Where I've Been

There's the fear that drives your
Every movement, reason, moment
That you know you've been waiting for
And when it comes, it'll be right won't it
The perfection, the bliss and undeniable
Existence of another soul to
Coexist with, and nothing else is viable
For the place in your soul, it's true

So understand when you know
You can't keep your eyes away
For more than a few seconds
It's a place where I've been
Before, where I am now
Where I never left, and don't
Think I ever will

Pretty Skies

Distraction's attraction
So fatal and flawless
Attraction's distraction
Is left for the lawless
You stare straight up
And then see why
They turn us corrupt
Such beautiful skies
The prettiness taking
The breath that I'm making
As soon as I'm waking

Countless Days

They come like one
Is followed by two
Chased by three
Preceding four
So fast, so fast
My head spins
Around these days

Sad Days

I want the world
I had, I hated
It came with
Simplicity
In all its
Complexity
Welcome back
The broken days
Where it's so
Easy to feel
Cold and lonely
Than just lonely
When in a full
Room, half empty
Maybe
If I close my eyes
The world
Would've created
A perfect myth
Some mystery
For me to sit
In complacency
Along a beaten track
And quiet ways
I'll be home
To kneel
Before the twenty
Wrongs that made me
Thousands of tries
Failed and failed again
These are the days
I belong to now
Where the simplest
Joy was to write
Now is a task
To fullfil
I'm sorry, my love
My story was halted
Quickly faltered
But I'm here again
And I don't
Want
To
Leave
Again
Welcome to the Window

Strange Things To Say

Deserted towns
They're all around
Everywhere
Here and there
Hear them wear
And tear with
Winds which
Swirl swift
Quick like figments
Of broken imagination
Strange days these
Are, strange days

Passerby

Gone, gone, gone
With the wind
A puff of smoke on
Breezes we spin
Gradually, to deny
What we really are
Will make us rely
On the fading spark
Left on the side of the road
He had a name like us
Cursed with a code
For ignorance from us
He was gone, gone
Gone with the wind
I'll miss him, perhaps

Sing Me Another One

Smaller songs that
Swing you slowly
Singing softly
Serenading sweetly
Say "I love you"
Such sly statements
Sinful sentences
Swerving strength
Say "I love you"
Said some day
Soon somehow
Say "I love you"
Say it please
Say "I love you"
Said

I Think She's Someone Else

Dream a little louder
Loud enough to
Shake my head
Turn it inside out
Till her face is
All that I see

Common

Words I breath in
Quickly forgotton
Like a rich man's sin
I'm at the bottom
Where it's colder
Than the heart's ice
Looking over my shoulder
Hoping grit will suffice
Black thoughts done
Gone and signed
My life away on
The words I've rhymed
If it's strength I need
I'll find it elsewhere
But now since I bleed
I'll pretend to care
