the story is swaying
I hear what you're saying
but haven't been paying
attention here
I'm hanging back leaning
and you still come swinging
cuz you hate the ringing
scream in your ear
down, you are always in my way of reaching
out, tripped up by your hands you bring me down
heed this one suggestion
don't point and ask questions
if your own confession
is eating you
if my heart would harden
would you pay my pardon
then maybe your garden
needs weeding too

the picture slowed
your face exploded
all the words you said
that took my breath
and then you left me
lying here for dead
the trigger tripped
a bullet ripped
that shook me wide awake
black smoke below
a bright red glow
eyes burning
body ache
your words, unkind
burn in my mind
trying to erase
the ringing in my ear
the heat melted my face
I felt the shock from here
cold-blooded gush
filled with disgust
I did not wish to hear
the rage resist
unclench my fists
I wasn't seeing clear
uneasy view
remember you
side-step, pretending
and acting though
you didn't know
unhappy ending

when I realized the silence
it was just a day
before I knew became a season
you had been away
clear your head
for just a moment
listen from your bed
once again you'll hear the music
over your head
wake from your sleep
see all you had is still here
take what you need
leave everything you don't there
even though the colors fade
the flower isn't dead
come aware and fix your eyes
on the way
wake from your sleep
see all you had is still here
take what you need
leave everything you don't there
even though the colors fade
the flower isn't dead
come aware and fix your eyes
on the way ahead
should the tide that broke your step
come around again
I will still be waiting here
when your season ends

you take one like the other
try to make the two connect
then drag your shame out from your corner
and ask me for respect
I'm understanding your position
even less than you'd expect
you pave your own way there, so
don't take me that direction
don't want to see my shadow
the road to unfamiliar
I'd never want to go
even with the growing few
that march in your parade
I know better as you should
this isn't nature's way
and I won't ever change my answer
no matter what you say
don't take me
don't want to
don't take me
down that road

at the hotdog stand in the dust
there was this guy that looked just
like Elvis with a thinner, younger face
he asked me for my order
I gave him my six quarters
and had him shake me up a lemonade
and if I recall right
it was just a bit light
on the sugary side
but I drank it anyway
I thought that I had plenty
too soon my cup was empty
I felt the plenty dripping from my face
experiencing brain chill
I gave him my last five bill
and got another with a lot of change
and if I recall right
it was still a bit light
on the sugary side
but I drank it anyway

reach to take hold of the air to breathe
it's too difficult to
I wither and suffocate
fall to my knees
when I can't get enough you
I raised my eyes to where I thought the sky should be
whispered your name again then you were all around me
emptiness holds me
but I can't wait
hoping to break through
let go the things that just can't fill the need
I could never compare you

close my eyes
I don't want to see
the world falling down
around me
if I close my eyes tight
everything looks right
I open up
and see decay
close fast
social clouds roll away

an image still
just in my mind
that resembles me
no caption fills
the picture yet
that I wait to see
but you already bring the smile
just thinking soon we'll walk a while
there's so much to be seen
and so much to be learned
there's so much to be seen
a seed beneath
but growing still
stretch to meet the sun
and when unfolded
will have the face
of two that made the one
but you already bring the smile
just thinking soon we'll walk a while
there's so much to be seen
and so much to be learned
there's so much to be seen
and so much to be learned
