The Unforgiven

New blood joins this earth
and quikly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules
with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on he's known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away
what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub thee unforgiven
they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me
what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub the unforgiven
you labeled me
I'll label you
so I dub the unforgiven

My 1st little car

Look there I see it

I seen it there just in sight

I felt the butterflies it felt so right

I felt the connection

I knew it was the perfect selection

My 1st little car


It was green and eye calling

The price cost my thoughts nothing

It stood out from the rest of the place

I knew that we would be together

I sat init and felt a warm embrace

My 1st little car


It called me over and invited me in

To take a drive and have our journey begin

It gleamed and shined it was nearly perfection

I drove for a while following the directions

Took it back to the garage and put down my deposit

My 1st little car

Unforgiven 2

Lay beside me, tell me what they've done
Speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's open if you're true
If you can understand the me, than I can understand the you.
Lay beside me, under wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this pair of lives
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there?, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still, yes she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there!
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there?, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
(Solo)
Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes now I see it!
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've

The Unforgiven Hunt

I shouldn't be telling you this
No one should be telling you this, but
Only a few people even know
About the time of the Unforgiven Hunt-
We are on the Unforgiven Hunt, so I should tell you
I can't even tell you
What the Hunt is about
And why it is called just that-
The Hunt
But I just told you
That the Hunt is called the Hunt
For a reason-
So now I should tell you the whole story
How we came to this point
Why our features stand out
In the whole world, all the countries
First, we were like all the others
Down-to-earth, forgiving, out loud
Sharing all our secrets
But now the Hunt people regret
That we came this far
We came this far, we broke our friendship apart
Now we are on the Unforgiven Hunt
The time of the Hunt started at the time of the Hunt
No one really knows
When it was, what it was that unbalanced the scale
Of life and death-
But we are on the Unforgiven Hunt
We started the Unforgiven Hunt by saying,
"We have to increase our lifestyle, then we'll stop"
But over time, it grew to be our hobby
Beating other countries
In machines, in factories and greed
In food, in water and high standards
In shelter, in organizing, in need
We are still on the Unforgiven Hunt

“The Sea Had Shown Me Mercy”

“The sea had shown me mercy”-
I confessed to the prosy desert island beach.
Beneath my proud feet a sea star felt like a leech

My pyretic body and tanned skin felt more marooned!
And my pushy prosaic imagination had been swooned.
“The sea had shown me mercy”-

to the provocative palm trees I repeatedly said.
My prurient love fancied my lover with a mermaid.
The sea had shown me mercy.

My fake puritanical heart hid into the puny sand dune caves.
My putrid mind hated the laughing children of the waves.
The sea had shown me mercy.

The sea had shown me mercy
before the sun burnt my fatal desire to feel
that the precious glimmering ocean waters were real.

Let It Be Known, Let This Be Shown

I am wild
I am crazy
But to you
I am your lady

Let this be known
Let this be shown

I am more than meets the eye
Imp not gone sit back and let the world fly
My feelings for you will never die


Let this be known
Let this be shown

Momma didn't raise any fool
I might seem bad
But I follow the rules

Let this be known
Let this be shown


My body is not your toy
I want a man not a boy
I am a woman not a little girl

Let this be known
Let this be shown

Emblem

Somehow those whose world is Hades
care for long gone years in times
to end, while thoughts trail to shades
but then found homes once lived primes
and there shined loved rooms call them
best kept heart's gifts looked from gods
pays of light shown wraiths' emblem
In there moved their friends of odds

Exuberance

When I feel and know it,
Only then will it exist.
A happiness felt and within me shown...
With an exuberance I can't resist.

Some wish for objects,
To shine with a light that bright.
Something to feed someone else's appetite.
But I have prayed all my life,
To express and highlight...
How wonderful my life is now.
How wonderful it is to be blessed with it.

When I feel and know it,
Only then will it exist.
A happiness felt and within me shown...
With an exuberance I can't resist.

