Alligators Were Dying
I always differed
for the sake of semblance.
Feathers did not agree.
You flew away for your sky.
Impatience had killed the defeat
my elixir, the baby sea in my eyes.
Genocide of the figs, unlearning
the sweetness of life.
Yet a white python was hungry.
A heart rendering feat to dig-out
a home after the earthquake.
Alligators were dying in midstream.
I was running after the desert.
Why bustards were disappearing?
Trees were hung upside down.
There was no suicidal note.

Such Exquisite Loneliness
Sunlight in a dream,
Sparrows sing in solicitous trees.
A glass of beer,
A cordial café bar
On a college street,
The sweetness of her eyes.
Certain poets
Are meant to be sad
With suicidal thoughts,
I qualify but protest.
So much color
In the beautiful world,
The green grass
And the yellow dress,
The sapphire necklace
Leading to white shoulders.
I want to see everything
With a complimentary heart of prayer.

Hung Up On You
Orbison/melson
Hooked on the touch of your hand, high on how you understand
Lost when you whispered hello ,something in your eyes said dont go
I just had to stay, couldnt go away from you, you knew what to do to get me
Hung up on you,hung up on you,hung up on you,hung up on you
You knew, the first time we met that I could never forget
You held me so close to you, I could never get over you
You were so aware how to make me care and keep me
Hung up on you,hung up on you,hung up on you,hung up on you
Yeah, you got me where you wanted me, I am where I really want to be
Hung up,hung up,hung up on you
Im so hung up on you that I dont know what I would do without you
Oh it will take me forever to get enough of you and I cant help it if im
Hung up on you,hung up on you,hung up on you baby,hung up on you
Hung up on you,hung up on you...

You know Im wild about you, baby,
Been keepin me from my sleep at night.
You know Im hung up on you, little doll,
You just dont treat your daddy right.
You know you crazy when you get drunks, you be talkin all out your head.
Youre acting mighty strange about me, sayin those things you said.
Im just wild about you, baby,
Been keepin me from my sleeps at night.
You know Im hung up on you, little darlin,
You just dont treat your daddy right, oh yeah.
Dya know I came home last night and I looked down on the floor,
I saw a fine pair of alligators, somethin I never had before.
But Im wild about you, baby,
Been keepin me from my sleeps at night.
You know Im hung up on you, little darlin,
You just dont treat your daddy right.
Said, now honey if you dont stop messin round with me,
Tryn to make me out a dumbbell, somethin I aint never gonna be.
Im still wild about you, baby,
You been keepin me from my sleeps at night.
You know Im hung up on you, little doll,
But you just dont treat your daddy right.

A Forest - Show Version
Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
If you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes
I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees
Into the trees
Suddenly i stop
But i know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again
She said "could you take me home tonight?
It's the only way i know."
She said "could you take me home tonight?
There's no other way i know."
She said "you know the way you used to do."
"of course i'll take you home."
"you know the way you used to do."
"of course i'll take you home."
This kiss could cost my life.
Is all you see in her eyes.
This kiss could cost my life.
Is all you see in her eyes.
It's all you see in her eyes.
She said "take my hand, take me home."
She said "take my hand, take me home.
Take me home.
Take me home.

Running To You
My life is falling to pieces
It turning upside down
I'm running away from my past and forgetting it
Running to you
For help and save me from this broken road
Take me back home
You're my hero
I do anything to get out of here
I'm sick and tired of same routine
Days going on and past me by
Running to you
For fun and wild time of my life
I'm just looking for a good time with you
Running from here, my problems, and everyone
Running to you

Without You
when i first see you i could not stop staring at you
when i first hear your voice i always wish to hear it all the time
baby when you are not around my heart shake like an earthquake
baby i wish you could see how much i love you
how much i need you right now
please understand when is say that i love you
please understand when i say i am dying for you
please believe me when i say that i love you
when i am without you i feel like the world is falling
baby you can't see the tears in my eyes but you could
see how much i need to be with you.
how much i need you
oh baby can't see that your love is the only thing that is important for me to survive
baby i need you more than ever
any words could explain how i really feel when your not around
without you is like living in hell

Verities
The moon was moving
stealthily in wilderness.
Time was running out
tracing the shape.
I let her go, the
comely thing, putting on
hold, the teetering
poem.
Running faster than light, the
words catch you in midstream.
A warlord wants to put on
a helmet in night.
It was raining sparks and
cinders. You walk along the
redoubts, obliterating
simmering footsteps.
I am not a loser
dancing in the pit of snakes.
Bring the sweetness of venom.
I am alive.

