Still as blank pages and a pencil My mind runs like icicles Drips splat the cold concrete of my heart Beating beating A broken clock As she sways in the warm summer night On the height of my long cold mirage

As She Sways
We were vagabonds The four of us across the west Passing lines No X's in the sand We ended up North of Hollywood Land Marked our spot And Slept in a dream I woke up on an island Stranded with an empty bottle in hand No honey No money I put sugar in my tea with no place to flea There is no place I should be My phone plays beautiful tunes And only tells me the blues The fruit grows out front But is picked before the morning light I'm in my mind I'm out of sight building my flight on a boat And coasting the shore line on a wing I stopped yelling, so I could sing I need to feel something I hear the wind blow Showing me the spread of Spring I try to hold it back But I can't change a thing I'm already checked in I've already split My room is half up While the other half A cliff drop towards the door I'm gunna have to leap, if I'm going to break on through Get my foot in Even if I gotta dangle on a coat tail So I can pay my rent Make my bail I'm going to get out of this hell I know the road very well I got passed the fork and went right Living in another room More friends to fuel the fire They ask me what I desire I tell'm that feel That moment Those goosebumps on a medium But looked on high emotions That leap over a hole And forward to open arms Across mountains And into the world

Into The World
I took a gift and threw it into a ditch The man grabbed it Hauled it away, and locked it in his tank Tossed, hit, shattered it on a blank page in a hole A clean slate used to cover the light In a state of beauty and bruises He stored it and stayed on watch Cut the branches as they bloomed Around the lock and into the night No height will get passed his tools What a fool What a fool What a fool to hold a materialistic block Those branches grow too thick His blade is not sharp enough Too dull to break through the  bark Ya you can drop it down stairs But it will only go up, not out You can push the ladder it climbs But it only finds another on the wall Ya you can take its ride but it just runs down that dark road grows and grabs the sparks in the sky And sets the night on fire With a desire for love I run and look above Push that slate away And pull myself up I look in for it My Flame My Freedom My Friends My family My foundation My built gift Lifted to the sun

Look Above
Waves crash against the sand The air blows with the blues and my mind, sits steady
