Scarred
staring into the sun
hoping it would blind her
what's done is done
things cannot be unseen
the heat starts to burn
her face starts to redden
refusing to turn away
feeling burdened
why did she have to look?
why did she have to see?
what was she doing there?
when she has somewhere else to be!
in the wrong place
at the wrong time
resulting in a mental torture
of the worst kind
trying to forget the image
burned into her head
but when she closes her eyes
she sees it instead
the sun didn't help
the tears wouldn't wash it away
nothing seems to work
in her mind it'll stay
this is what she gets
for wanting to always be right
this is what happens
when she puts up a fight
he's shown her his colours
he's more than a just a rainbow
but also darker than a storm
he went from friend to foe
all her trust he had
in a matter of minutes gone
now to wipe out the memory
of the friend turned con

Head & Heart
Written by john martyn, 1972
Found on homecoming.
Theres just no way to say how much I love you
You never make me cry and thats just fine
Ive only got my fear to burn above me
You know we all get scared from time to time
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me like a child
Theres just no way to play the things Im feelin
No way to tell you all the things you mean
Every day I only feel like stealin
Away to where I know I can be free
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me when Im wild
Laying down the ways to say I need you
Scared of lookin tall and feeling small
Running through the days I have beside you
Scared of being wrong, and thats it all
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me like a child
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me like a child

Pretentious Friend
A friend never leaves any other friend
but what will happened if betrayal starts
to circle within your friendship?
Never anticipated that one's friend can do that
but theres just friend that pretends to be your friend.
Saying they like you, but the truth they dont
telling you, they have seen you go to that wrong way
but they were just afraid to tell you
but the truth they've never seen you go to the wrong way.
pretending to be a true and caring friend,
when you turn your back
full of stabs in your back can be seen.
choosing a friend has never been easy
but if your friend just steals slowly everything from you
then you wake up
and see everything has gone.
Secrets are disperse
and your name is destroyed
for you trusted the wrong friend
and you just dont know how to get up again,
blaming your pretentious friend
she had left you with problems you have to solve
but dont ever put your full trust to a friend again
for you dont know what she's capable of.
Head And Heart
There's just no way to say how much I love you
You never make me cry and that's just fine
I've only got my fear to burn above me
You know we all get scared from time to time
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me like a child
There's just no way to play the things I'm feelin'
No way to tell you all the things you mean
Every day I only feel like stealin'
Away to where I know I can be free
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me when I'm wild
Laying down the ways to say I need you
Scared of lookin' tall and feeling small
Running through the days I have beside you
Scared of being wrong, and that's it all
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me like a child
Love me with your head and heart
Love me from the place it starts
Love me with your head and heart
Love me like a child

Tar Poo
It seems to you
See yourself inside a lie
Break down and save yourself to no prevail
Tell me
Show the way
Maybe you'd rather dance with self-esteem
Cringe as you find your mental gangrene
Tell me
Show the way
Today you seem quite insane
But tomorrow
The man I am will be gone
'Cause you're all too blind
To see that something's wrong
Don't fight this
I know you're a little scared
Speak freely
Until I drag the truth from you
Trust me
I'm the way
I need to jump right in and f**k around
Access to places that you dream about
Trust me
I'm the way
Today you seem quite insane
But tomorrow
The fine line drawn will be gone
And you're all too blind
To see that something's wrong
The facade so tried and true is stripped away
And the man you tried to save is led astray
Save me
I'm so scared and I can't find my way
And I need someone to save me
Help me
Time will tell 'cause time has told on me
And I need someone to help
'Cause the road is long
And the hold is strong
I can see you in my mind
See what a work of art my patient is
No big deal
The mind inside is mine not his
Fear me
Stay away
You'll never come around this place again
You've seen me
I'll put your snooping to an end
Fear me
Stay away
Today you seem fine and sane
And tomorrow
The world you know will be gone
And you're all too blind
To see that you've gone wrong
You've gone wrong

What kind?
what kind of friend that is there for u Always
what kind of friend thats has a picture of you in his heart
what kind of friend thats turns your face upside down when your sad
what kind of friend that takes off his mask in front of others
what kind of friend that wants you till the end
what kind of friend that wipe your tears and be a shoulder to cry on
what kind of friend that you call an angel
what kind of friend wants you HAPPY
what kind of friend wont give up on you
what kind of friend you like to mess around with
what kind of friend? well, THE BEST FRIEND! ! ! ! ...Hamany... ;)

