Once Again 

-A song for Scully upon losing Mulder

A deep truth I've never noticed before
Oh, how it ripped us apart
It swallows my soul because I'm still not sure
If I should fear the very beat of my heart
It seeps through my skin
It bubbles out, then comes right back in
Can't you come back
Won't you come back
Once again
Say you love me
Once again
You're thinking of me
Like the rain on my window
Shadowed and simple
When will you be free
Come back here to me
Once again
Little beads of sweat form into tears
When I think about all of those years
How could something you wanted so bad
Leave me alone, leave you so sad
When will the truth never hurt anyone
We've never done nothin' wrong
Will you ever come back
To the place you belong
Once again
Say you love me
Once again
You're thinking of me
Like the rain on my window
Shadowed and simple
When will you be free
Come back here to me
Once again
{Bridge}
You told me to be strong
You said we'd make it through
But how can I hang on
When what I've been hangin' on
Is so far gone
Once again
Say you love me
Once again
You're thinking of me
Like the rain on my window
Shadowed and simple
When will you be free
Come back here to me
Once again

Ode to Special Agent Scully

How you run so swiftly in high heels
Following faithfully your sly Fox
Gun drawn, hair endlessly perfect
In your quest for the Truth.

Letting snippets of your wit 
Slip through the cracks
In the midst of briefings 
And near brushes with death

I think that there has never been
A woman that looked so perfect in scrubs
Hands sunk deep into a cadaver
Scalpel shining in your gloved hands

A lovely smile, too rarely seen
A laugh rarer still
Would you giggle if tickled
Or return with a left hook?

I Want To Believe

(verse one)
I've been led blindly
by the paths of unreal dreams
cant be sure of anything
or so everything seems
but i think i see it all
right in front of me
i keep on reaching out
but i cant get anything

(chorus)
it's all right inside my head
but can i be sure
of the the things i used to think
but i know the truth is out there
and i know now
that i want to believe

(verse two)
I go and chase the unknown
every night and day
only with my partner in crime
i push everything else away
now i know i see it all
right in front of me
i keep on reaching out
but i cant get anything.

(chorus)

What's the Time?

"What's the time?" Asked the enthusiastic girl to Scully on the bench, 
"Ten fifteen" Said Scully on the bench. 

The enthusiastic girl walked away. 
A similar looking girl walked to the bench and sat down. 

"What's the time?" Asked the jolly girl to Scully on the bench, 
"Half past ten" Said Scully to the jolly girl on the bench. 

The jolly girl walked away. 
A similar looking girl walked to the bench and sat down. 

"What's the time?" Asked the curious girl to Scully on the bench, 
"Are you going to ask me this all day?" Asked Scully, "didn't you just ask me that?" 

The curious girl walked off smiling politely. 
A similar looking girl walked to the bench and sat down. 

A moment of silence passed. 

"What's the time?" Asked the happy girl to Scully on the bench, 

"I'm sorry to seem impolite, but why can't you ask somebody else what the time is? I can't be here all day telling you." Said Scully on the bench. "There's a clock over there, you know?" Said Scully on the bench as she pointed to the clock. 

"Oh" Said the happy girl on the bench. "Thanks." 

The happy girl walked off. 

The enthusiastic girl, the jolly girl, the curious girl and the happy girl walked up to Scully on the bench. They smiled at her. 

They walked off and left Scully on the bench with eyebrows up high. 

"Time to file some X-Files, I think" Said Scully as she got up and headed for the FBI building. Her eyes rolled and her body sighed as usual.
