Lifted Drums like machinations Lacking patience Patients waiting For their treatments Walking stalkers stalking soundly Sound surrounds me Wound like toys simply abounding Doctors kneeling on their tables Mrs. Stables Watching worlds above the ladle At the churches, near the stables Horses run and Sally cradles All their daughters All their fabled All their wishes that they’d Waited on for years Until they stated That they’re false and those they’ve hated Were the ones they’d not abated Then created Friendships with them and truncated This relation By their words they came and left them In the rain then Shot their neighbors Became raiders Of their souls and they had shaded Their parades their friends had stated They were friends then in the end they End up dead and all their comrades walked away To their homesteads And they stared at constellations Leaving patience To the wind they walked away from, all their friends

Sometimes I make people laugh About my own dreams And sometimes I wish them well Even when I towards them steam And sometimes I wait for them When I don’t want them to catch up And sometimes I give them gifts When I want them to seize up I mean they weren’t loving me So why should I love them They weren’t treating me ok So I’d rather them be dead My love is all my time I don’t care who you are I need my own partition Unless you want a war And sometimes I have their hearts And I don’t give them time On occasion I will live as though I only live to rhyme Completion of my own goal Is what I need for me And travelling across the Earth Seems like what It’d be I mean they weren’t loving me So why should I love them They weren’t treating me ok So I’d rather them be dead My love is all my time I don’t care who you are I need my own partition Unless you want a war Paying time to certain ones To whom I dare not speak Would be to me the equal Of being bit with teeth I wish I were just somewhere else And I wish I had my time But instead I’m standing here Making sure you’re in line I mean they weren’t loving me So why should I love them They weren’t treating me ok So I’d rather them be dead My love is all my time I don’t care who you are I need my own partition Unless you want a war

Given my mind I’d expect to be plainly Oblivious to the pieces in sight That combine to make the life that I need here Make the life that I have always desired I understand the way to life Is not always the one I’d like But if I can I’d like to try Cause nothing else would feel quite right Given my heart I’d expect to be plainly Oblivious to the pieces in sight That combine to make the life that I need here Make the life that I have always desired I understand the way to life Is not always the one I’d like But if I can I’d like to try Cause nothing else would feel quite right Given my place I’d expect to be plainly Oblivious to the pieces in sight That combine to make the life that I need here Make the life that I have always desired I understand the way to life Is not always the one I’d like But if I can I’d like to try And I will never leave that fight

Days Away 05:23
Given my own situations and how I spend time I’d expect my patience to run out on the line But here I am just making my way through the grind Nevada desert baking my shoulders and from behind I cannot wait for the day you can say I am gone I cannot wait for the day you can say I am gone Pacing through the metaphorical place That I call my desert of emptiness and space Looking for a destination I can find That will treat me ok, treat how I like I cannot wait for the day you can say I am gone I cannot wait for the day you can say I am gone It was my imagination, to say I was gone I could not have run away, I’d think it was wrong Living here in my own home is what I’ll do My imagination will make that feel new I can wait for the day you can say I am gone I can wait for the day you can say I am gone

Living the same, dropping the pain Begin a new life, do not live the same A melody works, for expressing hurt But newly changed men, are not so curt Don’t care About the past Just begin Again Don’t care About the past Just begin Again Having a time, time of your life Calling it out, oh your old strife Wishing away, all your sorrow Was changing your mind, reversing your soul Don’t care About the past Just begin Again Don’t care About the past Just begin Again Woah, Woah Woah, Woah Getting outside, getting ahead Doing things better, doing them when You should and you need to, so you can be good To all those who you serve, and those to you would

Well I’m not afraid, but I’ve had doubts Friends are gone away, ‘lone and without I am sitting here, wondering what to Like about the world, I was born to love Can you see the demeanor Can you see the water again Can you see the water again Sun is flowing in, right to my room Wind is blowing these, trees to the moon Flowers blooming right, up to my knees Pollen coming out, do spare me please Can you see the demeanor Can you see the water again Can you see the water again

Paintings 03:37
Courteous broomstick Dusting like magic Cerulean paintings Inside Glowing through windows Art begins to glow The sun’s rays do go To shine Though Earth keeps turning And we are all hurting The sun is there So bright Good men and women Are losing their ways They lost all the paintings In their lives And though we are seeking Those colors, ones peaking They seem to be leaving Our eyes Though Earth keeps turning And we are all hurting The sun is there So bright Though Earth keeps turning And we are all hurting The sun is there So bright So bright

And I feel like love

Midnight neighbors they can hear me, and they sigh Interest lacks among their parties, I won’t cry Me I simply ponder on the, human race Yet all those who walk around me, they will waste Their minds, and their time And won’t find, nothing quite Like they’d like, to realize They can try, all they’d like No man understands my problems, or my ways I’d prefer all things be simple, not a maze If the stress upon my shoulders, breaks my mold I may have no single choice, but to fold Their minds, and their time And won’t find, nothing quite Like they’d like, to realize They can try, all they’d like

Forever 04:55
I make a wife, out of her She takes my hand, concurs And we decide, for sure That we are, for Ever We buy our first, home It’s empty just three, rooms I look back at the door And realize this is for Ever (Sundressed nature sings, and she brings, me by) As 20 years go, by Our children by our side I realize I, regret my life And I would like, my freedom right Forever

Metallic canopies have fallen through Corruption contemplates what to do Sailing finally to edge in sight No winter’s master knows that life Whoa Whoa Can you understand that Certainty ain’t happiness Whoa Whoa Can you understand that Simpleness is loveliness Snow caresses the shoulders of thought Completing the destiny of the lost Parity seems ended among the group And that has thrown them through a loop There was no way to last There was no way to have\ Whoa Whoa Can you understand that Certainty ain’t happiness Whoa Whoa Can you understand that Simpleness is loveliness Failing lives continue on The bitter chill outlives their song Their own pasts may still haunt them But here they shall now plant a new stem
