Satin surrounded in dark velvet air Deafening silence waits for a sound With a thunderlike entrance A glimmering silhouette edged by milky light prowls in with dancelike grace His firelike hair smolders in the subtle luminousy that creeps from where he had come His colored face reveals his icy intentions Through a pale, multifaceted smile and a spark in his eye As he turns his head to close the door his countenance is veiled with feminity His hand reaches up to sweep through his hair and lingers near his emerald studded ear Then, once again, his inexcapable gaze is diverted to you You're frozen Like prey in the eye of a predator You're captivated There's no turning back He climbs up onto the bed You can feel his breath against your cheek His hair brushes against your face And you are taken by the smell of styling mousse and perspiration As he kisses you neck, you fall back among the sheets He grabs your hands and kisses your mouth He tastes of lipstick and a hint of cigarrettes In the moonlight, his eyes seem to glow like a cat's He kisses your body and you can hear him breathing Deeply and rhythmically Desire takes control as you grasp his hair and then kiss him again And for one fatal moment Two songs become harmonic. |

I looked in the mirror today
There I saw your face You looked cold and forbidding Is your brain on ice? They say state your purpose, be brave, move on But with eyes like you've got That couldn't be done Draw from your scabbard The blade of your youth Hide in the shadows Run from the truth Never share your existance With your fellow man Be like the darkness There's no doubt you can You're a sorry excuse For the one you once were But on stage you are wonderful A capable liar Your deceitful trickery Poisons my mind It calls forth the animal Lurking inside Don't look into the crowd For your gaze turns to stone If you look out now You may see you're alone. |

How will I know when I've found you?
In the massive crowd, every face looks the same The expressions are so shallow, yet I know that inside it is so deep When I walk down the narrow streets Block after block, I think of you, yet your face is unclear. I sense you, yet I am alone. Occasionally, I catch the eye of a fellow wanderer during my journeys in the city, and I am filled with a cold emotion which cannot be described. How will I know when I've found you? If love is predestined, then surely you are there. If it is not, then indeed I am lost in an eternal sea of strangers with no one to ever retrieve me. I long for your gaze to fall upon me, especially on those nights when my heart feels like it is struggling to continue beating. During these times that I feel faint inside, I find myself envisioning you over the dancing flame of the candle in front of me. The wick becomes blurred, the picture dissolves, and as I see what appears to be a double image of it through my tearing eyes, the flames twist and turn and seem to reflect them. How will I know when I've found you? These eyes gaze deeply into mine, I feel enchanted by a power greater than anything that I have ever experienced. You are truly the Devil with an Angelic disguise. But when I blink, the picture becomes fuzzy again, and I awaken with only the afterthought of what I had seen. Reveal yourself to me, my secret one, for I am never to be yours unless I can know when I've found you. |  |

Of Stardust
The Power of the Infinite It lies subdued within Control the world around you Yet let it fall through your fingers It's Stardust, like you. Wanderer In search of an answer Or of a comfortable form It's impossible to contain you So you fly on with the wind Like Stardust. The brilliance never faded It simply crumbled beneath its own weight It becomes a part of everything Yet leaves a mark on nothing Such is Stardust Such is you. |  |

