True Word Unspoken
A ray of light
A warm spark of emotion
Till it's dark as night
Slurred in slow motion
A glimmer remains
But turns to stone
Overcast in reset
I am the unknown
My spark disguised
Curled into a ball
Hidden and safe
Never recognised at all
Withdrawn but protected
True word unspoken
I remain undetected
Forced to be unwoken
The hurt inside loud
I've tried to break out
Inside I am proud
I have tried to shout
An identity theft
Of the purest white
My true being left
In the darkness of night.

Darkness Of...
Darkness is not the darkness of night
it is the darkness of mind and soul.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of discrimination between poor and rich.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of dishonesty.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of aggravate.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is darkness of corruption.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of indiscipline.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of animosity.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of inveterate.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of perjury.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness that we all brought up inside us,
so, light the lamp of light inside you...

Regret
I still see your face appearing to me like a wave
Senses are still tuned to the scent of your aftershave
The white towel you have left behind in the shower
Remains like a withered memory or a pressed flower
I experience more sad days now since you've been gone
The most difficult time I have without you is right at dawn
Settling in for the night you no longer by my side right here
Often I scream silently hoping for everyone to overhear
At night sometimes I wake up afraid of the new day to come
With your visions in my mind repetitive like the beat of a drum
There are no more tears left to cry over you going away
Nothing left to say there is silence around me every day
I will try to forget the smile you gave me each morning
You took it away with you and I feel as in mourning
In time I know I will get better at this missing you less
But for the time being I am desolate and in great distress
It may appears selfish to bathe in self pity and hurt
But right now I am just barely holding on very inert
It was me saying that love is just an imaginary emotion
Now I'm paying for it and my life goes by in slow motion
I wish I could take back my analytical point of view
But I can't and you would not believe it although it's true
You said that my heart is frozen and you have no heat left
You don't know that it was you that took it with a theft

Dark Matter
In the darkness there exist
the objects only light
can indicate that you have missed
when they were out of sight,
and in obscurity were hidden
as if they'd never been,
unheard, unspoken and unwritten,
unsatisfied, unseen.
Go seek what's hidden, try to find
the matter that is dark,
the marvels waiting for the mind
and spirit for the spark
that shatters dark and lights the world
with brilliance from dark matter
which, when thought thunderbolts are hurled,
makes light from darkness scatter.

The Way I See Love
True love is something that cant die
Its the little things that brings it to life
The way your eyes light when u see that person
You smile so big u don't no that u smiling
You tell the world that's your true love
When the world does not know you
You think of that person so much
That it hurts not having them there next to u
When two people meet
They tend to think that spark u have will last
I call that LUST
As soon as that spark leave
Then u no that LUST turns to LOVE
LOVE is a test to see if two people will make it
When one misses that LUST
One misses being single
Small things make everything count
True love come with a price
Its hard to love
The arguments u have
That's a test
If one can't take that
Then one tends to turn to LUST
Gets that spark by someone else
And forgetting that LOVE is better
Phone calls at night say goodnight
A message in the morning saying morning
Keeps love awake all night
True love comes within two hearts
Once u got it hold on and don't let go

A Note On Existentialist Love
When love is sweet, the sweetness means its light
And light may keep the truth, when love is pure.
But love is bitter, when it turns to fight.
Lovers in fight are always immature.
But night of love may never come to dream
As pure light, where darkness never comes
And night of dream may swim in love upstream,
When darkness in the light always succumbs.
When love is true, the purity may hold
And lovers' dreams are never in the dark.
When angels' lights eternity enfold
And light of love may continue to spark.

Sacrifice
ignite me
ignite me with just a spark
from you in the dark
and i will be this fire that burns
that lights from day till night
to warm your body
and guide you in your way
and when i am ashed
tell them if they ask
i have done my duty
i had it my little own way
from the spark of your love that never dies
i have become the constant sacrifice

At Night
Sunk deep in the night
I sink in the night
Standing alone underneath the sky
I feel the chill of ice
On my face
I watch the hours go by
The hours go by
You sleep
Sleep in a safe bed
Curled and protected
Protected from sight
Under a safe roof
Deep in your house
Unaware of the changes at night
At night
I hear the darkness breathe
I sense the quiet despair
Listen to the silence
At night
Someone has to be there
Someone has to be there
Someone must be there

