Thomas Winchester

You are the hole in my head
You are the space in my bed
You are the silence in between
What I thought and what I said

You are the night time fear
You are the morning when it’s clea
When it’s over your start
You’re my head and you’re my heart

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent
A revelation in the light of day
You can’t choose what stays and what fades away
And I’ll do anything to make you stay

No light, no light
Tell me what you want me to say

Through the crowd I was crying out
And in your place there were a thousand other faces
I was disappearing in plain sight
Heaven help me, I need to make it right

You want a revelation
You wanna get it right
But it’s a conversation
I just can’t have tonight

You want a revelation
Some kind a resolution
You want a revelation

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent
A revelation in the light of day
You can’t choose what stays and what fades away
And I’ll do anything to make you stay

No light, no light
Tell me what you want me to say

Would you leave me if I told you what I’ve done?
And would you leave me if I told you what I’ve become?
‘Cause it’s so easy to say it to a crowd
But it’s so hard, my love, to say it to you out loud

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent
A revelation in the light of day
You can’t choose what stays and what fades away
And I’ll do anything to make you stay

No light, no light
Tell me what you want me to say

You want a revelation
You wanna get it right
But it’s a conversation
I just can’t have tonight

You want a revelation
Some kind a resolution
Tell me what you want me to say

Deeper in, deeper in, a sweet voice lures you
Into the depths of the forest quietly
Come on in, come on in, I know you want to
Go deeper into the forest for a treat

Hurry up, hurry up
Just come as fast as your legs can run
Through this empty field so dark

Just come on, just come on
I promise you this game will
Be so much fun so get on your mark

This cinnamon stick’s filled with magic,
Spells get cast so frequently

Just imagine drowning in the sweetest
Syrup in the whole wide world
Dreams will relieve you of all your stress,
No need to keep crying like a mess

All of these treats are heaven-made by hand
Have one and drift into sleep

Once your asleep then you will be
Surrounded by these images of me
When you take your blindfold off
You’ll be able to see reality

You’ll get to see your hands tied up
They are bound with strings
And are dragging at my heels
At this point you’ve given up

Oh, it’s a lovely deal!

Sometimes we see the shine of our doubts
They’re laying at the tip of a double edged knife
I told you, love’s just fake,
And there is no feeling of it in this life

Holes in your blindfold I saw something that maybe
I shouldn’t have glanced over to see
Shadows dance as night grew
The darkness surrounded us and
It soon began to frighten me

Oh my, oh my, such a bad kid!
How dare you wake up so early?

If your blindfold comes off easily
Maybe I should blind you myself?
Hey look, now you’re laughing out at us
Well isn’t that the cutest thing you’ve seen?

But even so you wear nothing but lies
So let’s begin our play night

Hey.. Just give it to me? *giggle*

Why are you shaking so rapidly
In front of me like a scared little mouse?
Milk is what you want from me
Because it made you well at your old house?

This is my domain, I keep it clean,
There’s no difference from any other place
I’ll bow down and make you feel at home
So now you shouldn’t even lose your face

Give me that, quickly, quickly
Just give it here, hand it over to me

Don’t ask why or when or where,
You don’t even know the half of it
Eat these sweets, they’ll tempt you to belieive
All our fake hospitality

Give me that, quickly, quickly
Just give it here, hand it over to me

We’ve always seen
The power that exists inside of our dreams
The way to change the world

I was the only one who heard you cries
In that lonely shell within the noise
I only laughed at it and my weakness
Got exposed into the void

Only you knew where you could go
Only you had that sense of purpose
While chasing a sky different from our own

We’ve always thought the future never changed without courage yet
You always had a warm smile just for me
The days we were lost in the world named the past
Until the present called us back once more

The first time we met I wanted to know
More about you but I was too scared
I was frightened at how the distance
Between our hearts was way too far

We both knew it was hard to learn what
We needed from each other so
For now we can work toward a new dawn

All I want is to erase your suffering if all
I can do is hold back your tears and your pain
(But as I run) But as I run I get too far
From your sweet embrace (I miss you even now)
How long do I have to keep running?

I was the only one who heard
Your songs in that lonely shell within the noise
And sure enough I saw the for
I’d thought I’d lost long ago so long ago

Will someone there please come and
Guide me to the power to change
This future where I walk alone with my pain
I can fly higher than the clouds in the sky
Through your smile alone

We’ve always wished for courage to connect our hearts together
To keep on smiling with you forever more
The days we were lost in the sad world named love
Until the true me called us back once more…

Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus! Sanctus Espiritus!

In my darkest hours I could not foresee
That the tide could turn so fast to this degree
Can’t believe my eyes, how can you be so blind?
Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside?
Time keeps on slipping away and we haven’t learned
So in the end now what have we gained?

Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve, can we break free
From chains of never-ending agony?

Are they themselves to blame, the misery, the pain?
Didn’t we let go, allowed it, let it grow?
If we can’t restrain the beast which dwells inside
It will find it’s way somehow, somewhere in time
Will we remember all of the suffering
‘Cause if we fail it will be in vain

Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve, can we break free
From chains of never-ending agony?

