Debt
I could write a sad song and become famous,
with all of the words I have for you.
I'll Learn how to play and sing,
and I'll sing your song all my life,
and I'll owe it all to you.
Watch me.
with all of the words I have for you.
I'll Learn how to play and sing,
and I'll sing your song all my life,
and I'll owe it all to you.
Watch me.

Rain Dancers
When it rains for you,
It will rain for me,
Like it always does.
And I'll be yelling at the night sky,
And you'll feel my tears on your face,
as we dance together,
from afar.
It will rain for me,
Like it always does.
And I'll be yelling at the night sky,
And you'll feel my tears on your face,
as we dance together,
from afar.

A Note I Will Never send
Will I Ever be truly in the rain
Will I ever see you in the sun
Will I ever make you smile
Will I ever be able to listen to your words
Will I ever be able to dream with you
Will I ever be able to feel with you
Will I ever be what you needed
Will I Ever hear you play
Will I ever read your notes
Will I ever show you
Will I ever know you
Will I ever watch the fireworks with anyone else
Will I ever be
again.
What will I be?
Will I ever see you in the sun
Will I ever make you smile
Will I ever be able to listen to your words
Will I ever be able to dream with you
Will I ever be able to feel with you
Will I ever be what you needed
Will I Ever hear you play
Will I ever read your notes
Will I ever show you
Will I ever know you
Will I ever watch the fireworks with anyone else
Will I ever be
again.
What will I be?

We will weather the storm together. I Promise.
It's the overwhelming,
sweeping,
Rushing feeling of the abyss.
It takes my soul with a swift nothingness.
Nothing,
But the cold black surface of the mirror.
I see myself as a shadow.
Empty,
Alone .
And then I regret,
And I cry,
And I scream internally,
Intentionally,
Just to see if I can feel.
I just need to feel.
To see again in this darkness.
I just needed you,
And now you're gone.
Because I am me,
And you are you,
And we lived it through.
And I...
sweeping,
Rushing feeling of the abyss.
It takes my soul with a swift nothingness.
Nothing,
But the cold black surface of the mirror.
I see myself as a shadow.
Empty,
Alone .
And then I regret,
And I cry,
And I scream internally,
Intentionally,
Just to see if I can feel.
I just need to feel.
To see again in this darkness.
I just needed you,
And now you're gone.
Because I am me,
And you are you,
And we lived it through.
And I...

Ben
You crushed my bones with your heel After you left
I'll never forget that shit eating grin,
Always making me smile.
Here I am looking out the window,
Blue skies and white clouds,
And all I can think of is rain.
I felt your pain
Even when you laughed.
You told jokes to Rob by the pool,
While we smoked like there was no tomorrow.
You wouldn't dare to share the burden.
You were always like that,
And i wish I was like you then.
We were a few steps away from each other,
But your verbs inspired me.
You are who I...
I'll never forget that shit eating grin,
Always making me smile.
Here I am looking out the window,
Blue skies and white clouds,
And all I can think of is rain.

Blurry Nights
Well,
Come along now
Weve got voices to hear
Weve got legs to walk around on
Hearts to fear
And there it is looming in the sky
All the beauty
The bright white light
And then I start to go nowhere
But im halfway to the end
The call is closing time
im staying out again
My legs are shivering
Out in the cold
I might be half your age
But my heart is pretty old
As I look up
Hands out in the sky
God whispers down to me
And I stop and wonder why
Why cant heaven be a darker place to be
Why...
Come along now

The call is closing time

My legs are shivering
Out in the cold

But my heart is pretty old
As I look up
Hands out in the sky
God whispers down to me
And I stop and wonder why
Why cant heaven be a darker place to be

Safety In Numbers
They said
Surround myself with good.
Build a network.
More people.
Get time under your belt.
more minutes,
hours,
days,
More Numbers.
They told me I had the strength
to feel
to breathe
to fight
They told me the more I tried
day by day
it would get easier...
easier they told me.
But My demons like to kill,
they thirst....
The more time I accrued,
the more people I met,
the more pages I wrote,
the more songs I played,
the more truths I...

A shot in the dark
I am curious,
When you are silent.
What do you see?
Your spirit…
I feel it…
It warms me when you are near.
Though I find it hard
to speak these words to you,
You must know I see your kindness.
My thoughts taunt me…
My mind yearns…
I am curious,
What do we share?
Are we where
We are supposed to be?
Are you really this close to me?
Am I over zealous,
Am I chasing a dream…
I am curious…
Do you see me?
-You are the thought in my head,
Stronger than the voice of my demons.
And for...
When you are silent.
What do you see?
Your spirit…
I feel it…
It warms me when you are near.
Though I find it hard
to speak these words to you,
You must know I see your kindness.
My thoughts taunt me…
My mind yearns…
I am curious,

We are supposed to be?
Are you really this close to me?

The Owl and the Dove
I am an owl,
You are a dove.
I see you there from high above,
Down in the night,
Up in a tree.
The breeze is light
And peacefully
Coating your wings
In sweet perfume
The taste of freedom
As you drop your loom.
Oh baby sweet
Come fly with me
It was meant to be
Oh wont you know
I love you so
So take a leap
Oh from your tree
Ill soothe your soul
Oh pretty please
Oh in this night
It was meant to be...
It was meant to be
You are a dove.
I see you there from high above,
Down in the night,
Up in a tree.
The breeze is light
And peacefully
Coating your wings
In sweet perfume
The taste of freedom
As you drop your loom.
Oh baby sweet
Come fly with me
It was meant to be
Oh wont you know
I love you so
So take a leap
Oh from your tree
Ill soothe your soul
Oh pretty please
Oh in this night
It was meant to be...
It was meant to be

Coffee
Warm water,
Cold coffee,
Tell me now,
Do you love me?
Cold winter,
Warm coffee,
Tell me now,
Do you love me?
Cold coffee,

Do you see me? ( The gift)
Give your heart to me...
Open it...please.
Let me share your burden
When it is heavy.
Let the levy break and I will swim with you.
In the flood we will hold each others breath.
And with our tears we will solace one another..
We could find rest,
We could be blessed.
Your eyes hide much from me,
A skill I feel you've learned recently.
And as I try to see your soul,
My mind yearns.
To see through your blue eyes...
They pierce in the night.
A shield of fear and hard glass...
You wear it well. ...
Open it...please.
Let me share your burden
When it is heavy.
Let the levy break and I will swim with you.
In the flood we will hold each others breath.
And with our tears we will solace one another..

You wear it well. ...

Broken like me
Cynicism,
Frowns,
Dance about my fear...
Look up,
Look down-
You are found.
Dance about my pain,
Sing about my soul.
Take me in your arms,
Your silver eyes make me whole.
Dance about my joy,
Light,dark, fire.
But please,
I hope you stay for a while,
Broken like me.