I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you sooner. These words that could break your heart Caused mine to bleed crimson Bittersweet melancholy tears I tried and tried, day after day When you would tell me that it would turn out all right, That our love was the strongest that two people Had ever felt Two people, two young lovers, full of adoration for each other but - At the same time Uncertainty and fear of letting the full meaning of our devotion show through… Not sure what it would really mean Once we saw what we really have become…together… God, looks like it’s been several years now That we’ve been trying to piece together this broken glass of courtship This mirror that reflects to me your untainted heart, my deepest reservations Not of you, you are bright sun and moonlight, but I am fading I do not know how much longer I can keep up with your illumination And so, one day, I just decided to try. To see if I was still capable of one pure, everlasting act To see if from my veins there still was capacity to flow testament to eternal love Maybe I couldn’t wait anymore For the train to pull in I had been standing at that cold, stormy, isolated station for ten years Longing to hear a sound signal that we could finally move on from our sorrows And spend the time with one another that I had only dreamt of It was semisweet music When I realized that it had all only been a dream That our separation was inevitable Tore my heart from its resting place I wanted to go with it. A sense of closure Bleak, ultimate end to turmoil of hidden desires Way to disappear and make things as they had been before I came onto this earth A true obliteration of Pain, agony that we’ve been unfairly forced to carry in our secreted love… I shouldn’t have left that so open. Now you’re confused…I’m confused… Don’t you see it, I am utterly lost without direction that you provide me… Yet… You never truly understand my meaning Even though our words are the same. Sometimes I feel that I’m speaking before a great crevice Each statement pushes me closer to the edge You, on the other side of the canyon You cannot hear me call over the sound of turbulent thunder and rain… Watch me approach the abyss with a look of innocent oddity Climate is much different where you are. Still, I have a lot to owe to you You provide me a shoulder to cry on dissolve beneath tears Your kindhearted eyes and soothing voice rejuvenate my soul Devoid of anything earthly for comparison Angelic, ethereal, mystifying Somehow, though, it doesn’t seem like enough. I feel vacant, empty inside The tears fall I can’t help but attribute to you Even though you could do no wrong In my blue-gray eyes My unmatched attachment to you causes inner destruction, depression Though I love you with very essence from my spirit’s core I am always looking for the sky Needing reassuring glow… Where have all the stars gone? You don’t understand why my eyes are averted up But you do it anyway. Is it really a gesture of love An attempt to find what is truly radiating from my mind, To see what I see in the shadowy heavenly expanse Or was it just to blend in? I should have told you sooner What I was really searching for up there Made you understand Scream top of my lungs did you ever hear it? You were too lost in your own thoughts. And you thought you knew me What good was it to listen Like reading the same book too many times Cover your ears and scream back Just to appease me I thought I heard you – Maybe I didn’t Maybe I’m all too familiar with what’s on that page already. Now I lay here thinking I should have tried harder Regrets tumble down my brain like winter spring unthawing Always, always trying harder Getting nowhere Life is so futile when efforts don’t accomplish anything but opposite of what you long for… It was a surprise when I actually got somewhere When I realized that silver plated stiletto obeys red flow of gravity That I could finally find religion Comfort in knowing that there is order here That I do have some control My uncertainties dissipated I suddenly realized, damn, What have I been thinking? But it had been so long So long Too long in the realizing it This profound revelation that took me lifetime to understand pools at my feet reminder of errors past engulfs me in graceful inevitability And no one will ever know Not even you God damn it, not even you |  |

Oh, Ziggy-Stardust-love They made your hair the wrong color A gray-black world of letdowns and humiliation In the empty blocks of an insipid street Where nothing seems real except divine presence Who were you playing guitar for, Ziggy? Nobody was there except your imagination You’re alone after a rain in the deserted alley K. West, as a matter of fact, in Technicolor nightfall Fans running rapid drugs flow through your veins You will make followers believe in you Or die in the torturing process that tears you apart from gut to brain What to do with those voices that keep you from sleeping Schizophrenia erupts drug prompted stress magnified eyes wide awestruck in bed -- Insomniac has answers to press questions but speaks garbled intoxicated language I can see it in your eyes, pain of centuries withers your immortal countenance Is it really so foreign, upside-down desires twist your mind in circles Newspaper calls you freak-fag-fairy-alien-life-form I’ve been there too, reading along with you the whole way I know what’s happening to you inside Living in constant fear of not being misunderstood How it takes you from me day by day to be strong then break down like clockwork On the hour, every hour, trauma waits for you in the wings For every tear you shed I shed them too Give me your hands, you’re not alone Why can’t things be left as they are in their own perfections Until world corrupts them piece by piece My heart is breaking too, with every change you make Break away from purity to be pop culture’s idol icon Conforming… Demigod damning god for making it so hard to prove the star-man-assassin that you saw last night Sourceless voices mount in choruses warn of tragedy in back of your mind You’re afraid to go on stage again No one understands ya but I do And if I could protect you from this torture I would Shield your milky skin with stardust moondust Oh but I wasn’t even born yet Me nineteen-year-old woman trapped in twenty-first century You-androgynous-everlasting-age-twenty-three-in-nineteen-seventy-four If only my birthday had coincided with yours What’ve happened then? Would you have heard my name Known my voice Sung together Seen me smile Held my hand? Would we’ve been sufficient support for each other Through turmoil that later falls upon us… This we’ll never know. Who was in that apartment you were waiting for? Derelict bricks peeling paint among boxes of memories That’s the garbage, love, not you Remembrance of multitudes of morons wading through mainstream muck Claiming to understand musical meaning where there is none Living for songs without depth full of lies to inflate ignorant egos Nothing but rubbish hand-rolled-weed-smoked-stoned-claims-at-knowledge-that exist-only-in-imagination-where-overdosed-eyes-roll-back-breathing-slows-everything-makes-sense-‘cept reality They must escape from what they can’t handle You don’t want this kind of audience Don’t give a bloody thought to their ignorance Step away from that refuse and scream through building windows Teach us the stories of what we do at night Take what’s useable, run like hell To eat or be eaten, to destroy or be destroyed A society of arrogant consumers Watching own backs Spiraling down to self-demise Though many pretend to not hear you, can’t help but listen And if they don’t internalize it weren’t worth salvation You tell us our lives with glance and smile Sadistic smile with fatalistic intentions Hip cocked, eyes locked, here to disturb us To clarify myths we fear to see past Murderers-rapists-abusers-addicts-cynics-scapegoats-sarcasm-wastes of air and space Hence your lyrics predict we deserve horrific end constructed for ourselves. Yes, I can see this now, clear as chords in smoky, polluted twilight. Come for me, take me with you Far away from social constructs To form own perception-of-world-media-insinuations-absent I long to know your every thought revelation But will you ever forgive that torment Locked in gray phone booth K.West Grant to me this mysterious refuge Let me out, let me in Out of restless loneliness, into your divine arms Aching for comfort your sandpaper voice provides Slip in your CD close my eyes shed my tears The misunderstood understand one another. |  |

