Jeneen Terrana and Black Bright - By Your Side

Lyrics:
The ones outside seem dreary
Weary mailmen run their routes
Funnels pour cement
Through each bedroom window
Kids in a tunnel
Listen for the shouting

We can really make this simple
Drown out every noise
Walk on through this hazy temple
Follow the sound of my shaking voice

And with the whip of the Devil's tongue
She hope he don't bite
Scratching at clouds
Touching the sky
Stuck in a well
Feels weak, but clings to life

Send him down below with the rest of them
A tiny beating heart and a melting grin
he'll find a dirty bin
Get nice and settled in
And there he will thaw
Until you're ready for him

We can really make this simple
Don't get turned around
Stay here and wait for a signal
Follow my voice

Through the amniotic amazon
Will you please join me
We will drown

Lyrics:

He used to say I had lemon lips,
Hard to resist my bitter kiss,
Spent hours staring into my eyes,
Didn't bother to say goodbye.

He put our love on trial,
Black-out drinking was his style,
The Maker's Mark was the judge,
I chaperoned, but held no grudge.

Our love was like a broken vase,
The one he threw at my face,
Tore off my panties that very night,
And I never felt more alive.

Chorus:

We could really hurt each other, but...
We had enough passion to start the place on fire,
The love we made drowned me in desire.
If I had known the fortune I found in you,
I would have thought twice, before I was untrue.

Invited out for drinks with a friend,
So much more, I can't pretend,
Nothing waiting at home for me,
Only silence and misery.

Made a mistake, I can't take it back,
Thought he had everything that you lack,
Now I can see I was such a fool,
Threw it away and broke the rule.

You're gone forever I can't amend,
Left this world, we weren't even friends,
Wish we could talk one more time,
Only see you in my mind.

Repeat Chorus

I wish I could call you, but you can't pick up,
Your house key still hangs by the key to my truck,
I see all your paintings every time that I wake up,
Still wear all the t-shirts that you didn't pack up.

Repeat Chorus

He used to say I had lemon lips,
Hard to resist my bitter kiss,
Spent hours staring into my eyes, 
Never got (didn't bother) to say goodbye...

This is one of our live impros between poetry readings,  in the main station hall in my city. 
We played as musical commentators, related to the just read poem.
Claudia likes the inclined, crooked and impro stuff as much as I do, she is the SoundSister...here we go...

Salvation Be Mine

Peace baby peace,
Talk of such release,
Sent my heart into the dark, I'm begging baby please,
Oh Lord I needed peace.

Peace don't come for a time,
When it does it will be fine,
There's a dawn over Jordan,
Worry left behind,
Salvation Be Mine.

Sleep darling sleep,
I could not repeat,
I ran around, I drank to drown,
I fell on bended knee,
Oh Lord I needed sleep.

Sleep don't come for a time,
When it does it will be fine,
There's a dawn over Jordan,
Worry left behind,
Salvation Be Mine.

Oh Lord I needed peace to fall across my mind,
All the time.

So dream baby dream,
Till they burst at the seam,
Dream big just like a kid,
Throw your heart on the line for a kiss,
A small dream is only a wish.

Dreams don't come for a while,
When they do they come in style,
There's a dawn over Jordan,
Worry left behind,
Salvation Be Mine.

Salvation Be Mine

--------------------------------------------------------
I'm in a shadow
I'm in your deep blue sea
I dive to be in your darkness
It surrounds me
And we keep sinking further
Like we don't need to breathe

I'm in a shadow
I'm in your deep blue sea
I can't seem to get away

This vision of him

Remember way back in Highschool?

Thanks to:

Remember way back in Highschool
When we thought that we were cool
Never dreamed that it would last long
While I dreamed awhile with you
We would run through the halls
Throw our books at the walls
and I do it all for you
I'll never forget smoking cheap cigarettes
to look cool, in front of you

Later on we took the long way home
So I could walk awhile with you
dreamed of where we'd be in 5 longs years
and I'd dream those dreams with you
I was cool I was calm I was Hip I was suave
when I told you it was you
I'll never forget all those things that I said
to look cool infront of you

Cause Darling I loved you
Back in Highschool

When I think about those Highschool years
I can't help but think of you
Those days are gone but it makes me smile

Highschool
