I Know Not

I Know Not

When I feel the world crumblin in around me
I look to the shattered skies to learn why
All I see up above are the stars colliding
And below the earth is dividing

Chorus:
Is my mind inconsequential
Was it built by some extraterrestrial
{Do I know what I don't know
Just tell me} (x2)

I look around for a rock to stand on
But even they seemed to have moved on
I'm not sure how it is that I can breathe
After watching all of the oxygen leave

Chorus:
Is my mind detrimental
Was it built by some extraterrestrial
{Do I know what I don't know
Just tell me} (x2)

I miss the way my thoughts were before
Back when I knew who I was and I was sure
All the dreams and memories inside my mind
Were controlled by a force I didn't care to find

Now I
must Decide
Do I Dive
Or let my body lie

Do I wait
For someone's late
Mistake
To help me translate

Is my mind torrential
Built by some extraterrestrial
{Do I know what I don't know
Just tell me} (x2)

Tell Her She's Beautiful

Tell Her She's Beautiful

I'm holding a
Bee in my hands
You're in my eyes
And the sun up above
Could never shine as bright
As you...

And the way
You walk towards me
It's like a work of art
I get shivers down my spine
And my brain just won't start
It's you
I just don't know what to do

Because you're sculptural, sensational
I can't believe my eyes
You're wonderful, incredible
Oh, what a sight
You're where the beauty lies

In the in-
flection of your voice
I hear a thousand robins
And I'm dancing to the melody
So sweet serene, comin
From you

Oh my god,
When you lips curve
You can see mine drop
A smile so amazing
Time suddenly stops
Due to you
I just don't know what to do

Because you're sculptural, sensational
I can't believe my eyes
You're wonderful, incredible
Oh, what a sight
You're where the beauty lies

I can barely remember hugs
And the way they felt
But I dream of you in my arms
Making my heart melt
Soft touch surrounds me
Your warmth creeping in
And nothing else matters
Except the moment I'm in

Because you're sculptural, sensational
I can't believe my eyes
You're wonderful, incredible
Oh, what a sight
You're where the beauty lies

(much softer than original)
I'm holding a
Bee in my hands
You're in my eyes
And the sun up above
Could never shine as bright
As you...

Insanity

Insanity

The bed is just a holder
for the smallest bit of sanity
And now I think that I may be crazy
But There's nothing left of me to treat

The soul within that's not my own
Someone else now calls me home
Lost in the sea below the world
Can I be freed where I've been hurled?

The things I see I don't believe
A pure light here has blinded me
From the sights I shouldn't see
in the place where I should not be

Cause they say they love me
They say they need me
But I don't feel they understand
who I really am
They said "Don't leave me"
They said "Believe me"
But I left them all behind
A better place I thought to find, So

I stuggle to remain in this land
As close to Earth as I can
This isn't how it used to be
I remember back when I was free

I feel a push but I resist
The tug gets harder but I don't quit
The light's so pure and my heart sinks
My hold gets weaker I'm on the brink

Cause they say they love me
They say they need me
But I don't feel they understand
who I really am
They said "Don't leave me"
They said "Believe me"
But I left them all behind
A better place I thought to find

But loneliness had conquered all
And thats when I began to fall
No one seemed to notice this
And of my body I did bequest

I hear a voice from up above
Someone that I truly love
I don't know what she tries to say
But Maybe she has found a quay

And as I reminisce my life
And all the struggles, all the strife
I weep the pain of many years
Alone I can't handle my fears

But now I know they loved
I know they needed me
And I fear I understand
Who I really am
They said "Don't leave me"
They said "Believe me"
But I left them all behind
A better place I thought to find

The World is Home

I'm not really sure what to think about this one to be honest. I was hoping for a feeling of realisation but I'm not sure how it all works. Food for Thought: This was written with music in mind, so it may flow oddly...it should.

The World is Home

Space is a place
Where I don't feel so alone
All the stars around
Freeing my soul
knowing I can Go
anywhere I want to Go
Free to Roam
anywhere I want to Roam

The earth is like a fly trap
with its gravity adhesive
And the rockets the we build
are merely passive
I can't escape the fate
that this world keeps drawing me back

To all I've yet to experience
Its left me slightly delirious
knowing what I know
is but a tiny mold
on a rather large loaf
yet to discover what there is to discover

All the people and the places
I have yet to see
All the foods that lay out there
I have yet to eat

The Great Wall of China
The orchard by the sea
The whales of Alaska
and California's Redwood trees

Rain droplets on my nose
Sifting through the prose
In the trees on the leaves
In the greens of the grasses

Space may be my freedom
But this world is my home
and no matter where my mind goes
Here is where I grow
