Worry Keeps Every Wrinkles
tangle sweat scratches every minutes
facing each direction, without limit
tell the night comes, where hope
stood withstand in the falling
perfume of the day
dried me in the sun, that catches
the humid cool breeze, thou nothing is
gone except the running face down
into the ground where i stand
a little discomfort browse my tired face
looking tame but wild, stubborn yet
calm, watching the horizon with puzzle
eyes telling the whole day to rest

Wild Child
All right, wild child full of grace
Savior of the human race, your cool face
Natural child, terrible child
Not your mothers or your fathers child
Your our child, screamin wild
An ancient lunatic reigns in the trees of the night
Ha, ha, ha, ha
With hunger at her heels, freedom in her eyes
She dances on her knees, pirate prince at her side
Stirrin into a hollow idols eyes
Wild child full of grace, savior of the human race
Your cool face, your cool face, your cool face
Do you remember when we were in africa?

Meeting With The Ghost
tremble with laughter, thou
nervous yet! so happy as the feet and hands
full of sweat engulf the whole flesh
the day is over and the night is too close
the humid feeling adds the color of the night
kept disgusted my waiting the call to take a rest
seems melted like candle, light keeps on
waving until the door close with the cool breeze
touches my skin
something gone in I and something tip toe
my hair, urged to shout for the night talk in my
brain, I hold my hands so tight and whisper to
my little angel to close the door
the clock showers my mess...

Ripper's Hand
palm gird
its direction, pointing neither
straight
nor curve it goes where
it begins and holds
what makes
it fulfill, the night shows no mercy
direction
has nothing to say
and the star above pointless
array even it
catches perfect horizon
in a compass way but still it pushes
no limit
our eyes couldn't see
the ripper's blade
cut with honor
regardless of whose right or wrong;
for sharpen edge
hit the core,
with the guillotine eye feasts
the flesh,
the night whistles the day
of spoilage crate
now take me
where I shall stop; the nail and the
hair has clever to ask,
as the head wants
it to stop, the Ripper's mind always
come
with hands in the top

Stand
Stand in the place where you live
Now face north
Think about direction
Wonder why you havent before
Now stand in the place where you work
Now face west
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you havent before
If you are confused check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
(repeat 1st verse)
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
If wishes were trees the trees would be falling
Listen to reason
Season is calling

If wishes were trees the trees would be falling
Listen to reason

Walking home from town
The sulphur sky stretched from horizon
to horizon above me
without a cloud to be seen
or a speck of a single bird,
just the blazing white-hot sun
frying down in the breathless hot air
while we walked from town,
being without a car
and your iris coloured purple blouse
and denim blue mini skirt
more than suited you
and you looked cool as ice
while the sun was squelching me
and little streams of sweat
was running down my face,
my chest and arms.

Carefree Into A New Day
it`s like running away
like chasing the brightest day
like waking up in your eyes
it`s like a blossoming leaf in may
it`s like never knowing about the past
stepping light and fast
facing that horizon
facing that new place at last
tears burning our eyes like fire
the wind commanding our desires
traveling an upward trail
chasing dreams that`ll never expire
lifting ourselves from the floor
watching the lights shine on the door
running away like if never to return
stripped from worries and naked our soul

Tiptoe in the Sand
arise the shadow
of the night, head forward in the
direction where the sky deem
so bright
remember the sounding wave capture
the shore with silent breeze
looks the face of the blue moon
she waits when
the time hail on the sacred field of the
Cherry Blossom, the
laughter of the bird hear beyond the
night of grandeur spirit
and the sea calm down the roaring
Sea Leon, feasting the
season of summer
life fish the horizon of vertical
sublime of reality, walking in the
clever sands of memory until time comes
beneath the tiptoe feet of water
lower than the eyes that touches
the sediment of change
go never feel the pain, since only
the episode of smile remember
the change, the perfume touches the skin
as you leave this portal of life
say hello and thanks’ comes
once again...

Am I running from myself?
Am I running from myself?
Am I?
Who can tell me whom am I running from?
Is it me who is a villain of my own self?
Or is it a man in the mirror
Am I running from?
A man who is like me
But has no feelings
Who am I running from?
Knowing one or the other day
I have to face the reality
Whom am I running from?
Whom am I running from?
But I am not cheating myself
Am I?
No I’m not
Then why is it
Am I running from myself?
Who can tell me who am I running from?
Does anybody have answer for that?
Whom am I running from?
No! No! No!
Got to solve this puzzle of caves myself
As I have to face the reality one day
Nobody can answer my questions
Then I myself
Have to keep on moving
Solving my problems myself
As to why am I running from myself?
Why am I running from myself?
Know they would talk about it
Day in day out
Who cares!
I have to stop myself
Myself today or tomorrow
Have to get back on track
Coz that is the way I have to be
Have to curb my ways
I know I have to explain myself a lot
Why Am I running from myself?
But I have to curb myself
Why Am I running from myself?
Why Am I running from myself?

