when it rains
The soft grey sky
Drifts to the ground
Brown rivulets
Trickle away
Trickle away
Washing sadness down
Weather vanes
Weep and turn
Weep and turn
Forgetting in the damp and grey
That by and by
The sun will shine
Sun will shine
By and by
The sun will shine.

Breakaway
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I just stared out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)
Trying not to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I pray (I would pray)
I could breakaway
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

-1:05 AM
it was a sacrilege, the nighbors cried,
the way she
shattered every mullioned paneto let a firebrand in. they tried in vain
to understand how one
so carved from prideand glassed in dream could have so flung aside
her graven days, or why she dared profane
the bread and wine of life
for one insanemoment with him. the scandal never died.
but no one guessed that loveliness would claim
her soul's cathedral burned by his desires,
or that he left her aureoled in flame...
and seeing nothing but her
blackened spires,the town condemned this girl who loved too well
and
found her heaven in the depths of hell.
