You

You

In the cool evening air,
I think of you.
In the still light of day,
I think of you.
In my times of trial,
I think of you.
In the blackest night,
I think of you.

And when my time of freedom comes,
 I will love you.

As I need you now.

Traitor

Traitor

I am a traitor to my race.
I have betrayed their trust.
Because they are a people of hate
And I a person of love.

They wanted me to hate
 Hate my fellow man.
 And yet I love you
 And thus conspired against mankind.

When will they find me
 And expose me for what I am?
 But yet I cannot hate you
 No matter what they do.

And are you also a betrayer
 Or are you just like them?
 Oh, I'll give my love to you
 But will you do the same thing too?

Questions

Questions

All is life, light
Stars whirl above, bright
Where do you lead, go?
Is your love real, or no?
Do you care for me, for me?
Or is it your wish to be flee, be free?
All is life, light
Stars whirl above, bright

So many dreams have died

So many dreams have died

So many dreams have died
In my heart
And now another
Of you

How much more heartache must I take
Before I die?
What new pains
Must I learn
Before the darkness?

Let me retire from this life's race
Defeated and forgotten
Torment me not with stark remembrances
Of what could not be
Persecute not this weary soul
With hateful voices

For the first time

For the first time

For the first time I see the blue sky,
For the first time I hear the blackbird sing,
For the first time I smell the scented roses,
For the first time I feel the warm night air.

How could I have been so blind?
How could I have been so deaf?
I have stumbled through life in darkness,
Now you lead me to the light.

No longer will I lie afraid at night,
Afraid of the ghosts of my past.
No longer will I shamefully submit,
To those who have no power over me.

For the first time I live,
For the first time I need,
For the first time I care,
And for the first time I love.
