Oh my,
'S been some time
Since I've seen that face
That flash and fire
Hot and gone.
The steady flame has burned
And still does
To comfort and give.
It's Home.
But the power in that second.
God, what a rush.
I'd forgotten,
'S been too long.

I wish the world was how you wanted.
Better than I imagined.
With strawberries and love and freedom of thought
And I think, When laughter is free,
And inhibition is damned,
Then the world may be.

I Believe

Livin with my eyes closed, goin day to day
I never knew the difference, I never cared either way
Lookin for a reason, searchin for a sign
Reachin out with both hands, I gotta feel the kick inside
All fired up
Now I believe there comes a time
All fired up
When everything just falls in line
All fired up
We live an learn from our mistakes
All fired up, fired up, fired up - hey

Aint nobody livin, in a perfect world
Everybodys out there, cryin to be heard
Now I got a new fire, burnin in my eyes
Lightin up the darkness, movin like a meteorite

Chorus:
All fired up
Now I believe there comes a time
All fired up
When everything just falls in line
All fired up
We live an learn from our mistakes
All fired up, fired up, fired up
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now I believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith

Now I believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now I believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now I believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now I believe

Just Keep Swiming

Well there she goes
Gone again.
What a smile, too far away
I wish that I'd been braver
Thought to take a chance
But you seemed so happy with your world
I couldn't intervene.
So here I try again
To send you my best wish
Go and see this world
Take care, My pretty girl.

O.O

Panic now,
What to do?
Curtain's ruptured,
Wall's down.
Run along.
No help now.
Too far gone.
Run along,
Long, long
gone.

Shame

So you don't want to talk to me?
Fine,
Though I've one thing to say;
People call me a whore,
When you tell lies.
People call you a whore,
When I tell the truth.

Hey Girl
I hope it's better there
I hope you've found your peace
I'm sure you look gorgeous with your wings
You were Beautiful here, too
And I wish I'd know you
Enough to stop the hurt
Or to have helped at all
A brief and precious state of mind
We miss you

Hiss

Alas
It seems there's been a misunderstanding
Between the definition
And distinction,
Of a word.
And a situation.
This. Is. My. Battle.
This is. not. my fight
What I begin
I will close
What you begin
I will hold.
You throw the shot
I assume we fight
And I will be damned.
If I let my sheild down
And all of you.
Every one.
Who told me to let it go
To just forgive.
I did.
The time before,
and before,
before.
This is now.
And I'm though with it.

I don't think
I know
You don't understand
You empathize, maybe
But otherwise blind.
Maybe I'm strange,
Or just slightly odd
But I'm tired of this.
I'm done with being told to just forget it
I didn't start this,
Why is it mine?
I stand up for you
Why can't you just stand by me?
You don't have to fight
Just don't tell me to surrender
Because just. this. once.
I want to stand.
No more falling.
Please.
Just let me be human.
Let me be angry.
