Can I take another heart break Can I have another smile Losing is a heartache But you will last a while. I've settled down my hopes, I've compromised with dreams There's nothing I can give, To bring you back to me. And there you are, Waiting for me still, Everything I have done, And everything I will. You see me as my best, Though I am at my worst, I don't know how to love you And loving is what hurts.

Down Under
The burdens of luxury Love And loss... Thrown together In a crude little box... Strapped to our backs, Heavier than thought... Growing greater And greater, And never To stop

The demons of the dark, That fought the beating Of your heart, Swimming swiftly Through your veins, Taking pleasure In your pain Never giving you a moment To fight away their torments Dreaming only of the kiss, Of a shot gun barrel's bliss Finding temporary peace In the face of their deceit

No one sees The moon as it rises, Peeking its head, Above the horizon, Hidden behind, The sun's enterprises. Yet there it sits, Silent and waiting, Patient desire, Anticipating, As nighttime arrives, And the sun slowly fading, The moon shining bright, As the world succumbs, To conniving dreams, Until nighttime is done, Slipping once more Behind morning's sun.

To see him play, Is like nothing else, He gets lost in the rhythm, And lost in the time, He bows to the song, And lives for the rhyme, A single note turned brilliant, By the magician's hands

In this castle where I lay, With the angels and queens, As they bow down To pray. And in these dreams, Of which I sleep, My tormented soul, The demons shall keep. And with these thoughts, My pen does bleed, Onto parchment composed Of guilt and greed. And in this hell, Of which I dread, Upon a rock, I rest my head. And with these hopes, My wings spread high, In dreams of returning, To that castle in the sky

Castle
This fire slowly burning As it Takes its toll of learning From a heart So young and yearning This grave I keep on digging So my Lonely heart keeps cleansing All its Fears and past forbiddings Take all that I'm forgetting To live This life worth living Seems so Simply unforgiving
