(Veronika Coassolo)
Inside your shelter
a secret promise welcomes me
white petals on which I can rest upon
when my wings get tired
you ask the stars
to stay up in the sky
so I can find you
late at night
and feel safe
cocooned in heaven
heaven
cocooned in heaven
heaven…
a smile
rising up from the heart
teasing me but
it feels warm inside
you ask me do you love me
with a laugh…
that sounds like heaven
I ask you please
take good care of my dreams
and I will stay
till the horizon meets an end
cocooned in heaven
heaven
cocooned in heaven
heaven…
– BELOVE –
(Veronika Coassolo- Mike Lipscombe)
Lies
woven through shallow skies
breathing visions of polyester lives
This suffocating tapestry
weighs
heavy
and blinds you
like the darkest cloud
You’re gasping
starved of air to breath
You’re caught before
your dreams
Be love
be love….
Be love
sacrifice and free yourself
Trust and know that fear
Won’t kill
A warning sign
Open your eyes
it will hurt like severed thread
but it will heal you back
into life
At last you’ll find
The best of you
Be love
Be love…..
Yes it might hurt like severed thread
but it will heal you back
into life…
– ECLIPSE OF THE GODS –
(Veronika Coassolo)
It took a lot of water to wash it all away
so I could see the damage,
mend it
hold me in the days when I’m afraid
it’s all been a big mistake
it took a lot of water to wash it all away
till I could see the damage
mend it
I feel no holding in the days when I’m afraid
it’s all been a big mistake
I put myself at risk
If not I don’t exist
soon I will be better
delicate at heart
but it’s a big heart
I put myself at risk
if not I don’t exist
Letting go of the Devil’s hand
finding balance on my feet
I’ve been a puppet to his moods
a quest for my sanity
through shadows of truth
Eclipse of the Gods
Eclipse of the Gods
I put myself at risk
If not I don’t exist
put myself at risk
If not I don’t exist
Sitting down to rest
I was running fast
you can call me later
watching from afar
it is a good start
nothing left to loose
but still enough to risk
nothing left to loose
but still enough to risk
I put myself at risk
If not I don’t exist
nothing left to loose
but still enough to risk
I put myself at risk
If not I don’t exist ……..
EVERY MOMENT
(Veronika Coassolo)
every moment for what it is
every moment for who I am
every moment right where I am
like the pink up in the sky
like the clear crisp breeze of air
I am here living this day
like there’s no need to be afraid
when the wind changes again
like a storm right through my soul
I am here living it all
like there’s no need to be afraid
the same place can be heaven or hell
the same day can never be replaced
but a better one can be made
and it’s ok to be afraid
and it’s ok to be afraid
and it’s ok to be afraid
and it’s ok to be afraid
and it’s ok to be afraid
and there’s no need to be afraid…
and there’s no need to be afraid…
– TIGHTROPE –
(Veronika Coassolo)
Tightrope walker through
a storm
I focus on the horizon
I can’t stop
And it’s a straight line
Till he end
With twist and turns
Hold my hand
When I need to catch my breath
And it’s a fine line
It’s a dance
It’s life or death
Tightrope walker through
a storm
I focus on the horizon
I can’t stop
No I can’t stop
When I need to catch my breath..
I’m still up
I’m still up
Your lips are moving
I don’t hear a sound
Tightrope walker through my thoughts
Tiptoeing through the motions of my mind
Hardly balancing this reasoning
Teetering
Brittle as I walk
But I’m still up
I’m still up
Tightrope walker through
a storm
Tightrope walker through
a storm…
But I’m still up
I’m still up….
Breathing slow
Breathing slow…
Tightrope walker
Through a storm
Tiptoeing through the motions
Of my head
But I’m Still up….
I’m still up……
