Tapping fingers haunt me
Clock hands tick away
Frustration all around me
Conscience begins to sway

Pulse is racing faster
Can't take another minute
Gotta find a way
To make a change or fight it

Go cry me a river
About how you are marred
Cause nobody shivers
And nothing is hard

Lines are getting longer
Messages delayed
Every second's torture
An endless masquerade

Hurry up and wait
You can't escape this fate
I'm waiting for a change
You're driving me insane

Go cry me a river
About how you are marred
Cause nobody shivers
And nothing is hard

Lines are getting longer
Messages delayed
Every second's torture
An endless masquerade

Hurry up and wait
You can't escape this fate
I'm waiting for a change
You're driving me insane

Go cry me a river
About how you are marred
Cause nobody shivers
And nothing is hard

0069 Hurry Up And Wait

~
Welcome to the office,
It's a chill party
Where there's lots to do
If you want to, at least

Breaks are fine
 but if you fall asleep
Ya should go home
 'fore you're in too deep

It's Tuesday
All work no play
When we get home
We'll nap the Sun Away

Take a seat, stand up,
go over there, come back
Chat, sip, work hard
morning munchies, don't slack

We're moving forward
No looking back
With our heads down
We're up to the task
The work's a road
With endless track
We're ripping the air
With a whip like crack

Glazed eyes
On the Screen
Click The Mouse
Type at Speed

Zoned out workers gaze
Drooping eyes watch the sun
Lunch snooze never fades
Finally the day is done

It's Tuesday (Tuesday)
All work no play
When we get home
We nap the Sun Away
Scroll on our phones
'Til hunger's at bay
Then we eat
'Til we drop off the earth's face
~

0070 It's Tuesday

My ritzy shoes on my feet
I be rocking a brand new beat
Feeling pride begin to show
Breath of wind, my cheeks aglow

See an old face down the street
They never saw the real me
Never knew the worth I held
Now I'm shining, you can tell

Watch me strut watch me sway
Living life my own way
Feel the rhythm in my hips
Let the world catch a glimpse

Mistakes of the past behind
My world you don't define
Heart is light soul is free
Look at me just watch and see

Used to be lost now I see
Here's to the real me
Strut my stuff down the road
Pride on me like a shiny coat

Watch me strut watch me sway
Living life my own way
Feel the rhythm in my hips
Let the world catch a glimpse
~

0002 Watch Me Strut

They say to be yourself and yet
Joyous vices they forget
Stay away they warn with ease,
Forgetting we do as we please

Leisure time rarely had
Balancing the good and bad
Tempted by treacherous ways
Enjoying walks on sunlit days

Feeling outside looking in
At people burning from within
Their hardened faces, weary eyes
Tell stories that are no surprise.

Cross my heart
Wont tear apart
This life that we
Share and complete

Everyone seeking their bliss
Each one can take no more of this
Running away to private rooms
Within which they imbibe, subsume

Normal they all seem to be
While tuning out reality
Lost in addiction to themselves
How can it be right that life is hell?

Cross my heart
Wont tear apart
This treasure we
Share and complete

All the joy we seek to find
Leaves a mark upon our mind
We keep weaving through the maze
Trying hard to find our way
~

0003 Lost In Vice

Falling ashes, fading burns,
Light fades and night returns
Cursed words hang in the air
Endarkened love, my heart despairs

Dancing shadows,
fading screams
Tomorrow's never
What we dream

Life's a game with
twists and turns
Peace with you
my heart yearns

Death is Nothing
Life is All
A crying, screaming
Flying ball

There's nothing better than 
to be remiss 
of nothing's gentle 
dying bliss

Injustice stings like icy cold 
Promises not kept but told
No amount of deep regret
Can make the one you love forget

Despair cuts deep like a knife 
But I'm clinging to my life
Through the night and stormy seas
I will rise and find my peace

Death is Nothing
Life is All
A crying, screaming
Flying ball

There's nothing better than 
to be remiss 
of nothing's gentle 
dying bliss

Injustice stings like icy cold 
Promises not kept but told
No amount of deep regret
Can make the one you love forget

Despair cuts deep like a knife 
But I'm clinging to my life
Through the night and stormy seas
I will rise and find my peace

