April 3rd
Don't Shoot The Bird
Freedom Shower
Half Way Home
Indelible
Like Shine
Mo Duinne
No Rest For The Wicked
Parked In Drive
Resolution
Silver Stars
Sold Out
Stolen Ink
Sunlight And Ocean
Taking Not Stealing
The Wave
Which Step
You Never Knew
Step like Mozart
Wind through your eyes
A twisted triangle
Below the milky skies
Behind your beauty
Your smile wears thin
Worlds are spinning
Hearts confused again
Many miles I've traveled -just to be alone-
I' ve busted mountains -trying to find a home-
I won't forget -I won't regret you now
Tripped on my ego
Fell for days
The sun went hiding
I chased it away
Borrowed your jacket
I stole your car
Went for a drive
Up towards the stars
Many miles I've traveled -just to be alone-
I' ve busted mountains -trying to find a home-
I won't forget -I won't regret you now
On the upside of down - I've been living-
Upon A smile -I'm giving-
More than you will know
Many miles I've traveled -just to be alone-
I' ve busted mountains -trying to find a home-
Many miles I've traveled -just to be alone-
I' ve busted mountains -trying to find a home-
I won't forget -I won't regret you now
On the upside of down - I've been living-
Upon A smile -I'm givin-
More than you will know
Many miles I've traveled -just to be alone-
I' ve busted mountains -trying to find a home-
I won't forget -I won't regret you now
On the upside of down - She's been living-
Upon a frown she's giving-
More than you could know

Lately baby I’ve been twisting my brain.
You flip me off because I’m messed up again.
Holding back? Back up... Let me see your face.
Your mouth is dry and that’s one hell of a pace.
So it was too late, your words I couldn’t hear.
You’ll be gone a few years.
When you return you’ll come to learn.
I flew away, don’t shoot the bird.
All this time I’ve created for myself...
You’ll see I’m lost, just a helpless little boy.
What you can’t see is the vision from my dreams.
You shrug it off while I spread my disease.
So it was too late, your words I couldn’t hear.
You’ll be gone a few years.
When you return you’ll come to learn.
I flew away, don’t shoot the bird.
Why don’t you swallow your pride child?
Take a ride before you die.
No more time to beg and borrow.
Have you wept away all your sorrow?
So it was too late, the drugs already won.
I’m too far gone.
They broke me down with only words.
I flew away a broken bird.
This relationship feels like it’s through.
You cut me off and I said fuck you too.
Okay you’re hear I can leave this behind.
Not before I hit this one last time
So load the tin man as fast as you can
Could you tell my fans, my hands are shaking I’ve got to go
And could you please just let them know
Their words I did hear
All loud and clear
They preyed on all of my fears
There is no way I could return.
I flew away don’t shoot the bird.

Marvelous madmen will spin your web
In return you will spit on them
Mother nature will come again
To hollow out your crippled head
Memories from underneath a dream
Surround a scene
Secured by the Queen of peace
Empty lead my friend has filled your pen
Mother told you not to laugh at them
Lack of faith will it draw you near?
Close your eyes until I disappear
Memories from underneath a scream
Sell poetry
Secured by the King of Thieves
Missiles waiting Ringing gently
I think I would like to stay
There are no answers Only questions
Would you like to come and play?
Enter slowly Exit quickly
Unless there is something you would like to say
Don’t you be afraid
Halfway home I think I realized
That I had left my head inside
Turned around got lost I couldn’t see
The marvelous madman staring back at me.
Memories from underneath the breeze
Promote anarchy
Secured by the queen of dreams.

the most wonderful dream-like escape
a forward embrace
the clouds have parted, in the sun you await
and it's beautiful but it must be a dream
life goes it seems
it lifts you up to lets go of me...then takes hold of me
so smile into the picture, it's such a pretty mixture of color
but to a boy or a man it's a flash in a pan, tell me:
is it something worth fighting for?
this indelible ink on my skin, you write from within
this battle is waged but who will win?
and it's pitiful how we seem to change and don't take the blame
for all the ways of our broken days...it leaves me amazed.
so smile into the picture it's such a pretty mixture of color
but to a boy or a man it's a flash in a pan, tell me:
is it something worth dying for?
the most wonderful dream-like escape......

there is no home no hiding place
in the shadows what's a face?
we're all running but not displaced
arms flailing in our beds all day
there's not a drop of sun but in this we are one
on a corner gather around
i can see you looking down
but it's me friend i'm with you now
what can they give you, you've not found?
there's not a drop of sun but in this we are one
no rest for the wicked...or for me
no rest for the wicked...so why try?
i see you laughing what do you think
it's just a game that takes you to the brink
of your spirit? what a joke
we will laugh about it in the morn...
no rest for the wicked...or for me
there's no rest for the wicked...so why try?

