Blue (Lyrics by Skye Lyon, Performed by Matthew Sternstein)

Your choice is made but is somewhat blurred
and all your laughs morph into sultry burns.
Helpless and scared, I want to hide

believing your madness died inside.
I try and try to runaway
but your love, your love, can't seem to fly away
from me.
From me.

From me.
From me to you was all I knew.
Lord, I prayed it wasn't true.
After years and years of all my wasted tears,
cascading into mountains of newborn fears.
Countless pleas I sent to you
are now splattered with ink, hued in blue.


From me to you...
Lord, I prayed it wasn't true.
Helpless and scarred, I want to hide
believing your madness died inside -
but your love, your love, can't seem to hide away
from me.
From me.
From me.
From me to you was all I knew.
Lord, I prayed that it wasn't true.
After years and years of my wasted tears,
cascading into mountains of newborn fears.


I love you.

I love the blue.

Your choice is made but is somewhat blurred
and all your laughs morph into sultry burns.
Helpless and scared, I want to hide

believing your madness died inside.
I try and try to runaway
but your love, your love, can't seem to fly away

from me - to you was all I knew.

Lord, I prayed it wasn't true.

Life & Death: The Lovers

Life, loyal to her beloved, Death
take small amounts of passionate breaths
in between a prolonged eternity.
Their relationship is of a tumultuous kind
where neither her mother, Nature, nor her father, Time,
can intervene through their love’s sincerity;
however,
Death wipes the tears from vivacious Life’s eyes
and explains to her they were not created for such a mortal like prize.
Life abides yet forlorn and left wondering "why",
while Death must always vow to tell his loved ones goodbye.
 
"Of Life & Death"
