If
If I am Here, then it’s clear
Something is missing inside
Hurt that is learning to hide
In the sound underground
The Gallery hidden from view
Is waiting to wonder anew
Still and silent
Fire is feeding my hell
Faith is healing my shell

Hypogeum
Down here the maze is without end
Stone breaks a promise to pretend
Left here to face what they may bring
Kept here in service to the king
All the bodies they buried
Stir where they lay
Showing each other the way
Live for today
And fight for tomorrow
Down here the night does not prevail
No soul is left to live the tale
Darkened now the lights that never shone
Struck down in anger they never made it home
All the torches they carried
Burn anyway
Showing each other the way
Live for today
And fight for tomorrow
—————————————————+
If I see through my fear
The face of my savior is clear
Painted to match what I feel
Angry and violent
The phantoms are rising unseen
Fate will not intervene
Down here the heart denies it’s pain
Seeing clearly the rush to be insane
Held here suspended in the dark
Hope waits for someone to reignite the spark
All the torches they carried
Burn anyway
Showing each other the way
Live for today
And fight for tomorrow

All Our Yesterdays

All Our Yesterdays
The hate that we cling to for safety
Is dragging us down to the drain
No one is listening lately
Aimlessly shouting in vain
Descended from there into madness
Sowing the seeds of demise
Pretended the end isn’t chaos
Becoming the ones we despise
Endlessly filling the green in our eyes
Praying for time - See how it flies
Speeding to some destination
Blind to a treacherous bend
Anger consuming perfection
Never a thought to the end
Sparks of life that want to flow through us
Are waiting to be welcomed in
The last light that gathered around us
Seeking somewhere to begin
Endlessly feeding the greed in our lives
Playing the line - Kiss it goodbye
We have betrayed
All our yesterdays
And discovered a grave new world
We could have stayed
All was washed away
By forgetting the songs we heard
Of those days
—————————————————————+
Divisions that hide our horizons
Can only be seen from on high
The world falls apart as it rises
No gravity there to defy
Ascended from hell into hopeless
We carried the dust of our lives
Suspended the rest of our progress
And sold off the true compromise
Anxiously searching for truth in the skies
Playing for time - Living the lies
We have betrayed
All our yesterdays
And discovered a grave new world
We could have stayed
All was washed away
By forgetting the songs we heard
Of those days

Parallax Error
Looking over shoulders
The past becomes our judge
The way ahead is clouded
Behind us not so much
Distance measured by grief
Feelings do not align
We assign the divine to the absent
We are faced with the evidence
Of things unseen
Life is not a mistake

Schizophonia
Experience - Perception
Seventh sense - Deception
Future tense - Cannot become
Recording and deleting at once
The crest of the waveform
That crashes and flows
Learning to be there
Searching for somewhere
Modulate - Not quite blending
Hesitate - Not worth mending
Inner voice - Can’t duplicate
Straining to extract too late
The last of the white noise
That rises and slows
Wanting to live there
Echo to nowhere
If it sings to you, it’s music
And nothing else is there to hear
If it speaks to you, it’s magic
And nothing needs to disappear
Children of Harmony
Filter and grow
Reaching for some way
Nearing the last day
————————————————+
Random thoughts to organize
Holding up the final sound
Never seem to realize
The answer is the fate we’ve found
Breathing the real air
And knowing it sees
My face in the trees
Time to release
If it sings to you, it’s music
And nothing else is there to hear
If it speaks to you, it’s magic
And nothing needs to disappear
Children of Harmony
Filter and grow
Reaching for some way
Nearing the last day

Broken
If I could hide myself
Behind the face I wear
Praying for no one to find me here
Don’t make me wash out the stain
If I could find myself
With no allegiance to swear
Waiting for Eden to reappear
Don’t make me hurt you again
====+
Something that was made to be endless
Nothing that was meant to be hopeless
Became that way
If I could see myself
As almost anyone else
The weight of the war will not disappear
No one can carry my chain
====+
Somewhere at the end I feel helpless
Nowhere to pretend this is madness
To live this way
Breaking the word never known
That someone tried to silence
It’s already spoken
Wounded where scars never show
Evil came to bend me
I’m already broken
And out in the open
———————————————————+
If I could be like them
The ones we don’t understand
Knowing that no one will help us here
The way to continue is plain
If I could help myself
Would I give me a hand?
Waiting for reason to disappear
Don’t make me love you again
====+
Breaking the word never known
That someone tried to silence
It’s already spoken
Wounded where scars never show
Evil came to bend me
I’m already broken
And out in the open