Ultimate Relief (Rev.)
The lemon-meringue for Tiaan’s birthday is taking
its toll, headache, chemical depression, I’m trying
to be brave but finally give in to misery, resorting
to tears, eyes going out of focus – not a word of
complaint while weathering the storm,
pain alienates me from everybody
Wrong time to reread ‘Love of Seven Dolls’ by
Paul Gallico, wrong time to read about Mouche’s
fight to stay alive while my head is burning, wrong
time to concentrate as a feverish heat wave and
stomach-ache make me feel dizzy - I promised
my friend I would not withdraw into fantasy
I play at being an author planning the intrigue that
will allow my characters to solve the problem of
isolation while I am isolated within my own head,
unable to communicate, words on paper my only
release, speaking as expression impossible -
the ultimate relief - tears - while sitting here….

Some Kind Of Friend
Music by Barry Manilow
Lyrics by Adrienne Anderson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I saw you at the Beechwood Cafe
You looked at me and then you looked away
That was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
You said you had places that you had to be
Now who is gonna be there for me
That was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
Lady that was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
Baby that was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
They say that women like you can't get enough
Got your Maserati built for two
They say that women like you like to play
with love
Is that true?
When I ran into you the other day
You smiled at me but you had nothing to say
That was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
Tell me why'd you do what you did to me
Covered up your life so I couldn't see
Now that was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
Lady that was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned to be
Baby that was some kind
Some kind of friend you turned out to be
I never should have let you get to me
Nevershould have let you bring me down
Didn't know that I was just some fantasy
That you found.

When You Trust Somebody
Where should I turn
What should I do
There’s no one to trust
There’s no one left
They’ve all turned against me
I knew not to trust
When you mess with fire
You must get burned
I used to trust them
Now definitely not
I’ve never trusted before
Why should I start now
Every time this happens
And eventually I forgive and forget
But not this time
This time I will NOT forget
There’s only one person to trust
And that’s yourself
Yourself won’t share your secrets
Unless you want them to
Yourself will never betray you
In the end it’s you against the world
So you must learn to defend yourself
To automatically lock down your emotions
To never trust no matter what
Cause in the end
You will only get hurt
So now it’s just me
With no one to trust
I must learn to fight
To defend
And to never trust again
Cause everyone will turn their backs
Right when you need them
They’ll leave when you need help
They’ll ignore you
When you’re uncertain and need guidance
What are these so called friends
They are nothing to you
Like you are nothing to them
Friends are imaginary
Like unicorns and fairies
They don’t exist
They are made up
They’re just someone’s fantasy
Someone who still trusts
But that someone will learn
That there is no one to trust
I’ve learned my lesson
After being burned countless times
I’ve learned, have you
I will never trust again
Cause trust only leads to pain
And I don’t need anymore of that
So the next time someone says
TRUST ME
Look at them strangely
And laugh
Because you know what happens
When You Trust Somebody

I Was Hoping
as we were taking outside it was cold we were shivering yet warmed by the subject matter
my wife is in the next room we've been having troubles you know please don't tell her or anyone
but I need to talk to somebody
you said "wouldn't it be a shame if I knew how great I was five minutes before I died i'd be filled
with such regret before I took my last breath" and I said "you're willing to tell me this now
and you're not going to die any time soon"
and I said I haven't been eating chicken or meat or anything and you said yes
but you've been wearing leather and laughed and said we're at the top of the food chain
and yes you're a fine woman and I cringed
I was hoping I was hoping we could heal each other
I was hoping I was hoping we could be raw together
we left the restaurant where the head waiter (in his 60's) said "good-bye sir thank you for your business sir you're
successful and established sir and we like the frequency with which you dine here sir
and your money" and when I walked by they said "thank you too dear" I was all pigtails and cords
and there was a day when I would've said something like "hey dude I could buy and sell this place so kiss it"
I too once thought I was owed something
I was hoping I was hoping we could challenge each other
I was hoping I was hoping we could crack each other up
I too thought that when proved wrong I lost somehow
I too once thought life was cruel
it's a cycle really you think i'm withdrawing and guilt tripping you I think you're insensitive
and I don't feel heard and I said do you believe we are fundamentally judgmental? fundamentally evil?
and you said yes I said I don't believe in revenge in right or wrong good or bad you said
"well what about that man that I saw handcuffed in the emergency room bleeding after beating his kid
and she threw a shoe at his head.
I think what he did was wrong and I would've had a hard time feeling compassion for him"
I had to watch my tone for fear of having you feel judged.
I was hoping I was hoping we could dance together
I was hoping I was hoping we could be creamy together

