You Never Know
06:28

I am captain of a raft
Knot and nail, the way I graphed
I’ll be wild in open seas
Will it last, no guarantees
Ropes untied
All strings unwind
Everything heavy
Is left behind
Setting sail
White sheets inhale
The flavor of life
The scent of tales
It's been a while
Been a while since I've held something true
But you never know
You never know what's inside
The gospel of dawn
What will it bring you
What will it summon
It's worth the wait
Just carry on
I am captain of a plank
Haunting teeth await to strike
Trails washed the empty sea
It's way too far, from where I
should be
Hostile streams
Last strengths dim
There's no one around
To hear the screams
Prayers sunken
Depths grin
A bare sip of air
Then drawn back in
It's been a while
Been a while since I've heard something true
But you never know
You never know what's inside
The whispers of moon
What's in its' shadow
When will the tide show
It's worth the wait
Just carry on
Days will pass and times
And I know
There's a course which is safe,
A course which is known
But when it calls I answer the call
May it ask for a bit
May it ask for me whole
Then if doomed am to fall
Trust I've given it all
And if storms are to take me
Then take me they shall
It's been a while
Been a while since I've felt something true
And I may never know
May never know what's inside
The folds of their hearts
What's sealed deep under
What do they treasure
It's worth the wait
Just carry on
Just carry on
Just carry on
Just carry on
It's worth the wait
Just carry on

A Sweeter Kiss
07:30
|
|||
So beautiful
I've seen angels struggle envy
Their wings were left to freeze
And their haloes breached
So tender
To your traces, I've seen devils stride,
Their fires bent to please
Straightened to your speech
So tough
Soaking all of world's pain
Giving back your best
Let me hold your hand
Breath
You're so strong
To carry so much
But your color is slowly fading
The red of your lips
The heat of your cheeks
Soon your eyes, too, will fail...
Before we kiss tonight
I'll be right here
To brace your hands
Before you call me lover
I'll stand right here
To be your friend
(Passage)
So rich
Having so much taken from
Still open up your heart
Let me be your mirror
Look
You're so brave
To go through so much
With but tears of love and sorrow
It sometimes feels dark
Keep hold of your faith
There’s a better life tomorrow
This was not my hope
Not the role I sought to play
Countless dreams I’ve had of you
And countless words to say
But had I kissed you now
No good will come our way
But I want to stay
And I hope you’ll let me
Before we kiss tonight
I'll be right here
To brace your hands
Before you call me lover
I'll stand right here
To be your friend
Before we kiss tonight
I'll be right here
To brace your hands
Before you call me lover
I'll stand right here
To be your friend
Perhaps we'd have a sweeter kiss
Some day

More Than A Song
03:59
|

Sing to me
Color your words
Color them warm
As can birds
Sing to me
Color my world
Color it bright
As it sometimes withholds
Loosen the drums
Weave in your strums
Sweat another rhyme
To make your way
To my arms
Sing of how (How)
How it will chase me
And lift me
And drift me away
With a hum
Sing to me silently
Sing to me soft
More you are singing
Less I can talk
Pad me with feathers
Smoothen your tongue
It takes more than a lifetime
More than a song
Sing to me
Carve it in stone
Carve to the depth
Of your tone
Sing to me
Carve in my bones
Carve it to make sure
It cannot be worn
Unwrap the dart
Start at the start
Drop another tear
To aim your way
To my heart
Sing of how (How)
How it will catch me
And shatter
And shape me again
With your part
Sing to me silently
Sing to me soft
Farther you run
Deeper it hurts
Walk us in heathers
Fill up your lungs
It takes more than a lifetime
More than a song
Sing of a flower
The pulse of a day
The temper of water
The length of a prayer
There is so much of wonder
And so much to brave
When hearts seek each other
They play for as long as they have
Sing to me silently
Sing to me more
So much you sing of
So few the chords
Teach me your weather
Teach on and on
Either surrender
Else I’ll be gone

No One's Child
03:51
|

I wish there was a wish
I could call by name
And I would just call with that... Confidence
And my eyes had begged
The counsel of the shelves
And the shelves were overflowing,
Overwhelming
I wish it all was easier
And matters not as pressing
I wish you would allow me some time
Before I see my shelf
See,
I don't know much of myself
But I know this
I am songs
And lust
Some tales that may never rust
So many secrets
Within the sound
Of my name
But no one's child
No one's child
I see a table
Two chairs
And silverware
And the sign on my door would say... "Heaven"
And I do not plan
No plan for the walls
Walls have their own pace
Their own voice
I wish it all was easier
And life was not as tempting
I wish I get to open my door
Had it been love
How could I tell?
See,
I don't know much of myself
But I know this
I am books
And love
Some conversations I'd like to have
A chance to witness
Whatever is
Through my own eyes
And no one's child

Naked
08:44
|

I used to believe
Whatever laid there to seize me
I used to believe
Whatever promised to free
Clouds thicken their forms
Leaves descend from their homes
Winds change
Do I
Will I
Every hastening soul
They all seem wise to their roles
Seems strange
Am I
Will I
Naked I wander
Gather sacred reasons
Here comes the rain
But so many questions
Still remain
The notes in my head
Where have they come from
Are they my own thoughts
Or are they your whispers
The melodies I’ve heard
Alone to heal their shivers
Are they my making's
Or did I discover
Rays cut through the smoke
Skies shedding their cloak
Winds changed
Have I
Will I
All those hastening souls
Wake and die for their roles
Feels strange
Should I
Will I
Naked I wander
My reasons slip and wither
Flowers bloom again
But so many riddles
Still remain
The roads I had chosen
What lured me out there
Am I my own king
Or am I your soldier
Voices and faces
Arise now and then
Were they your sendings
Or did I let in
Why do I hurt some
When never intended
Was I mistaken
Or used as your weapon
They don't seem like my orders
Were they some of your lessons
Why am I trapped
With but shards of your splendid
What should I do
Where were you at the worst I have been through
If none is true
When it's all over could I be with you
So many times I’ve had been broken
And yet you helped me mend
If you can hear me from the Heavens
Help me understand
The puzzles remained
And who will solve them in there
Which one is asking
And which is to answer
Was I left alone here
Or are you my keeper
Should I look around me
Or should I look deeper

Time For Bed
04:36
|

Songbirds sing the land to water
Rock to dust and wine to oil
Take the sparkle from the ocean
Dip a loving heart in poison
Songbirds’ songs are known alluring
Captivating, reassuring
Dare a motion, right or wrong
Every motion has a song
And if you had been sung,
Let us pause a while…
Let us take some air, in and out
Let the songbirds singabout
And once their songs have lost their charm
Let them know that it is time
Time for bed
It is said you cannot kill them
Let alone, mute or tame
You’d likely reacquaint with rage
Had you shown the bird the cage
It’s also said you would not bother
Would not ask and would not offer
You’d find a lovely way to live
Their lovely songs and what they give
And if you had been sung
Let us pause a while…
Let us take some air, in and out
Let the songbirds singabout
And once their songs have lost their charm
Let them know that it is time
Time for bed
But it is said there is a morning
With a different light in hand
And it won’t go by unnoticed
For then, the land will stay the land
And life will show unquestioning
Their glasses full and reddening
The rock will prove itself a friend
And the ocean, Oh the ocean…
And down the road you will look back
And you will find yourself unsure
As if you somewhat made them up
As if they never were
