YesterDaze
I was lost in a thick smoky haze
Yeah i was lost in a mystifying daze
And i was just sitting contemplating my ways
When I started thinking about yesterdays
Now I remember when I was a boy
All the feelings of love and all the feelings of joy
I remember the good times outweighing the bad
Those were the best days I ever had
Now I remember growing a little bit older
I remember my world growing even colder
A long winter descended on me
The sharp blade of tragedy
But running around i soon took a tumble
And a magic place I had found i had stumbled
The empress she came and she took me on high
Showed me the way and opened my minds eye
Taught me how to fly…
Now so you see I am a man
So i’ll keep on trying I’ll do the best that i can
I’ll keep on living this life of mine
And each step I take puts the rest behind
Now my story is near its conclusion
This world around me seems like an illusion
I gave you a glimpse inside just to say
That all of this seems just like yesterday…
Just like yesterday…

Hold Her Closer

Hold Her Closer
Oh my darling don't let go
Just keep on holding me tightly
Just until the morning comes
And our sun shines so brightly
Listen to the wind blow
Look at all the falling snow
Let's pass away the hours
Baby don't let me go
Don't let me go
Just don't let me go
Don't let me go
All I wanna do is hold my baby
All I wanna do is keep her close
Spend a whole day just being lazy
Till the night comes and we let loose
And I don't even know how she does this to me
But I wouldn't have it any other way
She's in my mind and has my heart
She melts my soul when I hear her say
Baby you know that I love you
Baby you know that I care
It's crazy just the way that this is
But your the only that can take me there.
It's early again and I can't sleep
My love for you just runs to deep
To let myself let go of this
Still wrapped up in our last kiss
I don't wanna live without you
I don't want this to go away
All I want is to be together
So every morning I can hear you say
Baby you know that I love you
Baby you know that I care
It's crazy just the way that this is
But your the only that can take me there.

Dalliance With Discord
Its the lines to the song
On the tip of your tongue
Its the feeling you get
From the hairs on your neck
Keep having trysts with my self destruction
A dalliance with my sweet Eris
A sucker for her clever seduction
She sets the pipe right between my lips
Its the bending light
Just outta your sight
Its the things that you find
In the back of your mind
Its the shit made of broken dreams
Where ghosts and goblins are running the scene
Where everybody seems to move in a daze
You'll never get outta this place
She’ll be your lover, she’ll be your mate
She’ll be the end result that seals your fate
You'll have no worries when your with her
As your life passes by in a blur
So don't you dare go runnin away
She has the bosom that keeps you safe
You'll never escape her vicious allure
She is the ailment for which theirs no cure
It's the itch that you can't scratch
It's the monkey latched onto your back
Its the wolf in cunning disguise
It's the vampire will be your demise
Keep having trysts with my self destruction
I can't escape her vicious caress
Boiling me down, such simple reduction
Intoxicated by the smoke in her kiss
I never wanted to see her again
I never wanted to see her face
But draped in silk she looks like powder
With a sinister grin she's holding my chains

Breaking The Mould
They gave me the mould
And I said I wanna break it.
They said you'd better not,
If you really wanna make it
That's just how it is
Anyway take it
But I really don't even
Know how to fake it
I see through your sunken eyes
Your withered will your hollow mind
I wish you would find the time
To cut the cloth that keeps you blind
Keep getting told how to live my life
And just as I think they may be right
My muse tells me to follow my light
It's the only guidance through the dark of night.
I see through your sunken eyes
Your withered will your hollow mind
I wish you would find the time
To cut the cloth that keeps you blind
I can't live like you want me too
You don't know what I've been through
I wouldn't be here if I conceited
To all the ways I've been mistreated
Got knocked down and been defeated
From my knees got on my feet and
Rose above the trials I've had
Along the way shedding what made me mad
And I'll tell you that I'm so glad
To finally learn what real love meant