Running The Risk
Seeing you, watching you
Watching me
I hold back my emotions
I keep them veiled in secrecy
I cant let go of this thing weve started
Wasnt looking for love
No conspiracy of the broken hearted
I dont know how far to go
Until Im gone, gone, gone
I couldnt see the danger
It was just a little taste of temptation
I could not read the silence
That was written on your face
But here comes that feeling again
And theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Theres nothing more I can say
Im still running the risk of you walking away
Im lost drowning in a sea of emotion
Ive got one simple need
I need you to feel my devotion
I dont know how far to go
Until Im gone, yeah gone
Its a complicated picture
Im all tangled up in temptation
I couldnt read the silence
That was written on your face
But here comes that feeling again
And theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Theres nothing more I can say
Im still running the risk of you walking away
Im running the risk of losing you
Im walking this tightrope
Youre my only hope
Theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Losing you
And theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Theres nothing more I can say
Im still running the risk of you walking away
Im running the risk of losing you
Im walking this tightrope
Darling, youre my only hope
Theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Im running the risk of losing you
Im telling you honey
This heart of mine cant run the risk
Of losing you again
Everything have made you do
Im still running the risk of losing you

Country Sweat
Sweat!
Sweat!
Sweat!
Born for trouble, poised for action
Ready to spring at a moment's notice
Nerves like a trigger, waiting to be pulled
Covered with sweat, it ain't nice
Sweat!
Help me please I'm burning up
I got this fire in my heart
Won't let me sleep, can't concentrate
Even when it's cold I'm dripping sweat
It ain't nice
Sweat!
Rivers running down my back
Makes me slippery, like a fish
If I don't stop, I might drown
Falling down, down, down, down, not dead yet
covered with
Sweat
CHORUS
The cool boys bit the dust
They couldn't take the pressure
The cool girls got knocked up
They only wanted to have fun
(Where did they go?)
They fell in low and suffered
(Where did they go?)
They picked up guns and hammers
(Where did they go?)
Without friction there's no heat
WIthout heat there's no fire
Without fire there's no desire
You're making me hot, hot, hot, hot!
Sweat! Sweat!
Take my baby, Saturday night
It's hundred and ten, it's alright
Close the door to my little room
Starting to sweat, fun starts soon
Sweat!
Principal caught me after school
Gave me hell, called me a fool
Pointed his finger, at my face
Started to sweat all over the place
Flowed like rivers, onto the floor
I can take it, give me some more
Sweat!
War breaks out throughout the land
Dodging bullets in the sand
Enemy's getting much to close
Sun beats down on the back of my neck
Fingers twitchin', covered with sweat
Covered with sweat
CHORUS
Sweat!

Love Kills
I came here for you.
I've watched you for days.
You're everything a man could ever want.
It's not just your face, your figure or your voice.
It's all the things I see in your eyes.
I see a crazy calm.
You're ready to face what you have to face.
But you don't want to face it alone.
She's soft and warm and almost weightless.
Her perfume a sweet promise
that brings tears to my eyes.
I tell her that I'll save her from whatever
she's scared of and take her far, far away.
I tell her I love her.
The silencer makes a whisper of the gunshot.

Give me a Hero!
What is a Fantasy?
What is a Dream?
If they’re as true as they seem
Than can I make this Reality?
As I walk through the narrow stream
Soaked in make believe
My only thought is to yell and scream
To bring the missing piece I need
I need a Hero
Tired of falling for Zero’s
He’s got to be tough
It’s got to be love
Strong enough to protect my soul
I want a Hero
Watching me sleep through my window
He’s got to be smart
Key to my heart
Unable to let me go
Give me a Hero!
Fast as lightning speed
More steady then the breeze
Face so dear that it pains his enemies
In the distance on his noble stead
When I see him I pretend to fall
Making out a scene
He so bravely answers my call
And comes to rescue me
I need a Hero
Tired of falling for Zero’s
He’s got to be tough
It’s got to be love
Strong enough to protect my soul
I want a Hero
Watching me sleep through my window
He’s got to be fast
Worth the time that it lasts
Unable to let me go
I need a Hero!
Trustworthy as knight
Gentleness in his eyes
Through an opponent in just a strike
To him so easy capable of doing it blind
Danger lurks by my side
Catching me so terrified
He hears my panicked cry
And comes to save my life
I need a Hero
Tired of falling for Zero’s
He’s got to be tough
It’s got to be love
Strong enough to protect my soul
I want a Hero
Watching me sleep through my window
He’s got to be smart
Key to my heart
Unable to let me go
Give me a Hero!
Slick as a Scorpio
So unreal, just magical
Frames so powerful
Nothing can stop him where he goes
In my shadow I feel his soul
Assuring I’m safe everywhere I roam
To the stars in his arms, many times we’ve flown
Keeping me warm against the cold
I need a Hero
Tired of falling for Zero’s
He’s got to be tough
It’s got to be love
Strong enough to protect my soul
I want a Hero
Watching me sleep through my window
He’s got to be mine
One of a kind
Telling me that he loves me so
I need a Hero!
I need a Hero
Tired of falling for Zero’s
He’s got to be tough
It’s got to be love
Strong enough to protect my soul
I want a Hero
Watching me sleep through my window
He’s got to be the one
Able to get anything done
Forever attached to my lead rope
Give me a Hero!
I want a Hero!
I need a Hero!
Unable to let me go

