will it stop, when can I return?
Why am I crying, why am I always so sad?
I just want the smiles back,
I just want to stop being so mad.
My life doesnt make sense anymore,
I've never felt this lost
Can anyone tell me how to get back....
How to get to Sesame Street?
Her Pain
Their expectations are so high
She'll reach and climb for each goal they set
But no matter how hard she will try
Life will deal her a deadly blow
send her flying from the sky.

In each moment she aims to please
to do her best to achieve what they want,
To set their many minds at ease.
Her little fragile heart is hurting,
Is there not one who will see?

chorus:  They all know her face,
            They all know her name
             They all know what she needs,
            They all lead her to their claim to fame.
             They all line up to give advice,
             They all know when to place the blame
             But does anyone see her pain?

Everyday there's so much to do
Swim across the Atlantic, paint the sky blue.
Maybe tomorrow she'll find a cure for cancer,
Or split an atom in two.

repeat chorus

They all know my face, They all know my name
They all know exactly what I need,
They all lead me to their claim to fame,
They all line up to give me advice,
They all know it's me to blame.

Won't someone know my pain,
feel my pain, help this pain within?
Or perhaps tomorrow, I will be my guide
and instead of cancer, I will cure me inside.
Freedom and Justice

We look on today.
Disbelief at the display
Of our mighty country under attack
How can we hide our dismay?

The towers tumbled down.
We all listened to the sound
Of our innocent people crying out
How can we not mourn for them now?

Justice will reign one day.
For this terror, our enemies will pay
So we send our soldiers out to get revenge
How can we do anything but pray?

Trust is what we need.
To survive this terrible deed.
Belief in our country's faith and love
Freedom and justice shall remain our creed.

Just One Moment

The moment I saw you
The second you first held me,
In that brief meeting I knew
That you and I were meant to be.

From long talks deep into the night,
The good-mornings and midday smiles
You provide me with all I need
Our love extends beyond the miles

I don't know what our future holds,
But I do know that for the rest of our days
I promise only to love you true
For today, tomorrow, and always.
Far Away

Distance makes the heart grow fonder -
That's what they all say
I do long for you more than ever,
I just wish you weren't so far away

My feelings are stronger than before
I think about you everyday
I would love you like there's no tomorrow
If only you weren't so far away.

A picture paints a thousand words -
but not in the same wonderful way
That you would whipser them,
If you weren't so far away

In your arms I will be,
At my side you will lay.
Happiness will fill my life,
When you're not so far away.

Summer 1998
Rain

Raindrops on my windowsill
Blend with the innocent tears
Of one whose heart is broken
See all the pieces lying here.

Rain Rain pouring down
Reaching upwards to the sound
Sweet Sweet pitiful rain
You norish my thoughts and you water my brain.

Water rests on tear stained cheeks
Her eyes fall upon the clouds
Darkness finds a place inside
And promises to bring all she needs.

Rain Rain pouring down
Falling downwards to the ground
Hard Hard beautiful rain
You norish my roots and you water my brain.

Raindrops, water, rhythm, harder
A need that grows from deep inside
Comes like a hurricane to my mind
Floods that come after the rain
Lull my thoughts and dull my pain.
It used to be beautiful
As we lay down at night
Letting it slip into the horizon with a smile,
Knowing everything was right.
Days, weeks, months, it stayed true
Awaking, the brightness piercing the abyss
Satisfying the deep need inside
Who knew it would die like this.
One day, abruptly, far too soon
Down it went, deep into the blue
So harsh, so sudden...
And so went the end of me and you
.
FINAL SUNSET
Oh, fallen angel, today is your day
You filled me with joy, now it's time to repay
Now reach up and take it, no time to delay
Here are your wings, now go, fly away
To places where pain no longer can lay
Forever in peace, happily you shall stay.
Why not, fallen angel, how long have you prayed?
Fret not, fallen angel, your debts have been repaid
Those in need have had your gracious aid.
We know, fallen angel, of mends you have made
From the minds of loved ones you shall never fade
But go, fallen angel, why have you stayed?
To help and to hold me?  My angel,  please go
When you'll get this chance again, I do not know
How can you stay down with us here below?
Love?  My angel, that you do show
Please, my angel, take your wings, let yourself grow
No?  Oh my sweet angel how I do love you so.
