Dream

“To work of ideas barely formed, one must dream to fill in empty spaces. It is important to build a foundation, even if mere wisps of airy dream are the brick and mortar.”

Randomness

I must do, I must do, I must do,
because if I don’t,
I will be done. Inevitable.

Truth is like a shelter
it protects you from the rain
lies are like the rain
one day you forget the umbrella

--

wounded slaves of nature
her wind, her rain, her snow
toil away this earth
wear away the rock
grind it down to sand
turn the day to night
and bend the trees with wind and storm but
lightening and thunder, mountains, earthquakes, oceans
and even the falling snow will wear
and yet life will continue on

--

Cold cold dark night
cold cold dark night
pull me through the darkness
into the light
pull me into your arms
and brighten

Waterfall

Characters they lookin’ at me, I know
A thousand different expressions in the snow
Don’t think I could tell what they're saying
Even if I could, would I want to know?

All that life’s got in the chamber is a shot
Your way through the storm you’re finding
There’s no light ahead, just waves that are breakin’
on the shores
of desperation, dismay and down and out
Cause I ain’t found my way
Ain’t looking to get nowhere
Just racing down the streets for a runaway dream
Hoping that a future will catch me up
And what I imagined is seen.

Return Policy

To be happy is more
the state of mind
than the state of being.

Rewind.
Relive.
Rejoice.

All is well, to be remembered well.

Peaceful lives

Common ground is not here
You are not the griever
You are not lost to me
Take your hands and raise them
Praise the life you live in
Make your way back home
Begin to feel a reason to exist

Stare down from that future
Reach back from that past
Feel the dirt at your feet
Hold it in your hands
This life is not a mess
You will do what you can
Now is not the past
The moment is yours to last

Tear up your excuses
They are lies that abuse you
Face up to your expression
It is you in reaction to everyone you know
To the world you glow
Don’t be sad, when you are happy
Mirror your soul
Slip it into your own skin
Let it walk with you
Be a friend, be a friend

You are not alone

Odyssey

The tears?
the fears?
the years?
I tear at!
Stare.

“Beware friend
have care when peering at the beginning
be aware whence begun one must beget an end”

So, I must end they say!
I must die they say!!
I must leave this place
like wind in my face.
Cold callus wind I taste.

Yes!
Death is there.
no fairness
Death knocks at my door Grace
I hear
but I don’t answer see

I live and breathe
day by day
I live and breathe the blessings of life
There is good and bad of course
There is chaos and calamity
I must admit
But there are happy times, too

Here at home
I listen to my thoughts
fluttering through my mind
and I know deep inside
I will continue through tomorrow
to the next day
Through sorrow
and happiness
I will pave my self
a story worth telling
one so full of emotion
all who listen will feel human
like me

Life is a potion
a facsimile of a dream
and we each journey it seems
across an ocean
through a sea of storms
and in the end
discover the world flat
and your journey
a one way trip...

Here to there

Where was I inside my mind?
Was I lost? Where was time?
I stood still, I couldn’t feel

The 'there' I will never know
The 'here' is my only road

Burn Ban - A lyric

You gave me a gun
Little bird tucked his wings in to dive
Pull the trigger man
Can’t leave him here to stay alive

Disposable nation pillage and plunder, wreck havoc on
Can’t live without it, gotta have it all
Commercialization on the TV, the world for profit
Trade in your life; give the man your balls

You sold the rights God
Gave man the credit to buy the earth
Call in the debt man
Can’t sell a shithole for half it’s worth

Magnificent nation divide and conquer, give it your all
America the beautiful, America the great
Devastation on the news, nowhere else I’d rather be
Sell your soul; let it pay for your hate

You taught me to win
Don’t plead with those lower than
Start a fire man
Can’t light the world with a burn ban

Total destruction awaiting orders from new management
Corruption eats from the inside, vote for me
Pandemonium on the stage of life, total chaos
Tear me from my addiction, set me free

You ran out of bullets
Give the little bird his liberty and justice
Distill the hate man
There’s free will, no need to be an accomplice

Disposable nation pillage and plunder, wreck havoc on
Can’t live without it, gotta have it all
Commercialization on the TV, the world for profit
Trade in your life; give the man your balls

You sold the rights God
Gave man the credit to buy the earth
Call in the debt man
Can’t sell a shithole for half it’s worth
