I was young when I went off
to find myself, without you
to find myself
...
For a brief time in my youth
he was a friend of mine.
He was several years younger than me,

No one knows your glory
No one knows your shame
No one's heard your story
And no one knows your name
...
The pressure's building on your brain
Taking you to madness and from the sane

There once lived some grapes who hadn't much ambition
except to survive by the heat of a fire
then came the day when one grape was sick of the fire

Memories
of hippies, barefoot
playing Frisbee in the park
drinking beer from light green bottles
...
If all I had were words that stand
as tall and strong as any man
I'd arrange them in such a way
...
Collapsed in the corner
of my reality
looking out at the festive gathering
I confront my inner stranger
...
I have searched the world all over
forever in blue
trying to find a four-leaf clover
to help get me through
...
At 5: 30 a.m.
I OWN THE ROAD
aside from a few curious rabbits
it's just me and the wind
...
The rustling of branches
a lone eagle spreads its wings
across a brilliant sun...
and all who are free
...
THE WAY OUT
is through the door
if I know nothing else
of that I'm sure...

Self Discovery
I was young when I went off
to find myself, without you
to find myself
What I found was a boy
without love, all alone
all by himself
It was too late to turn back
I believe, and if I could've
you know I would've
Just what I learned was to love
people back, the ones who care
the ones who share
When I drive by our old home
I could cry, times we've had
the things we've shared
And in the end nothing's found
that wasn't already there
down deep inside
there was Love...
I found Myself.
