Blue canvas skies
White paintbrush clouds
Wild roses blossom from the underground
My aim is high
But my roots run deep
Where everything is aquamarine
I've grown through weeds
I've weathered storms
This hallowed ground is where I grew my thorns
My wretched soul
Is just passing time
While the ivy wraps around my haunted mind
Nothing gold can last
I spent the luck I found in the cloverpatch
Let it go to waste
I never found a use for it anyway
I'm bent out of shape but I'm
Doing just fine
Drunk on my daydreams and cheerwine
My calloused hands
My bloodied knees
Are covered in the scars of curiosity
My body aches
And my heart is sore
For places I have never been before
Nothing gold can last
I spent the luck I found in the cloverpatch
Let it go to waste
I never found a use for it anyway
I'm bent out of shape but I'm
Doing just fine
Drunk on my daydreams and cheerwine

Never to be
Everything to me
Always what I see
Always what I see
Locked away in dreams
Grasp at straws for things to say
That I don't even mean
Same as ever
When your life is a candle you say what you must
Midnight heat into daytime tarnish and rust
Feel the weight of the emptiness pushing down
You will grow to remember this fondly
Daydreams and aspartame lies
Say you'll be there by my side
And I know it may look like I'm running
But I'm just along for the ride
And I leave you behind like lost blood or broken teeth
Moving along
What's been going on
What's been going wrong
Nothing going on
Same as ever
Does it hurt when I tell you to change your mind
Do you know what it's like to be out of time
Just be sure to keep laughing and I'll be fine
You will grow to remember this fondly
("I'm trying" I say as I tell myself this is a temporary setback and soon I'll be
Better than ever and well on my way to a life where I have something real to wake up for
Chamomile tea leaves at three in the morning, they don't help me sleep but at least I can feel like I'm
Working to change these old patterns I've fallen into)
Daydreams and aspartame lies
Say you'll be there by my side
And I know it may look like I'm running
But I'm just along for the ride
Does it hurt when I tell you to change your mind
Do you know what it's like to be out of time
Just be sure to keep laughing and I'll be fine
You will grow to remember this fondly
Daydreams and aspartame lies
Say you'll be there by my side
And I know it may look like I'm running
But I'm just along for the ride

Moonlight

I live in the shadows, underneath the stars
Lonely Echo wanders in the dark
I used to dwell in sunlight, I danced with Apollo
I turned my back to him long ago
So in solitude I stay
Cursed to wander all my days
Dear moon
Stay with me tonight
Bathe me in your light
And swear that you will always be my guide
My satellite
Deep within my mind rests an ancient reverie
From a distant realm it calls to me
Frigid winter evenings and hazy summer nights
When she sang her midnight lullaby
And though distant she may be
She is my sole company
Dear moon
Will you be my muse
Give me the strength to choose
The freedom I thought I was born to lose
If I lost you
Come with me into the night
Rage against the dying light
Dear moon
Teach me to be brave
And see through the charade
Forgive me for the errors I have made
And light my way
