Just Passing Time
She was grasping for a way to tell us all
The hurt she felt inside
Were all too happy she says
Lets have a war
And the night digs deeper in
Theyre just some words to pass the time
Some words to pass the time
Now when the silence gets to be too much
I can feel the soul searching
Where do I go when Ive lost my cause
We are the stories
Even the good ones let me down
There all just words to pass the time
I used to be so sincere
And maybe I still am
And all this small talk Ive been reeling off
Is slowly getting out of hand
I mix real feelings
With the ones I wish I had
And I catch the most important ones
In between them all
Sometimes it seems like theyre all just words
To pass the time
And then weve lost our time
And weve wasted out words
And all the strain is gone
Sometimes its too unreal to believe
Just dont give it all away
Get a grip
Causes sometimes there are just words to pass the time
I said Im too high Im too high
And Im scared of falling down
Ive just been grasping for words
To make you want to stay
To make it worthwhile
I dont want spend the rest of my life
Just passing time
I dont want to spend the rest of my life here
Just passing time

Time Will Pass You By
Written: j whys, d fekaris, n zesses
X4: dont let it pass you baby
1:
Passing seasons over fade away
Into misty clouds of autumn grey
As I sit here looking at the street
Little figures quickly moving feet
Im just a pebble on the beach and i
Sit and wonder why
Little people running around
Never knowing why
Chorus:
Life is just a precious minute baby
Open up your eyes and see it baby
Give yourself a better chance
Because time will pass you
Right on by (right on by)
2:
This big old world is spinning like a top
Come and help me now and make it stop
All you have to do is live for now
Come along with me Ill show you how
Take my hand Ill show you how to live
Why wait until tomorrow?
Take my hand Ill lead the way
To a brighter day
Chorus:
(dont let it pass you baby) time
Time is gonna pass you by so quickly
And it waits for no man
No no oh baby

Strange Currencies
I dont know why youre mean to me
When I call on the telephone
And I dont know what you mean to me
But I want to turn you on, turn you up, figure you out, want to take you on
These words, you will be mine
These words, you will be mine, all the time
The fool might be my middle name
But Id be foolish not to say
Going to make whatever it takes,
Ring you up, call you down, sign your name, secret love
Couldnt I take you in and make you mine?
These words, you will be mine
These words, you will be mine, all the time, oh
I tripped and fell, did I fall?
What I want you to feel, I want to feel it now
You know with love come strange currencies
And here is my appeal:
I need a chance, a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance,
A word, a signal, a nod, a little breath
Just to fool myself, catch myself, to make it real, real
These words, you will be mine
These words, you will be mine, all the time, oh
These words, you will be mine
These words haunt me, hunt me down, catch in my throat, make me pray,
Say loves combined, oh

Unspoken Words
My thoughts are going back - back to the time
When I was young to live a life
A life of lies - full of lies
Then you came into my life
And youve changed so many things
That Ive done before - that Ive done before
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way
You treated me the right way
You always said dont give up
Some day you will see what I have done
And when I start thinking about me
Then I find out
You did it right - just right
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way
Unspoken words - so many unspoken words
They cannot lie to me anymore
Unspoken words - words so full of meaning
They cannot lie, theyre from inside
Unspoken words
Back to start again - were working still together
More than ever - better than before
Better than before
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way - dont leave me this way
Unspoken words - so many unspoken words
They cannot lie to me anymore
Unspoken words - words so full of meaning
They cannot lie, theyre from inside
All those unspoken words so many, many unspoken words
They cannot lie to me anymore, oh yeah
Without you Ive been so alone
Dont leave me this way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Unspoken words...