I Like The Way
Somewhere inside my evolution
Karmically I seek retribution
Looking for love in physical beauty
Desire is the drug of the bourgeoisie
And now I try to intellectualize
Like a glimmer of good in a bad man's eyes
I am consumed by the flesh haunting me
I know temptation taunts the empty
So pour yourself over me
Until there's nothing left to see, yeah yeah
Because I like the way you move in the dark
I like the tension, the tension and the spark
The decadence of giving into desire
Creates such entropy within
Looking for love in spiritual faces
Blind to the art of fabrication
I'm like a baby sucking mama's milk
Want to drink my fill and then some
Leave me alone
I always thought I was better than this
But temptation tempts the temptee
Pour yourself over me
Until there's nothing left to see, yeah yeah
Oh, because I like the way you move in the dark
And I like the tension, the tension and the spark, oh
Because I like the way you move in the dark, oh
You know I like the tension, the tension and, the tension and the spark, oh
This physicality
Shifting me chemically
Such power over me
It's just desire
I know it's treachery (shifting me chemically)
I know it's just skin deep (such power over me)
I know I should resist
I'm just too tired
Too tired
There's just one thing missing
One thing missing here is
Love
I like the way you move in the dark
I like the tension, the tension and the spark (so pour yourself over me)
You know, I like the way you move in the dark (so pour yourself over me)
You know, I like the tension, the tension and, the tension and the spark
So pour yourself over me
(There's just one thing missing)
(One thing missing)
Until there's nothing left to see
(There's just one thing missing)
(The tension and the spark)
(One thing missing)
(So pour yourself over me)
There's just one thing missing
One thing missing
(So pour yourself over me)
(I like the tension, the tension and the spark)
(There's just one thing missing)
One thing missing here is...

Bazonka
Say Bazonka every day
That's what my grandma used to say
It keeps at bay the Asian Flu'
And both your elbows free from glue.
So say Bazonka every day
(That's what my grandma used to say)
Don't say it if your socks are dry!
Or when the sun is in your eye!
Never say it in the dark
(The word you see emits a spark)
Only say it in the day
(That's what my grandma used to say)
Young Tiny Tim took her advice
He said it once, he said it twice
he said it till the day he died
And even after that he tried
To say Bazonka! every day
Just like my grandma used to say.
Now folks around declare it's true
That every night at half past two
If you'll stand upon your head
And shout Bazonka! from your bed
You'll hear the word as clear as day
Just like my grandma used to say!

A Love Forbidden
it is about a love
forbidden
when the two
of us
decided to break
the rules
written in stone
by our
ancestors
we dare
them all
one night
we do not
speak any
word
yet we understand
what we
both want
we both
need it
we wait
for the
mutual release
of feelings
inside us
we release
them like
doves
deep in the night
we are restless
then
we finally
find this
bliss and do
its dictates
like a hidden
code
pre-stitched
in our skins
there is
no word
to describe
it, there is no word that we can utter
we feel justice
is now inside us, there is no regret, there is no feeling
of being wasted
we are inside this dream
and we do no wish waking up again

Man's Future
Somehow there remains
a little spark
to light up the universe
while things seem dark.
Let the spark ignite
and blaze again
for all good souls
and all good men.
We must lose the sigh
and never allow
the spark to die.

Spark In The Dark
Welcome to the party
Its only me and you
Tell the world to go away, babe
And Ill tell you what to do
Come over here and kiss me
I want to pull your hair
Turn out the lights and hold me
I want to touch you everywhere
We dont need nobody, baby
We dont need champagne
Ill take you to the deepest,
Darkest, hottest, lovers lane
For a little spark in the dark
Just a little spark in the dark
Dont matter where we sleep
Dont matter where we park
All we need is a spark, spark
Spark in the dark
Just a little spark in the dark
Come around midnight
Well be crawlin on the floor
Burnin with the fever
And yellin out for more
But dont you write it in your
Diary, baby
Dont blab it on the phone
Cuz if your mom and dad find out
Theyll skin me to the bone
Now we dont need instructions,
Baby
Dont you be afraid
It takes a little friction
Thats how our love is made
]from a little spark in the dark
Just a little spark in the dark
Dont matter what you say
No matter what you do
As long as it is me and you
We got a spark in the dark
Just a little spark in the dark, yeah
We dont need nobody, baby
We dont need cocaine
Ill take you to the deepest,
Darkest, hottest lovers lane
Spark in the dark
Just a little spark in the dark
Dont matter where we sleep
Dont matter where we park
All we need is a spark, spark
Spark in the dark

