ABSOLUTE SILENCE
INCOMPLETE THOUGHTS
THAT'S WHAT IT WAS LIKE WHEN I WAS WITH YOU
AMID YOUR CRUEL AND LOVELESS PLOTS

CONSTANT FRUSTRATION
ALL BROKEN VOWS
I GAVE YOU MY ALL AND RECEIVED NONE
NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY OR HOW

TOTAL DEVOTION
YES, I'VE DONE AND DID EVERYTHING FOR YOU
YOU USED, MISUSED AND ABUSED ME
YOU ATTEMPTED TO TEAR MY SOUL IN TWO

SWEET EMOTIONS TURN BITTER

WARM LOVE GREW COLD
ALL FAITH DOWN THE DRAIN
KEPT A POCKET FULL OF LAUGHTER
TO BREAK THE SHACKLES OF YOUR DISDAIN
...

YOU'VE COME TO KNOW ME ON ANOTHER LEVEL
ABOVE AND BELOW THE CORE
YOU'VE ALWAYS KEPT ME HEAVEN SENT
INSIDE AND OUTSIDE MY QUIET STORM

OUR FRIENDSHIP
THE BEACON THAT SHINES LIGHT ON THE ACHES AND PAINS
WHERE THE REMEDY IS ALWAYS FOUND IN BETWEEN OUR LIPS
WITH ECHOES OF LAUGHTER JUST SHY OF A KISS

EVERY TIME IS OUR FIRST TIME,
BECAUSE WE'VE ALWAYS KEPT OUR INNOCENCE
THIS GIFT IT KEEPS ON GIVING
NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS

EVEN THOUGH YOUR GONE
I'M ALONE, BUT I'M HOME
YOU ALWAYS HOLD ME IN YOUR THOUGHTS
WHERE I CONTINUE TO...

I'M ONLY HERE TO CHASE DREAMS AND BUTTERFLIES
NOT BOTTOMLESS PITS AND COMMON ALIBIS

IT'S A GRIMY WORLD
THEREFORE I RINSE AND REPEAT
AND CONTINUE THE SEARCH FOR THE PROPER FOOD
SO THAT MY BRAIN AND I CAN EAT

I UNDERSTAND THAT I CREATE MY FATE    
SO HEALTHY CHOICES AND PROPER PORTIONS
IS WHAT'S SERVED ON MY PLATE

MY FOLLOWERS ARE WATCHING
MY EVERY STEP AND ALL MY MOVES
MY STRATEGIES ARE EVOLVING
SO THAT THEY MAY WALK IN BETTER SHOES

I KNOW WHERE I'VE BEEN AND I'LL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW
WE'RE ALL A PRODUCT OF
WHO,...

TIMELESS AS THE RENAISSANCE
MAY YOU ALWAYS GAZE UPON THE NILE
THE LIGHT OF DAY
THE DARK OF NIGHT…
SET THE TONE OF THE MONA LISA SMILE

PURSUED FROM FAR AND WIDE
WAIT A LITTLE
WAIT AWHILE
NO NOBLE TRICKERY COULD EVER INVOKE…
A VERITABLE MONA LISA SMILE

CAPTURED IN A MOMENT
TO GO UNNOTICED
WOULD BE COMPLETELY JUVENILE
THERE IS A MOMENT OF BREATHLESSNESS…
IN THE DAWN OF A MONA LISA SMILE

THIS BEAUTY AT YOUR FEET
DEPICTS A DISPLAY OF CHARISMA
EMANATES THE INNOCENCE OF A CHILD ...
