Corduroy
The waiting drove me mad. You're finally here and I'm a mess.
I take your entrance back. Can't let you roam inside my head.
I don't want to take what you can give.
I would rather starve than eat your bread.
I would rather run but I can't walk.
Guess I lie alone just like before.
I'll take the varmints path. Oh

Bomb
With blankness staring back at me
and screaming from the pages
I feel the fear of apathy
gripping me, pushing me
on top of everything
in the corner with a view.
I turn off the fluorescent tubes.
This is the bomb that I've been waiting for (looking for)
You finally lit the fuse
thats in my head.
Yes, you finally lit the fuse
that's in my head.
With nothingness on top of me
and bleeding from my folder,
who can stop the emptiness?
Don't let it take me over.
I've been sinking down
further into nothing.
I've been waiting long,
longer than for some things.
This is the bomb that i've been waiting for (living for)
You finally lit the fuse
that's in my head.
Yes, you finally lit the fuse
that's in my head,
and you finally lit the fuse
that's in my head.
Yes, you finally lit the fuse
that's in my head.

When The Sinner
(m&l - kiske)
Now its time - to shake it all up to be free
Now its time - to make us some room to let us be
Oh, it feels so bad
Yes it feels so bad
When everything good looks so bad
When everything right goes so wrong
I am up - to break il all down whats in my way
I wont stop - until I am where Im gonna stay
No one holds me back
No, no one holds me back
Dont wanna be what Im not
But its gotta be be myself who breaks my neck
I look here and you look there
I know its got to be somewhere
We look around and search around
And walk around and hear around
We keep on looking till we know what for
If you dont know it, I dont know it,
We dont know it, who will know it?
All of us dont know what we sould know
Maybe one day well know
But anyway weve got to make a stop
Over my head -
Look over my head you wont see no holo
Its driving me mad -
I must hold it back inside
When the sinner searchs a sin, its all of us
When we finally search inside, its under us
We keep on looking anyway
If we dont find it who must pay
All Ive ever done Ive done for you
In my mind - the battle goes on till I give up
Will we find - the key of live we once have dropped?
Do you really care?
Tell me you really care?
You may find mr. blame
But the guilt of life burns everywhere
Give me light to see my inside,
Give me light to see my sin
Id never do what I regret
Ive never done anything bad
You must be joking when you point at me!
Hey! dont you blame me! dont you touch me!
Wont you ever leave me be?
I wanna live! dont wanna think!
Why should I give what I can drink?
Man! life is short so I take what I need
Over my head -
Look over my head you wont see no holo
Its driving me mad -
I must hold it back inside
When the sinner searchs a sin, its all of us
When we finally search inside, its under us
We keep on looking anyway
If we dont find it who must pay
All Ive ever done Ive done for you
Pain! I feel inside is such a
Shame! no one fights fair, but whos to
Blame! might be game of life bu it aint over
Now! I walk my way firm any
How! my conscience speaks and there are
Doubts! but nothings sure in life
And it aint over now!
I look here and you look there
I know its got to be somewhere
We look around and search around
And walk around and hear around
We keep on looking till we know what for
If you dont know it, I dont know it,
We dont know it, who will know it?
All of us dont know what we sould know
Maybe one day well know
But anyway weve got to make a stop
Over your head -
Look over your head you wont see no holo
Its driving you mad -
You must hold it back inside
When the sinner searchs a sin, its all of us
When we finally search inside, its under us
We keep on looking anyway
If we dont find it who must pay
All Ive ever done Ive done for you

I seem to roam
And still I seem to roam.
With my way lost.
And the path not on track.
So still I continue to roam.
I've lost the way back home.
My hart is heavy.
My heart is all but very sad.
My head is pounding.
But my hart is broken.
It will not heal.
Becuase I am left to roam.
All I do is roam.
Fighting coping on my own.
I've never felt so alone.
As I still continue to roam.
Facing each day as it comes.
Wishing it was the last.
I still continue to roam.

