The Mirror

Where am I? I don't know this place,
And who are you? Can you tell me your name?
he said "I am you, can you tell by my face? You're standing where you lost your way."

"Can you see the lights? I can see the lights. I've been waiting in the dark.... for you."

I'm stumbling now, trying to find my feet.
I'm off the ground, so if you can see, please pull me down.
Cause I'm somewhere between, what I want, and what I need.

"Can you see the lights? I can see the lights. I've been waiting in the dark.... for you."

For you
For you
For you

end.

Things to think about on a 5 hour drive

I am waiting.... waiting for the words I need to hear.
I am waiting.... waiting for the sounds I'm hearing clear.
I am waiting.... waiting for these dreams to fall through.
I am waiting.... I am waiting for you.

When I Fly So High I Fly So Low

so yeah I'm writing again.... I didn't think that it would happen so soon. I see a face everywhere I go, it is not the face that I hope it is. Every time I look and see, every time I am drilled into the ground because I know it's not her. I find myself buried in my memories... she is away from me, so really, they are all I have. I wish distance did not exsit, cause then my dreams would not be dreams... I would in essence be living the dream.

I have no cunning words today, no eloquent speech. I have no words to flow from thought to fingers, fingers to pen, pen to paper, paper to keys, keys to hammers, hammers to strings, strings to my ears.... can you hear me yet? Do I have you'r attention? All eyes are on me love.... yes this is true... but all ears are on you... this is more true. Questions have arrised and answers must be given... I can only give them in the form of music... you are my muse... you are my patch, my brick, my bird... you are my friend.

"you get me high by day"

Encircle me I need to be taken down

So it's raining where I am right now, and it hasn't stopped all day. I pulled into town today sleepy eyed and in an inspiratonal haze, as soon as my fingers touched those keys I knew I had something. Rather it had me, by the neck, by the arm, by my feet dragging me down... this music will save me from drowning. The fact of the matter is I have alot on my plate at the moment, too much food as some would say, but I believe that I have a healthy appetite... and I'm hungry like the wolf. On the lighter side, I started dating a lovely woman today, yes I do call her a woman, it is my belief that she stopped being a girl a long time ago. Im diving into this music that guides me back to her feet, happiness, it's at my doorstep and its beating the welcome mat into dust. I think It's time I answered the door, and quit ignoring the knocking, it's time I gave myself a chance.





Theres dirt underneath my nails, and my worth is too soon to tell.
I need to sit back down and give it hell.
My hair is growing long, with every right and every wrong.


she says.... she says

"Go on boy write your life away,
memorize every word I say.
It doesn't matter if your conscience falls,
You've got a brick to hold up your walls."

Theres dirt underneath my skin, and these words are wearing thin.
We need to let this go, and jump right in.
With every word we say, you can become anything you want when your this far away.

"Gone for now feels alot like gone for good"

She's a Brick and I'm Drowning Slowly

Ive got friends who will help me pull through. I'm leaving this weekend to go see probably the one person I know that makes me happier than anyone can, and sadder than anyone can. She seems to always be there for me, she inspires what people call "great music" I think she knows that every note is written by my fingers with her on my mind. I can't remember a day when I didn't sit in front of the piano and not think of her, I think she is the kind of person that is going to be in my life for a long time, she is a true friend. She is my bird, my patch, and the brick that keeps me up. On one side of her there is a black night sky, thirty two stars, three hearts and one moon. On her other side there is a tree that shares her company with three red hearts, and lives in a world of green, red, and black.

She is listening, and to me, thats all I need, It's all I really wanted in the first place.

Testing Testing 1,2, 3... do I have your attention?
