CloudlessI've seen a blind woman
Growing cold outside,
An older image of
Our younger selves.
She wears a shard of mirror
And a broken sword
Screaming "Look at yourself!"
She is the scales; she is the statue,
She is what we should have always been,
But she has long since been replaced by greed.
This eternal rain of dust has fallen
Down upon the scales,
And they're broken,
Rusted, and brown...
Falling down
What gives you the right to
Take life away?
In the dawning of our darkest hour,
Who says what's right?
What gives us the right to
Take life away?
While these images are cutting through
A cloudless September sky.Cloudless2 months ago in Songs & Lyrics

TruthLong ago I wrote my wisest words of that young age
I had written many lines, but most I would reject
Suddenly my pencil then entrusted to the page
that the Truth is always more important than its side effects.

And I never knew
If I had written truth

I've been thinking ever since to find the greatest truth
to make sense of the paradox confusing all our lives
A philosopher I soon became
the subject has since stayed the same
Should we think, or should we feel; will the wits or heart survive

And I never knew
How to find the truth

Now, did i finally find the right way
to live, and help you from sorrow?
I'd tell you to know about yesTruth4 years ago in Songs & Lyrics

ImpetusIs anyone there?
Can anybody hear me?
Are these messages
Coming through clearly?
Over a year has gone by
Since I felt the ground beneath me.
How much longer must I wait
Till these binding walls release me?
There are so many worlds
Left to be discovered.
My mind is set on new horizons,
But you're holding me back.
If you are listening to this
Than we have reached the other side.
We've chosen the path
That you so readily denied.
Time, time
It only takes time
Wait it out...Wait
It only takes time
What–
What do you want from me?
I refuse to be the coal
That burns in your machine.
Why–
Why do I even try?
When there's so much
Holding me back from the open sky.
Sitting like a stone,
You don't budge at all.
Crying for relief,
I lie in disbelief.
Sitting by the phone
You act like you don't know.
What's it gonna take
Just to make you break?Impetus1 month ago in Songs & Lyrics

Twelve Days of AvengersOn the first day of Christmas Avengers gave to me;
A man from American History.

On the second day of Christmas Avengers gave to me;
Two great assassins,
And a man from American History.

Three shipped friends,

And a man from American History.

Styrofoam BreathA new sun rises,
A day has dawned.
The tables have turned
And the curtains are drawn.
Static faces in blank disguises,
Two suns can't set before another rises.

Gazing to the unknown horizon,
My whole world is torn.
Flowing from her eyes and into mine,
Prospects are reborn.

The vision forever lingers:
Hair clasped in rigorous fingers.

The sky was murky,
Two drops of color lost in a glass.
Stirred once and left...
Left to sort things out with the amorphous deep.

Frail foundations
Without fair warning,
And angels at night
Have never dreamt of morning.

Expressionless smiles,
Wrinkled, cracked plastic...
Hollow words
neither believes.Styrofoam Breath1 month ago in Songs & Lyrics

Look Away pt. 1When the rest of the world
Is rising above you,
There is only one thing left to do.
Look away, look away...
When the strings of your heart
Are tangled around,
Look away
When you're falling down.
Why do you fight this?
Why do you roam?
Where is your foundation?
Where is your home?
Look away, look away...
Reach out for anything,
Anything at all.
But you know there is nothing
When you fall.
Look away, look away...
When the strings of your heart
Are tangled around,
Look away
When you're falling down.
The clouds above you shine.
You are mine, you are mine...Look Away pt. 12 weeks ago in Songs & Lyrics

No One SleepsFly away
Fly away to this peace of mind.
Break away for just a moment
Break away
Fly away
Fly away to this peace of mind.
Break away for just a moment
Break away
Escape reality
And let your soul unfold.
Arrive at wit's end and
Feel yourself consoled.
Look away.
Reach out and let go.No One Sleeps1 month ago in Songs & Lyrics

Just BreatheClose your eyes and listen,
To the voices in your head
If they really meant to hurt you,
Then you'd already be dead

Lift your face,
Up to the sky
Discover what it means,
To be alive
Quit asking the same question,
The answer is inside!

