It's Alright
It's alright if right now you can't love me
still I will love you the same anyway
and it's alright if you have to leave
I know you have your reasons not to stay
I can see it in your eyes when you look at me
it's alright if you speak to me with silence
I know sometimes words can never come easy
but I can still hear everything that you say
it's alright if you need to take some time away
because what you are to me I still believe
and this heart will just be okay
until your not lost and find me again along the way
where I will be waiting for another chance
and saving for you my last dance

Shelter
You keep looking for shelter from the rain
searching for a piece of mind
something you lost once inside
that is still hard to find
wading through river's deep and wide
and there's no Angel by your side
no wing's to help you fly
sorrow drowns you as you slowly die
You keep running for shelter from the pain
looking for peace left unkind
turning the pages that you can't rewind
staring at a face in a mirror
seeing days that use to look so much clearer
running for shelter hiding from the tears
as the blue in the Sky disappears
memories only wash away the years

Where Angel's Once Danced
Faith taught to you with each test
a touch of a love you wanted to believe
but still you can only feel faith leave
as you're left alone standing in a darkness
with the weight bared down on your chest
you can no longer feel faith pressed

Surrounded now with only an emptiness
where an Angel's lips once kissed
with screams echoing of a sadness
words spoken are now only silenced
where beside you Angel's once long ago danced

Heaven closes a door on when you were blessed
with an Angel's touch you no longer feel caressed
while time turns away on you
you can see a light but can't get through
as the gray fills a sky once so blue

Plastic Generation
When your name is only a number
in a plastic generation
and colors are only an imagination
burning through a blood red sky
when the dreams they mean nothing
in the black of forever
still trying to reach for something
in the dark of your own revelation
who you going to be
when the world that you hunger for
is no longer anymore
as they watch your soul die
and freedom is no longer free
through who's eye's are you going to see

I Am
I am the silence in the night
an Eagle in flight
I am a Spirit in the wind
the Wolf you hear howl
on a midnight prowl
I am the beginning and the end
of all that you see

I am not a idol
your Saviour or a King
I am that of everything
with the answers you like to know
of all that you let go
I am forever free

Words (From A Poet)
We speak words of wisdom
when the heart is full of sadness
sometimes thoughts of happiness
when we bless the morning sun
other times just for fun
that's where a true poet comes from

We speak these words of poetry
in a timeless past
a masterpiece so vast
where motions and emotions
rush by so fast

We are all, but only one
on a empty highway lane
frost like snowflakes
on a window payne
we hold not the anger
from within
but express our lonliness
with paper and pen

Though our days are not forever
our words will always last
in this world of reality
like hours that never pass
through pastures of green grass
we're just pieces of shattered glass

Do You Know Who I Am
Feel inside my soul
all the things that I see
what lives inside of me
and fights to survive

Can you taste the love I know
that keeps me alive
and see a part of me that dies

Do you hear the echo
inside me that alone cries
do you know who I am
as you look through my eyes

Do you see a broken man
hiding behind the pain
of memories that remain

Can you feel the sadness
of all the empty madness
that is buried in my mind

Do you know who I am
try to see inside if you can
and tell me what do you find

No Peace Anymore
All the troubles and wars
blood spills and pours
this is the times of revelation
that we destroy all creation
blue skies turn black
days gone we can't get back
this is the end of time
we crossed that thin line
there's no peace anymore

And this is all we have left
between love and theft
children killing children
these are the things we teach them
behind locked doors
there's no peace anymore

Tear down the walls
just to put up new ones
mankind falls
still we never learn
we just let it all burn
there's no peace anymore

We suffer persecution
tortured and put to death
for your belief
you're only just a martyr
in your eye we mortify
as we watch another one die
take your last breath
this is all that remains
there's no peace anymore

Tied to chains
you hide behind repulsion
and there's no resolution
one with power refrains
on your knees he restrains
just like so many times before
and there's no peace anymore

Native American Pride
Equa Adanvdo adanedi aya hia nvlinegvgv Yv uduladi nudale iga
(Great Spirit give me the strength I need another day)  
nashi Yv anasgvti adasehede anisoi
(that I may guide others)  

