people with matchbook eyes
can’t understand which way we tick
seven strikes on film
like the broken bird upon your chest
now I know
stumble through sober breaths
collapse those mirrors
matchbook eyes (old lyrics)

“to find you again”
The first time I look in the mirror
All I see is you
Counting down the days in my heart
To find you again
To find you again
Damaging myself when you appear
Damaging myself when you appear
Like all the ghosts walking down the street
All I see is you
All I see is you
Transparent and numbered by time
A witness to my guidepost
You are the one in my mind
20 years gone
It’s you
Climbing up the mountains
To reach the mirror
Pushing back self control
Losing it all for these mistakes
Walking down the streets to find you
To open up these doors to see a ghost
But I know it is really you
A true instinct
To send these letters through time
To find you again
When you appear I’ve lost it all
When you appear these colors pressing against my heart
Is it really you?
Shaking these voices
To hear you
Breaking down the windows to find your heart
Shaking down every door to see these visions
To wash away my tears
Pressing against the wall
Staring through time to catch up with memories
All these secrets I want to give you everything
Faster and faster to scrape away a value
Fast and faster to breakdown the light
Faster and faster to find you again
To find you again
To find you again
“Obtained Cathedral”
Statistical analysis
Ghosts on impact
Steal an enemy for one day
Stare forever into the light
Fusing value
Scared impressionless
Confused figuring
Given of sensation
Locked up on sentiment
Silence of color manipulation
Driving full battle edge
Panic underground
Days catching the borderline
Given out and obtained cathedral
Sleeping across screens
Gaining epidemic
Caught up against numbering silence
Breaking down windows
Breaking down fences
Saturate emotional discharge
Catching up with the ghost heaven’s blackboard
Diamond in the park too far burning away with lost indecision
Cycle through circus light
Silver screens
Putting away colors like spirits amplify every vision lost behind the pinwheel
Wings of the ice age
Deter rebels breaking the mirrors
Ticks tock of illusion
Heartbeat discharge pinning pictures like freedom castles
A hundred men marching – matching faces
Forgiving choices on the ferris wheel
falling bricks
I’m at the edge dreaming fast past understanding the turn around
They tell it to their faces melting away with persistence
Glitter down
Glitter past emotion
Light prevails whispering secrets lost by betrayal
On top of the ocean when we fell down the escape magician
bending light against colors pushing value
Rising and falling
Fire touches the edge without resistance
(Laughing at tomorrow without a trace)
Pick pocket cold black detentions
Static mesmerizing light
Dusting off prints of temptation standing too tall
Teaching breath to breath fundamental
Breaking free of confusion hitting time with unobtainable control
Losing touch
Losing value
Losing lies
Losing in the rain where we catch the final train
Carry ahead to build this fire deeper and deeper
Chisels away hot and cold
Stare at heartbeat beating faster and faster
Impossible to regret
Impossible to lose
Impossible to break the whisper in the schoolyard
touch the visions of a spirit ahead of its time
Puncture the colors and break like falling bricks
A glimpse blue – damaged secrets trapped in voices coloring the sparks behind their dreams
Distracted and spinning
I heard you in memory lapse
I heard you in the oceans draining into lucidity
Peel away the edge of nights faulting sanity
“skin shedding newspaper print”
Colors masquerade to pivot the clocks
Statues drop through an epidemic
Well aware of the fault burning through the sun
Visions on their minds
Step across madness like discarded emotion
Skin shedding newspaper print like future traces
Shift and collapse to witness imagination
painted across windshields crushed with desire
Like a book pressing on your imagination
Writing against a hope fascinating a million crowds
break my back to kickstart emotions fueling this crowd
Secrets belong across a billion billboards across the sky
Shaking words in your eyes to dissolve every ounce of doubt half-traced from the timeline
“Amplified Secrets”
Drowning in the blind seas
Boats cross a vacant memory tumbling like pinwheels
Stars like surprise to count the distance
Wipe the glass illusion
(From withstanding beauty)
Faces like chemicals burning to dust
Colors shake the lost patterns of redefined creation
Dismiss a vacant voice haunting the tempest
Climbing bridges under needles in your parade
Blueprints capturing imagination marching for freedom of consciousness
At last when we break the bells too divine to wake the dead
Confusion of relapse
Passing down a purity locked with questions
Visions left unheard
To face the silence of constriction
Burning light through day
To transcribe hues of understanding
When faith dances around a sentence reflecting colors lost with amplified secrets marching the silent outbreak within damaged light
