Summer Serenade

No sense of time in these poetic mornings
Taste of salt on skin
No words of mine in these our first moments
Sight of sweat on skin
This is our time, only our time
This is our time, a summer serenade
No time to cry in these our quiet longings
Sound of sex on skin
History lost in this our forlorn future
Smell of death on skin
This is our time, only our time
This is our time, a summer serenade
In summer rain, we cannot dry our eyes
In summer rain, we cannot see it’s our time, only our time
This is our time, only our time
This is our time, only our time
This is our time, a summer serenade, washed away
Feel the cold silver rain cut like torches on our faces
As we reach to touch each other through the sheets of torrid haze
Float away into silence
Rise together Broken Liquid
As we drift above the hillsides where we held our first embrace
Bring us back bring us back, back before this serenade
Bring us back bring us back, back before summer rain, washed away

Shine!

I took on the trial, I took it in
I took on the trial
Took on the affliction of your misfortune.
A place of reflection, I took it in
A state of infection that brought me down to my knees
Brought calamity
Shine out on the moment, shine out of the fear
Shine out on the moment, shine out and be clear
Be here
And on... find your comfort here
And on... comfort and release
So shine up your tears of joy
So shine down your fear of pain
So shine up, so shine up
So shine up your tears and fears away
You took on the poisons, you took them in
You took on the poisons
Took on the affliction of my addiction
A place of desire, you took it in
A state of confusion that brought us to my bed
Pain and pleasure fed
Shine out on the moment, shine out of the fear
Shine out on the moment, shine out and be clear
Be here
And on... find your comfort here
And on... comfort and release
So shine up your tears of joy
So shine down your fear of pain
So shine up, so shine up
So shine up your tears and fears away
So shine up, so shine up, so shine up, so shine up!

If a Heart

If I could stay away
Maybe my mind would empty
You'd fade away
If I could leave you be
Maybe my heart would empty and I would see
Waking up with you in my head
Waking up without you in my bed
If I could breathe things right
Maybe my soul would open
But not tonight
If my heart could vomit
I sure would erase this memory I never could
Waking up with you in my head
Waking up without you in my bed
