all that’s left is right [07_13_2013] surrender down to your knees let the night sail the seas so dark so far every shadow of light a trick to fool and win without a fight another song in the air to tease a heart with despair so dark so right a soft and muted sound a sing-along with words that are never found congratulate your esteem for taking risks you perceive so wrong so far a plastic gold-painted crown a prince to rule the throne of an empty town forgive the smiles you receive return the faith you believe so wrong so what all that whispers at night a reminder that the only thing left is right so let the stars guide you down to fracture faith with their sound so right so bright all that’s left in your heart is right

the sorrow side of sundown [04_17_2013] maybe when the sky turns to red the sorrow of the souls help the dead sing awakened by the sound of shooting stars forgotten in the dust of racing cars alone the hours hang above like stones they’re silhouettes of broken bones melodies falling one by one the neighbor up above sends his rain a savior in a suit and bloody tie a favor from the fading crimson sky a runaway child from a broken home of father’s pain the minutes swarm around like bees they’re stinging hearts collapsing knees sending prayers to the fading sun clever tears knock pinholes in the sky as colors down stones fall with a sigh time and space forever race equations come undone that’s the rhyme no one can outrun

mystery land 03:57
mystery land [09_2012] one day when i’m gone the ghosts will sing my haunted song for every soft and whispered lullaby the time it is so near the answers in the mist so clear it washes every tear with acrid smiles so when i let it go tonight with the moon so low sunrise may never come in this dark and haunted mystery land where love is forever gone and cold so carry on like you do your happiness and love so true to every lie that sings in harmony i’ll fade away like you want a shadow only left to haunt to sing alone to dreams that never come so when i let it go tonight with the moon so low sunrise may never come in this dark and haunted mystery land where the sidewalk never ends one day as a child we learn to dream and chase desires such innocence so easy to beguile too down and tired to let it go too alone and scared to let you know too beaten down to ever show how hard i tried to find the light so dark and so right

our analog technology [01_21_2014] another reason to let go of all that’s lost another mystery another history fades into the sea to sing alone another sunken ship of dreams to dock the shores another field of mines another broken rhyme we never need to learn to sing again when am i the one? when am i the one to reach out? when am i the one to save the night? forever lost and found three stones out from the sun forever analog forever blinding fog among these corporeal seas of flesh and bone our mother programs every step we take ashore forever digital our father sells the code of chance to lucky souls let’s roll the dice when are we the ones? when are we the ones to break out? when are we the ones to face the fight? when are we the ones to risk what’s right?