Nasquu gohi Yv adadvdodi vhnai nehi
(Also this I ask of you)  
Equa Unitsi Elohino
(Great Mother Earth)  

We walked in peace and harmony
warriors brave and strong
guided by the Great Spirit in the sky
respecting the way of Mother Earth
we taught this to our children at birth

We were all but one, just like the Eagle, we were free
this was our way, the way it would always be
with our wings spread, we would fly
this was our Native American Pride

Then white man came to take our land
said our way of life was wrong
this is what they would decide
and it didn't take them long

Still we didn't run and hide
we stood tall and made our stand
never to carry the white man's brand
this was our Native American Pride

For our own beliefs, so many died
both women and children cried
as one by one, all was lost
at the white man's cost

Said the color of their skin, made them right
but we didn't give in, without a fight
no matter how hard they would try
they couldn't break our Native American Pride

I Love You, I Hate You
You walked away
no words left to say
torn between a mixed emotion
******* in a empty notion
your love a deadly potion
I couldn't let go

Remembering everything you said
I love you, I hate you
I need to leave you
I bleed for you, I wait for you
still these words in my head

Caught in this whirlwind
between an enemy and a friend
time passes we try to pretend
both looking for something new
these nights just trying to make it through
losing everything that we knew

Remembering everything I said
I love you, I hate you
I need to leave you
I  bleed for you, I wait for you
Still these words in your head

And as we try not to let it show
hiding behind the pain
this love we both refrain
nothing here is the same
just another dying flame
all that's left will remain

Remembring everything we said
I love you, I hate you
I need to leave you
I bleed for you, I wait for you
Still these words in our head

Beat Of My Drum
Feel the beat of my drum
and dance to the wind
through the words of my wisdom
may you find your freedom
to brighter days to come

Carry in your heart a Warrior's song
when you feel the road's journey
has been exhausting and long

When you feel your path broken
and you can't seem to mend
look inside yourself you will find me
and I will make you live again

Spirit Wind
I hear the voices cry
from a long time ago
blowing through the wind
on a broken trail of tears
where we still held the pride
through unforgotten years

I see the faces in agony
in a dark vision's past
that once thought would die
of a pain I can't let go
on a Spirit wind I ride
through an endless sky
that I can no longer hide

Through a Warriors eye's
I see what is to be
of times that won't last
where our people will rise
and will remain strong
from all that was wrong
that only made us live again

She Said
She said I spent my time
here for so long lonely
so can you take this heart
that will no longer shine
promise to never leave me
here in the dark alone
inside this empty home


She said nights I cried
waiting here just for you
searching my dreams through
with love left here broken
as I was falling apart
and watched myself fall
over and over again
with the echoes of a whisper
that have long gone died

She said can you love me forever
will you run to me when I call
and heal the pain now in stone
that for so long I have known
will you put your hand in mine
and show me the way
to the light of another day
with me always will you stay

Bleeding
You feel inside the pain
a love you can't deny
the tears that stain
now fall from your eyes
words that were only lies
from all that was spoken
with nothing to remain
a heart torn and slain
left bleeding and broken
with no reasons why
your dreams worn and bitter
that you thought long ago
would only get better
now fall like rain
bleeding from the sky
with screams that echo
the sound of thunder
lost in love's plunder
the night is left but to cry

Stand (Native Pride)
I know this to be true
if we want to make it through
together as one we must stand
and united we will never fall
it's the beauty of it all
when we join together in hand
to face this reality that is real
we can never change what was in the past
but we can make a future last
and for those who don't like it
we can tell them to kiss our ***
though we'll remember and never forget
know that we are here still
and we have to look ahead
because our dreams are there instead
to stand for our Native pride
what we were born with inside
I can see a storm come to pass
on this holy sacred land
where our Ancestors bled
and so many thousands died
but though they may be gone
their Spirit's are strong and live on
because they fought for our Native pride
and that's something you can't ****

