Something like forever is sailing the snowbound wind Feeling lace stockings underneath her hand Someone is the hero and someone plays the fool Heartless in the heartland; it's a trial by fire It's perfectly plastic in the silence here Nothing makes sense but something's very clear She echoes like the silence of breaking glass Just falling to the sluice of the hourglass She didn't want a rhyme but she got one just the same Breaking out of prison; she's a holy fire ch She held her hand hoping for a black hawk heart Beating like a drumhead trial of an honest man Love is like a puzzle box open without a key Someone call the ambulance; it's a mythic fire ch It's perfectly plastic...

Same is same as same it was And it's as same as it will ever be So try to be free Give and give then give again Keep on giving like the giving tree She's the one to receive Hold her with diamond hands Blue Indigo Violet Give her your clutching pearls Blue Indigo Violet Dream deep between her thighs Blue Indigo Violet Dream of never said goodbyes Blue Indigo Violet All is all and all for one She gives it all to become your creed You've just got to believe None is none and then there were none None other than the royal we She is the Queen ch

Her best friend died in September A wonder it hadn't happened years ago She recognized the tears would not come So she ran to where they could flow She sighed... A lover can be a haven Or a torment of need But you are a cure for silence And love is the place I bleed She welcomed her with forgiveness For the words they'd never say A confession into a mirror Of dreams that kept running away And she whispered... My lover, you are a haven and a torment of need But you are a cure for silence And love is the place I bleed The morning was unkindness And the coffee did not heal The quiet kiss goodbye Was something they could not feel But then the day did brighten The sky took on a sacred glow And in that holy moment The tears began to flow And she cries... A lover can be a haven Or a torment of need But you are a cure for silence And love is the place I bleed

It's a feminine fire And the ghost girl burns Oh... Hands In hands Touch Just a touch too much She wants to ocean around the girl It's a deep release That the ghost girl needs Oh... Hands In hands Touch Just a touch too much Hands Moving slow... Down below... To ocean around the girl

Love's a neutron bomb Above the bedroom door We just lie in wait For fate to change the score It's a patient game Of pranks and subtle lies She's salvation's whore With the kindest eyes God bless the mistaken Of which I am one God bless the mistaken May they fly into the sun She stepped thru the door The bomb began to fall Dive down for cover To escape her siren call God bless the mistaken Of which I am one God bless the mistaken May they fly into the sun God bless the mistaken Of which I am one God bless the mistaken Watch them fly into the sun There's a bomb above the bedroom door

Senechal 04:03
She's a raven pierced temptress A mist in the night A maven led senechal Painted with light She haunts like a ghost girl Ethereal white She's given to smiles That say she just might If you'll only Let her go... If you'll only Let her go She's stolen the mistress The one you did know Alone in the shadows Where you couldn't go You were the ghost girl The star of the show Until she came into The center stage glow And she'll only Break your heart She'll only Break your heart So you should only Let her go... You'll only Let her go The rights of the ghost girl Are written in stone She bleeds for tomorrow When yesterday's flown But the raven pierced temptress She walks alone Loves just to break you And shatter the bone She's a raven pierced temptress A mist in the night A maven led senechal Painted with light She haunts like a ghost girl Ethereal white She's given to smiles That say she just might She just might

Saturn Time 04:29
It takes 29 years to orbit the sun Each moment I have with you And then I lose a lifetime When you turn your heart away From me It takes 29 years to orbit the sun Every time I touch your hand And then I lose myself When you break my heart in two My love It takes 29 years to orbit the sun To shed a single tear And I know this is the last time We share our secret touch And I hope you lose a lifetime As I hide my love away From you
