Sissyboy

Dance into the night
a butterfly in mating time
Ride your motorbike
and let the wind
mess up your mind

Goddess of love and crime
of hunting night
of black and white

Vase of gold and sin
Of white silk skin
so tall and thin

Kiss me wet and juicy lips
Temptation and Freudian slips
Embrace me in cold despise
Give with disregard the prize

Dancing Butterfly

Lost in thoughts like a little boy
Love’s a horse in the beach of Troy
Love is a complicate thing
You never know how long it lasts
You make plans for live and then it just goes by fast
Hopeful child, lose your parents’sight
Stare into the balcony
Find the price for your destiny

You feel like a man, You feel bold
But there’s a weight on your shoulders
All you know is your tired mind is a clock you can’t wind
Nights pass by and you’re left thinking of a life you’ll never live
But it’s all smoke and it’s all a lie, life is never that nice

Go away, find yourself
Travel light, feel dead inside
Work hard and learn to speak
Hope for peace and make ammendments
Sorry my son your year is done
End it all and feel the fever
Night and day under your bedsheets
Crazy boy, you don’t even know your own name

Beach of Troy

The smell of the sea
and of the fruit tree
Walking aimless in the desert
are all I have with me
and the bright sun
is louder than anyone
and no feeling
from nobody
has any meaning to me

I beg for my life
and I think of suicide
cowards and bastards
all I need is a knife

Desert Run

Night falls over the Huntington Gardens
his favorite place
Hiding in the Chinese Garden
pills
Dead in the desert garden
you can’t see much in the dark
The statues cast shadows
with the light of the moon
There are many interesting books in the store
but no time to read them when you know you’ll be dead soon
Rich people build the nicest places
sometimes
It costs a lot to get inside
he never wanted to leave
But they carried him out alright

Huntington Gardens Nightfall

My brother, My brother
You see they left a trap for you to fall
and you did well
My brother, My brother
They told you something you couldn’t understand
and you understood

Pick your best clothes, it’s dawn in the fields
It won’t take long for the sun to come
and show the world what you have done

But times are harsh and you must know
their lies will fade in time like the power of the kings of old

Forget the trust you put in love
The howling winds of change will tell you where to go
You have a life free of pain
I’ll stay here, I’ll take the blame
When you lay in your soft bed
Clean of sweat with money you deserved
Never think of me, I’ve had my share
I’ve done nothing of the freedom I was owed

You have no brother, you have no pain
You will have love, perhaps one day you will see her again

But be careful of pretty girl
They won’t see value in your souls
Because they have none

Be careful with those pretty pretty girls
they have no sense of what is wrong
They want it all
But you know it already don’t ya?

Brother brother

When you came here yesterday
I know you had so much to say
and I’m sorry

You wanted me to care and love
to thing I’m empty of
and I’m sorry

When I saw you standing there
I felt my heart sink
not enough to really care
and not as much as you think
I don’t need to walk in your shoes
my life is miserable too

Sometimes you’re so annoying
sometimes I love you so
not enough to kill the pain
not enough to care again
I know I am no saint
I never said I am
I know I’m awful

Sometimes you’re so annoying
sometimes I am too
everything seems wrong
but we’ll never be through
sometimes I wanna make you happy
sometimes I wanna see you cry
and cause you pain

I wanna be alone here
and recompose my brain
I wanna live my dreams inside my head
and slowly go insane

We have a long life to live
and I know I’m gonna stay here
I love to see you grow old and wise and beautiful

So much to say

The posters are off the walls
they’re not there anymore
the old photographs I’ve burned
as you requested my love
I won’t spend any more time
reading and drinking alone
I won’t listen to music you don’t care for
I stopped smoking my love
you know I used to love to

I won’t ask you to change
I won’t complain
You are perfect as you are
just don’t leave me alone
You can come back home

You can do as you please
I have no say what you do with your life
I’ve always wanted a boy but
a daughter will be fine
you can raise her as you like
And when your mood is gone
just let me know,
a kick in the balls will do
I’ll have a bag ready
I’ll sleep in the grass, it’s fine
I’ll be back when you want me to

I’ll eat once a day
So you don’t have to cook
I gotta lose some weight
if you want me to look good

You can come back home

Hide from your pain
in lives of dream
you are a slave
of your misery

hide from your pain
say you love me again
you know there's no meaning
you know it ain't true

Hide from your life and
tell me goodbye
another night of
loneliness and pain

bring me your lies
I have not changed
I've got troubles in my brain

Show me your true colors
hide from your life
I have no wisdom
I give no advice