We Are All
We are all of Earth's children
we are all the keepers of time
we are all Spirit's made of Heaven
that makes one another shine
all things we have are not given
they are ours only just to borrow
there is not no yours or mine
nothing here belongs to not just one
but for all of every living kind
what we use was meant for us to share
and for another generation we must leave behind
for the future of their tomorrow
no man owns the waters land or the air
the morning does not rise the sun
only for one to look at it's beauty
we are all in this together through Unity
when the human race becomes blind
it is up to us to help them see
this world was made for you and me
and for every animal Creator has made
it is not only just ours to take
through our eye's we must keep the soul awake
for this life is just a game played
where we are all meant to be

It Takes
Sometimes it takes a man to fall
to know the struggles through it all
to find out where it is he will stand

It takes many fallen tears to cry
to know that he can still remain strong
to know he can make right the wrong
and know he is not here alone

Pain it can teach what one don't understand
that the dreams are never gone
and you have to learn to be still
if you want to keep on moving on

Sometimes it takes a man inside to die
to feel a heart beat made of stone
to know that his soul is alive and real

This Is My
This is my world for which I pray
that love will shine through all one day

These are my words that I speak to say
through visions Creator has gave to me

This is my hope that we all will see
through the flames of an everlasting eternity
that together we find peace again someday

This is my heart for which dreams remain to stay
that mankind will look beyond the ignorance
to find truth in what we were to be

This is my song to help light the way
for which many will learn to follow and come to dance

This is my strength of my fear to overcome
that what I choose others will become

Time And Faith
Time heals every broken heart
faith cures a wandering lost soul
time brings together the lonely
faith keeps a world from falling apart
when you have no place left to turn
time will remain by your side
faith will follow where you hide
time takes away what you can't let go
faith stays with you when you lose control
time will forever and always be
when faith keeps you from the fire you burn

The Best Of Me
I been around for so many
gave hope to those who didn't have any
and filled the heart of riches without a penny
I walked a road where they said it would end
and opened a path to where another would begin
I gave the lost a place to be found
and stood on Mother's sacred ground
as I gave blessings to our Father in the sky
I gave love to those who would cry
when they didn't have a reason to try
I gave my all when you didn't understand why
and let you feel my touch through the wind
I showed you days of new again
when yesterday's pain wouldn't mend
yeah and I gave you the best of me
when I alone could not see
I let you look through my soul what could be
and let you find in me a peace so free

The Way
Teach me the way of how to love
and I will show to you the same
so heart's here can hold no blame

Teach me the way of forgiveness
and together we all can learn
what's right
from all that which is what's true

Share with me a world with kindness
that can only come from our Creator above
and I will show you a world with no shame

Show me the way into the light
and I will walk beside you through times of darkness

Teach me the glory of what's in His name
and I will give to you a world shining bright
where we all can make it through

Would You Remember
If I was to leave here tomorrow
would I remain in a memory
of what your yesterday would bring

Would you look up into the night
where the moon would shine bright
and catch a falling star to remember
as you wrapped me in your wings
and dreamed of me forever

Would you hold your love for me
deep inside your heart still
to remember all that was real
and let a smile take away the sorrow
knowing what this love use to feel
when it was only you and I together

Would you burn for me a candlelight
an everlasting undying flame
and through echoes of the wind
would you always whisper my name
with a kiss of a Rose would you remember
as from Heaven my love I would send

From A Love
I saw forever in a face
a world of fantasy
from a love that I embrace
in her heart I found a place
that kept me safe and warms
a soul like a fire's burning flame
from a falling of a winter's snow
as the wind whispers her name
into a summer's sun glow
with a change of every season
from a love I found a reason
to see beyond a horizon so wide and free
as I held her in my arms
a life from a love and her beauty
where in a springtime's bloom
together we forever dance
and dreams start anew another chance
that's shine's down like an Autumn's moon

At Times
I know I am far from perfect
I am only just a man
there are things that I have done
that can never be undone

At times there has been doubt
and faith has been put to test
to find just what life was about
my soul has seen the darkness
at times pain has taken it's toll
and from me at times took the best

Still in me a light would reflect
as an Angel's touch I would feel caress
at times when I would lose control

I know that I am only human
and what I done I can't regret
for it was only lessons to be shown
from what I would not have known

