Grandfather Clock

Tick, Tock, Tick..
The pendulum swings back
And drains away
Another drop 
Of my sanity 
Tock, Tick, Tock..
The pendulum swings forth
And drains away
Another drop
Of my mind
Tick, Tock, Tick..
How long must I stare?
Until it all stops?
Until I am freed?
Until next time I’ll stand?
Tock, Tick, Tock..
My mind is a prison
Yet still, I can’t move
Not until it stops
Until I’m released 
Tick, Tock, Tick..
Maybe if I died
The clock would stop ticking 
I’ll finally be free
From this way I’ve been living
Tock, Tick, Tock..
But how can I die
If I can’t even move?
I can do nothing but stare
In the eyes of my captor
Tick, Tock, Tick..
I’m still so young
Why am I here?
Fixed on a grandfather clock
What’s happened to me?
Why must I keep hearing 
Tock, Tick, Tock..
My mind is a prison
My clock is a prison
I long to break free.
Tick, Tock, Tick..

Homecoming

Your eyes were dark
Like the deep night sky
In every moment we knew

At dumb highschool dances
That smile on your face
Could clear any storm my mind grew

We collapsed on the floor
Outside in the hall
I thought for a moment and knew

That whether we’re friends
Or lovers, like then
That I will always love you

February Rain

Who are you, Winter Snow?
Where children laughed and played?
I lost my mind in a lakeside tide
Locked inside a February Rain.

Who were you, Winter Sunset?
Your light so soft and warm.
I lost my mind in a lakeside tide
Trapped inside a February Storm.

Who am I, Melted Winter?
My memory's wearing so thin.
I lost my mind in a lakeside tide
Whistling on a February Wind.

Melody

A Melody
A name I can't describe
Falling from your lips

An Elegy
To maim a broken mind
Falling from my grip

Light meets the darkness
But still it fails to break

Hope plants a seed
It knows will never take

And if I don't make it back
From where I've gone

Know I've loved you all along.

And if I don't turn around 
And come back home

Please, know I loved you all along.

If I don't meet your eyes
Before I'm gone

Know I've loved you all along.

When the clouds catch the trees
I drift to sleep

My mind
A simple Melody.

Magic

Magic twirling in the air
in forms of song, of magic, of love
to compare

Song of a people
Lifting the magic in their hearts
to tops of steeples

velvet strands
of thin blue light magic
over the lands

Bring us to life
Shake us to sing ourselves
over the land
