Fine She Said

Fine
She just said this
All the dark night through
Fine
Is all I said
All the day through
Scratch your dark head
Wait and see
Its all in how you can disappear on me
Her eyes are the color of the stormy sea

Our fear has always been our number one
Surety was what we've been betting on
Its all in how you can disappear on me
Her eyes are the color of the stormy sea

To Be OK

I could waste this whole town
Wipe off my knife and lay it in the ground
We could sit through its reign
We could see through all their lies
And all their gains

I will not wait for you to break
There is more than just one way
To be OK

You speak of that soul of yours
In folding metaphors
I guess we'll always end up with more
Beat me to life
Singing your endless restrains
I've been hit by worded mouths
And I've been heavily medicated

Go and explore
The time is here
If that's what you've been waiting for
Just go
I'll be here alone
There is time enough before I hit the floor

We could destroy this whole town
Wipe off our knives and lay it in the ground
Our musical kiss through sheets of rain
Will out live all their lies
And all their games

Just being alive won't get anyone saved
And there is more than just one way
To be OK

Come Over

If you come on over
Our entire world
We can forget it
It all will drive you nuts
That's if you let it
Breath it in until you understand it
These graves go on and on

There's a light upon the hill tonight
There shines a lady bright
Its all the same
But you and I
Its over now
I know
Its alright

I know all about you
And you know all about me
Yet the 'us' remains  impossible

Come over and pretend you'll regret it
The madness will crack you up
That's if you'll let it
Hang on only until you grasp it
The world moves on and on

There's a light with in your eyes tonight
Its shines its blue tint light
Within there shines a lady
She's gold and bright
I long to wait for you and I
Its over now but

When I know you
And when you know me
The 'us'
It feels so possible

Talking

All your friend are well aware of whats going on
And still I try
As feeble as it might seem
Yet you would trade it all to go along with someone like me

Etched into the woodland trees
One can find all our history
Within the mountains rock for eternity
How you went along with someone like me

You did once before and had your share
Yet all of that led nowhere
I suppose I would go along with someone like you

I don't care about what has been
Or who you are hanging with
Let us sit beneath the stars and see tonight through

And this is how our love folds
Folds into a delicate paper star
And we don't care about who will see
Seeking eyes will always see

Between the magic of the fire
And your sunflower smell
I can't help but feel whats going on
Our hours seem, like clouds
To disappear

Lets just talk
Talk
Just me and you

Song For Two Years Ago

I would run across the red coals if you had called my name again
I would forgo my shoes
I would give up my beloved Rockies to be back again
And all their rivers too
Just to be alone with you

You freely gave your body
To the very lonely
Armored was your soul
Yet you would have given up
Your life, love and family
You gave your all
Just to be alone with me

For me to feel alone with you
I carve your name upon the trees
And to be alone with me
We hid near the mountains stream

Till now I've never known if you loved me

What We Always Said

Finally found our strength
So we've found our way at long last
We uncovered tomorrow
By building upon our long past

Our dues we've payed
Come whatever
We said we would stick together
We are still standing
We have yet to fall to pieces
Never lost our reason
To ever stop believing

It was as if we found our wings
Never falling to discouragement
You and me
We embodied what everyone is looking for

We gave it all
We gave our level best
Our every fall
It proved to be our test

Yes we broke the rules
But we had to do it
To prove we could do it

You are my wings
And together we found everything
You and me
We embodied what everyone is looking for

You could always make me shine
You picked me up when I fell so far behind
With you
I never need to search no more

We found our wings
And together we found everything
You could always make me shine
And with you I never need to feel
Like I've been left behind

Leave Me Hypnotized

You are the color
You are the movement
You are the spin
Please could you stay with me
The whole day long

We play with consequence
Yet I lose my eloquence
Though I smile
You're not truly in this moment
But its you whose in this song

You leave me paralyzed my love
You leave me hypnotized my love
Just leave me paralyzed my love
Just leave me hypnotized my love

Don't Try To Wake Me, Please

Come you to me
Please come now to me
I'm so very tired
And I'll lay down my head
So within my dreams
Please come now to me
I am tired and I need you here
To help me rest

In my dreams
Say its me you need
Just say its me you need
Before you leave me alone

And don't try to wake me
In the cold morning
Just let me alone

Because when I'm in infamy
With you by my side
I can never feel cold
And here with me
In my dreams
You can never freely go

Come you to me
Please come now to me
I'm so very tired
And I hate to wake-up alone
And all so very alone

Carry me to another world
Carry me to a better world
Dear God there should be
Oh God there must be

And if there is
And if there must be
Can you be so very kind
And show me?
Please my love
Show me

I Fit Where?

