Appreciation
Just because I care
doesn’t mean I’ll always be there when your low
say goodbye and watch you go
Just because I care
Doesn’t mean you can count on me
Or be your eyes when you cannot see
Just because I care
I cannot always give you a hug
and fill you with love
Just because I care
Doesn’t mean we cannot still make memories
and dream of our fantasies
Just because I care
Please be fair
and stay here
doesn’t mean I’ll always be there when your low
say goodbye and watch you go
Just because I care
Doesn’t mean you can count on me
Or be your eyes when you cannot see
Just because I care
I cannot always give you a hug
and fill you with love
Just because I care
Doesn’t mean we cannot still make memories
and dream of our fantasies
Just because I care
Please be fair
and stay here

I Don't Understand
I don’t understand
why people live
why people die
why people cry
I don’t understand
why we are different
why can’t we be the same
why do we play this game
But most of all
why do people hate
why do people fight
why do people love
What I do understand though is
why we fix problems
why we choose what we want
why we get stuck or move on
why we choose how to live
why people live
why people die
why people cry
I don’t understand
why we are different
why can’t we be the same
why do we play this game
But most of all
why do people hate
why do people fight
why do people love
What I do understand though is
why we fix problems
why we choose what we want
why we get stuck or move on
why we choose how to live

Good and Evil
Good and Evil
What is good?
Is it something that must be understood,
When you give,
Does it make it better to live?
Do you have to be medieval,
To be evil?
Does it make you feel glad,
To see someone who is sad?
Would you watch and stare,
or have a care?
Which would you do,
Which would you choose?

Time Flies Pt.1
I used to be a little boy
Playing in the dirt
With sticks and rocks
When I was baby
I was used to sneak out of my crib
Like someone who wanted to get away
I look back on my years
and look back at how I used to live
Never had much but always got what I could get of it
I was always stuck in my state of mind
Hardly said a word I guess I just thought to much
Time flies when your always looking forward
You never knew how much was there
Until you look back at what you missed
Things weren't always great
The bad came whenever...

I was always stuck in my state of mind

Time flies when your always looking forward

The Calling
The moon is rising
The sun is shining
The clouds are parting
The rain is falling
The earth is sinking
The drunks are drinking
The stoners are toking
The stressful are smoking
The sick are aching
The angry are fighting
The stalkers are watching
The babies are crawling
The thugs are killing
The ghost are haunting
The devil is coming
The angels are ainging
God is calling
People are failing
Vehicles are crashing
Loser are winning
Winners are losing
Trees are falling
Wind is breaking...
The sun is shining
The clouds are parting

The babies are crawling
The thugs are killing

Whispers in The Wind
Sit here along this flooded river
I sit here thinking about how everything was once good
How everything was so righteous
Now since you been away
There nothing much to say
Every color has faded away
Nothing is the same without you here
In this river are nothing but tears
No time for talk
There is just whispers in the wind
A cold air blows in my face
As I sleep in the night
Your steps I tried to retrace
But you were nowhere in sight
I saw a little girl with your smile
just the other day
I set by her and played for...

Calm
Serene, tranquil,relaxed, collected
Calm as a tree, is how I like to be.

Help Me
Help me...please
I need some sympathy,
To get through another day,
Help me...please
Tired of this agony,
It won't go away,
Please won't you help me?
I need some confidence
Because I am always down in the dumps
I need some inspiration
So I don't keep repeating everything
I need some hope
Because I feel like I am always failing
I need some faith
Cause I believe I have lost my own.
Help me,
I am crying
Help me,
I am ANGRY!
Help me,
I am falling
Help me,
I am lost
Please won't you help me?
I need some sympathy,
To get through another day,
Help me...please

It won't go away,
Please won't you help me?

Help me,
I am crying
Help me,
I am ANGRY!
Help me,
I am falling
Help me,
I am lost
Please won't you help me?

Haunted
I feel the echo in my brain,
See the light shine away,
Haunted by the things I did,
Sometimes I can barely breathe.
I feel the bad go in my veins,
I see the good come out in my head,
Haunted by this pain,
Sometimes I just want it to go away.
This life is not for me,
Cannot take this for long,
No escape for this trouble,
All I can do is break the bubble.
In and out it goes,
Don't think I had enough,
I just want some more,
I need some to score.
I just want another hit,
Just one more shot,
To ease my...

Sorrow
May I borrow your heart?
Because mine has faded to ash,
and is no longer with me,
Hopelessness is all that I have,
Been caved in for to long now,
By this darkness...
And I just want to find away out.
I just want this sorrow to fade away,
My confidence is so shallow,
So may borrow your kind heart,
Before I drift away.
My sense is becoming numb,
Can't remember any of the good things,
I have done because they have been gone for so long,
I just want to live again, I feel like I am not alive.
I just want this sorrow to fade...
Because mine has faded to ash,
and is no longer with me,
Hopelessness is all that I have,
Been caved in for to long now,
By this darkness...
And I just want to find away out.
I just want this sorrow to fade away,
My confidence is so shallow,
So may borrow your kind heart,
Before I drift away.
My sense is becoming numb,
Can't remember any of the good things,
I have done because they have been gone for so long,
I just want to live again, I feel like I am not alive.
I just want this sorrow to fade...
