III Lyrics

By The Waves

By the light in your eyes, I navigate.

Through velvet dark thoughts, you resonate.

By the depths of your soul, my hideaway.

In the midwinter’s cold, you radiate.


By the waves I’m afloat, shivering.

Counting stars as I drown, silently.

By the glittering waves, I’m cast ashore.

And the night turns to day, reluctantly.


You can call on me.

You can call on me now.

I’ll be here.


You can call on me.

You can call on me now.

I’ll be waiting for your sign to draw me in.


Fire Play


Fire dancing on the ground.

Breathing air and burn us down.

Fire playing in our eyes.

Drying tears and makes us blind.

Saliva boiling in our mouths.

Scalding lips through a kiss.


When you’re in my arms.

When I feel you breathe.

I have all I want.

I have all I need.

And we’re burning bright, ‘til the fire’s out.

You’re all I want and you’re all I need.


Burning all that we can see.

Burning all that’s left in me.

Fire sleeping in our thoughts.

Fire finds you in the dark.

Saliva boiling in our mouths.

Scalding lips through a kiss.


When you’re in my arms.

When I feel you breathe.

I have all I want.

I have all I need.

And we’re burning bright, ‘til the fire’s out.

You’re all I want and you’re all I need.


HAIL TO THE NIGHT


So dark, so slow.

It swallows me whole.

I hail the night.


Down, down, slow down.

So silently I fall,

in love with you.


Like smoke in air

I feel you fade in me.

I close my eyes.


Gently erased,

a shadow danced tonight

‘til mornings rise.



IN LIGHT


I saw a stream of light.

A whisper of a winter day.

Strong scent of midnight’s chill.

Tiny feet running far away.


I keep still in light.

Piece by piece I’ll wake (up).


With silence from the fall.

The longest day belongs to us.

Turn the sunshine on.

Collapse the light into earth.


I keep still in light.

Piece by piece I’ll wake.

Snow and ice leaves me cold.

Slowly we’ll melt too.


Turn the sunshine on.

Shy the cold away.


I keep still in light.

Piece by piece I’ll wake.

Snow and ice leaves me cold.

Slowly we’ll melt too.



THE STORM


He stands up.

Speaks of heartfelt trust.

Pain of loss remains.

Cast away the thoughts.


Less and less I care, about the storm inside.

I long for everyday to pass.

More and more it hurts, with every day that ends.

I long though everything’s the same.


She helps me to flee reality.

Hours of memories turn to distant dreams.


Less and less I care, about the storm inside.

I long for everyday to pass.

More and more it hurts, with every day that ends.

I long though everything’s the same.



THE END


I caught the wind and flew away.

I was young, I was light.

I saw the plains, the streets and lights.

So I drank the night.

I wanted it all.


From afar people sang and filled my soul with theirs.

I wanted them all.


As I walked down the streets, houses rose silently.

To welcome me home.


Every face, a stranger’s face. Felt as kin, my everything.

Loved them all.


From afar people came with the words of poetry.

And formed my thoughts.

Across the bay, boats and sails. Wind came strong and playfully,

to blow me away.


Oh I felt, the wind in me. It was young, not like me.


My soul is weak. Take my hands and carry me.

Away we go.


Now I’m old and my soul is weak. Take my hands and carry me.

Away we go.


ALL THAT WAS DONE


Not so long ago, or so it seems.

Still, the passing of a year, I’m still the same.


All that she said.

All that was done.


A flicker in my heart.

An ancient scene.

Playing endlessly

Without a crowd.


All that she said.

All that was done.


So far away.

So far away.

I wanna know why I can’t go on.

So far away.

So far away.

I wanna know why I can’t go on.

Today.


HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LET GO


Morning sets in your eyes.

A glow and I want to hide.

The days that we’ll never know.

Hands to cold to hold.

Cloud holding rain.

I’m heavy, drenched in vain.

To wash away our mistakes.

Burden breaks to reveal.


So I’m leaving you.

My sanity does too.

Our fall is tied to the ground.

How does it feel to believe?

That nothing ever breaks.

The sun hides no rain.

That this is all we’ve been told.

Floating happy in the unknown.


How does it feel to believe?

That nothing ever breaks.

The sun hides no rain.

That this is all we’ve been told.

Floating happy in the unknown.

Save me from those days.

From sorrow and the pain.

Barrier bursts and we flow

Happy in the unknown.


How does it feel to let go?













WAIT FOR YOU


I tore the pages out,

though every word was true.

And watched the smoke erase

the memories of you.


I stay for you,

and I will wait for you.

Time will come,

and I will wait for you.


I saw you leave that night.

As someone new, as someone else.

And in the ashes I found,

memories left behind.


I stay for you,

and I will wait for you.

Time will come,

and I will wait for you.


So significant it seems,

to decide one’s life;

to put order to things

that should have been left alone.


I stay for you,

and I will wait for you.

Time will come,

and I will wait for you.


I stay for you,

and I will wait for you.

Time will come,

and I will wait for you.








THIS BEAUTIFUL ACHING


One word of silence,

breaks the noise and rings out.

Growing inside her,

a feeling meant to let go.

These walls around us,

crackling down, whither.

Can’t stand the silence,

a wish’s fear - everlasting.


I would leave it all today for you.

I would run for years to start anew.

We would be the same but all would change.

I would still be here afraid to leave.


So time was calling

I hide my dreams by the foot of the bed.

Caught myself falling,

in love with art - for this beautiful aching.

The bullet strikes you.

A swift relief, it’s a kiss on your cheek.

Could go from hiding, let it go.

We are born for this breaking.


I would leave it all today for you.

I would run for years to start anew.

We would be the same but all would change.

I would still be here afraid to leave.


One word of silence.

Growing inside her.


I would leave it all today for you.

I would run for years to start anew.

We would be the same but all would change.

I would still be here afraid to leave.
