Someday Soon
Desperation fuels chaos in the streets
While false idols continue to make war
Honest poets keep writing the receipts
That’s right we’ve been keeping score
Someday soon judgment catches us all
Pride hits hardest when forced to crawl
Evil people are cowards speaking in lies
Hiding behind wealth enslaved by greed
There is no light inside such barren eyes
Gotta block the signal then cut the feed
Someday soon love will restore our grace
Build us a world far away from this place

Fight to live
Eighteen dollars to her name
Can’t survive, it’s all the same
In need of food for her kids
Drugs & booze the way she lives
No ambition to get a job
Unless it’s slobbing on someone’s knob
How much lower can you go
You’ll be remembered as a filthy ho
You must fight to live
You must fight to live
You must fight to live
Inside your fucked up selfish mind
Sleazy strip malls is where you hang
Beware the rats with long sharp fangs
Behind the store to get your fix
Fever ignored, getting real sick

Deep Cuts
.
.
.
I come from a time when we delved deep
Into a band’s L.P., Cassette, or C.D.
There was a ritual to opening a package
Then listening to an album in its entirety
The radio friendly hits were like appetizers
Songs which raised interest and curiosity
But an album gave a complete perspective
Discovering a recording artists’ virtuosity
In these deep cuts you’d uncover their talent
Compositions that displayed magical ingenuity
Hard work and passion poured onto projects
Into sessions where they showed...

Light
In the night I tried to find you
In my heart I tried to guide you
But your pain won't let me near
Won't let me dry those precious tears
Went through the rain and through the dark
try to find your precious heart
tried to break those chains that bind you
grab my hand so I can guide you
All that pain and open wounds
feel insane, no one coming soon
I am the one who tried to find you
follow my light I'm here to guide you
With every tear you cried and dried
You died a little every time
no one ever tried...
In my heart I tried to guide you
But your pain won't let me near
Won't let me dry those precious tears
Went through the rain and through the dark
try to find your precious heart
tried to break those chains that bind you
grab my hand so I can guide you
All that pain and open wounds
feel insane, no one coming soon
I am the one who tried to find you
follow my light I'm here to guide you
With every tear you cried and dried
You died a little every time
no one ever tried...

POETRY ON MY MIND
THINKING
I got up this morning
With poetry on my mind,
So I sat right down
And wrote the first line.
I am not writing poetry
To see a book on a shelf;
I write for one reason
And that's to please myself.
I got up this morning
To face another day;
The words of my poetry
Started me on the right way.
I do not expect or need
The applause of men;
I have unlimited words
That are my best friends.
"What are you thinking?"
I am asked many times,
My answer to simple:
"I have...

To face another day;

Started me on the right way.

I have unlimited words

In the Dead of the Night
Intro:
In the dead of night, the cradle rocks.
Echoes in the shadows, ticking clocks.
Tiny hands reach out for air.
Chaos reigns, curly hair everywhere.
Rhyme 1:
Under the moonlight, whispers grow,
silent secrets only shadows know.
From the cradle to the rocking chair,
curly hair is everywhere.
Chorus:
Rock the cradle, feel the storm,
in the darkness love takes form.
Curly hair, wild and free,
a symbol of our destiny.
Rhyme 2:
Midnight cries break the silence....
In the dead of night, the cradle rocks.
Echoes in the shadows, ticking clocks.
Tiny hands reach out for air.
Chaos reigns, curly hair everywhere.
Rhyme 1:
Under the moonlight, whispers grow,
silent secrets only shadows know.
From the cradle to the rocking chair,
curly hair is everywhere.
Chorus:
Rock the cradle, feel the storm,
in the darkness love takes form.
Curly hair, wild and free,
a symbol of our destiny.
Rhyme 2:
Midnight cries break the silence....

Ballad of the Fire Swamp
O give me a home where nobody will roam
Where the Count and his soldiers won’t stray
Where a sudden Flame Spurt leaves them crispy and hurt
And the skies smell of campfire all day
Home, home in the swamp
Where the Lightning Sands grip at their knees
Where the R.O.U.S. is our welcome house guest
And the skies smell of campfire all day
O give me a house with a giant guard mouse
Where the Terrors keep burglars at bay
Where seldom is heard an annoying loud bird
And the skies smell of campfire all day
Home, home in the...
Where the Count and his soldiers won’t stray
Where a sudden Flame Spurt leaves them crispy and hurt
And the skies smell of campfire all day
Home, home in the swamp
Where the Lightning Sands grip at their knees
Where the R.O.U.S. is our welcome house guest
And the skies smell of campfire all day
O give me a house with a giant guard mouse
Where the Terrors keep burglars at bay
Where seldom is heard an annoying loud bird
And the skies smell of campfire all day
Home, home in the...
