waking up
waking up
your arm is numb
sleeping on one side
all night
your aching all over
depending on how
you sleep
waking up with
scratching your eyes
for such a long time
and not being able
to see for a second
a filmy residue in your mouth
that you cant
even take
waking up
the
worst
nightmare
your arm is numb
sleeping on one side
all night
your aching all over
depending on how
you sleep
waking up with
scratching your eyes
for such a long time
and not being able
to see for a second
a filmy residue in your mouth
that you cant
even take
waking up

went from solid to ashes
im here collecting dust
just like when lightning crashes
i thought i knew trust
i would of never thought
that you would fad away
another prime example
of the shotgun that blew me away
NOTE: this song was never finished
and probably never will be
i was just sitting at a coffee
shop and put the pen to pad

ranting the dark
i believe i was sitting in back of the class,
i always do i usually
just end up there
english class
we were discussing poetry
and for once it caught
my attention
the teacher was reading some
of the poetry from last years
students
some about love
some about war
some about anti war
we laughed
some people cried
and i dont know why
then the teacher pulled
up a folder and says "i saved this
last one here because after this
folder was turned in
i had to report him"

every word
took me by surprise
was behind your eyes
we were both as one
but all that is done
i drink the night away
while you open your legs
all you do is moan
even on your phone
my mouth is not censored
i mean every fucking word
running in my head
you've been in every bed
my mouth is not censored
i mean every fucking word
at first you were a tease
now your on your knees
you love to be there
with your body bare
you'd do it for free
you dont need the money
all you do is moan
even on your phone

chinaski
it was too late
for me
mr. chinaski
i would of love to preach
the refusal to work
and drink all day
into the night
smoked our organs dry
and talk about women
beautiful women
oh mr chinaski
it was too late for me
i discovered you
at a wrong time in my life
your adventures
surround shelves
all across the country
you are gone but your work
still lives on and still going
strong in my heart
i spread you around as
much as i can
you were a sick man
you fucked more women
than a...

big surprise! you made a sitcom
applause sign
about to go
ready to take your place
tuning in
a routine
it's also everybody's phase
no cue cards
or director
your staging everything
you scream out loud
don't board it up
you do it with no fee
the same show
in the middle
no channel with my two cents
throw a tantrum
about yourself
thats quite a performance
you give it all
your never done
never say thats enough
black and blue eyes
a broken heart
you and i know it's all makeup
your on your knees
hands over your face

a typical night at the apartment
we lived on the third floor,
you can hear the neighbors conversation
cause the walls were
so thin..
we had about 3 jars of
grass, he got it from his parents,
a few bottles of vodka, 24 case of beer
a bottle of whiskey, a bag of
salvia, and about two empty
stomachs..
i liked were this was going, but i decided
to not drink this night
i just simply didn't want to but what
got my attention was the salvia,
didn't do that either, he told me
everything went slanted,
vision, emotion, body, etc.....

ive never heard thursday on the radio
an uncomfortable leather couch
it was a hot day
and it made it worse
im pouring my heart
out
like a spill over the earth
im hearing him say,
mmhmm mmhmm....
shit like that,
he even called my by someone
else's name
fucking rude!
in the end he tells me
"you'll be fine"
i make my way out the door
and go to my car,
as i turned the key, i left my
radio on, as soon as i heard
the music. i felt better
and it was cheaper....

philosophical party
the stench of alcohol
lingered all night long
everybody's fucking loud
its didnt last very long
due to the cops pounding at the door
someone complained
and im glad they did, it
got too crazy
so the room emptied out
but after,
we had more guests about
an hour later
close friends of my room mates
a few guys who had already been drinking
before hand
never judge a book by its cover...
they weren't loud
they weren't crazy,
they were all talking about school
and there majors
as we sit in the balcony
and have a few...

heroes call in sick too
now your stress is
your companion
explosions in the sky
and you dont care, it doesnt phase
you
at first, you wanted
someone to reach out
to you, anyone
from your best friends
family, or that one person who
hangs out in front of the
liquor store all day as you go
in and give a
little nod for a hello
therapy is too expensive
so you dont bother
and vigilantes are once
every blue moon
no signals in the air
as you look up and stare
but you give yourself a little grin
because its not gonna happen
and if it...
