Billionaire's Paradise,,,
After The Holocaust,,,
When All The People Are Gone,,,
The Billionaire's Emerge From,,,
Their Hidden Bunkers At Dawn,,,
And They Crawl Over The Corpses,,,
To Survey All That Remains,,,
As They Go Search For Food,,,
Now In Hunger,,,Cry In Pain,,,
They Made All Their Gold,,,
From The Blood Of The Poor,,,
And As They Lie Dying,,,
They Only Demanded More,,,
And When The People Had Died,,,
They All Ran Away To Hide,,,
In Their Underground Bunkers,,,
With Their Secret Food Supplies,,,
In Their Billionaire's Paradise,,,

When I Had You,,,
Once Upon A Time,,,
When The Air Was Clean,,,
And The Skies Were Blue,,,
And Life Was Good,,,
When I Had You,,,
And Even Though,,,
We Never Met,,,
You Were More Than Just,,,
Pretty Words On A Page,,,
And Over The Years,,,
You So Carefully,,,
Placed My Heart,,,
Inside A Cage,,,
And Every Day,,,
Was As Brand New,,,
Once Upon A Time,,,
When I Had You,,,
When The Air Was Clean,,,
And The Skies Were Blue,,,
And Life Was Good,,,
When I Had You,,,
And Even Though,,,
We Never Met,,,

Waiting In Line,,,
You Say You Hate,,,
Waiting In Line,,,
And Yet We Do It Every Day,,,
We Spend All Our Time,,,
Waiting In Line,,,
Waiting On Death,,,
To Come Our Way,,,
We Wait For Our Food,,,
We Wait On A Show,,,
We Wait On Death,,,
But We're To Stupid To Know,,,
That We Have No Choice,,,
But To Stand In Line,,,
And Here We Will Stand,,,
Until The End Of Time,,,
We Wait On Love,,,
To Come Our Way,,,
We Wait On Toys,,,
So We Can Play,,,
We Wait And Wait,,,
It's Just Insane,,,
We Wait On Buses,,,
Trains And...
Waiting In Line,,,
And Yet We Do It Every Day,,,
We Spend All Our Time,,,

Into Your Life To Stay,,,
Pray Tell,,,Pretty Woman,,,
Where Are You Going,,,
Out In These Woods,,,
On This Beautiful Spring Morning,,,
So For A While,,,I Followed You,,,
Being As Quiet As I Could,,,
To See The Path You Take,,,
Through These Springtime Woods,,,
You Noticed Me Following You,,,
Yet,,,You Were Not Afraid,,,
And After A While,,,
You Stopped And Called My Name,,,
And Then You Smiled At Me,,,
As Out From The Shadows,,,I Came,,,
You Said,,,Walk Beside Me,,,
And Join Me On My Way,,,
And We Can Talk And Laugh,,,
On This Beautiful...
Where Are You Going,,,
Out In These Woods,,,

Damaged Goods,,,
They Say She Is Damaged Goods,,,
Like A Dead Tree,,,
Out There In The Woods,,,
And Even Though Damaged,,,
It Still Serves A Greater Good,,,
I Always Tell Her,,,
You Can't Dwell In The Past,,,
And You Just Have To Let Go,,,
But How Does That Work,,,
When That's All That She Knows,,,
She Is Not Damaged Goods,,,
As Far As I Can See,,,
She Is Just Loaded Down,,,
By Mistakes And Bad Memories,,,
And She Just Needs A Chance,,,
To Be All That She Can Be,,,
And She Is Not Damaged Goods,,,
To Me,,,
Like A Dead Tree,,,
Out There In The Woods,,,
And Even Though Damaged,,,
It Still Serves A Greater Good,,,
I Always Tell Her,,,
You Can't Dwell In The Past,,,
And You Just Have To Let Go,,,
But How Does That Work,,,
When That's All That She Knows,,,
She Is Not Damaged Goods,,,

This Broken Heart,,,
When I Look Up At The Stars,,,
Deep In The Night,,,
I Can Still Remember,,,
How We Held Each Other Tight,,,
And I Can Still Plainly See,,,
Your Beautiful Green Eyes,,,
Sparking In The Darkness,,,
On Those Endless Summer Nights,,,
And As We Watched The Stars,,,
We Both Pledged Forever,,,
I To You,,,And You To Me,,,
Up Until The Light Of Dawn,,,
Then I Turned Around,,,
And Called Your Name,,,
But Just Like The Wind,,,
You Were Gone,,,
It's Been So Long,,,
Since Last I Saw You,,,
And Once I Said,,,...
Deep In The Night,,,

