the life you didnt lead

Home
Returning
From somewhere
To someplace safe

And for once
As you watch
The color of the sunset
As it paints the walls

And you are not living in a memory
You are vital and alive
You are at peace
You are godlike

And you are safe

And that moment will last
In a place
In your mind

There is no pain
And you forget what it feels like
And you can see
How it could be

Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.

With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.

i want to trip inside your head
spend the day there...
to hear the things you haven't said
and see what you might see

i want to hear you when you call
do you feel anything at all?
i want to see your thoughts take shape
and walk right out

freedom has a scent
like the top of a new born baby's head
the songs are in your eyes
i see them when you smile
i've had enough i'm not giving up
on a miracle drug

of science and the human heart
there is no limit
there is no failure here sweetheart
just when you quit...

i am you and you are mine
love makes nonsense of space
and time...will disappear
love and logic keep us clear
reason is on our side, love

the songs are in your eyes
i see them when you smile
i've had enough of romantic love
i'd give it up, yeah, i'd give it up
for a miracle, a miracle drug, a miracle drug

god i need your help tonight

beneath the noise
below the din
i hear a voice
it's whispering
in science and in medicine
"i was a stranger
you took me in"

the songs are in your eyes
i see them when you smile
i've had enough of romantic love
i'd give it up, yeah i'd tive it up
for a miracle, miracle drug

*******************
i don't know if i can make it
i'm not easy on my knees
here's my heart and you can break it
i need some release, release, release
********************
can you see the beauty inside of me?
what happened to the beauty i had inside of me?
and i miss you when you're not around
********************
i'm not broke but you can see the cracks
you can make me perfect again
********************
you can run from love
and if it's really love it will find you
catch you by the heel
but you can't be numb for love
the only pain is to feel nothing at all
how can i hurt when i'm holding you?
********************
you speak of signs and wonders
i need something other
i would believe if i was able
but i'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
********************
can't see the future
it's getting away from me
i just watch the tail lights glowing
********************
and you feel like no-one before
you steal right under my door
and i kneel cause i want you some more
i want the lot of what you got
and i want nothing that you're not

I saw you with him, and he could not have treated you worse.
Like he was ashamed, to be holding a goddess of the earth.

Baby, I believe in you and every little thing you do

I know I hurt you
That's the last thing I meant to do
Sometimes I can be careless and blind
Can you forgive the fool that I've been?

You know I love you
You're the one thing I have that's true
My life used to be nothing to me
I never want to feel that again

So go around
You say those thousand things
You think you have to say
Look at me
And tell me love's not such
A hard word anyway
Well how can you count on me
I thought you realized for sure
And how can you just believe
I thought I deserved a little more

Maybe
Maybe just once
I get what's coming

Wait, until the time rings your name again
In hope of freeing yourself, from what you've seen
Three years cold underground tell me where have you been
I want to see you, need to see you, pray to see you again

But, no one will listen
We're still cling to your pictures
My love it tears me apart
and I long for you

Time stands still and you stay
One step closer away
Will it take us forever
