"The Beauty in the Black Sheep"
I often ponder
How you dream and wander
with so many comforts
some people never discover
We fly under the radar
We stare into the sun
While the voices of generations
Shouting out a rebel song
Romance is nothing
if you can't give everyone
a way to the stars
Freedom is calling
Hope you listen
to the beauty in the black sheep.
Memories
Scars to prove
Alienation
in our youth
we were taught to be part of the crowd
forced to look down at the ground
We are the huddled masses
you only read about
Romance is nothing
if you can't give everyone
a way to the stars
Freedom is calling
Hope you listen
to the beauty in the black sheep.
"Behind the Screen"
Pick your head up from your phone
Those are places you’ll never go
While the lines you scroll are beautiful
Your truth is worth its weight in gold
So much that you should know
Why waste away today
There are colors outside
Take this masquerade
Shine the light
The person right in front of me
A different one entirely
When you’re living life
Behind the screen
With eyes to meet
Words to speak
Hands to hold
Mouths to feed
When reality becomes tv
What we need is love from those who lead
Why waste away today
There are colors outside
Take this masquerade
Shine the light
The person right in front of me
A different one entirely
When you’re living life Behind the screen
"Promises"
You look so familiar I swear I’ve seen your face before
The war began and broke our world in two
God how I missed you I know I couldn’t live without
The times we spent learning to love without regret
Can’t always be your fault We repair
A storm crashes the home we built This time for real
I’ll never leave you Lying in the dark
With shades drawn down I’ll be holding on
To the light in your heart
Can’t hide from the wounds Love can heal
There’s no lie you just can’t feel
Don’t fade away Never fade away
I won’t run from pain left inside
I won’t cry when days don’t turn out right
I won’t run my hearts lost the fight
I won’t run I won’t run
Yeah, we’re all the same Though it’s hard to say
I still love you
We’re all the same beneath the grave Promises are hard to make
Yeah, we’re all the same Thought it’s hard to say
I still love you.
"Conversations"
Take it how you want it
Does it matter anyway
Seasons change people change
Nothing you can say
See I was an open book
I didn’t bother to read
Slowing down the enemy
I had to be free
Turns out love is what we needed
I wouldn’t have it any other way
So I planted seeds of a flower
And came back another day
I am not this body
Don’t think I ever was
Gonna find out why I’m afraid
Of what my mind does
See if everything your mother
Said was true
A journey takes you away
Be a spirit searching
Taking in the view
Turns out love is what we needed
I wouldn’t have it any other way
So I planted seeds of a flower
And came back another day
You came from a dream
Take my breath away
Silence with a whisper
Conversations we name
You came from a dream
Take my breath away
Silence with a whisper
Sounds like desire.
