Sometimes (very personal)
there are times when i'm hunted by my own thoughts
i feel real bad, ususally i keep ignoring it until..... i can't take it anymore
.......
So sometimes i want to cry
i don't know why
but i do
sometimes i want to walk
i don't know where to
but i do
sometimes i want to write
i don't know what
but i do
sometimes i talk to myself
i don't know why
but i do
sometimes i want to stay alone
i don't know why
but i do
sometimes i pretend to be happy
well, i know why (coz m sad)
and i do
sometimes i want to sing
i don't know what
but i do
sometimes i just want to die
i don't know why
but I DON'T! ! ! !

Walk Away
Dont say I love you, I wont say that I care
Ill pretend I never kissed you, or held you, or worshipped you
I swear
Ill live in denial for as long as I live
Cuz *what I need baby, this love just cant give
We have to walk away
We have to walk away
Ill try not to sing, youll try not to talk with those lips
Well forget all the sweet memories, and now well just go with what
Is
Cuz this love aint loving, and I dont know why
But anything that stands so still cant be alive
We have to walk away
We have to walk away
[refrain]
But there were times our love was, so sweet
And its *memory that makes me want to make it last
But you cant make love work, anymore than you can make it leave
And its then you gotta leave it yourself
[refrain2]
Cuz when love aint loving but still aint leaving
Its then you gotta leave it yourself
Now jealousy can ride your heart like a sick kind of pony
And envys just the same
And your loneliness can consume you no matter how much love you had
And when it all boils down, baby, theres no other way
And I *care much more than to make you stay
We have to walk away
We have to walk away
So at night, when darkness fills me,
Ill pretend you never spoke my name
When Im sitting home that lonely,
Ill pretend youre home and lonely, oh just the same
And Ill pretend this sorrow, this sorrow will pass
And Ill try to pretend that this loneliness wont last
And that Ill walk away
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Refrain
Repeat
Refrain2
Repeat
So dont say
So dont say I love you
I wont say that I care

October
I can't run anymore,
I fall before you.
Here I am.
I have nothing left.
Though I've tried to forget,
You're all that I am.
Take me home,
I'm through fighting it.
Broken, Lifeless,
I give up.
You're my only strength.
Without you,
I can't go on,
Anymore, Ever again
*My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, My only life,
(And love is where I am) My only love.
I can't run anymore.
I give myself to you,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
In all my bitterness,
I ignored all that's real and true.
All I need is you.
When night falls on me,
I'll not close my eyes.
I'm too alive,
And you're too strong.
I can't lie anymore,
I fall down before you.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
*
Constantly ignoring the pain consuming me.
But this time it's cut too deep.
I'll never stray again.

We Don't Talk Anymore
I used to think that life was sweet
I used to think it was so complete
I can't believe you, you've thrown it away
I used to think we had it made
I used to feel we would sail away
Can you just imagine how I feel today
Well, it seems a long time ago
You were the lonely one
Now it comes to letting go
And you're the only one
Do you know what you've done
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
It really doesn't matter to me
I guess your leaving was meant to be
It's down to you now
You want to be free
Well, I hope you know which way to go
You're on your own again
Don't come running to me when you're the lonely one
Remember what you've done
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore
It's so funny how we don't talk ..... anymore.......

Writers block
At times I say to my pen
write dear pen
and scribble or scratch,
but whatever you do
write down words
and make sweet poetry
out of them.
But the pen lies silent
as if it’s ink is dry,
like a broken violin
that cannot play anymore.
So I go to my thoughts
and say think dear man
and dream and sing,
but I have forgotten everything
and every hymn
that I use to know
is gone out of my memory
as if it never was there.
So I try to dream
and to see pictures
of scenes of how
the words in the poems
should be,
but they grow stretching
away from me.
So I talk to my Muse
and no Muse answers me,
but when I pray
a thunderstorm flashes past
and words comes gliding down
like drops onto a thirsty soul.

