please, sky, please let, me go in my sleep
let me not feel a thing. let my loved ones not weep
may they remember the days in vehicles, marking the streets
may they remember me bright, and not the darkness i keep
may my girl and boys know nothing bad of my past
let them know I didn’t die hiding behind any masks
let them know that its okay to be confused and act dumb
because as time goes on, they’ll learn what to stay away from
and let their moms know I’m as thankful as they come
because dealing with me is the hardest thing they’ve ever done
and they made it out alive, with a perfect daughter or son
and though i’m not the best one, at least you’ll become….

…something great.

Whisper Records

Our bodies are machines
And yours keeps calling me to play
a symphony of
something like love on your keys
And on your knees, you stay
Saying it will be better another day
but records show, thats just not the way it goes

I’m searching for something in this heart box
Cry until your heart stops, “I’m not alone…..but that feeling’s so strong in me”
Why can’t we be happy?
My batteries will run out soon enough, and I know I’ll give up. Its all that I can do….
without you.

Those days you ran from me
and left me all alone to think
changed me
and the man I grew to be
was so ugly
Thats just what I do
when I give up the world for you
and I feel nothing’s getting through
Oh, it’s so simple, yet, detrimental

I’m searching for something in your hot box
I scream until my heart stops, “We have no home…..and that man is no longer me”
So how can we be happy?
Batteries recharge soon enough, so you know I’ll give up. Its all there is to do….
without you.

The greatest day, of our life is here
lets make it serious
lets make everything clear
our past mistakes
have left our bodies in fear
but if you stay with me
maybe we’ll make that disappear
