Going Down

Think I'm in trouble
Feel like I'm lost at sea
Storm blew me sideways
Don't know where I'm bound to be
Longing to go home
Dreaming of better days
Simple and happy
Was another life
Looks like I'm here to stay
I hear a perpetual
Roaring sea
I hear a sky full of stars
Calling me
Come home
Find me
I've been here
For the entire climb
Save me
I'm going down
For the final time
Again
Dreamed I was special
Living to love and learn
Followed a phantom
Down a road of no return
Thought I heard laughter
Thought I would join the game
All these years after
Horrified to learn
I'd left a trail of pain
Waves call me home
Save me

I Had No Idea

I Had No Idea
I laid on a stone
One cold April night
Beneath the Northern glow
The solar wind
Danced over the sky
A ghostly blue-green flow
I loved the sky
I loved the stars
That shined on through
But I had no idea
What love really was
Until I loved you
We rode the storm
Long as we could
Ignored the warning bell
A bitter wind
Rolled in overnight
And dreams of Heaven fell
I know the pain, the loss of love
We all go through
But I had no idea
What losing was
Until I lost you
The darker the night
The brighter the stars
That light the Milky Way
The Summer wind
Whispers through the trees
A dream of endless play
I love the trees
And the silent song
They're dancing to
But I had no idea
What love really was
Until I loved you

Are You a Boy or a Girl?

Are you a boy or a girl?
(Yes, I am)
Can't tell the boys from the girls
(We like it that way)
You dreamed of fashions you wanted to wear
You longed to paint your face and toss your hair
You say you can't go on living a lie
I say the lie's in your own mirror's eye
A gender bender has people confused
Embraced androgyny that they refused
The children ask, Are you female or man?
I am I am I am I am I am
