The Sound Of The Rain
Is that starlight shining in your eyes
Or is your heart on fire again
I have felt the flames until immune I've become
Disillusioned by love, inescapable fate
I know it's coming. I'll be waiting
I hear the sound of the rain
An angels face. Fragile emotions
Fights monsters made from fairy tale tales
So delicate tender with strength unexplored
Well this dragon's been slayed again and again
I know it's coming. I'll be waiting
I hear the sound of the rain
The sound of the rain
So through every season, the devil grows stronger
Until smolder he does when the rain comes again
Until smolder he does
When the rain comes again
I know it's coming. I'll be waiting
I hear the sound of the rain
The sound of the rain
The sound of the rain
The World Inside I
I see a light shining in your eyes
Reflecting a shimmering lie
A costumed clown disguised the same
Intrigued by the sun and the moon
Nothing ever changes
Nothing ever changes
Do you see the seasons change
Tell me if it has rained
When you look to the heavens
Do you see past the stars
Because they'll never answer your call
Nothing ever changes
Nothing ever changes
Do you remember
The lessons that you learned
Do you realize
What the years, the tears have meant
Love is your ocean.
Filled with fear you jump in
You cling to the side of life
Trying to escape
The enemy
You are the enemy
You are at war
On the outside I am strong
No pain no weakness will you find
Push aside confusion
I battle endlessly
A victor in a war of one
I see myself, I disappear
Don't try to save me
Don't try to save me
For I come here of my own will
Here I will stay
On the inside children play
Trying not to remember that they have grown
Eyes staring at me
Move with me motion for motion
Until I turn, I spin in circles
Reaching I am for the door
Don't try to save me
Don't try to save me
For I built this house with my hands
Here I will stay
Blue
I see confusion in your eyes
A heartless shell exposed
Fragile are all lies.
I hear a need in your voice
Twisting turning thoughts
That tie me up in knots
I feel a distance in your touch
Do you fear what you may feel?
The years they do insist
And hesitation in your wish
To find what has been lost
I know you will not look
The blue has fallen from the sky
And it has cast its hue
Over my heart
The blue that once did cover the sky
Controls my every thought
Exposing every lie
Crossing boundaries set in stone
Do we find friend or foe?
A tale that time will tell.
I cry you see no tear
I scream you do not hear
This cut will never heal
The blue has fallen from the sky
And it has cast its hue
Over my heart
The blue that once did cover the sky
Controls my every thought
Exposing every lie
Lonely
ashes fall from the cigarette of the man who can't forget
who learns more from a single second of silence
than from any word ever spoken to him
any poem misunderstood
or from every second of his past that haunts him
could I be more lonely
could I be more lonely
could I be more lonely
I don't know if I could
put in front of the mirror
why he can't recall
as he stares into the scars he cannot cover
but to all hands laid upon him
and all the hands that try to hold him
the pain still hides beneath the surface
could I be more lonely.....
night passes behind him but he doesn't turn to look
the shackles and the gag will not allow it
so far am I from caring, he says
or do I care too much?
for the more I give the more I must be given
could I be more lonely
I don't know if I could
