Ancient gardener

Glassy eyes, warm breath

Deep insight

Chirping robins

Anchored ships, warm breath

Swinging branches

(Drums BEGIN)

Bird tracks

In the fresh snow

Sailing on maple leaves

A delicate breeze

Teases a still pond

Blushing with delicate ripples

You don’t drown in the river you’ve fallen into

But, if you stay still, you’ll never rise again

(Guitar SOLO)

Profound thoughts

Sunrays during winter

Least noise made

Changing forever

It takes as it gives

Water turns to sky

In the middle of the river

With mist on the paddle

I hear the silence

Peace I’ve felt before

Only with you

(SCALE CHANGE)

As you know what I’ve been meaning to say

You’re feeling the way I’m feeling

(Drums BREAK)

What I am to you

Is only known to you

Imprisoned inside of me

Is a secret that reveals

How much you mean to me

I still believe...

I will always...

Believe that I know

That I can

(Drums BEGIN)

(Strings BEGIN)

(Guitar SOLO EXTRO)

Look at me in Disdain

(Guitar INTRO)

(Drums begin)

Living the life that makes me alone

Stressing and messing with words

These things don’t affect the stone

I’m nearing eruption, you better be gone

All that I believed in has turned back to deceive me

Nothing makes sense at all

These morals have become useless chorales

It leaves me headless and aimless now

From outside the glasses

They insert the pain

They tap and encourage

And look at me in disdain

(Guitar SOLO)

Seasons change and so do I

The image projected is going to expire

I scan and borrow my next image

Devious, I turn into in bestial rage

Spending time, a lot of it with myself

Trying to explain, the me to myself

How did this happen? I feel invincible

I’ve fallen and taken the shape of the crucible

(Instrumental Section – 1 minute)

No need to explain to anyone around

These plastic people come and surround

Limitless methods I looked and have found

I need to take the impossible path to the ground

(Drum Bridge)

From outside the glasses

They insert the pain

They tap and encourage

And look at me in disdain

(Instrumental FADE OUT)

A choice

(Bass INTRO)

(Piano begins)

(Bass solo)

(Bass + Piano Duel)

(Strings begin)

(Lap steel guitar begins)

(Instrumentals – 2 minutes)

I’m moving forward

I’m moving myself forward

Halfway through

I think

Of the things

Halfway backwards

A dream

We cared

(Instrumental break – 4 seconds)

We shared

We climbed

But, crashed

Someone’s win

Another one’s loss

Someone’s smile

Another one’s tears

Rising towards that something

In search of something

That little something

That became nothing

No more

(Instrumental break – 4 seconds)

Morals leak

The silver lining I see

Becomes bleak

Peace rises up and falls

I collect the pieces

To find it again

But, the pieces of peace pierce me

Nothingness

Hurts me more

So many questions

No more answers

The best gift He gave is

Tomorrow

(All instruments stop except piano)

(Piano solo)

(Drum roll)

(Guitar solo)

(Bass + Strings dual)

(Instrumentals 1 minute)

(All instruments stop except piano)

What more can I say?

Love one and all

This is my choice
