Nightmares

If you find yourself lying alone in your bed
Wondering if it was all in your head
Look up, look down
I'm all around you
Not just a dream
I'm your nightmare

I'm your desire
Your fantasy
Your wish come true
I'm all you ever wanted and more
But don't you remember
A day long ago
When someone told you
Be careful what you wish for
You should have listened

A touch in the darkness
A whisper of sound
I slip into your brain
I turn you around
I lift you so high
You don't want to come down
I warned you before
I'm your nightmare unbound

If you find yourself lying alone in your bed
Wondering if it was all in your head
Look up, look down
I'm all around you
Not just a dream
I'm your nightmare

I play with your memories
Steal your soul
Pray for salvation
I'm coming to call
Look for your gods
They're never around
I'm the only one here
The only one to be found

Did you know I'm the devil
I created your fears
I live for your failures
I cause all your tears
Try to escape and I'll know where you go
I've had all the time in the world
Now you're all alone

If you find yourself lying alone in your bed
Wishing it was all in your head
Look in, look out
I'm all around
I'm not just your dream
I'm your nightmare
Not just a bad dream
Your worst nightmare

We Could've Had More

You gave me a thousand promises
You gave me a thousand lies
You told me all the things I wanted to hear
Now you're telling me goodbye

I wish things could've been different
That you could've been a man
All the things we could've had
And now we never can

You took all that I had to give
And now you take everything else
Leave me with nothing but memories
Of times I should've been by myself

If wishes could've had substance
I'dve had the whole world
But like a child living a dream
I fell in love with a fool

For all that's gone wrong
All the anger and pain
For this I have you to thank
The dream child finally awake

Look at the world through rose coloured glasses
That's what I used to do
But you crushed them as you walked away
No more am I blinded to the truth

You gave me a thousand reasons
You gave me a thousand excuses
Why nothing was as it should've been
Now I know it was because of you

Hello, how are you
Didn't I used to know you
Sorry can't stay
I have a life to get back to you

11 September

The world holds it's breath
On a day of blue skies
The clouds made by man
Tear at a billion eyes
Hearts breaking all over
A world mourns the loss
Of illusions of invincibility
A war brought to a land
So proud of it's strength
It's size always before
Enough to protect a people
A dream, a life of ease
Now the blue skies broken
Thunder without storms
Storms without rain
Peace in our own time
Another truth lost

Table Manners

Sitting at the table
Alone at dinner time
A little boy
Who used to dream
Who used to hear nursery rhymes
Watches out the window
As the world passes by
All alone at dinner time
He's trying not to cry

Sitting at the table
Playing with his food
A little boy
Wonders why he's left alone
To brood
Sitting at the table
Doing his own time
He figures since he's already here
Why the hell not do the crime
