Truth is a Mute Point My hands are tied and there's tape on my mouth I feel the sting of the rope on my skin Coring me like an apple I taste the glue as my tongue presses against the tape But the truth is too weak to break through And keep you from jumping off a cliff I remember when my hands...

Crossroads Walking down a road You come across a corner You trip on a rock And fall on your face Because you don't know what you're doing But you brush yourself off anyway And just keep walking Because the road's pretty smooth And boring Sometimes people join you And sometimes people jeer...

Tick Tock Tick tock goes the clock Time is wasting away Tick tock goes the clock You can't bear another day The sand trickles so slowly And yet the grains are fine You shake the glass with vigor To make the hours fly Tick Tock goes the clock Time is wasting away Tick tock goes the clock You...

Words As a writer, they seem to be at the root of all I do They're a powerful and majestic force And I can't help but admire their beauty The way they twist and weave around one another like two coiling serpents The way they paint an impossible picture with an invisible brush There are people...

Chess I sit at the table and look in your eyes Playing this game I once thought I despised We set up the pieces; I'm black and you're white Ready to play in this wordless fight You take the first move across checkered square So slight and small I can scarcely care Now it's my turn to mirror...

The Mask He wore a mask His face was unseen I knew not his heart For his eyes were not seen Why wear a mask? Can't help but wonder Is it out of shame, The fear of thunder? She wore a mask A face I once knew Now is hidden She looks like him too Why wear a mask? What happened to you? You once...
