A greedy lust for warmth and light
The blanket drawn around me
Intoxicating fire bright
Obscures the spark within me
The fuel consumed, the fire quenched
A darkness I remember
Revealing truth that all is drenched
In dim but glowing ember
Inside deep eyes become the same
Beyond a smiles radiance
Together join igniting flame
And burn the growing sun dance

Awaken
Looking back across tomorrow
Changing all that cannot be
Unfulfilled in happy sorrow
Knowing eyes that cannot see
Dreamless sunlight, embracing but forsaken
Sleepless midnight, longs to set you free
When you awaken
When you awaken
Young reflection in the mirror
Turns around another while
Ancient shadows shining nearer
Taking nothing but a smile
Dreamless sunlight, embracing but forsaken
Sleepless midnight, longs to set you free
When you awaken
When you awaken
Changing all that cannot be
Unfulfilled in happy sorrow
Knowing eyes that cannot see
Dreamless sunlight, embracing but forsaken
Sleepless midnight, longs to set you free
When you awaken
When you awaken
Young reflection in the mirror
Turns around another while
Ancient shadows shining nearer
Taking nothing but a smile
Dreamless sunlight, embracing but forsaken
Sleepless midnight, longs to set you free
When you awaken
When you awaken
