Stating It Simply.. So, You'll Understand
It isn't always me..
But this is your flawed method of communication
I told you it's confusing..
I am not the one
Telling you I'm longing for you
If you notice, If you'll bother to recall
The few times I've communicated
There's a pattern
As for never going home again,
Don't I know it..
I lost my home at twenty six
It was devastating
But,
I picked myself up
Mended myself
And, everything since
Has been cake..
I've been trying to tell you
Not everything is about you
I write to express myself
But,
For you to take it all so personally..
I was here long before you found me
I tried to go away
And,
Your response was
'What happened...You'
I don't know what's going on with you
Change of heart, change of mind,
But
The LAST thing I would do
Is hold this..
Whatever it was
Against you..
We both participated
To an extent
And, you have to admit I wasn't the one who started it
I don't even know how I let you in
I'm pretty good at keeping my walls up
Oh, that's right
You researched me
'All Quite on the Western Front'.. Indeed
But, I don't think I've done anything but carry myself with decorum
If I hadn't, by now, you'd know where my birth mark is
As for everything else
LIKE I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU
NO Worries
However, for appearance sake
All I ask
Is we continue to act like friends
You do what you need to do
I can't believe that you would think I would impose myself on you,
Seriously?
And,
You think I have a big head? ? ?
I'm hoping this clarifies things for you
And, you can breathe
And, stop freaking out, or whatever it is your doing
You forget.. I understand
I can LOL..'Never Go Home Again'
I'm the one who wrote it
I'm the one with the minor in English
So,
No need to beat me over the head with it
The only thing that pi**es me off,
Is you would think I would be that desperate
That, I couldn't let it go
Seriously?
If you recall..I was the one who stopped all correspondence
You were the one with the curiosity
So,
I guess this time it's better
Because it's on your terms..
Anyway,
Good luck with everything.
Peace.

Never Change
Someone's always tellin' me I'm no good
well I don't care what you say
someone's always givin' me a hard time
well I live day to day
someone's always puting me in my place
like I don't know where I am
so I'll just sit here in the corner
without any
direction
Maybe it's it's all in my head
I think that it's something something you said
I understand that some things will
never change
never change
Someone's always kickin' me to the curb
well it's grindin' off my face
someone's always pushing me to the side
like I'm standing in the way
someone's always getting up in my face
like I don't know who I am
so once again i'm in the corner
without any
direction
Maybe it's it's all in my head
I think that it's something something you said
I understand that some things will
never change
Somebody's always out to get me
somebody's always tryin' to kill me
understand some things will
never change
Why did you have to go and change
couldn't you just have stayed the same
why did you have to go and say
Maybe it's it's all in my head
I think that it's something something you said
understand that some things will
never change
never change
Somebody's always out to get me
somebody's always tryin' to kill me
understand some things will never change
Why did you have to go and change
couldn't you just have stayed the same
why did you have to go and say
understand some things don't change
Why did you have to go and change
couldn't you just have stayed the same
why did you have to go and say
understand some things don't change
Never change
some things never change
some things never change

Slugs and Snails and Homelovers' Tales
You asked me for a poem about home and I remembered
that millions of years ago there was plenty of food for all
in the Garden of Eden and slugs
were well supplied with greenery and all was one big happy family
until slugs found that other species found them tasty
chocolate jellies or unjust desserts especially when after
a good night out they were, well, sluggish about getting home
and the sun came out and gulp quick as a slug of Jack
but spotting one night or was it day, a battered caravan
serai, it occurred that a portable home would be a good thing
to evolute. Became snails. Just took time.
Poetic point of this is for there is a point, that
human beings are much the same, there's the bricks and mortar thing
we call home but really home is
in the head or heart, we carry it with us, it's the place we go when
there's no other place to go.
And next time you feel a bit sluggish
about going to work, or like a snail unwillingly to school
you'll have to admit that Evolution
does a goddamned good job, a home in your backpack
beats commuting to work any day. Respect.