I Drove
No back seat rider.
Cruising to view a life...
And selecting scenes,
Preferred and/or liked.
I drove.
Cautious.
Even though a few accidents,
Caused me to pay more attention.
Although that was meant.
I ran out of gas.
And stumbled when I pushed to fast.
But I finally found my path identified.
I felt at home!
I knew I had arrived.
I'm glad I took it upon myself...
To learn to drive.
Although my preference is to walk.
Observe.
Touch and enjoy life.
If I had cruised through it...
I would not have known,
How much of it I would have missed.
I drove with hope.
And faith kept me blessed,
To see my life from the driver's seat.
I drove over hills and through darkened valleys.
And there awakened to touch the sky at sunrise.
I drove at midnight.
And the stars would keep my dreams alive.
As obstacles kept my drive alive through thunder.
I drove...
Until I knew and felt the Sun,
Would come to chase rain clouds of storms away!
Although my preference is to walk.
And I do.
If I choose...
Today!

Enough Is Not Enough
Everything has two sides, very plain to see
You walk alone beside the road if youre asking me
Relations are so fragile, easy to destroy
And when the mess is done its all over boy
Money rules and money talks, thats what its all about
Use your head as you got one, please dont scream and shout
Youve got lawyers in your background
We know they really hurt
But in the end you can be sure
They take all you get
Why do you want more than what is yours?
I guess enough is not enough!
Why do you want more than what is yours?
I guess enough is not enough!
A features still unknown, you cant even see
The way that leads you out of here, will bring you back to me
And when you try to sleep at night, therere numbers in your head
Paragraphs and bank accounts, youre drowning in your sweat
Hate will never help you out, where you brought yourself in
Some say you better cool your head, think about begin
To try to find the reasons from where the trouble came
Before you start to suffocate
In your shame
Why do you want more than what is yours?
I guess enough is not enough...

I Wonder Why?
sometimes i wonder why you left me,
sometimes i wonder why you come back and ask for more then usual,
sometimes i wonder why you went to her and left me.
i guess im not the right one
sometimes i lay in my bed and wonder why did u leave me,
sometimes i see you walkin down the hall and i see you and then i dont see myself beside you.
i guess im not the best
sometimes i wonder to myself how can i get you back and see myself walkin down the halls with my hand in yours and my life in a safe manner.
sometimes i just wonder to myself why you have to leave and hurt me so deeply inside and then come back and want more then you never wanted before
sometimes i wonder if your just using me, and you can come back for more
i guess im not the best or the one
sometimes it kills me inside to walk through these halls and see you with her and not with me, we were so perfect together i think.
i guess wondering why will never help to get the answer you have to man upp and ask: (

Escape
As I lose myself inside of a world of my own-
Perhaps a shadow would pass me by,
Or maybe a fawn would wade in the creek
Along side of the path I walk-
I fear other people, this world’s intruders.
I would break away from reality if only
There was a point of no return and escape towards
A place where I can look down
Upon this path I have walked before-
Far away from all of the people who slight, follow and wish me harm-
Evergreens and maple trees-
Wild rabbits, squirrels and wild geese roam about-
These are the ones I call my true friends-
I would dance in the sky if I could-
Lost inside of a world behind the clouds, as
The sun behind me is casting shadows
Upon the path that I am now walking
Shadows that shall transform to dreams-
Dreams of an eternal life inside this world of my own-
Listen- can you hear the calling of the wild?
Listen- can you hear the gentle breeze rustling the leaves within
The litheness of nature surrounding me?
Listen- can you hear the sound of my heart beating amorously as
My own shadow disappears behind myriads of towering oak trees?
Rain could begin to fall and
A storm could approach and now I can say in all honesty it would not matter-
My mind has finally locked the door to reality and I have tossed the key
To the rapids rushing up the creek beside me-I have finally escaped.
If thousands of people were to approach and cross the path upon which I make my way-
I have lost touch with all that is real and in flight of the imagination
There is no turning back- even if it is only with in a dream;
Nobody needs war, cacophony and disaster,
If one can be in union with nature and fantasy that can be found in
One’s own back yard and a gust of wind can carry away that key to the door of
Pain and misfortune. Follow the shadows cast by the sun, and
Never look back, as this world inside of your dreams could last for an eternity…