The Bitter Sweet
Here I am
Afloat again
On my own
As I’ve always been
Just a different time
In a different space
Searching for a familiar face
To hang out
Laugh and talk
To hold my hand
While we walk
Through this endless deserts
Sands of times
Eternal notebook
Of parallel lines
We only get one line to scribe
The events and details of our lives
Some of us think it’s up to heaven and hell
Not realizing it’s our own story
Some of us just like to pretend
Some of us get cutoff mid sentence
Some of us make it to the very end
Just wishing we could go back to the beginning again
Some are here just to take and take and take
While others try just to give it all away
Some live in lies and deceit
One thing for sure this life’s so bitter sweet…

The Hatter & The Hare
I've been living in my own reality
And then you came and ran right in to me
And now whenever whenever you can
You take a trip down to my wonderland.
You've been living by everyone else's rules
With their misplaced perceptions so callous and cruel
And then you saw me living wild and free
And couldn't help but lose yourself in me
But alas my dear the queen of hearts rules this realm
And in your world the jack of spades steers the helm
You could stay here in this beautiful fantasy
But I know in the end you'll never choose me
We move in perfect symmetry
When your here there's nothing but chemistry
And we dance the entire night away
But i can never convince you to stay
I've given you all that I have
Shown you that true love can drive one mad
But it's the best most intense kind of insane
You have my heart, my love it's yours to break

This Bleeding Heart
Sometimes in life you gotta leave behind.
Something so dear to you feels like your losing you mind.
And everything inside of you don't want to go.
But it's the only thing that's left to do.
You've tried to hold on for oh so long.
Tried to hold on tightly but it's already gone.
you've been holding on to handfuls of sand
Thought you had substances but it's just bare strands.
I love you baby and I always will.
I wish this wasn't our fate cuz it kills.
I only wish you well but I hope you know
This bleeding, this bleeding hearts for you
You wish you tried harder and set it on a star
You've gone so long like this you've come to far
never expected anymore than a tryst
Now that your here there's no turning back from this.
I love you baby and I always will
I wish this wasn't our fate cuz it kills.
I only wish you well but I hope you know
This bleeding, this bleeding hearts for you
Your mind is racing for a way back in
So you could rectify all of your sins
You on keep reaching in for something more.
But your heart’s empty and hers an open sore.
I love you baby and I always will.
I wish this wasn't our fate cuz it kills.
I only wish you well but I hope you know
This bleeding, this bleeding hearts for you...

Moments
what's with the games that people play
why can't you say what you really wanna say
why don't real moments every seem to last
your trying to take them all way to fast
you gotta live for what you enjoy
so grab your girls and grab your boys
hold them close and turn them on
one moments here the next is already gone
it's ok to let time slide
but lifes a trip so enjoy the ride
try not to take things in such haste
before you know it your whole life’s laid waste
you gotta live for what you enjoy
so grab your girls and grab your boys
hold them close and turn them on
one moments here the next is already gone
With all these distractions blocking the view
I know it’s hard to take time for you
Once in awhile just slow it all down
you’ll be surprised at what can be found
you gotta live for what you enjoy
so grab your girls and grab your boys
hold them close and turn them on
one moments here the next is already gone

Mind Duals
My heart is my own
My soul is all eternal
My mind is my home
My passion burns inferno.
I watch as the days
Breed love and fruits of wisdom
I watch as the nights
Spawn hatred and its demons
As the planets
Turn round in cosmic clock work
We ebb and flow
With the energies put forth
Not to discount
Our will and our ambition
But if we ride The waves
we'll transcend dimensions.
We all have broken minds
Cuz we don't realize
We are the heavens and the earth intertwined
We are the beast and the divine combined.
We are so eager to draw out the lines
Between good and evil minds
This is the flaw in dualist ideas
Nature sheds for none a tear
Yet we insist on our dominant state
Single handedly sealing our fate
With so much promise, potential and hope
Still we choose to tie the noose with the rope
Break down
The walls
And begin to blur these lines
Or be prepared
To bid all
this farewell; goodbye.

Imagine The Things…
Imagine all the
Things that we could
Achieve if we only tried
We already live
So much longer
Traversed the planet
Broke through the sky
And if we banded
Tribes together
Under one
humanistic banner
Where race, religion, orientation or
Power structures, didn't matter
I believe their is no ceiling to the heights we could ascend
And I know that this perspective is so hard to comprehend
But if we don't heed the writing on the wall my friend
What could be perpetual is so close to the end...
