Separate me from the alleyways
Pull me from the piles
Close the curtain on this life
To make me worry for you less
What is in nature to be?
To love you more or less
This destiny can not be
So I'm taking the toll upon me
These people in the background
Are killing me
I can't go out into the night
The stars shine too brightly
Never knowing how to defend what is mine
I'm broken
Shattered with a meaningful identity
You stare at me
Then wonder off
If I could be your hero
I'd save your tears in a glass
You make me the lookout tower to your soul
Your eyes spark life at my touch
I can hold on for a lifetime
A lifetime is all you've got
Bring forth your tender wind
Rustle my energy into your hands
The cooling waters of you storm clouds
Brings about a peeking spring
Where are you off to today?
Tomorrow I'll see you
The flicker in the window reassures me that you exist
I'll borrow your strength and save the world again
You still stare at me
.... Wondering
Excellent condition
Quick delivery
Your words are too precise
To sustain me tonight
I try to look to you
For the great answers
Then I'm shamed
To hear dead air
The music that swirls around me
Is my only comfort
I read the books and magazines
To gain some appropriate perspective
Where did our common ground go?
The transaction for the day
Is to get you to listen to me
Are you even there?
I can see you in the room
But your head is too cut off
A golden boy
Without any cares
The light and hope
In a dark universe
A gift is granted upon his house
Shadows loom beneath his heart
The miracle of song is ringing clear
This day of clarity is no longer free
Finding her is what he needs
Kissing her is what he craves
Living these days in the dark
May bring about a lonely heart
She will not worry for him anymore
It was never in her nature
She leaves without seeing him
This golden boy wasn't meant to shine