At times I have felt the worries of the day
and faced the troubles that came my way
trying to see ahead as I let the heart rest
while to the Heaven's I would pray
to ease all my sorrows away

And though I may never forget
the mistakes that I have made
in Creator's hand I will remain unafraid

Two Hearts
The wind blows echoes of a past
where two lover's now only pass
looking through the other side
of shattered blood stained glass
two hearts break alone tonight
as pedals of a Rose fade and died
where two lover's now only hide
behind eyes where two hearts cried
two souls are left and no longer one
now that dreams are made and now gone
two hearts beat alone through the night
bleeding out the morning sun
as two lover's world come undone
two hearts are now no more
as memories are now all that last
as two hearts will never be anymore

The Devil's Grin
You sit there in your politician suit
thinking of more ways just to take
with the devil's grin
and your hands buried deep in sin
you steal everything from us
with the promise's you make

While our people bleed
in a broken society
from hunger, despair, and poverty
you fill your hearts with greed
then wonder why we don't trust

You push us aside
treat us as if we came to your land
and took everything from you
though we tried to forgive
still you show no respect for our kind
and treat us with no dignity

Years of genocide
we struggled through
never to leave our own behind
but soon our time will come
as mighty warriors
we will make a stand
changing all that you done
no longer will we hide
in the shadow of the white man
we will once again live

Tear's On A Rose
You look at love blind
with your eye's close
slipping farther away
you let it go
then turn around to reach for me
but now I'm gone
you lost everything you know

Days forever pass
we can never rewind
dreams shatter like broken glass
now you're just a silhouette
outside my window
with nothing left for us to find
but tears on a rose

Seems it was harder to try
than it was to forget
so we both go our seperate way
it was the road we chose
with nothing left but good-bye
and tears on a rose

Sweet Soul Sister
Though a night moon's glare
her breath like mist in the air
she stood in dreams reality
a sweet soul sister
brought upon to me
like a gentle winds breeze
blowing softly through her hair
she brought life back again
free as a wild flower
in a summer's rain
I saw her standing there
with rainbow colors everywhere
a woman shining so fair
dancing like leaves upon trees
through her eye's a stare
the world now sees

Winter Sky
In the cold of the night
through the glittering white
of a winter's falling snow
your love shines on me a light
like a silhouettes afterglow


Through the clouds passing by
your beauty burns bright
across that lonely winter sky
that warms me deep inside
in the chilly winds that blow

And when you're miles away
I see your footsteps by my side
as I reach up for that winter sky
and hold you in my dreams tonight
where you will always be and stay
when that winter sky wakes the day

Wild Horses
I wanna go where the wind blows
and wild horses run wild and free
I wanna go where the mountaintops snows
in the heat of the desert below
wanna see the sun shining down
on a small desert town
do you wanna come and take a ride with me
I wanna travel back through time
and watch the midnight stars shine
take a ride down a desert road
where the dreams are easy to hold
and with you I wanna lose control
I wanna watch glass shimmering in the desert sand
and take you with me by the hand
with you I just want to be
so pack your bags baby are you ready to go

It's Not About
It's not about the color of our skin
inside it's all the same what we bleed
it's not about those who lose or win
just as long as you give it all your best
it's not about those who can go farther to succeed
some only make it anyway with their greed
it's not about where we have gone
or where it was we have been
just as long as you let love plant the seed
whenever the journey is done
it's not about those who have more
than the others who have less
we all have the same in the end
when it comes our judgment day
it's not about who thinks who is wrong or right
only words will hurt what you say
and it's not about how it was before
because we're all in this together to fight
for what we have here today

Cherokee
I once had a wise old Indian
look at me and say
life is what you make of it son
and it just has yet begun
you can take it and make it
a peaceful world
or you can live it under the gun
but it only comes around once my friend
and it won't be here again
time's of trouble we won't forget
but don't let it eat your soul
for you are Cherokee
be proud and let the pain go

Learn from our people what you can
let them show you the way
set your spirit free
and walk among our elder's
the visions and the dreams
and follow the eagle you see fly
through the valley and streams
let him guide you and show you
oh, mighty warrior with a wolf's heart
and you will live another day
don't let it pass you by

