Constellation

Summoned out of darkness,

Written in the stars our fates align.

Atmospheres between us,

Converging, coalesce, collide.

But sometimes we fall,

As we bask under fluorescent light.

Bring it back…

CONSTELLATION, RE-CREATION, FREE OF FORM.

WE BOTH KNOW THAT, WE HAVE TO LET GO.

Returned to the day now,

Lest the sun reveal our place in time,

Aphelion between us

Interstellar, inner-space, entwined.

But sometimes we rise,

As we gaze over opalescent white.

Bring it back…

CONSTELLATION, RE-CREATION, FREE OF FORM.

WE BOTH KNOW THAT, WE HAVE TO LET GO.

Constellation, the constellation, will guide you.

The constellation, constellation, will show you where to go.

We both know that we both have to let go.

CONSTELLATION, RE-CREATION, FREE OF FORM.

WE BOTH KNOW THAT, WE HAVE TO LET GO.

CONSTELLATION, RE-CREATION, FREE OF FORM.

WE BOTH KNOW THAT, WE HAVE TO LET GO.

Falter

Good emotion

It's that time again

Sort out your demons

I'll sort through mine

The Earth didn't stop

We're standing still

The end is left unsaid

When we falter

Stumble unsure

Stuck on waiting for a change

Doubt your maker

ALL that’s sacred

Hoping the light won't fade away

Coming undone

I'm just waiting in line

Searching for angels

I'm just praying for time

My heart didn't break

We're on our way

The beginning is yet untied

When we falter

Stumble unsure

Stuck on waiting for a change

Doubt your maker

ALL that’s sacred

Hoping the light won't fade away

You have to look up

The sky's not falling down

You have to wake up

There's snow on the ground

When we falter

Stumble unsure

Stuck on waiting for a change

Doubt your maker

ALL that’s sacred

Hoping the light won't fade away

At least not today...

Run Away

I’ve been thinking, that it’s over

And how you always forget.

That I was lost in this and you were found,

But you slipped away and caught me off guard.

Turn time still,

Breathe life in

And break through

BUT if you, come back again I’ll never run away,

Never run away.

And if you come back again, I’ll never run away,

Never run away, because I’m yours.

It’s been days now, since you’ve gone

And I’ve been sinking through this.

That you were lost in this and I was found,

But I slipped away and caught you off guard.

Turn time still,

Breathe life in

And break through

BUT if you, come back again I’ll never run away,

Never run away.

And if you come back again, I’ll never run away,

Never run away, because I’m yours.

Inside unmended,

Lost in this regret

Of things I never should have said

BUT if you, come back again I’ll never run away,

Never run away.

And if you come back again, I’ll never run away,

Never run away, because I’m yours.

Alchemy

As I empty out my suitcase

I hear the clockwork stall

I lay my head down someplace

Here between these walls

And I know you're out there somewhere

I'm hoping for a sign

I inhale the complication

Of elevated lines

But when destiny fails

We always find our way back home

We're turning lead into gold

The interstate is lonely

Winding on for miles

Story after story

While after while

Measure after measure

Turning jackknife into straight

Sorrow into treasure

Feathers into weight

But when destiny fails

We always find our way back home

We're turning lead into gold

We're turning lead into gold

I'm back

Where I started

No photographs

Of the broken hearted

A land-mine

Welcoming

A strange kind of

Alchemy

But when destiny fails

We always find our way back home

We're turning lead into gold

We're turning lead into gold

We're turning lead into gold

We're turning lead into gold...

Hostage

Captive lanterns burn in view

Under a gossamer hue.

Feint reminder of a day renewed.

The rarely spoken and barely broken

Words reveal.

The one you held close now, you push away

Finding room to…

BREATHE FOR ONCE

WE’VE COME UNDONE

ALL WE HAD WE STOW AWAY

FORCED TO FEEL CUMBERSOME

THIS LOVE WE HAD KEEPS US HOSTAGE.

Bound by promise. Steeped in mourning spent.

I’ve been falling every day since then.

I am your captive. I’ll pay your ransom.

We’re all tied up in this place.

But no reward can bridge the canyon.

Starting over…

BREATHE FOR ONCE

WE’VE COME UNDONE

ALL WE HAD WE STOW AWAY

FORCED TO FEEL CUMBERSOME

THIS LOVE WE HAD KEEPS US HOSTAGE.

It’s like chasing the rain.

Oh you’re love, it’s like chasing the rain.

BREATHE FOR ONCE

WE’VE COME UNDONE

ALL WE HAD WE STOW AWAY

FORCED TO FEEL CUMBERSOME

THIS LOVE WE HAD KEEPS US HOSTAGE.

KEEPS US HOSTAGE

KEEPS US HOSTAGE

KEEPS US HOSTAGE

Umbrella Spokes

You catch me by surprise.

It's something that could rescue me from the storm

The memories revive

We're driving down the avenue past the river bend

See it flow to the sea

Break out, break free

Return and rain on us again.

It's just like a photograph of thunderclouds

We're stuck in the could have beens and down and outs

It won't take a miracle to end this now.

