Catching Glimpses

On the playground of my very first day
I was the new kid and new playtime cast away.
What happened next, now feels like fate
I started singing about my feelings
(off the top of my head)
Just to cope with the pain.
It's probably pointless and needless to say
But if you don't mind, have the time, here it goes anyway.
I now know why people say practice makes
perfect and patient persistence pays.
It was one fine day
in the month of May
Many years had come along
and many years had passed away
You know My hope was nearly gone
when "My Mind" hit airwaves.
And into motion, it set the wheels of change
Now I'm catching Glimpses of a life
I always dreamed that I’d attain.
I'm catching glimpses...
And ever since it started happening
It's like I'm living in an alternate reality
Things are starting to look up for me.
I'm catching glimpses...
Won't let opinions be the death of me
While everybody repeats unattainability
All my dreams are becoming reality.
I'm catching glimpses
Of you throwing glances
My way
My only wish is
That we'll take our chances
One fine day.
Now maybe it was all a misunderstanding
Or maybe it was my mistake
But now you know that I know
Behind my back You hang
With fork tongued friends
Always talking out the side of their face.
I'm often looking in the mirror
But I’m Staring at a strangers face
You know I’m trying to see it clearer
Through the blue of Me and You
And the void that all this waste creates.
I used to be the sunrise
And you used to be the sunset
But that was in the golden old days
When our love was our best bet.

I Woke Up A Work Up
02:14
|

I woke up,
Standing in the front yard
Alarms going off
While The only look
They gave me was crazy.
And I,
Remember when I came to.
I looked up at you
Busting out the front door,
like the cold
Both guns a blazing
You know I don't
Know what I was up to
But I can assure you
Memory of the events
Had left me feeling tired and hazy
'Cause when the
Gun came out, spoke his mind
The Truck tire died
Vertical my opposite
Curled up like a baby
And all I could think,
Think on repeat,
was...
Is she coming, Is she coming
Is she coming, Is she coming for me
Is this really happening?
(Or is it a bad dream?)
(Or is it just a dream?)
Is she coming, Is she coming
Is she coming, Is she coming for me
The thought terrifying
I questioned everything.
Whoa...
Whoa...
Whoa...
Whoa...
Is this really happening
Is this really happening
Is she coming for me

If you give me all of your love
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa, Whoa
Whoooaaa
I'll give you my all
If you give me all of your love.
You know,
if it feels good
then I feel great
A hundred thousand million lifetimes
I would patiently wait.
You know,
If I don't feel
and it feels fine
I'm probably feverish for your body
want your's next to mine.
Take a little walk with me
on down the street?
When you hold my hand
My heart skips a beat.
You know,
If I don't feel
and it feels fine
You got me blinkin' 'bout your body
baby all of the time.
The way you give me all your lovin'
makes my life complete.
You got me clapping my hands,
You got me stomping my feet.
I’m addicted to you baby
‘Cause your Love’s so sweet
I can’t live without you
Life would be obsolete.
You know I'll give you my all
If You give me all of your love
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoooaaaa
You know I'll give you my all
If You give me all of your love

Cemetery Blues

If you love me baby,
Please, won't you let me know.
I said,
If you really love me,
Won't you tell me so.
You've got,
a mortgage on my body, baby,
You've got,
a lean, clean, on my soul.
You've made me love you, baby,
But you don't love me no more.
I woke up this morning, baby
To see, you walking out my door.
I woke up this morning, girl
And asked you where you going?
That's when,
You said that you were leaving me, baby,
That's when,
You said you had to let me go.
I couldn't see any tears in your eyes
Because you never looked up from your phone.
And I just cried.
To get you to love me, baby
I would, pay absolutely any price.
To get you to love me again, pretty baby
I would gladly lose my mind.
Now I know,
Why people say don't follow your heart
Now I know,
Why people say love is blind.
Because I can only see darkness now
For your love, I cut out my eyes.
I don't have nobody, baby
No one, not one to call my own.
I talk with ghostly beings and
Shadows, sitting on their headstones.
You know,
I started understanding them, lately.
You know,
They talking bones in riddles and moans.
Everyone calls me crazy, because
I calls this cemetery home.

Adam and Eve

She was only even
ever really even with him
For the green.
And the gas it takes
To get to the places
That she really wants to be seen.
She was only with him for the green.
As obscene as it seems
As obscene as it seems
She was living her dreams
And with a bat of her eyes
She could get him to do nearly anything.
And he loved her
But she didn't love him.
And that's the reason that we're really even in the mess we're in.
I said,
he loved her
But she didn't love him.
And that's the reason that we're really even in the mess we're in.
She took a pound of flesh
Before she went straight for his spleen.
She was only with him for the green
And the gas it takes to get to the places
That she really wants to be seen.
She took a pound of flesh
Before she went straight for his spleen.
She was only with him for the green
And the gas it takes to get to the places
That she really wants to be seen.
And the gas it takes to get to the places
That she really wants to be seen.
She was only even ever really
even with him for the green.
And the gas it takes to get to the places
That she really wants to be seen.
She was only with him for the green.
