as i turn

sometimes it seems
like the void is larger than life
and i’ve none to give,
nothing to say
at the ending of the day

as i turn to go
man made prints in the snow
lines entwine
and in time it will show

dusk day fades in grey
i won’t let me slip away


out of rope

so here i am
once again
still i can’t help
but wonder why
i’m coming back
i fail to see
that what once was
has passed us by

the howling wolf
the sleepless lamb
am i to blame?
and what’s the crime?
i’m pulling in
i’m out of rope
out of line?
or out of hope??


eden

take the railroad to the ending of the rainbow
through the pain to salvation
show us how to find the way to the beginning
lost and found, homeward bound

bite the fruit and leave the life you've lived behind you
don't look down, keep climbing
tell us more about the things that we will find
once we're whole, once we're through and born anew

show devotion and I will give you your freedom,
composure and redemption
prove your faith to me and I will set you free
once we're whole, once we're through
when we are born anew


one hole

most of the stones remain unturned
pretending may well be larger than knowing
unfullfilled dreams stay intact
as long as the world will keep from turning

nothing changes
feel the beating of time
your beauty possesses the power to break me
nothing changes
feel the beating of time
burning a hole through the cover


freefall

the chosen words were spoken
the mystery's half-broken
the seventh veil enfolds her

i lay myself beside her
in sweet and sensuous silence
i lay myself beside her

in aerobatic spinaround
...around...
in wider circles
...atom...
...raindrop...
...sun...
in aerobatic turnaround
...down...
...down...
in
free
fall
starglow glide

the gate remains wide open
a whole life passes over
i lost myself inside her
