Convenience Store

I’m not a convenience store open 24 hrs a day
Waiting on your business whenever you say
I’m tired of all this waiting my doors are closin today

I was talkin’ to the white hen
The one up the street
She was telling me how you like a selection of assorted meats
Now I see things clearly
you’re a lowdown dirty cheat

This 7-11 is closing but there are plenty more
Different shapes and sizes it’s still the same old store
I’m sure they’ll serve you with a smile
That won’t be too hard
So go ahead have your pretzels, your ding dongs and your tubs of lard

I’m not a convenience store open 24 hrs a day
Waiting on your business whenever you say
I’m tired of all this waiting my doors are closin today

Demon Song

Demons brawl fighting to win my soul
Tell them they will never win
give into the madness less and less

Torture consumes my solitude
Trying to be better
Erase all that I’ve been taught

My big mouth involves those around me....

Vulnerbility invites weakness
Weakness invites vultures to feast on my remains

Safe in my loneliness
until others have no effect
self pity is the worst offender

My sanity knows no boundries...

Live Life

People let’s make a choice to love and rejoice everyday
People let’s take a chance on love and romance everyday
Choices are given
and life is worth livin’
if you give it
if you give it a try

Let the anger dissapate
Let love saturate your soul
There are too many tears from ignorance and fear
What a waste
Choices are given
and life is worth livin’
if you give it
if you give it a try
BACK TO TOP

Maybe?

A perfect kiss....
I knew it could be like this
surrender yourself to me and expose what is you
I wanna absorb every essence
and explore every crevice
and cherish every thought
that is you

Maybe? This is good.

Embrace this beautiful love as it unfolds
Like a treasure beneath the sea, I too am dying to be found
I’ll open myself to you
and I’ll share what I am with you
I’ll do what I can for you

Maybe? This is good.

No fear I will tread softly upon your heart
and encourage what you love
I will support you and be your friend

Maybe? This is good.

Mother

Lady you’re so far away
but so close in my head
I live and breathe your mannerisms
so I don’t forget

You’re there in all I do
Your voice is loud and clear
Echoing in the background is mine
Dying to stand on my own

To love myself I must love you
To know myself is to know you
To be myself is to be you
and now I’m standing on my own
to say Mother I love you
I’m part of you

Lady you’re so far away
but so close in my head
I live and breathe your mannerisms
so I don’t forget
BACK TO TOP

Nothing Like...

Stab me
Hurt me with your words
your actions and deeds
Then sit and tell me you love me as I bleed

Nothing like the one who hurts you healing you

Kick me around and leave me here to die
then come back and cry
saying you missed me

Nothing like being missed I remember our first kiss

Penny’s Song (Ella)

The light in her eyes shone as bright as the sun did that day
Love encircled her world
The man that she loves stands over her bedside and prays
tears of joy stream down his face

She never felt love til this day
The miracle of life stunned them both
and she never felt content til this day
This is day that Ella was born

Pretty Girl Dreams

I’ve been waiting on you to fill my life up
Waiting on you to fill up my dreams
and the whole time that I’ve been waiting on you
is the time that I should have been looking for me

Fairytale princess
Pretty white dress
Kiss that frog he could be your prince
He’s the key to your happiness

Dinner and roses
A Mercedes Benz
make up the components of a girl’s best friend
but they’ll get you in the end

I’ve been waiting on you to fill my life up
Waiting on you to fill up my dreams
and the whole time that I’ve been waiting on you
is the time that I should have been looking for me

There is no fairytale, no prince, no king in these pretty girl dreams
Pretty girl dreams...

Soul Searchin’

Are you down and out?
Not sure what your life’s about?
Just go on home
Crawl inside your soul
You’ve got to figure out what you want idle thoughts are known to haunt

Do you feel lost?
Wonderin how much a new soul costs?
Thing are whirling way too fast
Are you wishing that your youth could last?
You know you don’t have to be afraid
No one cares how much progress you made

Soul searchin’
Soul searchin’
Soul searchin’
Is what you’ve got to do

Take a good look around you
tell me what you’ve found
If you decide to change your life can be rearranged
If you feel that you’re losing your place take a vacation from the human race

soul searchin...