We Had It All
I can hear the wind a blowin in my mind
Just the way it use to sound through the georgia pines
You were always there to answer when Id call
You and me, we had it all
Remember how I use to touch your hair
Reaching for the feeling that was always there
You were the best thing in my life, I can recall
You and me, we had it all
I know that we can never live those times again
But I let my dreams take me back to where weve been
And I stay there with you just as long as I can
Oh it was so good
It was so good
It was so good when you were my man
But Ill never stop believing in your smile
Even though you didnt stay, it was all worth while
You were the best thing in my life I can recall
You and me, we had it all
I know that we could never get that far again
So I let these memories take me on back to where weve been
And I stay there with you just as long as I can
Oh it was so good, it really was
It was so good, oh oh
It was so good when you were my man
You were the best thing in my life I can recall
You and me, we had it all

Sometimes
Sometimes..
I wish I would have met you in a different time, a different place
Sometimes..
I wish you really knew how I felt
Sometimes..
I wish you could just read my mind
Sometimes..
I wish things were different
Sometimes..
I wish I had told you how I feel
Sometimes..
I wish I had let you in
Sometimes..
I wish you could feel how I feel
Sometimes..
I wish you had tried harder
Sometimes..
I wish you wouldn't have given up
Sometimes..
I wish you would just be straight with me
Sometimes..
I wish we had a different method of communication
Sometimes..
I misunderstand what you are trying to say
Sometimes..
I over react
Sometimes..
I am so utterly confused
Sometimes..
I'm so frustrated with you
Sometimes
I wish you didn't mean as much to me as you do
Sometimes
I wonder what my life would be like
If I had never met you..
Because
Difficult as it is my friend,
I hope we can remain
Good friends
Sometimes
I wonder if it means as much to you
Sometimes
I push you away
Sometimes
I wish we could just fight
Sometimes
I wonder what making up would be like with you
Sometimes
Your methods of communication or the lack there of
Leave me alone with my thoughts
And, that's just not good
Sometimes
Sometimes
I'm amazed by you
Sometimes
I'm glad it's you
Sometimes
A lot of the time
I can't help myself
I think of you
Sometimes
I write poems, like this
Sometimes
I think you know
Sometimes
I wish..
It's just
Sometimes
Many times
I wish you wouldn't hold your self back
Many times
I wish you would say...something
Many times
I wish I could go back in time
Many times
I wish I would have said yes for all the times I said I couldn't
Many times
I wish you would just make me
Tell you
What you already know
Some times I wish you knew
How many times a day
I think of you.

Happiness Alone
=========================================================================
I think I'll go back down to New Orleans
Try to bury my travelin' bone
Unpredictable me, like I swore I would be
Nothing's ever written in stone
There's a knock on her door, is she here anymore
I guess me and the neighbors will see
If the one thing that I couldn't do without her
She couldn't do without me
Could I leave her behind, go on losin' my mind
While the good times continue to roll
With this time on my hands, I can change all my plans
And it really wouldn't bother a soul
I can make all the rounds, paint all the towns
Do all that and more on my own
But a man can't survive on happiness alone
Take a good look around, this is New Orleans
A free wheeler's got to feel right at home
But it's a hell of a leap, whether shallow or deep
That old river's gonna keep movin' on
Like that muddy Mississippi, she keeps pullin' me under
When you're in it, nothin' ever seems clear
I could stand on the bank and just toss in my line
But there's way too many fish around here
Could I leave 'em behind for the one on the line
Or are the good times still gonna roll
And with this time on my hands, I can change all my plans
And it really wouldn't bother a soul
I can make all the rounds, paint all the towns
Do all that and more on my own
But a man can't survive on happiness alone

Home Is Not Where The Heart Lies
Home is not where the heart lies.
Home is where there are too many sins to name.
Home is where I cry too many times.
Home has no meaning.
Home is where all of my woes lie.
Home has no love for me.
Home makes me sad.
Home I cannot stand.
Home is where I get picked on most.
Home is where I hate most.
Home I wish would disappear.
Home is only adding to more of my troubles.
Home is where all my family hates me.
Home is where my sister won’t leave me alone.
Home is where my step father won’t stop picking on me.
Home is where my mum won’t stop babying me.
Home is no longer home.
Home has too many things to think about.
Home has too many too many troubles.
Home is where I do secrets no-one knows about.
Home is where everyone lies.
Home is not where the heart lies.

