An Expression of Me!!

Though I know that evening's empire

has returned into sand

Vanished from my hand

Left me blindly here to stand but still

not sleeping

My weariness amazes me, I am

branded on my feet

I have no one to meet

And the ancient empty street's too

dead for dreaming

Take me on a trip upon your magic

swirling ship

My senses have been stripped, my

hands can't feel to grip

My toes too numb to step, wait only

for my boot heel to be wandering'

Though you might hear laughing,

spinning, swigging madly across the

sun

It's not aimed at anyone, It's escaping

on the run

And but for the sky there are no

fences facing'

And if you hear vague traces of

skipping' reels of rhyme

To your tambourine in time, its just a

ragged clown behind

I wouldn't pay it any mind, It's just a

shadow you're seeing

That he's chasing

Then take me disappearing through

the smoke rings of my mind

Down the foggy ruins of time, far past

the frozen leaves

The haunted, frightened trees. out to

the windy beach

Far from the twisted reach of crazy

sorrow

Yes, to dance beneath the diamond

sky with one hand waving free

Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the

circus sands

With all memory and fate driven deep

beneath the waves

Let me forget about today until

tomorrow
