Bloodshot

The last night before the rest of our lives
You dance before me
For a moment
For an eternity
You come closer
I feel your skin
The sweet sensation
That will never be beyond this
Our eyes meet
You see the depth in my gaze
I see the sympathy in your eyes
You’ll return to another’s arms
Another round
Another set
Another dance, my love
Let go of all that you’ve left behind
And stay in the now
In the touch of skin
In the nearness
My breath on your body
Your heat on mine
In the endless seconds
In this precious moment
Let me be lost in music
In the motion
In your spirit
In all of you
Let me be lost in this deception
Let me pretend
Let me live forever in your memory
Live in mine
In my fantasy
In this brief act of borrowed reality
Let me live with you
In these seconds that will never end
Forget reality
Forget your home
Don't come back
Stay with me
Stay in these fleeting minutes
In the dying seconds
The hurtful, blatant longing
That I will willingly suffer
Goodbye my salvation
Goodbye my dream
Goodbye my horrid addiction

6 Bottles

Another vision
Another dream
Another round for the dreamer
Another round for the night

Only in this haze do you see me
Though in my sober hours I seek you
Only in this dizzy drowse do we meet
Though in my days I see you

I am fortune’s fool again
For chasing after the night
Running away from the dawn
Escaping the bitterness of reality

More and more
I believe in this prophesy
More and more
I am drunk in this dream

Stay awake
Don’t let this dream end
Another round for the dreamer, the foolish
Holding on to this drunken haze

I sit behind you
Beyond anything I can ever reach
An arms touch and a lifetime away
Impotent desire, helpless longing

When you wake up
My arms will be bare
You will feel warmth
I, alone in disbelief

You’ll be coming home soon
And I’ll be left to retrace these nights
When we cross paths again
Let it be in warmth and light and truth

See me in reality
Give chance to this vision
Revel in our truth
Dream with me with open eyes

Dreams

There is something beyond the horizon
Trust in his time
And in the breaking of the dawn
A vision awaits
Realized only in dreams
Sweet reality awaits the dreamer
Believe in his judgement
Dream and hope
Believe and behold
The fulfillment of a promise awaits
Hold on, the dawn will break

Ma-ria

Clouded in by puffs of smoke
Bludgeoned by bass and booms
Amidst the dirt and grime
Of false ambitions and pretenders
Of empty lives and shallow dreams
Surrounded by the carefree and the insecure
A vision chanced upon me

Emerging from the drunken haze
Slowly taking shape
Was the marvelous sight
Of a pure soul

She dwells in such places
But she radiates like summer's day
She is warmth upon touch of skin
Melting the cold of indifference
She is the comfort in soft sheets
A long forgotten lullaby

Oh, that familiar light
That stabs into your chest
Grabs your hopes and desires
And drags it wherever it goes
That light has come again
It keeps me on my toes
In neverending anticipation
In regret and ambition

Will I only have that one night?
Let the dreamer's dreams take flight

Lost battle

The pangs of jealousy sink in deep
And again, I can't accept our dispositions
I don't want to be with you,
But I can't stand you being with someone else
Again, the hands of time turn
Again, I am left by myself

Dedication

Everydbody needs a muse, an inspiration, a distant dream that gets you through retched days and guides you where you want to be. You will never know how much you mean to me. You are a bright and distant star that keeps me company and gives me hope on dark lost nights.

Hourglass

A thousand stars fall from the sky
None fall on me
While brightness overwhelms the earth
I sit in the shadows with my eyes closed
Hoping that when I wake
I'll catch my breath
And dry my eyes
In marvel of the light
