Moon in the Water

Give me your vision
so that I may see
it's who you infinately are
not ultimately may be

Give me your patience
to ask forgiveness
for seven skies of difference
365 days of repentance

Give me your strength
to uncreate this prison
grow deaf to the world
for now I can listen

Give me your faith
so I can watch
for a moon in the water
I can finally catch

Minds of Stone

It's dead on the vine
and I can't look behind
there are minds of stone
and hearts we don't own
I can learn the lesson
the forbidden confession
that lies and truth
do nothing to sooth
a heartless ache
shields itself with hate
chaotic in every way
but I wish it would stay
dreams that are so real
where pride would kneel
where is it? where did it go?
is my mind friend or foe?
swimming against the current
the one we made
looking for that spotless sun
one that's us against everyone
and then swept by doubt
frustration reiterated aloud
smoothing seams of tomorrow
like salvaging a broken arrow
one you'll use on yourself
looking at your soul on a shelf
waiting for time to make its move
everything won, waiting to lose
I laugh, I cry, I pray
yet on this day
It's dead on the vine

Bittersweet

Any day now
i'll wake up
it was all a dream

where I said now
and meant forever

built carefully all
ties I can sever

I find my mind
can't create speech

they'll only fall upon
ears they can't reach

Any day now
i'll wake up
it was all a dream

where I wished
I could deceive time

to reclaim all that
was made into mine

it's truest to say that
words are only words

forgetting is a curse
most of them were yours

Any day now
i'll wake up
it was all a dream