Death is Nothing
Life is All
A crying, screaming
Flying ball

There's nothing better than 
to be remiss 
of nothing's gentle 
dying bliss

0001 To Be Remiss

~
Quiet life I seek so dear
Tea that’s warm and comfort near
Soft bed holds my sleepy dreams
Blankets warm in moonlight’s gleam

Not a mansion grand and tall
Cozy house where stories call
Fireplace glows with ember light
Cat purrs softly every night

Small and cozy home so right
Where love keeps the cold at bay
Hand in hand through every night
In this shelter we will stay

Morning sun a gentle touch
Simple joys mean oh so much
Laughter shared with loving grace
In this quiet sacred space

Small and cozy home so right
Where love keeps the cold at bay
Hand in hand through every night
In this shelter we will stay

Whispers in the calm of night
Warm embrace holds ever tight
Just our hearts in perfect sync
A home where souls can gently think
~

0035 Cozy Life

As we pull the brig ashore
We warn the younger lads
To stick to the little oars
Avoid the lovely lass

Avoid the lovely lass
A lovely lass is she
With shivers a timber
And trembles in the knee

For she's a maiden far too pure
For pirate lad to plunder
or for a sailor to adore
She'd leave you torn asunder

Avoid the lovely lass
A lovely lass is she
With shivers a timber
And trembles in the knee

But there is no point in hiding
We know she makes you swoon
Don't dwell on the shame
just enjoy the next dabloon

She's a busy mistress
with lovers galore
There's never a wanting
In her under drawers
With all that and more
ye' be just another chore

She's a busy mistress
with lovers galore
There's never a wanting
In her under drawers
With all that and more
ye' be just another chore

Avoid the lovely lass
A lovely lass is she
With shivers a timber
And trembles in the knee

And trembles in the knee
And trembles in the knee
And trembles in the knee

073 Leave The Lovely Lass Alone

No one really knows
Everything's a mystery
It all comes and goes
We live out our life's story

It don't take too much to show
That you're part of a community
Though people may come and go
Some grow to be family

To feed the fire of others
Takes away from your whole
So you have to want it
It has to feed your soul

We don't have to fear the curtain
We are all in this bind
Though everything's uncertain
It shouldn't be hard to be kind

If it is hard, keep searching
Not outside but in
No need to keep lurching
One thing ends, new begin

You are not alone
This I swear to you
We're just around the stone
We are here with you

Who are you?
Who do you choose to be?
You can change the truth
Make who you want to see

To feed the fire of others
Takes away from your whole
So you have to want it
It has to feed your soul

All too often
I'm all but blind
To things uncertain
and truths unkind

All too often
We are all blind
To truths uncertain
And our acts unkind

To feed the fire of others
Takes away from your whole
So you have to want it
It has to feed your soul

You are not alone
This I swear to you
We're just around the stone
We are here with you

~

0004 Around the Stone

Gotta take care of this body yeah
Hard to eat drink clean up my space
Everything gathers around me
My room it's like an empty case

Usable space shrinking away
Bare bones of living every day
Hard to keep track of what I need
Gotta make sure to slow my speed

Better to myself oh I will be
Take the time eat and breathe
Better to myself oh you will see
Living right is my key

Can't forget to drink my water
Clean up the mess I let linger
Reclaim my room my living shrine
Turn chaos to something fine

Better to myself oh I will be
Take the time eat and breathe
Better to myself oh you will see
Living right is my key

Step by step I make my way
Every day a brand new day
Treat myself with kindness too
In this life it's all I can do
~

0022 Better To Myself

~

You are in my heart
Never far apart
Though I look away
In my mind you stay

Thinking of you now
Don't know where or how
But your light it shines
Filling up my mind

You lift me up
Your gentle touch
Wish you were with me
Without I'm never free

Morning noon and night
You’re my guiding light
In the darkest days
You’re my only way

Close your eyes and see
What we’re meant to be
Feel our spirits blend
Love will never end

Let me lift you up
Feel my gentle touch
Hope the thought of me
Sets your spirit free

0028 Never Far

Gregory may be slow
On the move, he won't stall
Searching for weeds below
Where no human casts a pall

Cars flashing by gleam bright
As he moves with all his might
Wading through streams grey
Dreaming of a better day

Weed
Weed where do you grow
Humans came and took the best
Hush now, Gregory's woes
There's still hope in this quest

Through the flowers past the hedge
Gregory creeps to the edge
Tree roots now he must pledge
To find a spot that's not a dredge

In the shadow cool and fair
Gregory finds some green rare
Humans must have missed it there
He bites to spite and leaves it bare

A tiny victory has come his way.
Snoring peacefully, he lay.
In one savored patch he'll stay
Until he wakes to a new day.

