Stuck In Between Disbelief And Denial
A return to relive,
A yesterday gone...
Is not going to 're-happen'.
That change to come,
Has arrived for everyone.
And that which 'is' as it appears,
Is here to stay.
With severe adjustments,
By many to be made.
And...
For those still stuck,
In between disbelief and denial...
Should choose acceptance,
As a long lasting friend.
With plenty time to devote,
To a doubtlessly close relationship.

Recovery
That which occurred in our lives,
Does not return.
The 'now' is to be lived!
And with it lessons learned.
To wish for that which no longer exists,
Implies a resistence to what 'is'...
And the mentality associated with it.
A recovery is done when one moves on.
In acceptance of what has been lived,
Has to be let go...
Since it is gone.
There is nothing from yesterday,
That will be replayed again to stay.
To live life is a forward movement,
It is!
And for many in denial,
They refuse to see it that way.
Insisting on a revisit.
To relive what now isn't for them.
Remaining deluded,
Some do...
To addicting intoxications,
To redo and transfix...
That which has slipped from their grasp.
And traumatically faded away too fast!
Never to make a reappearance as it was.

It Appears To Be That Way
Wait a minute.
Aren't they the same incompetent people,
Expressing with confidence...
Why they have a lack of competence?
'It appears to be that way.'
Is this the change being made,
We all can believe in?
'It appears to be that way.'
Is this the 'light',
Coming to poke holes through the darkness?
'It appears to be that way.'
Is this the rainbow that has come,
After relentless storms of anguish?
'It appears to be that way.'
Have you been affected by total disbelief,
And you are doing the best you can...
To stay on your own two feet.
And my voice you can hear,
But your consciousness has left...
To leave you unsure of your own footsteps?
'It appears to be that way.'
Hang in there.
But just don't stand planted,
To become more twisted by shifting winds.
'What are you saying?
I should be doing something else...
Other than just to hang in there?
With a going to somewhere with purpose? '
It appears to be that way.

You And Adjustment Will Soon Be Introduced
You want a return done to what you miss,
Don't you?
A return to ideals of prosperity.
The kind that dismisses...
Whomever you choose to isolate from your greed.
You want to look down upon others,
To uplift your insecurities.
And a returning back to what you miss...
You feel will accomplish this.
However...
Even if you clicked your heels together three times,
Those scenes will never again for you be replayed.
These days call for adjustments to be made.
And guess what?
You and adjustment will soon be introduced.
And I may be mistakened...
But I see a lifelong relationship developing.
You might be asked for your hand in marriage.
Do you like to ride or be ridden?
Some are not so fortunate...
Especially those expecting to get it both ways!

Utility of life
Why thou devote your time
in cheating and fraudulent work
thou devote your time to the service of mankind
and for creatures of God
Thou devote your time
in chanting the name of thy God
Thou devote your time
in meditation and concentration
why thou waste your time in evil critics
thou devote your time
for good relationship and
worldwide fraternity
why thou waste your time for evil deed
thou devote your time for good deed

I think that the two of them have been doing this for a really long time and it is more like sport. Yes, they would love to find a lasting relationship, but it's not likely to happen the way they are going about it.

Ensuring They Stay In Place
I've learned not to accept,
But return all disagreeable attitudes.
Those tossing about any mood they choose...
May have found that comfortable to do,
When they were children.
But as an adult we should have rules,
We adhere to and follow.
Ensuring they stay in place.
It saves from being regarded a phony.
Or called a two face.
No one gets that close,
I have to publicly disrespect.
Nor do I do my best to get other people,
To choose me over someone else...
As if there's been an announcement made,
Of a popularity contest.
I do not think it necessary,
To lie behind a friend's back. BUT...what 'friend' does that?
And that's probably why I have few of them...
Since deceit and distrust is not where my mind is at.

Don't Get Close
Somebody give me some light
And I punch it into the heart
Somebody show me the end
And I try to push to start
Not trying to figure out
A better way, a better answer
But I keep finding all the problems
I've been looking after
You can't wander through the world
With nothing but a smile
I'll take your tongue for words
And use it to instill denial
Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
Will take you there
Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
Will take you there
Maybe I should look away
Before I ruin this
Maybe I should pick the time
Before I pick the place
Love into war the things that emulate then penalize
But I don't want to go until you want to finalize
Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know!
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
Will take you there
Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
You abstained the part
My vision's all but shot
I have the best confession
Always go for all the lessons
Equations anti-news
Stay out and be a deuce
I didn't want to be
The undeniable so loose so free
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
I see what's in all the conflicts
Constrict just to fit in, squeeze in,
I can insist, closed fist
Remember?!
Remember?!
You take the breath of life
It never made much sense
I have the worst possession
What I won't put soul in session
Old man and be abused
Because this is so confused
I only want to be
Left alone and rot away
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]

It Better End Soon - 4th
Can't stand it no more
The people dying
Crying for help for so many years
But nobody hears
Better end soon my friend
It better end soon my friend
Can't take it no more
The people hating
Hurting their brothers
They don't understand
They can't understand
Better end soon my friend
It better end soon
Hey, everybody
Won't you just look around
Can't anybody see?
Just what's going down
Can't you take the time?
Just to feel
Just to feel what is real
If you do
Then you'll see that we got a raw deal
They're killing everybody
I wish it weren't true
They say we got to make war
Or the economy will fall
But if we don't stop
We won't be around no more
They're ruining this world
For you and me
The big heads of state
Won't let us be free
They made the rules once
But it didn't work out
Now we must try again
Before they kill us off
No more dying!
No more killing
No more dying
No more fighting
We don't want to die
No, we don't want to die
Please let's change it all
Please let's make it all
Good for the present
And better for the future
Let's just love one another
Let's show peace for each other
We can make it happen
Let's just make it happen
We can change this world
Please let's change this world
Please let's make it happen for our children
For our women
Change the world
Please make it happen
Come on
Come on
Please
Come on
It's up to me
It's up to you
So let's do it now
Yeah
Do it now
Can't stand it no more
The people cheating
Burning each other
They know it ain't right
How can it be right
Better end soon my friend
It better end soon my friend

