Don't want to explain, our children, why they lack
I tire of pulling the knives off their back...

Our leaders must agree, at some form of solution
"We the People" are suffering, we beg...

Life is the bird that sings in the tree
The fish and gulls that occupy the sea...

I cherish the midnights; we'd spend at the beach
Our heights of passion, we've easily reached...

It's a thing in your heart; it's a thing that you...
It's a thing full of laughter, and can make you...

Why my son didn't come home?
He left me smiling...

Was active, real early, liked football...all...
On the other hand, I, not any of the sort...

Hands clasped under my head, wide eyed gaze upon...
In my bed, restless, suffering varied feelings...

To make you laugh is all too simple
Know your weaknesses, exact spots to tickle...

Since we first met, I find it still frightens
Of how we'd finish, each others sentence...

I wrote a song for you, it's really nothing...
Of our current situation, relationship that's...

My arm extended, I am with fear
I am losing, what all hold so dear...
