from my record ( STREETLIGHTS ON THE SUN )
' someday when it's only me
looking at shadows , looking back
at me, I'll grab all my things, trade
thoughts with fear, find the loosest
way so far from here
( all over.... all over ... '

he wanted to be a General in an army
designed not to come back from enemy lines.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
IT WASN'T LONG AGO, IN THE HUNDRED
THOUSANDS OR SO, TO THE FIELDS IN
ENGLAND, TO THE RED SILK SHORES OF
FRANCE, AND INTO THE MAINLAND, ONTO
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN....

' remember the dragons and witches at night ,
remember the liars and the daylight vampires
who stole from the pile with hands worn denial '
-------------------------------------------------------------
CROOKED LITTLE WONDER
HEART SEWN OF STONE AND THUNDER
BUT REMEMBER THAT ITS LIGHTNING
THAT LEEDS THE WAY..

in Mary Ellens Garden
words were spoken and beauty broken
from the lust of our youth
to the graves we choose
--------------------------------------------------------
run into the mind field , your never gonna find it
simple state of illusion that'll leaves you in ruins
an' all I ever wanted was a way home
judging by your expression I am not alone
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
sun drops
takes my thoughts
rides free but the butterflies bill me
just a shadow in a world that shouldn't
exist
five seasons are my poisons
but also my gifts
--------------------------....---------------------
I feel as if I've been left at sea
without a captain
if I could steal some truth
from your shores, I'd swear I hear you
laughing
maybe it's the beauty of perfect
temptation, that captures the loss of
innocence, of the things I'd like to love
to have , that keep me sailing from the
waiting, in this war without flags
--------------------------....---------------------
you'll be left finding to be found
that the soul ends
where the eyes begin..
--------------------------....---------------------
In this life , we all meet the wrong person
be it love or be it death, Im ready for both
but first let me rest ...
--------------------------....----------------
TIDES - CHORUS
Theres just no way I could ever forget it
your so low you could drown in these
tides
and its washing me away to where I'll
never deny it.......
--------------------------....--------------------------....------------------------
' I see now where your future is laid
in a cardboard coffin and a ten cent grave '
