Missed Something

I've tried to write this

Fifty times over

Each time I get closer

But somehow still miss

 

I miss something

In what I want you to know

I miss something

In saying I don't want to let go

 

If this is goodbye

Then say it now

I'll give up the fight

I'll let you walk out

 

And forever

I'll miss

You

 

I've loved you like no other

I've never held...

Wednesday


Every Trip, I Feel It,
Like It’s The Last Time.
So I Walk Out As Anyone But Me.
Every Shift, I Feel It,
Like It’s A Lifetime.
Again We Roll Before We Breed.
Every Breath, I Felt It,
Like It’s The Last Time.
So Again I Walk Out
With A Crush On Life.
Every Trip, I Feel It,
Like It’s A Lifetime.
Again We Roll As Anyone But Me.
This Situation’s Overflowing
And I Don’t Know If I’ll Find...

1960

It Came For You In Black And White
When It Was Not That Easy.
It Fostered Homes For You All Your Life
But They Were Not That Easy.
In Third Person We Can All Agree
That The Kennedys Killed Norma Jean.
If Nothing Will Ever Be The Same,
Who Could You Turn Into?
Just Stray Doll, Into Another Day
And Mystery Ensues.
I Want To Take Your Picture.
Where Can I Find This Creature?
Love In 1960,...

Diablo


He’s Back Today
For The First Time Again.
Tomorrow We’ll Carpe Diem.
We Had The Calm
But Missed The Storm’s Path.

Just Continue On This Path In Life
And Hope That Lightning Don’t Strike Twice.
Just Continue On This Path And I-
I Know Diablo Won’t Mind.
Diablo Won’t Mind.

Everybody
Is Running
Out Of Time,
Never Knowing
Which Day Will
Be Yours.

But Missed The

Killer


I Was Planning To Take You Away,
Where I Could Cut You.
I Was Planning On Digging Your Grave
When I First Saw You.
But You Run……….Away………
Inside The Dark I wait Here Awhile
Where I Can Watch You.
I’ve Been Dying To Feel Your Insides
Since I First Saw You.
But You Run………Away………..
I Will Miss Her Something Awful
And We Will Miss Her Something Awful.
And When We Dine, You’ll Come Inside...

Grimwood


The Monsters Could Be Your Friend,
Just If You Help Them On Their Way.
We’ve All Felt The Glowing Eyes
With Chill Bumps And Walked On Graves.
We Help The Monster On Their Way.

In These Sticks……….
In Grimwood………….
Like A Final Fix, Fire Grows.
In Grimwood……………
In These Sticks…………
Fire Grows Like A Final Fix.

A Dark Day I Never Wanted.

Apathetic Empathy


In A Sad World,
With A Broken Heart,
I Will Wait Here. I Will Wait Here.
And All I Got-
Just ‘Till Tomorrow.
I Know The World
‘Cuz I Am Hollow
And Apathetic…….And Empathetic,
Anything While We Wait Around. 
Now I’ve Seen My Kind.
It Really Outta Show By Now.
We’re Apathetic And Empathetic,
Anything, Let’s Go For A Ride.

They Came After Me, Killing My Family.

Me And You Holding Our Breath That Afternoon.
Me And You With Blood On Our Hands
We Drew The Moon Then we Gave It Away.
And If I Get Lost, It Won’t Matter To Me.
I Know That Heaven Lies Just Out Of My Reach.
And If Heaven Is Not For Me Then Hell Won’t Do.
They Think They All Know, But They Don’t
Mimic The Moon And Scorch The Sun,
Count All The Stars ‘Till there’s None.

Feels Like Halloween…………….
Again I’m Rollin’. I’m Drivin’ Safe, Here, In My Car.
I Read A Billboard.....
It Seems That Life, Here, Can Be Bought.
We Time Another……
Oh, How We All Grow Up So Fast.
We Time Another.
All Those Lost Aren’t In The Past.
Again, I’m Rollin’.
 The Fields Are Safe, Here, In The Park.
But They Said So Much For Me.
And Now Here Comes The Rain Clouds.