Walk Like A Man
I got so many thoughts jumping out of my head
And I cant sit still
Im thinking about the universe
Im looking at life on earth
I cant shut the camera shutter
I stare at the clock, the years slip away
And I stay confused
Im dreaming about *la raison dtre (*the reason to be)
Im frightened by the toxic threat
I cant stop the motor running
People saying I should learn some self-control
But I just want to exorcise my soul
And walk like a man, walk like a man
I still feel like a boy and you feel like a girl in my hand
Im gonna walk like a man, walk like a man
Im still waiting on the revelation
Here in never-never land
I got so many things jumpin out of my brain
And I feel so strange
Im crazy about the car I drive
While people struggle just to stay alive
I cant put the two together
I stare in the bathroom mirror at my face
God, I look so pale
Lines crawl across my face
Im runnin in the human race
Yeah, me first, who am I kidding
Where is this peace that comes with age
Someone show me to my cage
Where I can walk like a man, walk like a man
I still feel like a boy
And you feel like a girl in my hand
Im gonna walk like a man, walk like a man
Im still waiting on the revelation
Here in never-never land
(when it finally hits me then)
(and only then, Ill understand)
Waiting for the revolution here
In never-never land
Where is this peace that comes with age
Will somebody take me to the stage
Where I can walk like a man, walk like a man
Walk, walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
I still feel like a boy
And you feel like a girl in my hand
Im gonna walk like a man, walk like a man
Im still waiting on the revelation
Here in never-never land
(when it finally hits me then)
(and only then, Ill understand)
Waiting for the revolution here
In never-never land
Walk like a man

Head Around You
Deep inside your soul there's a hole you don't wanna see
Every single day what you say makes no sense to me
Even though I try I can't get my head around you
Somewhere in the night there's a light in front of me
Heaven up above with the show, abandons me
Even though I try I fall in the river of you
You've managed to bring me down too
All you're faking (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Shows you're aching (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Every single day what you say makes no sense to me
Lettin' you inside, isn't right, don't mess with me
I never really know what's really going on inside you
I can't get my head around you
All you're feeling (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Shows you're breathing (Get Up, Get Up, Get Up)
Deep inside your soul there's a hole you don't wanna see
Covering it up like a cut with the likes of me
You know I've really tried, I can't do anymore about you
The cut's getting deeper (Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh)
The hill's getting steeper (Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh)
I guess I'll never know what's really going on inside you
I can't get my head around you
I can't get my head around you
I can't get my head around you
I can't get my head around you

Tell me something everyone wants to know
I've been sitting here inside thelittle box in my head
Waiting for an answer, waiting to understand
Oh Daisy won't you tell me a fortune
Living out my dreams of sunny days
I've been living there inside the little box in my head
Waiting for an answer, but Daisy she never talks back

What you expect from someone who is named after a cow yeah
Go figure
I won't get an answer from someone who is named after a flower
Go figure
Oh Daisy won't you stop acting stupid
I'm getting sick of your whole attitude
Come and sit with me inside the little box in my head
Waiting for an answer, but Daisy she never talks back

Finally recover
When the mood is right
Looking up into a neon sky
Time the mean takes over
Guess it's been too long
Since the last time that I tried to fly
[Chorus:]
Finally I find
When I lose control
Inside my body crumbles
It's like therapy
For my broken soul
Inside my body crumbles
Only needs a moment
Just to get away
Hope the stress won't mess up every day
No one final question
And I never doubt
Everything is gonna be okay

Insecure would be my sign

Finding Me
I dont think you notice
When you see my face
I guess youre waiting
To spin me around again
Wheels I guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get
But youre coming back again
You dont mean to waste my time
But youre coming back so
Chorus
Dont tell me
How to be
cause I like some suffering
Dont ask me
What I need
Im just fine
Here finding me
Me
Ive already given
Up on getting through
I never question
Who Im talking to
Oh so much for nothing
But nothing means so much
I know its touching
But Ive been out of touch
And its all that I can do
Im a sight for my sore eyes
But its all I am so
Chorus
I dont think you notice
When I cant reach out
I guess youre waiting
On somebody else again
Oh so much for talking
Its all been said before
Im hearing something
But I wish youd just say more
But youre going off again
When I try to just hold on
But youre going off so

