Look Away

Take your eyes
Look away, look out

At the clouds and the sun

Turn you eyes
Look up, look around
You've looked at this path too often

Take your heart
Live strong, live true
There's still hope yet in your hand

Make a dream
Stay true, stay firm
Do not let this valley crowd your heart

Say a prayer
Believe, you must believe
In you, this land, and the warm sunrise

Let The Rain Do The Rest

This whirlwind in the brain box
Above a beating flame

I try and try to figure
But it will never be the same


If the universe should conspire
To choose a left from right
Or between an obvious fire
And a subtle pondering night

It shall be no one's blame
When it's all like a game
Each roll of dice or punches
Was never meant to be the same


And so with each new morning
Within my beating chest
I pray to see you smile again
And let the rain do the rest