Yellow

She Said, ”Let’s Go.”
So I Rose
‘Cuz I Know Where The Dead Go.
Though I Grow Too Hollow,
The Dead Leaves By Window.
If I Spoke Into You,
Would I Close Like An Echo?

Her Eyes Glow
Like Shadows.
Her Hair Grows Black Widows.
She’s The Ghost
In My Home,
At My Throat,
Approaching Slow,
That’s The Road All Shall Know Well.

And Her Eyes Glow,
So Here I Go.

Flower Child Folded In My Pocket.
That Little Note You Wrote, I Must’ve Dropped It.
But Count Me In, You Can Paint Me Red.
Though Count Me In Today, Tomorrow’s Dead.
So Paint Me Red, You Can Count Me In
For Just A Trip Or Two. I’m Falling All Over You.
Stars, I’m Howling Bleak,
Come Inside With Me.
Though I Think I’m Falling Through
While You Trip On Me.
I’m Here, In Tune, Haunted.

Curse of the Fuzzy Dice

Again I Scream My Demons Out.
I’ve Torn Into Another Soul.
A Searching Flow.
A Glow Of Hope.
Inside’s Hide Decadance. 
It’s The Curse Of The Fuzzy Dice.
Why Must We Get Along,
When Every Step That You Take Is Wrong?
There’s a Reason Why I Wrote This Song,
‘Cuz Even Evil Has A Place To Call Home,
To Belong.
(Now Something Wicked)
It’s The Curse
(This Way Comes)
Of The Fuzzy Dice.

And Just When I Think It’s Raining……..

I’ve Learned To Love The Pain.
I’ve Grown To Love The Rage.
I’ve Blown Away All The Days
And Hate The Weeks All The Same.

I’ve Got A Story Writing In My Head.
Beheld A Villain And I Saw Red.
Another Mission And I Woke-Up Dead.
Here We Go, Just To Repeat The Same.
Pass The Time, Another Unfinished Game.
I Took A Life, Never Knowing His Name.

Blue

Morphine Pulls The Fire Out Of Me
Even Though, When I Glow,
I Barely Breath.
And It Pulls The Fire Out Of Me,
Even Though, Demons Know
I Barely Believe-

What Kind Lies Seem True
And What I See Through.
The Reasons She’s Blue.

But Won’t They Ever Notice
How This All Came To Be?

Which Song Will Be The Last
To Finish-Off The Act?
The Final Curtain Call
 Which Sends Us All Back Home,
Alone……….
And I……..
Will Remain Here.
In Time, Time Disapears.
We’ve Been Through This Before
But Still, You Don’t Feel The Same.
But Like The Werewolf To The Moon,
I Keep Expecting You.
I’m Plagued By Tricks Of The Night
And Got A Feeling That Something’s Just Not Right.

Ode To My Ebony Silhouette.
My Black Lies, I Forget
Though Take Me Down
‘Cuz I Wanna Forget
My Ebony Silhouette.

Hypnotic, Shadow Sweet.
Through Black And Blue I’ve Got You Beat.
I’m Falling Down Through A Dream
That’s Lost Inside Of Another Dream.

So Vague, Yet So Clear.
I Want You Here.
Wicked Tongue And Raven Flocks.
My Hypnotic, Shadow Fox.

Into A Time Forgotten,
In This Land Of Cotton,
The Grey Men Said That

It’ll Make A Man Feel As Though
 He’s Lost Something.
And With His Dreams………
Up In The Trees…………
He Falls Asleep…………….
Inside The Skies Of Hell, 
To Face The Devil, Himself.

If Not For My Body

When I Believed In No God
I Believed In No Love.
We’re Dying Forever
In This Sunny Weather.