The Lazarus Hex
They believed him a gentle man
With a smile and a guiding hand
Too blind to know that they were blind
Living for the shadows in his mind
Feeding the monster all of the time
Holding the demons down
In the black light dimension he found
Too proud to care about the price
Nothing here could satisfy his vice
Burning alive under the ice
No embers alive
No cowards survive here
Imprisoned against their will
The phantoms that fell
Invited to dwell here
Resisting their tormentor still
The righteous move in for the kill
She believed him a gentle man
And she smiled as she took his hand
Too young to know he was insane
The monster didn’t even know her name
Pleading for time struck down the same
She whispered the words
Destroying the doorway
Aware of the price to her soul
The spirits that heard
Would judge him their own way
And take back the lives that he stole
The inferno would spit him back whole
------------------------------------------------+
He isn’t reborn
He’s not resurrected
He never had left this place
The ones that he knew
Had never suspected
The beast that was wearing his face
His secret is known
He’s stranded forever
And no one remembers his name
The spell that she cast
Would cost her forever
But he would be paying the same
A pawn in the damnation game

The Sum Of What’s Missing
I keep in my heart
Some of what’s missing inside me
Practice the art
Silently solving the pain
She added the dawn
And subtracted the dark
Dividing me from
That which I did not need
And washing the wounds
While I bleed
I’m still living behind
No comfort to find
What’s missed inside
Arrived at the sum
That’s missed inside
I carry the one
Who’s missed inside
In solitude
Something I said to myself
Wondering why
Hard as I try
No equation can find the remainder
Inside
She comforts me
Even though eyes cannot see her
Something I save
To convince me I’m brave
No ascension can help me to save her
I’ll carry the one
I stared at the shade
Questioning the answers
The light she made
Gives me nowhere to hide
Equations divide
What’s missed inside
Cross the grandest divide
I’ll carry the one
Who’s missed inside
I carry the one
Who’s missed inside
Arrived at the sum
That’s missed inside
I carry the one
Who’s missed inside

Pentimento
Paint by numbers
Something I’ve come to forget
Flowing under
Nothing I’ve come to regret
Layered colors
Hiding the answers I’ve found
Ghostly others
Lying in wait for the sound
And the loudest of colors surround
Oh, Pentimento
Concealing the wonder inside you
So sentimental
My image is fading away
With nothing remaining to say
Saturated
Bathed in a luminous stream
Elevated
I painted a previous dream
And I’m left with myself in between
Oh, Pentimento
It seemed I had wandered beyond you
Torn at the center
You hid all my treasures away
Oh, Pentimento
The canvas is singing my story
Slowing the tempo
Disguising their meaning this way
And framing their voices at play
Mournful the sound to the wandering wounded
Wishing for chains and so made by the hundred
Hope lies along every pathway gone wrong
Life sings along though no one knows the song
Pictures sustain unforgettable fire
Held in suspension for eyes that desire
All that they show
———————————————————+
Pain by numbers
Learning to work with it now
Stained by wonders
But hiding them safely somehow
And the star is seen taking a bow
Oh, Pentimento
It seemed I had wandered beyond you
Torn at the center
You hid all my treasures away
Oh, Pentimento
The canvas is singing my story
Slowing the tempo
Disguising their meaning this way
With words I don’t know how to say
c2023 Firewall Music Ltd. (ASCAP)
The word pentimento is derived from the Italian 'pentirsi', which means to repent or change your mind.
Pentimento is a change made by the artist during the process of painting.
These changes are usually hidden beneath a subsequent paint layer.

Then
The images gathering here
Have waited for me to appear
Their stories have needed my songs
And now they can all sing along
———————————————+
Nothing is wrong
Where you belong
No more to say
Give it away
Now that it’s clear
Doorways appear
Waiting in silence
The ending is drawing you near
Fate will not interfere
Leave the pictures behind you here
