Walking down the road
looking up to the sky
feeling the raindrops on my face
it warms me up somehow

The skies are dark
the streets are quiet
I'm grasping on my jacket
as I walk forward, faster

It comes at this moment
all the memories
all the pains
I feel sadness. Anger.

It is sitting there, waiting
waiting for the moment
as I remember my fears
it lurks as I cry, deep into the dawn

I gave it my best
I gave it all I had
I finally gave in
Into the abyss of the night

I think of myself
as a part of the universe
distant and small
cold, yet alive

I think of yourself
as the center of my universe
with me and every living
rotating around you

It used to be warm
It used to be bright
warm and bright
as sunrays in a spring morning

All that left in this hole
where my heart used to dwell
is a lingering feel
an eternal, empty feeling

You are a star, way beyond my galaxy
this is all I have become, all I have
a soulless heart
for a heartless lover

she,
a salty say
right direct into my fine cut
lines,
to wound and to love,

how ya doing,
what's new,

slipping in a well hid second base pickoff move,
seeing anybody?

you know me too well,
don't have the courage  
to lie or ask you the same
being an-in-love-no-more liar,
I turn around to reveal
that I'm now just a silent salt pillar gazing back,
my salty tears just adding,
replenishing my body's mass

On that cold, dark night
I felt the breeze
Felt it on my cheeks
But its alright

On that cold, dark night
How did I get to stay here?
Somebody tell me please!
This world's confusing me.

With clouds as mean as you've ever seen
Ain't a bird understand your song
Then my heart whispered a thing to the brain
Am I selling my hope away?

Everywhere you look, everywhere you go
There's a heart, a hand to hold onto.
Everywhere you look, everywhere you go
There's a place, of Somebody who needs you

When you're lost out there and you're all alone,
A light is waiting to carry you home.
Everywhere you look.
Everywhere you look.

Jim Morrison
Shake dreams from your hair
My pretty child, my sweet one.
Choose the day and
choose the sign of your day
The day’s divinity
First thing you see.
A vast radiant beach
in a cool jeweled moon
Couples naked race down by it’s quiet side
And we laugh like soft, mad children
Smug in the woolly cotton brains of infancy
The music and voices are all around us.
Choose, they croon, the Ancient Ones
The time has come again
Choose now, they croon,
Beneath the moon
Beside an ancient lake
Enter again the sweet forest
Enter the hot dream
Come with us
Everything is broken up and dances.

Weeping willow with the tears running down
why do you always weep and frown
is it because she left you one day?
is it because she could not stay?

on your branches she would swing
do you long for the happiness that she would bring?
she found shelter on your shade
we thought her laughter would never fade

Oh weeping willow stop your tears
I know something that might calm your fears
you think death as you do forever apart
but she will always be in your heart

— The End —
