Complexity

Complexity scares me
Because if I describe it well
Is it still complex?
If it's really complex
Will you be able to understand
What I'm telling you?

Simplicity is nice
Small words
With big meaning
Large words
Don't understand
When you know you understand simplicity
You know that it's not
Complex

Hope

As I lie on this hill
Back on the grass
Face to the sky
Is there any hope in this world
That men can deny?

Stars circle my swollen mind
With everything but thoughts
Our final checkout counter
What hope can we bring to the table?

The dirt on my hands
Still reminds me that I'm here
But any moment now
Everything could disappear

And somehow...

I'd be okay

Sincerity

Like a love note waiting to be written
Starting a book but far from the beginning
Sitting in the land of silence
We're all slaves to the world
Except for the few that get away
While I run in place your heart is free

Freedom, what is freedom?
Freedom, what is freedom to us?

A sea that roars in the morning time
A cloud making the way for blinding light
All a part of the ever changing tide
