how high your highest of heights? how low are your lows?

I have seen you in the eyes of a hundred thousand other stranger faces
I have seen you in unlikely and unfamiliar places
I have seen you be reckless in matters of love
I have seen by degrees the boiling point come and go
[im sorry i have nothing left for you]

someone else's dream

I do not know if I exist... it seems possible to me that I might be someone else's dream... I might be a character in a novel, moving through the long waves of someone else's literary style... —Fernando Pessoa

Turn the light out say goodnight
no thinking for a little while
lets not try to figure out everything at once
It’s hard to keep track of you falling through the sky

then took flight, first light of new morning

and you make boundaries
you never dreamed you'd cross
and if you happen to
you wake completely lost

"he slept 'neath the stars
wrote down what he dreamt
and he built a machine for no one to see
then took flight, first light of new morning"

and now i know something of how a piano must feel
when it looks at the fireplace to see sheet music being used for kindling
smoke signaling the end
sitting there watching all those notes burn away
of all the things i never had a chance to play
to hear the music of what you had to say
and baby, i've been fighting the dreamer in me
and baby, i've been fighting the cynic in me
