Turning the Other Cheek
while you are plotting my demise
I am living life
while you are stuck in a loveless relationship
I couldn’t be happier with mine
and while you are sitting there getting mad
I am smiling with family and friends
sure, you have your club of misfits
gang of bullies attacking me
face it, sweety
I know you’re hurt
you seeing me with that girl I like better than you
I bet you imagine me making love to her too
the way you wish I would you
but not in this lifetime, hunnie
you did all you could
to set me in a bad...

Dangerous Mind
my words are weapons
(don’t let me speak my mind)
abuse is allowed only one sided
(don’t let me speak my mind)
power is used to eradicate
(don’t let me speak my mind)
weed out those that don’t fit
(don’t let me speak my mind)
I chose to stand up for myself
called immature for doing so
banned three times while I sat and waited
all I asked was to plead my case
was told I have no right, or voice
they thought I would slow down
(don’t let me speak my mind)
but they...

Playful Rhyme *Re*
go ahead and leave
go fall off a tree
all those silly words won’t affect me
been through hard times, and it’s plain to see
I’m a love maker, heart breaker
with fake people always trying to backstab me
so try, I’ll look up at the sky
say my goodbyes to the night
because I have seen the liiight!
I’ll take it and thrive, like all of the time
let the people believe that I’m out of my mind
can’t explain all these whats and whys
misrepresentation from stupid lies
It’s all fine, spit it...

Jack in a Box *Re*
I’ve seen things that should not be
and I’ve just lost my mind
I look into the glass
but it’s half empty
and you wonder why
life was never funny to me
because I’m not your ragged toy
why can’t I just let it go?
because you made it perfectly clear
that you’d rather see me in solitude
and waste away my years
I thought my dreams stretched like the ocean
but all this time I was trapped in a box
sometimes I hate to face reality
when all is dark I’m a freak
surrounded by walls that suffocate me
I was never perfect by no one’s...

This House Is Not A Home *Re*
Everyday it was the same old thing
Being held down with those chains
Somehow love turned me into your slave
What I did wasn’t ever good enough
How I lived was all so wrong
You kept on singing the same old song
But what did you care?
Did I not spoil you enough, princess?!
The screaming
The fighting
Wakes up the ghost inside these walls
Your sneaking
With excuses
Became oh so confusing
No!, this house is not a home
Feeling weak from the knife in my back
Spreading your legs to feed your...

Succubus *Re*
Let me be your last hope
I can sense your pain
Say sweet words to console you
Just to give you want again
Go ahead, feel the youth that eluded you for so long
A hole in the wall of your pathetic world
It’s so sad that I pity your aura
Take my hand I’ll show you life
Make you unbelievably happy then
Destroy it!
You may love me for the time
Touch your arm like such a flirt
Make you think I’m just a lush
Say your problems are only minimal
Bottoms up and drink it down...

To My Companion: *Re*
To my companion:
When I’m sinking in the world’s views,
can I believe you’ll rescue me?
Pull me out from the deep end before I drown,
and stand by my side as we fight for the right to be ourselves
If I was left with no more material things,
will you give me faith to rise above poverty?
Show me the way to live off nothing,
have me except the hardships of the situation,
and help me become a stronger man for it
To my companion:
Please let me know if I can hold on to you,
when my hands are bloody with doubt
Some days not...
