Alight
Yeah I made it through the day
Made it through the night
Made it through the time where all I would wish for was to die
But they took it to me instead
Yeah it didn’t hurt, it was worth
The only thing left for the rest, it was death
But maybe you could reconsider
Maybe we could start again and be less bitter
Maybe we could start again and baby let’s not fight forever
Let’s be more clever, so we can be together
So drop the act and just be mine
Cause’ I know you can shine
Shining like a diamond in the sky
A star...
Made it through the night
Made it through the time where all I would wish for was to die
But they took it to me instead
Yeah it didn’t hurt, it was worth
The only thing left for the rest, it was death
But maybe you could reconsider
Maybe we could start again and be less bitter
Maybe we could start again and baby let’s not fight forever
Let’s be more clever, so we can be together
So drop the act and just be mine
Cause’ I know you can shine
Shining like a diamond in the sky
A star...

Quiet Light
I'm always sitting here talking to you
I don't need to hear anything now
I'm not afraid to be alone
And I know what to do with my time
Between you and me
I thought all of this would be so over
And I knew it would not be too soon
But here I am, and I'm learning
The sky goes from night to Day
You do not know
I think of you more than anything ...
I don't need to hear anything now
I'm not afraid to be alone
And I know what to do with my time
Between you and me
I thought all of this would be so over
And I knew it would not be too soon
But here I am, and I'm learning
The sky goes from night to Day
You do not know
I think of you more than anything ...

Halo
13th Floor Elevators I Had To Tell You
Clear queue
Lydia I owe you this, that much
Thank you for all the gifts
I have the answer
For all your questions
If you have money
To pay for gold
i live
By Old Monte Carlo
And they read ...

What’s Your Story (apologies to Leslie Gore)
Chorus:
What’s your story I don’t know I don’t want to
No I don’t want to
No I don’t want to
I don’t want to know a thing about you
You could be a conservative
It’s all about states rights with you
If so then I’m really glad
That I’m not a black or a Jew
Chorus
You could be a damn liberal
And want to take the guns away
From good god-fearing americans
If so this is all I can to say
Chorus
Or if you are a moderate
An unusual point of view
The last place I want to be is
Stuck...
What’s your story I don’t know I don’t want to
No I don’t want to
No I don’t want to
I don’t want to know a thing about you
You could be a conservative
It’s all about states rights with you
If so then I’m really glad
That I’m not a black or a Jew
Chorus
You could be a damn liberal
And want to take the guns away
From good god-fearing americans
If so this is all I can to say
Chorus
Or if you are a moderate
An unusual point of view
The last place I want to be is
Stuck...

Swan Song
Alone I cry, the darkness won't fade away
The start of night, the beginning of my day
I go to church, I wish and I will pray
I have a voice but nothing left to say
I hear the ocean but never see the wave
I see the golden road that I will never pave
The hope inside that I had failed to save
The fear I feel, so hard to just be brave
I'm on a mountain, looking for a light
I'm on my own, looking at the sky
I am afraid, the middle of the night
I am a coward, I will run from the fight
A soaring airplane, a bird just...
The start of night, the beginning of my day
I go to church, I wish and I will pray
I have a voice but nothing left to say
I hear the ocean but never see the wave
I see the golden road that I will never pave
The hope inside that I had failed to save
The fear I feel, so hard to just be brave
I'm on a mountain, looking for a light
I'm on my own, looking at the sky
I am afraid, the middle of the night
I am a coward, I will run from the fight
A soaring airplane, a bird just...

My Buddy Tom
I've got a friend.
He's a little strange
'cause I found him in the pages of a diary
that I found in my stacks.
Ain't gotta pretend.
I tell him all my
hopes and dreams and of the lightening bolt
that makes me lose track of the days.
I'm amazed--
so patient, so kind.
My buddy Tom keeps all my secrets for me;
He keeps me calm when I'm too foggy to see;
When I'm depressed and lonely, he's my company.
This school is so darn big for a red little Weasley.
I told him the tale
of how I...
He's a little strange

Realm vs Cypher
My Realm is not my Cypher
My Cypher is not my Realm
The Cypher is the group
The Realm is who I am
My Queendom and territory
land, my Room, my Castle
My Realm
Rappers on lookers
Spectators with big crowds,
Battles and freestyles making
Noise and Wildin out
My Circle of Friends
We keep it moving
Til everyone joins
Spitting hot fire in
My Cypher
No one is allowed in
My Realm unless
I give them a key
If you step in my vicinity
Then you belong to me
If you step on...
My Cypher is not my Realm
The Cypher is the group
The Realm is who I am
My Queendom and territory
land, my Room, my Castle
My Realm
Rappers on lookers
Spectators with big crowds,
Battles and freestyles making
Noise and Wildin out
My Circle of Friends
We keep it moving
Til everyone joins
Spitting hot fire in
My Cypher
No one is allowed in
My Realm unless
I give them a key
If you step in my vicinity
Then you belong to me
If you step on...

Nobody Else Will Be There
When they say someone else is not
What would they mean?
Can you meet me in the stair
For a glass of gin?
Nobody else will be there
Nobody else will be there
Nobody else will be there
Nobody else will be there ...
What would they mean?
Can you meet me in the stair
For a glass of gin?
Nobody else will be there
Nobody else will be there
Nobody else will be there
Nobody else will be there ...

Skeletons (Song lyrics)
I’ve lost my way, again
Caught between now and then
Grab my journal and my pen
Change the ‘if’ to a ‘when’
Lock myself behind the bathroom door
Like I’ve done a million times before
Can’t keep up the charade
So I hide away cause I’m afraid
You say I’m psychosomatic
Does that mean you think I’m dramatic
Is paranoia symptomatic
Can you hear me through the static
Of the tv and computer screens
And the gloss of the magazines
They’ll tell you I’m a classic case
My thoughts already in their database
...

Light Days
(V1)
You got me, locked in this
Acrylic daze for days
And I don't know
Where I'm going
Or where I've been
Or who paid
Out of place, out of time
Intentions, in ten shoes
Walked around
Got lost
In my own house
(Pre-Chorus)
Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
Lickin' windows or the pane
Babe I think we've gone insane
Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
All the faces in the grain
Babe I think we've gone insane
(V2)
Was I here,...
You got me, locked in this
Acrylic daze for days
And I don't know

Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
Lickin' windows or the pane
Babe I think we've gone insane

I'm shattered, devestated

Can we all agree to disagree on what the world thinks of you and me?
Stop being silent on the inside while burning on the outside for the whole world to see?
Anger arises from weak minds.
Eyeopening deaths provoke hate crimes.
Do we unite in our brief lives?
Or keep dodging rubber bullets and enamel from canines?
Catch a line from a rap with your opened eyes.
Feel alive after death when they sow the lines.
Is there life after death? Contradictive minds.
Brutality projects on thoughts, help us clean the isles.
Press...
