• The Stars Are Dead

    The Stars Are Dead

    The stars sure are gone tonight
    look at the sky and you’ll 
    see that it isn’t right.

    Right, still light out
    But the stars that shine 
    Sure are gone tonight.

    It’s not right so,
    I explored the hearts
    Of men, lights
    Gone from their soul
    Surely this isn’t right

    The stars sure are gone tonight 
    We, They, You, killed them all 
    To seek brighter lights 
    That deceived us and blinded us 

    The stars sure are gone tonight 
    Bright lights surround us, 
    Where must we go 
    But where our hearts echo. 

    We killed them all,
    Maybe someday we’ll
    Understand that that wasn’t 
    Right.

  • On The Surface

    On The Surface

    On the surface, yes on the surface,
    where else but the surface.
    That’s where we all stay!
    Because we are scared of everything
    that comes forth from under the surface.

    There’s a reason we skate on ice
    instead of diving into the lake.
    The surface brings comfort.
    We’re so comfortable but what about the young man
    that wants more, that wants the danger?
    The danger of exploring so much more in life?

    Where would he stop?
    How far would he go?
    How obsessed would he become?
    Because obsession, that’s where it’s at.
    That’s where life begins.
    When you can’t sit still without doing
    what God has created you to do.
    That’s it!