If I Dont Tell You Now
Ooh ooh oh yeah
I kept it inside for the longest time and I cant keep keeping it
All this love thats inside of my heart
Maybe its safer not to say that I care
Maybe this road wont lead me anywhere
But if I dont tell you now (if I dont tell you now)
I may never get the chance again (I may never get the chance again)
To tell you that I need you, tell you what Im feeling
If I keep these feelings in
And if I dont say the words (if I dont say the words)
How will you hear whats inside my heart
How will you know then
If I dont tell you now
Ohhh
Id do anything to be in your dreams and I cant stand standing by
With this dream thats inside my heart(heart)
Maybe Im only gonna make a mistake
And theres a chance maybe my heart will break
But if I dont tell you now (if I dont tell you now)
I may never get the chance again (I may never get the chance again)
To tell you that I need you, tell you what Im feeling
If I keep these feelings in
And if I dont say the words (if I dont say the words)
How will you hear whats inside my heart
How will you know then
If I dont tell you now
Ooooooh
How will you know youre inside my soul
Oh its driving me crazy
Cause you dont see, youre the world to me
Im so afraid to see
The way that I feel for you
If I dont tell you now (if I dont tell you now)
I may never get the chance again (I may never get the chance again)
To tell you that I need you, tell you what Im feeling
If I keep these feelings in
And if I dont say the words (if I dont say the words)
How will you hear whats inside my heart
How will you know then
If I dont tell you now
Ohhhh ohhhh
If I dont tell you now

Bridges
All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day youll find youre walking
Lonely
Baby i
Never meant to hurt you
Sometimes the best intentions
Still dont make things right
But all my ghosts they find me
Like my past they think they own me
In dreams and dark corners they surround me
Till I cry I cry
Let me take this time to set the record straight
Let me take this time to take it all back
Let me take this time to tell you how I felt
Let me take this time to try and make it right
But you can
Walk away
Be all alone
Spend all your time
Thinking about the way things used to be
If love feels right
You work it out
You dont give it up
Baby
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
You should take some time maybe sleep on it tonight
You should take some time baby heed the words I said
You should take some time think about your life
You should take some time before you throw it all away
I aint got the time
To sit here and wait around
But I got the time
If you say Im what you want

x12-COLD WATERS
(First poem after the introductory poem of DEAD PETALS)
Cold waters rushed down through her;
Hurting…stabbing…filling her in.
She shivered - then felt her body numb.
How good it felt to hurt that way…
where words are lost,
there’s no much more to say;
Feeling the waters through her skin
to soothe the pain inside.
Hurting more to forget the wound she hide.
Hurting until there’s no vainer than vain…
hurting more to ease the inner pain.
Tears rolled down unnoticed-
as she sat there all alone;
Waiting, always waiting…
for her body to get drowned.
But time seems to play a game with her,
and torment never seem to end.
Strong web of time gleamed clearer,
how she badly need a friend.
But it’s better to hurt that way…
where words are lost,
there’s nothing left to say.
She let the time slowly pass by…
‘the petals shall fall and the water shall flow’;
she never had the time to question why.
Minutes rolled like drops of water;
Time wheeled like a touch of forever.
Still, she let the time to slowly pass by…
‘the petals shall fall and the water shall flow’,
she never had the time to say goodbye.
Yet, her body betrayed her,
So she stood up.
And then for a moment later…
blood flowed like the cold waters.

Dont Know What To Do, Dont Know What To Say
(odette quesada)
I have loved you only in my mind
But I know that there will come a time
Youll feel this feeling I have inside
Youre a hopeless romantic is what they say
Falling in and out of love just like a play
Memorizing each line I still dont know what to say
What to say...
Refrain:
Dont know what to do whenever you are near
Dont know what to say my heart is floating in tears
When you pass by I could fly
Every minute every second of the day
I dream of you in the most special way
Youre beside me all the time
I have loved you and Ill always will
Call it crazy but I know someday youll feel
This feeling I have for you inside
Im a hopeless romantic I know I am
Memorized all the lines but here I am
Struggling for words I still dont know what to say
Dont know what to do whenever you are near
Dont know what to say my heart is floating in tears
When you pass by I could fly
Every minute every second of the day
I dream of you in the most special way
Youre beside me all the time
(instrumental)
Every minute every second of the day
I dream of you in the most special way
Youre beside me all the time
All the time...
All the time...
All the time...

