The pendulum swings
back                          forth
                  and
forth                          back
                  and
I cant change it, nor can you,
So take a step back,
This life is all, not just you and I,
This place is more than just one mans crime,
Its everything, everyone and
Without me,
It'll still swing, just, fine...
Walking down the shores on nigh,
Hand in hand,
Side by side,
The waves that quietly lull the sea,
I walk with you and you with me...

We walk in silence with the song of the
sun,
Sets as we sing to the sand almost done,
And let our cares wash away on the
tide...

One last time we lay down here,
Again so far and yet finally this near,
I stroke your cheek as a tear falls free,
And kiss your lips as the stranger I be...

One last time i hold your gaze,
I drown in your eyes as I slide away,
Into the wake so far so fast,
One last time one last...
Dreams are a puzzle of our thoughts throughout the day,
Of what our eyes didn't see,
Of what out minds didn't say,
We bid them no thought,
We don't see the value of what they might be,
But that they all seem to bear,
The thoughts we don't see
But are most surely there
They show you what we didn't see
But our minds understood
They're ours to discover if we only but look
Riding these waves day in day out,
Not even I know why,
They take nowhere fast
and away from sometime slow,
Nobody misses me greatly
Yet I don't have the heart to go,
Sometime wont let me be
and nowhere beckons quietly
Everyone watches
and nobody cries
Everyone snickers silently as sometimes and I die
Nobody continues on as nowhere does the deed
I leave them now to forage on their own
Children I'm gone
To ride the waves once more...
Somebody grew up,
Nobody knows this but,
Mystery played them both,
Somebody was taken, broken, lost,
Nobody cared enough to find them, fix them, and free them,
Mystery took its toll as somebody
was ever greater lost to nobody,
Mystery was a hidden hand trying to reach out to
somebody,
Somebody lost to mystery grew up with nobody,
Nobody knows this, but...
Have you ever taken a look
Right over your shoulder
at things left behind
No?
Then look and see what builds you
see what kills you
see how you got here now
now turn back look forward
and forget it
Cuz that stuff is already past
leave it there to die
Better there than in your future
How can you say you know me
When all you've done is look
You look but don't ask
Hug but don't feel
Smile but aren't there

Why are you living my lie?