Through the flowers past the hedge

Sounds of music pound
Flailing arms and many feet
Tracing beats surround
Perched on the edge of my seat

Take my hand
Heart of Gold
Smile twice
And I'll be sold

Heartbeats in the night
Music in the air
Lights shining so bright
Feeling everywhere

Lost in the sound
Where we are found
Breathing in the beat
Hearts in sync we meet

Take my hand
Heart of Gold
Smile twice
And I'll be sold

Feet moving on the floor
Can't stop wanting more
Bass hits like a storm
Love takes its form

I feel the Heartbeat Anthem
Like the rhythm in my veins
This floor keeps me shaking
No longer thoughts on trains

Hands up to the sky
Stars in our eyes
Melody so sweet
Together we repeat

Lost in the sound
Where we are found
Breathing in the beat
Hearts in sync we meet

Heartbeats in the night
Music in the air
Lights shining so bright

This floor keeps me shaking
No longer thoughts on trains

Hands up to the sky
Stars in our eyes
Melody so sweet
Together we repeat

0055 Heartbeat Anthem

Walking down the road at night
Feeling burdened by the sight
Of no neighbor to be found
But I hear a distance sound

Wandering hearts in the dark
Feeling lost but there's a spark
City lights and neon dreams
Life is better than it seems

Children dance, joyous sing
Life sparkles just like a ring
Feet are tapping to the beat
In this rhythm we all meet

Every step a brand new start
Every glance a touch of art
Music loud and voices high
Underneath the velvet sky

Wandering hearts in the dark
Feeling lost but there's a spark
City lights and neon dreams
Life is better than it seems

Moments that are shared
Can never be a waste
If anything a learning
Or lesson about haste

In the chaos we find peace
Every moment's release
Feel the joy that's in the air
In this journey we all share

I can say the words
That fails to make them true
Gripping at my heart
Screaming with inner truth

I can't expect
Others to forgive
When I accept
Loathing and yet live

Shocking news today
I fucking hate myself
I push everyone away
Oh and everything else

Someone makes me stop
And straight to my core delve
I want to scream and stomp
Thus truly see myself

Wanted to give up
Wanted to hate it all
But the lust to live
Pulled me back from the thrall

You can't expect
Others to forgive
When you accept
Loathing and yet live

But the lust to live
Pulled me back from the thrall

You can't to give up
Wanted to hate it all
Not want to hate it all
Pulled me back from the thrall

You can't to give up
Nor am I innocent
I've learned a lot
In all these years spent

Far too angry
Reacting way too fast
Loathing my peers
I don't want this to last

You can't expect
Others to forgive
When you accept
Loathing and yet live

Someone makes me stop
And straight to my core delve
I want to scream and stomp
Thus truly see myself

0081 I'm sorry [Explicit]

I wish I was with you now
But everything's gotten so loud
Inside my head more than without
I think I'm fine, I feel quite proud.

Round and round and round I go
Heart's beat as it takes control
Stripped me down, exposed my soul
Strong and yet vulnerable

You can take me out
Out of all this stress
But you can't take the stress
Outta me no less

A working lad, lady, fellow fair
Shake it out, toss the hair
Believe in yourself and breathe
There is no way but to be

Surrounded by the others
Stressed dads and mothers
Clenching head in pain,
Don't let them your soul drain

You can take me out
Out of all this stress
But you can't take the stress
Outta me no less
I have to find my
Inner Resilience

Twists and turns we make
Taking me away
Memories forsake
We'll forge a better day
Losing sleep and touch
To lack but still have some
In a world so rough
We're grateful for a crumb

As darkness settles on the land
It's as if a giant hand
Pressed all the stress away
Suddenly on pillow I lay

Before my consciousness
Can question the expense
I've worked away the day
My life for life I pay

I have to find my
Inner Resilience
~

0051 My Life For Life

Believe in what's out of sight
You know it from the start
If they don't treat you right
Take care of your heart

Only so much you can give
Live your own life start to live
They can't see your vibrant glow
Time to let the doubt go

Hold your light don't let it bend
Inner flame a guiding friend
Let it shine let it fly
Bright as stars in the sky