Heads
Looking at all of your friends
Wishing you could be like them
Running on glass floors again
Just so you can be knocked down
Swimming in oceans of pain
Trying as it pulls you in
Wrapping your heart up in chains
Cause someone always lets you down
Get inside my head
Get inside my head
Get inside my head
And light it up again
I wonder do you feel the same
Waiting for the days to end
Lying with thoughts that invade
They smother you and everyone
Flying on feelings again
Biting on a poison tounge
Climbing up mountains of pain
Just so you can be knocked down
Get inside my head
Get inside my head
Get inside my head
And light it up again
Get inside my head
Get inside my head
Get inside my head

After All
This is the end
together we walk away
time finally giving us the answer
to a question so many times asked
thought it would be the other way around
guess their was no need to pretend
After all of the heartache
that filled inside of me
with so much of this frustration
after all of the broken promises
we did'nt have to make
after all those sweet kisses
I tasted on your lips
did'nt think it would be my heart
you would break
that would fade away forever
But now only time can mend
something that seemed so right
trying to erase those memories
I have to forget
as we walk our own path
like fools on sinking ships

Sonnet 12
How can you second guess me.
You can't feel what I feel inside.
You can only throw shadows you see.
But you'll never know the tears I cry.
Open the door never to look back again,
The frown on your face with mean stare.
I can take no more it's finally the end.
Take advantage of a heart that truly cared.
There is no need for words to now state,
On I go to my very own journey I roam.
A few plans in my mind come what may.
But this is more much more then you've shown!
I will do it my way and I will pay the price.
There I will settle at last and start my life.

The Train Poem For You
if i were to write a poem for you
it should not be sad,
i guess,
it must be something like a train
you are inside it
and you look out to the window
and the destination is getting near
and the train stops and then
you see the man waiting and then surprised
he sees you
he waving his hand
happy
that finally you have arrived
finally
for him.

Carolea
She came to the coast from the show me state
With her daddys blue eyes and her mamas blind hate
Guess she didnt know much but she knew the rules
What she needed to learn, she would find in l.a.
Not back in that school
Didnt wanna read about it
Guess she wanted to see
Carolea, shes carolea
Yeah, yeah, never quite sure what she wanted to be
Just a little girl alone in a big bad place
With a devious mind and a beautiful face
Ever since she was a baby she learned how to play
Wanted money in her hands from the easiest way
All her friends said, stop girl, you cant pay the price
But the hard way out dont appeal to the beast inside
She dont wanna hear about the better life
Guess shes ready to be
Hey, carolea
She never tells the truth to the folks back east
Truth about the drugs and the men she gets paid to please
Well they dont know
Yeah, they dont see
Yeah, that finally now after all these years
Shes let the beast inside roam free

invite us all to a fatal dance Such a man and

I know that look I know that face I'd better get

Untanglin My Mind
I guess youre glad to see Im finally leaving
I know things for you will change now for the good
But its all that I can do to pack my suitcase
And walk away from you the way I should
And I cant seem to find the voice of reason
Everything seems upside down and right side wrong
While a part of me is here and wont like leaving
The rest of me the best of me is gone
And Im sure no one will wonder where Ive gone to
But if anyone should ask from time to time
Tell them that you finally drove me crazy
And Im somewhere untanglin my mind
Well tell em I wont be riding Ill be walking
cause I dont think a crazy man should drive
Anyway the car belongs to you now
Along with any part of me thats still alive
But theres really not much left you could hold on to
And if you did it wouldnt last here anyway
It would head to where the rest of me rolled on to
So even if I wanted to I couldnt stay
Repeat chorus
And Im somewhere untanglin my mind