Need A Woman
Its been raining in the trenches all day long, dripping down to my clothes,
My patience is wearing thin, got a fire inside my nose.
Searching for the truth the way God designed it,
The truth is I might drown before I find it.
Well I need a woman, yes I do
Need a woman, yes I do.
Someone who can see me as I am,
Somebody who just dont give a damn.
And I want you to be that woman every night,
Be that woman.
Ive had my eyes on you baby for about five long years,
You probably dont know me at all, but I have seen your laughter and tears.
Now you dont frighten me, my heart is jumping
And you look like it wouldnt hurt you none to have a man who could give ya something.
Well I need a woman, oh dont i
Need a woman, bring it home safe at last.
Seen you turn the corner, seen your bootheels spark,
Seen you in the daylight, and watched you in the dark.
And I want you to be that woman, all right
Be that woman every night.
Well, if you believe in something long enough you just naturally come to think its true.
There aint no wall you cant cross over, aint no fire you cant walk through.
Well, believing is all right, just dont let the wrong people know what its all about.
They might put the evil eye on you, use their hidden powers to try to turn you out.
Well I need a woman, just to be my queen.
Need a woman, know what I mean?

Dark Covering
The moon is getting a dark covering of the dark clouds. See, the moon suddenly vanished. How should I reach to my moon now? She has turned to be so far away and the night is completely dark. This night has been captured with suffering. Darkness of soul, darkness of night has left a haunting mark to my present. You feel I am a cheat? No, I did not cheat you. True, I forever was and till the end will be. Only you I had in my mind and heart. Lost I have myself, she was never mine. Love does hurt like hell.

In One Night
In one night, my fantasy dream come true.
Between me and you.
In one night, you gave me romance.
In one night, I can feel the fire immense.
In one night, you express your emotion
With such a deep passion.
In one night, I can’t deny how I feel.
In one night, you show me your love is real.
In one night, you made me feel complete.
In one night, intensity builds up inside of me.
In one night, I lost my senses.
In one night, I can hardly breathe.
In one night, I went to heaven.
In one night, my dreams come true between me and you.

It All Comes True
I stand here a black man I have no history
I was brought up in east chicago and I grew up on the streets
The chains around the playground were the chains around my heart
The brand upon my shoulder well it reminds you who you are
Chorus:
And it all comes true yes it all comes true
Like a wheel inside a wheel it turns on you
And you think, what have I done? what can I do?
What you believe about yourself
It all comes true
I was just a young girl my mother called me hon
My father was unhappy cause I should have been his son
They said, learn to be a waitress and learn to be a wife
And be thankful for a chance to live an ordinary life
Chorus:
And it all comes true yes it all comes true
Like a wheel inside a wheel it turns on you
And you think, what have I done? what can I do?
What you believe about yourself
It all comes true
My life is a contradiction of sorrow and desire
I drag my heart across the ash to throw it on the fire
Maybe theres a reason and could there be a plan
Or are we all just fools to think well understand
Chorus:
And it all comes true yes it all comes true
Like a wheel inside a wheel it turns on you
And you think, what have I done? what can I do?
What you believe about yourself
It all comes true
And it all comes true yes it all comes true
Like a wheel inside a wheel it turns on you
And you think, what have I done? what can I do?
What you believe about yourself
It all comes true

Someone In The Dark
Written and composed by michael jackson
(opening version)
All alone wishing on stars
Waiting for you to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger whod be my friend
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells you never be afraid
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
Like it was written in the stars I knew
My friend, my someone in the dark was you
Promise me well always be
Walking the world together
Hand in hand where dreams never end
My star secret friend and me
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells you never be afraid
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
Look for the rainbow in the sky
I believe you and i
Could never really say goodbye
Wherever you may be
Ill look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Wherever you may be
Ill look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
(closing version)
Though youre gone star far away
Each time I see a rainbow
Ill remember being with you
Smiles coming through my tears
When someone in the dark reaches out for you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells you never be afraid
Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow
A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow
Look for the rainbow in the sky
I believe you and i
Could never really say goodbye
Wherever you may be
Ill look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Wherever you may be
Ill look up and see
Someone in the dark for me!
