What's In A Name (Keith-Scottish for Forest)

A raindrop becomes a stream
A soft whisper becomes a scream
And let that sound resound my name
And toss my soul upon the flame
And in innocence flee to the trees
And through the leaves do you tease
And caress the wind with a soft voice
Giving me no freewill nor choice
But to allow my ears to hear in disdain
Your invisible lips calling my name

Koopapu Sia (Broken Feathers)

Light and lofty
Singing so softly
But only the saddest song

Desperate and lonely
And wishing only
To fix what he feels is wrong

Attempting to fly
Without knowing why
On tattered and broken feathers

And still he tries
To reach to the skies
The wounds never getting better

In quiet surrender
In the middle of winter
His wings were lovingly bound

Through expert care
By one so fare
A hope and reason was found

Now the beating of a drum
As he starts to run
And spreads his wings wide

He will remember the one
Who lead him to the Sun
And remain by her side