How Did You Live Your Life?
Only To, Observing………
And I Feel You Too.
I Feel It Every Day.
We’re Dying Forever

Maybe I Can’t Win This War,
But It’s Not How I Die,
But Rather, What We Live For.
So Seek The Echo Of The Tribe.
And I Can Sense Despair.
Welcome That Be Of Man,

So We Unconform Into Conformity.
Now Here Comes The Beasts.
They Come To Steal You Away.
And So We Damn The Beasts.

Old Soul


So, I’ll Just Finish My Drink
 And Be On My Way.
I’d Love To Weather But I Can Not Stay.
At Least She’ll Wonder 
What Might Have Been,
Instead Of Knowing How Bad It Is.
I Can Never Sleep
 Even Though She’s Always Still.
I Swear To God I’m Ready 
Though My Eyes Lie Still.
You’re New…………………
An Old Soul………
I’ll Return.
 Got No Time At All.
Without A Whisper.
 Without A Care.

Eternal Bruise

Although I’ve Seen You Years Before,
I Still Have Your Eyes Memorized,
And Although I’ve Lost You Years Before,
I Know Your Eyes Still Mezmerize Like Hell.
Never Old Enough For You.
Never Old Like I Miss You.
Your  Depression Dreamt Me Awake
And How Could You Nevermind?
So Did You Ever Fly That Plane,
Or Did You Sink Under Like An Eternal Bruise?
But I Bet Your Eyes Still Mezmerize Like ...

Disney Fairy

 

Nancy comes in my dreams 

Like a fairy of Disney Land 

Have two wings and song 

Touch hearts with no band 

  

Nancy comes from the moon 

Where the lovely stars shining 

Calls me to join the song 

And to share her in the dancing 

  

Nancy, I love you so much 

Can you call me only once? 

Don't keep me in dreams 

Just come in real to dance

Beauty Song

 

Don't wear contact lenses 
Your eyes are my Ocean
Let me feel your lovely senses 
And see you my Queen. 

Don't use makeup material
Just be same as you are
Rosy cheeks are really natural 
looks for me as star.

Don't cut your shiny hair 
I love it to become so long 
Set free your hair to air 
And let me enjoy the song.

Love Seed

 

To win my heart, cross my roads 

To get my love, you knock my doors 

Let's to start, to earn cruise 

To build a nest within love rose 

  

Adore you much, looking forward 

To keep in touch, even one word 

Eager to fly, to reach sward 

Where your face, shines on board 

  

You're the star, you're my sun 

You're in heart, the only one 

Grow love seed, before ge...

HEART's KEY

Two waves in the sea 
Two branches of the tree 
Two wings of the bee 
These are you and me 
  
In everywhere I go 
I keep your love to grow 
All over my heart's show 
Your eyelashes and brow   

Certainly, I can see 
One heart not a three 
Follow me, or feel free 
I got your heart's Key

Practical Woman

 

 

“To do or not to do”, her daily instruction 
I should always obey, to avoid reaction 
She believes I'll remain in a weak construction 
Wants to be retained in her falling section 

 

Eyes, ears and tongue, three sources to act 
Depending on brain, to judge it in the heart 
She is herself leader, no love in her chart 
“Practical in reality”, She said. This is a fact

No Answer

No Answer

 

Either .. or, Neither .. nor. 

Your answer, is one of four 

Always "NO" or "I don't know" 

But in general "I'm not sure" 

 

Keeping silent is an answer 

Complicates the issues more 

Gaps grow in hearts faster 

To close mainly our main door 

 

Hiding always simple things 

That I'm really pleased to know 

Same as birds lost the wings

Into the Woods

We were lame and we were young,

Walking in the woods,

While singing our song,

Never in my dreams, felt anything wrong,

Thought you were always coming along,

Do not remember where exactly I lost you,

My eyes searched for you in heavy fog,

I continued my journey amidst the rocks,

Shivered through-out the night,

Darkness was blocking my sight,

Always thought that you wer...