Sanctus Espiritus, Sanctus Espiritus…

Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve, can we break free
From chains of never-ending agony?

Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus Espiritus, insanity is all around us
Sanctus Espiritus, is this what we deserve, can we break free
From chains of never-ending agony?

I text a postcard, sent to you
Did it go through?
Sending all my love to you.
You are the moonlight of my life every night
Giving all my love to you
My beating heart belongs to you
I walked for miles til I found you
I’m here to honor you
If I lose everything in the fire
I’m sending all my love to you.

With every breath that I am worth
Here on earth
I’m sending all my love to you.
So if you dare to second guess
you can rest assured
That all my love’s for you

My beating heart belongs to you
I walked for miles til I found you
I’m here to honor you
If I lose everything in the fire
I’m sending all my love to you.

My beating heart belongs to you
I walked for miles til I found you
I’m here to honor you
If I lose everything in the fire
Did I ever make it through?

- Green Day, Last Night On Earth

I can’t escape this hell
So many times I’ve tried
But I’m still caged inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can’t control myself.

So what if you can see the dark inside of me?
No one would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
(This animal, this animal).

I can’t escape myself
(I can’t escape myself)
So many times I’ve lied
(So many times I’ve lied)
But there’s still rage inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can’t control myself

So what if you can see the dark inside of me?
No one would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal.

Somebody help me through this nightmare
I can’t control myself
Somebody wake me from this nightmare
I can’t escape this hell

(This animal, this animal, this animal, this animal, this animal, this animal, this animal)

So what if you can see the dark inside of me?
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
(This animal I have become)

I close my eyes, the touch of your fingers

Through monochrome the memory lingers
Into your hands I’m resting the pain inside me

I clear my mind, of this unforgiveness.
All of my scars, and all it’s traces
You and me, I see

A dream of blind destiny

And it’s into your arms I’m melting

And it’s the first time I’ve ever felt like this
You are the hand that’s dealt me

The tempter sealing my fate
With a kiss



[Chorus:]

And in a flash, the stars align

I search beyond the words, wanting a sign

But lost inside your eyes

Lies become clearer to see

They tell a different story

So take the reins and don’t let go

I want this pain to scar deep, for I know
All our past recieves healing, with memories concealing,
We cry to the light of the moon.

This night’s become a wonderful haven
And in my heart, it’s what I’ve craven.
Addicted to this sea.
I’ve even lost the need to breathe.

And it’s out of my life, you’re fading.
And it’s the warmth of your arms I still desire.
Stuck all alone, I’m praying
to never share my one kiss with a liar.

And in the dark, I’m left alone.
My heart inside is losing every tone.
And spotting all your lies,
Wise of this path to be free
I’m writing a new story
I fall asleep to tainted dreams
I know that there is more to all that seems
Wanting all my desires to never retire,
I live by the light of the moon.

And it’s straight to the sky, I’m flying
And it’s the knowledge that you will not be there
Struggling through, I’m trying
To find my own escape out of this snare.

[Chorus]

So here’s another kiss

To tainted bliss

A toast to empty promise

With virtue pretending love as our ending

We fall by the light of the moon

The backwards inversed butterfly will face the bright light someday
I chop my hair off with you gazing in the mirror
The soft echoes of footsteps sound in the hallways during class
The sound of the never-ending rain follows so slowly

The touch of the figure is brightly blinding me now
It can be a sweet flower and a poisonous fruit too
Today it’s raining yet again and
I want to connect his sky and my sky together now

[Chorus:]

In this craziness, uncertainty
I wonder if we can hide away the thoughts of everyone
Every person, somewhere else

In this craziness, you gave me life
I wonder how far a single thought
Can be protected and always safely underguard

Do you remember the story of the inversed butterfly?
The exchange of long letters has never stopped between us
And even if I’m sent drifting in the seas, I will swim
The constant relentless voices are like ocean waves

While I truly believe in the spreading melody
The soft rhythm feels like weeping in eternal sorrow
It shall rain always and the present melts into the future
Or at least I want to think so

In this craziness, uncertainty
I wonder if we can hide away the figures of
Every person somewhere far away

In this craziness, you gave me life
I wonder how far a single figure
Can be protected and kept safely underguard

Hey now~ Feelings that just cannot be told in real words exist
It doesn’t matter how far people can stretch out their hands;
An unreachable place lies within all
Because I love the silent inner thoughts of each and everyone
Even if I do not become something real, I shall never change on any day

[Chorus]

In this craziness, uncertainty, each and everyone’s aspirations
In this craziness, you gave me life, it is a single brilliance
In this craziness, uncertainty, each and everyone’s heart beats
In this craziness, you gave me life, it’s a single impression

In this craziness, uncertainty, each and everyone’s gaze
In this craziness, you gave me life, it’s a single coincidence
In this craziness, uncertainty, each and everyone’s warm heat
In this craziness, you gave me life, the promise is one and alone

..Sounds good.
