Holly II

As walls come tumbling down
and the new king loses his crown
We all spin round and round
because that is all we know

Time goes, oh so slow
and where it goes, no one knows
I go where nobody goes
but nothing makes it better

This is all i know
you turned a friend into a foe
I love you and you loved me
and soon, soon we will see

We will see what happens next
What was simple, now is complex
I fight injustice like Malcolm X
but it all goes down the drain

And problems fall down like rain
in this whirling, twirling hurricane
I go where nobody goes
but nothing makes it better

This is all I know
you turned a friend into a foe
I love you, and you loved me
and soon, soon we will see

Who knows better than you
which foot fits the shoe
I just cant live without you
but you don't care anymore

And as I walk on through the door
I forgot everything that I swore
I went where nobody goes
but nothing makes it better

This is all I know
you turned a friend into a foe
I love you and you loved me
and soon, soon we will see

Holly

No one has made me feel this way,
this pain I feel will never fade.
I love you more each and every day
but this is the price that has been paid.

You made my world go from black and white;
gave me color, and gave me sight,
to see old things in new light;
And I dream of you every night.

You don't know how much it hurts.
I don't think this could get much worse;
I'm at the end, and you need to know,
Holly, you are my world, I love you so.

You will always be in my heart,
You always have been since the start.
And even though I may part,
you will always have my heart.

None will come and take me away.
None will mean the things you say.
None can replace you my love,
you're my angel, sent from above.

You

You will never be alone
Because I am here
I'm always by your side
I am always near

You have nothing to fear
So grin from ear to ear
Nothing can ever harm you
I won't let anything near

You're closer to my heart
Than my closest friends
I knew from the start
We'd be in it 'til the end

So lay your head down
Sleep tight sweet angel

Where Did My Thoughts Go?

Where do my thoughts go?
They're not in my head...
And as they slip away
I feel it's safe to say
They won't bother me when I'm dead

But if I have any doubts,
then please remind me why
because my head's in the clouds
and my mouth is very dry.

I can't keep my focus
I hardly know my name
And when you ask me a question,
you have to say it again

Because I can't remember who
and I fail to know when
And there's nothing I can do
To have these back again

So tell me if I forget
And let me know where I am
And if I need to stop and sit
Please just hold my hand

This will all be over in a while
Just let me tread on alone
I'll recover all I've lost
And I'll always know my way home

maybe, just maybe

I have fallen
Come close to the end,
but something kept me going,
Love from a long lost friend.
I searched for years
looking for eternal bliss,
the most evasive emotion.
But somehow here
In this place for which
There is no love in my heart
The one land
To which I vowed never to return
I found you there,
And you brought color
To my black and white world.
So I came back
To the town where I was raised
Where I spent,
So many lonely days...
...but love starts at birth
And doesn't end
'til the end of days
So maybe theres something
something to look forward to
and maybe,just maybe
I have found...

Spank

Follow the leader
don't make a decision.
God forbid you think
and are the victim of derision.

It's The End

Smoke rings create
effervescent backdrops
for countries among
warring nations.
Omnipotence is overrated
bleeding forth
through eyes dry
and although they cry
what more can be said?
Babies weep
and mothers cheap
sold for cash.
But I'm not a pessimist
I'm just honest
and everything they said
can be thrown away
like the trash from yesterday.
In the trash
with the rusty needles
and the condom wrappers
from some guy
who's long forgotten.
Look at this mess we're in
and tell me this
is not the end.

Seagull's Fly And Fly

Waves crash on the shore
Afflictions easing more and more
Seagulls fly and fly
Passing over through the sky

See the little boat
Out there steady, calmly afloat
Seagulls fly and fly
Passing over through the sky

Watch the people on the beach
Just a breadth from the angry tide's reach
Seagulls fly and fly
Passing over through the sky

I love sitting here
Sitting on this long wood pier
Seagulls fly and fly
Passing over through the sky

This Place I Love

Colors flash across the screen
Giving way to thoughts I dream
Here comes a girl, I named her love,
In this town I've been dreaming of.

Giant towers crumble down
Leading me straight to town.
I scramble up, jump, and run
Beneath the giant purple sun.

Screams of joy come to me
As I lay by the sea.
Orange skies illuminate
And never ever discriminate.

It has now, come to this
This place I loved, now I miss.
Where it's gone, no one knows,
And yet I sleep, I finally doze.

Escape

Strike me down
Leave to bleed
in your lost
Empathy
I revel in your pain
To get away today
My only Escape
Is these words I save
And these songs I write
Trying to help fight
The never ending war
That is Art.

Crank

Crank
Drain the Pain
Obscenities flow through
Floating amongst plastic heads
Mannequins gone
To a better artificial
Plastic Place
Floating Faces
In a land full
Of winding roads
And flying apostrophes
I feel good.

We'll Walk On The Beach

Come with me on the sand
Come with me and take my hand
We'll walk on the beach just you and me
We'll walk on the beach next to the sea.
Feel the wind blow through our hair
Feel the wind fly without care
We'll walk on the beach just you and me
We'll walk on the beach next to the sea.

Remorse Of Those Gone Before

I'm so scared of the shadows surrounding me
I can only see black all around me
Darkness as far as my eyes can see
There's no light at the end of the tunnel, only dark to see

Cities crumble and oceans evaporate
Because of their never ending envy and hate
The darkness gives way to blue and gray
I can't hear what the faces try to say

The mountains fall and rivers run dry
The faces disintegrate and start to cry
Darkness turning to light in spite of hate
I'm giving it all up and just leaving it to fate

You're My Only Friend

I'm just looking at this bottle
it's my only friend.
The only one now that the end is near.
It'll be with me 'til the end,
my only friend.

I'm just looking at this barrel
it's my only friend.
This gun held up to my fuckin' head.
It'll be my new best friend,
my only friend.

I'm just looking at this butt
its my only friend.
Last cigarette in my crumpled pack.
It'll be with me 'til the end,
my only friend.

Thank You... you are my only friend.

The Answer To Life Is In My Hands

Are we living
Or is this just existence?
I just keep giving
So stop the resistance!
I run all day
Leaving the night for others,
No work no pay
Just babies crying for mothers.
Stop me if you heard
But I can't be just like you.
Not a single word
Could express all the things you do.
Two-faced liars
All the fakes, cheats, and death
Caught in the briers
And the skirt tails of Elizabeth.
They call her the great
So come please helps us in a time of need
Don't depend on fate
Lest you trip, fall, and bleed.