You, tyrant Uprising impending dictatorship And I, hero Valiant courageous redeemer Small-town-boy-blonde-thin-wanderer-learned-to-use-a-sword-oh-my You dropped me off the ledge From pinnacle of tallest tower of greatest castle your malevolent mind fathoms, illegitimate fortune constructs See how I do not break? I am too strong for that. Only suicides fall and don’t come back. I have seen my share of abuse Don’t get me wrong. My hands show calluses, scars from hours of training My limbs are bruised, my clothing torn Reminiscent profusions of interludes with your inferior underlings My eyes are sharp, senses keen Used to many nights in cold dark forest Though inside I am small and weak Never having found my own path Always striking in from the shadow On behalf of another The good of the whole What of my needs To find one who can share in this Burden that I have thus carried alone But I must pretend that I am strong Stronger than all An icon of accomplishment Moment of triumph Unlikely winner. You like to see me fall from towers Time after time Knowing I’ll come back for more Wondering beneath twisted smile grotesque heart how much abuse can I withstand It brings you excitement A perverted sense of arousal adrenaline assertion arrogance Anything to get you out of the norm From your usual everyday regimen Of conquering those devoid of such tenacity I know exactly how you feel. Trust me, I do it all the time. In my mind there is an end to the road There awaits my lady Her hair sunlight Her smile uplifting Her eyes pools of compassion She calls my name voice renewing strength And in secret for her I go on. So you see, in a way we are both madmen. Imaginations distorting reality For no one waits for me, the road endless And nothing waits for you, your reign shall come to an end And you will be without anything Just like me Only I know the secrets of the scheming labyrinth. After years of trial and error, your conundrums are made of glass. Only I know the secrets of the prolific darkness. After years alone, the dark and I befriended on common ground. Only I know the secrets of the shrieking underworld. Screeching loudly does not constitute strength. And because of this, I have you defeated. Sure, I have had my small hours, my bad dreams, my sloppy scavenges. I have also seen many a doomsday come and go. In this valley of silicon and empty space I stand pondering your next move In this expanse symbolic of my soul I have learned to trust no one It takes more than just my mind to make sense of what I see An ambiance of oneness with surroundings Developed over time Caught off guard Learn from mistakes Remember, apply Failure not tolerated Take nothing for granted I don’t understand it but it makes me nervous Sensations crawl over me without basis in logic As if my entire body is predicting what is to come And you are waiting for me still At the tower top Long have I anticipated this confrontation It has burned on my brain since the day I was born My senses declare This will be your final hour. With the glint of my sword your blood will flow free And the world will be free because of my endeavor I cannot fear what I do not acknowledge So body and mind split apart Motions flow from subconscious awareness Heart beats for lady of gold. Mind forgets danger. Although I can’t remove emotions from perception To notice them gives insight to tactics Subliminal control Alertness spills over me like icy water Allowing me to perform optimum level My heart pounds for the woman I’ll never see And your hands tremble as you feel the blow How can this be so? You were strong, and I was weak But I was practiced and you were perceptive This time experience has won I return to haven in the woods And the world will not forget me Until next time |  |