Starlight
If I ever let you down ..friend
Ill apologize... now
And if I didnt hear you call for me
I was feeling sorry for myself
When the moon begins to fade ...out
And the sun dont care to shine
When your heavens starts to fall...down
Ill be your guiding starlight
And if I serenade myself
And put my pride on the shelf
And tell you that I was wrong
I guess its not news to me
I guess its just history
That a man gets it wrong
Gets it wrong...
When the morning hurts your eyes...friend
And you cant see... from crying
And the day turns into night time
And hope holds no tomorrow
When the moon begins to fade ...out
And your sun dont care to shine
When the heavens starts to fall...down
Ill be your guiding starlight
And this fair weather friend
Was never at the rainbows end
To sing the saddest song
I guess its not news to me
I guess its just history
Should have been there all along
All along
If the moon begins to fade ...out
And your sun dont care to shine
When the heavens starts to fall...down
Ill be your guiding starlight
Ill be your guiding starlight
Ill be your guiding starlight

It Starts With The Fear of God
It starts with the fear of God my friend and the fear of God alone,
That removes self from the heart and places Jesus on the throne.
Worldly knowledge won't change your heart, won't change it at all,
For my heart and yours, my friend, was tainted way back at the fall.
Even if you read God's Word and thoroughly understand what it said,
It won't benefit you at all my friend, if it only stays in your head.
For a head full of knowledge, even understanding, is only the start,
It becomes a true Saving Faith when you accept Jesus into your heart.
For it is with your heart you believe and are justified in His sight,
And with your mouth you confess and are saved, much to His delight.
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and will be to the end,
For this world's wisdom is folly, in the eyes of The Lord my friend.
The fear of God is not weakness my friend, as it leads to Salvation,
While no fear or reverence towards God above leads to Damnation.
Man's wisdom and his desire to be God leads down all the wrong paths,
As God who sent His Son, as the Only Way, sits in Heaven and laughs.
These men always learning will never come to The Truth who will save,
And like the nations that forget God will be turned into the grave.
But there still is time for you to turn to The God of all creation,
And with fear in your heart, you can embrace His Truth of Salvation.

What Exactly Is A Friend?
Could you answer this question?
What exactly is a friend?
Is it someone who’s there for you?
Until the very end
Maybe it takes someone special
Somebody brave and kind
What if it’s someone clever?
Somebody pure of mind
A friend is strong and caring
A friend you are to me
A friend is someone thoughtful
A friend is you, you see.
You’ve helped me to see the beauty,
That’s present in every star
I think you’ve really helped me,
One day you will go far
You’ve put a smile on my face,
And helped when I was sad
You’ve been here through everything
Even when things were bad
A friend is always there for you
A friend through thick and thin
A friend is a form of angel
To solve every problem you’re in
Friendship alone is difficult
But two can make it strong
When friends are very close
You really can’t go wrong
Loving you is easy
I promise what I say is true
If you hadn’t come to Carrie’s
There’d be no me and you.
I love my best friend dearly
She makes everything okay
Without my sister in my life
I wouldn’t last a day.

