Verse #102

Smile on me, o' winter queen,
Clear my path and light my way,
Guide me through the ice and snow,
Let me come home safe today.

Verse #101

If you can share the pain of someone you've never met,
if you can spare a thought for all those who are without,
if you can stare into the depths of someone's heart,
then you will finally know what this life is all about.

Parting Ways

Farewell to you, my loving friend,
For all good times must have an end,
To bridge the gaps, all wounds to mend,
To you these words I truthfully send,


You've always been so kind and smart,
I've loved you from the very start,
Please keep me with you in your heart,
Remember me as I depart,


And as I take this next big leap,
Through all the hardships that I reap,
Your friendship is what I will keep,
To light my way through darkness deep.

Verse #100

Frozen here without you near,
Lost in dreams now so unclear,
Locked away within my fear,
Thoughts of you in every tear.

Verse #99

Search your soul for what you need,
Leave all thoughts of pain and greed,
Take a chance on one good deed,
Share your heart and you'll be freed.

Verse #98

Send me a message or drop me a line,
Just a few words to show that you're fine,
I'll be here waiting for you to be mine,
Together we'll make it- forever we'll shine.

Verse #97

Life is but a mystery,
born of ancient history,
often filled with misery,
mixed in with the ecstasy.

Give thanks for all you have received,
Forgive the times you've been deceived,
Join hands with all the ones you love,
Sing loud towards the stars above.

Verse #95

The day will come when all this ends,
Our loved ones gone and all our friends,
So cherish all you hold most dear,
Whatever happens keep them near.

Love Awaits

No clouds tonight- the sky so clear,
Standing here with no one near,
Dreaming of a future time,
Waiting for you to be mine,


No lamp to taint the dark of night,
Sitting here- no one in sight,
Hoping there is still a chance,
Waiting for our turn to dance,


No stars tonight- the moon alone,
Laying here all on my own,
Wishing there was more to this,
Waiting here for true-love's kiss.

Verse #94

Tell me what you want from me,
Show me what you want to see,
Give me one more chance to be,
Someone who could set you free.

Devolution

Falling out of nature's plan,
Creatures not worthy of sight,
Given more than they could need,
Seeking out another fight,


Crawling out across the world,
Creatures not worthy of speech,
Granted more than they deserve,
Grasping for what's out of reach,


Breaking out of every line,
Creatures not worthy of breath,
Gifted more than other beasts,
Racing on towards their death.

Realisee

Soldiers on the battlefield feel the end is near,
Openly they welcome it to show they have no fear,


Workers in a mining town know the risk is high,
Still they go back to their work without a tear to cry,


Homeless on the streets at night have little left to toast,
Yet each would say that luck and life are what they value most.


People running to and fro living out each day,
Very few know what they have until it goes away.

Lonescar

Walking here amongst the Damned,
Wings long stripped and turned to dust,
Left to fend and stand alone,
Silver skin long tinged with rust,


Walking down amongst the beast,
Staring up towards the sky,
Dreams of ancient memories,
Stolen from that place so high,


Walking here amongst the lost,
Fangs and claws long dulled with age,
Drowning in their blissful trance,
Fighting to control the rage.

Verse #93

Stars align for me today,
Sun shine on the words I say,
All the demons held at bay,
Let this battle go my way.

Verse #92

Seconds ticking down the time,
Eternal darkness now in sight,
Nothing left for us to do,
Daylight fading into night.


Friday, November 19, 2010

Verse #91

Darkness sweeping over me,
People swarming all about,
Voices screaming out to me,
Please release me, let me out.

Kageoni

I walk a path that none can see,
Just half of who I aught to be,
Apart from all so near to me,
Imprisoned by my destiny,


I walk a path that none can know,
Just following where I must go,
A glimpse is all that I can show,
Enslaved to wander to and fro,


I walk a path that none can flee,
Just watching all that I could be,
A shadow that no one can see,
This shade that is the real me.

Silencer

Tick,
the seconds passing by,


Lick,
his lips are feeling dry,


Crick,
his finger stiff with cold,


Click,
the shot is clean and bold,


Flick,
the gun is gone from sight,


Quick,
he fades into the night.

Broken

Don't hold back, it never helps,
Because we need a fresh new start,


Don't come back, it only hurts,
Because our song could never chart,


Don't look back, it never heals,
Because we're meant to be apart,


Don't think back, it only lies,
Because it cannot mend your heart.

Altum Videtur

What is love but the voice of our heart,
Barely a whisper yet muse of all art.

What is life but a shadow of dreams,

More than we want and yet less than it seems.

What is hope but a wish kept from view,

Something once lost that can never come true.

What is faith but the light of the soul,

Guiding us on as we strive for control.

Verse #90

This dream built out of memories,
That scream to me in melodies,
A stream of ancient mysteries,
That gleam the truth of heresies.

Verse #89

I am the master of my heart,
The progenitor of my art,
The Captain of my very soul,
Adrift on seas I can't control.


Thursday, November 11, 2010

Verse #88

For all the gallant heroes lost,
For all the lives each war has cost,
For all the evil that we've done,
For all the battles still to come.

Wednesday, November 10, 2010

Verse #87

I find no race that can define me,
Hear no god that can command me,
See no war that could involve me,
Feel no hate for those not like me.


Tuesday, November 09, 2010

Verse #86

What makes a man more than his peer,
What keeps him strong throughout each year,
What helps him conquer every fear,
What brings him peace when death is near?


Monday, November 08, 2010

Verse #85

Show me music, love, and art,
Take this weight off of my heart,
Give this life another chance,
Take my hand and join the dance.

Saturday, November 06, 2010

Verse #84

Glory watches over me,
Marking out each deed,
Stories will be told, you'll see,
As the years proceed.


Thursday, November 04, 2010

Verse #83

Run away from all you know,
Leave this place of pain and woe,
Break away to something new,
Take a chance on me and you.



Wednesday, November 03, 2010

Verse #82

Take my hand and walk with me,
Share with me all that you see,
Mark each step with love in mind,
Leave the darkness far behind.


Verse #81

Trust; more precious than a rose,
Much more fragile than one knows,
For without trust we stand to fail,
Unless true love can still prevail.

Duality

Love is a heartache,
That will drive you insane,
But love is a shelter,
From the hatred and pain.


Hope is a struggle,
That will eat at your soul,
But hope is a lifeboat,
When you've lost all control.


Faith is a battle,
That will blind you to life,
But faith is the answer,
To all the world's strife.
