Once in a Dream
02:53
|
|||
Sometimes sounds of doubt infect your mind
Metastasize and take control of your life
But you must dig down deep exactly where you need
to find the strength to face a world of broken pieces
do the things that you can do to make it better
individual responsibility...you.
Maybe you'll wake up in time to die
or make me wrong and prove yourself right
Find the very thing thing that you were born
to put your heart into to turn this world into
a place where everything is shared - true humanity -
The greatest gift that you could ever give is love
There's no way we can grow with the standard set so low
Try to feel what real freedom is..to freely live
Just not like this.
Lovely...it's just as you described.

Caught in a Quiet Room

I'm caught in a quiet room
with no one to listen to me
it's not the way I choose to be.
An empty seat next to me
the seed of my destiny
keeping the best of me from you
Life is such misery. Life just won't set me free.
How can one love at all when all that they've loved is gone?
Take what she's given you
and keep it right next to you
let all your words be true, indeed.
For tomorrow may never come
where nothing can be undone
where I am the only one in need.
It's the best and the worst of things
that the twist of this tragedy
is how something so sad can lead to so much growth.
A basic dichotomy just like the front and the back of me
all alone with a memory of me and you.
Life is a mystery. Life's more than history.
Where it has been is gone. The best thing is to move on.
Live on.

Hope Never Dies

I’m all alone, I’m pretty low
Nobody seems to mind
A deep blue sea surrounding me
Unapproachable from all sides
That’s the way it is. That’s how I live
I haven’t been trying to hide
I’m on a road that no one else can find
There’s a sign on a pole but I might as well be blind
There’s a lonely cold that just won’t die
But something still glows…and it’s hope
I spent some time…analyzed…realized that I create my space
Reality is simply how I choose to see Me and my eternity
Love is long and fear is wide I think I'll be alright.
I think I even might
Find a road I never thought I’d find
It was there before I just couldn’t see the sign
It’s been so long Since I’ve felt another way
I'm finally alive – I've realized – that hope never dies.

Not This Time

Doug Hawk Easton, Pennsylvania
This is intelligent, inspiring, grooving music that not only makes you think but move, as well. Lyrically topical with a positive message. Comparisons to artists such as Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai and Steely Dan are accurate but in a purely derivative sense. Hawk has emphatically created his own unique sound. ... more