So boring way up here Wind ruffles my cloak Castle top view of quaint kingdom dominated I got it all with wave of Magic Wand Command armies of scoundrels Filthy fabulous fans that obey my every Beck and call They rejoice at my booming command crying “Hail to King Koopa, most vile of villains ruler of slime, muck and little mushroom cities” Domed houses tan-peach red-capped shrunken windows My power lies in slithering spells slip from the lips of sidekick Kamek And so you see it’s all too easy Get toadstools upturned townsfolk tied up And Princess is mine, glittering prize Trophy for day’s work battle plans But Princess don’t want someone like me Though my pungent presence is hard to ignore I can’t hide that something more draws me to her Yet to show her this weakness would unmake what I’ve strived to become Cold-heartless-leader-scaled-skinned-reptile-eyes-yellow-black-onyx-menace-with-passion-for-destruction-and-blue-bug-covered pizza So… it’s never been the concept of ruling a village No joy in conquering ignorant submissives No my anger’s directed to battles without treaties Princess falls into my temp’rary trap But she’s got countless contacts Confound it Mario that pure-hearted plumber and his potbellied blundering brother Luigi They distract pink-laced-costumed-prima-donna from seeing past the primacy I portray And I’m getting real annoyed with the same old same old Kidnap lady terrorize town malevolent laughter blah blah blah And then sit around and wait like I’m doing now I know Mario’s probably stomped all my goombas My koopaling army’s been dealt a death blow Through oceans of lava and labyrinths of stone He prevails through it all - heck, I know this story I’ve been through it countless times, we all know the ending “Good” vs. “Evil” so I get to lose Someone sure has a sick sense of humor I just sigh roll my eyes look impatiently at my Koopa green musical synthetic watch Can we get this over with? I know any minute he’ll blast through that door The infamous pudgy plumber in red-blue overalls Will clobber my Kingly crown from its crest Although I’ll pretend to put up a “fair” fight In reality just playing to break the monotony And I’ll lie still as Mario “rescues” the Princess From her “horrible” cell Silk curtains plush carpet magnificent view And the tiny town will cheer their return The Princess and plumbers have saved us are back “we owe them our thanks” Yeah whatever not listening I’m too busy devising next plan will be The one to show her the truth With him she’s a Princess but With me she’d be Queen. |  |