Phantom of Tranquility
loaf of tears dropp in the clipping creek of the eye,
wondrous to feel, where a piece of grain falls off
tasted salt pour on the ground
wither on my cheek, dried, wary and exhausted,
clings to be strong, yet! to stand, a splashing sweat
wet my tendering hands, as my soft sobering spirit
call into a deep sleep
swept dear heart, plunder all the pain that hurt,
seems nothing is there to cool, make the whole new
world change its direction, for I come to hold
your tears in my facet heart of vague
distress of fool
let, thou hurt the pain and the grind the grain, take
the sweet lips it returns; confuse yet! accepted for the
right hour has come to my turn, a hope of
naked loose, as I stay my
heart lifted me
nay! I am not forsaken for my soul has stand,
as you can see, and now faith has leads me, to run
on the eve of my climbing dream
I stay
nap dear little heart you’re Safe ……

But I Won't Run
Have To Stare It In The Eye

The World Movement
The world is keep moving
It is moving when seen
But the direction is unpredictable
It keep moving though unseen
Flowing its own rhythm
Though already do something
The unseen hand is running different way
Though try to stand still
The walking feet is marching as fast as wind
The world is keep moving
From one place to another
Never tired, never rest
The world is keep moving
Moving unstoppable
Grinding those who can’t swim, stubborn and arrogant one

By The Ocean (For Dislocated Heart)
I stand by the ocean,
Breathing in the crisp air of night fall,
Watching the moon slipping away,
As the sky melts into the sea;
An endless darkness.
I can feel my mind falling into its depths,
Thinking about every breath I take,
About the world above,
And the world below.
Questions fill my mind,
Questions of life, living, and existence,
Yet still I stand,
Silent and still.
The gentle breeze in the palm trees,
Brushing my hair across my face.
The wind pushes my dress against my legs,
The feeling almost mimicking that of the water.
I can feel the cool spray of the ocean with each wave,
A giant lung breathing the same air as I.
It is a calm entity existing to exist.
A world so unknown and full of wonder,
Yet so simple from above…
I breath a sigh and close my eyes,
The sight of the waves imprinted on my eyelids,
The scent filling my nose and mouth,
The water touching my skin,
The taste of the salt on my tongue,
The repetitive sound of the water endlessly fill my mind.
My feet buried in sand as if to be innocent sand crabs.
A moment so calm and simple,
Yet so meaningful,
If you take the time to experience it,
A moment in which nothing else matters,
Nothing but the water, the sand, and living.
Everything else, like the sky,
Melts away into the sea,
Into the endless dark abyss.
And so I stand,
By the water,
Living and breathing.
If only the world would stop for a moment,
A moment to live and breathe too;
So relaxing and yet so eye opening.
The silence of the night wrapping around me,
The ocean rocking me into sweet oblivion.
Until I have to open my eyes and walk inside,
Back to reality,
But until then,
I'll just stand here,
By the ocean.

Cribbing Dream
when the night always at the height of my
temper, the cool breeze of the shore
hammock my swollen tears
when my days shower its teardrops
falling to the ground, the refreshing smile
of the clouds gallops myself, bringing me
to the calmness of the night
when my lonely memories hold me to
walk beyond the horizon of the meadow, I
kept mesmerizing those funny moment
that I was once lived like a prince in the
crib
when I am at the helm of no where to go
and prostration behold my emotion to
conquer every smile in my heart, I just
smell the best perfume in my pillow,
believing that smooth sleep could ease my
aspiration for a better day to wake
now the sun is near to peep, in the
murmuring clouds of yesterday, there I
find my wife watching my head in her arm
that never fades, like cotton swinging in
the season of free, in the spring waiting to
be gray
raise my dear spirit, the sleep has come to
wake in a dream you seat like me, in your
loving arm only a dearest wife will come
and let you see
solemnly quest that dream dear …….