Can I Have A Kiss (For Old Times' Sake)?
Oh oh, mmm-mmm
do do doo oh oh
Start off with a hug
Lead into embrace
Oh, girl, I'm glad to see you
Oh, face-to-face
Not a day of age
Oh, and by the way
I forgot to say
How much I missed you, baby
And just like deja vu, I say
Running into you this way
I want to keep you here
I got to have you near
Can I have a kiss from you (Can i have a kiss from you)
For old times' sake (oh baby)
Can I have a kiss from you (Can i have a kiss from you)
Can I have a kiss from you (Can i have a kiss from you)
For old times' sake(oh,oh)
It's been a long time
Since I've called you mine
Sure would like to see us
Back together like we used to be
So let me take you out
So much to talk about
Like things we used to share
And how to get it back my dear
Just like deja vu, I say
Running into you this way
I want to keep you here
I got to have you near
Can I have a kiss from you (Can i have a kiss from you)
For old times' sake (oh baby)
Can I have a kiss from you (Can i have a kiss from you)
Can I have a kiss from you (Can i have a kiss from you)
For old times' sake(oh,oh)
Oh yeah well yeah well well
Well well well can I can I can I can I
No no no no no
Can I have a kiss baby
I need it oh want it
And just like deja vu, I say
Running into you this way
I want to keep you here
I got to have you near

Goliaths Disarm Their Davids
Bible arm on social hell
Spins its downward spiral
With each year of unprogression
A fine of failure is added
Closer than ever to the edge
A feat in resident martyrs
Strong objects track my body,
My body down
Eyes, disappearing rebirth of light...
Between a labrynth of errors
And the key to the suicide era
Digging through the graves of giants
Words fly to me
A lonely road, like a promise
Failing miserably
Running through like an alphabet of hate
To shake the entire organism closer than ever,
Ever to the edge
Eyes, disappearing rebirth of light...
Between a labrynth of errors
And the key to the suicide era
I kill for the code to disarm this mess
Of psychotic chaos that once I mixed up myself
Disarm

My Honeysuckle Baby
My honeysuckle, baby.
Baby, you’re my honeysuckle.
You’re my Honeysuckle Baby.
My Honeysuckle Baby, baby.
From the bush I pluck you,
Put your tart body to my lips,
And draw your sweetness in with my mouth.
My Honeysuckle Baby—that’s what you are.
The baby from whom I get delectable honey.
What fine sweetness through that nice honey.
Fine, fine sweetness, my Honeysuckle Baby.
The honey is you, baby.
The sweetness is yours, honey.
You’re my honey, but you share your sweetness.
And that’s why I keep going to the bush.
And sucking it in: your great sweetness…

Blissful Life
Over Parshington, a white stroke flew
Carrying a baby to where Africa grew
He was taken to a vast family of six
A family of black and white all a mix
He grew up in dearth, beginning by birth
But nothing stopped him ever, being a blissful mirth
He tilled the soil and asked for toil
And lived in grains forgetting his pains
He prized his time and saved his dime
And lived a life worth greater than words
Over Parshington, a white stroke flew
Carrying a baby where Africa grew
In looks he was poor, but inside he was pure
He was worthy of every touch
And worthy of the lot much
He lives a life of pleasure
Having love as his biggest treasure
Over Parshington, a white stroke flew
Carrying a baby where Africa grew

Simply You're My Heart!
I've asked you my beloved,
Do not desert my love
Your love is already melted with my blood cells!
So how can you leave!
And you know that your existence in my life is the secret,
Thats why I still survive,
Don't you know! That your love is running throughout my venis,
Before my blood cells!
So if you'll ever leave me,
The life will desert me too,
How can you leave me!
Your love is my blood and with it my soul revives,
You're the one who,
Knocked on my heart doors,
And became your home,
How can you leave your home!
If you ever leave my heart,
You'll destroy it to millions of pieces
Simply my heart became you, and you became my heart.

And My Heart Goes
You make my heart go.....
Inside out you send me baby
Round and round your world
Upside down you make me crazy
For your love; its out of control
Like an evening star
Shining brightly through me
When you look into my eyes
I know we have something
Im following my heart
Trusting where love will lead
Surrendering my guard
I found security; oh in you
Darling youre the one for me
Tell me that you know
Chorus:
You make my heart go....
Inside out you send me baby
Round and round your world
Upside down you make me crazy
For your love; its out of control
Like a fairy tale
You kissed life into me
You cast away my fears
Finally Im free
Anyone can see Im crazy for you
Youre everything I need
Youre all I want to do
Its true loving you is magical
Tell me that you know
Chorus
And my heart goes
Inside and out
And my heart feels
Im losin control
Cause my heart knows
The only one for me, baby cant you see
And my heart goes
You turn me round and round
Cause my heart knows
Baby dont you know

Glow
(feat. Raphael Saadiq)
[verse 1:]
There's a wild streak in me
But it's only for u to see
Look to my heart, cause u know I'm ready to start
I guess I'm tryin to say, yes I've been waiting for this very day
Hope ur goin too slow, cause we're bout to shoot the sun a-glow
[hook:]
How do we make it, I do know
If there was ever a problem they had to go
Sometimes it's kinda hard yes I do agree
See 1 + u just equals me
They'll just watch us glow, they'll just watch us glow
[verse 2:]
Now in love something crazed ,
Exude from ur eyes when they are fixed on me & like the eternal flame,
We have a fire that won't ever stop burning
There's a power in numbers baby,
But 2 is deemed the perfect team
Me & u equals 2
We will battle the masses baby, but we will claim the victory
[hook:]
How do we make it, I do know
If there was ever a problem they had to go
Sometimes it's kinda hard yes I do agree
See 1 + u just equals me
They'll just watch us glow, they'll just watch us glow
[bridge:]
Some said we would never change.
Look at us now people tried to tear it all apart,
Boy u stole my heart so quickly
[hook:](until music fades)
How do we make it, I do know
If there was ever a problem they had to go
Sometimes it's kinda hard yes I do agree
See 1 + u just equals me
They'll just watch us glow, they'll just watch us glow