“What does it mean when a person is such a pacifist that they get shot? I can never understand that.” – John Lennon I thought they would have listened When you said “they’re gonna crucify me” Man I know audience was deaf from the blasting guitars We couldn’t tell what song we were playing but didn’t they hear a thing All that crap You sat there night after night after night Finding perfect tunes entertaining “friends” on the edge of a wine glass That didn’t mean a thing. I thought you were gonna kill yourself over some drugs, John – a handful of crumpled-crank-hippie-music strewn across maroon napkins from some filthy pub in the middle of Liverpool that you couldn’t wait to get down onto something less solid Longing to go down as infamously screwed up And you hated yourself for it, I hated us all for putting you through it hated us for not letting you have the kind of drug that would have taken away your pain But we couldn’t go on without psychedelic song-leader Couldn’t let the press photograph beyond your hair-craze and your glasses-fad the destruction in your eyes was enough to make America sink into a sea of utter desperation like we did in Yellow Submarine Torpedo-hit-crash-and-boom And realize why you rarely smiled Except when you saw Yoko-Ono-female-mirror-image-of-yourself Long-black-hair-skin-of-hazel and diamonds-in-her-eyes And that’s why they hated her Maybe we did too. My body shook from the overdose of notes and poetic nonsense that people couldn’t wait to revere that you had forced yourself to vomit onto the lackluster street from the back of a black limousine as we fled from the eternal crowds that engulfed us like multicolored suffocation No one ever took you seriously. It was they who had made us bigger than Christ, and Christ, man what the hell were we supposed to do about it? What did they want from us, just a couple of young buggers from different cities different backgrounds different lives trying to pull it all together to impress each other again and again and again Growing older than Rey del Sol ritzy restaurant silver spoon collections Escaping through basement trap-doors, toilet apertures To get away from the crowds screaming Beatles will never die Legends don’t live forever. You never realized it was me walking down the road middle of the night with lots of lonely people crying out to the bimbo reporters the lipstick-flaunting-seventeen-year-olds the naughty-haughty hookers the coughing-crying cabbies the slick-and-suspicious stoners the freak-and-foolhardy fanatics trying to watch your back John. But Christ, man, did you have to step right out there and scream your defeat? I know didn’t see man with gun but you let bullet kill you. And now I’m sixty-five and everything’s one big failed audition My life went up the stairs and back down Cigarette in my hand burning as I wait for endless rain on the side of a damp and desolate curb to drown me in the aftereffect of fame Wondering what happened to the rest of the gang Harrison lost to cancer, Starr stayed at his side Hadn’t seen either for several years If our songs had ended properly – I still play my piano same tunes not same without you Hope to discover what would’ve happened if blackbird didn’t fly And if we should’ve let despondent songs end happily ever after And if you forgive me for the shite that we bled from together Had it been one big mistake to pick up that howling guitar one day and try our luck gig in the middle of a bar with some mop-haired-drop-out mates Death song for childhood, end-of-the-line Spiraling downward toward this lack of closure I never apologized for it Damn sure I’ll carry that with me for a long time. |  |
From Step Through The Looking Glass, Liquid Vision I:
|
Where truth is false Where love is hate You can’t get enough but still hesitate Where black is white Where life is death The atmosphere is poisonous so take a breath Where trust is broken Where sin is good Don’t ever say a word when you know you should Where touch repels you Where up is down You think you’re getting higher when you’re on the ground Chorus: Reversed reflection It calls to you Total distraction Is nothing new Until your world is crystal blue Primal reaction pulls you through Where pain is chosen Where water is wine Just speak this phrase each day and it will turn out fine Where lust is smoking Where darkness falls Just let yourself be taken by these living walls The storm is coming The sky has gone Sit down in the mud and take in the sun Your eyes are lidless Your brain exposed Now cover up with shame so that no one knows The demons restless Your veins explode Suicidal tendencies that never showed A peace surrounds you Disturbing calm Echoes of redemption in a wasted psalm You’re buried deeply Put looked away And madness overwhelms you as you hear them say He found the road But lost the path His consciousness was killed by his own sick wrath |  |
|
Time crawls by at record speed That extra moment’s all you need The second hand lets the clock bleed It seems like I just saw you here Time elapsed is still unclear You use your charm to pull me near Chorus: What takes you years destroyed in days What takes you days is like a maze What takes you hours – just a phase When you don’t care it’s just a haze What takes you years destroyed in days What takes you days is like a maze What takes you hours – just a phase When you don’t care it’s just a haze It’s been ten years but just a night Your surreal kiss puts me in flight The seconds past perfect hindsight I should have never let you in A mistake ends as one begins I try and try but never win It all goes by with nothing gained The pounding ticks impact my brain Relentless noise drives me insane The nights are short, the days are long The time I’d kept completely wrong Fate decides I don’t belong | |
|
Look into your face I see Behind your eyes lies mystery Dreamers lost but never free Words come through but tumble down Meaning lost, new meaning found Chorus: Smiles twist as smiles lie Corruption deep but cast aside Dream again don’t lose your stride (Break away) Corruption eats away inside Behind your mask you try to hide Until what’s left of you has died (Break away) Each day I dare to keep you near That distorted voice I’ve learned to fear Speaks a tongue I cannot hear Mangled mind and broken soul I can’t hang on but I can’t let go Dance with me this newfound way Take three steps then break away What went wrong I cannot say Words screamed through come crashing down Tears unleashed destroy the ground We are the mirror | |
|
You play me up then let me down Depression’s a familiar sound You stab my back but hang around You want to see me cry You feign a trust then break my heart My world dissolves, I fall apart Loving you is a poison dart You want to see me cry Chorus: Wherever I was certain, now I’m full of doubt You turn my love inside out You enter in and then walk out You turn my love inside out I take your hand but nothing’s there How can fate be so unfair Our thoughts are one but never shared You want to see me cry A stranger here in my own room My bed becomes a frozen tomb What should be pure brings subtle doom You want to see me cry It’s all the same so just speak plain The points you make go down the drain And disappear like falling rain You want to see me cry You locked the door, I lost the key I’m going down, come back to me A nightmare runs this fantasy You want to see me cry | |
|
Like cherry candy, sugar dream Like melted chocolate on ice cream Don’t need a taste You’re all the drug I need Like mega motion, supreme speed After the work to then be free Don’t need the rush You’re all the drug I need Chorus: I’m riding on a glitter rainbow Stars a thousand fireflies Fluorescent flowers all surround me Your touch is a lasting high Like rocker glamour, music loud Sandpaper voices, love this sound Don’t need the beat You’re all the drug I need Like ocean waves, big city lights Expand the mind with such delights Don’t need the shock You’re all the drug I need Like breaking out, ideal vacation A magical destination Don’t need the trip You’re all the drug I need Prizes won, a lucky break That perfect shot you get to take Don’t need the charm You’re all the luck I need | |
