Merry Go Round

We do things we change
We change our minds.
We change things we do
We compromise.

Take a step down
Pass yourself around

We do things we change
We change our minds.
We change things we do
We compromise.

Take a step down
Pass yourself around

Fall Together

Do we fall together?
She asks as if she doesn't know
Or do you watch me fall
And slowly back away?

Will we ever agree?
She asks as if she wants to know
Or will you always fight
Against my fantasy?

Have we ever walked together?
She knows there was a time
When heart and soul and mind
Behaved as one.

So am I crazy now?
She speaks only to herself
Wishing someone could
Answer back.

You are the common denominator.

You slaughter your potential.

Dust

Crushing the eggshells.
Watching them crumble through my fingers.

I peer into your steely blue eyes.
And catch glimpses of fire.

Flames of your spirit.
Dying.

Fear engulfed by resolve.
Resolve overtaken by fear.
Strength suppressed by frailty.
Frailties shattered by strength.

Grinding the eggshells to powder.
Watching it blow in the wind.

And I blow to help it along.
And wonder why I miss it so.

Flames of my spirit.
Dying.
