Quicksand

One hole – is all it takes to sink a boat
One dose – is all it takes to end a life
I know – you’re scared to give up control
Don’t go – I’m begging you for one more night
We’re covered in quicksand and drowning fast
Turning our future to our past
The spark ignites and our love burns, we’re at the point of no return
We’re drowning in quicksand now
I know – the writing was on the wall
You chose – to see our flag as red
Oh no – here comes the familiar fall
Don’t go – please don’t call the time of death
We’re covered in quicksand and drowning fast
Turning our future to our past
The spark ignites and our love burns, we’re at the point of no return
We’re covered in quicksand and drowning fast
You fabricated, and re-evaluated
Planted evidence that wasn’t there
Will you stop pretending that I need defending
And this crumbling house can be repaired
What if – we took a step back from this ledge
But one rift – is all it takes to drive a wedge
We’re covered in quicksand and drowning fast
Turning our future to our past
The spark ignites and our love burns, we’re at the point of no return
We’re covered in quicksand up to our heads, can we hold on for one more breath
We’re covered in quicksand and drowning fast
Turning our future to our past
The spark ignites and our love burns, we’re at the point of no return
We’re drowning in quicksand now

Tired from the road, he only wanted to go home
But it’s a temporary reprieve from the only life he knows
All the torture he’s endured, all his dreams have been obscured
Now disease has filled his mind and he’s convinced he’s found the cure!
He’s hurting deep inside, as she opens up her eyes
To find the man that she once loved is somehow different tonight
So he takes her by the hand, trying to make her understand
That on this night they’ll both take flight and they will never have to land!
Take your last breath, I will no longer be denied
I love you to death, can’t you see?
I have nothing left, I will meet you on the other side
So take your last breath, forever’s gonna start tonight.
No one knows the pain within because he hasn’t let them in
And with a Bible in his hands he plans to wash away his sin
He’s staring at the door, she didn’t know he was at war
So he whispers that he loves her and they’ll find peace forevermore.
He lost control
Couldn’t breathe no more
He was searching for relief from the darkness and the grief
It was too much
You always hurt the ones you love…
Take your last breath, I will no longer be denied
I love you to death, can’t you see?
I have nothing left, I will meet you on the other side
So take your last breath, forever’s gonna start, forever’s gonna start tonight.

A New Constellation

A new constellation, revealed in the sky
The voice of the nation, rang out in the night
The poet and madman, occupying the same space
The end of an era, culminating in this place
That night you sang your song, we sang along
11 million strong
Tonight we sing as one, but when the stage is gone
The music carries on
The hornet that stung you, it got us too
As Kingston came unglued, and life’s gone askew
You were ahead, by more than a century
We were invested, fully completely
That night you sang your song, we sang along
11 million strong
Tonight we sing as one, but when the stage is gone
The music carries on
When it’s all done…
You will live on
A long time running, never long enough
With courage so stunning, you spread your love
That night you sang your song, we sang along
11 million strong
Tonight we sing as one, but when the stage is gone
The music carries on
When it’s all done…
You will live on

My Reality

Dear Reality
In security
Were you justified?
Intercepting lies
I saw something I can’t unsee
And now the burden falls on me
The truth is right there on the page
As everyone just looks away
It’s all a lie, it’s all a con
And they believe in what they want
It’s overload, I can’t go on
The threat is real, they have to know the truth
So let that whistle blow
Please don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just a passenger
So what comes tomorrow?
As the world becomes a stage, we can only try to change
The course of history
Don’t give up, sing your song, we can fight to right this wrong
My Reality
Tell me what this place meant
Dirty, leaky basement
Storm on the horizon
Can’t stay on this island
The mob has gathered on the lawn
With torches lit and weapons drawn
They left you buried in a cage
They killed the light, and burned the page
Society, why can’t they see
The forest for the single trees
Paranoia, dystopia
This is real, they had to know the truth
So let that whistle blow
Do with me what you will, come in for the kill
So what comes tomorrow?
As the world becomes a stage, we can only try to change
The course of history
Don’t give up, sing your song, we can fight to right this wrong
My Reality
Maybe someday this all will end
Maybe they’ll be something to defend
As the world becomes a stage, we can only try to change
The course of history
Don’t give up, sing your song, we can fight to right this wrong
My Reality

Glitter

You were a million miles away from my front door
Now it seems you’re a million more
I always thought we’d return again someday
It all fell apart, well at least I tried
But looking back, well it seems I lied
Now I sleep in this empty bed I’ve made
And now, it’s all that I can do
To try, not to think of you
And hope this feeling someday will be replaced
Old roads can lead you someplace new
If you’re not scared to make a move
Take a chance; this doesn’t have to be the end.
Walls can be broken if we try
Even damaged wings can fly
Minds can change; even broken hearts can mend.
Where there’s smoke, there was a flame
All that glitters… can fade.
These memories are ghosts that haunt me still
Like a cancer in my mind that I can’t kill
But it’s killing me, this game that I can’t win.
If I get you and you get me,
Why can’t we get it right, why can’t we agree?
I’m at your door, come on just let me in.
And now, so much time has passed
And wounds, turn into scars that last
Maybe if we try, again we can begin.
Old roads can lead you someplace new
If you’re not scared to make a move
Take a chance; this doesn’t have to be the end.
Walls can be broken if we try
Even damaged wings can fly
Minds can change; even broken hearts can mend.
Where there’s smoke, there was a flame
All that glitters…
Will fade away with time
The words will cease to rhyme
You’re a bad habit I can’t give up
An addiction to a lethal love
I’ll fade from your mind
Disappear from your life
I’m stranded on a platform without a connection
Lost in this world without your affection again.
Old roads can lead you someplace new
If you’re not scared to make a move
Take a chance; this doesn’t have to be the end.
Walls can be broken if we try
Even damaged wings can fly
Minds can change; even broken hearts can mend.
