As I lay here dying 
I look for a light 
I know that I'm trying 
My best effort to fight 
Away as the stars 
Of darkness bite 
Breathing is getting hard 
And I'm losing my sight 
Numbness swallows me 
Whole in the night 
All I can feel Is the stinging 
In my left eye but not my right 
Death drags his hands across 
My heaving throat 
I know my life is loss 
When I ebb as though I'm on a boat 
Regrets that I couldn't say goodbye 
Regrets that I'm leaving 
But I can't stop from dying 
Because death will know I'm cheating

Cold air bites and nips
At my bare fingers
Big soft flakes of the first snow
Land on my face
I look into the sky
Flooded with endless amounts
Of falling flakes
Swirling
And dancing
Until they reach the ground
And melt to water
I surprise myself
When I giggle
And shake the snow from my hair
Treading on down the wet sidewalk
My feet numb
My coat bound tight
Maybe this year I'll give snow
A chance

The melody spills from my lips
As I sing these words
My voice goes low
My voice goes high
These words will touch the sky
Rush through valleys
Dip to the plates of the earth
Then swirl through the skies
To the heavens
I sing from my soul
I sing from my heart
These words slowly crumble me apart
My feelings rest behind
Each syllable
My eyes well with tears
As I sing these words
That I write here
soft in her beauty ,
She closed her eyes
Rich with her youn adolescent purity
She was in desguise
She hide her true nature behind a mask
The only thing she had
Was a memory of the past
The words mean nothing to the people that hear
But those words
Hold my pain and my fear
And even as I lower
The microphone
I knew that I was going home
With sadness in my heart
Because they never understood
The words that I sang

They say I have one wish
But only the moon
Hangs in the sky
The darkness
Swallows the world whole
And leaves us with the shining moon
I'll be going soon
To the place that's drank my tears
Where I confessed my fears
Place where darkness leers
And let's the winds cheer
Through the trees
And near the creek
That place it's safe to be
Me, without a mask
Me without rules
I can tell my secrets
To the rhythm of
Leaves that caress each other
The place where I can close my eyes
The place to unload my stress
The place where I'm not a mess

Night with a street lamp 
To light the way 
Run until its day 
Storming to the point of hail 
I go outside to get my Pail 
Oceans roars a hurricane 
Surf the waves and make them tame 
Capture light inside your hand 
Discover an uncovered land 
Breath air of another kind 
Speak with the smartest mind 
Eat a food from every place 
Savoring the godly taste 
Live like it's your last day 
You only live once they say

At the break of dawn
the curtains are drawn
The doors are closed
The sidewalks hosed
The sun breaks the clouds
The music is loud
And the clowns wake up again

Put on their masks
to join the masquerade
Their pain begins to fade
When they hide
And quietly slide,
through the day

The jokers fallen
from the deck
The angels have fallen again
This world is never perfect
Not even in the end
