Counterfeit
There is a feeling we feel
That likes to call itself 'love'
To make us lower our guard
And say things that we don't mean

Back in the Day
It's the final day of the routine seven,
The jig is nearly up,
Its back to work come morning time,
Till then we'll take a sup,
Sure Nealon's is the place to go,
Its usually quiet at this time,
Leave your gaf and start to walk,
And then call in to mine
The laughing and the chatting,
As the stout begins to flow,
Suddenly its last orders,
And then we'll have to go
I can't help but feel so...

Reader discretion advised. “The Curse and the Cure”
I hurt for you,
Then, now, and my whole life through.
I hurt for him, her and the next,
For last time and this time, I’m a motherfuckin wreck.
No body knows that shit but me,
That this butterfly ain’t as free as she’d like to be.
I’ve lived this way,

To unlock the anacucis of your affections to me would more beautiful than a strand of your auburn locks

They tell us;
“You are not entitled to anything.”
But, somehow we feel that’s wrong.
The birds have food,
the beasts have water;
and they can find a mate.
They tell us;
“The world is harsh,
it hands you nothing.”
But, humans seem to make it worse.
Your rules, and laws and boundaries of the mind;
enslave us to earn a dollar,
while you stand and jeer and watch.
They tell us;

Remember When
Remember when we acted so sly,
Going to lunch and getting high?
Remember when we camped and drank all night;
all of us glowing in the fires light?
Remember the girls we used to date,
How they never used to make us wait?
Remember the time we all skipped school?
Always together, forever, free and cool.
Remember how we all dressed the same,
And thought those over 20 were lame?
Remember ...
