Starlight rains upon my windowsill
Silent trains rolling past the chill of June
You are the rain
You are the rain
You are the rain over me
Seize the hanging thread that I won't cut off
And the weeping child who can’t cry out
You are the rain
You are the rain
You are the rain over me
Over the wall we go
Into the great unknown
My brother and my friends
Over the wall again
You are the beauty in the street without a name
And Your vanity and screams all sound the same
Praising a love which you left undone
You hold a piece of everyone
You are the rain
You are the rain
You are the rain over me
Over the wall we go
Into the great unknown
My brother and my friends
Over the wall again

The Moon is speaking to me tonight
Like Long lost lovers who hold so tight
My feet pound the ground, I cannot stay
So I look for your eyes to take me away
Cause I'll be leaving soon
So look to the moon
Everytime I hear your call
My mind goes to a rushing fall
Every scream in your dream takes you away
But I find you here awake the next day
Cause I'll be leaving soon
So look to the moon
Look to the moon
As I try to catch the light that’s covering you
Fate has found a way today
To cover our lives and stay
Hoping for a wake up call
Is praying for eternal fall
Weeping trees and tangled plants
Stops dying love and burned romance
A Spider's web a glistening string
A fires trance I'll wait for you sing
Cause I'll be leaving soon
So look to the moon
Look to the moon
As I try to catch the light that’s covering you
Look to the moon
Look to the moon
As I take a trip to the moon

I would like to see you home
In a life you’ve never known
I would like to see you there
In the garden we both share
You can Kiss me there
and Muss my hair
Kiss me outside
the throne room air
I will keep the trinkets here
Keep them pinned above my head
And I sleep under the trees
I want you to call your bed
You can Kiss me here
and Muss my hair
Kiss me outside
the throne room air
I will kiss you while your sleeping here
I will kiss you in your dreams
I will hold your blankets dear to me
I will hold your trinkets here for all to see
I’ll advance a thousand leagues
To show you how much I care
I’ll stand beside your throne
Because it’s each other that we own
Don’t forget
Cause I can hear your will
And I’m not willing to forget
You can Kiss me here
and Muss my hair
Kiss me outside
the throne room air

If I steal you away
From your lover's arms
Would you want to stay?
Would you lose your charm?
Awake leave this alone
Because you're still my home
Are you a shower of tricks?
Are you that cold?
Bisou Au clair de la lune
If I steal you away
From your lover's arms
Would you want to stay?
Would you lose your charm?
Bisou Au clair de la lune

A Day In The Street

I spent a day in the street
With everyone I knew and
I gave my attention to
To anyone but you
So you could see, you're not the only one I see
But I wore the shirt you made for me
I lied
I lied
I wanted you to see me too
I wanted you to see me too
But you had different plans
Than the sweat in my hands oh
You see
You see
What everyone knows but me
You see
You see
What everyone knows but me
What everyone knows but me
What everyone knows but me
And I could be a friend now and then
Oh Oh You see
You see
That this had an end oh oh
You See
You See
This had to end oh oh
This had to end oh oh
This had to end oh oh

We’ll take all we have as seeds and
Wait until they sprouts new leaves and
I’ll offer up an olive branch and
You’ll return with a knowing glance and
We’ll turn our black into lilac and
We'll turn our black into lilac and
We’ll take all our planted seeds and
Wash clean all our dirty leaves and
We’ll take on each others plight and
Cast our snakes into the night and
We’ll turn our black into lilac and
We'll turn our black Into lilac and
We’re reborn and recast
Into what the other lacks and
We’re reborn and recast
Into what the other lacks and
While no one is looking back
We’ll turn the olives lilac and
We'll turn out black Into lilac and
We'll turn our black into lilac and
All daughters deserve a home
One that they can call their own and
You deserve a golden home
So much more than I can show you and
I’ll stitch together valentines and
Quilt together what is yours and mine and
I’ll give you everything you need and
take away all your nose bleeds and
I’m not sorry That your blood is on me
I’m not sorry that your blood is on me
I’m not sorry about the bruises on me
I’m not sorry that your blood is on me
We’ll turn our black Into lilac and
We'll turn our black into lilac and
We’re reborn and recast
Into what the other lacks and
We’re reborn and recast
Into what the other lacks and
We’ll turn our black into lilac and

Oh Marian

Your features glow
And radiate from mine to you
Stronger than the sun
Incandescent one
Slow dance with you
And drift in and out of sleep
I know my heart is yours
And yours is mine to love for good
You’re Marian
To me
More than any tree
or stream or precious stone
I own would be enough for you
Or me to say
You deserve the sun
and you deserve the moon
And so much more than I
could give to you to say
You’re Marian
To me
Your features glow
And radiate from mine to you
Stronger than the sun
Incandescent one
Slow dance with you
And drift in and out of sleep
I know my heart is yours
And yours is mine to love for good
You're Marian
To Me
You're Lúthien
To Me

Endless Sea
03:54

Whisper words that we need to hear
The silent wood is the perfect place to care
I see you there In a hollowed out oak of despair
Fingers reaching out to
Touch the hand
Of the one I plan to wed
with a band
And be anyone to be
Perfectly new
It's so serene on an endless sea with you
Running off the miles of frozen deep
I’ll breathe the cold to warm you underneath
I see you there in the roots which speak to me
I’ll carve both our names to
Leave a mark
Into the bark
For everyone to see
In the dark
The trees hold the name
Of you and me
So serene on an endless sea with you
Now I see you walk
Into my sight
You're dressed in white
The day has
Finally come
The day is
Finally won
The birds have
Flown away
The swan
Is here to stay
Perfectly pristine
Into the dawn unseen
Slipstreams to nowhere near
Where our Fears will disappear
From you
So serene on an endless sea with you
On an endless sea with you

Sleep
04:13

Breaking veins
And castle walls
Bringing time
To a crawl
Feeling lost
Without repose
I was just a boy
Without a hope
You ghost
You ghost
I will bury in the time
Before i’m grown
A vacant smile
And silent eyes
An empty room
And your demise
Cut me deep
With words I’ll keep
I was just a boy
Who needed sleep
Take my bones
Take my blood
Take everything
From the day I start
Give me lies
Give me guilt
But don’t lie
About your pills
You ghost
You ghost
I will bury in the time
Before I’m grown
You Ghost

Dew sits on my tongue tonight
A Steal from every moon lite night
Symptomatic caution winds
Blows the tangled thoughts in again
Imbue
Bathing in my tomb to keep
The blustery calm that peace will need
Such a very soothing sigh
To heed the very Ghouls out tonight
Imbue
Blankets call to see
What you mean to be
See the teary dear
A sirens call to hear
Watching out for years
The words are coming clear
