WIND Standing at an open road Asking my heart for direction Vast, as vast as the sky Lie all the possibilities of things to come Oh I wish that something, Someone can just give me an answer Vast are the questions that yearn to be answered So many choices, hurts, and pains As many as the tears that pour From the eyes of a being Who has been torn apart There are times I know what I want But there are others When I want to be strong And try to get by Do I ever know any answers? Will I ever? Why should I even try to figure things out? Choices become memories And memories are left behind |

Do you know if real love lasts a lifetime Many outside forces hinder true vision A kiss, once shared |

OPPOSING FORCES What do I want to tell you? There is so much to say But not enough words to say it with You seemed to embody everything I wanted Everything I longed for And everything that made up so many nights' dreams But I was to be awakened from these dreams So rapidly that I didn't even realize what went wrong why the sudden shift from something to nothing How can these words of supposed strong and true emotion just wash away Like the sands of time Was it me or was it you? Who should be hurt? Who should cry? And Who will remain the same? Whose heart has shattered? This is the endless game we both played Never ending or stopping for casualties What happened to what we shared? Am I just supposed to forget forget we kissed forget that I cared Or should I just forget that there was even you Maybe that would make us both feel better I really just want to be angry at you I want to yell at you and make you feel hurt I want you to cry cry nights when you feel you don't matter anymore to anyone I want you to lie awake and wonder what could have made you so horrible to another human being More than anything I want you to love me That is what it ultimately comes down to It wouldn't matter if I didn't care It wouldn't hurt so much It wouldn't feel like my heart is sinking So far down that there is no oxygen to sustain it's life Yes I know you were one chapter in my life and that there might be others and, yes, life does go on But why did it have to? Why must i try to move on I did not have to be hurt and everything could have been fine But, no, not now Not when I actually need someone to hold, to kiss, to love Not now when the only thing I need Is not only to love but to be loved And want to love that person in return And definitely not now when lonely nights drift into lonely, heartsick days And not now when I live to repeat the cycle daily I want to be able to say I hate you So much But the truth is that this love in my heart never dies It just changes But my feelings, i know hold little bearing in your world And in my world Life must go on |

| REMARKABLE ASSERTION Let's talk about love Let's talk about all the things You meant to me Let's talk about the pain I feel because we are no longer to be Let's talk about the love your heart felt Let's talk about how much you meant to me More than all, let's talk about the pain I felt when you said it was over Let's talk about the love you said was true But then let's talk about how it was severed Let me tell you about the feelings That won't go away Let me tell you how I hurt everyday Let me tell you how my heart cries And the tears that fall upon my face Echoes all that I want to say to you |

| THE CHAMPION Expectations arise What will you be? The dream light surrounds you Float toward me like the angel I see you as this But expectations can hurt What if you aren't the great one The pedestal kicked from under you Down to my level you will come Then we will see eye to eye The workings of your mind will be known then The unattainable you will be near Am I up for the surprise of you? Don't disappoint Be the you that is embedded in my mind Kiss and smile Love and don' speak Touch but don't push for more Be my ideal I will need you forever |
|||
| YESTERDAY IT HURT Here I go on my own Do I need somebody, am I all alone? Facing the wind blowing and scratching at the skin Burning and pain makes me smile This lonesome life makes me stronger Another day, and I am stronger Walking and stumbling The rain beats down on me Who will protect me? No one I am one Alone in this war Fighting for my heart Searching through the throngs of adversaries Searching for the one to take away the echoing cavern Commiserate for my shattered heart I am alone and you are the antidote But until I find you I will be stronger than days gone by |

SUBSTITUTION FACTOR Laook at all i've been handed All pain and decisions Why is it that my hands are filled to it's capacity There are more and more things being handed off onto my hands, my heart, my head Why don't I just cry? People handing off their problems Handing off their snares Handing off things I don't want And cannot bear Standing all alone With arms open wide Your problems outweighing my own Wait...Why? Only because I don't scream out Because I can't stand up and tell you You are blinded by all your own My heart screams out to you Listen, please Why don't I just cry? Why don't I? Because that would mean you have won You have not permeated me yet |

| FLUTTER On the tip of a butterflies wings Lie all my hopes and dreams Too quick for me to catch or at least so it seems They are too fast for me to grasp They fly so quickly out of reach I run and run and out of breath I fall and they escape As I try to find my way Through the forest to the day When I can catch my dreams and say This is where I hope to stay I will follow the butterflies and try to find where I will have A peace of mind |

LIVING IN A SEASON The cycle of living enthralls me It keeps my skies blue And my water's running It keeps your kiss tasting sweet And your touch ever tender It makes me want to run and proclaim And be happy that life has been Beautifully handed to me The cycle of living that I long for Makes me yearn just to have you near me To smell your hair And feel your presence Never fleeting Always wanting to be near My cycle of living For you Has been broken |
