I can't help but glow
for two minutes every morning
when we'd talk about the government
and where you were born
and share a common disgust we have for this state
and joke of how together we could both leave this place
but you know I wish it were to be true
sarcasm, aside
you can't help light
the darkest of dives
I hope your parents pride
that they created your life
this windhose in my pocket, like the one on your neck
it's telling me my luck hasn't run out just yet
and I know I could show you a good time
optimism aside
and now you're gone
I never got to show you the charm that we share
but I still have one prayer
if I'm fortunate, for the day to come
we would laugh and dance underneath the sun
I would have the world know one thing
the light will shine through your smile
you'd never take the train home again, not for one more mile
you're waiting for me to exhale
you're waiting for me to exhale
for now, i close my eyes, try to remember the lines
until you let me into your life......

we, the people, refuse to run,
or hang from puppet strings
we, the people, refuse to hide
or believe another goddamn thing
blinding effort makes our part
blessings manifest our faith
darkest days may lie ahead
but behold we forge a saving grace
call me dumb
call me naïve
this burning in my heart just won't leave
broken, bannered hearts still forever bleed
a tyrant's reign
a father's curse
an eagle's shadow will cover the earth
at midnight, the sky is ours to reach

you walk the hills
sun trails your feet
dawn to dusk
you follow and repeat
so untainted and innocent
first to arrive
and last to leave
you're the morning's glory
and night's retrieve
you have everything I need
you go home to heaven
you go on to heaven
you go home to heaven
the mountains
the ocean
Israel
Afghanistan
I'll never know
I'll never know
where to go, now that you are gone
I look up to heaven
I cry up to heaven
I yell up to heaven
I'm dragging you down
because I am lonely
I'm holding you down
because I am homeless
I'm keeping you down
because I am desperate
I'm holding you down
because I am hopeless
and I need you around
we are home in heaven
together here in heaven
we are home in heaven

seperation
hollow void
I am not found
my spirit is on the wall
my helmet fell to the ground
this sullen world
will try and asphyxiate your light
but never concede your will
and never stop the fight
I may be gone, of circumstance
and you may bereave
But a testament of encouragment
I shall leave
this sullen world
will try and asphyxiate your light
but never concede your will
and never stop the fight
we will always glow
no matter where you go

insanity, defined
we visit the same places
and we expect to find new faces
those guided testaments we know
and we always relied on
but our hopes and dreams leave faster than they come
it's been worn, been torn
been trampled and stamped on
regrettably, the heart needs a heart
abandoned, stranded
lathered, and shattered
unfortunately, the heart needs a heart
I have been here before
and I know it won't get warm
so in the cold, my heart needs a heart
we see the sun rise
but our hopes fade when the light dies
so in the dark, my heart needs a heart

so now I believe
in the Mayan word
as business men try
to find work in the heat
their shirts are torn
their shoes are handed down
they have been pushed to their knees in the street
bow down to none, we have no lord
we take what we need, but still ask for more
the day shall come, we collect our reward
our savior will come
hopeless, aimless
we can't afford to dream
the drugs calm the mind
but don't fill the gut
desperate, we stand
in the pouring rain
with no where to go
they close the doors shut
bow down to none, we have no lord
the holes in your shirt
show you're tired and worn
the day shall come, he collects his reward
our savior has come, still no reward
we pray for better days
from ashes we rise

your history shows that modesty
can be truly beautiful
the beauty that I see in your eyes
is truly plentiful
untainted, and innocent
not influenced by American Modern Greed
I hear you eastern girls got
what us western boys like me need
I hear that west coast girls like you got
what east coast boys like me need
you are the sun
the warmest sun
eyes so bright
boys turn home, they run
I am climbing the top of Everest to look you in the eyes
six years and a half a world away
from the village you spent those days
there is not a doubt, in my mind, why you are here, tonight
you close your eyes
you take my hand
as we flow down freedom's stream
stop living in the wake of
the corroded American Dream
they call me dumb
they call me naïve
but this burning in my heart just won't leave
together we can live our own American Dream
you are the sun
the warmest sun
eyes so bright boys turn home
they run
I am climbing the top of Mount Hollywood to look you in the eyes
six hours and a nation away
from the "small town" you were raised
there is not a doubt in my mind, why you are here, right now
East Coast rain is cold
and I have never felt your warmth
that doesn't stop me
or my finger-tips, right now
I have never have had a good thing
I have always had "the blues"
But I know I can't wait to see you without shoes