Running through ageless snow-filled skies
Destabilize a freezing control of returning implication
A permanent reiteration calculating the divisional value from shadows resolved in the night’s emotional ring of amplified secret illusional control
“a blinding light across the waters to bring us together”
lost in the damaged emotions charged against the wires in your mind
stand still across the skies in preservation
try to control my emotions while the world falls against the shores inside your voice
I gave you all my dreams to perspire without a trace
left in the blinding lights on this bridges watching the ground shake with sound
colors beating faster through the streets to trace the ghosts in my vision
you are all that is left on my mind
to write a million letters waiting for tomorrow
all the memories we had walking by like impacted monuments
breaking the footsteps in my mind to watch for the numbing of the needle
when the streets bleed for crime all I have is your voice in my mind
to shatter the glass with eloquence
visions so severe they draw me closer to a time when we can be together
the clicking of the clock across the only sky we had
walking away from everything that mattering hoping to find you
preserved by the only time we had
close our eyes and watch the blinding colors sheltering the voices we have left
we can’t control our emotions or conceal the only dreams we have
driving against the heartbeat of tomorrow across this bridge of time
skies echo like heaven you are my only light I can hold in my heart
the only hope in my heart holding me together through time
to break the needles through futility tearing a heaven so blinding
ingest our youth and pray for tomorrow
my only light carrying me up the hills in the sky
marching across secrecy the footsteps break apart like balloons
struggle for existence but you build me stronger
even emotion like quicksand sinking all the pain away
don’t control the pain because you are all I have left to carry me across the ocean
ships that sail the waves of hope cast the sail towards the sky
march for what matters
march for what matters
a blinding light across the waters to bring us together
I have found a dream in your secrecy
to take your voice numbing my skin
preserving the final ghost to taste my youth
I can’t replace you
I can’t replace you
you are everything that matters
breaking the needle against the mirror finding my tomorrow
march for what matters don’t let them push you away
break the glass against motorcade
lights that burn with futility
sleeping on top of the sky watching the stars building us stronger
break the needles against the mirrors of time
“pulling us through eternity”
breaking the wing apart through violet walls, driven past devastation
shattering the glass sky between stars burning in your mind
don’t withhold your heart when they break you to the ground
watching the sunset behind accomplishments written in the haunting waves
headlights flash through discarded breath between windows lost behind wheels that shine in your forecast
the time it takes to run towards the shore and ingest the last memories of summer
coming against the needle breaking apart against a fallen passenger
can’t stop the damaged days until we hear the storms in the lighthouse
can’t stop the damaged days until we find the walls pushing us past limits in the horizon
walking across green oceans to trespass without illusions
fueling up before another crash pulling us together like ropes in binding dreams
chemical control rooms gone astray like the reception in hospital wards
chemical control rooms bleeding apart like crystalized perception casting the hue building across city lights
when we broke futility across the collapsed bridges running from the car crash into your arms
when they saw the flames burning in your eyes half disrespected
bending the note against a time everlasting between the intersections of hallways secluded before perspiration
falling through the ocean skies breaking glass against your heart pulling us through eternity
Witness
Don’t Harsh my Mellow II
walking down the street to find my way through the damaged halls
look up at the sky to find a million colors standing in the sky
to remember why we trespass on top of the emotional divide
like acrobats spinning across wires in their minds
breaking all the words in their heads like texturized emotion
on top of the lighthouse matching illusion with the seas of aqua waves building higher and higher
open up all the values of transcending collapse
bursting with emotion on top of the mirrors edge
like a razor running across the seascape
walking across the waves like fences broken like crystalized glass amplified by secrets driven past a witness in the boathouse
illusions building deeper and deeper
lost as sea behind a shipwrecked skyline
A way out above the sky
above the stars in your mind
ships that sail across the ocean illuminating everlasting emotions in your memorized visions like trespass
Shattered Mind
