Suddenly
Like every time before
The world I was living in changed
Someone left a message
Some little fact changed
A window was opened
And in rushed the winds of change
I've never asked why
I've never asked the universe to explain
I just breath deep the scent
Of wild adventure on the breeze
Jump out my window
Glide into the future
I will fall
I will fly
I will crash
Into the sea
Swim miles in the azure depths
Till land comes into sight
Walk for days from beach
To mountains
To plains
To strange new houses
To familiar old homes
To people I've never known
To people closer than air
I will go
Everything will change
It will be alright.

Night, Light, and Rain.
City lights and summer rain
Among the failing moonlight
Take my hand in the sunset
When florescent daylight is dawning
City lights and summer rain
Washing away what doesn't belong
Leaving nights of bright hope
And pure souls
City lights and summer rain
They link our fingers
Quicksilver chains that shimmer and glisten
Dancing in neon droplets
City lights and summer rain
Fall to the ground
Shine up to the sky
And take me with you.
Among the failing moonlight
Take my hand in the sunset
When florescent daylight is dawning
City lights and summer rain
Washing away what doesn't belong
Leaving nights of bright hope
And pure souls
City lights and summer rain
They link our fingers
Quicksilver chains that shimmer and glisten
Dancing in neon droplets
City lights and summer rain
Fall to the ground
Shine up to the sky
And take me with you.

Spice over Sugar
When cooking with my lives ambition
Or making recipes for love and nutrition
I always pick spice over sugar
Suger is sweet in love
Sweet in life
Makes you feel good
Safe
Warm
It's soft like a childhood dream
And as you take in that Sugar
It'll make you high on life
Make colors brighter
Make the sun warmer
Pain go by faster
Love go by slower
Life go by spectacular
But just as it is sweet
You'll find it's just as sticky
Because after you've had your fill
You'll only want more
And every drip of flowing syrup
Will remind you how you have nothing
How the colors fade
How the sun sets
How pain always comes back
Love always go away
Life always goes dull
And you have a toothache
And a sore stomach
Now Spice isn't any better
It's still just as fleeting
Just as momentary
It comes into your life
and it leaves the same way
But where Sugar says it's alright
Spice says it isn't
It burns on the way down
It bites and nips at your tongue
In a wild duel of heat and flavour
Teaching you that life hurts
That pain is all around
That colors will never be brighter
The sun will never be warmer
Pain is here to stay
Love will run away
Life is as dull as ever
But the little secret that Spice whispers
says
It's never going to be any better than it is now
So now is the time to make the most of it all
So when I'm cooking up thoughts and emotions
I try and remember all of these wild notions
I always pick Spice over Sugar
Nobody
There was a boy named Nobody
And lets face it
He was a nobody
He walked around
Looked around
Moved around
But nobody knew Nobody
And so to everyone he meet
He was just a nobody
Nobody didn't mind
He didn't even think about it
Because he didn't know anybody
So to him he was somebody
Just being himself
Like all the other somebodies
When somebody laughed
and said that he was a nobody
Nobody just smiled back
Cause that somebody was nobody
And nobody ever bothered
That sweet quiet guy
Nobody
And lets face it
He was a nobody
He walked around
Looked around
Moved around
But nobody knew Nobody
And so to everyone he meet
He was just a nobody
Nobody didn't mind
He didn't even think about it
Because he didn't know anybody
So to him he was somebody
Just being himself
Like all the other somebodies
When somebody laughed
and said that he was a nobody
Nobody just smiled back
Cause that somebody was nobody
And nobody ever bothered
That sweet quiet guy
Nobody

Ever Closer and Further Away
Come softly
Into my bed
Hold me tenderly
Tell me words of love
But when I hold you close
Please mean every single word
Don't lie or cheat to sleep with me
For that would be a shame
And as my arms wrap ever closer
Yours should wrap just as snug
If we aren't like two pieces become one
Then we should be apart forever more
Do you understand my message here?
Be mine or get away
Love me totally or be ashamed
As my arms wrap ever closer