It was your touch
Or was it solely your memory
You said you would give your heart
To this falling star
How I fall
And here it sits within my heart

No one understands
And no one ever will
All that I feel I have lost

When she found me here
Under the cold clear grey sky
The words that she screamed
Stressed and though unfamiliar
They live where our feelings sear

And if emptiness had a home
It would live in her chest
Where she craves
Reality where her memories rage
While in her dreams 'he' lives

All your selfishness has robbed you
Of the woman you could have been
Yet I wouldn't change a thing about you
I will always call you 'my beloved friend'

If I don't fit here, now in your life
Then where?

Its So Real

From collapse to collapse
The darkness between each one is thinning
Its always more than I think
From formal family greetings
To seeing your wedding cake
As I slept
In my dreams
Its so real

So now I keep my distance
That we both know
Complications can cloud
Our 'hellos' and pics
We send through the fiber optic cloud
Its like watching a poison
That's flowing from
The brunette girlfriend
That's being chased by other men
Yet
Whose hardly moving

You were always the one
And yet I'm not allowed to express
Nor can I spit it out when
You wear your white dress
So I, along with everyone here
Will ingest this facade
Inaccurately

In The Same Way

Oh how I hoped you were somebody
Someone I couldn't live without
Someone who could pull me to my feet again
When I feel hollowed out

So now darling do you hear me
In the dark
Whispering your name

I feel like I'm the last boy in this mountain town
With my empty veins
Staring at the frozen ground
I said I swear I'll never see you frown
You said that I'm lost
Are we ever truly found

Yes I know the place
But I don't know the way
Sometimes I feel no shame

So darling
Do you hear what I fear
I fear whats coming after me
Whispering your name

Stay...
Please just stay with me

But you threw your heart away
And I buried mine in the same way
I can still hear you walk away

Stay...
Please just stay with me

Over And Over

Just like a ghost
You are finally here
She has traveled all the miles
And countless tears

I will make tonight a memory
One to take me higher and higher
The sight of my shadow at your feet
I can see you standing alone

The night itself
Its a revelry
I can drag this image out for a while
I keep her lost with lock and key
Because she's fits  my personal style

She is the kind to lead you in
It is not over
Her smile sets the mood
And so I begin
To walk over
Just a whisper of her words
That makes me grin
Can I please have her
We grab a hold just to face the end
Our spark is what I am speaking of

I made this night a memory
Yes you took me higher and higher
You make it desperate for me to leave
And yet I'm coming back to you

She takes me away
Then leads me in
It is far from over
Her eyes set the mood
So I begin to walk over
She breathes a word
It makes me grin
Can I please have her

I crawl my way back to you again
To hear you speak and feel you dream again
To kiss your lips from well deep within
You are my love
My heroin
I will cross the grave
And fight 'the bends'
To carry our love
To the worlds end

Its not over
Over and over
Its not so over
Over and over

All That We Are

The ice covers the streets cold
The street lights are all old
She feels like a child left on her own
As she flows into her own

It all slowly melts away
Into a wide green river full of shame
But at least shes numb to the pain
L can you see it?

Can you feel the shallow wave
Its like a needle to the grave
Like from your hell to far away
You are my only

You seem so sad my Valentine
On your journey to your light
But like the first flame to the fire
You throw your own soul to the pyre
You're my only

We are
All that we are
We are just holding on
Just until we fall apart

Yes we are
All that we are
We are just holding on
Until we fall apart

What Was It

So here we stand
Within this sun sheltered place
Wanting so much just to see
Your face behind your face

I am left with the dust
Of your lovers
Who have gone before
And who have left no trace

Down by the river's mumbling
Or within the mountains shadow falling
You and were colliding
All of the places
You and I would run off
But what was it we were running from

I will watch you
Silhouetted standing there
Against the silver running water unaware
And like a blue bird you cut through the air

Did you truly think that you couldn't chose
That I would be here
Win or lose this
In all the places we would hide off
What was it we were thinking of

Within my still house of make-believe
We are one but divided in two
Adam and Eve
You send out and I receive
Down by the rivers side
In our secret world where we collided
In all the places we were hiding of

What was it we were thinking of

Creeping Tide

Oh all of this time
We let it slip past us
As unnoticed as the creeping tide
I want to feel nothing but your body
Alone
Just you and I

