When you see no way out
And it's all too hard to take
You scream and you shout
Wondering when you'll wake
When it seems so dark
Like a never ending night
Hurts so bad...your broken heart
Way too tired to keep up the fight
I'll wait here by you
For day to arrive
For the sun to shine through
And you once more feel alive
Because that day will come
Even if you can't see it now
Life will once again be fun
Even if you can't yet see how
Creatively on my mind

The Show
A singular moment
Alone on the stage
A dejected voice
With hints of rage
That boils underneath
And silently grows
But with a smile
Continues the shows
It's all pretend
A never-ending road
Continue to walk
Carrying the load
Left with no choice
Even though you dream
And follow with footsteps
Past the flowing stream
Of what could've been
And should've been
And never again
Ever will be
Alone on the stage
A dejected voice
With hints of rage
That boils underneath
And silently grows
But with a smile
Continues the shows
It's all pretend
A never-ending road
Continue to walk
Carrying the load
Left with no choice
Even though you dream
And follow with footsteps
Past the flowing stream
Of what could've been
And should've been
And never again
Ever will be

. . .
A fanatical obsession
Just a moment in time
A quiet confession
At the end of the line
Silent whispers
That constantly call
Draw you in slowly
Watching you fall
Simply the one
Who waits halfway
Left all alone
With nothing to say
At the end of the day
It matters no more
The battle is done
Not worth fighting for
Just a moment in time
A quiet confession
At the end of the line
Silent whispers
That constantly call
Draw you in slowly
Watching you fall
Simply the one
Who waits halfway
Left all alone
With nothing to say
At the end of the day
It matters no more
The battle is done
Not worth fighting for

Fighting the fight
Pretend to be strong
To smile
And laugh
And sing a happy song
But deep inside
I'm dying
Each time I see you cry
Each time you fight the fight
From late at night
Until the morning light
Your spirit trapped
In this moment
Dreaming
And longing
What lies beyond the gate
How do you pick up
The pieces around your feet?
Where do you begin
To find yourself again?
When it all seems lost
A never ending race
This moment that is now
To smile
And laugh
And sing a happy song
But deep inside
I'm dying
Each time I see you cry
Each time you fight the fight
From late at night
Until the morning light
Your spirit trapped
In this moment
Dreaming
And longing
What lies beyond the gate
How do you pick up
The pieces around your feet?
Where do you begin
To find yourself again?
When it all seems lost
A never ending race
This moment that is now
This moment
Knocking on the door
With gentle steps
Across the floor
A risk perhaps
What were the odds?
But it was there
A flickering light
Beneath the eyes
Not quite sure
Of the what and the why
But no regrets
No looking back
It's constant
At least for now
Hope
That it might last
Afraid it might not
This moment
That rests in my heart
With gentle steps
Across the floor
A risk perhaps
What were the odds?
But it was there
A flickering light
Beneath the eyes
Not quite sure
Of the what and the why
But no regrets
No looking back
It's constant
At least for now
Hope
That it might last
Afraid it might not
This moment
That rests in my heart
Spread your wings

With your eyes so bright
And your beautiful smile
With your excitement for life
No time to rest for a while
You're growing up way too fast

Ready to take on the world
I feel so blessed
That you are here
Am so proud of you
There is nothing you have to fear
Live your dreams
Do amazing things
This moment is yours
So start spreading your wings
With your eyes so bright
And your beautiful smile
With your excitement for life
No time to rest for a while
You're growing up way too fast
No longer a little girl
A big 5 year old
Ready to take on the world
I feel so blessed
That you are here
Am so proud of you
There is nothing you have to fear
Live your dreams
Do amazing things
This moment is yours
So start spreading your wings

Never ending searching
Has never figured out
Don't know why it had to be
Sometimes it drives her mad
But mostly she's come to see
That she's not meant to know
Even when she burns deep inside
With the ever longing need
For answers that always seem to hide
A little girl of long ago
Thought once that maybe
If she could join you
She would finally see
And find the peace
A desperate need
To find the quiet from the never ending noise
Of the words stuck in her head
That's forever there
Present in her mind
Chasing and pushing and shoving
Screaming of an emptiness inside
And looking back
She's no different to then
Just maybe more composed
Mostly forgotten, but sometimes to remember again
Don't know why it had to be
Sometimes it drives her mad
But mostly she's come to see
That she's not meant to know
Even when she burns deep inside
With the ever longing need
For answers that always seem to hide
A little girl of long ago
Thought once that maybe
If she could join you
She would finally see
And find the peace
A desperate need
To find the quiet from the never ending noise
Of the words stuck in her head
That's forever there
Present in her mind
Chasing and pushing and shoving
Screaming of an emptiness inside
And looking back
She's no different to then
Just maybe more composed
Mostly forgotten, but sometimes to remember again
