Identity Crisis
----------------------------One night she came
from who knows where
black leather boots
platinum spiked hair
Her intentions were clear
from the ultimate start
to make the fear disappear
by acting this part
But
the
men
and
but
you
to those of concern
signals were on cue
with money to burn
nothing else to do
she had class, yeah
know she couldn't fake it
to those of concern
signals were on cue
with money to burn
nothing else to do
she had class, yeah
know she couldn't fake it
Keep going even further even harder, never let up on your cover, never confide i
n your lover
Keep going even faster, even louder, just a ticking like a timebomb waiting to e
xplode
waiting to explode, waiting to explode
She was so protected with this new soul made of armor
that she failed to notice that all her support beams had done rot through
And as her rock and roll haven came crashing, crashing down
quick as a wink she had come she was gone and never found
and it was ME that was left bleeding there
But
the
men
and
but
you
to those of concern
signals were on cue
with money to burn
nothing else to do
she had class, yeah
know she couldn't fake it
But
the
men
and
but
to those of concern
signals were on cue
with money to burn
nothing else to do
she had class, yeah, you know she couldnt fake it
Burning Witches
----------------------------Everything change
just when I felt the bridges burning behind me
not knowing how I should feel
not knowing what is and isn't real
just a kid in woman's body
watching people be unkind
wish I had it all to do again
maybe then I could make it right
maybe then I could sleep at night
This fruitless guilt
abandon me
allow my gifts to flow as free
as the turmoil ahead of me
that goes on for eternity
So many
so many
leaving
so much
blessings
greener pastures reached for in vain
life along the way
hurt left for all to pay
A welcome end
To all my insecurities, well
Cant wait for today
Cant wait for tomorrow
Exhilaration
is welling up inside me
Im exposing myself today
Watch closely as I shine so bright
Im cutting loose
I
I
I
I
wanna
wanna
wanna
wanna

and Ill be here for good
Want It All
----------------------------A touch of your hand
Still causes unease
Commitment to vows
Yet spilling with tease
To look upon the past
There were but two shared kisses
Blindly diving into the center of our untapped cores
I regret that I held back
My tenderness is gone now
My mind is ten years hipper
And I dream of a night once more
Once more
But I will want it all
Want it all (x3)
Not just the motion
But the true emotion
A real connection
Your real attention
An act of closure lest I pass without personal resolve
Want it all (x3)
Big, big plans I had for you
I boil inside when I reflect
I miss you
I miss the escapism you helped me create
The hot air balloon will fly real soon
One last trip
But I will
want it all, want it all (x8)
Self
----------------------------Forever running from the labels that they gave me
A form of coping not a fear of confrontation
When people know me its a sign to pack the house up
Barely fulfilling my own
social obligations
Self
The situation's of exposure
as expected
A sense of humor very rarely ever feels good
My self esteem is contradiction to my true self
No one could ever
really know me
Inside of me there burns a deeper flame
I don't know how it came to me
The woman within is one
that I cannot name
Sit in the circle
Bathe in gold light
Alone I am a goddess
Alone
I am alright
Self
Once in my solace I can shed my outer layers
Extra terrestrial with multi defense shields
Exposing translucent bare
naked pearl
Return to my circle
of gold wheat fields
Self
Longing
----------------------------(I Thought I Knew You)
I thought I knew you
You were my favorite song
Mm hmm I thought I knew you
But I was so wrong
Boo hoo
It burns inside for days at a time
Been so long since I felt content
Blood will simmer through years of storm
Past reform
Now I know that it was wrong
And I gave up my song
Now I know that it was wrong
And I gave up my song
I never dreamed it would be gone so long
To gaze into your soul
Would take voodoo and hat tricks
Candles with black wax
Vile attacks
Now I feel my heart hover
