Unwritten

I am unwritten,
Can't read my mind,
I'm undefined.
I'm just beginning,
The pen's in my hand,
Ending unplanned.

I break tradition,
Sometimes my tries,
Are outside the lines.
We've been conditioned,
To not make mistakes,
But I can't live that way.

Staring at the blank page before you,
Open up the dirty window...
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find.
Reaching for something in the distance,
So close you can almost taste it...
Release your inhibitions,
Feel the rain on your skin.

No one else can feel it for you,
Only you can let it in.
No one else, no one else,
Can speak the words on your lips.
Drench yourself in words unspoken,
Live your life with arms wide open.
Today is where your book begins,
The rest is still unwritten.

Straight Up

Lost in a dream
Don't know which way to go
If you are all that you seem
Then baby I'm movin' way too slow

Time's standing still
Waiting for some small clue
I keep getting chills
When I think your love is true

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
Are you more than hot for me
Or am I a page in your history-book

I don't mean to make demands
But the word and the deed go hand in hand
How about some information--please

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever?
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together
Are you just having fun?
