Black clouds moving gray sky to thunder
Kinetic sunrise fever and blood
Fire and water element anger
Horizon melting to blood.

By The Light of Day
By The Light of Day.

Silent wheel advancing years
Power and agony growing fears
Love's a dream some pretend
Accelerates an early end.

By The Light of Day

Reprise

Don't tell me that
the wages of sin are for real
Writings on the wall
(What's) the score what's the deal?
Don't wonder we can't see
(thru) the wood for the trees
No perfume we design
can ever veil the sickness on the breeze.

By The Light of Day
In the Dead of Night.
 

Rip the sheets off cold ice again
Wolf at the door
Can I stand
A dog's life here for one day more.

Close my eyes imagine somewhere
So far away
Silversand
And azure Caribbean Sea.

Sick of solitary holidays
Cause I never get away from here.

I listen to the water drip down
In to the cell
Run amok
If I survive this living hell.

Holding up this cold calaboose
C A P T I V I T Y
Even takes
My lucid thoughts away from me.

TIME TO KILL
going nowhere
KILLING TIME
staying where there's......
  

Chasing rainbows for a lifetime
left to go
Like shadows from the sun,
Run into traces
Of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more
echoes of a day gone by
When someone else would have to try
To light the stars
......In your sky.
           [Your dark sky]

All the things you planned
Just sand castles washed away
On tidal waves of tears,
fears overpowering
Your complex dreams just slither down
drowning in rocky pools,
Or smashed and dashed
On peril's course, forcing prematurely
Of lasting love
......In your life.

Sometime we need time to spare
Feeling of missed opportunity
Spare a tear and douse your bridge...
 burning
30 years and on the ledge....
learning.

All the things you planned
            [baby]
30 years in bed.

Sweet music's conversation
Play for all creation here.

Melody fair.
Lost in contemplation
Drown'd in meditation
Need your inspiration near.
 
When I'm alone
I remember
Truth is lasting.

With the sun in your eyes
And a simple disguise
You fooled me
Strange how your calling is clear.

From the sound of your voice
You don't give me no choice
You prove me
Deep lies desire for your quick'ning fire.

Well it's a hell of a ride
When your courage inside
Deserts you
Clear though the calling may be......
In a terrible way
You continue to say
You need me
Show me the way through your dark red door.