Silver stars charred with scars take charge upon his rocket ship
Smoking crack the whip, on his neon trip= ped out flipping like a flake
Cook a cake put down your crooked spoon and take a hit
Daytime is coming soon.
Wrecking cars, banned to bars, visit mars nearly every night
Takes a fist to fight, boy watch out she’ll bite hard down the blvd.
In her yard passed out it’s a quarter to four, too many pills, you can’t find your door
Am I in the way?
Did you hear me say?
Did you know me
When I was low?
From head to toe you
Were much stronger
Something’s different
Something’s missing
Are you pretendin
On a happy ending?
Shoot it up I don’t give a fuck bust a cup break a nut on your little screwed up
Down it’s like a game don’t forget your name
Giving in time again the voices turn back in to violins for a little while you eve cracked a Smile from ear to ear hit a deer
spilled your beer with your one tracked mind
Can’t find the time to get off that line
Am I in the way?
Did you hear me say?
Did you know me when I was low?
From head to toe you
Were much stronger
Something’s different
Something’s missing
Are you pretending
On a happy ending?

met a feeling in your eyes
took a ride on a one way sign
is it all just in my head
or did you choose me instead?
sold out i aim to be, sold out she says.
you were never there for me, you always left.
so now im crying in the bed, this is not a test.
sold out i aim to be, sold out she says.
lied a little it was all made up.
you said for me you would fill my cup.
but all you had was a fist of sand.
made a play on a hollow man.
sold out...
so just listen, make a bed and whisper.

Marked as gifted
My life has now shifted gears
Once pale was my skin
Let me roll it over it’s time to begin
The unknown awaits patiently
While time stand still
Echoes and reflections
Let me tell you how I remember the thrill
Heart pounding quietly in my mind sparked a riot you see
Oh no that wasn’t me
The vision still standing of the man so demanding
O where now where could he be?
You stole my ink
Until I couldn’t think
That’s why I’m through with you.
Taking not asking what was rightfully mine
You stole independence with no reason or rhyme
Then you laughed in my face when I was stuck in the mud
Then pretending a friend you turned around and drank of my blood
Come on now this is no longer a joke
Come hell in basket it’s you I revoke
Heart pounding quietly in my mind sparked a riot you see
O no that wasn’t me
You stole my ink
Until I couldn’t think
That’s why I’m through with you.
You stole my Ink
Until I couldn’t think
That’s why I’m through with you
You stole my brain
Walking around insane
That’s why I’m through with you

Sunlight and ocean
Melts into mountains
Where is the rising of the tide?
Flowers and pixies
Rain under footsteps
The clouds in the east will fade
In the night,
Towering over you
Making a place for you
Heaven can wait for you
In the fire and light
With a cry in the night
Greener than day spring
Liberty is like candy
Freedom lives in a lady in the east
Potent as daises
Mesmerizing in daydreams
Yellow and green will be suddenly
Towering over you
Making a place for you
Heaven can wait for you
In the fire and light
With a cry in the night
Pretend you’re a goddess
I won’t turn my head
Pretend you’re a princess
I heard what you said
Defending your kingdom
Built upon sand
I’ve tasted your garden
The fruit of the land
Doo doot do du do dut dus………….
Towering over you
Making a place for you
Heaven can wait for you
In the fire and light
With a cry in the night
top
walking in the rain
you were there what were you whispering?
leaning your head
making grins bending and listening.
i was confused
not quite together making a face.
why so quiet dear?
where is the music you used to play?
i was pleasantly surprised, a sharp light to the eyes...
taking not stealing
a man with a gun
talking to himself in county park
asks me to say
in two words or less if i knew the hour
i was confused
humming this tune to the madness
i looked at him and loudly i spoke, i said:
"One, Two, Three" then i was gone.
but i was feeling a bit surprised, a sharp light to the eyes
taking not stealing
