Deep down inside, my stream of hope,
Becomes jus' a trickle, and flows down the slope.
The single, last drop of power,
Evaporates, leavin' my spirits lower.
In my mind, the river of tranquility,
Dries up, and destroys the lush vicinity.
And the ragin' sea of my strength,
Becomes barren and lifeless throughout its length.
And I, thank him for the oodles of love,
My last resort, my treasure-trove..........

The healin' rain.......
In the blood-red skies,
Rises the smell of burnt flesh,
Frantic little human hearts,
Plummet into the bottomless abyss,
Cries of fear and pain within,
There's chaos in the noisy sepulchre,
Ah! Cry a thousand hearts,
Waiting for the healin' rain......
What's in the heart of hearts,
No one's gonna understand,
Full of evil and ugly warts,
With all emotions going bland,
A thousand hearts torn into shreds,
Jus' a second was all it took,
Ah! Cry a billion hearts,
Waitin' for the healin' rain......

Red River.......
The breeze bears a sepulchral air,
The pain within, more than we can bear,
The waves lashing at our feet,
Brings the worst fear we're gonna meet,
Where, is the healing love??
The view, that makes us go wow!
He, made the miracle of birth,
The grief which came with cruel mirth,
The air-borne castles come crashin' down,
And tears stain the bloody crown,
This bloody bloody battle-field,
Weapons these arms did never wield.
Time brings down the mayhem,
We forget even what brought 'em,
Unlike those numb broken hearts,
Pierced thro' with venomous darts,
Each tear in the stained ground,
Like salt on the open wound.
Red River, flowin thro' the town,
Red River, floodin' our minds,
Red River, sweepin' away the stain,
Red River, over the sands of time......
The pain within, more than we can bear,
The waves lashing at our feet,
Brings the worst fear we're gonna meet,

Untitled.......
You're still there in these dreams,
Takin' my breath away,
A body sweet like cream,
Spellbound, what can I say!
It's all jus' in my head,
Still, I lose my cool,
As I lie awake in bed,
And I prove myself a fool!
As my eyes seek reality,
The goddess disappears,
Her head held in vanity,
And a known silhouette appears!
Tired and speechless I lie,
With covers all over me,
A single tear escapes my eye,
I know what's it gonna be!
I wash it down the sink,
Calm and cool I get,
And I gave a wink,
In the mirror, when my eyes met!
Takin' my breath away,
A body sweet like cream,

Still, I lose my cool,
As I lie awake in bed,
And I prove myself a fool!
As my eyes seek reality,
The goddess disappears,
Her head held in vanity,
And a known silhouette appears!
Tired and speechless I lie,
With covers all over me,
A single tear escapes my eye,
I know what's it gonna be!
I wash it down the sink,
Calm and cool I get,
And I gave a wink,
In the mirror, when my eyes met!