|
It’s kept inside and no one knows Asphyxiation doesn’t show Until at last your head explodes What would set you free? Chorus: Don’t ask why Don’t waste your time This world’s a joke, ain’t worth a dime All think their shit is so sublime Don’t give a damn ‘bout grand designs A bottled thought that churns within Can’t hold it back, I fall again Hostile migraine won’t decline Sudden death, what would set you free? Pain enough for a hundred years Emerging all my hidden fears Weeping insufficient tears Take the plunge, what would set you free? You may look but never see Whirlpool faith inside of me I can’t survive this misery Giving up, what would set you free? | |
|
Perfected poses Correct the flaws If something’s wrong It’s not your fault Constantly searching Until you find your scapegoat Backfired plan It wasn’t you So put the blame On someone new You bite your nails Until you find your scapegoat One big disaster Nothing to you You wash your hands And rest at ease Your stress relieved Once you find your scapegoat It went awry It’s no big deal You roll your eyes Ignore it all Don’t make the call Go and find your scapegoat (All you can find to win now) | |
|
Don’t look at me that way How could you know what I feel? You take me as you want But never know who I am Chorus: Yeah I’m different from the norm What a profound observation Yeah I’m separate from the whole And I need no explanation (I’m not going to apologize for living in my own way) Don’t turn your head away It doesn’t change a thing You put me in my place But don’t know where I belong You barely scratch the surface Your assumptions are profane You straighten up and look me down And I’m supposed to care? | |
|
Does anyone here speak English? Am I making any sense at all? Do you understand the words that I say Or am I talking to a wall? Chorus: No quiero hablar contigo No quieres encontrarte conmigo No entiendes las palabras que yo digo Por los siglos de los siglos… It’s like a whole new generation With a whole new status quo Inventing their own language That outsiders cannot know It’s the power of the power An outcast’s darkest hour You shut up and you cower As society as goes sour It’s like IQ’s are in the toilet No one speaks their mind Follow the leader nothing’s easier Obey the daily grind | |
|
How can something so right go so wrong? How can something so good feel so bad? How can I just let it go, I just cannot see And all I want to know is How can I just give you up like that? Chorus: When I hold you It’s like a dream Taking the word To the extreme Ache to be near you But you’ll never know Can’t make it work But I just can’t let you go How can something perfect be so flawed? How can something strong make me feel so weak? How can I just get over it, I just cannot see And all I want to know is How can I just give you up like that? How could something lifting slam me to the floor? How can romance butterflies make my stomach turn? How can I just detach from it, I just cannot see And all I want to know is How can I just give you up like that? How can pure emotion be so bittersweet? How can something easy get so complex? How can I just forget it all, I just cannot see And all I want to know is How can I just give you up like that? | |
|
Breakdowns play with all my thoughts I can’t remember who I am This plague they call insanity I think I’ll just enjoy the ride Chorus: This song’s for you I don’t know who And though I try I don’t know why Don’t ask me stuff Just let me go My mind’s a mess That’s all I know Freaking out is kind of fun I can’t remember where I am A slightly warped mentality Just sit back, enjoy the ride So everyone’s afraid of me I can’t recall the year or date The screws are loose but I don’t care Just smile, enjoy the ride You told me some useful advice I can’t remember what you said A tornado’s in my head So I’ll just laugh, enjoy the ride | |
|
We think we’re building our way up When really we’re just spiraling down We’re dreaming high up in the clouds But pour our reason down the drain Chorus: Why do we even bother? I just can’t see the point It all seems so futile We can’t escape our past mistakes (Who do we think we are?) Bridge: A frightening thought writhes inside And it questions each and every thing Give me a break, did you ever stop to think What if it’s all another way? We’re on an egotistic high Despite the fact that we’re so blind Our priorities are all confused You get ahead by looking down How can we think that we’re the best? That we’re the center of it all Coasting superficial tides Truth runs deeper than that pool We make it shine and make it fast Then pat each other on the back You know it’s just a piece of crap Built to last but in the trash | |
|
I know I should be somewhere different Spending time on something significant Overwhelming flood that just won’t relent I just can’t do it anymore Chorus: It’s like I spend my whole life running But I don’t know where I’m going Everything is always something It’s really starting to get to me I just get done, it starts all over again Engagements tumble like falling rain This thing called life is such a pain Just can’t do it anymore A million things housed in my mind A personal life is hard to find Murphy’s Law is never kind Just can’t do it anymore It gets so bad I want to scream Nothing’s ever as it seems Can’t escape, but it’s nice to dream Just can’t do it anymore | |
From Coup D'etat, Liquid Vision II:
|
The night will come The tears will fall My mind’s on you And that is all Chorus: Days go by Echo like the wind Another day begins Come take me away Don’t leave me this way Free me like the breeze Give me all I need Can’t go through life Without your grace My light is gone Without a trace Find the soul That I once knew I held it near But gave it to you You’re all I have All I desire But burning hot Love lost fire Engulfing flame Your lips on mine Try to get by But die each time |  |
|
Don’t put your faith inside my mind Nothing left to explain A hundred thoughts before my eyes They steal my hope away Chorus: Keep falling Dark calling It’s just a long way down (Keep your head high and don’t look down) There’s nothing That’s something No other way around (Or you might see you’ve hit the ground) Don’t lay your hand upon my heart And tell me that it’s ok Although you’ll try, forever cry And one step off the edge Don’t trace your lips across my mouth And speak the lovers tongue Something so pure cannot endure Within my poisoned soul Don’t pull me in but cast me out Then hold me in your arms It’s all a blur and so unsure Dissolve into your words Dry your eyes; more tears will come And blood will yearn for truth A wasted touch that means so much It still won’t change a thing | |
|
Let me be Or set me free Don’t play this game with me Although I heard You say the words Answers formed seem so absurd Chorus: How can I When you won’t try? To mend this love All I think of You want my words To cool the pain But you won’t speak It’s all in vain I can’t explain My body slain Nothing brings you back again Don’t want to know It sometimes shows A drug that pulls an all time low Visions dance Depression’s trance That your eyes only can enhance Corrosive tears Burn all these years Provoking all my hidden fears | |
|
There’s more behind my eyes Than you have ever seen More burns within my mind Than you have ever dreamt More death dwells inside my soul Than you have ever feared More illusions pass before your sense Than you can comprehend Chorus: Take it from me ‘Cause I would know Been through it all There is no shock The world is fading And I am waiting The final blow is bound to come Time runs faster than your pace And you’ll never catch up now More futility in your works Than you can tolerate I’ve seen more worlds in melded ways Than you could ever imagine More possibilities flourish in this place Than you could understand Only I know what hopeless is Don’t dare to stand to me You’ll never see the weight I bear You’d crush between the stones Only I have seen the road at night While you were in your bed It’s something destined as my fate The portrait turns to dust | |

