Let me fall
through your arms
just once
don't be there to catch me

Don't lift me up
don't hold me tight
i don't need you
to protect me

My voice is my own
not yours to control
in a world
that's never heard me

The time will come
when you'll realize
you must
let something hurt me

Let me go
once and for all
let me go
free to fall

Night is a wolf on the prowl,
Waiting on the horizon for darkness to fall.
Then the sun sets and the wolf rushes in,
And all the world hears his lonely howl.

Was it early this morning
Was it late last night
Was it all through the darkness
I can't remember the light

In this era of evil
Don't leave me alone
Because I can't fight it
On my own

Thunder rolls far away
Night sets in during the day
Lightning rips the sky in two
Painting it black and blue
Pounding rain beats the ground
Drowning out all other sound
Clouds part, the heavens clear
Sweet winds blow away the fear

Starving for truth
A vast uncertainty
Stretching across eternity
Into the unknown
Twisting around
For one last glance
Back at the known
The past
The false.
Forward, onward
To seek a reality
That may be real
Or again another falsity

Buried in the arms
Of a lone, lonely night
The company I keep
To retain sane sanity
Folded in the embrace
Of the dark darkness
A solitude I can always call upon
Cradled in the deep depth
Of midnight
Offering up my being
For a sense of sanity.

It began as a sadness
A longing for something
A something I could not find
It grew into a darkness
A piercing darkness
That slowly took over my mind

Must there be a reason ( Read more... )

A cold, hard shiver runs down my spine ( Read more... )

I once had a friend
Who cut his finger
and wrote "I'm real"
In blood
Like in a movie
But for real
One day he disappeared
I never heard from him again
I wonder what happened to that friend