Self Portrait
My friend, leave before you fall into my trap
My friend, I’m not what I pretend to be
My friend, I’ll only scar you
My friend, you chose the wrong fiend to befriend
My friend, I backstab all who trust me
My friend, I lie to all who speak so fondly of my deeds
My friend, I’ll bring nothing more than trouble to your doorstep
My friend, I’ll never be there when you call
My friend, I’m addicted to this way of life
My friend, I only care for things that add to my pathetic ruin
My friend, I don’t care for anybody but myself
My friend, I’m what your mother said a devil might turn out to be
My friend, I’m not proud of all of this
My friend, I’m simply honest and indiscreet
My friend, I’m losing but I’m happy and relaxed
My friend, I think you should stick around for another night and try your luck

Missing What I Never Had
She didn't have the time, or the piece of mind
to know a good thing when she saw it coming down the line.
What else could I do? It was hers to choose -
I'd given my all and I got nothin' left to lose.
She's in a different place; didn't have the space
What has it come to, has it all gone to waste?
It's just the same old trend, no she won't even bend.
I guess I'm just one more 'never more than a friend'
If she only knew all the things I would do
I wouldn't be so down, no, I wouldn't be so blue.
And year after year it's my biggest fear
that all I profess is all she'll never hear.
If I persist, will it cease to exist -
this love, I know not of which it consists.
It's just the same old trend, no she won't even bend.
I guess I'm just one more 'never more than a friend'
Try as I might, I'm losing the fight.
What I wouldn't give for you to be here tonight
under the silver shroud of the moonlit clouds -
Trust me tonight, darling, two's not a crowd.

Since Youve Been Gone
J. spinks
Since youve been gone
Theres something I wanna say
Since youve been gone
Theres no one taking your place
Since youve been gone
Ive just been foolin around
Since youve been gone
This worlds been turned upside down
Didnt think Id find a girl that I could not forget
Anything we started not so long ago - aint over yet
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know it wont be long
An I know youre coming back
You turned me on
Since the first time I set eyes on you
You turned me on
Ooh the things you want me to do
Dont get me wrong
cos youre not the only girl Ive ever had
But since youve been gone
Girl you know the thought of yous driving me mad
All I do is think of you I lie awake - lie awake
And no matter how I try this loneliness - you know I cant take
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know it wont be long
An I know youre coming back
Since youve been gone
Theres something I wanna say
Since youve been gone
Theres no one to stand in my way
Since youve been gone
So scared of losing this time
Since youve been gone
Girl you know that I cant get you out of my mind
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know that I was wrong
An I know youre coming back
Since youve been gone
Tried my best to read between the lines
If some things are hard to say
You better tell me one more time
Since youve been gone
Since youve been gone

Picture Of You
Didn't they say that I would make a mistake
Didn't they say you were going to be trouble.
People told me you were too much to take
I couldn't see it
I didn't wanna know.
I let you in and you let me down
You messed me up and you turned my life around
You left me feeling I had nowhere to go
I was alone
How was I to know that
(Bridge)
You'd be there
When I needed somebody.
You'd be there
The only one who could help me
(Chorus)
I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong.
Why'd it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along
Who'd believe that after all we've been through
I'd be able to put my trust in you
Goes to show you can forgive and forget
Looking back
I have no regrets 'cos

(Chorus) - repeat to fade

No Way To Treat A Friend
When I walked you to the door I was feeling mighty fine
I was thinking hey Ive got love to ease my mind
Then I got to the car and I was staring at your scars
Thinking hey, this aint no way to spend my time
Now I want a true love affair
Not this touch-and-go in the air
You know I dont know if Im coming or Im down
I dont want a love touch and go
I want a feeling I only know
Or else you can get me out of this town
When I saw you smile I knew one look into your eyes
And I was thinking hey, are you in love again
Then I heard you laugh honey you were laughing at the past
I was thinking this aint no way to treat a friend
You were laughing at the past
Honey you were smiling through your glass
Watching cars drive away in your mind
You were hoping I would leave
Honey I was dreaming I could stay
And this aint no way to spend my time
This aint no way to treat a friend
This aint no way to see me
Im looking for the end
This aint no way to treat a friend
Now I want words I want touch
Maybe thats a bit too much
For one so far removed
From what you used to claim
Well if you be cruel, Ill still be kind
You know Ive got it in my mind
Im in love with you
I aint gonna play your games
If you want my advice
Dont say its wrong if it feels right
Dont push me down just to see me crawl
Ill be crawling on the floor
Then Ill be reaching for the door
Ill be crawling right out of your eyes
Honey Ill be walking right out of your eyes
Honey Ill be walking right out of your eyes
