With A Soul Like Mine

With a soul like mine who could sit still.

How can I see a sunset and not want to chase it down?

How can learn about something I don't want to do,

And see the full circle come around?

Strange Hit

Took a strange hit.
Built the life of my dreams,
Still the pieces won't fit.
I want to rearrange it.

Stack in one hand of the pieces all mixed up.
Count my regrets on the other hand,
Then throw away the lot.
Make room for a happy thought.

So I go in my dreams,
And I'm walking in the rain,
Soaking wet blue jeans,
Big Smile Beams
Get to a place where me and happiness meet.

Keen familiarity.
Knowing what I need and I run,
Towards the right path.

Would it be feasible,
Could it be easier?
Please let it ride.
This is my kind of life.  
Wake up to reality,
a sharp stinging knife.

Mismatch It

Mismatch it

Fucking Fantastic

Twist the words I said up,

Then offer to gift wrap it.

Is there anything else?

You plead insanity.

What exactly does that have to do with me?

Don't try to cover reality

With clouds of bullshit matter.

You're unbelievable...

So scattered.

Matter of fact you're exactly,

The part of this world I could do without effortlessly.

So you might want to go back into your little corner of the world.

It's the one I don't lose sleep over.

You've given me plenty of reasons to shut you out.

Reword it,

Try and re-earn it.

Can't cross that bridge 

Unless you can unburn it.

Everyone here knows you 

don't have a heart of gold in,

They won't believe an ounce

of what you told them.

And the poor few who have

bought what you sold them

Will see it all eventually.

When they come back at you,

I hope you think of me.

Forsaken Life

Little girl only knows the ways of her little world.
She doesn't know her life is bad.
Why would she doubt the choices of her Mom and Dad?
Put out of home and bounced around,
Told everyone else was bad.
Little girl, poor little girl,
Naive for that I'm glad.

What is wrong with you?
How did you do such damage no one can undo?
Maybe I would understand if I took a walk in your shoes,
But I refuse to chance catching crazy.

At the root of it all,
Your sadness radiates.
When times just get to be too much,
You self medicate,
The pain away but just for now.
But relief, it comes too late,
Try you might to numb yourself,
As pain does lie in wait.

So why do you hold on?
Live to sleep, why do you wake?
What's the point of living,
When Life you so forsake?
We hurt for you although in vain.
With our hearts bleeding
We put your name in prayers,
But no amount of pleading,
Penetrates one so unaware.
