"Our journey is to the horizon / To seek an unobstructed view"

Chris Barron commented on melodia's lyric:

"i'd like to see a word like journey replaced with something more specific... we sacrifice our soles to the horizon, our chins find the horizon, we grope for horizons, we trip on horizons, touch the horizon, gnaw the horizon..."

Lyric by melodia:

"Our journey is to the horizon / To seek an unobstructed view"

Chris Barron commented on melodia's lyric:

"it's easy to feel like certain words are going to make things work. words like *seek* and *journey* but it's more important to go after ideas that are visceral and strange yet evocative."

Lyric by melodia:

"Our journey is to the horizon / To seek an unobstructed view"

Chris Barron commented on melodia's lyric:

"take an idea from another meaning and cram it into the line to break the language open and make your meaning prismatic. why not *speak an unobstructed view*? now you're an oracle of some kind and the strangeness makes the meaning fan out...."

Lyric by melodia:

"Our journey is to the horizon / To seek an unobstructed view"

Chris Barron commented on melodia's lyric:

"beat up on your lines till they're staggering and punch drunk. if you make the variations cousins to the original meaning, it will get bigger and it won't be nonsense or bluster. it'll be cool. "

Chris Barron commented on melodia's lyric:

"take out the try? *time stands still* remove mitigating words and the line becomes stronger. better yet. how can you replace the well worn phrase with something more yourself and personal? time halts, planets freeze, the wind pauses...."