Wasted on those who don't see
Your true self's a mystery
They expect but they don't know
How to let their own light show

Hold your light don't let it bend
Inner flame a guiding friend
Let it shine let it fly
Bright as stars in the sky

Hold your light don't let it bend
Inner flame a guiding friend
Let it shine let it fly
Bright as stars in the sky

Love yourself, break the chains!
Embrace the storm after the rain.
Inner vibrance, don't disguise.
Break the darkness like sunrise.
Journey on, find your way
Be the sunlight every day

0005 Out Of Sight

Crawling through the seams
Seeming to come undone
Feeling warm despite dreams
Falling far from being won

Crying out
Falling crown
Lost without
Slowing down

Where does it lead
Where do you go
When you succeed
But fail to grow

Believe the words heard
Carelessly absorb
Leaving undisturbed
Spouts beliefs unformed

Feel the breeze
Let go of fear
If you were to die
Would you want to hear
Screaming seize
Or a wish to sigh

It really doesn't matter,
the money, jobs, or friends
Because it's within your heart
That your chance for peace ends

Where does it lead
Where do you go
When you succeed
But fail to grow

The screaming seize of sorrow
Does not have to be where it ends
Loving now and tomorrow
Is how we treasure time with friends

Crawling through the seams
Seeming to come undone
Feeling worn despite dreams
Fleeting, far from being won

Crying out
Falling crown
Lost without
Slowing down

Where does it lead
Where do you go
When you succeed
But fail to grow

Where does it lead
Where do you go
When you succeed
But fail to grow

Where does it lead
Where do you go
When you succeed
But fail to grow

I have a feeling about tonight
The moonlight on your face
I know, come and go, we'll be alright
We could be any place

Attend the nature sound
Collapse, enjoy the bounds
Moments intense surround
Trail blaze on safe grounds

If no one gives us a fuss
We'll be impetuous
Gone, without a care
We fleet on trails of air!

Jettisoning through the sky
Blazing flame tail trail on high
Relishing the special glow
With thou who you truly know

Precious time filled with wanderlust
Ambitious and gregarious
Skin crawling with thoughts of lust
Depths of the woods, seek we must

Picture perfect molded tight
Ideal image, model, star
No more hiding in the night
It's time you see what we are

Tear the pages start anew
Every color, many hues
Living honest, living true
Plants seeds and grow roots

Cast away the patterned mold
Truth is louder when it's bold
Hearts don't fit in tales so old
Freedom's story to be told

Voices rising from the crowd
Silent whispers growing loud
Script of life we disavow
Proud and true we won't back down

Tear the pages start anew
Every color, many hues
Living honest, living true
Plants seeds and grow roots

Tear the pages start anew
Every color, many hues
Living honest, living true

Judging eyes still filled with love
You crash down from skies above
Needing guidance, lost the way
Hoping dawn breaks through the grey

Take my hands, make me correct
Showering with affection next
As if I learned, but I felt torn
My imagination unborn

Coaching starts within your whole
See yourself to guide my soul,
Heal bitter echoes of the past
Lest generations will they last

Rising tempers, like a raging sea
Casting about, drowning me.
Your anger becomes our fire
Blazing trails of hurt and ire

You never learned to calm the storm
To break the cycle feel reform
Teaching hearts to mend their pain
So we no longer feel the same

I just want to find the ways
It's meant to be used, and play
I am not going to be your dream
It's my footsteps that I deem.

Coaching starts within your whole
See yourself to guide my soul,
Heal bitter echoes of the past
Lest generations will they last

Coaching starts within your whole
See yourself to guide my soul,
Heal bitter echoes of the past
Lest generations will they last

0060 Guide My Soul

DARK pop
~
Me wanting to exist is not about you. 
But you are part of me choosing to stay. 
And I so dearly don't want to hurt you 
that I continue to cling to life, each day.

Yet I don't sleep easy
The life I led is gone
My soul is queasy
Restless through the dawn

Hammering rain drops heal me
Misty wisps of sounds
thudding thrumming through me
Showering my ground

I was bursting with potential
This world has mostly washed away
Still I see what I could have been
And watch the sky as it fades to grey

I never asked to be alive
But here I am all the same
I'd ask you to let me die
But it would be a shame

Yet I don't sleep easy
The life I led is gone
My soul is queasy
Restless through the dawn

I don't want to hurt you
But you can't help me heal
There's nothing not broken
that is mine left to wield.

