“The girl”

Maps he drew and maps he knew
Were answers to the riddles blue

With heart on the edge
He flew right through

To crash and burn
On the shores he drew

For a love had in nights all gone
A girl so good she knew him long

Till all was gone from his mind
But thoughts of the girl he could never find

“Screaming Silent Fear”

Silence is here it is there
It screams at the walls
And scratches in the halls

Its breath I smell
Its touch so cold
The madness takes hold

Then throws me into shame
For emptiness I fear
And darkness I hold dear

As night draws near
I lay down my ear
Nothing do I hear

So terror grips
As the void looks back
And chills the air

Make it end make me hear
The voice of man
But only fear do I hear

So scared I am that no one knows
I hold it all in
For fear of my foes

“Timeless and Rhymeless”

We get lost because we so want to be found

The unknown looms before us crouching with gaping jaw
  Some run to cover but I run into this black maw

For the terror sitting before me
Is far better than the emptiness i’ll leave back there

“The Minds Identity”

Screams ripped through ****** mouths
As madness burned in every word

Malice fought to take its hold
Through silence i heard

In loneliness surrendered
Though retreat can never be

For the beasts of which i speak
Are my own worst imaginings

Striding through my thoughts
Sowing in seeds of woe

My mind is lost in chaos
The identity I so hate

Now the only thing left to hold
Are the hands of friends turned cold

“Eyes Kept Open”

Open not till given the choice
To open or lie about what you eye

For I can see whose fingers hold
What my heart protects from the cold

Right Light”

We feel foolish for singing
To a tune no one else can hear

So we **** of the ringing
Of bells we hold so dear

Then when numbness chills our yearning
For brighter stars and open hearts

All thats left is earning
Back the tremendous part

Of our mind and inner light
Which we sold for acceptance and direction

Little did we see ahead in our night
That the chiming bells and yells
Were declarations of conquered hells

I turn your night to day
And your mind to what you know is right

“Lyrics”

We wait for the boxcar waiting
To take us away from being alone

A big big stone falls and
Breaks your thorny crown

A boy a girl a friend a boe
All will be a part of your heart to go

For a ride far away far
Only on the boxcar waiting

If along comes your man
Will i become a sideshow

When along walks my girl
I'll ask for you to lie

Because i love you more
Than anyone should like to say

Since you're my girl
Then let me be your guy

You and I on the fly
From all our past and all our pain
