Visages of you

I step into the cold
To relieve the heat of my body
The burning of my mind
Cooling in the Autumn air
Visions running through my head
Like a freight train
Rattling over the tracks
Banging around in my brain
Visages of you
The crisp clean air
Hits my face
And for the moment
Everything is clear
Calm and cool comes again
Chasing away fantasy
Until it stirs within again
And I bath in moonlight
Washed by a fall night
For a momentary reprieve
Until it all comes hotly crashing once more

Future Painting

I grow tired and restless
Waiting for the moment
That I find my purpose
I begin to doubt
That it's anything I'll find in others
But something I must find in me
Tired of excuses
Of holding on
Waiting too long for an answer
So ahead I move
At full steam
All cylinders firing
Letting my fingers be my guide
As I type my way across the landscape
Painting my future
In words and images
On display for the world

The Dawn

Like plaster on the wall we fall
We never know ourselves at all
Just reflections in the glass

Like wilted leaves we crumble
For the right words we fumble
Just reflections of the past

Oh, can you hear me now?
Or have I fallen out of reach?
Has the light forsaken me?
Or is it me that chose the dark?
And I'm just waiting for the dawn

Like flowers that didn't bloom
What all does the hate consume?
Just a voice without an name

Like white rooms that turn to black
We know there's no turning back
Just a loser in the game

Oh, can you hear me now?
Or have I fallen out of reach?
Has the light forsaken me?
Or is it me that chose the dark?
And I'm just waiting for the dawn

We're all just waiting for the light
To bring an end to endless night
To bring an ending to our fight
We're all just waiting for the dawn

Oh, can you hear me now?
Or have I fallen out of reach?
Has the light forsaken me?
Or is it me that chose the dark?
And I'm just waiting for the dawn
And we're just waiting for the dawn
We're all just waiting for the dawn
