Darkest Days
I used to walk around
thinking of what not was to be
no light would never shine
this blood in my hands was only mine
as I watched my soul bleed
you could give me nothing I need
I thought the weight of this world
kept me chained to this wall
careless whispers that wouldn't mend
in these darkest days, I lost it all
nothng was left inside my mind
there was nothing left to feel
Memories were left far behind
blowing in this lonely wind
it all turned into dust
to everything I use to trust
these darkest days, nothing was real
mercy was standing here next to me

Just Another Empty Memory
Days we woke up together
and I held onto your hand
two lovers lying in the warm summer sand
with the smell of a passing rain in the air
thinking about the times of forever
that we would always share
And all those nights we sat outside
by the glimmering of a open fire
and would talk about our plan
in you I would always confide
my every thought of my only desire
But now all I seem to see
is just another empty memory
of everything that use to be
wondering about what we have become
A smile upon your face
a soul never lost out of place

Beautiful(An Indians Thank You)
She was'nt Native American
but she was one true to the heart
loving all things
the only way she knew how she can
she has a soul that would shine
beautiful as a dandelion
in a field of dreams
flooting in a smoke of clouds
beautiful as all life that flourish
warmed by a summer's kiss
Standing in shadow's of lonely crowds
the Great Spirit walked beside her
there by her side they walked together
guided by the Holy Light
she lite the burning sun
that burned in the sky
she was the color's of every rainbow
blessed like the star's at night

Edge of Insanity
Tortured eyes...I can't see
as my soul burns in a flame
of cold misery
darkness in a land
that you can't tame
who am I to blame
for not feeling the same
Look at my life through a mirror
I see a lonely face
so full of disgrace
but that's not me
in my reflection
he's grown so colder
filling his heart with hate
at the images
of what it use to be
Things are so much clearer
touch me..I feel no affection

Sara
I use to wait for this sun
that would never shine
I could'nt wait for the night
that would never come
to end, yet, another lonely day
Where their was nobody to hold
nobody to kiss tonight
prayed I'd never close my eyes
as everything seemed to unfold
with a heart growing so cold
never thought I'd feel like this
Sara, then you came along
these feeling's of you got so strong
and I could'nt control what I feel
If I could just lay down to sleep
just to dream for awhile
your love, I would hold tight

The Rising Sun
Do you just drift away
shattered with a empty emotion
from feeling's of the past
promise's that wouldn't stay
now they are all gone
you got no place left to go
So you take a ride
away from the rising sun
leaving everything behind
searching for things out there
that you couldn't find
did the good time's last
out there on the run
Lost inside the mirror of illusion
of everything forgotten and abused
was it a safe place for you to hide
away from the pain and confusion
beaten down and used

Prayer To The Great Spirit
Great Spirit hear my call
and teach me of these things
I do not know
let me walk free with the wolf clan
so I may learn their wisdom
through the eyes of our sacred
of your creation
Give me strength to protect and preserve
what we have left of our Mother Earth
make me wise to teach others to follow
the path meant for us to take
by your grace
in this world now out of place
from our human race
I am only but one man
but guide me to help save
what we have taken away
with our ignorance and destruction

Sometimes
Feel all that you touch
you back up against the wall
sometimes it seems too much
you find your secret place
some place you just need to go and hide
Sometimes you find yourself stare
deep out into space
thinking about a memory
of some forgotten face
you would bleed the sky
if only the clouds would shed a tear
Sometimes all the ups and downs
you been through it all
and after a while
those smiles and frowns
they just seem the same
you can't tell
which is which of the two

Blackened
I see no life, no death
their is no now, no tomorrow
just where we are at the moment
with every step I take
that is my future
this is my living hell
sealed with a devils' kiss
I'm falling off the edge it seems
Blackened by every mistake
And I'm living on a broken heart of dreams
Blackened by the ways you left me used
the bruises clear as evidence
upon my skin
your words still ringing on the phone
wondering if you ever cared at all
was i just a toy that gave you control
either way I'm stuck here
sinking farther down once again
It's my nightmare for a fairytale
