Visigoths

If I were queen for just a day
I would make the Visigoths turn & pray
I would point them to the sun
I would build them a road to conquer
Come, join us for the feast
Sharpen steel, prepare for battle
On the morrow we ride
I lead only the strong, the brave, the wise
Who fit this shoe?
O my circling majesty, you light me like the sun
O my circling majesty, you lift me till I'm falling undone
Now I am queen and it is night
The Visigoths sleep by fire
Come, listen to them breathe:
smoke rattle in their lungs like choir
Do they dream Rome has fell?
Do they dream of this trip called history?
I need a lover who will dig
... a deep well full of New Beginnings ...
Who fit this shoe?
O my vision here is so real
I lie here in my room, i hold her hand
I hold her hand until she understands:
this web is not for weaving
this web is to unfold
& so unfold, wings unfold
& there she goes:
endless in her flight
& pure in the sky.

Angelicka

Half past 3 and I lay awake,
A man appears by my window.
Angelicka he called me, do not be afraid,
I've waited millenia to tell you,
to be my bride.. to be my bride
Was this a dream oh my heart tripped a beat
He felt so familiar and he smelt metal sweet.
As I moved closer to his shadow on the floor,
saw that he had no reflection and his skin was...
As white as phantom glow, as white as phantom snow
And he held me tight
and he hypnotised every part of my being.
And our lips entwined as he gently eased his fangs into my skin.
And he drinks my wine, yeah my eyes roll back as I enter immortality.
Half past twilight I lay my head
on a soft mossy trunk by the river bed
An owl hoots loudly at the echoe of my pain
as I'mfalling upwards twirling into the darkness
That was his embrace.
Asleep in the day, how I miss the light
which now burns my very existence
I am the queen of lucifer, i am the queen of the night
So listen closely for I'm by your window
This dream will bite..

Roxy come home.
You’ve fallen asleep and its starting to show.
Dream of Rome.
Fly till you wake in the Colosseum.
And with your boots on, measure the steps till they break in your heart.
mini chorus:
Pull me upwards through the snow.
Roxy come home.
The smile on your face is starting to pose.
Behind the red door, the man with fire watches Dalton.
And in the Further … a piano plays a possessing song.
Pull me upwards through the snow.
Hail me a cab where lightning goes.
Roxy come home.
Be the women your Mama knows.
Is that the Ocean … between your toes?
See the garden, stretch till you become the rose.
See the garden. Become the rose.
Pull me upwards through the snow.
Hail me a cab where lightning goes.
Live for the moment I suppose.
Rain your name in light as thunder glows.

come with me - take a leap
over rivers - over seas
take my hand - hold me close
i'm your eagle - you're my horse
bit a glitch in time ! a slow rewind !
big change take hold ... wind shake the dawn
be my stitch in time ! be my bob'n'wind
Heraclitus told: #AllIsFlow
come with me - make believe
i'm the river - you're the sea
let us meet - at the mouth -
forces join north west east south ...

Light

light o light
you burn in my heart
i love that voice
i hear in my silence
i lift o
i lift
my friends to their heart space
i see
my life
in beauty
such beauty and
grace
now's the time
to shine
light through the fears
that we've sown
so tight
it squeezes our chest
and we struggle to breath
this inner child
so bright
she cries to be
free