Pretty Vision

I saw a vision
Little boy
You covered up your own insights
But I may have held your hand
Or seen the ghost you tried to fight
Oh a vision
Little boy
You strayed down to find the clowns
Oh and when I wrote these lines for you
Not, not one of them was found
Blame the circus and the clowns
Before you blame yourself
Cause when your greatest needs go unforgiven
And your gifts go unreceived
Little boy
Man of need
Who could know that the road would fall
Not me not one of us
That surrounds your golden walls
So now blame the circus and the clowns
Before you blame yourself
Cause all your greatest needs go unforgiven
All your gifts go unreceived
Who could know of the fall
Who could slow the speed
Who could hold your hand
We all laughed and thought you were so free
Vision boy
Man of need
Oh do the monkeys get you down
Oh they promise you the dance of life
Complete with laughters crown
Little boy
Man of need
Did you find the freak show and a crowd
I said cut the canvas on the tent
Oh we were all innocent
Blame the circus and the clowns
Before you blame yourself
When your greatest needs go unforgiven
And your gifts go unreceived
Oh your greatest needs go unforgiven
And your gifts they go unreceived
Little boy
Man of need

Unforgiven Unforgotten....

she will not be talking about me
i understand
i am the unforgiven
i will be the most patient sinner
she will be the most
living memory
she is unforgotten

her hair as black as ever
no age, no time whitens it
i am getting older
and in pain
soon, i will embrace
another truth
a must
i must learn to forget
even though
perhaps i am still
unforgiven

my silence in ages
must appease the storms

If Pride Was Felt Inside To Feel

If pride was felt inside to feel it...
It would be shown.
And to all would be known.

If pride was felt with intent and integrity,
Few would be envious.
And who would then express jealousy.

But pride and identity,
Is as distant as an orphan...
Seeking purpose and a home,
Alone.
To roam.
Feeling disconnected.
Leaving one who travels...
Wishing this corrected.

If pride was felt inside to feel it...
It would be shown.
And to all would be known.
But...
One who travels,
Wishing to connect...
Feels as distant as an orphan,
Alone.
To roam!
And...
Feeling disconnected.
Hoping one day,
Pride will be displayed and known.

Forsaken Attraction

Tried and found guilty.
Convicted of my mistakes.
Trying to serve my time.
And doing whatever it takes.

I just want to break out.
I just want to break free.
I know I did you wrong.
But you just won’t let it be.

Unforgiven,
I’m forsaken.
Thought you were different.
But I was mistaken.

You’re just like the others.
An eye for an eye.
Now I am going to give up.
Lord knows I tried.

You say I don’t get it.
What I give, you just take.
I just get what you give.
And it sure ain’t a break.

You act like the one.
And think there’s no other.
No one else just like you.
I just want a lover.

Give the others your best.
And give me your worst.
To them you’re an option.
To me you were first.

I’ve chased the wind for too long.
And I’ve chased it alone.
Now the love that I’ll give you.
Is the love that you’ve shown.

Stop all your talking.
Put your words into action.
You have proved that your love.
Was just merely attraction.

Ten Days

Each day that passes by, I know
I can't have back again.
So I must comfort myself it seems
as if each day were ten.

I'd repeat the ones that meant so much
over and over and then
discard the ones that brought me tears,
scratch them out with my pen.

Now which are the days that I'd have become ten?
The one where I first met you.
The ones when I held my brand new sons,
The ones when the sun shined through,
The ones when I felt God's presence
in all that I would do.
And the one that will come someday for me,
the one where I'll say adieu.

Star In The Sky

I just saw the star
That shined so bright
It was this star
That caught my eye
When i saw the star
In the night sky
That reminded me of you
The love of my life
So pure and true
For you are the one
That shined bright
The light star in the night