Did I forget? Will I?
What did I do wrong?
There's nothing to gain
From punishment plight

Did I forget? Will I?
What did I do wrong?
There's nothing to gain
From punishment plight

No world can be cruel
Our hearts can turn black
But we become the fool
If we think we can't lack

You can be better
You can do it right
There's nothing to gain
From punishment plight

No one said it would be easy
Feelings are big and hard
Our guilt makes us queasy
Loathing dropping shards

Lost in the mind
Always in the hearts
Listen to truth
See through the sparks!

You can be better
You can do it right
There's nothing to gain
From punishment plight

Be proud to see the truth
Your sentience is your proof
That you can choose your path
Your fate within your grasp

The world can be cruel
Our hearts can turn black
But we become the fool
If we think we can't lack

There's no one judging you right now
You're here, lost in the sound
Feeling stresses slip away
Stay here and celebrate the day

There's nothing we can do
There's nothing needing to
There's nothing left to plan
We'll swing it when we can

We're strong and we can do
Anything that we need to
But that moment isn't here
We're dancing, in the clear!
We'll forget that we can frown
If we put tomorrow down

Shaking rhythm through the feet
You heart's pulse another beat
Waves of energy surround
Cresting Crashing Up and Down

Forest feathers fleeting flight
Flashing colors in the light
Mushrooms sprouting from below
Careful as you tread, you know!

We're strong and we can do

No need to walk on eggshells
No need to tromp around
Just watch where you are going
And be pleasant in your sound

No need to walk on eggshells
No need to tromp around
Just watch where you are going
And be pleasant in your sound

No need to walk on eggshells
No need to tromp around
Just watch where you are going
And be pleasant in your sound

Talking to someone new, what a delight
Butterflies and staying up at night
But I just want to set things right
I'm not gunna be used for a bite

Treat me like a doll
Get your money's worth
Try me on for size, all
Your rocks off for mirth
I'm not some gullible bimbo
I'm here to play, not for show

I've never been one to be sampled
I hate when they play and leave
I build up momentum
Patience, I'll help you believe

Don't act like me flirting
Makes me then obligated
To help you (gross) get off
As if you've never master baited

Treat me like a doll
Get your money's worth
Try me on for size, all
Your rocks off for mirth
I'm not some gullible bimbo
I'm here to play, not for show

Please stop asking me for nudes
I've got more going on, dudes

I just wanted to show you that I can walk the walk
I've been through life and I've talked the talk
I've done so much and been around the block
But I don't need to know about your special sock

I just want to have fun,
Share it with someone,
Visit each others' nest,
And make a little mess.

Don't treat me like a doll
I'm worth more than my girth
Try to fit my size, all
Your rocks off for mirth
I'm not some gullible bimbo
I'm here to play, not for show

Please stop asking me for nudes
I've got more going on, dudes

I've never been one to be sampled
I hate when they play and leave
I build up momentum
Patience, I'll help you believe

0072 For Mirth

Harvest done, put down tasks
Enjoy the dancing while it lasts
For soon the winter will stay on
We'll wonder if it will ever be gone

Let's dance and rejoice 
Surrender to music's voice
Under the Solstice Moon
Night will not end soon

Celebrate and cheer! (ooh-yeah!)
Laughter rings so clear (Ha-ha-ha!)
Hold your loved ones tight (ooh)
Celebrate the night (horrah!)

Mead there is a plenty
And ale a fellow few
But of the Grog, we dare not say,
Before we speak too soon.

Moonshine bright
Dance is alive
Stars in sight
Feel the drive!
Feel the vibe
Jump and dance
Inner fire thrives
Blissful inner glance

Let's dance and rejoice 
Surrender to music's voice
Here in the Longest night

Here in the Longest night
Where our hearts burn bright

[instrumental requested]

[Reprise]
Mead there is a plenty
And ale a fellow few
But of the Grog, we dare not say,
Before we speak too soon.

Moonshine bright
Dance is alive
Stars in sight
Feel the drive!
Feel the vibe
Jump and dance
Inner fire thrives
Blissful inner glance

Let's dance and rejoice 
Surrender to music's voice
Here in the Longest night

What is it you need to hear
Or that you've heard already,
What's the reason you are here
And why do you feel unsteady?

