My Silent Knight

A silent knight led me forth,
into the beyond.
I followed his steps closely,
and held my head high.

I seek out my friends in the new found
darkness.
I seek out my friends that are 
alighted by the mask of my knights glow.

I grew when I came back,
I saw things never seen,
I heard things never said, 
And I did things never done.

My silent knight asked,
and I answered.
My voice grew weary and it died out,
but the silent knight held his breath for me.

We sang, the silent knight and I,
until dawn awoken my senses
and we left to go
home.

I Wish It Was Just a Dream

I can't take this broken dream
anymore

I need to leave soon, I can't see
straight

Poltergeist inside me
Why can't i breath?

Lucky I'm a live wire
Go back to where you came

I give a sign of life and awaken from
slumber

Yet I feel the mourning
of a death

I feel better today
but i still wish this was just a dream

Change

I can feel it now
changing, forever
 

I wish i had more to give                                                                
                                                                  

than these broken dreams, can't i ever

Feel like I'm trapped inside a box,

can't escape

Why is this world so cold,

nobody relates

Being in this box, I'm alive but I'm

so alone

Can't figure it out, not outside

but to uphold

Traditions that lie on who we are,

as people

Breaking me from the inside,

can't fight this

Feelings of change that have

washed over me.

Connection

You said you lost connection
Maybe i can understand that
You say you are just gonna give up
And it makes me so confused

I thought you liked me
I thought you wanted me
I thought you were the best
But i just don't know anymore

It makes me want to cry
It makes me want to give up
The things you do to me
I can't even see

The things you do to me

You said you lost connection
And it makes me so confused

Emotions

Emotions
Strike me so
Suddenly
Feels like I'm
Once again
Hit by a bus
____________
Remembering
When i was
Alive
Just one more
Breath
And then a Goodbye

The Takeover

Watch me leave out that door
Right Now.
Just like a Memory.

You think I 
Want this?
Reassurance being handed out like candy.

Hide me.
I can't watch as this Takeover
Happens right in front of

Us.
Water pours from
The tightly wound hose.

Front yard full of water
And the dust falls.
The takeover.


Spin around.
Look.
Spin around.

Nobody understands.
Am I the only one with
Tears?

I run as the buildings 
Crumble right in front of
Us.

A phone rings
And No One
Answers.

Maybe it's all in my head.
I cannot breathe.
Until I met You.

What did you  say?
The Takeover.
So You See Too.
Thin as Paper.
We Agree, 
We need to save these people.

Why don't they realize?
What's happening?
I don't understand .

Confusion around every curve,
And the wind whips.
So hard. It hurts. 

You think We
Want this?
Reassurance being handed out like candy.

But at least I have You
Now.
I can feel your heat.

I See You Now.
I Think It'll Be Alright.
We'll Survive At Least.
You Still Want To Save Them.
But You Need To Understand.
They Don't Even Know It's Happening.

Living Inside the Sun

Living inside the sun isn't as hard as you think.
Speaking aloud makes the clock tick,
And i grow to reach the day to click
An answer buzzing inside my clock.

A lick put on the place,
The place we met, that place that meant
Words unsaid and people unmet
I just hope it sent.

A message to those boys and girls sitting
Around the fire
I begged to the God of mercy and thanks
But i thought of that place

That place we met, the place that meant
Words unsaid and people unmet
I just hope it
Sent.

That clock that ticks
Ticks when i talk
Talking tables toward the Trail
Of tears, of blood, of grace and spunk.

I thought that buzzing answer was coming
Into reach
But it left me hoping
Desiring more.

And then the day came
The day i made the clock tick
When i found that answer to the way
The question was stated i thought it sent.

And know i realize with cold
Cold eyes that the answer was
In front of that place we met
That place, that place.

So now i sing
Now I dance
I just want you to know that
Living inside the sun

Isn't as hard as you think

Without

I want to know why it's always my fault
You are never responsible for your actions
I want to touch the face of that angel
But you took her from me

That was my fault that you took her.
And it was my fault that the other left you.
Ha that's so funny
Don't kid yourself

You don't know how it feels 
To be your own best friend
You don't know how it feels
To always be on the outside
Without
You
Without
Her
