Prophetic Soul
Play the game, feel your pain
Hide your weakness, stand up strong
Transparent doors give you away-
Nothing worthless ever leaves
Happiness is hidden well
Copyright © November, 1996 Katherine Springle
Wake me with kisses, I'll greet you with love
Steal me from dreamland, my unhappy host
Release me from all that is evil and pain
So give me your heart to start off my day

Grasping at seemingly random straws
Uncertainty lies on every road
I'll chase my dreams but if I fail
Through all the storms life throws at me

I'll call your bluff, it's not enough
Keep it in, push me out
Curb your fears, silent shout.
Do it right, you know it's wrong
Flash that smile, easy grin
Yet you lose the more you win.
The less you speak, the more you say.
Ask me why, how I return
To feel the fire, risk the burn.
Nothing mournful ever grieves
Nothing bright will ever shine
No one sober walks the line
A trodden path leads to your hell.
Find freedom from fateful lies
Speak the truth that's in your eyes.
Wake Me With Kisses
Nuzzle my neck, And I'll try not to shove.
Smile, show the mischief behind those blue eyes
The pout in your lips will be my demise.
Return me to life, help me shake off the ghost--
The daunting image of a dreadful dream
The sacred relief of an aborted scream.
Lend me your help to breathe freely again.
Wake me with kisses, a breath of fresh air
I'll savor the solace of your loving care.
Ask me to love you, and I shall obey.
Foundation
Wondering which path to take
Questioning which direction to go;
What decision to make-
Resolution seems unclear
I'll brace my shoulders to the wind
Collect my courage, stifle my fear
I'll dream again another day
I'll always find the will to try
And learn to live along the way
I will stand strong and true
Body, Mind, Heart and Soul-
The strengths I learned from you.
