I wasn't always broken

In days of yore

I was bright and happy

Unfortunately that light

Made this darkness all the more

Beneath the lonely tree
In the barren field you see

Watch the summers light
As it gives over to night

There is a lonely star
That watches earth from afar

Disconnected through window pain

Inside looking out
Outside reflecting in

*See it to the end
Then start back
And begin again

You've a radiant smile
And gorgeous eyes
It appears your a sweetheart
Saying you love when I'm around
That I'm the life of the party
I'm not sure who your talking about
But if that's what you see
It seems you're flirting with me
I could be wrong
But maybe
I'll never know without action
So eyes closed I dive in

The energetic crackle
of lightning lanced down
Moments after the strike
and the streaked sky
Came the thundering rolls
Like grumbles from the grave
From at light already fled
Sleeping dreams yet to come
even if i haven't long
Ill sit and listen to the evenings orchestra

There was a rumble in the west
As the sky opened
And the rains fell
The earthy smell that rose from the soil
These are the times
When I'm glad
To be alive and free
Oh rain
Baptize me in an earthly essence  
I hope when I'm laid gently in the ground
That the smell of new rain will follow me down

I don't know where it comes from
Its not like knowing
It's more like water flowing
As my fingers break the surface
With it's depth it grasps me
Fathoms down to where few have been
Deep enough to lose myself
Deep enough to drown
As the surface breaks
The water slides from me
From my veins the blood on the page
Channeling that vast ocean that swells in us all
The very same tide we ride when we die

He wore a fickle grin
But it seemed there were worms within
Behind those tombstone teeth
He scares me
I dream of him opening that maw
Seeing other world's in the darkness of his cloak
Seeing only gleams where eyes should be
Oh this dark man
That seemed like no man at all*
Empty eyes That nightmare grin
And behind the vale the worms within
