Forever And A Day

It's cold and rainy on the outside

With water specks and shivering trees

All I think about is you on the inside

And what things could be if I were free

Of how I could trip and fall for you

Forever and a day

I see your quiet fullness on occasion

Treading with an affirmative softness

All I think about is the act of your invasion

And what I could say to you in tenderness

Of how I could sing and write to you

Forever and a day

In front of you I can't help but be frail
There's a view in your eyes of heaven
And I think that my resolution will fail

What I could give to you in my dark haven

Of how I could hold and look at you

Forever and a day

As I lie awake in the shadows of my mind

Swimming in my rivers of creation
I see that you are a dream inside my wish

Of a reality more real than life

I wish I could tell you everything

With my hands in the fields of your hair

All that I think about is our eternal fling

And what we would share in our affair

Of how I could caress and kiss you

Forever and a day

Darling,

You are on the surface of my every thought

You are the words in all my dreams
And all I can think about

And all that I dare to

Is being in love with you

Forever and a day

Green Monster

Monstre Vert

Monstre Vert
Monstre Vert

Eyes search past the seen
Ears listen past the heard
Nose sniffs past the scent
Mouth tastes past the gorged
Chassis shivers at the imitator

Imitator!
Screams the pain of question
Body lashes the spurned
Soul is unwilling but eyes see green

Feet pull the earth
Legs drag the body
Following Green fallacy!
Shoulders, left and right
Head back
Following Green imaginary!

Imitator!
Screams the pain of question
Body lashes the spurned
Soul is unwilling but eyes see green

Aah
Eyes see green
Ah darling please, tell me there's no validation
I am the green-eyed monster
Eyes,
Wrong side, a rusted coin
Body lead by convicted conceit
Illusion deformed by antiquity
Savage antiquity,
Chews belief
Head back
Following Green

Aah Imitator!
Screams the pain of question
Body lashes the spurned,
Oh my red spurned
Aah soul is unwilling but eyes see green
Oh they see green

Darling please, rob my imagination
For I am the green-eyed monster
Hold me,
For I am the green-eyed-monster

Zelosus!
The larcenist
It ate my past
Drunkard of my future
Aah No! No! No!

Aah Imitator!
Screams the pain of question
Body lashes the spurned,
Oh my red spurned
Aah soul is unwilling but eyes see green
No more!

Green tears pour!
Eyes begin to see the spectrum
Crouched, my soul questions,
Body yearns!
Decide

Soul fights wretched antiquity
I fight the green-eyed monster,
It's so hard
I can't take this anymore!
The,
Seeds of denial
Roots of fear
Stems of shame
Branches of self-doubt

Aah no more!
Admission rain down
Green tree wither
Green tree die
Ah darling please, return to me
Oh return to me,
Your little monstre vert