Walk On
I hear some people been talkin me down,
Bring up my name, pass it round.
They dont mention happy times
They do their thing, Ill do mine.
Ooh baby, thats hard to change
I cant tell them how to feel.
Some get stoned, some get strange,
But sooner or later it all gets real.
Walk on, walk on,
Walk on, walk on.
I remember the good old days,
Stayed up all night gettin crazed.
Then the money was not so good,
But we still did the best we could.
Ooh baby, thats hard to change
I cant tell them how to feel.
Some get stoned, some get strange,
But sooner or later it all gets real.
Walk on, walk on,
Walk on, walk on.

Walk on by.
Just walk on by ignoring me
Why should you care that I'm hungry
You are well fed and warmly dressed
You demonstrate no interest.
You can pretend you do not see
And go your way quite happily.
I used to hold the self same view.
But that was long before I knew.
What it was like to lose it all.
The happy times I can recall.
Fate snatched away most suddenly.
Now I depend on charity.
Something I thought I'd never do
But circumstances force me to.

Stay On Top
Everybody got somebody
Trying to make you feel real bad
Aint none of their business
Talking behind your back
Be strong in yourself
Stand up - walk away
Nobody gives a damn for a
Single thing you say
Im singing
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Here comes the thunder
Hide money in your pocket
Be nobodys fool
Always think of number one
Thats my golden rule
Take care of business
Go for it with the best
Be strong enough to take it
Aint no need to rest
Im singing
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Watch out for the thunder
Bad times make you cry
But the good times get you high
I cant stand it
I cant stand it no more
Somebody, everybody
Trying to make you feel real bad
Aint nobodys business
Talking behind your back
Be strong in yourself
Stand up - walk away
Nobodys gonna listen
To a single word you say
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Look out for the thunder
Stay on top
Youve got to stay on top
Stand up and sing it
Stay on top
Take care of business
Stay on top

When I Talk To You
Remember me
Feels like forever
Since the days
When we were friends
I don't understand
All these changes
I'm still the same
No need to pretend
Where'd it go..?
Do you know..?
Maybe it just doesn't matter
'Cause when i try to talk to you
I feel like I'm not getting through you
Where did we go wrong
It's hard to be strong
When I talk...
When I talk to you
There were times
In the beginning
When you were there
When I needed you most
We'd sit and talk
About the future
And laugh about
Us getting old
Do you know
How it feels
I hope that you know that it matters
But when i try to talk to you
I feel like I'm not getting through you
Where did we go wrong
It's hard to be strong
When I talk to you
I want you to know everything that I am
Don't want to know what life would be without you
When i try to talk to you
I feel like I'm not getting through you
Where did we go wrong
It's hard to be strong
When I talk...
When I talk to you

If I Were You
The tenth of may
It seems so far away
When you and I were strangers moving close together
Sometimes it seems
Its almost like a dream
Driving across the country and the road is endless
If I were you
Dont wait until tomorrow
Id lead and wouldnt follow
Walk away - today
If I were you - please listen
Walk away - Id say
If I were you go away
The first of june
The summer came too soon
But from the day we met I knew youd never go away
Sometimes I feel
The passions not so real
Finding it strange to be together, not alone
If I were you
Id smile and close the door
Id never ask for more
Walk away - dont stay
If I were you - believe me
Walk away - Id say
If I were you go away
Fourth of july
With an independent sigh
I think the times arrived to take whats going to happen
Wise men may say
Its easier to stay
But if you are there Im only wasting time
If I were you
I know Id want to hurt me
It wouldnt disconcert me
Walk away - Id pray
If I were you - Id leave me
Walk away - today
If I were you - please listen
Walk away - dont stay
If I were you - believe me
Walk away - Id pray
If I were you - Id leave me
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
Id leave if I were you

Lost Her
I still have so much work to do as I have to write an assignment today. Have not started writing it as yet. Feel so confused in my thoughts as every day is so depressing. Honestly, it hurts being me as yesterday I thought I had found a friend whom I was searching since so long but it was not to be as she just is not talking to me anymore. She appears to be online but when I say 'Hi' to her, she has started ignoring me. It hurts so much since nobody loves me and no friend I have.

Happy Thoughts, Happy Thoughts, Think Happy Thoughts
I have to keep reminding myself to forget you.
Forget you and me.
(Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, think happy thoughts.)
You wanted me to promise to never say it again
Those three words
(Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, think happy thoughts)
Which is laughably easy to do right now because
We are so far out of touch I couldn’t reach you if I tried
(Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, think happy thoughts)
So I plod through grey days and inky dark nights
Heavy laden with regret
(Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, think happy thoughts)
Tomorrow I will remind myself to forget you.
Forget you and me.

