Tears of the Stars

December 19, 2006The tears are running down from the stars
as they weap for me and you....
they've waited so long for our world to have peace
but the dream never comes true....
they wait and they wait, with the patience of Gods
their strength, as one, is all that unites them...
without empty stares and long drawn faces
their lives, they are filled with wisdom.......

i watched as their words came sinking in
and they crossed oceans and plains to meet me...
they brought me a sign, of the most fragile image
and their love, then soon, consumed me...

and here i stand..

i'm trying to start a revolution
and prove we all can stand as one...
i ask you all to please join hands
our era of peace has just begun...

and then snow sprinkled down upon the empty houses
their owners drowned in constant sorrow...
it proved to me that there's light in the darkness
if so many would look for tomorrow
with an outstretched hand, i grasped this new found truth
and hid it away inside my aching heart.....
now the time has come, i feel it erupting today
my heart says it's time to start....

i cried and cried for us all to believe
that our future still holds hope to be bright..
and i reached and reached for this vision of gold
i've held onto it, with all my might...

and here i stand..

i'm trying to start a revolution
and prove we all can stand as one...
i ask you all to please join hands
our era of peace has just begun...

and i see the future, it's all up to us
no longer can we follow the blind.....
but first we must seek our own preservation,
the peace is for us to find...

i'm trying to start a revolution
and prove we all can stand as one...
i ask you all to please join hands
our era of peace has just begun...

Take a Breath

November 18, 2006So here we sit, just to waste away..
Where light must fade, and so does the day..
Where we pass the time, with each new rhyme,
To realize all that we didn't find
Were the figments of our dreams....

You can see the glow if you close your eyes,
Passing through the skies, with no goodbyes
There is no threat, if we don't regret
That we let life's meaning go, and forget
That there's more here than what we see....

God doesn't promise tomorrow
Because He wants us to
Live... For... Today...

If your curl up nice, warm and tight
And ponder the meaning of morning's light
You'll come to find, what's there in your mind
Was always there to find,
if you'd only chosen to see...

but by God, I say, let's listen well
We all have stories too sad to tell
bury them now, to drown the sound,
and hope they're never found,
For they will bring us down again..

God doesn't promise tomorrow
Because He wants us to
Live... For... Today...

Don't waste your time, it's a brand new day
Stretch out your arms, your hearts
Let us not waste away..
Our hour has come, I truly believe
It's as real as the Earth,
And as deep as the sea..
Take a breath, Make a wish, then try not to cry
It is the hardest thing
You could ever try..

God doesn't promise tomorrow
Because He wants us to
Live... For... Today...

God doesn't promise tomorrow
Because He wants us to
Live... For... Today...

God doesn't promise tomorrow
Because He wants us to
Live... For... Today...

Have Your Will

November 14, 2006the stars rained light upon your flourescent eyes..
you smiled as rain fell down from the skies
and brought you close to me...
and there we stared out upon the roaring sea
the winds were fierce, but brought you closer to me
and for the moment time stood still...

don't forget the love i've shared
and all the words i've said
oh if skies could spell it out for you...
you'll never believe just how i feel
it's though the world has left
and my dreams made true...

oh believe
 
the time has come, won't you please step out
our victories won, won't you come and shout,
won't you come celebrate with me..
and we will share our toast to destiny
oh the times were hard, but brought you closer to me
Oh God, I say, have Your will...

don't forget the love i've shared
and all the words i've said
oh if skies could spell it out for you...
you'll never believe just how i feel
it's though the world has left
and my dreams made true...

From Out of the Darkness

November 13, 2006From the depths of this darkness
The light sparked on its own
It began to ignite, without action,
Atleast none that was shown
And from blackness, so pitch,
I felt its warmth on my face,
It sank into my skin, and
In my heart, found its place.

I found peace through our pain
The joy fell just like rain
And I managed a smile
Though the world's gone insane
I trudged on toward the light
And I cried at the site
Of a thousand faces
Escaping the night

And I watched the ash fall
The substance covered the past
And from the darkest of memories,
We vowed to never look back,
We marched onward, like soldiers,
And left no man behind
We dropped all our pain
Where no one could find.

I found peace through our pain
The joy fell just like rain
And I managed a smile
Though the world's gone insane
I trudged on toward the light
And I cried at the site
Of a thousand faces
Escaping the night

Peering through the looking glass

November 12, 2006am i really so disgusting that you can't even answer?
am i infecting your mind, plaguing your peace with cancer?
am i salt in the wound that i failed to inflict
saying words, doing actions you failed to predict
to the charge of innocence, i'm guilty at best
go ahead sir, take me away with the rest
for i am one of the many, you people enslave
crying out every night, for those you never forgave..

will you open your eyes to what i've laid down
will you ponder my offer, before you turn it to ground
will you see me not for who i am, but who i want to be
a soldier for God, pushing for us to be free...

alright Miss "No response", i think that i've had it
despite all compliments you've ignored me, so stab it
forget my offer, like some kind of ode to demon born
a villian of troy, a traitor bred to be scorn
yeah forget me now, though i'd be a very good friend
someone made to be loyal, and stick strong till the end
the offer is gone, it's been burnt up in flames
and by morning, day break, i'll have forgotten your name

please open your eyes friends, nothing is sound
please see the world as it is, not the excuses we've found
stick to your human values, and follow what dreams you know,
because life is short, and you only have one life to do so.
---------------------
may the world sleep in peace tonight
if even for personal reasons...
i fear that by day break, the chaos continues
as quick as the change of the seasons...