Now I've grown to be a man
teaching the ways of the Cherokee
so much has yet to be done
we walked the trail of tears
still they could'nt make us run
their words kept us apart
as we struggled through the years
but we are Cherokee
mighty warrior's of this land
we walk together hand to hand
and we'll be here til the end

A Reason
Picture's of you in a evening gown
lost like a king without his crown
here I am, I abide
some day for you to be by my side
longing for your every touch
these feeling's so abrupt
there in your arms I would like to hide
lost only in your world forever
with dreams shared together
never to be absense

My heart so erupt
you took away every dejection
took me another direction
erased away every acrimony
that kept me so desolate
for you I would do the same
in this moment of essence
it just seems so decorous
in these times of despair
you gave me a reason to be
in times of regret

Only love could **** a demon
that's why you're my salvation
you taught me how to love
gave me a reason to care
a reason to move on
to look to the skies above
a reason to share
one more reason to dance
a reason to call out your name

Your heart and body abused
feeling you were used
still you were the one to apologize
with sadness in your eyes
torn and bruised
no more will you live in shame

Like peacocks that prance
and strut upon this stage
you keep me in a trance
gave a reason for one more chance
as we turn another page
I could love you so much
in a heaven so glorious

Spirit Of The Autumn Moon
We walked together side by side
with your hand in mine
through the Spirit of the Autumn Moon
in the air fell a nightly chill
as the world stood quietly still
in an Autumns bloom

We found love through the passages of time
watching the night as it would silently subside
our love we held and would gently embrace
lost inside one another in this place

Colors of our dreams reflected on your face
as we walked underneath stars shining bright
through an endless time in space
this love we shared both together we could feel
burning like a fire's flame inside
of everything we had that was real

The Rising Sun
Do you just drift away
shattered with a empty emotion
from feeling's of the past
promise's that wouldn't stay
now they are all gone
you got no place left to go

So you take a ride
away from the rising sun
leaving everything behind
searching for things out there
that you couldn't find
did the good time's last
out there on the run

Lost inside the mirror of illusion
of everything forgotten and abused
was it a safe place for you to hide
away from the pain and confusion
beaten down and used
did it ever escape your mind

She just stared out the window
and said I've said again and again
time after time
no, the pain never escaped my mind
as fast as I could drive
as far as I  could hide
I looked beside me
and confusion was riding by my side

So I turned around
my back to the calling moon
and I drove back toward the sun
but here in the dark I wasn't sure
where everything had gone
and as easy as I drifted away
in the winds of yesterday
against the wind
it was harder that way

But I fought on to travel the miles
back to where we once stood
feeling crazy that I was hoping
you would still be standing at the crossroads
where that canyon between where things
changed to not so good
as I crested that mountain
of going back
I feared that I have lost the way
nothing looked the same

And then spreading across the horizon
melting over the Eastern sky
the sun began to rise
and there you were
no confusion, no illusion
there you were
this time with the rising sun

White Wolf
She was the one and only Indian girl
all that was left in her tribe
she gave so much in her world
a love you could'nt describe
all were left for dead
except this one who said

Now my heart is like a White Wolf
that forever roams
different from the rest
that wander and can't see
all that use to be

They burned down all our homes
tortured and abused
she walked around confused
white man lies, we were used

She stood on top of a crest
wounds upon her chest
said this world is too far gone
like the White Wolf I go on alone

My heart turned into stone
tormented by their touch
they did just a little too much
this world now my crutch

She said I'm just a White Wolf here
no more will I walk in fear
they may have tried to break my spirit
still my soul is free
no longer will I fret
my will, will be done

Crusifying Me
I don't need your false religion that you try to sell
telling me if I want to save myself from hell
that the only way is to give you ***** money
through your lies I can see
taking more from me than you need

Don't need your hypocritical judgement
telling me your words are heaven sent
while you just feed on your greed
and try to condemn me
crusifying me because of the blood I bleed