Do I melt into your world? Disappear into the light Blend in with all the rest Fade into the night Bridge: Nothing I say Nothing I do Makes it real Chorus: You are my puppeteer And I your marionette My words are from your scripts Material old as night My motions are dramatic They’re seen before they happen I can’t survive on my own I know I’ll freeze in place So I leave it to you To take the strings I’ll follow in your footsteps My loyalty unending So who needs understanding? My tears cannot be real I have no need for emotion ‘Cause puppets cannot feel You hear a voice But it’s not mine You feel the touch Of someone else You gaze into my eyes But don’t see me I’m just a veil You hide behind I’m just a shell For your imagination I’m just what remains For you to pretend Vanished in your memory But pleasantly familiar You don’t see me You see yourself | |
|
You kill me every day A little more of me withers Permitted massacre This murder I’m aware of My mind in self-destruct My thoughts a torturous frenzy My soul poisons my blood My heart can’t shatter more Bridge One: And I know The trust is gone The motions feigned The destruction’s done It can’t be fixed Bridge Two: And I know It was over long ago It never began But was planned all along It’s meant to be Come on I’m waiting for you Chorus: It’s an open wound that never heals Try to keep it safe from further pain But I can’t withstand this starving force Rips me apart from inside out But yet these things repeat Each day it’s worse The madness grows I’m losing my grip Where are you now? You watch me fall Though your eyes are closed You hear my scream | |

