Ad Infinitum

You've taught me well
Of this dog-eats-dog world

Like a caper in the dark
Circumnavigating the edges
Mocking life, mocking death
You are a monolith
In your own fluent fashion
So I left a hole in the bastion
For your salient maneuvers

Whilst the world gyrated
Into their farcical charades
You dragged off a sullen grudge
Against their noncommittal whims
And consolidated, unknowingly,
What was debilitated from me -
A sense of sanity, of likeness

How you trespassed the apathy
And the obstinate discrepancy
And turned it inside out -
The self incarceration siphoning the soul
Divulged the profound lamentations
That infested the wounded wile

How you walked through fire
To fortify the weak constitutions
But when my sole was charred
And the ember was gone
There was not a soul
To paint the colors of vindication

How you shove the cobwebs
Where the gnats putrefy suspended
Only to make bigger rooms
And bigger snares for bigger preys
And what occurred in midair
Was now all forgotten

You've taught me well
In both extremities and poles
Like icicles of flame
You will be infinite
In somber brawls
And inebriated ways
Like this two-way soliloquy
That will tarnish once more
With misconstrued vagaries

This defeated bliss
Is forever
And I cannot rival against
Its immortality.

My World

Your stuck on a chain
And your toeing a lie
Seems like everytime that you catch up
You only fall behind
And your trapped inside this world you made yourself
but that's not the world I live in
this is not the life for me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me
that's not the world I live in
this is not the life for me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me
There is always someone to blame
for the things you do yourself
you think that everything that's going wrong
is because of someone else
And your trapped inside this world you made yourself
that's not the world I live in
this is not the life for me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me
it's not the world I live in
this is not the life for me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me [2x]
cause i'm lonely outside and i'll look on in
And that's not the world I live in
this is not the life for me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me
it's not the world I live in
this is not the life for me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me
cause my world is bigger than your problems
and it's bigger than me...

Small Victories!

small minds, small dreams,
small prayers, small God.
small thoughts, small answers,
to questions not small!

playing the race game,
the salvation game,
the mine and yours game,
the right and wrong game.

like cattle herded
unknowingly to slaughter.
every body a ticket,
to pay the fare.

bigger picture, bigger concepts,
bigger than i and me!
bigger risk, bigger world,
bigger choices, small victories.

Dog-Eats-Dog

I derided the moue
And spitefully broke
A peal of pertinacious fangs
Against the ethereal haunts
With pernicious angst
I scathed the morose
In this dog-eats-dog world
Fogged by a woebegone turpitude
I vied to defile the fragments
With my own opposing
But in the end of the day
Behind the hills of secrecy
And the imposition of obduracy
I am but a dry bone
Brittle by the obtuse feints
That you've taught me then
As an infinite company
And taught me now
As an archenemy -
You've taught me well
We are mongers
Defeated by farcical charades
And lack of humility
Devoured by self-centeredness
And inflicted wounds
Aggravated by
The resistance to assuage.

Bigger Picture

Im starting to see a bigger picture
Im beginning to colour it in
Im starting to see a bigger picture
Im beginning to colour it in
My soul the sky, my heart a sun
My mind a world - my only one
My thoughts the people, the world around
My dreams the kings - or the clowns
Im starting to see a bigger picture
Im beginning to colour it in
Im starting to see a bigger picture
Im beginning to colour it in
The continents and the seven oceans
Bound the range of my emotions
My time is long but not forever
My moods are the changing wind and weather
Im starting to see a bigger picture
Im beginning to colour it in
Im starting to see a bigger picture
Im beginning to colour it in
Colour it in !
Colour it in !

Dynomite Satchel Of Pain

Lets write a song, baby
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
Now sit your ass in the chair and I'll tell you my name,
My daddy always told me that he didn't wanna hear me complain,
That's why my balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
I hope this song will explain,
Just why my balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
Well I was born in the back of a truck on the fourth of july,
I was raised by a Portuguese ninja who taught me to fly,
A business man pulled over and he asked if I needed a ride,
I had to eat that business man for lunch cos I wanted his tie,
Damn I look good in that tie,
Air born Portuguese ninja eats man for his tie,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My daddy always told me that he didn't wanna hear me complain,
That's why my balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain,
My balls are bigger than a dynamite satchel of pain.

