Pale moon
You glittering orb of ice and sand
Reflecting sundrops
Cascading on our darkened land

Pale moon
What secrets you know
Lovers stolen kisses
And the torment of the human soul

How we’ve wailed to you moon
How we’ve cried
How we’ve confided in you
Things we dare not bring into the sunlight

Pale moon
Rising is your ancient duty
We crave you moon
You’ve bewitched us with your ghostly beauty

I had a dream a few months ago I was riding in the passenger seat of your car
What a strange coincidence that’s exactly where I found myself last night
Next to you,
Talking about pains and passions.
A dream fleshed out into reality
Who are you to me?
What does it all mean?

Sometimes, the only difference between the hero and the villain, is perspective.

Hope, you vile monster
You evil snake
Whispering my desires
As if the dawns about to break
I’ve trusted you, hope
I gave you the keys
But hope where were you?
You failed me
Please hope
If you must stay
I beg of you hope
Don’t lead me astray

In retrospect, I thank God
I didn’t get everything I ever wanted

The expectation of perfection has gotten me into more trouble than I’d like to admit

In many ways, he was still a boy
And she was the thunder clap
That ricocheted through his soul
And stunned him awake to manhood