Talk About The Good Times
(words & music by jerry reed hubbard)
Well I remember when I was as children
The time the people used to treat the neighbor like a fellow man
And all their singin and big prayer meetins
When a man was proud to walk up and shake his neighbors hand
Oh you talk about the good times,
Talk about the good times
Oh if you ever needed help a friend was there
Some good neighbor
Help lift your burden
Mmm, and the simple joys of life a friend would share
Times are harder and the people are changin
Now most folks couldnt tell you who their neighbors are
All their guns are loaded, the front doors are bolted
Aint this ol world takin hate and fear just a little too far
Oh you talk about the good times,
Talk about the good times
I wish I could go back to the days Im speakin of
When a friend would meet you
And a smile would greet you
What this ol world needs now is a little old fashioned love
My granddaddy God rest his soul now
Well we had a big long talk together the day he died
Said son this world is full of hate and venom
An I cant wait to leave this ol place and rest on the other side
Oh you talk about the good times, talk about the good times
Talk about the good times
Im gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol days
Well have a big hand shakin
An sit and talk together
Sit down by the river jordan and sing our blues away
Oh you talk about the good times, talk about the good times
Talk about the good times
Im gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol days
Well have a big hand shakin
An sit and talk together
Sit down by the river jordan and sing our blues away
Oh you talk about the good times, talk about the good times
Talk about the good times
Im gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol days
Well have a big hand shakin
An sit and talk together
Sit down by the river jordan and sing our blues away

A Man Could Get Arrested
(tennant/lowe)
--------------
Do it (do it do it do it do it do it...)
Do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it...
Do it now do it now do it now do it now do it now do it now do it now
Do it (do it do it do it do it...)
Late on tuesday evening, such a commotion in the street
Someone broke a window, and someones head got beat
A wave of breaking bottles, crashed across the city street
And someone got arrested, for the breach of the peace
If you wanna walk (walk walk walk walk)
Dont talk (talk talk talk talk)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna earn (earn earn earn earn)
Learn (learn learn learn)
How to do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
And if you wanna ride (ride ride ride ride)
Dont hide (dont hide)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna stay (stay stay stay)
Dont say (say say say)
Prove it! (prove it prove it prove it prove it prove it prove it)
How much longer are you gonna sit and talk to me?
You got so many problems and a split personality
You want to see a doctor before our love is tested
How much longer a man could get arrested?
If you wanna walk (walk walk walk walk)
Dont talk (talk talk talk talk)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna earn (earn earn earn earn)
Learn (learn learn learn learn)
How to do it! (do it do it do it do it do it)
And if you wanna ride (ride ride ride ride)
Dont hide (hide hide hide hide hide)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
And if you wanna stay (stay stay stay)
Dont say (say say say)
Prove it! (prove it prove it prove it prove it prove it prove it)
Youve got your health, youve got everything, thats what my doctor said
You may not have much cash, but youve got a roof over your head
Of course I said I loved you, not just cause you insisted
How much longer a man could get arrested?
If you wanna walk (walk walk walk walk)
Dont talk (talk talk talk talk)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna earn (earn earn earn earn)
Learn (learn learn learn learn)
How to do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna ride
Dont hide
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna stay (stay stay stay stay stay)
Dont say (say say say say say say)
Do it! (do it do it)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
Why dont, why dont we do it now?
Do it now?
Why dont, why dont we do it now?
Why dont we do it now?
Why dont, why dont we do it now?
Why dont we do it now?