Smile an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Dont ever let me find you gone
cause that could bring a tear to me
This words have lost their glory,
Lets start a brand new story, now my love
Right now therell be no other time
And I can show you all my love
Talk in everlasting words
And dedicate them all to me
I will give you all my life
Its here if you should call to me
You think that I dont even mean
A single word I say
Its only words and words are all I have
To take your heart away

Again
Verse i
Sorry I never meant to hurt you
You know I really love you
And if you give me one more chance Ill prove it to you
Stop! cuz I dont wanna hear it
Please dont say your same old speech
Another time, I think I have it memorized
Hook
Again, boy lied to me
Again, and youre hurting me again
Ive made up my mind and I wont take you back this time
Again, dont start calling me
Again, no apologies again
I wont change my mind
I wont take you back this time
Verse ii
Im sorry, those words for you are easy
You think that they appease me but I know now
Theyre just two words you use to play me
Stop! cuz I will not believe it
This time Im leaving all the hurt and pain behind
So I can just be happy once again
Bridge
Happy once again
This time I will find someone to love me
And find someone to really be my friend
Happy once again
Never will I let another hurt me
Like you hurt me so, again

Digital
Never fear the lust which thrives on honey -
Flowers which are in bloom -
The days of gloom -
I am dormant to doom -
I pass time -
By the time which passed -
Words engraved will never last -
From future to the fires of my past -
The life you live -
Is my digital format -
Codes are meant to be broken -
Pass the words -
As the reaper keys my keeper

My Life
I would really like to know you better
But sometimes Im afraid that its not meant to be
I would like to believe in something higher
But I cant get a grip on all the little things
When the night comes I cannot sit still you see
And the years they have not been so kind to me
Got a gallery of figures standing all in a row
And every single figure has a soul of its own
But I never look back
Never look back
Dont turn your back on me
(chorus)
(hey yeah) my life has come unraveled again
Like so many threads
(hey yeah) my life has begun unfolding
In so many pieces
(hey yeah) my life has come unraveled again like
So many threads in the wind - drift away - drift away
Theres a time and a place
For understanding
And a time when action speaks louder than words
And I dont seem to get no indications
And I dont know how to get through to you
And when time like the pyramids
Has worn away
All the mountains and the valleys
Of the words that we say
We have got to make sure that something remains
If we lose each other weve got no one to blame
So never look back
Never look back
Dont turn your back on me
(chorus)

3 Part Poem
Many a time things happen
We know in our heart it is so
but chosen not to believe
N when the news of it finally come
We fall apart cause we had a feeling
it is so n chosen not to believe
Had we chosen to believe
Can it be avoided in time
I dun think it will be so
Things often happen for a reason
We know not but may in the future
when we think back to now
Like the old folks often know
When it is their time to go
Weather it is peaceful or not
Time to go is time to go
weather we want it or not
Like Grandma seem to have know
the day before she pass away
She seem okay but like she knew
it was time to go she had ask us to take care
but i was not there, as some of us were not
It was a sad time but it had pass
I had remember her telling me once
Girl u can do anything if u want
I have kept it in my heart those words she say
N still can't help feeling sad when
I think of those words she say

She Bangs The Drums
I can feel the earth begin to move
I hear my needle hit the groove
And spiral through another day
I hear my song begin to say
Kiss me where the sun dont shine
The past was yours
But the futures mine
Youre all out of time
I dont feel too steady on my feet
I feel hollow I feel weak
Passion fruit and holy bread
Fill my guts and ease my head
Through the early morning sun
I can see her here she comes
She bangs the drums
Have you seen her have you heard
The way she plays there are no words
To describe the way I feel
How could it ever come to pass
Shell be the first shell be the last
To describe the way I feel
The way I feel
Have you seen her have you heard
The way she plays there are no words
To describe the way I feel
How could it ever come to pass
Shell be the first shell be the last
To describe the way I feel
The way I feel
Have you seen her have you heard
The way she plays there are no words
To describe the way I feel
How could it ever come to pass
Shell be the first shell be the last
To describe the way I feel
The way I feel

