Say say to me what I wanna hear
Just say to me simply the truth my dear
Clear the smog, the dirt and smoke
cut through the hazy gaze before you choke
brought on by sullied visions
misperceived expectations
realized realizations
miscommunicated communications
I’m on fire
It aint easy
to follow your heart
to follow your dreams
no it aint easy as it seems
the best said words are the ones left unspoken
I am a man of many visions, oh yeah
and in my silence I keep on seeing
images within reveal the way
it’s a movement of emotion
I don’t mean to start a commotion
can you feel it ?
I’m on fire
It aint easy
to follow your heart
to follow your dreams
no it aint easy as it seems
in my wildest of sleeps
I could not have imagined a dream
like this
in all
my life
I’m on fire
It aint easy
to follow your heart
I’m on fire
it aint easy
it aint easy
it aint easy
it aint easy
but what am I?
what am I supposed to do?
what am I supposed to do?
it aint easy
it aint easy
it aint easy
but I love it
oh, but I love it

Wishing Well

Penny for your thoughts
Dime for a feeling
my kingdom
for a bit of bliss
my arms, my teeth
anything to keep me
from what’s beneath
hallelujah,
nobody save me
hallelujah,
nobody see me
I am the eyes of god
turned inward and upside down
not sure which way is out
but I know I’m on my way
and when I get there
I’ll be right where I am
Where I always was
Rod in hand, next to the dog
on the farm by the fishing pond
across from the wishing well
Wishing well, Wishing Well
I wish I could wish you well
Wishing well, wishing well,
I wish I could wish you well
Wishing Well, Wishing well
But you’re much too deep
If ever I could take away your pain
I would but, if I did, what would I leave you with?
Your earth would turn to clay
without the rain
hallelujah,
nobody save me
hallelujah,
nobody see me
I am the eyes of god
turned inward and upside down
not sure which way is out
but I know I’m on my way
and when I get there
I’ll be right where I am
Where I always was
Rod in hand, next to the dog
across from the wishing well
Wishing well, Wishing Well
I wish I could wish you well
Wishing well, wishing well,
I wish I could wish you well
Wishing Well, Wishing well
I wish I could wish you well
Wishing well, wishing well
but you’re much too deep,
but you’re much too deep
but you’re much too deep

Shit and Stars

I’ve been trying to be on my own
I’ve been fighting all my life
just to walk alone
And now that I’m on my own
I’m so terrified just to look at myself
to look at myself in the mirror
and see all that shit that I’ve been avoiding
how can I go on?
Just one step
one foot in front of the other
I keep on telling myself
that this is exactly what I wanted
I’m so scared
I’m so afraid
of falling
flat on my face
How, how, does one do it?
How?
All I know is that I’ll keep on going
writing song after song
tellin’ my own truth
Because I know for sure
that the sun will come up
it does every morning
even if I am mourning
and I know for sure that the sun will go down
in the evening time
yeah I know the stars, the stars
they’ll keep on shinin’
and that’s why I know
that I’m not alone
no, I’m really not alone
Ive got these little twinkly things
that will always be there
no there not going anywhere
no there not going anywhere
and I know that one day
I’ll be one of those stars
