Edge of Today

Here I go into the mystery that I know
I walk on the edge of today
Too late, too soon to go

From whispers that come to speak
Smiles come tears to cheek
From dreams that I disappear

Set the birds free from your eyes
Born of dust, water, and light
I need you here, here in my hand
We’ll walk to the edge of today

Feel the ground move beneath your feet
And your soul
Madness is the closest truth that we will ever know

The yellow moon’s rising
The days light is dying
What I thought would never leave disappears

Rest your head for the new day rise
Gold celestial sky that leads you here
Here in my hand
We’ll walk to the edge of today

When the mind chooses to survive rather than understand
The “Nevermore” of a woman and her man
The midnight bells are ringing
The nightingales are singing
Way up top of the calling pine

Our hearts will know the way

Free Yourself

There was a time when I was young
And running free, free and wild
Like a Summer breeze, until I was told to come inside
It was getting dark, too dark to see

They used to say you can live your dreams
Both free and wild, but true words are like rare birds
Dreams beyond your sight, don’t look away
When no one else believes
When it’s getting dark, too dark to see

You’ve got to free yourself

I found true love when I was old
Still free and wild
But my Love felt, that love was a trap
Instead of a fair wind blowing at her back
Lifting up above, up above the grey
Beyond the pale and the fray

She had to free herself

When it’s time to leave this body behind
With nothing left to find
But the Summer breeze of my memory
Of our memories

I had to free myself
You have to free yourself

Overcast (A Brighter Day)

Grey skies rolling in the morning light
Cool wet air still hanging on
The silence is only broken from the waking birds song
And my slow shifting walk down the hallway

Still echoes from the night’s dream I had
Blurry visions of what I thought to be true
You would be normally making your ginger tea right now
But the remains are only the space of you

It will be alright
The overcast skies will change
Like the shadows moved by the light
To a brighter day

Lately I don’t know where I’m going to
If I am truthful, I don’t think I ever really knew
I would just write my life story in my head
And in my heart, I would tell myself it was true
We’ve got to reach out and take hold of our lives
Life is but a day, make the world what we want to see
Even if it is just a few steps, leaving no regrets
Only the strong can trust going on to where they want to be

It will be alright
The overcast skies will change
Like the shadows moved by the light
To a brighter day

Proof of Life

I still am alive, my scars have nothing to hide
My arms are still open wide, from proof of life

Leave everything you were and come to me
As everything you are
Cast aside your doubts of living
Throw away your fear of the open heart

I am still alive, I have the pain that’s deep inside
The falling rain that clears my eyes, with proof of life

Wind falls still to the soul that’s heavy
Run with me in the bright green grass of our minds
One step away is one step closer to me
A wide awake dream that disappears in the night

Love and Hate, bound to an endless star
Fingering you in the front seat of your car
The light of the stars shine in your teary eyes
With proof of life, proof of life

I still am alive, the magic of gain and loss
Giving all your love at all cost from proof of life

Chance of a Ghost

There was a chance, there was a hope
There was dream that went up in smoke
There was a time when it was possible
But it’s nothing but wind on the water

Lies that tell the truth, are the lies we tell ourselves
The dangerous path we take can get us lost in the forest we make

Leaving us a chance of a ghost

We say we’re busy, we say we’re tired
Every opportunity we throw in the fire
There was a time when we would have done anything
But now it’s nothing but wind on the water

Make love to me, take love from me
If you don’t let me in your heart
There will be nothing to hold on to
Just nothing but a chance of a ghost

The Penetrating View

Looking up to the ceiling in my bed
Replaying everything done and said
Like a bird flying in the sky
Doesn’t know nothing underneath him or why
Just the air in his wings and hunger in his heart

It is not how much you are wanting to know
But the distance you are willing to go

Fly away, far away to the penetrating view
There’s nothing I can say that will give us a new day
Of making shadows on the ground of me and you