Emotions Run Deep But end Happy
The thoughts you bring to me when you call
The joy you bring when you say 'hello'
The smile you put on my face when we begin to talk
How you make my eyes wide when i see you
How my heart starts racing when we touch lips
How my brine focuses just on you
The way my emotions get to a new high when they hear your voice
How tight my arms get when they are aroud you
The way you make me write this without a clue
How you don't even know nothing about this
Or how happy you make me
The way you make me happy
I feel so happy when i'm around you
Never wanting to hurt you because of how happy i get
You just make me so happy
My 69% all over again
I'm happy

Winter Wonderland / Sleigh Ride
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring-ting-tingling too
C'mon, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling yoo-hoo(yoo-hoo)
C'mon, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, are you married, we'll say, no man
But you can do the job when you're in town
Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
The face unafraid, the plans that we made
Walking in a winter wonderland
To face unafraid the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh baby, c'mon and walk with me
Oh, why don't you
Walk along, talk along, sing along all night
Oh baby
Walk along, talk along, sing along all night

I Don't Want To Talk It Over Anymore
I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We said it all last night,
And time and time, again before.
You don't know what you put me through,
When you walk out the door.
Now, I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We'll last about a month again this time.
I tried to do you right,
But you kept steppin' over the line.
Now your gone, it's ashame but it's the best,
Don't be concerned.
'Cause, I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
Each time we try to say I love you once again
And everytime we end up right back where we've been
I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We said it all last night,
And time and time again before.
You don't know what you put me through,
When you walk out the door.
Now, I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
Each time we try to say I love you one again,
And everytime we end up right back where we've been.
I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We said it all last night,
and time and time before.
You don't know what you put me through,
When you walk out the door.
Now, I don't want to talk it over, anymore...

Hi-Speed Soul
Do you ever feel like you just landed
On this earth?
You see the creatures all do their dances
Back and forth
You get restless and then you join them
On the floor
Suddenly it is tomorrow
Its not today anymore
Its not today anymore
You talk to the ceiling every day
The speakers are shaking
Why do i hear you okay?
Theyre playing soul at the wrong speed
It sounds right now
What are you doing to me?
Dyou ever feel like what we call real life
Is not so real?
Tripping up on the same old problems
You had last year
Well well pretend its another planet
Not so uptight
The stars are shining above the city
Every night
They come every night
You talk to the ceiling every day
The speakers are shaking
Why do i hear you okay?
Theyre playing soul at the wrong speed
It sounds right now
What are you doing to me?
Where are we going?
I dont care.
Our friends all left
Lets go anywhere.
Its getting late
I dont care.
Its just you and me
Lets go anywhere.

Last Talk
We can't act like nothing happen last year and hide it
Gravity will caught up to us
I wish we can meet each other
I know you think I'm annoy, but this
Last talk
It help us get through this
I know you mad, but I have my reasons
When we see each other, it be silence and quiet for a moment
I'm hoping for this too happen
This way for me to deal with this
I feel like I need to know how you feel and what's up
I know this going be hard, but this one
Last talk
Before we will never speak of this again
We need to let it all out and expressed how we feel
At end of this
Last talk
We will be relief, not guilty, and happy not to hide this anymore

Blood in the Water
If I was just to walk away
would there be enough love inside
enough to make me want to stay
And if all the words we said
were all we had left spoken
would you still know what to say
to change the way we feel
If the promises that we broken
wasn't enough to mend
would it make sense to pretend
when we're just wasting time
Like blood in the water
we eventually fade to nothing
wondering why we bother
when we don't see what's real
If you could only hide
these thoughts in your head
would you go from here
this pain that holds your fear

Walk With Me (in Nata)
walk with me in this village
walk with me tonight
no holding back anymore
for the cold feet of mine i feel
i tremble in talk
but can not stop the walk
to walk
and link up, and talk
with the humble wise straight-talk
people from nata to njuutshaa
i remember one tebetebe
literally means a butterfly
as she proudly talks and inspiring
so many and much she would talk
a point she would have in (the same) talk
indeed a blessing to me
a blessing to live
a blessing to give
and stay(ed) in a group of this group
for it is so worth it
same again...
let me welcome you to nata
it would have been a night after
a long day of intense community work
from kasane to nata, thereafter
proceeding to njuutshaa
my eyes so wide open like a bright star
met so many kind people, and laughter
on the land of our father
deep in the woodlands of nata
via sepako, semowane and back to nata
blessed people of my father
(i feel) so touched by all this
i can not erase this
from my memory,
i still relate my thoughts
my senses and energy
as you walk with me
a journey of thought in kind
a place so many would find
so barren and clear but a kind
to settle one's own mind
in its epic and blind
at night not to see
the beauty, the people and peace of mind
as amenities you may find
so welcoming, in nata