Just breathe
Open up your heart right now,
You can feel again
Just breathe
And one of the places to start,
Is to let love in
Just, just breathe
Life is full of many steps,
And this is the first it seems,
Let go of what you feel inside,
And just breathe

Open your eyes and listen,
To the world around you
Anything can happen,
But it depends on what you choose

Lift your face,

Not BreakingThe world is thirsty,
It's out for my blood
But if it wants it,
It will have to take it,
Because I'm not going to give it up
Life acts!
Like it can just push me around
Well I've had my fill,
Of all this misery,
And now I'm going to stand my ground!

I admit that there are times...
When I...feel so weak!
I admit that there are times...
When life...forces me to my knees!
I've had enough of life,
It's always taking!
This time I might be bending,
But I'm not breaking!

The world keeps on throwing punches,
That I can feel in my soul
But somewhere inside me,
The flame refuses to die,
And I can feel that spark grow
Life acts!

Look Away pt. 2Fighting away the tension
Breaking away.
And even the prospect of wind
Makes the greatest of waves.
Flying away to this peace of mind, and
Piercing the mountains of clouds.
Above the world and beneath the sky.
Piercing the veil from under the shroud.
Look away, look away...
I'm weightlessly drifting to the ground.
When the rest of the world
Is rising above you,
There is only one thing left to do.
Look away, look away...
When the strings of your heart
Are tangled around,
Look away

Lost Sanctuary"Lost Sanctuary"
inspired by "Passion/Sanctuary" from Kingdom Hearts 2

New lyrics by Joseph Blanchette

All I want is to see you
But you’re so far away

Angels will fly
Beyond the ends of this old planet
To sanctuary, where you have always been

Beyond the endless ocean
They will find you alone

Angels will try
To tell you how much I need you
In my sanctuary, it’s nothing without you

I want you in my arms tonight
But all that I hold is nothing.

Away from pain and darkness
I’ll shield you from it all

Angels will cry
The first time they lay eyes upon you
In sanctuary, where sun bathes you in light

Tears of the PastRain falls down on the trees
Branches heavy with tears of the past
And the wind speaks to me
At my window

Apathy, Indifference
Controlling me - Isolation
Loneliness, Anxiety
Hopelessness - Losing Interest

Meditate on just one thing
Difficulties concentrating
Innocence...In a sense
I am guilty - I surrender

You can't escape from this
If you don't stop
Running away from
Your fears!

Blue-gray streaks are coming down
Perfect skies shine in the distance
Barriers that blur my sight
Keep me in this dark existence

You can't escape from this
If you don't stop
Running away from
Your fears!

Life can be bliss
If you let it be.

ShadowsRose petals wither on the floor
As I am left to douse the candles and close the door.
Drawing the shades to complete the darkness,
Drawing the shades; shadows have never seemed so empty.

Everything that she has taken from me...
There was so much left to say,
And by the chill that she left with me,
I feel I should be able to see my breath.

Rose petals wither on the floor
As I am left to douse the candles and close the door.
Drawing the shades
To complete the darkness

Of what was once so sweet,
there is nothing left but a memory
As the smoke fills the room,
a murky suspension blurs the dim light

Golden stars of dust, suspended,

Fallen AngelAngel, stop crying
Hey Darling
No more tears

Baby, start smiling
Keep fighting
For those years

When all the world made sense
One more hurdle, one more fence

Chorus:
And I'll climb every mountain
To reach you, all alone
And I'll bring down the walls
To reach you, I'm comin' home
And I'll run those many miles
Fallen Angel, all alone

Honey, don't give up flying
Your wings ain't dying
They're simply torn

And the world ain't talking sense
One more hurdle, one more fence

Chorus:

Bridge:
I won't take no for an answer,
I won't take no for today
I won't stop holding your hand and
I won't let you get away

MonologueWhat have I done?
I stand here holding a gun.
I am confused, bemused
And wanting to understand who I am...

