A Senryú Ode To Somewhere Over The Rainbow
Somewhere bluebirds fly
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I

My nanna used to say...
My nanna used to say,
always tell the truth no matter what,
it's better to be an honest fool than a dodgy crook,
Believe in yourself, a personality is better than a look,
Don't waste your time on technology,
Instead read a book.
You see my nanna was cut from a different cloth,
She came from an era where you worked for everything you got
I remember she said,
as long as you've got a roof over your head,
food in your belly and a nice warm bed,
That's a good start,
And with the warmth in your heart,
And the joy that you...
always tell the truth no matter what,
it's better to be an honest fool than a dodgy crook,
Believe in yourself, a personality is better than a look,
Don't waste your time on technology,
Instead read a book.

Bringing Down Scarface (It's Just A Matter Of Time Part III)
Yeah Gee… that’s what I’m talking about, that so called undercover bitch trying to hustle the street as the top clit
Mask done slipped and letting the Cartels know the plastic looking swan hides behind a self-cartoonish facelift
And have the nerve to be talking cash shit
Not to worry, you know I don’t run when I clip wings
And who don’t know that about you, my Queen
I will heal a hoe’s ass up then snuff a poser out when singing they mama an enteral lullaby dream
Silly rabbit tricks are for...

Diamond Plate Bones
Dark conversations go round and round
Inside my head when no one’s around
Walking around searching for trees
Strong branches with lots of leaves
Beauty of flesh rots eventually
Cast it aside and you will see
Life is hard full of misery
Should I stay or should I go
Slide into the wind that blows
Leave you my Diamond Plate Bones
God’s ganna hate me
Devil's ganna save me
Understands me better after all
He’s embracing my fall
From the branch up high
The noose held tight
Yeah I took the flight ...
Inside my head when no one’s around
Walking around searching for trees
Strong branches with lots of leaves
Beauty of flesh rots eventually
Cast it aside and you will see
Life is hard full of misery
Should I stay or should I go
Slide into the wind that blows
Leave you my Diamond Plate Bones
God’s ganna hate me
Devil's ganna save me
Understands me better after all
He’s embracing my fall
From the branch up high
The noose held tight
Yeah I took the flight ...

Humiliation Street
I survived the dinner
With the air getting thinner
And I retired to the pond
But it got so loud there
If I die at this moment
Take it from a distance
Maybe they'll list it
Among other things
This urban environment ...
With the air getting thinner

But it got so loud there

Fear In My Fingers.
I'm standing here alone
I'm watching things unfold
Then suddenly I'm told.....
WAIT!
Its since we took those steps
That I've had no regrets
But suddenly I'm told.....
WAIT!
Didn't it show
That love is all that matters
Didn't it show
Your love is all that matters
You've given me
Fear In My Fingers.

White Angel in the Sky
In a time when only planes existed
The great ones walked between the worlds
Stepping stones of the gods
In the grasp of sovereign dragons
Empowering the wingless ones
The darkness grew slowly and expanded
But none of them would believe
That out of the womb of order and truth
There could breed such a chaos
And Universal
Creeping freeze
The gods played Gathering cards
Blind hope to repel
The force that came up
From under them
But their hands were down
She was nowhere to be seen
As the swamps took...
The great ones walked between the worlds
Stepping stones of the gods
In the grasp of sovereign dragons
Empowering the wingless ones
The darkness grew slowly and expanded
But none of them would believe
That out of the womb of order and truth
There could breed such a chaos
And Universal
Creeping freeze
The gods played Gathering cards
Blind hope to repel
The force that came up
From under them
But their hands were down
She was nowhere to be seen
As the swamps took...

Two Songs: Longing and Understanding

A Song about Longing
You smile when you see the moon through the clouds!
But where is that smile when you’re hiding in the crowds?
One of the many, you need to stand out so much more…
Or no matter how far you swim, you’ll never reach shore.
You think I can’t see you, but my eyes pierce the veil!
You set your sights far too high, and you hope not to fail.
Like you I have dreams, and they fill my nights entire…
Like you I have a thirst, and it was born out of...

Killing The Innocent
I saved you remember?
having lost your lust for life
came back home to die
said it yourself
what is love that only flows one way
the point is it's fucked fated to die
Now you've taken my reason away
without a fucking care
what it's done to me
narcissist much?
get your fucking head out your arse
Laying here in a pool of self pity and abuse
blood where tears used to be
You sure played that hidden ace well
like a sledge hammer to the face
Now you've taken my reason away
without a fucking...

Entitled
Take me back to the time
When she wanted me to go with her to the school dance
I was a bad kid so I got in-school suspension
Sweet talked the teacher into letting me go
Showed up late to find her dancing with someone else
Just hung out the rest of the day with my friends
As they blasted Offspring’s “Pretty fly” on the radio
It was good to live through my generation
Guess its all perspective but
Late 90s early 2000s is where I found my favorite songs
Wish I would have known it while it lasted
Still have my old blink records in the attic...
