Where'd you go 17
Living life at the edge
Stuck between kid and adult
Abyss looming as we teeter on the ledge
With the world in our hands
And fire in our eyes
We didn't care about apathy
As long as we got high on Friday night
Our minds spun on donut rides
In a gravel parking lot
Copping beers from the store
Hoping we didn't get caught
Speeding fast with windows down
Wind blowing through our hair
Meeting up with friends in town
Without worry or care
Come back 17
I'm lost in this...
Living life at the edge
Stuck between kid and adult
Abyss looming as we teeter on the ledge
With the world in our hands
And fire in our eyes
We didn't care about apathy
As long as we got high on Friday night
Our minds spun on donut rides
In a gravel parking lot
Copping beers from the store
Hoping we didn't get caught
Speeding fast with windows down
Wind blowing through our hair
Meeting up with friends in town
Without worry or care
Come back 17
I'm lost in this...

Soak up life
Wade into the moonlit sea
Gaze into the infinite cosmos
Bathe in mysterious waters
Fade into the crevices of my dreams
Pace yourself as you walk the garden
Raise those fingers, touch the sky
Lay in sun bleached golden fields
Waste the day taking in life
Lazy days soaking up each other
Hazy memories from long ago
Save our minds betrayed by time
Decay and deceive, so slow
Wave goodbye to the past
Say what needs to be said
Future never comes
Present is here to stay
Gaze into the infinite cosmos
Bathe in mysterious waters
Fade into the crevices of my dreams
Pace yourself as you walk the garden
Raise those fingers, touch the sky
Lay in sun bleached golden fields
Waste the day taking in life
Lazy days soaking up each other
Hazy memories from long ago
Save our minds betrayed by time
Decay and deceive, so slow
Wave goodbye to the past
Say what needs to be said
Future never comes
Present is here to stay

remembering sunsets with you (lyrics)
Verse]
One taste of your lips
and I'm so gone (so gone)
ignoring all the warning signs
that tell me you'll break my heart
because when you touch me
I'm so gone (so gone)
wrapped up in the taste of you
[Chorus]
Tell me you love me
tell me I'm your everything
tell me this love will last forever
cause I don't want to be
anywhere else but here with you
lost in our ocean of heaven
(ocean of heaven)
[Verse 2]
You're all smiles and darkness
and the right amount of weird
it almost...
One taste of your lips

wrapped up in the taste of you
[Chorus]
Tell me you love me
tell me I'm your everything
tell me this love will last forever
cause I don't want to be
anywhere else but here with you
lost in our ocean of heaven
(ocean of heaven)
[Verse 2]
You're all smiles and darkness
and the right amount of weird

In Stone
In dreams of kisses and memories
now fossilized in stone and ivy
listening to the silence crying
a tear unseen drowning, longing
where secrets sleep fossilized
in stone
now fossilized in stone and ivy
listening to the silence crying
a tear unseen drowning, longing
where secrets sleep fossilized
in stone

Secrets - Creaking Floorboards
They say that you and I never went to Vince Macarthur's house, only Gordon did. But I did go, and so did you. I remember the three of us going and I remember the house well. The faded curtains. The musty smells. The shabby carpets. The elusive dancing shadows behind the loose banisters on the staircase. The torn settee by a pile of dusty newspapers. The purple vase in the corner with a fine wiry pattern etched in the glasswork. The metal guard around the gas fire. Model aeroplanes in the sitting room. Spitfires. Lancaster Bombers.
The whole place had a dark and gloomy...

Pair of socks
As I sit here in front of you tonight
I wonder why you left without saying goodbye
Wondering how fast
In a blink of an eye, you’re gone.
There are so many things
I want to share with you
So many words
Left unsaid.
Rest now my lovely sister
I wish in heaven
There’s plenty of chocolates,
And unlimited cakes.
Coz I know
How much
You are
Addicted to sweets.
Don’t worry about us
Don’t worry about Mama and Paps
Don’t worry…
We are very much ok.
You’ll always be ...

Gone Now
Yeah, come on
Yeah, another day
Yeah another struggle
Another another story
Another book
I lost too many to the struggle
I see their faces every time I'm starin' deep in the puddle
Reminiscin' 'bout them nights we had to hustle through trouble
They say it gets easier, but I still feel the rubble
He wonder what he did to deserve
Another homie in the casket, name stitched in the curb
I seen it all before, so nothin' really seem to disturb
Another five-man procession, dressed in all black furs
God is the...

Life Moves On
I remember a day
So very long ago
When I'd play in the garden
Chasing ladybugs in summer
There was beauty in the simplicity
The sunny days of 2000-something
When age was a single number
And I was still in one piece
This world will change you
It'll darken your innocent soul
Draining your heart
As things fall apart
We'd all love to stay in those good old days
But life moves on
Do you remember
So very long ago
When we could play make-believe
Our imagination limitless
It's funny...

Spilling Sands
Time echoes aloft,
The hourglass spills,
silver grains falling soft.
Moments slide into the past,
Minutes now forever lost.
The clock ticks,
a heartbeat on the wall.
Gears turn without end,
Hands move forward,
never pausing,
never looking back.
Minutes slip through brass fingers.
Hours drift like whispers in the wind.
Rust creeps in,
but the gears still turn.
Time hums its endless song.

Haunted Memories
Raindrop shadows brocade melodies
memories of soothing ocean tides
in melancholy serendipity yawning
sweet pedigree of lemongrass
in nature's hammock of haunted winds
and long legs whispering love

Four for the Road
Four for the Road
I Walpi
Bruja voice of a thousand tears
Takes us to the sky born wheel
Where pueblo wonders through centuries
Upon flower mesa that blossoms love
For children of dusty walls
Whose cast iron dreams
Are a coal stove in a pottery room
With a lady of ancient designs
Whose smile is the murmuring sun
That glimmers through a veil of sand
When her ceramic children
With motifs as sacred as the land
Are too strange for homes of...

Echoes of You
You’ve gone somewhere I can’t follow,
A hollow path, a silent sorrow.
Your eyes don’t meet mine anymore,
You’ve locked the light behind a door.
I reach for you, but you’re not there,
A phantom caught in empty air.
Where did you go?
What did you see?
We’re left with shadows
Where you should be.
You’re slipping through,
We’re losing the fight—
A ghost in the day,
A wisp in the night.
What have you found, so far, so deep?
What takes your soul while we can’t sleep?
Your silence screams, your shadow...
A hollow path, a silent sorrow.
Your eyes don’t meet mine anymore,
You’ve locked the light behind a door.
I reach for you, but you’re not there,
A phantom caught in empty air.
Where did you go?
What did you see?
We’re left with shadows
Where you should be.
You’re slipping through,
We’re losing the fight—
A ghost in the day,
A wisp in the night.
What have you found, so far, so deep?
What takes your soul while we can’t sleep?
Your silence screams, your shadow...