Lessons from an ancient past
Rules were broken long ago
Use and reuse, make it last
Most tales written fiction oh

Find honor in obligation
A reason in tradition
Believe in manifestation
And look beyond religion

Love thy neighbor
Live and let live
Be Earth's steward
Learn to forgive

The metaphor was very thin
They hoped that we could soak it in
See the forest for the trees
Instead we burn and kill at ease

Joy bereft
And self destruct
Through depths of death
Lost lofts of love

Find honor in obligation
A reason in tradition
Believe in manifestation
And look beyond religion

They look to you
The young and new
Adults define
life in their mind

Intelligence blooms
In presence receipt
Always seeing through
Lies and deceit

They look to you
The young and new
Adults define
life in their mind

Intelligence blooms
In presence receipt
Always seeing through
Lies and deceit

They look to you
The young and new
Adults define
life in their mind

Intelligence blooms
In presence receipt
Always seeing through
Lies in deceit

Patient while the aged recede,
Hopeful parents sowing seeds.
Raising generations new
Who ask "what is there to do?"

Duty is a precious gift
Representing faith in you
Bestowed by ancestors and kin;
Your task you know to be true

THEY LOOK TO
Find honor in obligation
A reason in tradition
Believe in manifestation
And look beyond religion

Light inside
Will always shine
With truth beside
You live in line

Fredrick the goat hides away
Loves to snuggle all day
Can't be crushed in the hay
Brother William leads astray

Troublemakers, wild and free
Tossed among the sheets
Fredrick hides behind the tree
William chases honeybees

Fredrick loves a gentle touch
Snuggles soft not too much
William's laughter like a crutch
Both together that's the clutch

Peek-a-boo behind the barn
Fredrick tries to dodge harm
William sounds the alarm
Hugs for Fredrick is the charm

Sun goes down over the ridge
Two goats playing near the bridge
Fredrick snug under the fridge
William searching like a midge

Fredrick loves a gentle touch
Snuggles soft not too much
William's laughter like a crutch
Both together that's the clutch

Past shadows don't justify
Your dirty hands' strangled cry
Thirsty for a fruitless end
Inside the wind you made and bend

Sovereignty stolen long ago
Choked beliefs are all you know
No more breath left in the cry
Heal and let the darkness die

Your choice to allow others to abuse
you in the past does not excuse
The behavior in the present
Century Twenty Decade second

Their story (oh!)
may try to bind (oh, no!)
Chains of guilt (woah)
we leave behind (yo, ho!)
And thus becomes
what was before
The future's here
now let's explore!

No more silence in our day
We won't let the demons play
Line drawn in the shifting sand
Voices risen fruitless and

Second decade watch it burn
Show them what and let them learn
Forward march with hearts complete
Rise above lies and deceit

Sovereignty stolen long ago
Choked beliefs are all you know
No more breath left in the cry
Heal and let the darkness die

Your choice to allow though
Your dirty hands' strangled cry

No more breath left in the cry

Inside the wind you made and bend
Past shadows don't justify
Your dirty hands' strangled cry

Seeing where we're going
and wondering where we've been
Special pain in knowing
we wait for change to begin

We hear the shadows cry
Tormenting storms within
Heedless still we fly
Into the sun like Icarus

Power disparity
Takes life away from me
An earth we cannot mend
While more chaos they send

Crushing waves won't listen
to your money nor your walls
As rising tides sweep in
Up the death toll crawls

We hear the shadows cry
Tormenting storms within
Heedless still we fly
Into the sun like Icarus

Crushing waves won't listen
to your money nor your walls
As rising tides sweep in
Up the death toll crawls

We hear the shadows cry
Tormenting storms within
Heedless still we fly
Into the sun like Icarus

Crushing waves won't listen
to your money nor your walls
As rising tides sweep in
Up the death toll crawls

We hear the shadows cry
Tormenting storms within
Heedless still we fly

Decades upon decades
Merging to centuries
Since cities were just glades
Since we left sight of trees

We see the patterns plain,
No need for this disguise.
For arrogance so vain
Why you parade in lies

Cross my heart
I'll never want to die
Yet will not hesitate
Given a reason why

A man stood on a stage
and pledged allegiance
To a horror show of 
Genocide and Might
So don't try to assuage
Our cries of malfeasance
When he's breaking laws
In (god damned) plain sight

Never was I 
looking for a reason
Never was I 
looking for a cause
But somehow 
this spoke of treason
And blood on 
the monkey's paw

Cross my heart
That is a reason why
Those not lost
We must get out alive

Cross my heart
I'll never want to die
Yet will not hesitate
Given a reason why

0090 A Reason Why

~

I was told this land
 was a cooking pot,
An abundant bounty 
many hands brought
Every spice a story, 
flavor a thought.
The trouble begins 
when 
hatred is wraught.