And I don't need your so called politicial dream
while you keep on ****** this land
and destroy it all by your own hand
crusifying me for making a stand

With the rivers flowing like a blood bathe stream
you take all that you can
and telling me I'm wrong for who I am
crusifying me because I'm more of a man
than you could ever be

Crystal's In The Sand
See the lonely man
sitting out there alone
stuck inside a memory
watching the storm roll on in
bringing down the rain
tears from yesterday

He hides behind his pain
wondering if it will always be the same
here in lifes little game
that we all have to play
he cries out her name

Feeling like there is no more love to give
when the woman he loved so much in time
still holds it all here in her hand
like crystal's in the sand

He thinks of only one reason
that makes him want to live
while time changes with the season
he tries to keep his head high
knowing somehow he has to try
like a hammer to a stone
every angel wants to fly
fly on home
I'll meet you again

Now he see's the setting sun
a face of such a beautiful one
shining like a rainbow in the sky
he knows her love will never die
even now that she's gone
her love keeps him moving on

A Cherokee Prayer
I pray to the great spirit
guide me through this pain
this world conflicts
show me a world that holds no lies
that treats us like convicts
abandoned by society
in a world we once walked so free

Show me a setting sun
where blood never flows
like rivers turned red
where another one dies
underneath these blood red skies

Guide me through this land so dead
where visions stay in my head
teach me things nobody knows
when this day is gone
and all has come undone

Give me the strength I need
to make this a better place
when my people bleed
from this world falling from grace

Who Are You?
Where are you running to?
what are you running from?
don't you know those darkest days will come
and even if you don't see at the end
there's always a light shining through
and it's waiting for you
who are you hiding now what you've become?
you try to keep it together but you lost it some
so you give up instead of finding it again
and now who you are you only make believe and pretend

Diamond's Turned To Dust
All the words once we spoken
the promises are now left broken
with each beat of a heart crying
it was just one more heartbreak
of a soul alone dying
all the fighting and things meant to say
it only left us both bleeding
just wanting to walk away
it was more than we could take
though diamond's turned to dust
and love burned away all the trust
still it was us we were needing

Indigenous Road
I seen dreams at the edge of a rainbow
and followed vision's where I was lead to go
to where I stood once long ago

I walked a journey down a Indigenous man's road
where Ancestor's stories were now left for me to be told

I felt the beat of a Warrior's drum
where Spirit's danced as now for me they come
to learn of things they would show

I heard the sound of Thunder across an Indigenous man's sky
as Ancestor's would reach for me
to teach me ways of their wisdom
in a world left behind for me to hold

I looked through the eye's of an Eagle fly
as our Spirit's forever soared high
bound together as one in Unity

With a Wolves heart beating through my soul
I touched Mother Earth and now I'm free
as my path laid ahead for what I would become

Blackened
I see no life, no death
their is no now, no tomorrow
just where we are at the moment
with every step I take
that is my future
this is my living hell
sealed with a devils' kiss
I'm falling off the edge it seems
Blackened by every mistake

And I'm living on a broken heart of dreams
Blackened by the ways you left me used
the bruises clear as evidence
upon my skin
your words still ringing on the phone
wondering if you ever cared at all
was I just a toy that gave you control
either way I'm stuck here
sinking farther down once again
It's my nightmare for a fairytale
that doesn't exist
Blackened year after year

Now I feel not the love
and I feel no hate
days I can feel myself drown
I can't take another breath
trying to escape all of this
is it just a matter of circumstance
Blackened by all that's been done

This world so bent
on your knees' you crawl
as you watch peace fall
in every heart
Blackened by the days to come

These days their is no cure
this is reality
in this troubled land
so full of sorrow
your best friend
now your worse enemy
Blackened by all the pain

No one there to hold your hand
you pray for the promise land above
but do you think you will be ready
to enter the golden gate
when everything is gone
Blackened in the end

I stand here alone
a warrior, not a clone
I show no self cause
this is me, who I am
messed up in the head
I don't think so
I see what you don't see
and be who you can't be
Blackened to the bone

Hell turned upside down
Gods' mercy
here in a world already dead
where goverment politics' has control
they tell you what you want to hear
and still you believe
Blackened by your deepest sin