Goin Home
You think I could be the one to look inside your mind
I dont think well have the time, so let us get in line
Another town another bed, another thing to go
By now I learned to take it cool, but I dont wanna know
My head is empty, all the stories that Ive known Ive told
The situation I escaped from, now it looks like gold
Anyway and anyhow we did it, it was good
But now I take the time to think bout evrything I should
cause after this Im gone, the show is done
No other town or bed that lies ahead
Ill go home to what I know
Ill go home, home to you
By the time that you think bout it twice no spotlight makes you stay
By the time that you feel you dont know, you have to go
The plane is ready in my head, so many things to do
A few more hours till its over I reach out for you
A kind of peace inside is growing, thinking bout the shows
Until the next time Ill be so much better, yes I know
Now this is it Im gone, the show is done
No other town or bed that lies ahead
Ill go home to what I know
Ill go home, home to you
Ill go home. . .

No Reason To Change
(troy seals/mentor williams)
I know a man we call him poor boy jones
Hes never been a 100 miles from home
Hes got a pretty good farm
And a level head
A heart of gold
No satelite dish for his tv set
And he aint on lie with the internet
He says guitar music entertains us here
And it sounds real good to the untrained ear
And I cant find a rason to echange
More of this and more of that
Has never been my game
The way Ive got it figured out
I aint missed a thing
And I cant find a reason to change
Some people like to fly around first class
But a greyhound bus goes pretty dang fast
Been a while lot of times when time were lean
A big night out was a dairy queen
He says all my children believe in god
They can hold their own
They can hold a job
Theres a whole lot of color in the human race
And loving one another makes a better place
And I cant find a rason to echange
More of this and more of that
Has never been my game
The way Ive got it figured out
I aint missed a thing
And I cant find a reason to change
No, I cant find a reason to change

Tonight I took a snapshot, guess I got a tender spot
Thatll never change
I got brand new strings, someone waiting in the wings
And thatll never change
And its good to be home tonight
Yeah, its good to be you and me
I got nowhere to go after the show
But thats all right, yeah thats all right by me
No cop no stop cruising to the corner shop
Thatll never change
Park near the backstage pass a lot of underage
Thatll never change
And its good to be home tonight
Yeah, its good to be guaranteed
Theres nowhere to go after the show
But thats all right, yeah thats all right by me
And i, I dont think you understand
I really didnt get a wristband
But could you let me in cause Im with the band
And its good to be home tonight
Yeah, its good to be guaranteed
I got a place to crash after the bash
Its called home tonight and thats all right by me
And all the kids sing boy we dont like what you became
Since you made it well it isnt the same
But I guess thats really typical of fame

You Were The Adult, I Was Just A Kid
you had control,
you made me feel special,
but something wasn't right,
questions were floating around,
of why i did the things i did,
the more there was,
the more secretive you became,
told me we couldn't continue,
if my parents found out,
but it didn't feel right,
you told me my parent would think i was lying,
guess what?
they did,
i created a war,
things gotten hard,
it was easy for me to admit i was lying,
than for ppl to question my judgement,
i was a kid,
you had a edge,
kids lie, easy out,
you made me depend on you,
and for what?
what did you ever do to me?
besides take advanage and kick me to the side,
you hurted me, in ways i couldn't understand,
until now, you coward,
couldn't admit to your actions,
because you,
know they were wrong,
and now becuz of you,
i understand why i don't trust,
it was one thing you took from me when i was young.

Skater Boy
He was a boy
She was a girl
Can i make it any more obvious
He was a punk
She did ballet
What more can i say
He wanted her
She'd never tell secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends
Stuck up their nose
They had a problem with his baggy clothes
He was a skater boy
She said see you later boy
He wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face
But her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to earth
5 years from now
She sits at home
Feeding the baby she's all alone
She turns on tv
Guess who she sees
Skater boy rockin up MTV
She calls up her friends
They already know
And they've all got
Tickets to see his show
She tags along
Stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down
He was a skater boy
She said see you later boy
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a super star
Slamming on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
He was a skater boy
She said see you later boy
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a super star
Slamming on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
Sorry girl but you missed out
Well tough luck that boy's mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see

Im A Liar
Maybe I told you right from the start
You can have me
But you cant have my heart
Its easy enough to say but I couldnt care less
Ya I mighta told you you were on my mind
Guess I talked a pretty good line
But hey I can talk all day
But I just cant confess
That Im a liar
Im a victim of desire
Im a moth into the fire
Im over my head - forget what I said
Tell ya Im a liar
Im just walking on the wire
I couldnt get much higher
Im over my head - forget what I said
Baby Im a liar
When I told you I was hard to pin down
Ya know I was just messin around
Guess you know bynow thats just my way
And if you want some storeis - well I got a few
But hey - this is the truth I swear to you
How many more times do you want me to say...
If I told ya to go away
Baby you cant believe a thing I say