My Saving Grace

Ive still got a lot to learn
But, at least I know where I can turn
When Im in my times of need
Just as long
(as I know all things are possible)
Just as long as I believe
Ive loved a lot, hurt a lot
Been burned a lot in my life and times
Spent precious years wrapped up in fear
With no end in sight
Until my saving grace shined on me
Until my saving grace set me free
Giving me peace
Giving me strength when id
Almost lost it all
Catching my every fall
I still exist because you keep me safe
I found my saving grace within you
Yes, Ive been bruised
Grew up confused
Been destitute
Ive seen life from many sides
Been stigmatized
Been black and white
Felt inferior inside
Until my saving grace shined on me
Until my saving grace set me free
Giving me peace
Giving me strength when id
Almost lost it all
Catching my every fall
I still exist because you keep me safe
I found my saving grace within you
And the bountiful things that you do
Lord thank you
For delivering me
And giving me peace
Giving me strength
Giving me hope when id
Almost lost it all
Catching my every fall
I still exist because you keep me safe
Always my saving grace
Pulls me through
I found my saving grace within you
(yes you are - youre my every, everything)
Within you...
(only, only you)
Yes lord
(only you)
My saving grace lord is
You

Everything But Me

Ashes falling on the ground
Winds that blow a hollow sound
Once standing taller still
Now falling by your will
How many times the sun has shown
On everything but me

Rain that falls upon my heart
Washes away the endings start
I try to sing aloud but
My voice is lost within the crowd
How many times the sun has shown
On everything but me

Every little thing is free
Every little moment sings
Every little ray of sunshine
Every little broken heart of mine
How many times the sun has shown
On everything but me

Blinded by the snow today
My true friend grey skies comes to play
Lost inside my forest desire
Feeling this wild funeral pyre
How many times the sun has shown
On everything but me

Every little thing is free
Every little moment sings
Every little ray of sunshine
Every little broken heart of mine
How many times the sun has shown
On everything but me
Every little thing is free
Every little moment sings
Every little ray of sunshine
Every little broken heart of mine
How many times the sun has shown
On everything but me

Young

Is this where my mind was thrown into the abyss?
Haunted so young touched by deaths kiss.
Made to feel so guilty and cheap.
Like nothing more than a toy to keep.
Shown the door of such horrors galore,
to ruin my life through extreme mental strife.
Defiled and admonished till I no longer felt consious,
of true human desire that gives us lifes fire.
I once was so young but quickly turned old.
As the cold devils hand reached forth and took hold.
I cannot tell thee how much I do need,
to express my love and desire like a true human being.

Unforgiven

I kept up
With the prophecy you spoke
I kept up with the message inside
Lost sight of the irony
Of twisted faith
Lost sight of my soul and its void
Think I'm unforgiven to this world
Took a chance at deceiving myself
To share in the consequence of lies
Childish with my
Reasoning and pride
Godless to the extent that I died
Think I'm unforgiven to this world
Think I'm unforgiven
Step inside the light and see the fear
Of God burn inside of me
The gold was put to flame
To kill

Someone's Heart

sounds never heard, words never spoken, eyes that never see, feeling never felt, someone's heart forever melts,

love never returned, passion never givin, pleasure never shown, something someone's heart will never know,

tears always felt, pain always known, sorrow that never goes away, for someone's heart that knows it very well, someone's heart is broken, someone's heart is never missed, someone's heart will mend,

someone's heart will never love again, someone's heart will never trust again and want to love, someone's heart never felt and my heart forever melts.

Better Than I Know Myself

You were there - at the moment I began
When the child became a man
Saw my future in the making - saw the path my life was taking
You saw a million things Ill never understand
You know me better than I know myself
Better than I know myself
Time after time youve shown it to be true
That no one loves me like you
You are here so let it rain or let it shine
You are with me all the time
When Im waking - when Im sleeping
In the secret thoughts Im keeping
You know everything about this heart of mine
You know me better than I know myself
Better than I know myself
Time after time youve shown it to be true
That no one loves me like you
Youll be there - when the end of time has come
And I know youll take me home
So I thank you for tomorrow
All my joys and all my sorrows
And I thank you for the greatest thing Ive known
You know me better than I know myself
Better than I know myself
Time after time youve shown it to be true
That no one loves me like you

Shiny Star

I look upon the sky
In search of a star
I see comets fly
And stars shine

Oh shiny star
Shiny star that is so far
I wish my life
Shined as bright as you

I glance upon the starry sky
In awe of the shiny star
While the comet flies
And that star shines luminously

Oh shiny star
Shiny star that is so far
If only my life
Shined as bright as you
