No Not Me

There's a hole in my heart
Where a light just sparked
Just a fine thread of
Day to shine through
Could the key to the dreams
That I come to to
When I wake and I'm changed
And alone
Belong there
Where light cuts through the dark
Diving, scraping
Through this sea
Of shadow
Smothered sleep
Fixed on the pinpoint shining
Deeper and deeper diving
Brighter and brighter
Closer and closer
No, no not me
I've gone to sleep
There is movement behind
Where the light breaks through
Shadows pacing and fading from view
Something dark waits to cut out the light
Spying, gazing through the breach
Black eyes swallow me
Far from the light I'm flying
-Fixed on a pinpoint shining
Falling or am I rising
-Deeper and deeper diving
Higher and higher
Far into darkness
So, long to me
I've gone to sleep
So, long to me
I've gone to sleep

Infinite Waters

Something stirs
In thy dark belly
Where wounded souls
Are tempted by
What's borne of beasts
And tamed in smiling
That hungers for
Our prayers to die
I kneel to quench my
Thirst with infinite waters
From fountains of life
Wither you lead
Now come with your woes
To the water's edge
And see thy reflection
In me
Underneath
The grey skies double
Where sunlight falls
In dimming depths
I fathom not
What fears are stirring
For peace has stilled
My quivering breast
I kneel to quench my
Thirst with infinite waters
From fountains of life
Wither you lead
Now come with your woes
To the water's edge
And see thy reflection
In me
Oh waters rise
And take my sorrows
Drown them in
Your blanking eyes
Open your emptiness abundant
And drink in full
These sins and lies
I kneel to quench my
Thirst with infinite waters
From fountains of life
Wither you lead
Now come with your woes
To the water's edge
And see thy reflection
In me
I kneel to quench my
Thirst with infinite waters
From fountains of life
Wither you lead
Now come with your woes
To the water's edge
And see thy reflection
In me

Trouble

Trouble
Always finds me
But today I'm free
Still a failure to be
Is just a failure to me
Does it hurt
In the long sleep
To miss waking to the deep
Feeling of the air
That filled me
Feeling in my bones
That moved me
Feeling space between
That longest heartbeat
An empty song
The veins that once enlacing
Lose their grip and fall
Too weak to keep embracing
The dance begins to stall
The lights on stage are fading
I look out at the room
The empty chairs are gaping
And you alone left waiting
Trouble still
Does it hurt
In the long sleep
To miss waking to the deep
Feeling of the air
That filled me
Feeling in my bones
That moved me
Feeling space between
That longest heartbeat
I breathe in fear
The world is thick and dimming
Shadows spreads like wings
A silent wind they're beating
The breath I gave you dear
Remembering and weeping
Each tear forgetting
You, the world I tried to give you
The emptiness I left you
Trouble still

Gather round
Buddy up
Grab some batteries
The moon is dim
The clouds are low
And chances of
Finding anyone are
Slim to none
Ask yourself
Where would you
Hide if you were
Hunted down and
Terrorized
By shadows that you
Know are watching waiting preying
Say your prayers and hope you make it
And I walk into the night
And I walk into the night
Oh I hope somebody finds you
But not me
And I walk into the night
And I walk into the night
Oh I hope somebody finds you
But not me
Flashlights are spiraling
Sleep in the underbrush
Fear of the darkness cuts
Right through all of us
And I walk into the night
And I walk into the night
Oh I hope somebody finds you
But not me
And I walk into the night
And I walk into the night
Oh I hope somebody finds you
But not me
And I walk into the night
And I walk into the night
Oh I hope somebody finds you
But not me
And I walk into the night
And I walk into the night
Oh I hope somebody finds you
But not me

Bodies warm
In the diner
Frosted windows glow
And our cheeks almost touching
Laughing at someone's joke
There was smoke
From the kitchen
They burnt your bread
To this day that smell
Won't leave my head
I can't help but wonder
What would have been
If I weren't the man
That I was then
How much more
Can I mourn for
The fool I've been
My heart's every beat
Reminds me of them
Remember then

Wade in the water
Mud covered feet
I'm dizzy in sunlight
Splashing over me
My hands reaching outward
The wind and my mother
They both held me upright
As I fell right back into backwards
Hold my breath and go
Oh what a feeling
As the waters rush
Over me
The faces blurring
My sister riding her bike from the store
My grandfather smoking his pipe out on the porch
My eyes watch like a dream
This life that spills over me
And rocks me to sleep
The sky is a blanket
Your hand is a stone
The lake is a prayer
Swallowing prayers
As I close my eyes and
Maybe it's you
Your love that I'm feeling
And maybe it's G-d
This love that I'm feeling
And maybe it's just
The sun spreading over
The rippling water
And maybe I'm just
A drumming of heartbeats
And maybe I was
A melody leaping
From birds singing as
The light fades across the whole world
Holding its breath as I go
Oh what a feeling
As the waters
Rush over me
The faces blurring
My mother holding me tight to her chest
When I close my eyes
I still feel her words in my head
It fills me like a dream
Her voice that spills over me
And rocks me to sleep
Rocks me to sleep
And rocks me to sleep