Spanish Fantasy

Sweet sweat,
Thoughts of you fill my head
Your soft voice so close to my ear
I get chills and nasty thoughts of you
naked, nasty thoughts of you

Temptation
you’re a tease
I like it that way
Your subtilties ignite my flame
Deeper
deeper into me you surge
without touch
you don’t say a word

Ravage me so hard I can’t take it
Love me slow and sweet
Let’s ride off into the sunrise
my spanish fantasy
BACK TO TOP

Stay

The writing on the wall says it’s time to go
The signs in the hall point the way out
The winds of change are blowin down my neck
I really don’t want to leave you but I have to go

Please don’t look at me that way
you knew this day would come
and don’t you ask me what I’m runnin’ from
I really don’t want to leave you but you can’t decide

It’s not that you don’t love me
You don’t want it to be this way
Can you find the strength to say...

Please stay
Please stay
That’s what I want you to say
Please stay
but these words I can’t bear to hear cause I’ve always stayed

In this sick game that we play
you ask me to stay
and I’ve always stayed
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
Please say
please say
Stay
But these words I can’t bear to hear cause I’ve always stayed.

The Ideal

Wonderin’ why? and I am
Wonderin’ how?

I couldn’t see you when you were right in front of me
I couldn’t see you bein’ who you wanna be
I couldn’t see you I thought you would be bad for me
I couldn’t see my eyes were closed in spite of me

Over and over and over again
Blindly seeking the Ideal

Wonderin’ why? and I am
Wonderin’ how?

Searching never finding
Lover after lover I would uncover
I knew you in my life then
shattered scenes of broken dreams

over and over and over again blindly seeking the Ideal

It’s funny what you’ll find in the attic
It’s funny what you’ll find when you don’t know what you’re looking for
I came across a mirror
I wiped it off and saw a reflection of the male side of me....

no more
over and over and over again
Blindly seeking the Ideal.

Web of Deceit

You think everyone lies like you do
You think everyone cheats like you do
You’re tied up in knots in this web we wove together

Too close are those involved
No one’s made a sound
No one hears nothing and no one see nothing
deceptions all around
Everyone’s playing their part in destroying innocent hearts

I feel cheap
I’m too numb to speak
I’ve fallen deep in this web of deceit
I feel cheap
I’m losing sleep in the lies that I keep in this web of deceit

You’ve lied so much you don’t know the truth
false accusations are misguiding you
Your tower of lies has taken it’s toll
Leaving empty remains and embittered souls

you’re tied up in knots in this web we wove together
BACK TO TOP

Your Eyes

As the door closes
It’s the last time I will look in those beautiful eyes
I’m in disguise
How dare you cry
It’s my last memory of your eyes
Your ways not workin’

This smoke filled room is crowded
People keep passin by
The look in your eyes is noticed
you keep wonderin’ why?
I see how you feel ,I feel your pain
You think you’re the only one
But honey, there’s alot of pain out there
your life has just begun

How come you have to hide and push people away
How come you get so high
But not enough to numb the pain
What’s with that anyway?
you’re wasting your life away
You’re way’s not workin’ try mine

How come you get so high?
There’s so much you’ve got goin’ on
You don’t have to hide
There are people you can count on here

You snort a line you feel confident
You’re cool and content
You owe all of your accomplishments to
coke and time well spent
I see you fading away
I fight to bring you back and keep you safe from harm
I see it’s arms embracing you and you’re entranced by it’s dark charms

How come you have to hide and push people away
How come you get so high
But not enough to numb the pain
What’s with that anyway?
you’re wasting your life away
You’re way’s not workin’ try mine
