Sleep Tonight

Sleep tonight
For tomorrow will be a new day
End the fight
Oh, tomorrow we'll find a way
Earn the right
And tomorrow we will make it stay
Feel the might
And tomorrow, and tomorrow, will fade away.

See What Be

Lost not found
Downward bound
With no sound
Underground

Forever more
An open sore
Such a chore
Such a bore

Never known
Never shown
Over thrown
Under tone

Listen in
Air is thin
Recycle bin
Busted chin

No more time
Lemon-lime
Sour chime
So sublime

Time to go
Do not show
Way to blow
Always so

Let us see
How it'll be
Count to three
It's just me

Broken host
Here's the toast
Eat the roast
Write a post

I'm done here
Full of fear
Cannot hear
Anyone cheer

Happy Alligators Cry To Me

A ticking tocking time bomb
To set things into motion.
Riding on a roller coaster
To share with your emotion.
Living day to day
Without a penny more.
Watching an auto crash
By the sea shore.
Living by the book like
Dancing acid rain.
Watching them give up
To take away the pain.
Lonely fire flies glow
As to watch the trees fall.
Never one to please
A ghostly dining hall.
Give your blood to war
To die a natural peace.
Give up your coat
And dawn your warm fleece.
Day to day, the sun dawns
And the moon doth rise.
Watching people stare
Through their blank and evil eyes.
Never one to be
A fiery water can.
Always one to want
A boiling frying pan.
Sit still
Don't look this way.
Thunder bolts
Have gone away.

Beautiful Life

Eyes drifting peacefully in a cargo van
Sitting alone next to my main man
Living off the energy of those close by
Watching living colors travel in the sky
In sync with those who really care
Shaving heads so that they're bare
Voting for who will lead class of '08
Waiting in line for the next freight
Seeing the tears of a lonely man
Making fun of the people I'm no better than
Giving your kids a good night kiss
Those people in your life you'll always miss
Living the dream, or so you thought
Look at the good when your heart is distraught
Feel the hearts of those around
Feel the earthquake shatter the ground
Smell the roses day after day
Smell the same roses rotting away
Taste the sweetness of charm
Taste the bitterness of the swarm
See the girl with the breeze in her hair
See the boy fall from his chair
The good, the bad, there will always be
And all of them happen to you and me
Events and Emotions make our life's worth
Giving new reason to another one's birth
Let the new live to see the day
Give life a chance to make it's way
The beauty of it all
Can break down your wall
One of life's most precious gifts
Is when your love makes that life live.

I am who I am... And that is?

Sitting alone watching the clock
Waiting for the moment to come
When all the bad turns to good
When that time will come
I'm not quite sure
I sit and wait with no room to breathe

Left alone to my own thoughts
On what to do with my life
I try this and that to make it work
With no success because they're not me
I am me and that's all I know
I wish I knew more, but is there?

Let me lead you into my train of thought
You see a man, I see a hero
You see a clock, I see an hourglass
You see a rock, I see a planet
My imagination is large, and sometimes overwhelming
But it opens worlds beyond our own

The worlds I see are full of awe
With people that teleport and fly
With cities in trees and alleyways in basements
With ghosts in towers and hounds in the night
With light that fights the darkness
And the light that always prevails

My dreams are part of who I am
I am who I always will be
And a time will come
When I'll know all of who I am
And when that time does come
I'll finally be at peace