There’s nothing like your touch To pull me away To break me from monotony That seizes the day There’s nothing like your smile To play with my heart To give me faith in all I do And hope from the start Bridge: It’s all I need There’s no one else To take my hand And lead me to the Promised Land Chorus: And now I’m flying Like a shooting star My spirit’s soaring Like never before Into the heavens and beyond the moon And I gotta see you again real soon There’s nothing like your voice To ease all my pain You sing away my sorrows Until no hurt remains There’s nothing like your laughter To rekindle my soul You fill me up with purity And let my true light show There’s nothing like your eyes To show me the truth Never need to hide From your love springs new youth There’s nothing like your trust To give me my strength Your support reaches out to me With unending length | |

No one I can turn to Unless I pay a price Only charity I see Is my own sacrifice Nothing holds the answers Cannot find the key Do unto others As they do unto me Chorus: My heart wails the same song each day (Why don’t you hear me calling?) My eyes plead the same case each night (Why don’t you hear me crying?) Everybody claiming it’ll be all right But they don’t know what they’re saying So I’ll just keep on praying A little silent whisper of my own salvation There is a lot of babble Everybody talks the talk But as quicksand envelops me No one walks the walk They smile to your face Then stab you in the back Absence of trust’s the only Defense from this attack They meet you and they greet you Pretend to be your friend But cleaned out of kindness Is all you get in the end So I’ll never know the pleasure Of a real life fairy tale My life’s too full of potholes - And assholes as well | |

Too much is barely enough Starvation’s what we crave Shame becomes the weight we bear Until we’re lying in our graves Bridge: But it doesn’t change each day I think it might be getting better But it’s not And with the way that things are going You’ll never be worth more than What you’ve got Chorus: Get out of my head Get out of my mind Not much left inside except what you hope to find Get out of my eyes Get off of my case So much damage I can’t erase Nothing simple but the rules They don’t have time to satisfy The mirror is destruction’s tool Thou shall not covet but thou shall buy Live your life in misery They sure like to see you suffer that way Never see reality make the news They’re too busy choking on what to say They cannibalize your image Then vomit on the street They smack you on the ass As they slap you on the cheek I don’t know where I stand But I have no place to sit Don’t matter what I’m thinking But, God, I hope I’m stronger than this shit | |

Sometimes you’re the thunder Sometimes you’re the sky Sometimes you’re the tear within my eye Chorus: For good or bad Things keep on going It’s all or nothing now Sometimes you’re the ashes Sometimes you’re the flame Sometimes you’re what my doubts became Sometimes you’re the puzzle Sometimes you’re the key Sometimes you’re all that’s left of me Sometimes you’re my temple Sometimes you’re my crypt Sometimes you’re what I should have kept Sometimes I’m confusion Sometimes agony I can’t understand you, you can’t understand me | |
|
Chorus: Wait my love Wait my love I’ll be coming Sometime soon The whole world is turning My head is spinning Lost in the circles I feel so dizzy The whole world is churning Dazed from the motion I can’t go on longing No end in sight The whole world is crying My heart is stumbling No one before me Nothing ahead of me | |

This is what they mean by free Going out of control With no direction all ways are down And all have no way out Bridge One: Keep one eye on the game Keep batting the same Hair loose in the rain Feel nothing but pain Bridge Two: Take your drink and throw it away Take your piece, come what may Take your drink and throw it away Throw it away Chorus: ‘Cause you’re an American Because you can Ain’t no one to stop you No one gives a damn Dance on ice above the fire Else each day is such a drag Don’t take away my personal pride Easier just to throw it out Bombarded individuality Is it a virtue or a defense? Hell knows I’ve got things on my mind Bet you know what I’m thinking Bet you know Bet you know Don’t you? ‘Cause you’re an American ‘Cause you’re an American | |

Chorus: How can I tell you when words are written backwards? I’ve learned to keep inside these walls You’ll just have to learn to deal Echoed love Not a let down Nothing less than I expected You cannot lose if I cannot win So don’t hide your pride beneath my shame There’s nothing that I couldn’t show you But something makes me refrain Bridge: I speak the truth, you make me lie When I look up can’t see the sky But nothing’s there, my vision clear You call the storm, I find the door Hide in the dark when no one’s home Live in the closet when I’m with you I run along, you trip me up Can’t break away, I guess I’ll stay Can’t say the same when you call my name It’s purely torn and I am worn Can’t make an escape, I guess I’ll wait My patience gone, a shell remains Not a heartbreak Should be used to this by now I see no point despite your common sense So don’t keep yourself from singing There’s not a phrase you can’t complete My head goes down, my soul retreats | |
From In Time, Liquid Vision III:
|
Every time I see you I have to walk away
These things
Every time I see you I fall apart
These things
Every time I see you I have to say goodbye
These things | |
|
Chorus:
Why
Can you see through the glass
Bridge:
Do you see who I was? | |
|
Take my hand and I’ll show you
Sometimes I envision another world Chorus:
There are no answers to endless enigmas
Try to see it from where I stand
Fortune is not what we’d like to think | |
|
Fleeting time
Chorus:
Empty space (Chorus)
Bridge 1:
Qué será? Bridge 2:
I gotta believe there’s something out there (Chorus) (Bridge 1) (Bridge 2) (Chorus)