Running around in your Summer dress
Taking all what comes despite the rest
A simple life you dare to try
Leaving the fire and the fury of us behind
With your wheels running down the miles
Your smile has even the mountains beguiled

It is not how much you let your feelings show
It is the distance you are willing to go

Fly away, far away to the penetrating view
There’s nothing I can say that will give us a new day
to leave imprints on the grass of me and you

There are still stains and immortal remains on your Summer dress
We go to the wonder, into the mystery we lay
I built my life around a bird that flew away
No matter…doing crazy things for love is always the right thing to do

Before All Others

Some may say I’m your lover
And your friends call me your “other”
You might be holding another man’s hand
Even wearing a gold wedding band
But when I see you, I am your lover man

When I look in your eyes
You are still holding my hand
Your man, before all others

Born from desire we cross the line
Straight into the fire and into our time
On the thin ice we will be skating
Forbidden love, our hearts will be breaking
But when I see you, I am your lover man

When I look in your eyes
You are still holding my hand
Your man, before all others

My darling one, my Starling flung
Through the circling sun the restless river runs
Going where it must go, down into the rabbit hole

When “over” never has an end
Even now that you tell me that we are just friends
When you turn that corner
And you dare not look back
You still feel my mouth on your neck and my hand on your…

‘Cause when you see me, I am your lover man
When you look in my eyes I am still holding your hand
You’re mine, before all others

The Feeling

Feel the feeling I am reeling so
Thunderclaps and lightning won’t ever go

Crystalline mornings, love without warning
My own
Beyond the sunset, as far as we can get
Back to Us, back to our home

Making love and making reasons to go
Falling Sparrows, our river narrows through the snow

The Desert’s Milky Way, motel love getaway
Our own
We are the gravity, falling insanity
We can get back to Us, back to our home

‘Cause home is holding your hand
Only your eyes can understand
What the heart already knows
Love

Feel the feeling I am reeling so
Like the deepest ocean we will know
Come to me my dearest love
We’ll find the midday sun and midnight is our time

Crystalline mornings, love without warning
My own
Beyond the sunset, as far as we can get
Back to Us, back to our home

‘Cause home is holding your hand
Only your eyes can understand
What the heart already knows
Love

Without Fear

Sorrow is just an empty glass waiting to be filled
Like the tall grass touching my face lying in the field
The sky isn’t falling it is I that’s floating away
Echos of the past ruminate like Death on a sunny day

Love without fear
Love without hope that it will be returned to our hearts
Love without conditions
Love without admitting that we don’t deserve it

The devils are here to rip away the lies
So the angel’s truth can open our eyes
Feel what you felt and see what you saw
From a great height we will fall
Immortal knowledge, mortal forgetting
To be more than what you’ve begun
Singing like a bird through the night
Only to vanish with the rising sun

Love without fear
Love without hope that it will be returned to our hearts
Love without conditions
Love without admitting that we don’t deserve it

Love without fear

As If Tomorrow

As if tomorrow will come again
As if tomorrow will hold your secrets in
As if tomorrow will want to see you
As if tomorrow knows your name

What’s done ain’t really done with you
The past will not let you put it in the past
No matter how you try to put it out of your mind

As if tomorrow will tell you what you want to see
As if tomorrow, woman, someone will hold you like me

In the morning sun, in the morning bed
The light tries to come inside to touch your sleepy head

Black Wind

Neither day or night will cast themselves upon me
Come what may, come the morrow to see
Doesn't matter if the sky is blue, you can win, but you're still gonna lose
The savage heart is unthinking, can't tell if it's sinking
The ship's on fire but we're still drinking
See you never, see you sever, no matter what you do don't pull the lever

Roll down the windows and let the Four Winds blow
The sky is falling from down below

Nature is a battlefield, and Life has a war and gets killed
Underneath this shirt of woe beats a heart no grave could dig shallow
Take my sweat, take my blood, take my cum, you can take my love

Roll down the windows and let the Four Winds blow
The sky is falling from down below

Black Wind. Black Wind. Black Wind.