My Portfolio,,,
I Really Love Your Assets,,,
I Love Your Bottom Line,,,
And When I Hear That Closing Bell,,,
I Know That Your All Mine,,,
I Wait Around After Closing Time,,,
When Everyone Is Gone,,,
Then I Open Up Your Vault,,,
And Adore Your Stocks And Bonds,,,
You Have Very Nice Interest Rates,,,
And I Can't Wait To Put My Money In,,,
And We Watch As My Portfolio Grows,,,
Among Your Silver And Gold Bullion,,,
I Like To Keep Abreast Of Things,,,
And Keep My Stocks In Line,,,
And When I Hear That Closing Bell,,,
I Know That Your All...
I Love Your Bottom Line,,,
And When I Hear That Closing Bell,,,
I Know That Your All Mine,,,

Daydreaming,,,
They Say That Daydreaming,,,
Is Just A Waste Of Time,,,
Time You Can Never Get Back,,,
Time Just Lost Along The Way,,,
That's What They Say,,,
But I Say,,,
If I Could Not Daydream Of You,,,
Then Time Would Be A Wasteland,,,
From Which There Is No Escape,,,
And Simply Daydreaming Of You,,,
Saves Me From That Place,,,
Is Just A Waste Of Time,,,
Time You Can Never Get Back,,,
Time Just Lost Along The Way,,,
That's What They Say,,,
But I Say,,,
If I Could Not Daydream Of You,,,
Then Time Would Be A Wasteland,,,
From Which There Is No Escape,,,
And Simply Daydreaming Of You,,,
Saves Me From That Place,,,

The Old Woman And The Shoe,,,
Beyond Fractured Fairy Tales#4
Once Upon A Time,,,
There Was An Old Woman,,,
Who Lived In A Shoe,,,
She Had So Many Children,,,
She Didn't Know What To Do,,,
She Fed Them All Soup,,,
Without Any Bread,,,
She Whipped All Their Asses,,,
And Sent Them To Bed,,,
And Then CPS Came,,,
And Took The Children Away,,,
And The City Condemned The Shoe,,,
On The Very Next Day,,,
Leaving The Old Woman Homeless,,,
With No Place To Stay,,,
So They Picked Up The Old Woman,,,
Because She Had No Home,,,
Because...

The Ghost Of Yesterday,,,
Way Out In The Woods,,,
Where Nobody Lives,,,
There Stands A Lonely House,,,
Beside A Stream And A Hill,,,
Abandoned For Years,,,
But Still Well Intact,,,
But No One Dares Venture,,,
To Go This Far back,,,
No Windows Are Broken,,,
And The Roof Doesn't Leak,,,
And Inside The Ghost,,,
Play Hide And Seek,,,
And On The Facade,,,
The Vines Have Grown,,,
For There Is No Caretaker,,,
No One Living,,,Is Home,,,
All Of The Furnishings,,,
Are All Still Inside,,,
Left Behind By Those,,,
Who Lived There,,,But Died,,,...

Beautiful Green Eyes,,,
To Look Into,,,
Your Beautiful Green Eyes,,,
If Upon,,,
A Sunny Summers Beach,,,
In The Ocean Breeze,,,
Or Outside,,,
In The Mist And Rain,,,
Of Some Northeastern Spring,,,
Or In The Fall,,,
When The Leaves Have All Fallen,,,
And The Summer Is Gone,,,
Just To Look,,,
Into Your Beautiful Eyes Of Green,,,
On The,,,
Coldest Of Winters Night,,,
To Look Into Those Eyes,,,
And Know,,,
That Everything Is Alright,,,
And It Matters Not,,,When,,,
I Look Into Your Eyes,,,So Green,,,
All That Matters,,,
Is That Your...

All That Remains,,,
Once Upon A Cold Winters Morning,,,
A Knocking Came Upon My Door,,,
And I Was Home,,,And So Alone,,,
As I Opened Up The Door,,,
There Was No One There,,,
So I Stepped Out On The Porch,,,
And Into The Distance,,,So Cautiously Stared,,,
And There I Stood,,,And So Alone,,,
And When I Turned Around,,,
To Go Back Inside,,
My House Had Vanished,,,
And My Home Was Gone,,,
I Wandered Around The Yard,,,
Where My House Once Stood,,,
The Grass And Vines Had Taken Over,,,
From The Encroaching Woods,,,
I Wondered Where...
A Knocking Came Upon My Door,,,
