Sitting here dreaming of what we are missing
and wandering why everything is twisting
away from all that is our reality
but, noting sacred is left to see

While across the ocean and across the sky
a sunlit chariot seems to roll by
covering all in an illusive way
and I know there is no escape

Dawn suddenly breaks over the arrogant waves
a silver star shoots across the bay
mystery and majesty at its all
no one can see

Sitting here dreaming of what we are missing
and wandering why everything is twisting
away from all that is our reality
but, noting sacred is left to see

While across the ocean and across the sky
a sunlit chariot seems to roll by
covering all in an illusive way
and I know there is no escape

Dawn suddenly breaks over the arrogant waves
a silver star shoots across the bay
mystery and majesty at its all
no one can see

I was, sitting around here thinking bout my life
Listening to Bob Marley, yea, No Woman No Cry
I felt the music hit me right in my soul
I lost my mind a little, a grew old

Suddenly I saw myself far in the future
With my friends sitting around smoking at my funeral
Telling about the times we had, and I realized
It's all about the trip you take, never rewind

Never look back, and never, ever regret
the things you've done, or the things you wanted to say
But you were too scared, to step out and take a chance
so you missed out on what could be, a beautiful thing

I've been sitting here alone, for so long, I have to ask
When will it all end, and then Its past
the moment came , and flew away instantly
I opened my eyes, as if from a dream

I feel as if I am floating on an endless ocean
Alone, with no one and nothing in sight
I have only myself to keep from drowning
I watch as the sun falls, and it becomes night

I lay on my raft, quietly singing
remembering everything that I have done
Yet nothing do I regret except one thing
That I have not found the one

I feel so alone just lying here
and nothing can take away the pain
as all my dreams slowly die
as I fade, as I fade away

The sharks are circling in the water
They hunger for a single drop of blood
My heart cries, but no one hears me
So I slip into water, and I won't run

As I feel myself devoured
I finally feel some joy
The pain will finally end
And suddenly I awaken

I rise from my bed so quietly
My tears stain the sheets I've found
My heart is still hurting constantly
But, maybe my time will come

I am calm, fear
Everything We've held near
Silent, Confused
I don't know what to think or do

Every time I see a star
It reminds me of something greater
Then I realize,
I am here, and not going anywhere

Thoughtful, afraid
But everything will be ok
Soon, Its true
One I day I will love again

What do you say when you can't find the right words?
How do you express emotion through such simplistic means?
What is love but an illusion we all have from time to time?
Why are we full of such hopeless dreams?

I search for the one thing I always have
A meaning for why I am here
Something tells me I could be great
If only I could overcome my baseless fears

I can never speak what I truly feel
and my heart is always confused
So I speak through music, the only thing
That has ever made sense to me

All I want is someone to be with
Where I can lay my fears to rest
So that I can enjoy life
and not feel ever depressed

Many times I have been in love
and every time I have been betrayed
I know not everyone has meant it
but that still doesn't diminish the pain

So, this is my thought flowing out now
My dreams make me fear I am insane
but every day is just another day
and I hope I'm not writing in vain

I watch the world and I think
It is our leaders who need a shrink
They sell their souls for the election vote
Meanwhile, all of us peasants think they are a joke

We watch the news, day after day
hear of violence, but we are lead astray
by lies about the state of things
don't buy in, don't be afraid

Stand up, let your voice be heard
don't flee, but raise your head and turn
to face the facts, and the danger
let them know we no longer are strangers

To the ways of the world, to it's mystery
we have years ahead of life to lead
and if they expect us to bow and lean
they need to come to grips with this scene

Are we to allow them to be correct?
Thinking that we are all thats left
that no more hero's live to fight
stand up and say, I'm Alive



Anyone who actually read's what I post, leave a comment cause I would like some feedback on all my writing.

This is a song written with a Beatles type soft melody...

These apple colored-roses tell a song of yesteryear
One that's full of hope and promise, and a little fear
The colors flashing down like lightning flowing into truth
These stories that you tell of, you have but little proof

Tales of majesty and love until the bitter end
Monsters in the detail, denials in the trend
Surrender now unto the dusk, the sun it falls so low
The moon it rises up above us, and speaks of a new low

Jealosy and anger are but a little dream
The masterpiece we write of, isn't what it seems
As we lay here miles apart, the telling is in vain
I wonder if it ever will, begin once again

Let it be, oh, let it be, the siren softly sings
The muse who plays her golden harp, discords softly
Melting like the snow upon my stars will surely rise
This is my melody, the song of my demise

The music plays on quietly, can you hear the call
The amber waves of light, seem to reveal all
As we climb the mountaintop, just to reach the brink
Jump of of the ocean or your boat will surely sink

Relax love child of life, beacon of my dreams
The music ends it here, fall asleep and sink
Deep into the slumber, never to awake
Lose your tears, forget your fears, so that we can be safe
Then come and sing, softly to me
Like a melody, and then its all over
