waltz in the rainshine lightly misting on my face is the storm coming or going? in this condition the droplets dance can't go traipsing through that work. the harder it falls the easier to tiptoe around the moisture dampening our lives or does it bring life? shall we dance between the raindrops or waltz in the rainshine?

inquisite i think i'll ask permission i know you'll find it weird just trying to avoid what everybody's feared unsure of what your feelings want to say to me unsure because the distance lays between you and me
and every time we talk together can't explain it so i ask
is it ok if i love you? the meaning is swimming in haze is it ok if i love you regardless if you feel the same?
not looking for your hand but not a foreign thought and that's the sort of problem you may not have sought something like the way a knight has his maiden a time when just to love was admired not a sin
but every time we talk together can't explain it so i ask
is it ok if i love you? the meaning is swimming in haze is it ok if i love you regardless if you feel the same?
funny how it works this way hide emotion in the fray it's not sudden but unforeseen taking chance on a distant fling

one (1) tell me, when the dreams go black does it mean it's over? are all my aspirations motion picture shows? and how those come and go...
believe me when i say i've tried don't leave me far behind the losses taken all in stride for the love of one
i tell you now, i'm sorry: i failed to comfort you gave you crimson-colored glasses i couldn't have you chasing after things when they are not as they seem
you don't believe me because you've never tried just digested the sweet lies never losing leaves you soft inside for the love of one

look from the window down from the window outside the window out from the window
he bites his lip to hold his tongue the silly things that have been done remember all the times before she said she couldn't love him more
he bites his lip to dam the tears the truth has realized his fears some people never change their ways breathing hate and love the same way
but why does he feel he must justify himself to judge the fairness of moving on? when he found to regain an emotion once shared with the girl in the window
he bites his lip to stay the rage because their minds don't accept change although the anger's justified knows the heat just fuels the problems pride
he bites his lip to stop the laughter look ahead to the next chapter without regret he looks ahead and to the future gladly rests his head

some days the constant buzz rumbles underneath the skin those day it might win i find the life beyond the whim it's living too thin these days it might win
come closer dear come re-live the fear come don't mind the mess i leave behind i know where everything is
try to make amends with empty words conversation makes the feeling worse i search for ways to let the notion go "put on a happy face" you know? i don't keep masks on my shelf
only a piece of me was left relieved when, finally, you chose to run away from what we thought was good but happy thoughts don't sooth the pain/hurt that left me sleeping at home alone and you're bringing it back again
every step away you run in close like stalking your prey find the most remote way to keep a tether tied around me
should i think it flattering to find it's still awkward feeling, so much when i'm just being civil? you should know that the piece of me is no longer free for the games that you play: let go, let me love again in peace
ask me to look at the pictures call me to hang with your friends not til you make clear your motives it seems you want me to love you again

glimmer a glimmer of hope in a facade of happiness someone to help on the shore of confidence in nothing but shells of plastic princesses you're willing to wash them away
look how they roll bombard you with everything see in their eyes won't appreciate anything done with your heart just another grain of the ever-blowing sand it's a waste of time
as you see the arcs of those below looking to fly with the way riding cleanly on the surface only soaring coz you found a way

search for the words that'll never make sense just not enough, only pennies and pence enough in it countenece, enough in my mind but it's something simple, not broken, it's clear
am i criminal to find you lovely and keen? am i criminal to see you in my dreams even though the time we've spent is short? you're the girl i'd like to court

sitting where the time becomes the truth eating my bones dying here unknowing falling through obscurity looking through glass shining me reflecting what was past while shielding me from present themes affect simplicity
can't live waiting for the sun only option is to run
becoming a waiter another to say "i've nothing to offer you" you lay in wait your hesitation demoralizes the world if you don't move ten why should i? it's on your hands when they all pass away -

seconds sometimes a fleeting moment captures my fingers it goes on forgotten never to have its sound grace my ears once again. the smooth conversation we never had but are remembered for more clearly as the brook that shimmers, shimmy through the windy livelihood dependent on its continuing rushing on. like everything we live for now becoming past in motion smiling as we go on believing seconds last forever.

