. . .


Would you hold me tonight
Would you stay with me anyway
Would you love me and not my need to be loved
Would you honor my wishes

Would you trust me
Do you really want to
In the garden of delight
Will it be my bloom that still excites you
And would you honor my wishes

Will we ever meet again
In the house where we started
Will I feel the suede of your skin
As you move to turn off the light

. . .


little did I know
you're my holiday
the place where I escape
to forget about how I don't see you enough

to displace the rage
defuse the urge
to throw it all away
and become your slave

I'll take you holiday
let's go holiday

this is not a dark thought,
not from one who needs constant reassurance
you give me the sword an the power
to slay who I like
and to be who I like

and I will be the one for you, holiday
yes I will be the one for you, holiday

where do the arrows point?
to my holiday
where do I feel the sun
in my holiday
where does my hoeart start to beat?
at the bridge to your eyes
at the path to your scars
at the sway of your diamond black ocean

I feel this serene
when I let myself go
and give up all control
and my worn-out desire
to be free.

. . .


I'm so happy to be loved
Throw me down and light me there
'Cause I'm an awful mess
I haven't a care
We're eternity
Oh I feel the sigh on
Every breath that's met us here
This night dreams fantastic
And it's ours my dear
And you love me too

How on earth could you have found me
Huddled under grapes of wrath
I will never know but forever ask
How I got so lucky
All this time proceeding
Silent in processional
The words they escape me through my singing cage
Of how I love you too

It's safe to be alone
And be lonely
But I found a gun
With no safety
And I am going to shoot down
My ghost town completely
'Cause I know there's a place for us
I made it, I made it

I am through with sharing all my love
I have outgrown crowding up my house
When you found me, I could not be loved
But then I found me and I'm happy to be loved

. . .


This is the one I will try
This is the one I will try
This is the one I will try
to be lonely with
This is the one I just know it
This is the one I want to show it
This is the I would die for
to be lonely
to be lonely with
Anything for you
Anything I do seamless
I'll brave the night alone
The darkened sky
Uncertain skies
I'll make it through
It's a wondrous night
Protect me night
I'll make it through
This is the one I will try
This is the one I will try
This is the one I will try
to be lonely with
This is the one I just know it
This is the one I want to show it
This is the I would die for
to be lonely
to be lonely with

. . .


I feel us burning infinite alright
'Cause I have been waiting all my life
To hear the words you say
Tonight I'm born again

I feel an ease inside my heart alright
How do you feel
How does it feel to be inspired
Water from a stone
Indeed I'm born again
I am new again
And I feel alive

For the first time
I must make you my wife
'Cause I've lived too long
Already gone
In this life I have you

It's in the turning of your weathervane
You trust the wind to guide you to the place
Where you belong, it's where I belong

In your face I see my life unfolding
But we have so many fears
Let's gather them today
And let them fly away
With the magpies

Yes I love you
With the fire of my namesake
Didn't live too long
Seventeen and gone
But what I learned from St. Joan
Is heed to the voice in your heart
In this life, in this life

I'll cross time
I'll break the hourglass
If the pink smoke cloud will bring me
To the back of your car

'Cause we make the fire work
Just listen to the sound

I never knew this could be true
But now I've got you here
Along with me now to say
In this life, I have you
Yes I see your eyes
They're gazing in me, could it be

. . .



You changed me
You chained and taught me
The damage I’ve done
Can show me the way to my heart
Sing out my love
’cause I’ve been her before and silence don't get you a thing
I learned this on the way to my heart
It was with you riving ton deep September
We took the long way and your hand and lead me home
Like a ray you woke my heart
With your northern lights with your soul
Yes you saved me
Origami doll i wonder if you'll do it again
Please do it again
I'll thank you from the deep of my heart
I thank you for the start of my heart


. . .


I'm watching you become a man
Well how does it feel to be living
This wild enchanting dragon-whipping
You stepped into my better life
Without a seam out of place and I wondered
When you'd struggle from your neatly pleated covers

'Cause I saw you in my life in the end
For better or best
You would be my man

I wanna throw you up against the hard white wall
And make you mine, and make you mine
But there is time I must be gentle with
This rare chance-taking wonder-child

Make it through the jungle
And I'll meet you on the other side

'Cause there was magic in our dancing tonight
For better or best
You would be my man

Man don't you want to dance
To the swing of the bach courante
To the sway of the leaving trains
To the swish of your lash, I cry
To the soar of the shadows
To the hustle of chance
To the mystery in our hands

'Cause you've been moving
Through my wintery night for a long time
And snow has fallen at our feet
We watched the tracks of blood disappear
And you, you, you
You stood by me

So are we go on leaving nothing behind
Leaving nothing behind
You would be my man

The hard white wall
Up against the hard white wall
You're my hard white wall

. . .


Why don't you save your soul
Let loose your dogs of war
Abandon your done capital
Burn all your flags and hold onto
Hold onto nothing

And the stones in your stomach
Become a part of the sea
And the mark that your footprint leaves
In the sand starts to lighten
And finally whispers
Whispers "I am gone"

Don't wait for the last page
Don't wait for your final breath
Don't wait for the pendulum to drop
It swings so low today
Don't wait, don't wait for nothing

And you'll wrap up the tears
Of forty thousand gone
Who wish they'd acted out
When they had time
And they had voice
To tempt the furies
The furies are not gone

Are you not furious
Are you not furious
Are you not furious
Are you not furious
Furious

Wait for, wait for, for what
Wait for, wait for, for what

Are you not furious
Are you not furious, enough
Are you not furious
Are you not furious

. . .


Sleep now, little one
I'll sing to you, little one
There's no one here
Who means you any harm
Little one
I know what it means to be sad
It never goes
So learn to hold it close
As a friend
'Cause we never know
How much we can take
Before we break
The spell in our haunted house

I've never felt alone
Like I do now, this moment
I don't belong here at all
Must find the spark to go on

Little one
'Cause I owe it to us
To tend the fire
And fend off fear
The fear in me
So near to me
It never goes
So learn to let it in
Like the rain
'Cause we never know
How much we can take
Before the storm breaks
The storm of our wild design

I've never felt this way
Or maybe I do everyday
What is this gift to be alive
Must find the spark

. . .


Is it right my love, is it right
Are you happy inside your eyes
Can't you see your lover
Fall apart in her silk threads
In time the hunter will find the trail of blood

I see you alone tonight
When will you tear down
Love will save you
Try not to starve yourself of love
Feed your hunger

Is it right, my love, is it right
It's a question with no reply
I am sure of longing to be on the open sea
To feel the comfort of the mist upon my cheek
No I'm not crying

Lose me in your memory
Turn your head
Let me become a part of it
Let me become a part of it

To America, America
Alone, alone, alarm alive

To America, America
Alone, alone, alarm alive

I am the hunter
And I am the hunted
Alone, alone, alarm alive

Two marigolds
We're marigolds
