An Inch Away

The sound of the rain
Hitting the ground,
The streets vacant
Dirty and bloody,
Black top, broken bones,
Left turn
To the middle of nowhere,
And everything feels wrong,
Being simple never felt right.

Sometimes I feel like driving
To no particular place,
To ease my mind,
And heal this pain inside,
Sometimes I feel like doing nothing
I can avoid liars, problems and misery,
But sometimes they find you.

Only way,
Look ahead, climb the mountain,
A broken heart, a damaged path,
Nothing should prevent dreams,
Rise to the top,
The sound of the heart beating,
Endless waves, feet in the ocean,
Speechless when you find it.

Boston Nightfall

The things we lose in the fire,
So much hate, still desire,
The sun rising and falling,
The ship sailing and stalling,
Moments seem too fragile,
But for you I'll go that extra mile,
The plants begin to decay,
And I haven't matured since May,
I got you these flowers my love,
Flying to your heart like a dove.

The storm is calm,
The light is gone,
The wind blows,
Decisions that no one knows,
The things we do to one another,
Your humor is dull, don't even bother,
Drip, drip the tears from your eyes,
Slip, slip this heart of mine,
A love that runs in circles.

California Weekends

Failure to let things be,
Nothing seems fair enough,
A slow slip of serenity,
Her broken heart, his broken mind,
With nothing left inside,
Everything separates,
Everything disintegrates.

Way over one's head,
He's falling to her knees,
Holding his hand,
The lies hide themselves,
And their hearts are broken within.

The bells ringing,
Fear fiddling, time ticking,
Now she's got negative vibes,
She shakes in her dress,
He stares at the sky,
Dark clouds and thunderstorms,
The night is long.

The Beast Within

Dark clouds, the rain never ends,
Flashing lights and emptiness,
This vision is black and white,
The ground shakes,
The sun shines,
But fades away quicker then you can blink.

Ashes and fire,
Your mind is completely shadowed,
The darkness of pride,
And now the beauty fades.

A mirror, now a picture of yourself,
Mind tainted,
The look of defeat,
Exposed and explode,
The evil outside and within,
A visionary, a lost soul,
Fading, face this shame,
Life overshadowed by the views of others.

Ashes and fire,
Your mind is completely shadowed,
The darkness of pride,
And now the beauty fades.

A relentless tiger,
Bestowed upon you,
Your hunger for freedom,
This disease waiting to be torn apart,
This light shinning through,
Not shadowed for much longer,
Release, regain, resist,
Everything's a mess,
Visions don't have to be positive
To keep you moving forward,
This hunger, your strive,
Unleash the beast within.
