She walks by the sea counting shells on the beach, 1 - 2 - 3
She picks them up one by one, collecting their ocean sounds
She puts them inside of her pocket, and walks them back to the town
There she says to all of the people, I collected all the sounds

Jack’s Room (2005)
I’m on my knees before you
Down on my knees before your walls
Dropped my convictions for a small
Chance of a glimpse of her again
I’m on my knees before you
Down on my knees before your vines
Somewhat like looking through ice
The semi-opacity of time
Here –
On my own, with your ghost again
Here -
On your own, with my ghost
I’m on my knees before you
Your plants can twist around my hands
You say “The last time you just ran”
But this time… not this time
Here –
On my own, with your ghost again
Here –
On your own, with my ghost
Last time you just ran
But this time you just can’t
Last time you just ran
But this time you just come on back,
Your plants can twist around my hands
Last time you just ran
But this time you come back, Jack
Your plants can twist around my hands
(around my, around my, around my…)
I’m on my knees before you
I know I’m not much one for prayers
But please let down your veil of ice
I know I’ll find her through time…

Song for a Loved One
The Sunset fades from your eyes,
There's a quiet light, as day turns into night
That day the sun chose not to shine
The wind blew, the rain kept time
As we sat quiet, lifeless, broken
Nothing uttered, nothing spoken
Your smile, sleek and wise
Brought all your thoughts to life
The brilliance of your mind, bright light, fight
or you'll never be, you will never be here for
Another minute, another day, another year, a birthday cake
Family dinners, holidays, and time keeps moving on
Another mother, another son, father, daughter, another one,
And time just keeps on rolling on and on and on and on...
The suddenness of it all, left us in freefall
Reeling, feeling small
So many things, left unsaid
I just can't wrap my head around you being gone
So long, loved one
You will always be, you will always be with me

Chocolate (2002)
“Some days I still like your face” he says to me
“And your turquoise veins, and the copper-tonic mane
That makes you white”
“I’m at my whitest today” I say to him
“Steve’s in a casket somewhere in a village that
I haven’t seen for a decade”
He died…
“Don’t feel you have to come back” he says to me
“It’s a small room and it’s packed with so many
Irises and good intentions, your head will spin”
“My head is spinning, my mouth
Tastes like chocolate” I say “he’ll never taste
Anything anymore, does that seem strange? I’m not okay”
He died…
There goes another in his flying machine
I played a mother, and Shelley played me
And Kirk played the loveliest fag we’d ever seen
Another brother on the floor, trample on and shut the door
Dust at your feet, just let it bleed
He died...