How far we've come on this emotional hill / Striving for the top takes our collective will
Envision a future with rainbows landing in pots of gold / All of life's riches are about to unfold
She's gone / I'm lost in space / Trapped with this lonely ache/ Just ain't no saving grace / for this unforgiven man
Finally stood up and brushed myself off some bruises some cuts hidden by the scars
Too much dust on these shoes too deep in the blues gonna race down this highway cuz I got nothin to lose
A rainbow of light shines from the prism in your eyes / Filling my world will colors while keeping your disguise
This journey is long and winding along this dusty road / The desert brings new life into my broken soul
A speck of dust becomes a shining star. A star evolves into a flash of light lifting us high and far
I feel the rays and feel the pain I feel sad but with hope that we'll get thru to the insane
The time spent arguing is not time well spent / The jury is still out on what the right message is to send
Yours truly and others have been where you are / Let's share our joyous dreams and know they're not far
You're not lost cuz you've just been found / Stand up let's go let's get you started you again
Hello friend, can we talk about this? What about all the people you will miss?
I am with you, the breeze is strong, we’re here together, just hold on
The exchange of ideas seems lost in the midst
When did we all become enemies?
Rumbling,stumbling, crumbling, fumbling, the worlds in disarray
Only time will tell what will happen to this world
When in that moment you shudder cuz of what you’ve seen / You understand the meaning of what this all means
For all the love we give don’t ever think it’s enough / We gotta keep giving to get us thru a time this tough
Been too long since I touched your face / Since the start of these days
Now when the sun starts to shine / It's so so sublime
This time, this day, hard from the start / The distance so hard to be apart
One world one word the word is care / stand tall stand strong and remember to share
The time will come when we’re steady / are you ready are you ready?
Hold my hand / I'll hold yours / let's write this story together...
We know not what to do / and lack a point of view it’s cold but we feel a spark
The moon disappears/ and highlights all our fears/ we ache yet mistake our part
The mystery haunts taking its time to unfold no clues at all the story still stark
A tortured soul sits trembling in the cold while the owl flies amongst the stars
What's in store with this new start/ what will life bring when it comes from the heart
A heart that beats with a longing so true / dreams of waking to a world not just a room
The gentleness in that face so new / what reflects in those eyes so blue
All the days, and all the nights, she dreams of her new exciting start
Her wishes are of hope / her wish is to shine / her wish will come true / it''ll just take a little time
Her dreams are of hope / her dreams are to shine / her dreams will come true / they'll just take a little time
Her heart beats strong / her focus clear / with a granted wish / she has no fear
I dreamed there was a gift that one could give / I woke to find that with love there is
Out of the blue came this line / Out of this song came dime after dime
An uncertain path, on a journey that can be long / Help me get through this time and help me write this song
Tomorrow Today
The Time Has Come
The kindness of your words, the gentleness of your your touch, it’s the foregiveness in your heart, that means so much
If my dreams could come true what would they be / Perhaps it’s forgivness for both you and me
Like a spider to a fly she draws you back in / will this time be different or just the 1st deadly sin
The lessons we’ve learned how could we have been so remiss / We trusted each other now it’s tine for foregivness
Our journey’s too short it’s time to forgive / It’s time for some romance and love the life we live
I’m gonna shine on you and make you feel high / I’m gonna shine on you and make you see why
The mountain’s obscured by the fog so thick/ the wind overcomes me, my hearts gpne adrift
So now that we’re here what do we do/kiss and make up and start it anew
We’ve talked and we’ve listened, we’ve talked and we’ve listened, There’s doubt in your words with false accusations
The lanes always seem divided while on this ride, let's repave this highway with the love we have inside
Life is worth living even with its ups and downs, let me say I'm sorry for having created all the frowns
This emotional journey can at times be too much, but my confidence stays high with only your touch
Let’s begin this story at the end, and this time I won’t pretend.
There's a peace in knowing that good lies ahead
There's a song in the silence if you listen close
A little child sings/ with hope in sight
This unbroken spirit beams unto all in sight
A night shadow upon us so glorious to see
Take away the dark, take away the greed / clear a path to walk give to those who need
Line by line we write this song, the cause is pure our faith is strong
The 1st of its kind, let the giving begin
Look up to the sky then down to the ground / What can you see and what's all around
What kind of stars will shine in a night that is so dark
Racing To Nowhere
Marathon Life
I Thought I Was Going To Win
Is it the pursuit or the result that will take a toll / Or should I change my outlook and let freedom be the goal
The visions of what was once seen all that's now left is this stark reality
Gazing through the window what an amazing graphic
Holding on to the night shade where I feel the safest
What is the value, having everything you need / But don't know what you want and don't have a clue
Just give me a sign, something to go on / The path is now clear and I have nowhere to run to
A glass full of wine, finally pulled over, I stopped to enjoy the view
Our journey is to the horizon / To seek an unobstructed view
Tried to make time stand still and gain perspective / My focus now changed and deliciously more selective
I beat this drum with only one purpose / Just trying to relax and not be nervous
Subliminal advances you would hardly notice / Unless you paid attention to this opus
In a blink of an eye it could all be gone / Slow this pace, walk don't run
The destination isn't always clear / Gotta stop this rushing, time is too dear
Summer's here with warm beach sand, let's get together, the whole damn band
There's a song being sung and it's calling your name / The melody is sweet and the words have no refrain
Shine a light for each other that points the way / Like a new dawn and beginning of a new day
Jumping ahead, time to get started / Let go of our old ways and keep what's precious guarded
Let's start with the children and show them the way / Give them the knowledge to create a better day
Now that we're here how do we make them understand / We hold the beauty of life in our hands
There's no reason to hide, no reason to run / If we put down our arms and put down our guns
Take each other by the hand / Walk together and share the land
When we talk lets mean it, what we say lets do it, a better way will be found, I always knew it
How we got here is certainly no mystery / Greed and ignorance like thru history
This journey is long but life is so short / Lives are so precious love is our last resort
Respect and love all around / Teach the children there's beauty to be found
Hand in hand we walk thru life / Let's share the world, together
The speed of sound or the speed light / One comes with echo the other comes with sight
You enlighten me with your eyes and your wit / Such a beautiful thing when two souls commit
When it's time to reflect and ponder where we've been / Will our memories be the same on how we began
My journey wasn't realized until the light hit your face / Then I witnessed the most beautiful dawn beaming from your grace
We glide through a galaxy looking for cookies / Will we ever find any to go with our milky way
With every journey there is a beginning / What's our destination when the orbit is always spinning
Light years away and we just found out / Another stellar occurrence, what's it all about?
At The Speed of Love
Faith In Time
Can't Stop Now
Tripping With You
Small steps now to larger ones later parallel roads leading us somewhere
Tender words have tender meaning tender eyes and tender feelings
Get ready for the lift off / Together we can share this high
The hurt's all gone let's ready to move forward/ The horizon's clear let's go for that first step
Get ready for the lift off/ Together we can share this high
Something's telling me that, we're both gonna see the light
Don't hold back, gotta tell me what you want / Honesty will bring us together
The taste of your lips is not like any other / This journey's too good to settle for less
I stick around, with much anticipation/ You make it hard, with the things you say
The warmth of your breath when you whisper in my ear/The freedom to soar with nothing to fear
Gently we drift, aloft on this cloud
My spirit rises to find its star
I sense something miraculous is about to happen
Come dream with me
The images of you bring only desire
The reflection I see is of someone else
Horizon in the distance still glowing with the sun
Like a mustache on a field of green faces
Going too fast around unbanked corners
This image of yourself that you created. No one can see, cause of the way you state it
You swept me off my feet, by keeping me at bay. Now I'm back on the ground, it's a brand new day!
Black and blue, your pupil and iris. The color of bruises, now I cry in silence.
You pushed and shoved, your way into my life. Now it's my turn, to cut like a scythe.
Time to put your ego aside
Don't let the reality confuse you
Your blue eyes have turned to red
You should understand by now
Even though you think it should be
It never was
A lonely hand is sad until another one comes along
I walked along this path and I, thought I was alone
This road we travel doesn't have to be lonely. All of us are here, you're not the only.
Come walk with me and watch the night turn into day
