Come hear ye now this tale of olde
About the girl who runs the show
I am the pawn, I play the fool
Here to serve and not to rule
I've got honor to defend
So I will tell you once again
Princess
Come down off your throne
Or leave me alone
Your every wish is my command
Your power stretches 'cross the land
Through the trees, I see the same
No way to ease this royal pain
I know it tears you up inside
But by your rules I can't abide
Princess
Come down off your throne
Or leave me alone
(ye olde bridge)
Although you subjugate me so
I couldn't bear to see you go
Princess
Come down off your throne
Or leave me alone

Awake

Kill the clock, go to work
My blessing and a curse
Up the stairs and down the hall
Close the door, turn the lock
Wish I could seal it off for good
Seen the walls closin' in
Just like the time before
Never did to much to right it
Told myself this is it
I won't waste another year
Trapped inside this (world)
World's still sleeping
I'm wide awake
Plotting, scheming
Planning my escape
Eyes wide open
Mouth wired shut
Eyes wide open
Talk too much
A step ahead, a step behind
What did you expect
Who ever said that life was easy
Step outside, take a walk
Into my perfect world again
Where no one sees me
Daylight dreaming
Sun in my face
Inside screaming
Take me from this place
Eyes wide open
Mouth wired shut
Eyes wide open
Talk too much
Eyes wide open
Mouth shut tight
Eyes wide open
Feels all right

Tossing turning in my sleep
Trying to find serenity
Searching for the light that once was me
It comes and goes so easily
Darkness ends where it begins
Waging battles from within
Just when all the pressure wears me thin
You pick me up and I believe again
Am I really listening
To hear your voice inside of me
Lost and found and in between
There is no easy way for me
It’s a wonder to behold
To see your dreams slowly unfold
All is sacred
All is holy
All is gold
Never bought or borrowed, never sold
But it’s still a mystery
To hear your voice inside of me
Lost and found and in between
There is no easy way for me
Tossing turning in my sleep
Trying to find serenity
Searching for the light that once was me
It comes and goes so easily

From the seed of Artemis
You’re destiny was sewn
To reign over the darkness far below
Brighter than the stars that shine
Rivaling the sun
You keep the balance
You’re the chosen one
We always change
You still remain
Here you will stay
Until light rules again
You’ve seen the rise and seized the fall
In all your races run
You’ve seen the good and damage we have done
Your gaze it holds the mysteries
That vanished from our sight
You cast your secrets deep into the night
We always change
You still remain
Here you will stay
Until light rules again
As the morning spreads its golden wings into the sky
Your face becomes a shadow passing by
Ebony will fade to day
But good things never die
The old man turns his weary head and sighs
We always change
You still remain
Here you will stay
Until light rules again

Perfect Day

Well I woke up
From a wonderful dream
A gentle smile upon my face
I sauntered up
To my front gate
Walked right through
I was amazed
When I looked down
The streets were paved with gold
But I didn’t slip
Then I looked up
And saw the brightest sky
I’d ever seen
So I went down
To the corner store
And found some long, flowing beads
They were shiny
And they were free
I put them on
And it worked out perfectly
Well I happened upon a park
Next to a clear running stream
I had stop and see
So many flowers
And honey bees
And all of the colors there for me
Tested the water
Up to my knees
And It was warm
About 75 degrees
And as I looked down again
My strand of beads
Turned to butterflies
And it worked out perfectly
As I laid down
On the green, green grass
I heard a whisper through the wind-blown trees
Furrowed my brow
In disbelief
And felt my soul mate laying next to me
Had no place to go
And nowhere I’d rather be
So I held her close
And we drifted off to sleep

The Door

I know I can make it
I just don’t know when
When all of my troubles
Come calling a again
I hold on to faith
And I wish it to end
When all of my troubles
Come calling again
I know what is good
And I know that it’s right
I won’t live in sorrow
Or give up the fight
To rise from the darkness
And live in the light
I see what you give
And I know that it’s right
I’ve seen all the joy
And how good life can be
I’ve seen all the bad times
And longed to be free
I’ve felt the indifference
Somewhere in between
It took a long time
But finally I see
I’m picking the lock
While I’m holding the key
