A man that wished he were a bird, what a sight But what are dreams for, if not to fly If I could touch the sky With the tips of my fingers To make my hands in the shape of wings Then I'd hold that day dear to me I keep a close eye, on this heart of mine I'm too afraid to know what I might do Then one day, I strapped on my paper wings Took a gulp of wine and leaped off my balcony

A Man With Wine & Paper Wings
Oh consuming flame of love, that hates True Love An empire of beautiful memories we create Only to stipulate on falsely proclaimed common grounds That we are but equal pieces on a checkered chess board Yet viciously, we have both claimed crown to a crumbling kingdom Enemies we are, for the colors white and black cannot love each other Without the selfish rage of war, in an attempt to consume one another

If Spades Were Hearts
Our paths divide, yet our hearts collide Oblivious eyes and poisonous lies Rose petal rain and tears of pain Yet through it all, I've leaped to fall Hope for me that I find my peace Or a simple smile at the least As I fly away to my simplistic fate I leave you three words, and nothing more to say I love you

Sincerely
Wings spread, as school bells ring Creatures singing in my head Children scream, of imaginary war Dreams of the long lost before Oh Mr. Changeling, how you like to sing & I'm screaming What a strange thing you are

Coffee & Flowers
As the angels burn on by, like comets in the sky Where madmen worship dreams & the rabbits dance and sing I think I've lost a piece of me We'll drown out sounds of lies & stay hidden from the spies A slithering serpentine with venomous reality I'll fade away in me, to a star struck fantasy As the children tumble down, to a hidden underground We'll dilute the world of men & close our eyes again & the embers never fade, in a land of heart & ***** We'll wash away the words As the kings & queens wage war The jesters dance & I adore In a kingdom crumble, I've stepped and stumbled & the inner city ghouls, my friends among the fools Cling to the night The bright spotlight, of the night

Melancholia
Tread lightly on my dreams, for they are the colors of my world I open the gates to my fantasy for you Cast hatred from your mind and find tranquility, as I have Sit in silence and break through sorrow For we are the remnants of an ever fading tomorrow

Nostalgia
Make me an angel, shoot me a star I'm nowhere near, nowhere far I want to go home, I want to be me Lost in the wild, I'm finally free

Parade To Nowhere
Those that have been cast out tend to clutter together For the reason that is fear of being alone So let us flutter together, as one into space As butterflies that have realized, through broken glossy eyes Falling in love is for birds without wings For it fell into place & we have lost face As our past lovers tread on our broken bones And scream filled dreams turn to silent play scenes We have become puppets on strings For we are much like plastic play things Played with for games of love and broken with hate Slowly from perfect to toys of miscreate We are past lovers