The Little Box

The little box gets her first teeth
And her little length
Little width little emptiness
And all the rest she has

The little box continues growing
The cupboard that she was inside
Is now inside her

And she grows bigger bigger bigger
Now the room is inside her
And the house and the city and the earth
And the world she was in before

The little box remembers her childhood
And by a great longing
She becomes a little box again

Now in the little box
You have the whole world in miniature
You can easily put in a pocket
Easily steal it lose it

Take care of the little box

The Bigger The Fool

Hey, doesn't it still look easy as it did to you
Hey, wasn't it true, after all
I couldn't help myself, girl
And i can't blame you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
Living on old illusions, and some make believe
That mattered to me, most of all
Closing my eyes to changes i've refused to see
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
Somewhere in your future, on the far side of your world
You might read my writing on the wall
And think of the easy dreamer who believed in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall.
If someday you wake up in a world that's turned on you
And nobody answers when you call
Hey, think of the easy dreamer who believes in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
Think of the crazy dreamer who believes in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall.

Fundamental of Liar Chapter VII: Snowball

Liar says little lie
Little lie creates a lie
A lie creates some other lie
Some other lie creates bigger lie
Bigger lie becomes bigger bigger lie
Bigger bigger lie becomes very big lie
Very big lie becomes the biggest lie
The biggest lie finally eats the liar

Bigger Than Elvis

Come, lets talk just you & me
For once just let me be.
The little boy you used to know.
Relive that summers bliss.
Cause they came no more like this.
Those were the days,
The days when love was still in style.
All I ever dreamed Id be
Is what you are to me.
Bigger than elvis.
And for all the missing years,
A memory reappears.
Bigger than elvis.
I saw you on tv.
The king, you were to me.
Could you feel me watching you?
At times my heart got mad,
Only heros are allowed
To run free, that they could come back inside of me.
All I ever dreamed Id be,
Is what you are to me.
Bigger than elvis.
And for all the missing years,
A memory reappears.
Bigger than elvis.
We know the sadness of goodbyes
Must be the one thats bringing tears to your childs eyes.
Oh, from now on Ill walk with you
Making music like you do.
Would you believe I always knew?
You were never hard to take
In some mysterious way
Bigger than elvis
And for all the missing years
Your memory reappears
Bigger than elvis.
Now Ive found the missing years,
Forgotten all my tears.
Ive found the missing years.

Make the Money

Sitting at home can bring a new pleasure,
Sizes of the rooms can bring enjoyment.
Sit by and watch television, listen to radio,
Do not involve with the outside world.

The world is just bigger than your house,
It is explored by the big men, who are serving themselves.
They are bigger and better than the rest,
To name a few could mean calamity.

Smaller than the mightiness of God is the ordinary man,
As if the big men are worth too much splendour,
As if the nature of the smaller man in his home is only father,
Like the money has churned from money, not from God.

Does it grow on trees in the back garden?
Do you see the leaves wilting and dying?
Then if they do, you are like them too.
You will have to be bigger and better, so that you are too big.

Life indoors can be rewarding,
But outside you must explore,
To be ranked as a money-maker.

Cataloguing Nights

Inside an impassable night for a diffident boy;
Juxtaposed the pillar of his bed he coiled
From watching the final grain hastily dissipate
Fore infinity resurged his room, his subterfuge vacate
Vigorously, he confounds with a luxuriant tongue
Painting visions, unknowing his heart was wrung
For he was a boy withholding utopian eyes
Vulnerable from lies and metaphysically cries
With every plot his nights would conspire
He held onto profanity and blindly cross the wire
As prayers depart his sagacious lips
Departing to escape and stain like thieves
With lethargic eyes he would acquaint to rile
Inside a night of feigned lies and sedative denials.

Inside another eve for a reticent boy;
He perched on the hourglass, his soul was cloyed
As he lit a cigarette and taught himself to smoke
And hoped that the rings would seize the thoughts to choke
So the ethereal train would leave his downtrodden bed
But it marauded his wounded chest instead
With gasping breaths, he dragged a joint for help
Whilst the smoke abandon with an ounce of himself
The defiled body would rise like a swelling river
From the cold tiles; a mocking mirror
Of a boy with tales of hope and lamentations
And it would dawn on him that this is an initiation
Towards the endless nights of dreadful soliloquy
An immense struggle beneath the grasp of a rubber tree

Inside an epicurean night for a reclusive man;
Nibbling on a deadlock scheme, my, isn't it fun?
As he sunk himself beneath these ignoble sheets
And made a valley from a cigarette kiss
He sated himself with shabby fantasies and amities
From prattling pills of Mescaline and its severities
The endeavor banished all ghastly thoughts
But stirred sensations analogous to a garrote
Emotions riveted at the bosom of his soul
Swelling, bursting, decaying inside a hole
Inside that night, the rain poured harder
As he regressed in his bed of deep somber
"Nothing ever left, for nothing really came."
And he surmised; "I missed the kick-off of the game."

