Where is my shining World?

With the coming of the wave
Feet go crunching in the sand
Every time I'm hit
The misfit tends to curl inside.

Waiting for the saving grace
While I hear the madmen rave
I scream aloud to the sun
The misfit in me, curls inside again.

Your eyes do fine,
What does your mind see?
Left to yourself,
What would you be?
Its time again
To ask myself
Where is my shining world?

Breeding love and changing faith,
Killing them and wounding us
Freedom never seems to come
And the misfit tends to cry inside

Label her and call her vile
The finger's always there to point
Its ok to make her smile
But misfit still weeps inside

Your eyes do fine,
What does your mind see?
Left to yourself,
What would you be?
Its time again
To ask myself
Where is my shining world?

Call it yours, Call it mine
Make it yours, Its hardly mine
Wake them up, and preach this song
I might not be there, to sing along

Call it yours, Call it mine
Make it yours, Its hardly mine
Wake them up, and preach this song
I might not be there, to sing along

Your eyes do fine,
What does your mind see?
Left to yourself,
What would you be?
Its time again
To ask myself
Where is my shining world?

The curse of a gift

Haunt my thoughts,
Linger around
The border of my mind

Keep me waking
All night long
Till I find my peace

Can I follow you
To the end?
Of this speeding tunnel.

Will you help me up
To the sky,
Up the green beanstalk

I dont think I can understand
Bout' how you always seem to
Surround, get the better of me
But still you make me free.

I guess I'll never escape you
Trust me I've tried
How many people do you think
Have held you to their heart and cried?

All pervading,
It surfeits
And Fills up my mind

Resounding, resonating
Inside the woods
Always conjuring a charm.

Hell bent upon
Your presence here
I have you in my life

Cradling a wish
A silent prayer
Forever, all this time.

I dont think I can understand
Bout' how you always seem to
Surround, get the better of me
And still you make me free.

I guess I'll never escape you
Trust me I've tried
How many people do you think
Have held you to their heart and cried?