I just gotta know -
What's going on inside my mind.
I just gotta know -
What is behind these eyes?

Who is this at my feet?
Where am I? No retreat!
Find myself incomplete,
Drenched in cold, cold sweat!

She is gone; all is lost...
One mistake; what great cost!
Who did this? They will pay!
I will avenge you!

I just gotta know -
What's going on inside my mind.
I just gotta know -
What is behind these eyes?

Who would take from me my deepest breath?
Take the life out of her flesh?
He will taste this pain,

All That RemainsI've lived my life,
By throwing up walls,
That anyone could see...
I've hidden all the passion,
Hidden all the blame,
Hidden everything that makes up me...
It used to seem...
That I was always hiding...

Hiding from the world,
Hiding from the shame,
Hiding from tomorrow,
And hiding from today...

But if you strip away my armor,
If you strip away my pain,
If you strip away all that I've lost,
And leave me all I've gained,
I am all that remains

I am all that remains...

I've taken all I could,
Even when I knew it would,
Only hurt you and me...
All the love that I've felt,
Had been so disguised,
I felt forced to deny...

"Born Again"2 years ago in Songs & Lyrics

Last ChanceTake another look around
This abandoned house you found inside of you
Walls and foundations rot away
This storm will bring you down

This is the last chance to find out
To find that it's not too late to go back
To the last remains of who you were
The last chance to save yourself

Lift this weight upon your mind
Soon this searing pain
Will leave your body blind
Your time is running out
This pressure will become
Too much to bear

The last chance to find out
To find that it's not too late to go back
To the last remains of who you were
The last chance to save yourself!

Falling back with
Nothing below you,
Nothing but the glow

On My KneesThe pain it blinds,
Makes me feel,
Less than alive
The pain defines,
Who I am,
And who I'll be

My destiny,
It eludes me,
Sometimes I just,
Can't see

If I was born to hurt this much,
There must have been a reason for it,
Although I admit, it escapes me
I am strong, and I am proud,
I will face it, I will never back down,
Every moment I will seize
I give thanks, for every day,
Even though I feel this way,
I refuse to spend my life on my knees

The pain makes me wonder,
Just what,
I've done wrong
If I'm being punished,
I think it's gone,
On too long

My destiny,
Lies at my feet,
And I melt every time,
She smiles at me

Holding OnSometimes...I feel,
It's so hard to live today
Thoughts, emotions, wasted dreams,
Just seem to get in the way
And I catch myself thinking,
Do I have the strength
To face each day?
Sometimes I think too much...

I'm wondering, wandering,
Falling so far away
And yet I'm holding on,
To everyone, and everything,
That makes me who I am
Life is about living,
And never giving in
And when it seems that,
I am all alone,
Life is about...holding on

Sometimes...my words,
Just pour from me,
And I can't quench the flood
And it seems that no matter,
How much I write or say,
I just can't do enough
So I hold on to my words,

My poems.My addiction;;

You’re the blood running through my cut up veins
You’re the air that I gasp to breathe
You are everything I truly need
Without you my life is dark and incomplete
You are the one who puts that smile on my undetermined confused face
I often wonder and question my life
Sometimes ask myself why I am still here
It’s as I am consuming the elixir and wine
After eating that plant from that thorny vine of life
That I realize I could still die in heaven and in hell
Because you won’t be there
I need you with me
You are the life support they put me on
You are the only reason I stay alive
You are like my rMy poems.6 years ago in Songs & Lyrics

Collage of the PresentAn ordinary life,
An ordinary day
I never knew it
Any other way

The time fades away
Like the night into the day
Another hour lost
Another bill to pay

The morning washes over me
circling towards the drain
I try to keep going
Ignoring the pain

Looking down at myself,
Staring fear in the face
In the rippling water
I'm being taken from this

Inner disaster
Growing faster
In my mind

I am drifting
Thoughts and memories drift away...

Weigh your future
Bury your past
The time will come
When the first are last

This present moment
Reality so unreal
Functionality fading
Don't understand what I feel
