This Storm
I felt it, felt you
I felt the ground below shake
little shifts, tiny ripples
is this love, or maybe an earthquake...
all I know is that everything is moving
inside these feelings are unusual
intuitive, way outside the norm
depths of emotions, breadth of oceans
I hope my soul is ready for this
for this hurricane, ready...
to weather this storm;
it's a category five
it's a matter of feeling alive
it's a matter of dealing with feelings
feelings that leave me reeling all the time
this love, this hurricane
cause...

In Flames
you're gone but you're
never gone from me
in my mind, in my eyes
we've lived at least thousand dream lives
love, discovery, stardom, fame
singer-songwriters....
we played a fateful game
everything we gained
changed our love...
changed us
no longer was our love the same
we played it out across different stages
before the eyes of the world
rumours, truths, forbidden secrets
everybody has a version
everyone has aversion
which one of us...
is the devil, is the angel
they say...
one of us has to be the...

The Promise of Happiness
live it like you love it
try it, buy it, fly it
"it's your life, it's not for rent"
let emotions run high
blessed are we, who feel real feelings
who live fully, invested in moments
in people, animals, nature and spirituality
love is joy, love is sorrow
those we love, will come and go
but the promise of happiness
will return, to rise again, tomorrow
don't forget that you are heaven-sent
celebrate blessings, remember bliss
remember this;
"it's your life, it's not for rent"
live it like you love it like you...
try it, buy it, fly it
"it's your life, it's not for rent"
let emotions run high
blessed are we, who feel real feelings
who live fully, invested in moments
in people, animals, nature and spirituality
love is joy, love is sorrow
those we love, will come and go
but the promise of happiness
will return, to rise again, tomorrow
don't forget that you are heaven-sent
celebrate blessings, remember bliss
remember this;
"it's your life, it's not for rent"
live it like you love it like you...

In Continuum
I want you to accept me,
embrace me
I tend to be sensitive
that way
I need you to critique me,
encourage me
I'm fueled by purpose
per se...
spirit on a mission
artist driven by vision
innovator, translator
creator, crusader
peaceful warrior
absolute storyteller;
my story is your story is our story
we're all connected through history
eternity onto infinity
you and you and you...and me
in continuum
embrace me
I tend to be sensitive
that way
I need you to critique me,
encourage me
I'm fueled by purpose
