There is in most passions a shrinking away from ourselves. The passionate pursuer has all the earmarks of a fugitive.

There's no doubt about it, earmarks are not very popular. There are good earmarks and bad earmarks. The good earmarks are the ones I get for my district.

One road for the fugitive and a hundred for the pursuer.
Our Pursuer
Who holds men by the throat?
When the bells of dawn ring
And pulls them out of the covers
From the warmth and comfort of sleep
Into the cold night
He comes running- our pursuer
Hidden in the darkness of fear
Buried in the shadows of anxiety
And hence, men arise to take off.
Into the uncertain future.
Our pursuer-fate
Who’ll cover our caskets one day
When we finally say ‘it’s finished’
He pulls the curtains and the drama is finished.
Into the pit of evil, we make haste
Because our pursuer is the trapper
He is bold and daring
As if nothing else is of concern
but our pursuer.

Fugitive of failure
Fugitive not what i planned for,
failure, nothing is better than death,
how can i die when life haven't interpret
my full meaning.
Fugitive Fugitive my crime has not called
for arrest,
my day is still young, not even failure
can stop me.
Still you call me fugitive,
success is my only witness, my success
will labor out my freedom,
failure keep coming after me, yet success
is telling me to standstill.
When will all this end' in this 'uncalled for state'.
The night keep looking at me without telling me to run or stand, yet the sun ask me to keep running until i reach the point
of success.
Fugitive of failure not anymore.

Passions Deep
Your passion burns so very deep,
Like secret dreams when you sleep,
The passion burns so deep inside,
Such deep desires that you hide,
What can I do, what can I say?
Let your passion come out and play.
Like a wild, caged up beast,
Your passions need to be released,
Will it take a kiss to your lips?
Or the gentle touch of my fingertips,
I want you in my arms to hold,
As your passions start to unfold.
You've hid your passion for too long,
Now in my arms is where you belong,
As we hold each other close and tight,
And enter into this passionate night,
Something that is so long overdue,
Time to release the passionate you.

Shrinking Universe
Cast your eye tears on to me
And I'll show you what you really need
Give too much attention
And I'll reflect your imperfections
Can't you see it's over
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe
Purposeless survival
Now there's nothing left to die for
So don't struggle to recognize
Now the cruelly heart-felt suicide
Can't you see it's over
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe
Can't you see it's over
Because you're the god of a shrinking universe

The Fugitive
On a cold october morning
As frost lay on the ground
Waiting to make my move I made no sound
Waiting for the mist
To cover all around
I carefully picked my time then took the wall
Im sick and tired of running
The hunger and the pain
A stop to look about then off again
Being at the wrong place
And at the wrong time
Suspected of a hit that was my crime
I am a fugitive being hunted down like game
I am a fugitive but Ive got to clear my name
Even if I find them
And get to clear my name
I know that things can never be the same
But if I ever proof
My innocence some day
Ive got to get them all to make them pay
I am a fugitive being hunted down like game
I am a fugitive but Ive got to clear my name

Kill Me Gently (Acrostic)
Kill me with soft words of love
Irritate both fate and death,
Love Crimson, by killing all she is,
Let love be, but hate with all her passions.
Martyr that of thyne heart
Eat away at every scarred part.
Gorge on the feast I have provided
Eat like a king, you shall behead me the same,
Not all can be loved, but your passionate kill shows the most passion,
Toy with me, my death is evident, yet theres no murder
Let me die quickly as to not suffer your passions anymore,
You finally did it, you killed me with your nothings.

When We Oooo
Can't get enough of you
When we oooo
Hello my love
Wish you were here
So many things in my heart
That I'd like to share
A few warm thoughts
A subtle smile
Our conversation through silence
Could last all night
At ease my mind
To see your face
Those sexy eyes could calm
A heart of rage
You speak my name
I touch your hand
The chemistry only true love could understand
You've opened my soul to happiness
And shown me new ways of love
Smooth is life's travels with you beside me
I'll never walk alone
Can't get enough of you
When we oooo
Can't get enough of you
When we oooo
Can't get enough of you
You give of you
All you can give
You've taught me love laugh
you've taught me to live
At rainbow's end
That pot of gold
Can't hold a lie to you
'cause you're my heart and soul
Such passionate love that we make
In tune our bodies are one
When loving's done the passions still strong
'cause spiritually we are as one
Can't get enough of you
When we oooo
Can't get enough of you
When we oooo

When I oooo

Modernity is the transitory, the fugitive, the contingent, which make up one half of art, the other being the eternal and the immutable. This transitory fugitive element, which is constantly changing, must not be despised or neglected.

Revolution
Tonight, it's a revolution
Tonight, we're going to war
Tonight, you better make a decision
Tonight, we're going to war
I'm not a patriot
I'm not illegal
I'm not a fugitive
I'm an American
I'm an American
I think you need some education
I think you need some thought control
Tonight, there is a situation
Tonight, it's the end of the world
Tonight, we'll take control of the nation
Tonight, we take control of the world
I'm not a patriot
I'm not illegal
I'm not a fugitive

I'm not a patriot
I'm not illegal
I'm not a fugitive

Come let's crush these weak defenses
Lets all lose our self-control
We will fight the false pretenses
And break the arm that has a hold
Come let's crush the opposition
And let us not do what we're told
We can kill the competition
And break the face off of the mold
I'm not a patriot
I'm not illegal
I'm not a fugitive
I'm an American
I'm an American
I'm not a patriot
I'm not illegal
I'm not a fugitive
