I'm in love with the sunshine
If you see what I mean
See it bouncing around
your Rube Goldberg eye
I'm in an enlightened state
From lightening the load
By finding that the truth: that the load is actually the prize
I wanna shed some light hey hey
There can be darkness in the day
And I cant just keep ignoring it, my dear
Cause when the dust all clears
And It's just me standing here
I'll have to see if what I was had been alright
So, Let's head for the hills
stop paying all the bills
And maybe haunt some ghosts just for a while
We can stare them down
turn their scares around
And arm in arm we'll drag em down the line
I'm in love with the moonlight
The way it seems to graze
As it lands softly on the doorstep of your eyes
I'm in a midnight state
Practice for the sleep to come
And I see that death is also its own prize
I'm in love with the ending
Cause it means there was a start
And a road along the way I tried to find
And when the dust all clears
And It's just me standing here
I'll have to see if what I was had been alright
So, Let's head for the hills
stop paying all the bills
And maybe hunt some shadows for a while
We can stare them down
turn their scares around
And arm in arm we'll drag em down the line

"The world is heavy and opaque without dreams." So says Anaïas Nïn.
A heavy world is hard to remember cause the dream bursts in again,
The second you walk in.
Our dream does so much more than make the world a lighter and more transparent place.
It puts the world in its place, a tiny thing that's lighter than a feather on a scale to such as us.
Nothing, and I mean nothing, could ever stop this dream from being wild and free.
No one, and I mean no one, could ever know the majesty of you and me.
You silence me with all the little things
And every hallowed night and every spring that you bring.
As every star in the sky sang their eternal goodbye
The golden moon,
Shined down on you.
And shined down on me.
And then we were free.

The Edge of Tonight

The seer has spoken
Your future is certain
If you want to believe
But if you won't hear him
Your path isn't chosen
The room bobs and weaves
But it's alright
Cause I bow down to the phantoms in my mind
And it's alright
Cause they're as good as anything tonight
The night wind is blowing
It knows without knowing
The secrets you keep
It tells them to no one
But hints at the notion
They'll escape in your sleep
But it's alright
Cause Im spilling all my secrets all the time
And it's alright
Cause they're as good as anything tonight
It's alright, sometimes we give in and sometimes we fight
Just keep holding on tight and never let go of the edge of tonight.
It's alright.
