She Can’t Wait
Every movement just an involuntary reflex
Every response an emotion
It’s literally crazy
But she can’t wait for what comes next
Each heart beat its own effect
Every secret she’s never spoken
A rumor amongst the angels
But too soon they forget she’s broken
But she can’t wait for what comes next
Every thought gives her regards to regret
Every dream in her head
In a constant state of motion
Its literally insane
Every symbol of love a suicidal crucifix
Every desire another intoxicating potion ...
Every response an emotion
It’s literally crazy
But she can’t wait for what comes next
Each heart beat its own effect
Every secret she’s never spoken
A rumor amongst the angels
But too soon they forget she’s broken
But she can’t wait for what comes next
Every thought gives her regards to regret
Every dream in her head
In a constant state of motion
Its literally insane
Every symbol of love a suicidal crucifix
Every desire another intoxicating potion ...

Crazy
Watch my eyes strain
While my head frees itself of pain
So what’s really going on
Deep inside my brain
I’m cuckoo for coco-puffs
Yes, Looney-Tunes once again
I’m crazy
A damn psychopath 🤪
But hey! I can’t actually say that I hate it
Because I can definitely hit outta the park
I’ll even pitch it
Theres no pop-up-flies here
It’s a home-run-derby each and very time
Yeah baby, I ain’t no damn walker
Let’s just say I’ve gone completely mad
A schizophrenic talker
Flipped my lid and off my rocker
Into the...

Star-date 1984
Midnight out on the dance floor
A flash from my past
I could see her over there looking apprehensive
Like she wasn’t interested in squeezing my ass
But holus-bolus she was pump’n her brakes
While her foot rested heavily on the gas
Just waiting for the race to begin
The very moment I dropped my pants
But I wasted no time with the proverbial
“Hello beautiful, my name is Jonny”
My sword just inching its way out of its sheath
With lustful eyes for her autonomy
But we only...

Civil Unrest
Goerge Floyd was murdered by a sub human piece of crap
And I don’t care about Floyds past raps
He was a real human being
And that it that
But let me contest
You stop using his death to make others your victim
It’s obscene
You’ve been seen fleeing the scene of a civil unrest
Hoping the next ATM is full of cash
Guess they haven’t caught you yet
But looters say stealing is grieving
Just with a smile on their face
Tell me it isn’t true
But seeing is believing
As the Jordan’s were being laced
I guess if you play...

Calamity Jane
I swear everyday it’s a brand new Calamity
Coke and Daniels
Just a tease on the brain to ease your pain of insanity
And if I were to say Jane
You’re the first one that I’d blame
Yes you, for all those empty bottles of Jack and Samuels
The only things of value
When the house went up in flames
You’re such a fool Calamity
Lame your claim, I can’t get far enough away
A dangerous dame with lips made of profanity
There is no safe space
But in my heart I understand your drunken rage
Your lack of gravity
That false belief...

Heartache
Falling in love was the last thing on my mind
But finding you
A true love I thought I’d never find
But something about you wasn’t right
Even if it’s been you and me heartache
Together every night
All alone just trying to decide
Should we go it alone or by each other’s side
Are we even each other’s type
I swear something isn’t right
Cuz it’s always been you and me heartache
But now all we do is fight
Up all night
Ten million questions half past midnight
Still no end in sight
No reply, so I know something...
But finding you
A true love I thought I’d never find
But something about you wasn’t right
Even if it’s been you and me heartache
Together every night

Should we go it alone or by each other’s side
Are we even each other’s type
I swear something isn’t right
Cuz it’s always been you and me heartache
But now all we do is fight
Up all night
Ten million questions half past midnight
Still no end in sight

I’m No Circus Clown
I’m not a slave, you’re not my master
I can’t be tamed, I can’t be captured
I know the difference, between real and phony
Why I don’t play those silly love games
Unless it’s matrimony
I can’t be bought, I can’t be sold
For no amount of money
So put away your china
Sliver spoons, and golden platter
Cuz you already know I ain’t no dummy
If you think my hearts in tatters
Then you don’t know me
Warning signs they always matter
I’m a slugger standing in his own field of dreams
A strikeout artist, a home run...
I can’t be tamed, I can’t be captured
I know the difference, between real and phony
Why I don’t play those silly love games
Unless it’s matrimony
I can’t be bought, I can’t be sold
For no amount of money
So put away your china
Sliver spoons, and golden platter
Cuz you already know I ain’t no dummy
If you think my hearts in tatters
Then you don’t know me
Warning signs they always matter
I’m a slugger standing in his own field of dreams
A strikeout artist, a home run...

Love Roulette
Love
Not the game of roulette I wanted to play
But I knew the risks
And the more I learned of love
The harder it became
And every time I ignored love
The more it wanted to make me it’s slave
It’s too hard to explain
But the more I tried not to pursue it
The crazier it became
It was incredibly hard for me to stay
Enduring that red hot scorching
And all those lies it would say
Just a tortuous scalding to have me tamed
When all I wanted to do is find a way to escape
But love keep me in its pits of hell
And...

Love Fades
Once I was young, wild and naive
Remembering those midsummer eves
Just how easily
My love was made to pour
Jumped through every hoop
Perfected every trick in the book
Placed my skills in groups
Just to go out and explore
First love wore me like a suit
Fashionably dressed in all its absolute
And there was nothing in this world but
you
At it's source
But over time, suspicions grew
Looming fears turned up clues
Altered years of slow abuse ...
Remembering those midsummer eves

And there was nothing in this world but

Looming fears turned up clues

No Longer a Person of Particular Intrest
Oh I'm filthy in my own misery
Wading through the waves of a very shallow grave
Defying feats of my own death
A mortals dream
Or just a fantasy
I don't know, but nevertheless
I'm trying to find my place
In a world lacking flavor in which I can taste
So no one can save me from me
Not in a single breath
So don't waste your time
Or give me your sympathy
I'm already knee deep drowning in my own pity
So hush, and save your fraudulent tears for someone else
I know they're more hollow, then they are empty
So don't play...
Wading through the waves of a very shallow grave
Defying feats of my own death
A mortals dream
Or just a fantasy
I don't know, but nevertheless
I'm trying to find my place

So no one can save me from me
Not in a single breath
So don't waste your time
Or give me your sympathy
I'm already knee deep drowning in my own pity
So hush, and save your fraudulent tears for someone else
I know they're more hollow, then they are empty
So don't play...

Your John Doe
Doesn't matter, fantasy or reality
This is how the story goes
First time I saw you with your heart fully exposed
I gazed into your eyes
And mine began to propose
That was the first time I knew
You should have been mine a very long time ago
So I laid out my clues
Hoping you'd play your role as Sherlock Holmes
That's when I came to realize
There was something you had already known
Something's are never meant to be
Unrevealed and never to be shown
Because destiny has it's way of being ambiguous
So interpretations are still...
