Keepin It Together

Let It Flow Like the Rain

Rise Again

Wide Awake

Torn But Not Broken

Artwork by Vladimir Kush

Written 18 years ago.... is what I'll say in ten years.

I’ve been an addict all my life long
to games I can’t win and puzzles I can’t solve
It’s been some kind of sick fascination
to find myself in impossible situations 
-
and this one is one of those
I’m a deep sea fish reaching for a desert rose
I’m a parking lot, hoping that a garden grows
I’m me and you’re you and my only way through is to divide by zero

you don’t like me much but I promise you this
if you knew me better you’d like me even less
If you could see what goes on in my thoughts
I think you’d personally lead the firing squad

but even though I wouldn’t agree
I’m so flawed, I’d assume I deserve it for something
this song just needs to be worthy of suffering 
I just want you to want something you can’t get anywhere except from me

It puts me out of sorts, but I think you’re my twin
and I ought to sue you for copyright infringement
but i’m sure at the court you’d have this winning defense:
my best is your ground floor, you do all I do and more, you’re improved at the core, so I’d best be out the door, with my obsolescence 
-
but you don’t know the thing you’ve offered
for a minute my sadness has an object
before this it hung shapeless as fog upon me
Now it’s fenced in a daydream that I can keep and smother by slow degrees
(And I guess you'd call that "sorrow laundering")

so even if it’s been in your mind
and even if there were enough time
and even if it’s true, what I swear I have seen
what you’d have to do would split you at the seams
-
it’d never be worth the risk
a dream gambled for so much less
just come clean, a daydream is all this is
some scene, from a movie we probably all saw as stupid kids

I’m sure you can tell most of this is an act
It can all go to hell, as a matter of fact
If I even thought this one could be solved
If I even thought the words could be carved
If I even thought I had something you want 
I’d ruin my life for those lottery odds.

The Despot. This weeks number 4 song

PRODUCTIVITY SEARCH - WHEN PERFORMANCE DETERMINES VALUE

“In the belief that I have to be constantly productive in order to have a right to exist, I have forgotten to simply BE.”

MORE THAN ENOUGH (528 HZ)

[Verse]
Why did I do that what a dumb play
I fumbled the steps tripped on my own sway
The guard heard my noise his eyes like fire
I broke into the dark chased by his ire

[Verse 2]
He shouted stop but my feet took flight
I raced through the shadows beneath the pale light
A crack rang out and it brushed my arm
But I clenched the bag tight stayed out of harm

[Chorus]
Oh why oh why did I risk it all
Money in hand but I hear the call
My heart is pounding but I can’t turn back
Caught in the thrill on this reckless track

[Verse 3]
The city’s a maze I weave and dive
Adrenaline pumping just trying to survive
Underneath the neon skies I slip away
But the guilt snaps at me like the night to the day

[Bridge]
Counting cash doesn’t numb the pain
The prize feels heavy like a ball and chain
Is this the price for a life lived fast
The future seems doubtful the shadows cast

[Chorus]
Oh why oh why did I risk it all
Money in hand but I hear the call
My heart is pounding but I can’t turn back
Caught in the thrill on this reckless track