You tell me to swing it You know the way it goes You've seen this lick before Yeah, most everybody knows
But i expand the boundaries But i won't play this game The rules are most beleaguered And end results the same

The truth is what moves forward The truth is it won't end it isn't dissapearing More lively than the wind

etch your/my heart into the sun unravel what won't come undone wear cold shoulders in your sleeve we will give no one reprieve dasvadanya there's no grade for the monstrous tides we wade in the murky depths we ride out of the darkness, we can't hide
stitch your/my mind amongst the stars live beyond their forced par cement existence within glass crying out "i'll never pass" when all the while. looking hard, time was wasted, no regard for your hope, everything you need to not get by on naught but greed
wrap your/my soul around the moon our satellite that shows her wounds in beauty that been ever praised alight to all the faults we razed emmaculate, destroy our youth and say, "it's wasted, more vermooth" never thinking what it could be to show yourself in company

i've been focused on the start for days plenty of time to set me in motion motion, ocean the tide rides high and low pulling me out to sea, foundation a crushing blow
see as she speaks she tells, retreats
alone, knowing the way of the world, praying to change the mold, our lives fit into unknown, taking a chance in faith, believing we could be more, or something better
i've been dreaming so big they can speak in colors of strength so that they spill over over an' over into the life that i lead feel the embrace of a world born into a perfect shoe
see as she speaks she tells, retreats
but do you dream in shades of grey? or put off living what they say? leaves you feeling broken in the life you have chosen visions came to you knowing what you do
alone, knowing the way of the world, praying to change the mold, our lives fit into unknown, taking a chance in faith, believing we could be more, or something better

i sing myself to sleep i lull the night by me the darkness streams through every bit of light it's on me to wake up

When all the world escapes me i just pull up a chair listen to the space between and realize that's what i need in the void i hear the noises what i feign to listen to in the everyday anyway just trying to get by Complacent, apathetic to the never-changing all around never notice, never see the spark that becomes When reading looks like a game seeing more than black on white but spectrum in eternity alights upon my head look for what it means when it's just circles finding the constant center-piece
All the time that i've spent here been staring at the sun until i sit and take the time something i'll never know only when we realize we're blind can we ever choose to see

We are too stuck up to think that things could be better here for everyone; We are too stuck up to think that it should be or is us that need to begin the move towards change; We are too stuck up to consider multiple solutions to the same problems we see; We are too stuck up to share credit where credit is due; We are too stuck up to respect or accept anothers point of view;
I took a walk beside myself out in the rain we chatted closely; sang the songs that slip away Myself apologized for lack of words to say the silence slapped my face but i don't blame it on the rain
We carry fortitude the likes no man has seen including us, you see, we know not what it means the gray surrounding us - a new relentless blend so hard to see the right but i don't blame it on the rain

on nukes and lard America the bountiful won't share with any man how much any one life worth not pennies in their hand many learn not growing wise listening to dirty, dirty lies
America the plentiful hoards all they take away from 'assets' they've protected and they take over and stay told to never trust the truth no need for proof, no need for proof
their lies are not our own don't relieve your righteous disbelief on those who'll understand - we're doing what we can
America the copious "God shed His grace on thee" not a care for all of US between the "shining seas" this generation's lost the 'why' finding bliss in living daily lies
listen hard to all the fluff that's all there ever is America the beautiful the poorest of the rich told to never trust the truth no need for proof, no need for proof
throw that love your way it works like hand-grenades land it somewhere near works in spite of fear
once a gain again you're coming alive is this what you expected? it's taking the truth away from me i'm sorry that now it is my time to go i'm sorry that now i have to leave
but i try and i fail when i can i will
well i'm back again i stack again the road-blocks in my skull between the ears lay aches and pain and lies that bring me closer to life or so i believe
fall off track again we crack minds to feel less crazy insanity denies the truth of what we have become to life and this i believe
new thought for the hungry tired, poor, and thirsty: all of humankind striving lives unknown to center an being a product of economy struggling to work with old practices that should be dead destroying new life breaking through to see light for moments too short for mere remembrance

globe pieces of what you though you were falling from the sky landing on my thigh i pick you up and it's nothing, disappears
the star is red again perceptions wearing thin so clogged with bits of you materialistic view
sadly it but yet appears life repeats, new souls are here wishing for a bluer true not gray in my rear view
but i guess this is how it snows
natural infection take you by surprise form pieces of who you though you were falling from the sky
descending up stairs can you hear my motor hum with anxiety for the truth was never told? taking lives so far away never managing to just care for you own
your policies show priorities that need to be in checks and balances are failing to produce results that i and fellow man can believe in too much longer the fear is ever stronger and you should be afraid
so come on down the price is wrong for fat pockets their faces long have-nots rejoice the time is nigh we have a voice so hear our cry
can you see my motor hum standing at the door place where confidence consumes claiming rights beyond your own just a cowboy wrangle up some terror lies
throw your broken hearts and caskets in the back
