Liars Creed

Maybe there's a prison 
For the liars's lovers fools 
In a dark sequestered outcove
Deep inside a vacant tomb

And maybe I'll be locked there
In my shabby lies and shades 
Will you feed me through the bars, dear
Touch the dirty hands I gave 

For I swear to god I'm sorry
From my broken torchered soul 
And no I don't deserve you 
But I just can't let you go 

It's so cold and it's so dark here
In the crevasse of my mind 
But with a tiny spark, dear
You could bring a whole new light 

So shackle me to your bed
And I promise I will stay 
You can hold me there forever
I am given, I'm your slave 

And you won't find me wanting 
I've been hunting far to long
Its time to lay my head down
Soft against your waiting arm 

Please forgive me
I will love you
I do love you all the same 
I'm a weak and distant soul, dear
But someday I'll become sane 

Won't you hold in your arms now
Let me hear your beating heart 
I feel it deep inside me
Don't let me tear us apart

Starship

satellites and starships
feel the confidence of night
I can feel you move so close to me
I can feel you in my mind

you are more than just a vision
more than solid
more than glass
and I can't explain this penitence
that sweeps over me at last

I may sway in winds unworthy
in confidence uncast
I may have been on other ships
in seas with darker mast

but here aboard your starship
is the comfort
I am home
please just hold me closer
let me stay here
I'm your own

your eyes with so much darkness
looking deeper
seeing past
crack a smile
tell a story
won't you be mine at last

no bright silence
no dark corners
i'm a secret
i'm a sin
but if you move your mountains
I just might let you in

Current

Can you feel it
Burning bright
Deep dark currents 
Blinding light 

Can you taste it
Running through 
Out of me
And into you 

I can see now 
Motion past 
Every shudder 
Every gasp 

All emotion 
Kills the pain
Deeper currents 
Self restraint 

Fraught with envy 
Fraught with voice 
Feel the power
Make the choice 

Is it in you? 
Is it in me? 
What's the color.. 
What will be? 

Soundless echos 
Crying out
See the lighting 
Feel the shout 

Timeless buring 
Endless fall 
Are we still standing 
Or must we crawl 

Through the darkness
Through the light 
Hold me closer 
Make me alright

Somewhere

Kindest circles
Darkest dreams
And yes you say it
But what's it mean

And as I look 
Into your eyes
Is this real
Or some disguise 

What's the verdict 
What's the call
Will you catch me
Or watch me fall

Sometimes darkness 
Sometimes light 
Sometimes shadows 
Sometimes fright 

Can you feel it 
Tension strapped
Are you with me
Or have you gone back 

Not my question 
Not my call
I'll keep listening 
To hear them all 

Maybe somewhere 
In the breeze 
I'll find your answer
Lives in me
