Ah, what a lonely little light.
Song an old forgotten hymn until the edge of night.
If we found god, well, it wouldn't mean a thing.
Because we have all we need, and when the sun begins to beam, then we'll sing.
Ah, what a lonely little star.
Never really thought that I would ever get this far.
If we found help, well now, is there such a thing?
You'll never find an answer.
When you wake up from that dream, then we'll scream.

They pull me to the floor, they say I've never tried.
Don't think about it.
I tell them I don't want it, they say don't be shy.
Don't think about it.
My left leg shatters and I tumble to the ground.
Don't think about it.
I reach up for help, my fingers turn to sand.
Don't think about it.
All the time I feel it calling.
Never better, only stalling.
Dance on, you funny monkey.
We live inside a prison.
If you never say hello, you'll never say goodbye.
Don't think about it.
Whatever way it wants, the wind will always blow.
Don't think about it.
Roll it up the hill, watch it roll back down.
Don't think about it.
We live in a society.

Where are we going?
I don't know.
Ask me where we could go.
As if I could ever know.

Shine on me.
[Bridge Poem]
More than watchmen wait for the morning,
Perhaps building to the realization of a dream,
Blurring into oblivious silence,
If you blink it will disappear in a flash.
The end of all things waits for us,
The last of all things will die.
The savior is nowhere to be found.
God is long gone.
In the past no one loved the animal,
Now all life on the new world clings.
The fawn is still waiting to be born.
Anyone, me, you, the dead, none.
Let the cities rot,
Give everything away to one person.
You can say it's all right,
The city won't blow down around us.
When the end comes,
It's here now,
Most come home, but I haven't.

When I lay myself down tonight I'm kind of hoping I don't see the morning.
Somebody's gotta be left behind in the end.
It's just the way the world works.
Go and tie yourself to the tracks.
You know, they say we're all going to get it.
Nobody's listening to this shit anyway.
It's just the way the world works.
Brain, brain, drain away.
Going, going, gone away.

I would try.
Could I try to change your mind?
If I...
Should I try to change your mind?
If I...
Would I try to change your mind?
If I...
Could I, I'd try to change your mind.
If I could make you, I would make you.

The ocean blue, and golden too.
It's all for you if you let me into your heart.
Oh, I can give you just what you fancy if you let me into your heart.
I can, and will, and I will give you just what you fancy,
If you let me into your heart.

Forever closer to the day when everyone who knows my face pretends to know my name,
Ad infinitum lie,
puppeting a cell inside a life that isn't mine.
And I don't care, because I can't.
Carnivores will come and clouds will circle overhead,
The world will turn like I'm already dead.
I wear it every day,
Erasing all distinction so I never lose my way,
I have chewed the worm,
I can't wash out the flavor of an existential burn.
And I don't care, because I can't.
Dead and gone, and everyone will carry on and overcome,
What is worse? To feel or to be numb?

Spun out on the black.
A moment's hesitation, he rides off, says nothing back.
But what if he were dead?
A disembodied camera angle looms before my head.
To see is more than belief.
To see is all that you need.
Watch the world, through lidless eye, turn to ash and find that you can't cry.
The body is a tool for a mind that mostly works on fight or flight and simple rules.
It all becomes routine, an automatic process, and the senses turn to dream.
Watch the world, through lidless eye, turn to ash and find that you can't even bring yourself to really care when everything disappears into thin air.
All the world, through lidless eye, watches as their final Autumn falls.

We walked along the sands of a manmade beach
We saw dew fall on the hiking trails
We curled up and talked for hours
We hugged and I'll never forget the way it felt
It was so different from any other time
It was warmer, more real.
"When are you coming back?" I asked, as I looked down into my lap.
"I'm going to school here, but I'm taking some time off, I need a break. I'm getting a new job, and I'll start school next Fall."
"Do you like it here?"
"I'm liking it."
"I'm definitely going to visit you." I admitted, leaning in and giving her a soft kiss. "I'm sorry I've been gone so
