Halfway To Happiness

I got your letter. I still remember the verse, on the page, that mentioned my name.
So many years ago. Under inches of snow.
The moon sneaking in, knew all of our sins.
We were halfway to happiness.
On this pathway that never ends.
And there is no way I could ever last.
And now I'm halfway throughout, through in.
I was a stranger. You were in danger.
Breaking my plans, together we ran.
Away from everywhere. Every last breath of air sung to my ear, there was nothing to hear.
And when you lie, your eyes always break their hold on mine.
And that's how I know.
When you lie, your hands always shake.
You can't even deny it now, this time it's over.
I got your letter. I still remember the time and the place, the look on your face.
You told me everything about the secret ring.
But without a shield, we both were revealed.
Now we're halfway to happiness.
On this pathway that never ends.
And there is no way I could ever last.
And now I'm halfway throughout, through in.
I'm halfway throughout, through in.

Wintertime

low light. red sky. the bottoms of my shoes are caked with ice.
Dead sea scrolling across the barren landscape of my dreams.
I've seen the rain fall on the rooftops. I've felt the sun beat on my skin.
I left the comfort of my fantasy behind, under cover of the snow-clouds in the sky.
And I've felt the icy grip of winter wrapped around my neck and then this season left me
for dead.
I've lost my way. The landmarks have faded into grey
and white. snow white. I've tucked myself under a sheet of ice.
I have seen a couple feature. And I have walked on many lines.
I've seen so many things I could not recognize.
And with a million words I can't even describe.
Lead me a thousand leagues away. It's too late.
My spirit has been gone forever. And my bones had just held up my skin.
I spent just minutes learning how the world began.
I spent a lifetime learning how it all would end.

Remember Me

I wonder if you still remember me.
I used to know you back in '93.
So much has happened since I left this town.
I'm hardly sure I know my way around.
You'll always seem familiar.
Front row in my high school picture.
I wonder if you still remember me.
I would say "this town is way too creepy anyway."
Just like my best friend's voice that's starting to fade,
Their faces turn grey,
I can't even remember your name.
I found your number on my kitchen wall.
The operator won't connect my call.
We learned so much from life when we were friends.
We'll never have that kind of bond again.
My friends have all moved away.
I can't find them on myspace.
I don't care if you still remember me.
