Always Known You
I have known you
a thousand years
I have called out for you
to hold me tight
I know you
as well as I know my most inner secrets
My desire for you is unending and habitual
Peace and tranquility surround me whenever you think of me
and I can feel it through the distance
These things are as real as it gets
Although we haven't met
a thousand years
I have called out for you
to hold me tight
I know you
as well as I know my most inner secrets
My desire for you is unending and habitual
Peace and tranquility surround me whenever you think of me
and I can feel it through the distance
These things are as real as it gets
Although we haven't met

The Politician
I'll vote for that
in return you need to support my project
What do think the public will think of this?
How do we make them think everything is okay?
This is what I did....
it’s for your benefit
So you think I have had sexual relations
with someone other than my spouse?
Deny Deny Deny!
Oh you have proof?
I admit it, I'm not gonna lie
I'm against term limits
the longer I'm around the more entrenched I am
and that means harder to vote out
I can smile at...

On Hate
It would seem that I am blind now
I cant see through the thick black mask
It's not the hatred that I'm worried about
it's my physical strength
It took me six blows
to crush your head
I cant see through the thick black mask
It's not the hatred that I'm worried about
it's my physical strength
It took me six blows
to crush your head

Hurry Back Away
Why are you walking away?
Is it something I said?
Fine! Whatever! I don't need you
Wait, come back I love you, I'm sorry....
Hold me close, I mean give me some space.... Jesus Christ why are you so clingy? can't you just be here for me? Stop following me everywhere, I have a life as well you know, you can't be with me all the time.
Let’s get married, or better yet just live together, we can get an apartment, a house would be better this way we aren't always on top of each other and you can do your own thing with your friends, and me with my friends. Let’s throw...

Destiny
Again last night you came to me
With tales of the end of your latest romance
Asking how you could possibly bear the pain
With your head on my shoulder
I dried your tears
While assuring you that tomorrow
Someone new would come along
When you were finally comforted
You kissed my cheek
And returned to your world
As I looked around my apartment
Now empty again
I thought of my walks in the park
Watching the couples
Of tables for one
And movies alone
And as I reached for a...

Empty Bottle
Sitting in darkness
the silence so complete
I can hear my thoughts whispering
I think of her
again....
This avalanche of despair
is crushing me
and I can't breathe as my soul floats around my lifeless body
I can't fight it anymore
I'm too weak
this time
around
the silence so complete
I can hear my thoughts whispering
I think of her
again....
This avalanche of despair
is crushing me
and I can't breathe as my soul floats around my lifeless body
I can't fight it anymore
I'm too weak
this time
around

The Music
The sound of solitude
a cacophonic symphony
of loneliness
heard only by my soul
alone
as I lay still
and listen
to my heartbeat
a cacophonic symphony
of loneliness
heard only by my soul
alone
as I lay still
and listen
to my heartbeat

A Sad Story
I dont care about the money,
I stole it anyway
but she left me the on the corner
cold and drunk at 3a.m.
I gave her 40 dollars
She said she was going to get us a
room with a TV
and some weed
she just had to talk to some guy first
and everything would be all set
she was gonna do me up real good
she was gonna treat me real nice
I mean, I aint stupid
I usually dont trust anybody but
her face was kind and she
smiled and held my hand
I gave her 40 dollars
and she left me there on...

Same as Yesterday
Each day Is the same for me, I wake and try to shake the dreams of you from my head.
Shards of blue - white intensity pierce my borrowed bloodshot eyes
A spectrum of thoughts flood my mind as I try and make any sense of this.
I always end the day the same
Feeling this was the plan the entire time..... It's a horrible feeling to realize that I am disposable.
Shards of blue - white intensity pierce my borrowed bloodshot eyes

Unspoken Love
Sometimes
I invent God in a vain attempt
to survive nights of ungodliness
when
beyond the far side of the moon
with no compass, I feel the dark
the way I do now
while you sit with him
without smiling and deep in thought
I watch him play the game, the mating ritual
kissing you for show and tell, another conquest
You will fuck him tonight although he will never see how beautiful you truly are
your soft neck, your piercing eyes that know what is really...

Remember
Remember that time
we raced through the cold December rain
to my apartment
and made love for hours on
rain soaked sheets?
Remember when you left after
I made breakfast of coffee, toast and bananas?
Remember how I walked you
to the bus stop and
laid my robe down across the
wet grass to save your shoes
like I was Sir Walter Raleigh?
Well you can keep that memory too...
They're all yours
I won't need them
we raced through the cold December rain
to my apartment
and made love for hours on

The Role of a Rose
I cut a rose from a bush
and brought it home to share its beauty
I peeled the stem back, placed it in water
and slowly the rose withered and died
It reminded me of our love
which was once alive and beautiful
vibrant and full of a promising future
Did I truly bring home beauty
when I cut that rose?
or did I leave an empty space
for everyone else to see?
What is the role of a rose?
So I say to lovers
don't cut your love from the world
and share only when at home ...
and brought it home to share its beauty
I peeled the stem back, placed it in water
and slowly the rose withered and died
It reminded me of our love
which was once alive and beautiful
vibrant and full of a promising future
Did I truly bring home beauty
when I cut that rose?
or did I leave an empty space
for everyone else to see?
What is the role of a rose?
So I say to lovers
don't cut your love from the world
and share only when at home ...
