lies

When I see her lies
she must realize
when I looked in her eyes
I see inside her head
she closes her eyes
it wont help her deny
how she blurs the lines

over the last year
I shed my tears
over lies I hate
realized my fears
she tried to blame
I saw through her game
I call her on the lies
I never compromise
on truth I never hide

She wanted color
yet she can't take
all the fall out
every one that doubts
now that she is out
but we all know
and we all knew
its all on her
she cant see true

help her

if you see her
please will you help her
she's not what she seems
will you give her the answers

If you see her
please will you help her
like still waters
she feels dead on the inside

If you see her
will you help her
as a child
she remembers feeling alive

If you see her
will you help her
everyone that walked in her life
only one different than the others

every sleepless night
will you help her
she is looking for answers
with questions unanswered

If you see her
please will you help her
with poems written on her soul
she should have known better

If you see her
please will you help her
when she feels so alone
holding her unanswered questions

If you see her
Please will you help her
will she end up like her mother
all alone and with no other

If you see her
Please will you help her
I can't help her
but I'll love her forever

strangelove

rain
won't you
be complete
without me

I'll be alone
I'll be dancing
and you know it
believe

you told me
troubles and doubts
I gave you everything
inside and out

your loves strange
you wield your weapons
wielded in your heart
death of tender things
we were working on

the slow change
that pulled us apart
delusions of your mind
you let into your heart

wont you
keep your eyes closed
to yourself
so you never see

you might look my way
cause you never loved me
yet the rain keeps falling
keeps falling down

you can look my way
you won't recognize me
you can try and pretend
you won't forget me

you can call my name
I'll walk on by
your never forgiven
sleeping with your lies

I never harmed you
never your defenses
of vanity by insecurity
I put you back together
despite your heart

you can try to pretend
yet I never withered
I didnt end
call my name

demonize me
so it easier you see
cling to delusions
so easily

as I walk away

wont you
keep your eyes closed
to yourself
so you never see

its out always out there
so you are never to blame
Don't you see yourself
cause then you see me
the rain keeps falling

see

someone said when it rains it pours
I dont know and I dont care anymore
through my trials in my tribulations
strong in my convictions cause I want more

Riding down and up my soul laid bare
breathing deeply opened up to the air
watchin people walk by mediocre everywhere
I would rather walk alone than settle there

someday she might see me here where i am
maybe open her eyes and see me clearly
I'll keep going though it may cost me dearly
I hold out for her when she stays near me

It may take her a life to see this
If she waits long enough she will know
through fire and freezes she can believe it
See my strength and the passion in my soul

theres a lack of human thorough fare
lack of vision for details in the air
most men don't see a future in her heart
I see her fragile when her soul is bare

In my eyes and in my heart you can see this
say goodbye to the wastelands and we'll go far
I said take a moment to open up and see this
the true heart

paper man

Sometimes a chance can pass
a passion that should be seen
sometimes what we look for
is the one thing not seen

when it seems a chance is past
a moment, time to make a choice
that may save the best for last
regrets or love all you have

I remember each time you came to me
when the dead end let you bleed
I was there to help you through
remembered how you broke my heart
I wondered what was wrong with you

nothing has ever gone how I planned
a broken man can you understand
all my pieces put together for you
a paper man to help you stand

there were times when i had one wish
you would tell me your heart was true
you would shine your eyes with a smile
somehow it was enough with you

stand there with me face to face
cause my love this is a crazy place
so take my hand and be my shore
or burn this paper man once more

maybe once more a chance may pass
will you save the best for last
or watch the paper man burning
in your hands

wars to come

walk into our room
listening by the window
wet from dancing in the rain
with you

raindrops fall like you talk softly
listen to you in the background
light by our candles
and everywhere is you

what can happen now
unbelieable some might say
your light is all I recognize
I can't escape
Most of you

what connects our worlds
passion or convenience
yet there are you
when I need you most
there are you

life is prompting me to say
with our light none can tear us apart
what is the light you recognize
your friend is here
when you need him most

the future changes
inevitable suffering
life will give grief
pillars will pass away
I will be there
no need to find

some things your hold dear
are here today
will be gone tomorrow
when your wars come
I'll be there
so believe

holding

hold on now
just slow down
its you
its just me

lay down
stay beside me
we have found
all we realize
wiser than before

let me hold you
touch your shoulder
lay down beside me
lets go there

shed the doubts
in the end
its these moments
all that counts

I could never accept
you shouldnt either
your getting older
so lay down beside me

life doesnt get warmer
remember you and me
when there's cold
never sell out
what we are
we could be

lets go there
where theres light
where we found
a window in rain
where you found me

let me cover you
when its colder
when your older
stay to say
I love you

second wind

you my immaculate dream
felt you like a new wind
with skin you could hide
yet I came to decide
your illusions inside
clearly now I see you

It took me some time
to decipher your crimes
Took me a year gone by
to remember the signs
every one hidden by you

I refused to stay blind
like you are to hope
like I want to hide
your lies like deja vu
take me apart in pieces

for who do you bleed
and who do you love
after all is said
after all is done

it will take some time
to recover from your crime
I'll not be blind
to hope inside
as the wind blows
opening my life

I hear your words
I swear I heard before
I'm an awakened string
I'm unwrapped from your finger
ponted by you in the mirror
you created for you

chills from you now real
so long lost in your lies
you removed from my tattoo
I am clear from being blind
how you blew me into a cry
stay blind warm in your lies

for who do you bleed
and who do you love
after all is said
after all is done

I'll make it alright
in the sun filled sky
theres new wind blowing
into my life

waterfall and oceans

On a walk in the cold
I thought of you my love
like the sun through the rain
with your eyes in my mind
nothing can make me feel down

Do you ever think of me
in you is it me you hide
I know it may not work
and it may hurt
you and me again

Its hard to believe
I pass by the place we meet
you have to know
I think of you again

it may not work
and it may hurt
you and me again
it may not work
there may be hurts
under stars again

under waterfalls
when the ocean calls
I'll hold you
like I said
when you are near
I'm better out there

there are things I must show
there are streets of gold
and oceans and seas blue
you need to know

On my walk in the cold
I thought of you my love
like the sun through the rain
with your eyes in my mind
I don't feel like coming down

under waterfalls
when the ocean calls
I'll hold you
like I said
with you in my life
I'm better out there

it may not work
you can be sure
there may be hurts
but we can be
under stars again

sands

In her eyes I see
everthing in me
with her I believe
Her presence frees me

when I feel weak
If she is near I know
and I can see again
I hear heaven call

she's my ocean
she's my heaven
and when she stays
in our light
she's better there

seawind in her hair
is never fair
taking my breath away
I'm stripped bare

I close my eyes
and I see her face
steps to the sands
she understands

I'll walk the sand
she's coming too
so I'll sing for her
what else can I do

she's my ocean
she's my heaven
and when she stays
in our light
she's better there

seawind in her hair
is never fair
taking my breath away
I'm stripped bare

missing

Everytime I think of her
I get a little older
will I see my daughter
one more wish to hold her

Everyday I lose more of me
If I see a father throw a ball
to his beloved son
Laughter to make tears fall
will I see me son ever again

If heaven should ever call
would they know
I loved them too

If fate should take my life
would they know
How I wanted to go
to sing them to sleep again

I wonder if they know
I'm thinking of them
hope on hope all thats left
to see their face again

all my prayers make me hurt
they make me worse
cause they never work
will I see their face again

If heaven should ever call
would they know
I loved them too

If fate takes my life
will they know
I would have shown
to sing them to sleep again