We're stirring the pot,
But 
it's boiling too fast.
Kindness we forgot 
to help flavors last.
Of love we have lost
Sight, and maybe reach.
In anger we're tossed.
Can humans make peace?

Was there ever a time 
that we shared a table?
Or were we always just 
strangers, 
our base unstable?

Our heart is 
missing its soul.
Empty plates remind us 
how far we’ve let it go.
The recipe’s in our hands,
The trouble is 
we've let trouble stand.

We're stirring the pot,
But 
it's boiling too fast.
Kindness we forgot 
to help flavors last.
Of love we have lost
Sight, and maybe reach.
In anger we're tossed.
Can humans make peace?

Was there ever a time 
that we shared a table?
Or were we always just 
strangers, 
our base unstable?

The fire we need is 
the warmth of a hand,
But we’re tearing down 
bridges instead of the man
Still I cling to the hope 
for spice in the air,
That one day we'll 
remember simply to care.

We're stirring the pot,
But it's boiling too fast.
Kindness we forgot 
to help flavors last.
Of love we have lost
Sight, and maybe reach.
In anger we're tossed.
Can humans make peace?

0138 Spice In The Air

I thought the ground we walked was free
A promise etched for you and me
But shadows crawl where light should shine
A dream that's cracked with time's decline

Good people fight through the gray
They fight for hope til it fades away
A nation claims its bright
As it robs the world of light

Where's the promise we were sold
The fire fierce
The hearts so bold
Peace
Freedom
Just fleeting flames
Happiness but a hollow name

A paper signed with wasted ink
When freedom continues to shrink
Justice wears a heavy chain
Blind and deaf to cries of pain

The echoes of a sacred creed
Turn hollow when the heart can't bleed
The pillars shake
The walls might fall
Through dust we'll rise and heed the call

A promise we were sold
Denied of hearts so bold
Liberty naught strife
A fleeting flame of life

When hearts turn hollow
When fire grows cold
The turning tides swallow
Evil so bold

Where's the promise, the lie we were sold
We demand you heed the words we were told

Where's the promise we were sold
The fire fierce
The hearts so bold
Peace
Freedom
Just fleeting flames
Happiness but a hollow name

A paper signed with wasted ink
When freedom continues to shrink
Where's the promise, the lie we were sold
We demand you heed the words we were told

A paper signed with wasted ink
When freedom continues to shrink
Where's the promise, the lie we were sold
We demand you heed the words we were told

The sloshing of the seas
Pounding rhythm of our feet
Each heart's pulse another beat
Our perception; haze of heat

Imagine Waves under the prow
Cresting Crashing Up and Down
There are no cares right now
As we dance on upon the bow

Fleeting flashes of color in the light
Rum bottles slosh and slide out of sight
Glancing dashes reflect through the night
Losing ourselves with dark on the bow

Fleeting flashes of color in the light
Rum bottles slosh and slide out of sight
Glancing dashes reflect through the night
Losing ourselves with glancing ray so bright
Reflecting rum bottles with fleeting light

Like the sloshing of the seas
Pounding rhythm of our feet
Each heart's pulse another beat
Our perception; haze of heat

Imagine Waves under the prow
Cresting Crashing Up and Down
There are no cares right now
As we dance upon the bow

Glancing rays so bright
Reflecting rum bottles
With fleeting light

Like the sloshing of the seas
Pounding rhythm of our feet
Each heart's pulse another beat
Our perception; haze of heat

Imagine!
Imagine Waves under the prow
Cresting Crashing Up and Down
There are no cares right now
As we dance upon 
The bow

The bow
Imagine!
The bow
The bow

Imagine Waves under the prow
Cresting Crashing Up and Down
There are no cares right now
As we dance upon the bow

Thunder in my chest 
can't be free
Feel your hand crash
 down on me
Like a storm that 
won't let me be
Come on baby just 
break me completely

Lightnin’ crack 
when you’re near
Burnin’ bright 
and killin' fear
Your love’s 
a violent gear
Turnin' hard 
pullin' me clear

