DREAMS NEVER END

My comments could be your theme
And give an end to your dreams
A simple moment or rhyme
Could be the smallest of signs
We'll never know what they are or care
And that's the statement or view
There's no escape - so few in fear
Day made a change value

To be given your sight
Hill in a warm peaceful night
A nervous cry for your eyes
A fractured smile that soon dies
A language drawn from your life and soul
A sign which might have begun
A long farewell to your love and so
A long farewell to your soul

Now I know what they meant to do
No looking back now or pushing through
The change it seems in taste or scene
But never gets loud or he would scream
But never gets loud or he would scream
But never gets loud or he would scream

. . .


TRUTH

Oh, it's a strange day, in such a lonely way
I saw some children dance, I watched my life in a trance
And the people around me seem glad to be there
Will my time pass so slowly on the day that I fear?

And the noise that surrounds me grows so loud in my head
From the promise I made once to the lies that I said
Oh, it's such a strange day in such a lonely way
Some people look down on me, I hope they like what they see

Strange day - such a strange day - such a strange day

. . .


SENSES

My eyes are weary, all you before me
I see the best take, the light of daybreak
It shines upon me, most I don't see
No reason was given
No reason was given

Two hard to recall, this moment's glory
A faint reminder, a broken story
My vain emotions, one day will vanish
No reason was given
No reason was given

. . .



One day it's now or never
To stay at home
Sometimes the dreams are better
One thing you hold
Believe that all these changes
Keep me alone
What brought the last reaction
I'll never know
I'll never know
I'll never know

Believe me, all I said to you
Believe me, all I did for you
All I did for you
All the times it takes to complain
But live in doubt
Sometimes they keep you waiting
For a look around
I've got a friend in here somewhere
Who can help me out
Believe me, all I said to you
Believe me, all I did for you

. . .



My love falls from heaven
To talk of this strange design
Then it goes forever
Where all things never die
People look whenever
These races have been won
Minds just for breathing
When the means for this have begun
It's so far away, and it's closing in
It's so far away, and it seems to travel in

Taken from the killing ground
By all dividing hands
With no sense or reason,
They came, they found, they ran
Taking good advantage of
All the things they are told
I washed my hands of innocence
When you started taking control

It's so far away, and it's closing in

. . .


THE HIM

Some days you waste your life away
These times I find no words to say
A crime I once committed failed me
Too much of heaven's eyes I saw through
Only when meanings have no reason
They're taken beyond your sense of right

Small boy kneels humble in a great hall
He placed hands to the air above him
White circles, black lines surround me
Reborn, so plain my eyes see
This is the reason that I came here
To be so near to such a person

I'm so tired, I'm so tired

. . .


DOUBTS EVEN HERE

Those steps which seem to take a lifetime
When eyes just turn and stare
The day begins, collapsing without warning
You fade from sight - there's nothing there

All hope allowed, it calls in answer daily
The questions are on your side
Deeply moved, beyond all consolation
You felt the pulse now and the cry

In my mind, thoughts are becoming clearer
I'm watching every move you make
Counting time spent in observation
A single blow a false mistake

Then you revealed to me
All that I need to know now
(The close went down to times
too, too much behind us)
Then please don't turn away,
Why can't I talk to you now?
(The number of forgotten years
Where my honor isn't deepest
Grows the deepest feeling and it
Grieved for safety and despair)
There's nowhere left to go
Where is this taking her and how?
(The torish threats forevermore
Over our natural favor
And us and he's and I'll fall
Far in it, and it sees enough
In our failures and it's not time.)
There's nothing more I want
To know beyond your trust now
(I missed his promised time again
For my friend)
Don't throw our joy away
Why must you just you leave now?
(Has God forgotten to approach us?
Has He remembered to not despise us?)
Memories are all that's left
I need you near to me now
(There, now, now, don't come to mind my deeds
And call out in defiance of times gone by)

. . .



Here I am in a house full of doors but no exits
In a light that is grey like the stain on my windows
All of this is a gift, such a painful companion
Inside of me

It's just something I know, the answer's not there
It comes and it goes and it frightens me
It's just something I know, the answer's not there
It comes and it goes and it frightens me

This feeling inside me can't confront the decay
To fall down on my knees and resume this charade
Believe me, this distance, it's not what I need
Inside of me

It's another story, some of it is blurred
I tried to understand him, I tried so hard
Time worked so well upon us inside of me
Inside my soul, Inside my soul

Time worked so well upon us
Inside of me, inside my soul