Snakedance
(jack hues)
Lets rent a place in town
Somewhere we can call our own
Lets knock these barriers down
We need to spend some time alone
Everything in the world has a name
Oh doesnt it make you feel
Like youve moved into a rented apartment
Everything is real
But it doesnt belong to you
Chorus:
All the words are dead, so we need to
Snakedance
All the words are dead, so we need to
Snakedance
Lets get that empty room
But first I really must be sure
Every word, every name you know
Will vanish when we close the door
Just say oh (all the words are dead)
Just say yeah (so we need to snakedance)
Just say ugh (all the words are dead)
Just say ooo (so we need to snakedance)
Wrap yourself around me
Help me start again
Wrap yourself around me
And girl lets snakedance
Snakedance
Dont give me talking, give me snakedance
All the words are dead, so we need to
Snakedance
Nothing more be said, so we need to
Snakedance
If logic is a glass bead game
And science is an iron wheel
And your life is a riderless horse
Dragging you by the heel
You need a place where you can concentrate
On what it is to be
Dont think, dont speak any language
The silence in the room
Is all that belongs to you
Wrap yourself around me
Help me start again
Wrap yourself around me
And girl lets snakedance
Repeat chorus twice

It Takes You No Time To Get Here
(words & music: per gessle)
Published by jimmy fun music
Why dont you take the rest of the day off
You do deserve a break
Follow that road, it aint long
Just cross that silver lake
Yea, pass the pond, the off-white fence
When you see the mailbox to the left youve made it all right,
No way to go wrong
All you do is blow that horn
It takes you no time to get here
Just drive out of town today
It takes you no time to get here and when
Youve arrived you might as well stay
You might as well stay
Why dont you leave your desk for a short while
You do deserve some time
Enjoying the other side of life you forgot to memorize
Stay in the sun, reach for the moon
Make a little love in the afternoon
Youre doing all right, no way you go wrong
This is the place where you belong
It takes you no time
No time to get here

Fickle companions
Words come and go
Fickle companions
Like time, that changes
Without warning
What remains constant
Is the deeper knowing
That what we feel
Is true
Unfettered by words or time
Nor counted in lives
That once born
Must, pass on
Our story shall continue
From the past
Into the future, even when
The present, meanders away

Last Words
Words that stick in our minds
we all wonder what the last ones will be
romantic to a lover final goodbye
a fighter gasping to fight till the end
a loner uttering a change to late
a prisoner express his hatred past
words that touch, some that hurt
but to some we don't hear their words
instead we see the tears and anguish in their eyes
there were some great lives, some bad ones
the ones that are missed are lost souls
flowing in time for us to catch and hear
their last words
it's hard to remember those anguish words
tears and cries hide those words
remember those words bad or good
it's the last time you'll hear their voice
last words to live by, cherish life

Time
You use it up throughout the day
But no one seems to have the time
The good old days, they always make
You spend your time just buying time
You move with such a steady pace
That never lets you pass the time
For love, or money, or goodness sake
They’ll help you through this trying time
I’m still ticking away and turning your follicles light gray
What you save or you waste, either way, there’s no time to wait
With time on your hands, you have all the time you want to kill
In a matter of time, but it’s life, so it’s just about time
Sometimes you give the time you take
Down to its base like turpentine
Behind closed bars or free to play
Everyone is serving time
Way too brave or slave to fate
None of you can master time
Where you go, who’s to say?
You’ll find me, time after time

Dont Make Our Love A Crime
Words and music by rick nielsen
Give me passion, Ill make it good
Im not crazy, just misunderstood
And I wanna be caught with you
Oh yeah

Didnt do it, Im no enemy
Now I wanna be blamed with you
Oh no
Dont you make our love a crime
Please dont make our love a crime
If you do well all regret it in time
So dont you make our love a crime
You murdered just a part of me
Im still alive and breathin free
I wanna be punished with you
I know what youre goin through
You gave me a fatal bite
I wanna spend my time with you, you, you
Dont you make our love a crime
Please dont make our love a crime
If you do well all regret it in time
So dont you make our love a crime
I know what youre goin through
Its happened to me once before
And I know what youre gonna do
I wanna spend some time with you
Its stronger than it was before
And Ive saved it up for you, you, you
Dont you make our love a crime
So please dont make our love a crime
If you do well all regret it in time
So dont you make our love a crime
A crime, no