The Long Way Home
Well I stumbled in the darkness
I'm lost and alone
Though I said I'd go before us
And show the way back home
Is there a light up ahead
I can't hold on very long
Forgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way home
Money's just something you throw
Off the back of a train
Got a headful of lightning
And a hat full of rain
And I know that I said
I'd never do it again
Oh and I love you sweet baby but I always take the long way home
I put food on the table
And roof over your head
But I'd trade it all tomorrow
For The highway instead
Watch your back if I should tell
Youre loves the only thing I've ever known
One thing for sure sweet baby I always take the long way home
You know I love you baby
More than the whole wide world
Im your woman
You know you are my pearl
Let's go out past the party lights
Where we can finally be alone
Come with me and we can take the long way home
Come with me, together we can take the long way home
Come with me, together we can take the long way home

And I recall drinkin wine with one of my friends
Lord, I cant go back again

Am I losin my own way back home
Am I losin a good friend that Ive known
Am I losin wont you tell me how Ive sinned
Why am I losin one of my bets friends
And I recall this friend of mine I knew so well
It goes to show lord you just cant tell
Now my friend wont talk to me let me tell you why
He thinks I ve changed because of a dollar sign
(chorus)
And its so strange when you get just a little money
Your so called friends want to act just a little funny
Theyll blame you
But Im not the one thats here to blame
Its you my friend thats really changed
Its a shame, such a shame
Am I losin once again
Why these things happen, lord I dont understand
But lord it can sure hurt a man
Why my friend wont take me as I am
cause your friend lord is the most important thing

Do The Right Thing
Once you told me you were gonna love me
That it was meant to be and theres no other way
Then came someone showed you more fun
Weve had a good run better think it over
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Hes got a good line, shows you a good time
Did he change your mind guess its your move
Ill lose my pride Id even step aside
Honey you really must decide whos best for you
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Go with your heart and do the right thing

And if you ever need me, you know where Ill be.
So please call home... if you change your mind.
Oh, I dont mind.

But oh, I could not stand the failure.
Before you leave, theres just one thing I must say.
Please call home... if you change your mind.
Oh, I dont mind.

Oh youre lost baby, and I aint funnin.

Going Home (Lyrics)
I'm going home
There I am in my bedroom
I'm safe and snug and snoring
and so glad to be there
I'm going home
None of this ever happened
But God, I really did it
Still nothing has changed
I'm going home
I'm going home
To my own room to all the mess
To all the dirty laundry
It looks so good I don't care
I'm just so glad to be back home
Sweet home
I wonder if anyone missed me
Or have I been gone so long
They thought that I died
How many said I wonder what happened to Alice
How many shrugged or laughed
How many cried
But I don't give a damn
'Cuz I'm going home
I'm going home
To my own room to all the mess
To all the dirty laundry
It looks so good I don't care
I'm just so glad to be back home
I'm going home
Nothing can stop me now
I'm going home
Nothing can stop me now
I'm going home
Nothing can stop me now
I'm going home
Nothing can stop me now
I'm going home
Nothing can stop me now
I'm going home
Nothing can stop me now

Is Rome Not Your Home
Please stop the damage is done
Or do you enjoy this
Is this your idea of fun
I am hanging on to reality by a tread
I cant forget
Your words play over and over in my head
You say you want to come home
What home is no longer rome
Its been eight months and one day
But your still trying to hurt me
With everything you do and dont say
I fought with you for so long
NO NO NO you would say
There is where i dont belong
Its taken all the strength have
No to call you cause you just got mad
Your words leave me alone
But but but is all i could say
But all you would do is hang up the phone
You broke my heart in two
Whos going to love me like i loved you
It can never be the same
Story of our lives baby
We are on different trains
I gave you twenty plus years of loyalty
That ment nothing to you but it did to me
I ask myself why
Told you i was going for good
You wouldnt even say bye
Send me letters saying i love you i want to come home and have a baby
Or is just the way you were feeling at the time maybe
You were only going for a working holiday to italy
But decided to break my heart in sicily
I cant stop you from coming home
So here is home not rome