It can't rain all night.

Can you see it in my eyes?

Sunken shrouds of disbelief harbored for years.

The wind has slowly changed

Twining my umbrella spokes.  Pull them close.

As we rise through the fall

Come alive through it all

Let it dry and bathe in the new light

It's just like a photograph of thunderclouds

We're stuck in the could have beens and down and outs

It won't take a miracle to end this now.

It can't rain all night.

It's just like a photograph of thunderclouds

We're stuck in the could have beens and down and outs

It won't take a miracle to end this now.

It can't rain all night.

It can't rain all night.

It can't rain all night.

Surrender

Giving in, we raise our hands in defeat.

Yielding our bastions, a siege I’d gladly repeat.

Say it one more time with feeling.

Say it one more time before you go.

It's a quiet surrender

Pulling us asunder

a faithless retreat

turning back on the memories

the things that define you and me

Subtle glances give away the hidden meaning.

Storming castles seeing the valiant fleeting.

Say it one more time with feeling.

Say it one more time before you go.

It's a quiet surrender

Pulling us asunder

a faithless retreat

turning back on the memories

the things that define you and me

It's a quiet surrender

Pulling us asunder

a faithless retreat

turning back on the memories

the things that define you and me

Lost

Heavy are the hearts that triumph

They know not what and who they are

I can't believe it.  We're dancing with the damned.

They pull the shadows from the stars.

Above, in beats, in colors

With love, and reasons left unknown

I am not the answer you were looking for

I am just as lost

As you

As you

As you

As you

As you

I am not the answers you were looking for

I am just as lost

I am not the answer you were looking for

I am just as lost

As you

Glimpse

I’ve been rushing through,

Can you show me the ending?

Of the life we’ll make to something new

I am holding hope,

That the promise awaits me.

Slowing down to see the light,

Just one more time

I can’t even find it,

Don’t even notice,

That this is…

THIS IS A TURN OF FATE

THAT CAN NOT WAIT FOR YOU

THIS IS A VOW WE MAKE,

A CHANCE WE TAKE,

A GLIMPSE…

OF WHAT IS YET TO COME

Time tends to fade,

Unraveling the fault lines.

Disguised by truths not declared.

Questions beg us to,

Uncover the answers.

Turning pages reveal light

Just one more time

I can’t even find it,

Don’t even notice,

That this is…

THIS IS A TURN OF FATE

THAT CAN NOT WAIT FOR YOU

THIS IS A VOW WE MAKE,

A CHANCE WE TAKE,

A GLIMPSE…

OF WHAT IS YET TO COME

Unfinished Life

Giving up on the science of fiction,

Letting go of all the quick fixes

Saving time until we get to the top

Because it takes a lifetime,

To reach the shoreline

It’s the breaks, mistakes and all those things

That make us who we are

So seize the moments as they come,

In the unfinished life

Believe in things outside yourself,

In this unfinished life, this unfinished life

Turning tides on the forces of friction,

Losing faith in all the erred choices

Saving time until we get to the top

Because it takes a lifetime,

To build the skyline

It’s the breaks, mistakes and all those things

That make us who we are

So seize the moments as they come,

In the unfinished life

Believe in things outside yourself,

In this unfinished life, this unfinished life

So seize the moments as they come,

In the unfinished life

Believe in things outside yourself,

In this unfinished life, this unfinished life

Finished life

finished life

Through the Looking Glass

Say the word,

Just say the word and I’ll be there

I’ll be there to hold you,

Through the night

Come alive,

Just come alive and I’ll show you,

A world unnoticed in your eyes

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS I FIND,

ALL THE SHAWDOWS TURN TO LIGHT

STEP ON THROUGH AND CHANGE YOUR MIND

Letting go,

Letting go isn’t easy, I’ve been there believe me,

It’s hard I know

Find a way,

Just find a way and I’ll show you,

A white rabbit to guide you, and down we go

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS I FIND,

ALL THE SHAWDOWS TURN TO LIGHT

THERE’S NO TELLING WHAT’S INSIDE,

BROKEN PIECES OF YOUR LIFE

JUST SAY THE WORD, WE’LL MAKE IT RIGHT

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS I FIND,

ALL THE SHAWDOWS TURN TO LIGHT

THERE’S NO TELLING WHAT’S INSIDE,

BROKEN PIECES OF YOUR LIFE

STEP ON THROUGH AND CHANGE YOUR MIND

Color Blind

 By chance can you whisper

The lines that we draw

You see I’m color blind.

I can’t seem to make out

My place in this life

For the first time

And everyone clamors,

Everyone yearns for a lie

So tell me it’s all alright.

tell me it’s safe by your side.

tell me the truth won’t hide,

and i’ll tell you everything.

Looking for answers

In signs that deceive,

But nothing comes to mind.

Vying for purpose

Searching for reasons

To come alive

And everyone clamors,

Everyone yearns for a lie

So tell me it’s all alright.

tell me it’s safe by your side.

tell me the truth won’t hide,

and i’ll tell you everything.
