Lost At Sea

My dear,

I see you there

searchin' for somethin',

we're lost at sea.

Don't know why you're there

in front of me

on the horizon,

but I can see

the sun is falling for you.

Embrace her, she's yours

she shines so bright

she puts on her best red dress

and invites the night.

Take it, this chance

It's been given to you

Is it in her? the truth?

I always knew

You'd find somethin'

worth dying for.

So dearest

let no currents whisk you away

let no troubles wish you awake

follow her 'til she ignites a new day

If its right, then go.

you be the arrow, I'll be the bow.

If it's not meant to be,

stay here with me--

lost at sea.

Is It Just Me?

What was only supposed to be a passing thought,

Has turned into a brick wall.

A supposed breeze of indifference,

Is quaking inside my head.

You pull the strings so predictably,

Yet my heart plays in the pitch black.

Don't know why I waste my time

When you're just another dead end.

Falling for an idea, a thrill, a chance

Never fearing the inevitable

On a one way train to nowhere

where the inevitable fears me

I'm such a switch.

I'm sick of this.

You know, you know,

What the problem is?

It's this.

It's that.

It's me.

Again.

It's this.

It's that.

It's me.

The end?

Speechless.

Lord I'm on the floor in pieces

so broken and confused

Wishing that this world

hadn't left me this abused.

There's a struggle in my heart

to fix this flawed creation

Can't do it on my own Lord

Let me feel that clean sensation.

I've defeated myself

more times than I can bear.

I need to give it up Lord,

Take away this ugly fear.

Need that freedom you offer,

That deep breath of fresh air.

Lord I'm just so scared

Lord I'm just so scared

Of the love that we could share.

Its so much more than anything

That I could ask for here.

it's unconditional

it's unforgettable

Lord I'm speechless that you're near.

A Dangerous Safe

You're a ticking clock.

A constant reminder

Of impending doom;

A dangerous safe.


My pulse is winning,

But you've already won.

But I can't give up,

Not that easily.


I don't know what it is

But you have it.

I don't know how you got it,

But I want it.


I'll crack the code

That is your mind-

Finding answers

That disintegrate in light.


In the dust

I'll write my name

And leave a kiss

To remember me by.


Before too long,

The wind will carry me away,

And I will become an echo

Of a ticking clock.

In Time

Simple stance but presence known

Show the world how much you've grown

Face that I may soon forget

Glance that I will not regret

Smile that commands me still

Nature that invites my will

Secrets unknown and history past

How could this be meant to last?

I fight no pride he tells no lies

I confide in silver eyes

Gentle hands but strong, secure

Show the world we're real and pure.

All Over The Place

I've gone to new heights.

These dreams so big inside my head,

I feel my feet leave ground,

And I ascend.

But the air grows thin

And my breathing fades.

I lose sight of what's real.

My heart drops to the earth

When I'm hit by it.

I can't think.

Let me down.

Clear my head.

Let me go.

Make some sense.

Let me be,

be anywhere but here

Save me from this

This constant fear

No more comfort in fallacies

I'm sick of it all

I'm breaking out

And He'll break my fall.

What's best, what's best?

I can't imagine

As I drift down to where I lay

im hurting inside

but it's easy to hide

so you won't see the sacrifices made.

I won't brace myself for impact,

I'll just get out of the way.
