I know you need druggin’
I know you need huggin’
I know you need lovin’ but
That’s all you get.

I know you want meanin’ and
I know you’re not grievin’ and
I know you’re not leavin’ but
That’s all you get.

I know that I’m bleedin’
I know that I’m feelin’
There’s more to believe in but
That’s all I get.

The Habit

That's All you Get

This love’s for you
This love’s for you
This love’s for you
(And you receiving my love is still the way to my heart)

The love is for you.
Could it possibly be you got lovin’ for me?
What is it you seek?  Is it us you see (see)?
Any way that you would want it I would…
try to twist and bend.  Can’t change who I am.
Hope the love I receive will be the love that I send.
Next move will depend on whether or not that
You would want my lovin’.

Is that the love of a friend?  Is that the love of a wife?
Well, I could love you to death
I’d rather love you to life.
Give you space you need.  Open up and
Let your (my) soul breathe.

Live backwards is evil.  To live is to love.
Let’s live and love together 
stay connected as one till love’s last breath.
Every time I step can tell I’m still in love by notes and pictures I kept.
Every page, chapter, or close of a book
And hope I can’t be blamed for taking one last look.

So, when the skies go black to grey to blue
I still stay true.
Keep a space up in my heart because…

This love’s for you
This love’s for you
This love’s for you
(And you receiving my love is still the way to my heart)

This Love's for You

More than I did, but less than I should.
More than I did, but less than I should.
New sets of lies will do me no good.
More than I did but less than I should

More or less.

Giving a piece of yourself for free,
Under a pall so no one will see.
Out in the light I bet you would.
More than I did but less than I should.

More or less.

Each sun that sets makes it more true
I should have been nicer to you.
I’d make amends if only I could.
More than I did but less than I should.
Having some fun just you and me
Good for the soul obviously.
Little too much means I am no good.
Less than I did but more than I should.

Moreorless

The Dusty Road out of Town

I’m just keepin’ it real, this is how you make me feel,
Crazy
(so insane)

So crazy insane about you, can’t live without you, I need it all.
Not just a little, stop short in the middle, here’s my number girl.  Give me a call.
Here, take a sample we can set an example, show these people how not to fall.
Set the roof on fire, reach way way higher, you and me girl standin’ tall.
Place you at the top, I will never ever stop, show the world you my baby doll.
One step at a time, let’s keep it in line, before we walk we gots to crawl.
Now take my hand, let’s conquer this land, together tearin’ down the wall.
This is how you make me feel, just keepin’ it real, now can I have it all?

I’m just keepin’ it real, this is how you make me feel,
Crazy
(so insane)

Crazy

Pathetic and Faux-netic in a room of hypocritic
You are rarely sympathetic ‘cept to that which is systemic.
I don’t claim to be prophetic or myopic or genetically superior
Inferior
It’s clear you were misled.
And I’m emotional, devotional, and sometimes a polemic.
Some might call me a heretic, intellectually athletic.
Can’t forget the times I bled. It wasn’t always due to credit.
I’ve moved on but it’s not gone
I am bigger than my debt.
I’ve let go.

Let go!

When the words drip from your tongue
I can’t believe it.  I’m all done.
Any sign of a smile or breath
I know that the truth finds death.

When you were a simple line at first
But you rotted over an open Earth.
Friday came around once in a while, but it
Corrupted and became so vile.

Let go!

Let Go

Red Sky Night

If you haven't said it in-person, it remains unsaid.