Still In Love
(randy handley)
Because I saw your face
A photograph I had misplaced
Now Im stuck remembering
What can not be replaced
cause I spoke your name
I felt a sudden chill
cause I dream of you
I know I always will
Im still in love
I cant let go
My hearts made up its mind
A long, long time ago
Im still in love
I havent changed
After all Im still in love
cause you were my friend
When no one seemed to care
Now Im stuck remembering
Oh, I do wish that you were here
cause you knew my mind
Life will come apart
Because you showed me
I could make another start
Im still in love
I havent changed
After all Im still in love
If there comes a time
And if you finally feel the way I do
Dont be afraid to call me
And tell me
Im still in love
I cant let go
My hearts made up its mind
Long, long time ago
Im still in love
I will never change
After all Im still in love

Time
Friend, as the moments tick away, we can see the end of another day,
And as time continues marching on, soon we see another year is gone.
Friend, time for no one will stand still, but it continues on by God’s will.
And time each day does not change, for every man it stays the same.
All time by God has one set pace, for every man in this human race.
The only thing that varies friend, is your own beginning and your end,
That single day of your own birth, the very day you arrived on earth.
And the day that you shall depart, from this place you had your start.
At that point again time will be, the same for all throughout eternity.
The length of time you will endure, is the time will call forevermore.
Once in eternity you have a start, you will find that you won’t depart.
Throughout eternity there is no end, this truth is fact for all my friend.
The length of the coming eternity, is the end of any and all similarity.
There is one of two places friend, where in eternity you shall spend.
For when all men from earth depart, they leave with a different heart.
Your time on the earth can not be, compared at all with your eternity.
For when your time on earth is done, you’ll see darkness or The Son.
Friend, Hell is that special place, so men don’t have to see God’s face.
Since the darkness was their delight, God made for them eternal night.
If Christ has saved you from the night, you will enter His Eternal Light.
For those who do believe in Christ, for them, God offers Eternal Life.
All other men upon their last breath, shall descend into eternal death.
For unbelievers there is no return, from the fire that will eternally burn.
In the time you have left on earth, you need to experience a new birth.
For when your time does pass away, where you go you will go to stay.
Lets Get Together Again
Lets get together again. all you need is here to stay. lets
Get together again. forget about your yesterdays.
Its been a very long long time. since I last remember
Seeing you. I hope you write and say youre fine. did you
Ever sit and dream. of the time when we would meet
Again? its very hard now youre not mine.
The phones right next to you. and you know just what to
Do. just pick it up. and call my name.
Lets get together again. all you need is here to stay. lets
Get together again. forget about your yesterday.
Tomorrows just a step away. til I come running back to
You. I hope you stay right by my side. I thought Id never
See. my angel back here next to me. promise me that you
Wont hide.
The phones right next to you. and you know just what to
Do. just pick it up. and call my name.
Lets get together again. all you need is here to stay. lets
Get together again. forget about your yesterday.
And you know there aint much time. Im so alone. please
Come home. Im on my own.
Lets get together again. all you need is here to stay. lets
Get together again. forget about your yesterday.
Lets get together again. all you need is here to stay. lets
Get together again. forget about your yesterday.
Lets get together again. all you need is here to stay. lets
Get together again. forget about your yesterday.

RELATIONSHIPS- A Bitter Sweat Feeling
I'm finally in a relationship,
And more so I'm being advised to quit.
I question the motives of our relationship,
It just made me realized it wasn't what I had expected.
In a relationship there's no more I's it's two,
When decisions are made I can't think about myself, I include you.
In a relationship feeling better off single,
I'm stuck in a web and can't get untangled.
The constant arguing and accusations,
I am tired.
When he says it wasn't intentional,
Once too many times it becomes unbearable.
It's like you want me to hate you.
Actually I hate the things you do.
Deciphering what's hold me.
It's LOVE, an unknown and unseen entity.

Time's Stay
Time O Time, please stay
because I've many things to say
to my love, who is also going away
to spend 'you' on her, as I always fail
My parents gave plenty
to nurture me gently
Time O Time, please stay
so that I can also 'repay'
Time O Time, please don't go
stay with me, I've many at home
I am indispensable to them
without me they would be too slow
Time O Time, please stay with me
in everything which I may do
let me spend you on
let everything be perfect,
please stay, stay for long.

Life Lived Moves On
People can choose to stay stuck in them,
If they want to.
But life lived moves on!
For those who prove they can,
And do!
Move.
On!
People can choose to stay stuck in them,
If they want to.
But life lived moves on!
For those who prove they can,
And do!
Move.
On!
People can choose to stay stuck in them,
If they want to.
But life lived moves on!
For those who prove they can,
And do!

Bouldering that overflowing dike of tears,
They may cry.
Heal.
And let those emotions subside!
But do not collect over the years,
As souvenirs awarded for their sorrows.

Our Love Is Here To Stay
-intro-
The more I read the papers, the less I comprehend.
The world and all its capers and how it all will end.
Nothing seems to be lasting, but that isnt our affair.
Weve got something permanent,
I mean in the way we care.
-refrain-
Its very clear our love is here to stay.
Not for a year, but ever and a day.
The radio and the telephone.
And the movies that we know.
May just be passing fancies and in time may go.
But, oh my dear, our love is here to stay.
Together were going a long, long way.
In time the rockies may crumble,
Gibraltar may tumble, theyre only made of clay.
But our love is here to stay.
