When I was a little boy
I couldn’t stand
The bland rattling of a day
A stilted dissonance
Of scattered sounds
Gushing from away
Swaying in a daze
I heard a Siren’s voice
A gentle, soothing grace
It led me far astray
I fell into a well
Where tuneful music dwells
Since then I can’t seem to shake it off, no
Those constant melodies
Keep seeping through my skin
But than I wouldn’t let it go, no
It helps me blending in
Get through another day
When I was a little boy
I tried to make sense
Of random, rambling noise
Now everywhere I go
I hear rhythm in the clatter of footsteps
So it goes

Lullaby for the Dead

Go to sleep, the sun is up
Brush away all worries and concerns from the past
Fear of which won’t leave you in peace
Muffling moans of your distress
Day will ease, so you can lay your heavy heads
Let us learn from our own mistakes
There’s no cure for us to take
Go to sleep you hauling ones
That soothes the pain which stings your eyes all dry, cried out
Wait for us by the moon to come round
Autumn clouds of fading gleam
Come too fast, rustling leafy melodies
Swaying trees put US to sleep this time
There’s no cure for us to take
I’ll put on my shoes
My worn through coat
I’ll take few mementos
To remember who I was
I’ll follow your lead
Curator of worlds
Time disappears
I wouldn’t know which path to go
I need to hear a calming voice
Sing for me goodnight
Sing for me goodnight

Ethereal Beauty in DMaj

your blooming shine
like snowdrops from their hide
watch when to grace my sight
playful smile
an easy, radiant charm
quivers even the steadiest branch
the way you walk
leaves me all shy, mesmerized
and how you talk
I could drift on the down of your voice
fleeting sighs
enchanted senses blind
I'm wrapping my dreams around you
saving for nostalgic times
just passing by
presence ephemeral
letting me adore you, while
you're sending me a kiss goodbye

Cold stare on back of the neck
The silent breath, the constant footsteps
Just turn around to hear frightful echoing
The noise when no one’s near
Has grown to the point where I can’t take no more
Incessantly split among too many selves
STAY HOME, STAY HOME
AND HIDE AWAY FROM TAUNTS
STAY HOME, STAY HOME
THE COMFORT OF MY OWN
I could stand above them
Laugh at every pity thrown to me
I could dance on every tear shed out for me
That unyielding chill
I moon about to shake it off my back
Just allow it in, I can never hide
STAY HOME, STAY HOME
AND HIDE AWAY FROM TAUNTS
Sneering eyes
Of all I have never tried
Shapeless sparks
Are glowing but are yet to light on
Those mad, eager spikes
Pushed to the depths of my mind
Left helpless smiles
