Once upon a time I believe you were just like me lost in quiet isolation and yet simply free,
Air beneath your wings as yould soar above the shimmering starlight reflecting off the sea,
At what point did you dive down to fatefuly crash beneath the waves and riptides which held fast to your feet like roots to a tree,
Quiet, listen now to the sound of the song bird as she sings in subtle undertones that reveal how she longs for your return,
Hush now that simple tale of this doom and gloom that you speak for a flower that blooms in the spring must fail in the fall as summer and winter bring full circle the tale of us all,
Must you heed her call and return once more to rise above this all for a star as we are is not meant to burn down and simmer a dull glow,
Its meant to shine above all and bring light to where dark would like to fall,
However still the choice is yours for destiny is will and strength is resolve you must decide for yourself to which side yould like home to be called.

Would you truly understand me if I actually spoke to you?
Would you turn a blind eye if my thoughts were see through?
If I open my mind to you what would you really do?
In a world of strangers could you truly know me?
If the heart is a map to the soul would you care to show me?
What would it take to grow old and ask that you hold me?
In many ways we're frozen in place with time that's in motion.
Innocence is not lost, its corrupted and held out in the open.
To know what it means you must've seen what it takes to be broken.
Each impass is simply a choice that we must make.
Every obstical is merely a divide between past and fake.
If I let you inside would you hide if only for your sake?
I am a master mason for the walls that I have built.
I am a guest of Satan for the hate that I have felt.
I am the hand of God for the shame that I have dealt.
I rest on neither side, an unstable center am I.
Blessed is he who finds a sence of meaning in life.
I thought that yould try so I've ventured back into my.
One day you'll see what it means to be me,
On that day you'll find what it means to be you,
Somehow I shall show what it is to be free,
I know what you see, it lacks the color of true,
Lost in the grey a tale of light you can't believe,
There is a way out obscured by clouds is the blue.
In shackles we live meant to die in the ground.
If the chains were broken would you fly to the sound?
Would you sit there and weep for what you could have known?
Or would you lie there and sleep a lost soul to its own?

Sitting across of me,
reading a book I will never see.
She will never know
how much she means to me.

For an hour or four,
we will talk
take a nice walk.
Nothing more.
And I would love
to play the game,
but it ain’t mine.

Just writing another song,
my love is a river long.
A river that goes in endless circles.
I think I don’t need someone
I just need you.

All of me,
I would give it to you
freely.

Listening to you,
to your words
they move me.
And I try to engrave them
into my memory.
Little tressures.
Wish I yould tell,
you of the spell
I am under.

Oh I surrender
it all to you.

One day you asked me,
if I ever was in love,
how deep.
And I cannot lie
it was, it is as deep
as all of the oceans.
But I still can’t
tell you.

You will never be
mine.

Still you have
all of me.

I surrender
it all to you.
My heart
my very soul,
all yours.

Oh I wish
I could play the game,
but it ain’t mine.

I surrender
all my thoughts
around you
I have given up.

Sitting across of you,
watching you I have such
a good mood.
And she will never know
how much she means me.
