Smiles of their shallow passions,
blinded by the lights,
soaring from a wire noose,
wrapped in the fog of somewhere they can never know,
wearing masks of many colours hiding for all to see,
Projections of the milkyway turn the double helix at their core,
anti spiral of the pits winding wicked tales
empty souls that pass them by drawn in by the sales,

Where yesterday was,
or where tomorrow will be,
is nothing to do with me,
As the leaves turn
and snow begins to fall,
I will rise or I will burn,
Where yesterday was I can never prove,
Where will tomorrow move me,
Above or sent below,
Where yesterday was,
or where tomorrow will be,
is nothing to do with me

The scattered essence our alter egos
stare at them selves in the mirror,
shedding tears that pass us by
raining us into existence,
Something in the eyes of oceans,
whispering acid lies in depths unkown,
searching for our fish in a barrel
working for our shot in show,
when the curtains raise in endless motions,
the call will,
eventually come,
in piercing notions,

Where yesterday was,
or where tomorrow will be,
is nothing to do with me,
As the leaves turn
and snow begins to fall,
I will rise or I will burn,
Where yesterday was I can never prove,
Where will tomorrow move me,
Above or sent below,
Where yesterday was,
or where tomorrow will be,
is nothing to do with me,

I walk to clear my head,
wondering aimless amongst the dead,
listening to what the lives wish they'd said.
New life born upon thier backs,
as I crush souls with my tracks,
pondering this my brain racks.
Listening aimlessly my thoughts blurry,
Thinking back on all my friends,
my heavy heart this truly mends,
as finally my journey,
ends.

I always believed it was better,
just to give up and wonder,
what could have been,
Now I know,
Now I know,
I can never give up,
and I can't get back down,
no more,
I'd rather fight and it fail,
I'd rather suffer than wonder,

Go in facing the pain,
with out the risks we can't grow,
without the cold there's no snow,
no sun without,
the moon,
But you'll know soon,
It's not better to give up and wonder,
when it's your life that tares asunder,
Fight never bail,
who cares if you fail,
Suffer then let your life buffer,
reset and reload,
don't regret this episode...

I always believed it was better,
just to give up and wonder,
what may never have been,
and now I know,
Now I know,

A bird born in a cage
will see only sickness
in the eyes of those in the skies

There is more to I
than meets the eye and I

I choose to fly

The cursed lies of history
demanding a future from me
and mining my attention span
my attention spans galaxies

There is more to I
than meets the eye and I

I choose to fly

Shadows of the hidden hands
piercing your hearts and minds
fighting over forgotten clans
and ignoring prudent signs

There is more to I
than meets the eye and I choose

I choose to fly

The lines of life,
and dreams are blurred,
when desire rules,
and freedom speaks,
riddles if the day,
water of the wishfull well,
that spills into the now,
yesterday's regrets will stray,
and drift through passions sleeps,
bells ring mellifluous tombs,
that teach us where we go,
what happens when tomorow comes
none of us can know.

The're are no snakes,
just Ladders,
for even when you life is in tatters,
you grow,
grow,
grow,
you float,
passionately to your dreams,
When we are salmon,
fighting up our streams,
this is when,
your tenacity gleams,
and pulls,
pulls,
pulls,
you passed,
your past,
your present for
Your future,
awaits.

Once I was an empty tree
and here I swung
On the lowest branches of me
life not yet begun

and here I see you
and you see me
passed me you flew
reaching out
we always missed
reaching out
into the abyss
into the sea
passed you I flew

The deepest depths of me
and down you slung
the branch I could not see

as I am drowning
you are frowning

and then I feel
your last appeal

Your wrist clasp to mine
and mine to yours
and together we soared
forever divine