Inside a wan evening for a despondent soul;
He sulked into blasé still trying to cajole
For questions, for answers, for riddles of impasse
Induced with potions, sullied in the fray
The thoughts had left, the emotions depleted
Now he is benumbed as emptiness gyrated
An empty repose is not an auspicious replacement
He stifled, he stiffened, he sought for help
He cried and wailed and threw everything on his shelf
His drab eyes learned to utter a prayer again
His aching wounds, foreboding subsistence, colorized and darkened
But will anyone penetrate his endless nights of gloom?
And will anyone care to find a corpse in his room?

Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others

From the ice-age to the dole-age
There is but one concern
I have just discovered :
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls mothers are bigger than
Other girls mothers
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls mothers are bigger than
Other girls mothers
As anthony said to cleopatra
As he opened a crate of ale :
Oh, I say :
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls mothers are bigger than
Other girls mothers
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls are bigger than others
Some girls mothers are bigger than
Other girls mothers
Send me the pillow ...
The one that you dream on ...
Send me the pillow ...
The one that you dream on ...
And Ill send you mine

~The Next Generation~

its quiet all around
not a soul to be found
a hush
and
a whisper
fall upon these halls
no more
bouncing basket balls

just silence
this doesn't make sense
I feel so
stressed
and
tense
school is supposed
to be loud
with trophies in front
showing there proud

but this school is dark
it has left its mark
a single tiger
at the front of school
the kids used to think
that it was cool

but they grew up
and left the halls cold
they got bigger and bigger
and soon became old
leaving the school
broken down
waiting
for the next generation

Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself

When you only win your own feeling
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself
When you only suffer with your pain
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself
When you only chase your happiness
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself
When you only protect your safety
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself
When you only want your truth
Your love for me is not bigger than your love to yourself

Forming/ Hot Chocolate Boy

Hes always waiting
Gotta make the move to tell her
Hot chocolate boy
Hes never met one
Hot chocolate wet one
Hot chocolate boy
Deep, sweet, and bitter
Spoon it out at a place for breakfast
Hot chocolate boy
Hot, frosty, creamy
He was only dreaming
Hold me down, hold me up
Tell them that Im your gun
Pull my trigger
Im bigger than
Im bigger than you
[? ]

Pull them down, hold me up
Tell them that Im your gun
Pull my trigger, Im bigger than
Im bigger than, Im bigger than

Cartoon World

(eric carmen/john wesley harding)
I like the colors
I like the way they move
Theyre all so brilliantly realized
They just could not be improved
I love the way the sex is so overt
I love the way the violence doesnt hurt
Its a cartoon world
Its exactly as it seems
And its bigger than life
And better than all your dreams
Its a cartoon world
Its a safer place to be
And its better than real
A perfect facsimile
Its a cartoon world
I like the things their saying
I like the way theyre said
I like to change the channels
While Im lying in my bed
From the commercial to the anchorman
Theyve done research on my attention span
Its a cartoon world
Its exactly as it seems
And its smaller than life
And better than all your dreams
Its a cartoon world
Its a safer place to be
And its better than real
And bigger than you and me
And the stars are brighter
Theyve got more charisma
And more style than you and me
I watch the news on tv
It doesnt mean a thing to me
Whats a little ethnic cleansing?
Thats the way its always been
I was excited when the war began
Now Ive got gameboy, Im a happy man
Its a cartoon world
Its exactly as it seems
And its bigger than life
And better than all your dreams
Its a cartoon world
Its a safer place to be
And its better than real
A perfect facsimile
Its a cartoon world
Its a cartoon world
Its a cartoon world
Its a cartoon world
Its a cartoon world
Its a cartoon world

So Im keepin heaven on my mind

But I know this isnt just a fairy tale
Its a one in a million paradise
I know love is the light in your eyes

And its bigger than the both of us
Deeper than the sea

Our souls are dancin
Bigger than the both of us

Breakdown

Don’t think
Don’t feel
This dark dream
Is slowly becoming real

I want to run
And literally scream
This anxiety
Is swallowing inside

Do something
Make it quick
The hole is getting bigger
Waiting my inevitable fall

I need distraction
And something to hold on
This soul is shaking bad
And gradually fade
