where could you possibly be on this calm and pleasant night?
the moon is at the perfect height and the temperature is right
my eyes are illuminated by the many stars scattered everywhere
exhale and your breath would slowly linger in the frozen air
what could you possibly be doing that is so fucking important?
the few clouds in the sky stretch vastly to the greatest extent
my head is shaded by this tree but you are nowhere to be seen
you need to be here so we can share this magnificent scene
if you're stuck at home, just sit still and i will bring the stars to you
let it hover over your closed eyes as you lay in your bed, sound asleep
you can wake up late in the morning and not have a single clue
that i was with you the whole time as you lay in your sleep

your light
they left you for the dead
but you know the road ahead
you shine just like a star
clearly standing out from afar
make your own path and stray
from here and go far away
i will find you someday
your light will show me the way
but you know the road ahead
you shine just like a star
clearly standing out from afar
make your own path and stray
from here and go far away
i will find you someday
your light will show me the way

"if we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed"
the headlights become a blur as we sit waiting for the colors to change
overcast clouds and the night sky mix together after a bitter exchange
fortunate outcomes of vast possibilities have created this moment for us
red turns to green but we do not budge, our heads are filled with unjust lust
we are the pilots tonight and we will guide ourselves through this heavy matter
enjoying our precious time as our plane continues in righteous manner
relax and let the cruise control alleviate your mingled train of thought
fall back and let this feeling catch your fall, you will not be distraught
our plane will crash into the aesthetic sea and create a marvelous splash
let us float with the waves as the plane splits into two and sinks from the crash
allow sleep to settle into your skin and your bloodshot eyes will slowly close
i promise you will arise at the next hint of sunlight with a heart lacking repose
and this ambivalent world will be alright

what you really need is closer than you realize
i had decided that we needed a perfect situation
but the presence of you gave me complete elation
so i took you down with me as i fell from grace
there was no perfect situation this one could replace

the greatest plea this old hermit could ever make
i laid in bed that day, tossing and turning like there was no tomorrow
time will pass and i will lay there listening to the kids playing outside
i will wear this shirt until it disintegrates and i will let my hair grow
there will be dry tears fading away from that night i lay here and cried
it wasn't a forced action but straight from my own beating heart
when i realized that it was over before my adventure had yet to start
the old creaky floorboards will slowly give up and give in to the weight
it will send me sprawling and falling so fast, but this is not my fate
i should not have left the safety of my room to the bright lights outside
where your sense of privacy is narrow and the pointing fingers spread out so wide
my skin will lose its brilliant pale hue and scissors will cut my flowing hair
i will smell the air but shout out in despair with so much emotion people will stare
they can put me in the most popular clothes and shove academics into my head
try and throw me into the crowd but i will stand out even more instead
so please let me walk away and i swear that i will leave you alone
too much pressure and i am not strong; it will eat away right to the last bone
you would think that i'd be used to this kind of treatment years ago
but give me another chance so i can stop myself from falling below
i can fake the greatest smile in the world to pass this lone obstacle
watch as i show you how concerned i can be by pacing a giant circle
wait and my hair will grow long again and this clean shirt will lose its vibrancy
leave me be and you will never hear from me again, this i can guarantee

your new pea coat
you're gonna wear your new pea coat on your long trip to new york city
have it buttoned up all nice and neat so you can look real pretty
you're gonna have a wonderful time while i sit alone 2782 miles away
struggling to keep my eyes open and letting my mind wonder astray
and when you decide to return home, i will not be waiting for you here
i seem to always find the wrong times to wander off and disappear

L.A.F.T.S.W.C.D.T
ever wonderful are are the clouds that shield themselves over the sky
excellent shades of gray over splotches of blue reflecting off my eye
everyone has their windows closed and the heater set at eighty degrees
but i am not one to avoid, i stand on the edge of the curb enjoying the breeze
the quiet and easy breeze that gently flows through the tips of my hair
it tells me that this weather has me calm and content, nothing can compare
ever wonderful are the droplets of rain that create this beautiful sound
this is exactly what i need, this is exactly what is profound
so stay in the safety of your homes with the heater working and fire blazing
and i will freeze to death outside, because the feeling i get is fucking amazing

solyluna
we made many promises that day, when i swear i was the happiest
back when i didn't care how my hair looked or the way i was dressed
before the many cigarettes and pills that gave me false happiness
you wouldn't know now, but believe me when i tell you i'm a terrible mess
i am recovering ever so slowly as i mature with every passing day
hiding behind close friends who point me in the right direction, the right way
maybe someday our paths will cross and you will acknowledge my existence
but for now i will live life for the restless sun and lazy moon, keeping my distance
