It was a sad day, we were gathered all around
You were laying on the bed, in your favorite evening gown
You made me who I am, and who I always will stay
Touched so many lives, and I miss you to this day
It's hard to be without you, but I'll never say goodbye
I know you were suffering, and now you're learned to fly
Truly you are still with us, guiding us where we should go
I wish you were still with us,  missing you more than anyone can know
When the rain falls from the clouds, I can almost see you there
Every time I am reminded to remain self aware
So glad to have known you, to have something to remember
Your voice echoes out, and I hear you in September

Underneath the glistening stars
In a town of love and abandoned cars
We lie on our backs and gaze at fall's season
Our emotions running wild, we don't need a reason
Two young lovers risking it all
Making our own heat in the coolness of fall
Lived all of this new life without a single care
It takes me back when I brush back her hair
I find myself strong, not easy to break
Yet just one simple kiss is all it could take
When my lips touch hers, I feel so insane
At the same time, I know my sanity shall remain
Skin on top of skin, her breath hot on mine
A feeling never felt, but oh so richly divine
Whenever I may be lost, I look in her eyes
She knows quite well I could never tell lies
Now in this closing, I must bid you adieu
I must enjoy these moments, while my freedom still rings true

The Earth is not all dead and cold
Wisdom is not always just found in the old
The sky turns black but it always turns blue
Each day presents itself with something else new
In the air you breathe are years of existance
Polluting it are those of nature's resistance
When you can't see the sun, look to the moon
The stars will teach you their melodic tune
The Heavens above are what we seek for down here
Yet it is what we crave that we massively fear
Why can't we wake up to a happier mind?
To retrieve all that innocence long ago left behind?
Once a man asked me if I knew all to be told
I told him "No sir, I am far too old"

The moonlight magic is working its ways
All my perspectives work through a haze
Don't know who I am and not sure what's right
My pack is behind me, I'm not alone in this fight
While I look for guidance and see none before me
I realize then that I'm writing the story
At times I would wish to only be the reader
Then I accept my role as the leader
Whenever I feel lost, I howl it in a song
My ignorance runs dry, the bliss doesn't last long
Often I am sought out, to provide a guiding wind
I ease them away to sail, hoping that their hearts mend
Though I may seem alone, I have all my support
I find all my comfort, when my followers have a fort
So I leave you with this message, and I hope you understand
I've been there myself, and will lend a helping hand

I hear it again, this storm that I willed
It's too late to fight it, I can feel it all build
What I don't understand is that it's all around me
Where family and loved ones used to surround me
The winds rage on, I feel so alone
The voices cry out, but they all turn to stone
At a loss what to do, I look up above me
Then I finally realize, someone still loves me