Like rats in a cage
there is no where to go
while they feast on your soul
ripping and tearing you apart
they watch you bleed
as thousands die
you grieve
Blackened by all you consume

Afraid to make a stand
you hide from your rage
reaching for the sky
as you hunger for freedom
still you don't feed
listening to ******* up laws
telling you what you need
and you follow
with every promise they make
Blackened from within

A Poet's Page
I speak words of truth and wisdom
of a love that shall overcome
I look for what is real
behind the lies of all that is fake
to find what is left inside of me
of all you have left of me to take

I write a poet's page
that been played upon this stage
I walk in a dream I make
and remains when I am awake
this is all I can see
and all that I feel
leaving behind what we have made

I look beyond the present and past
through mirrors and stained glass
to see behind your mask you wear
you hide within this masquerade
as you pretend not who you're meant to be

At my heart you try to tear
reflecting through me my rage
like an animal you try to keep me
locked in this cage
but you can never break me
or what I have become
for I am always free

She Cries Alone
She lyes her dreams down and sleeps
and prays her soul to keep
she feels a love that now cuts deep
as the tears she now weeps

She cries alone and holds in her hands
what's left of a heart that bleeds
left with her pain that love no longer needs

She cries alone where no one understands
through the shadows of black
and there's no turning back
as she cries alone in the night
where Heaven has no light
and no love to make her shine

She cries alone somewhere in a endless time
an Angel that now has fallen
as the world she knew is left broken

If I Gave You
What would it take
for the dreams I would share
to always keep you near
where would it take us
if I gave you the love and trust
and promised you forever here

Tell me what it would be
if I gave you the best of me
what would your heart see
in a Heaven that I could make
girl if I gave you all of me

Would you lye in a bed of Rose's
that I would give to you
would you open your arms
to follow me wherever I would go
if I gave you what was in my soul
that kept you safe and warm
and keep you from all the harm

Would you let your light shine
if I gave you all that was mine
would you hold on to me there
in a paradise of fantasy
that only true love knows

Live Life
Live life for a cause
not just because
live life for a dream
to enjoy it's happiness
live life for the love
and let the heart be seen
live life for Creator above
to take away the sadness
live life for this moment
not on a past already spent
live life for what is true
and for those around you
shine you light like the sky
let your starlight gleam
live life for what it's to be
spread your wings to fly
and set your soul free
like Eagle's soaring high

No Way Out
Hey let's welcome home
a Soldier boy's return
with blood still on his hands
look into his eye's of innocence
and find a different man

He looks into those forgotten eye's
where love once use to shine
only to see a fire burn
a past from so long ago
he's lost somewhere in time
and no one understands

Once he had a pocket full of dreams
but now the nightmares they echo
filled with only violent screams
as another Soldier dies

He runs into a room alone
against his own shadow
screaming for forgiveness
but nobody can hear him shout
now there's no way out
and he feel's no one gives a ****

Heaven's Tears
Sometimes she hides herself by the windowpane
and watches outside as the world passes her by
sometimes she cries herself to sleep
listening to the pouring rain
as Heaven's tears fall from the sky

Sometimes she wants to run away
thinking that everything will be okay
trying to escape from all the pain
but it still feels just the same
living in the lies and blame

Sometimes she feels the wounds that cuts deep
of all the memories from yesterday
another fallen Angel that can no longer fly
sometimes she still prays her soul to keep
as Heaven's tears fall from the sky

Sweet Little
When it was you in a picture
I thought that I had everything
but the pain you would bring
in time brought me the pleasure
of all your sweet little misery

Once for you I thought I would die
then I saw through your sweet little lie
and now for you I feel nothing

Taking a step back so I can breathe
now you're only a stepping stone underneath
of what I use to feel in your sweet little agony

Thinking someday you might change
how it was you were meant to be
I tried to give you what you couldn't see
then you played that fool of me
finding in you what I couldn't rearrange

Rising from this hell you put me beneath
waking up from your sweet little fantasy
I'm breaking free from your chains
that tried to keep a hold of me
