Wicked rain falling on my wedding day. It was not bravery that kept me from running. I would have had I not fallen down. Fell in fear. Fell to the ground. Stubborn sun bringing light to the night that would have no end. We're scared to end most things. Especially when they won't come again. But it should have an end. Shouldn't it now? Nagging mind putting salt on a wound that would have healed. Should have gone away. But instead it stays. But it should have an end. Shouldn't it now?

These Words 03:32
these words you swear by with time they will fade because nothing stays the same won't someone please turn back the page and in my greatest moments i will say "it seems as if I'm in a play a score written from the feelings that i convey" the glass sweat until there was a water stain on your fathers organ a crescent moon that will never be full

Everyday he paints the ocean. But its something he has never seen. Its from his deepest oldest memory. From men before him. He dreams of eyes like his to look into. Eyes that see far and wide. This man who has never seen his face. And any day he paints a mountain. He wonders if what he has made is true. And most often he figures it its. While looking on his naked palms he finds with every question there is a line. He dreams of hand like his to hold onto. Hands with their own unique lines. This man, I've never seen his face.

Hogtied 02:17
hogtied and out of lies hardly even there and you showed me how to care tonight i was tongue tied and out of lies hardly even there and you saved me from despair i'm thankful but our love was depending on the time we spent apart the air to feed the spark but now its too much

You may have been the purest child. But the world is not pure. Thoughts and feelings will surface and become actions you may regret. Decisions you make. And the people you choose to trust. Will shape who you are. How you treat others reflects how you treat yourself. Love yourself. Your tolerance of hate. Could build up until its too late. Ask yourself if your child self would love what you've become. What you have made.

Waiting for the warmth to reach my bones. But I know it won't. I know it won't. And I said that the warmth would reach my bones. But it seems it won't. I know. "Creek bed" the words in my head when I reach the day. Exposed stones in a row. Cold and dry. Waiting for the warmth to reach my bones. But I know it won't. I know.

Empty Star 03:18
Empty star the death of light. Brings with it the name. Exceeding the life of it's own eyes. It carries on as our grave. Chosen to give. Chosen to give. Empty star Sparkle once to demonstrate. Twinkle twice to try. Pour a glass of milk at night. Just to pour out the day. Chosen to give Chosen to give Empty star

Silence 03:07
Silence it came and brought with it shame. Alone to my thoughts and i'm insane. Thank god for the people that turn me on. With them I know that I am home. A home is a purpose. A home is a cast. Protecting your wounds while they mend. The storm brings us inside where we stay dry. Our troubles at rest at least for tonight. We celebrate life. We celebrate death. We sing of our love and we sing of our stress. We need it all the good and the bad. A balance a trade a debt we will pay.

i love and if there was nothing else but i could remember my life i could dream of it for a million years it would be enough to last that long some nights i feel as if i understand but that my tongue and my hands cannot achieve it but the story is alive and we live it everyday i can see in your blankest stare when you've forgotten where you are that you must see the most beautiful places in your dreams
