The Great Deceiver
Fueled by a consuming rage
Pointed at every situation
As I fall into the final stage
Right before the initiation
Locked inside self-torment
Wiggling out of the noose
Keeping all the spirits dormant
Until madness is busting loose
Pressure building within me
Anger clouding all that I see
Face to face with destiny
Victim of the great deceiver
Tangled within this mutiny
Built by the great deceiver
Wilting on the forbidden vine
Loyal to the art of betrayal
Sinking to depths so asinine
Casted in...
Pointed at every situation

Victim of the great deceiver
Tangled within this mutiny

Stop & get a ticket
You know your baby's gonna leave you
If you don't treat her better
She's gonna hop that train and say bye bye
You got to run and tell the conductor
You got to stop and get a ticket (3x)
You know your baby use to love you
You wouldn't have no other
But she ran away and said good bye
And now she won't be your lover
You got to stop and get a ticket (3x)
That angered me and I grabbed her
Punched her directly in the nose
She's now not going to leave my side
Cause if she tries I'll cut off her toes
...

THOUGHTS ABOUT WRITING A LOVE SONG
#1
There are millions of love songs
written since the dawn of man;
many have been lost
many still roam the land.
Every love song is special
written from desire in the heart
each one is about unique love
how and where it starts.
CHORUS
If I could write a love song
it would be about you;
it would contain your name
and my promise to be true.
If I could write a love song
I would sing it every day,
to remind us both
that our love is here to stay.
...

Flown Away - with Grace
I guess I've been living in a bottle
turning my mind, odd fellow
to awake and find a feather
of a dove that's flown away
I know without you by my side
my shadow will fall and quake
I have sinned among the bottles
knowing I have tarnished our vows
of all the years and forgotten chores
listening to the devil make a fool of me
to awake and find a feather
of a dove that's flown away
the eastern sky blushes with the dawn
a new page opens a chapter written
the stories of the past are not...
turning my mind, odd fellow
to awake and find a feather
of a dove that's flown away
I know without you by my side
my shadow will fall and quake
I have sinned among the bottles
knowing I have tarnished our vows
of all the years and forgotten chores
listening to the devil make a fool of me
to awake and find a feather
of a dove that's flown away
the eastern sky blushes with the dawn
a new page opens a chapter written
the stories of the past are not...

In the Grey
I'm in the middle
of night and day
one foot in
one foot out
of my grave
I'm in the middle
of thunder and
miles of rain
where all the color
is washed away
You'll find me
in the grey
Colorblind
and that's okay
The clock
has her hands
filled with time
too busy to
pay any mind
My roots have
turned to stone
from my head
I grew a throne
to sit and wait
Weathered and dry
when it's time to die
keeping my cool
where all the color ...
of night and day
one foot in
one foot out
of my grave
I'm in the middle

miles of rain
where all the color

You'll find me

and that's okay

has her hands
filled with time

turned to stone
from my head
I grew a throne

This Litte Piggy
This Little Piggy went to market this Little Piggy still trying to find her way back home
Where once upon a time her evil sisters and mother turned their back on her existence leaving her all alone
In her father’s eyes she never measured up
Where can a small child get love if it is not given from the crown of her generational cup
No matter how hard she tried, dysfunctional and slightly obese
Hiding her true self behind baggish boyish clothes worn down to her knees
To everyone else she was a mistake, a disgrace, now scarred face, and lack luster of no...

~~…MOËT…~~~
G F C, D C G
Promises made in the dark, forever long ago told me,
It was written in the stars that I would want you
Before you ever wondered in front of my eyes,
The missing twin flame inside of me started burning, the moment I seen into your crystal brown eyes
Yes it was written that I would always love you, Man they got me hypnotized
What did the rushing waters take away love,
Mí Vída; Open up, Your heart, let me see
Sailing away below the fire moon an amethyst skylines
Let the evenin breeze tell you, along purple blue wine dark oceans,...

without you
a squirrel’s in the front yard
a crow up in the pine
alone rocking on the front porch
going out of my mind
the bed hasn’t been slept in
no one’s messed up the stove
if it wasn’t half past July
I’d swear my heart was froze
without you
I’m just a left shoe
without you
dreams don’t come true
without you
my crayons are all blue
one and one ain’t two
without you
I can’t take another day
sitting here all alone
my hearts just inside the front door
please darling come back home ...
a crow up in the pine
alone rocking on the front porch
going out of my mind
the bed hasn’t been slept in
no one’s messed up the stove
if it wasn’t half past July
I’d swear my heart was froze
without you
I’m just a left shoe
without you
dreams don’t come true
without you
my crayons are all blue
one and one ain’t two
without you
I can’t take another day
sitting here all alone
my hearts just inside the front door
please darling come back home ...

Pretty plastic
Pretty plastic people.
Pretty plastic play.
What you see is what you get.
And it's always the same.
As I look into the camera.
Back out through your eyes.
We know each others secrets.
Yet "believe" the other's lies.
Pretty plastic people.
Pretty plastic play.
What you see is what you get.
it's easier that way.
It's not superficial.
This glorious facade.
Keeping up the act.
Is always super hard.
Pretty plastic people.
Pretty plastic play.
What you see is what you get. ...

Last to Leave the Party
You’re the last to leave the party
The last one to catch on
They’re way too kind to kick you out
But they’ve already gone
They’re setting good times on the shelf
They’re turning off their phones
When you’re last to leave the party
You get used to drinking alone
Should’ve known the time would come when you’d get left behind
But you were having so much fun you couldn’t see the signs
They’re looking at their watches saying sorry, gotta run
But it’s not late, and you thought things had only just begun
Time only flies for the person...

The misbegotten starvation
The ultimate conversion
Of segments in time
The creation; dishonest
Controlling
I’m milking the grave
Justification
Stealing the breed
I’m a soul involved in misery
Conceiving the deceit
For my mind
Will soon be overtaking your illusive kind
From what
does the world descend
Shaping all creations thoughtless lives
Condemned to a mourning sin
seduce me til your ill-infested end
Drawn to avoidance
A resistance
A capability to die
A blood tear
I shed
I’m left too shallow to defy
...

Now or now
.. ...
Love is calling
Unexpected
I'm ready
It's a warning
So seductive
I'm melting
I'm a river
She's the ocean
I remember
I remember
She's like ... ... a memory
How long ... ... has it been?
Too long
Too long
Is she ... ... the one I want ?
She is ... ... unavoidable
Now or never
Now or now
Now, now, now
...
Love is calling
Unexpected
I'm ready
Budding romance
Autumn trees
New beginning
Hell is dying ...
Love is calling
Unexpected
I'm ready
It's a warning
So seductive
I'm melting
I'm a river
She's the ocean
I remember
I remember
She's like ... ... a memory
How long ... ... has it been?
