I fell down
And my head hit the ground
And my brain
rolled right out and into the fire
And my eyes they just stared, I was scared
As I watched the flames engulf that little liar
Time will pass you can last
It's time to nail your colours
To the mast, it's a task but for the sake of others
I can see, the old me sometimes runs for cover
But I'll be the kindest person I can be
And I'll take a hug from you if you'll take one from me
I felt down
When I saw what I did
Was just rolled right on down this slight incline
And my praise for the dead, made a bed
Of which now I admit fully is all mine
Time will pass you can last
It's time to nail your colours
To the mast, it's a task but for the sake of others
I can see, the old me sometimes runs for cover
But I'll be the kindest person I can be
And I'll take a hug from you if you'll take one from me
And I'll be the kindest person I can be
And I'll take some help from you if you'll take some from me

Word to All My Fervour
I have seen the first dawn of a new year - I welcome it
It may be a year of really good works
A year of salvation a year in which I shall make myself whole
I am yours once more and forever
I must mind my own business
Thinking of myself without undue agitation
Intense, Tranquil, recollected
The youthful burning irresistible enthusiasm seems to fill my heart
All my fervour, my energy and the living fire within me
My heart finds its most sincere expression in the humblest of actions
Not too much of anything
Man is never so great as when he is on his knees
Above all I must be aware of being superficial or inconstant
I must take everything into consideration
And follow with delight the ascending movement
My days must always be burning like the fiery heat of the desperate
I bear within my breast a burning heart
I must start from the beginning again as if hitherto I had done nothing at all
Outside it is pouring rain I must be on my guard
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it
I will observe the greatest caution and reserve in my conversation
Especially when speaking of others
Today was a perfect feast
My heart finds its most sincere expression in the humblest of actions
Not too much of anything
Man is never so great as when he is on his knees
These days I feel so strange and heavy
So full of aches and pains that I can barely stand on my feet
I must be on my guard against untimely thoughts and intrusive distractions
Especially the first time

Words
Please tell them you were joking
Was I born yesterday?
My superpowers are fading
I, I never get my way
This world is all illusion
Don't have much to say
Why does nothing seem to happen?
We're all falling apart
The strangest bit is knowing
Once it all burned in my heart
But that just made a hole in me
Blew it all apart
Don't tell me how I feel
This world sneaks up on me
You can make it real
Dream, dream of something else
Dream of somewhere far from here
Dream but never tell
Stars are strewn across the floor
This world is upside down tonight
I don't care anymore
Tell me what's the point in living here
If living is just a lullaby they whisper in your ear
Once we sheltered from the flames
I said I'd hold you 'til the morning light
But it never came
Don't tell me how I feel
This world sneaks up on me
You can make it real

Out of the winter sun I flew
I could be done with all this soon
And everything else just faded out
Nothin' to do nothin' to say
Not that it matters anyway
Nobody listens to me anyhow
The moon knows a song that'll make me cry
I can see tears when I look in your eyes
I cannot lie
This is a lost and lonely road
But I can help you lighten the road
If you can just help me figure this out
And I never knew young hearts could break
And I know that people make mistakes
But I never took you for those people
The moon knows a song that'll make me cry
I can see tears when I look in your eyes
I cannot lie

Words
There's a place I know where no flowers grow
But the weeds go up to the sky
And they built it nice, when they rolled the dice
No-one ever stopped to ask why
Don't be afraid of the dark dear
Don't be afraid of your start here
Never be ashamed of your heart dear
There's always time for love
They seem to all belong and they sing the songs
They're just hiding their hearts in their heads
And if I'm not sure, maybe you're not sure
Maybe this is all just pretend
Don't be afraid of the dark dear
Don't be afraid of your start here
Never be ashamed of your heart dear
There's always time for love

Words
It came with two whammy bars
Neither of which as it turned out fit the guitar
But I was already in the car..driving home
When I plugged it in, yeah man you should have seen me grin
I cranked it up to ten, on my own
Will this save me from myself
Or is it really any help, I don't know
It's just a feeling, that I don't wanna shelf
I got stories that I wanna tell
If you'll listen to me
Yeah old habits die hard
Too long hanging around this backyard
Thinking I'm some kind of Baird while doing laundry
Let's make a record again, yeah no-one's gonna buy that thing
But all I wanna do is sing, is that so wrong?
Will this save me from myself
Or is it really any help, I don't know
It's just a feeling, that I don't wanna shelf
I got stories that I wanna tell
If you'll listen to me
And at the talent contest, you know I didn't fair out the best
I blew out their public address, nobody like my song
named industry professionals, didn't like my loosely crafted confessionals
Yeah man they said that I was delusional
Nobody sang along
Will this save me from myself
Or is it really any help, I don't know
It's just a feeling, that I don't wanna shelf
Got nothing that I wanna sell
yeah just listen to me