You can go
And I will be OK
Its nothing troubling my dear
Just a touch of slipping youth
Dressed in neon gray

So when will we be
Only you and me
Looking at this summer sky
Feeling your hand
Warm in mine
Can I be yours?
Because I call you 'mine'

I don't care where we meet
From the silence of your room
To the constant stomping feet
Of the never resting street

Never recognizing a single thing
From the wind that whips you and me
To signs that litter the streets
All I feel is your hearts beat for me

Perfect Nature

And in our minds
At the very end of things
All at once become
A star-field of memories
An electric display
Glowing background of black and light

That spark that occurs
When mortal eyes meet
A sight of such perfect nature
A wonder

That is what it all means
In the end
To be human
A perfection
Without end

To take such feeling
If one could call it that
To hold it all in ones hands
There is only one word to describe
One word to which we are all tied

The feeling
The thought
Of wonders of the night sky
The wonders that roll above
Billions have felt it
When looking, at night
At the vastness that moves above

Love

Forever

There are no more illusions
No more regrets to get us by
It never felt like debt
It never felt like control of the government
You did only your duty
To provide for your way of life

When I see our flag
I feel you close
Like you want to let me know
That its up to me to make
All your dreams come true

Its the Red White and Blue
America
For which you died
I will begin anew
For America
The Experiment for which you died

I found out it was true
Every word you said
Was dripping Red White and Blue
One Seven Seven Six
Every word from your lips
Gave me a course from which to guide my life

Please never hold anything back
Share with us your mind
And your mind will set you free

On this day I feel you close
I can feel you close like you wanted me to
And forever I believe in you
And forever I will believe in you

Waking Up

I'm waking up
I'm starting new
And its about time
That I forget how to give up

If there ever was
A moment to give in
It stops here and now
Please know you'll never be forgotten

How it felt
The velvet of your lips
The words you said
Your finger tips

You will forever live within
So will how you moved and swayed

I must wake up
And see the sun that shines
To know all I see
In the reflection of your eyes

I understand its sad
I've raised this flag
To shed my colors exposed
To feel freedom in my bones

You will forever live within
So will how you moved and swayed

One More Chance

You know I never wanted to let you down
It hurts me deep to know I was the one to make you sad
Lord knows I want to undo that which I've done
And reclaim the faith in me that you had

Girl you know I love you more than anyone
Though at times I get wrapped up in myself
You must know I don't want to do you wrong
And bring you to question all that we have

I know that I've let you down
And I'm begging for one more chance

All I feel now when I lay down
Is the cold Earth against my face
And the distance between you and me
I'm dying within the immense space

Its amazing that no one will ever know
The secrets we've sealed between stars and moon
What we've whispered in the wooded dark
And the moments that flew away too soon

I know I've let you down
And I'm begging for one more chance

Apart

He's got a big plan
His mind is set
And maybe he's right
At the right time
And in the right place
Maybe tonight

With his whisper
Or was it his double take
That gave you the sign
To make out
Or just kiss him hard
Without any reservations in mind

Its late at night
The passenger seat laid down to fit
Your fit body set to flip
Your best friend has noticed
Maybe you've slipped
And you are missing
The lips you're meant to kiss

Your kiss fills with terror
When in the cold day light
When you see him laying there
His shape, sound and smell are not mine

You tell yourself he's cute
Cute in a way you cannot speak
The way it should be in movies
When the woman's knees get weak
Yet you know it will all lead to causal waves
And you feeling hollow for the rest of your days

Friends say its only a crush and it will go away
Its just like all the others
It will go away
Or maybe you're in danger
And you just don't know
You pray out loud for relief
But it just grows more

In your dreams you hold me close
Blue eyes locked onto mine
This is love
So beautiful because it feels so right
Lean in
Can you hear my beating heart
Listen closely as I tell you
I'll make sure we are never apart

You should have seen your face
When he walked up and said his feelings had passed
And you looked away
Not used to dealing with feelings unless attached to hands
Your hand brushed up against his
You left it there
You told him how you felt
He held you within his dead stare

You saw him hesitate
You asked yourself 'what should I do?'
You never wanted to be played like a fool
But your reservations they started pass
Not caring if this was ever meant to last

Either way he just wanted you
All of this was bad
Because with every taste
He wanted you and this was making him crazy

But in your dreams you hold me close
Blue eyes locked onto mine
This is love
So beautiful because it feels so right
Lean in
So you can you hear my beating heart girl
Listen closely as I tell you
I'll make sure we are never apart
