A sea of faces in a crowded room,
All laughing and spilling drinks,
Feeling so god damn lonely,
Feeling so out of time and place,
I could have just stayed home,
Who are these alien people?
Each one the same as the other,
Talking about the same trivial bullshit,
Listening to the same music,
Sharing the same opinions,
Soulless and pathetic creatures,
Trying to conform and impress endlessly,
Yet... The final joke is on me,
A sea of faces in a crowded room,
The loner, the hermit, the freak,
Is the only face left in the room.

Take My Hope And Run With It
take my hope and run with it,
run to some place far from here,
where the sun always shines,
where your smile never fades,
don't you ever look back,
there is nothing here anymore,
just sadness and melancholy,
that drowns away the days,
in the opiates insidious embrace,
run while you still can,
you will find another place,
a place far from here,
where the sun always shines,
where your smile never fades,
the winds of maiden,
kiss my lips still,
heart, mind and soul,
has fallen gravely ill.
the winds of maiden,
whisper it's true,
that finally...
love has found you.
the winds of maiden,
strip you bare and raw,
making every man shake,
of the beauteous maiden,
that left only heartbreak.
sunless and starless days pass,
deep down wondering what for?
since the winds of maiden...
speak to me no more.
Stella, like a ghost you remain,
a photograph, imprinted in my brain,
long ago, flowing golden hair,
translucent eyes, skin so fair,
you were a Queen, lost in time,
never forgotten, in this rhyme,
living on, my hope still true,
Stella, I forgot to say...
that I love you!
I'm driving my car
In the dead of night
I can see the headlights
Of lost lives passing us by
I'm staring into the horizon
To the endless line of isolation
And I notice the signs of lonesome souls
Wandering along this road
Of dark desperation
I turn on the radio
And Magic Sam's singing:
Sweet Home Chicago
That's right, my honeymoon
We're heading back to home, too
Through this battle of black and blue
Just me and my Caddie
All the way for you
Close your eyes and fly with me,
we're going somewhere you just can't see
Take my hand and float through space,
we're going to a far off place
Listen quietly the words just flow,
through my soul, it will never show,
there's no time, no need for haste,
bring me your lips, I yearn to taste.
walk down my paths lined with flowers,
each one is modest, not filled with power,
off in the distance the storm clouds are brewing,
don't let them get you, it's a life's work undoing.
so much inside me, burning to tell,
forgive my sins, condemned to hell,
the light inside you glows like a beacon
strengthen my mind, my heart you weaken
