Enemy in the Mirror
The thing about love is it's beautifully flawed
You can't turn it off, it will not be ignored
Sometimes it's a confusing and bloody mess
Constantly evolving, putting you to the test
I'm not an ugly person, I have done some ugly things
Try to see me standing before you and not my sins
Self loathing and desperation, my new reality
Both paying the price for my lesson in morality
Hindsight is torture, important and necessary pain
I swear to you all I won't be back here again
Hard to spot a mistake until it is done
The battle for...
You can't turn it off, it will not be ignored

Self loathing and desperation, my new reality
Both paying the price for my lesson in morality

Hard to spot a mistake until it is done

Bully Boss
Feels like a wide open space, the other side of this bed
Can't stand this reality so I choose my ego instead
Arrive at work and enter with a strong proud stride
Don't let them see I am scared and lonely inside
Here everything feels right, they are all under me
Makes me feel I could rule the world eventually
I have already picked out my victims, my stepping stone
My footprint on their head helps me reach my throne
A person of importance inside the walls of this place
My failures are many but at least I won this race
Personal life...

A True And Tragic Story
When you came into my life I was lonely and confused
Trying to live life with a heart that's been abused
You were my everything for over six years
Taught me to listen to the sound of my tears
We don't want to hide so we told the truth to our kin
My family opened their arms and invited you in
Thrown out the door as your parents washed their hands
Your brothers and sisters they did not understand
They broke your heart, denying their own blood
Your tears ran for days, your own personal flood
Born this way...

Sacrifice Our Love
We ran into each other like it was home
The most intense connection I have ever known
Although I feared it would surely be broken
Surrendered my heart and left my door wide open
Helpless and desperate I could do nothing but wait
For you to decide not to ignore fate
You steer toward the road of least resistance
Constantly fighting your desire's persistence
Your eyes beg me to release you for a normal life
Sacrifice our love, let you be a mother and wife
Now you have your family and your white picket fence
You...

One Year From Today
Last night I had a very real dream
An enchanting angel came to me
She said you will be in the world for one more year
All 365 days should be lived without fear
I will return for you one year from today
As I started to wake she slipped away
Now that I know when to expect the reaper
I embrace the pool of life and dive much deeper
I will keep the dream a secret, they won't understand
Why I was shown what death has planned
Wasted existence but now this is my chance
To choose life, to love, to laugh and to dance
Set free...

One Perfect Day
Running for the bus as it's driving away
You stopped the driver, began my perfect day
Floored by a strangers face and inviting smile
I came undone in less than a mile
Our conversation flowed with beautiful ease
My army defeated and down on their knees
As we approach the station there is fear in my heart
The end of the road is here, the moment we part
We both step off the bus in perfect time
I attempt to disguise my unraveling mind
Every fibre of my being wants to ask you to stay
I save my...

Married Life ( Tommy cheats on his wife)
Tried my luck with the wife again last night
Begged and pleaded but no delight
How the hell did she become so frigid
Constantly leaving me painfully rigid
How can she be so cruel and mean
A selfish bitch, a cold ice queen
She takes all my money and pays her bills
Too bloody lazy to provide me some thrills
So sick and tired of having to fake it
Don't be scared love you won't break it
Excuse me now as I don't mean to be crude
These days my balls are as blue as my mood
A sexy...

Dying Wish
Family dinner night and everyone is here
Reach for my wife’s hand, she fights back a tear
Voice is shaky as I ask all hear what I say
I got some very bad news from the doctor today
Here is what I want and here’s what I don’t
Some of you may agree, some of you won’t
These are my wishes, the last of my rights
My dying days and my final nights
No fancy box for this mortal house to Lay
Or a man of god with something to say
No church floor to soak up the tears
Turn my body to ash, burn all the years
There is no place for me in a row of...

Stand In Your Truth
All that you consume to sedate your pain
You deny ownership and focus on blame
Your disappointment you feel is an injustice to you
Does that mean your joy is unjustified too?
Stand in your truth and deny the pain power
Don't let your sorrow grow with each passing hour
Your pain belongs to you, own it alone
You can't pass it on, it will follow you home
If you continue to scream about who is at fault
Your mind will remain locked in a vault
If from all of your pain you truly wish to be free
Take a look in the mirror and choose what to see...

Lust
Nervous as I watch you, I am so drunk on this lust
My heart remains faithful but my hands I don't trust
Please understand that I love my wife
No doubt in my mind that I will do for life
Our marriage is strong but as the days go by
I helplessly watch the passion wither and die
Aching for you but I know I can't touch
The shape of your body makes me want you so much
I dream of holding you in a sexy embrace
Can't let my marriage end in disgrace
If you could hear the words of your thighs
They would tell you they can feel my eyes ...
My heart remains faithful but my hands I don't trust
Please understand that I love my wife
No doubt in my mind that I will do for life
Our marriage is strong but as the days go by
I helplessly watch the passion wither and die
Aching for you but I know I can't touch
The shape of your body makes me want you so much
I dream of holding you in a sexy embrace
Can't let my marriage end in disgrace
If you could hear the words of your thighs
They would tell you they can feel my eyes ...

Hypocrisy
Sick of waiting for the man
To tell us we can
Who the fuck are you
To tell us what we can do?
So many named man and wife
Only half last for life
You can marry in Vegas
You tell us freedom's too dangerous
Fucking hypocritical bigot
It's time to get with it
Nobody is hurting you
We just want our rights too.
To tell us we can
Who the fuck are you
To tell us what we can do?
So many named man and wife
Only half last for life

You tell us freedom's too dangerous
Fucking hypocritical bigot

Nobody is hurting you

Let Us Begin
Fall down seven times, get up eight
This time I swear I won't make a mistake
Brace myself for a bumpy ride
Prepare to open the doors that lead inside
Issues knock at the door then come rushing in
They prod and they poke and say "let us begin"
I'm a little girl now, only eight years old
Still don't understand why I never told
Fell in love with a girl in my sixteenth year
Wrote it all in my journal every hope, every fear
I came home from school on a normal day
My mother sat at the table reading away
