Across the river, the asphalt river
Memories then are hazy
If I could only recall your face
Signs of life so near me
Can you hear me whoever you are
Nervous little boy
I am but a child
What a new experience
On the sidewalk shore
Things you read in storybooks
Companionship she showed me
When I noticed she had gone
Left this town for the city
Or maybe nowhere at all, who knows
Take me with you
Carry me in your waves
Please

Two thousand nine, I’m reaching in
Whatever happened to this skin
And all the hearts I’ve broken clean
I wonder if I still haunt their dreams
Oh, I can’t go back now
Oh, there’s nothing left now
Memories in colored jars
I smashed them all to free the star
Once more the glass turns back to sand
And falls through the cracks in my hand

Sleep…never comes quite naturally to me
If you could see…the things I’ve dreamed, you’d never lay your head down again
And still you came and tread water on this delicate sea
Put aside the ghosts and horrors that remain
I’ll ward off all your demons ‘cause you’d do the same for me
Get inside your head and play this song in perfect key
That only you can hear
So rest well tonight, dear, I hope that the fact remains
That someone sleeps well knowing you
Because you deserve nothing less than a prince and a gentleman’s arms
And a head rid of horrors haunting you
So next time I shut my eyes I have one to look forward to

You’re all on your own, go on now
It’s yours for the taking
You’ve made it this far
Now what comes next?
Hey now
Don’t look at me like that
You made the choice to go
I’m only a man, a weakling just like you
You’ve got freedom now, revolution you said
But all that you have is the roof o’er your head
The slate is clean but you’ve lost your chalk
The bitter upward stare lingers in your eyes
Drawing lines between the stars in the sky
Maybe the picture will be revealed
Personal space
Then you find yourself alone
Curled up hoping that someone that you know finds you there

Leather to the rails
No one at my side
A second chance to catch the next ride
Abandoned engine wandering
Moves e'er so slow
Pushing forward on where’er the tracks go
In mortal silence I traverse this barren way
A drifter empty with a heart unstill to stay
Moving on with the whole world far away
Caught in the fires of change
Sky is dry and still
Scorched earth circling round
There ain’t no signs of life to be found
Sun’s rays blinding bright
Hard to see clearly now
Still I drive to find a home somehow
Looking back behind me
My shadow streches wide
But there ain’t no shadow ahead to confide

She looks to no one
Can you blame her at all?
When nobody looks to her
A perfectly decent girl
Growing up, letting go
With nothing to hide, or so it seems
A runaway, in dismay
Call her why don’t you come out and play
Another day, in decay
Every night down on her knees she prays for...
The drapery hangs
Behind those eyes, behind that smile
Where her altar lies
She cannot see the ships on the horizon
But we all can
A runaway, in dismay
Call her why don’t you come out and play
Another day, in decay
Every night down on her knees she prays
She shouts out at the sky and waits for an answer
Wishing company that never betrays her
Lying by her tears caught by her pillow
As many moons pass by, how can she know?
Where now are the stocks that bound you?
Where will you find shelter from the hailstorm upon you?
Where now are the deceivers who tore you apart?
When will your frozen tears melt from your icy blue heart?
When will I have to turn a blind eye again?
Where does the rising toll to the gateway of your soul end?
Who will throw the flowers upon your grave?
Who in their darkest hour will wait to be saved?
