I’m staring through the window one more time
all the colors press against my heart
Every blue and white shapes the shadows away
all the days gone by
watch the ice strain through the distance
Children push their nets through the streets
Like a circus ring we never have to pretend
The games we used to play
run to whisper through the light
Light up the days
Christmas edges close in the air
when we used to dream in the dark
spark the light against the mismatched distance
everyday when we used to pray differently
if I could hold a difference through your eyes
Shake my lost understanding
I still see the outline against your back
all the bridges we used to break
I watch you paint the photographs on the wall
All the words breaking the shadows away
Colors bleed from you hand
Every part of imagination you persuade
When you used to remind me of the past
I never had to shut my mouth
Now I know the future is here to stay
The children don’t have to hide their words deep inside
If we could start this all over again
Suspend this time forever in our hearts
You make me wonder why
You make me wonder why
Everything that we could ever be
You just make me stronger
Everything that is possible
Like a ghost we walk the streets
I know things are better this time
Burn through the focus and stare against the light
Jump against the air
Doesn’t it feel right this way?
Doesn’t it feel right this way?
Shake the shadows into thin air
If I could feel again
Watch the horses cross the sky
Do they have secrets left to keep?
You never lied to me
I feel so much stronger in this place
I feel so much better
Forget when their words broke the glass against your heart
I know you make my dreams come
Tag: words
“I hear tomorrow in your eyes”
I hear tomorrow in your eyes
past this point of view
to rule the existence
We watch children march across these wires
lost in the day behind this window
sustain this look past many years
we start to connect the skies
hold on to me
hold on to me
I watch the voices cross the line
don’t abandon this love
hold this string against your heart
pin every emotion towards the sky
we hold onto every day
don’t lose these years
will time break through the line across photographic skies
I watch the colors in the distance
all the shapes running against my mind
I take the blame for your mistakes
to shelter the fuel against the window
to break a million pieces of glass through my heart…
to break a million stars to remember how…
I see the sun shine behind tomorrow
I start to remember the lost days between hospital wards
turn the page through time and lift regret away
when can we run skyscrapers towards the sun?
run through tomorrow
don’t let go
don’t let go
don’t abandon this love
watch a million spirits cross the skies
I watched you fall apart behind every second
whisper this world away
press the questions like damage
was I wrong to make things right?
all this time burning away
gauge the glimpse of this light
the pressure is too thick to control
break this silence apart
losing every color in the dark
you can’t break these balloons around my heart
to feel this emotion too deep
to feel this emotion like a chemical control
start all the days over in my mind
mistakes like dancers in the dark
if the light doesn’t shine today
let it burn me apart tomorrow
am I always wrong to choose different directions to get us apart?
one day they will rise to Heaven
like concealer to hide the black and blue away
like concealer to turn this world apart
shake this feeling to the ground
laugh again tomorrow
soldiers hear tomorrow
it hits them to the ground
in observation we pray for a new day of forgiveness
if yesterday doesn’t tell a story
someday we will march across the skies
everyday to define my faith
if time doesn’t answer me past the gates to prescribe the adoration
I can’t numb away the days lost
spin around this maze like a million pieces of doubt falling from my eyes
reflect the mirrors to break through the distance
a million voices gaining ground through the distance
to perfect the colors against the wall
I have seen the shadows spin through your heart
close their eyes to remember
television screens paint a true glimpse of tomorrow
pray for the days to absolve these sins locked in my heart
watch a million spirits cross the skies
“code them with stars”
weave the stars like every lost parallax
turn my secrets into the fight of my life
I hear you calling
every lost feeling of regret
I hear you catch up to this broken security
every face numbered by time
call out everyday of creation
I see you set them apart
words calling me from the distance
as we step away from this violence
turn every page to withstand the beauty in their eyes
is this the end in your hands?
spin through these photographs
hurry up to watch the distance
people ride across the sky through hospital wards
up & down we can choose our way out
with every glance & every footstep tomorrow comes alive
lost again in the dark
wake up to chain myself against the mirror
it’s not black & white
when they call out from this point of instability
It’s not black & white
when they call to withstand every insecurity
break the world into my heart
take the test to prove a fault for mankind
whisper through the dark
shattering the glass with the weight of a hundred men
run through the boulevards with a million red balloons
break the colors through your hands to break this puzzle apart
a second glance a second chance
code a million stars past every vision
code a million stars to hide the screams in the basement
code a million stars to build this peculiar determination
if we can withstand the days lost inside your head
I see the traces burn through the wind
every color preventing me from standing still
every voice burning from your hands
every sound spliced through your integrity
conversations overused locked inside my head
mark it all against the walls trespassed half-ingested
Did I lose it all to find you coded with stars?
“People With Matchbook Eyes”
people with matchbook eyes
decipher which way we tick
seven strikes on film
like the broken bird upon your chest
past the point of declaration
stumble through sober breaths
collapse against these mirrors
mistakes end the colors inside my head
can’t choose my face out of obscurity
words take the young from the distance
remember figures like pin-point dreams
a horseman lost in their hands
break the kite against imagination
pick apart realization
a million red balloons burst from your eyes
drive through the wall before it’s all gone too far
my true reflection half-disguised
don’t waste your breath with this disease
lost suggestions wasted upon the shore
knocking on hidden doors
can’t find the words in your eyes to pave the distance
can’t find a way out
men waste away fallen with haste
laughter half-spoken splinters a faceless disguise
patients watch children draw through magazines
lost in hospital wards to count away time
colors in the hall ingest the future sparked like multiplicity
eyes stab my insecurities
every witness they guide to the promise land
every weakness torn apart by forgiveness
which way we break the days of turmoil
men stand in the distance
break apart their pride through shores on the hill
run through time falling like horsemen
every book on film torn through the wind
I catch you in the distance in a figurine
men locked across voices
drive past my youth to breach the hidden voices
a hundred visions lost upon time
shape my words like telegraphic skies
a longshot to every fortitude
I see a million colors in the wind
to break through the locks
to withstand the beauty of a hundred pieces
to pray against a memory gone astray
I see you in the distance
to walk the waters one more time
to wash a million sins away
I see you in the distance
to walk the waters one more time
“obliterate the colors on the wall”
I see you in the distance
run down pinned dreams
in the dark too hard to focus on recreation
memories flash by your head
scared to take cover
flash the light but you don’t see me this time
all the colors falling from your head
I see you strike memories like matchsticks
every burning ignition to color my days away
too dark to contrast
out of focus towards determination
too numb to feel
too dark to contrast
every radiation point hitting us harder and harder
every face we can’t recollect
a sudden impact in our heads
crash down the obliterated sky
miles away police scan for observation
he pays the price for the vices lined up against registered skin
all the chemicals in his hands to ingest the past away
to strike the match against the wall
to withstand every word far behind
to strike the headlights to understand
don’t know which way to turn
don’t want to obliterate the colors on the wall
Men Push Their Days Away In Factory Wards
chasing cars like motorcade
reach through your mind
don’t forget the steps we choose to get this far
men push away their days
in factory wards
empty out my imagination
but are we doing fine?
cars crash behind longevity
pictures burned between my fingers
stamp out every frame
run through the horses
capture my faith
shake this pain apart