Rock my world 
no mercy please
Take me down
bring me to my knees
Hit like waves
poundin' seas
Rock my world
till it bleeds

Crash and burn
it’s our dance
This ain’t no
soft romance
Every touch 
a second chance
For love’s fire
wild and askance

Don’t hold back
feel it rise
Smokin’ sparks
in your eyes
Bruisin’ love
that never lies
Blazin’ truths
in dark skies

Rock my world
no chains to bind
Show me you
ain't playin' kind
Break me open
make me blind
Rock my world
lose my mind

Are people just fucking dumb?
Did they get dropped on their head?
Did they stop sucking their thumb,
How did they not end up dead?

Or have I lost my mind?
Exhausting and vapid,
Have I stepped out of line?

Downvote dissenters

Sheltered and home safe,
Never had to find out.
Someday in a new place,
They might fuck around.

You're a fool with no course.
Your feelings aren't god-like

You don't know me
yet I want to know you
There's so many
things to say and do

Do you fare
well on this night
I would chance
Your soul is bright
Would you share
A rare delight
Would you dance 
with me tonight

Losing ourselves in

I want to lose myself

Sharing time with you
Like an evening breeze
Washing away the heat
With pleasant tease

Break the boundaries so that we
Can create a whole reality
Chains that held us, shall we
Take back from propriety

Raking my memories
Loving what we made
Hoping, wishing, please,
Let we live to see better days

If I could I'd shoot the breeze
Just to make you smile
If it were possible, I would
Walk or go any mile

Walking between layers 
Fight through the mist
Wishing I could court you
Ask your hobbies, kiss

Break the boundaries so that we
Can create a whole reality
Chains that held us, shall we
Take back from propriety

Raking my memories

Our Reality (2)

0168 Kipper the Cat

Carved into a stone
We must take up space
In order to live
Where else is our place

It takes a village
Oh to survive
It takes a village
On both sides 

In this tethered life,
Burdens Bountiful.
Many hands make light
Commitments communal

So someone said freely
We think that if you ask
If you are a burden
You will just need a task

Individuals
Out for themselves
Can't be considerate
Let alone commit
To taking the time
whether to wait in line
Or to smile and nod
For they are too far gone

It takes a village
To keep moving
It takes a village
to survive
It takes a village
for improving
Costs and benefits
on both sides

So someone said freely
 freely
We think that if you ask
 if you ask
If you are a burden
you
 if you ask
If you are a burden
You will just need a task

It takes a village
to imp
pra- proving
It takes a village
to serve
ve- vive
It takes a village
for improving
Costs and benefits
on both sides

Takes A Village

They walk in circles
 but never see
Blind to the chaos
 they choose to be
Their hands build fires
 they can’t contain
I watch it all and
 feel the strain

They laugh at shadows
 that scream too loud
Dance in the wreckage
Heads unbowed
I reach for words
They slip like sand
A bitter taste I
 can’t withstand

I’m mad
I’m sad
I’m breaking apart
The weight of watching
 tears my heart
They harm
They burn
They won’t refrain
And here I am going
 a little insane

Their echo chambers
A deafening hum
My heart wavers
Their laughs are numb
I feel the dreamers
dying in our young
The least I can do 
is
provide a light 
to some

How do you save what
 won’t be saved
When their own choices
 dig their graves
It’s like a dream that
 twists and falls
A maze of mirrors with
 winding halls

I’m mad
I’m sad
I’m breaking apart
The weight of watching
 tears my heart
They harm
They burn
They won’t refrain
And here I am going a
 little insane

I’m mad
I’m sad
I’m breaking apart
The weight of watching
 tears my heart
They harm
They burn
They won’t refrain
And here I am going a
 little insane

Breaking Apart

· Digital Musician · Performance Artist · Video Creator · 
~Thought of love in my heart~
Bi/NB/Poly/Agnostic
There is beauty in all. I work with AI generated music and art. We create pop, rock, punk, folk, bops, ballads, shanties, bangers, etc. Through it elements of violin, Celtic vibes, jazz, and alternative, as well as influences from electric swing, edm, shoegaze, chill ambient instrumentals, and avoiding constant drum beats.

Generating music may be the new thing, but I feel no lack of authenticity in this. It may not be just my own, but nothing exists without learning from what came before.
