the paranoia hasnโ€™t settled yet your honored with a medal as a tear stains my shirt the glass has shattered and is spread through the dirt be on high alert for the man in the blue skirt is off telling fables once again oh wait, heโ€™s your friend? never mind then lets pretend this discussion never happened im searching old drawers filled with junk the third one exudes a mystified funk embrace the old smell the origin of which no living man can tell i fell for those tricks but now wiser i am surprise her i can and i must before dawn if the sun should rise she will surely be gone but where would she fly to? eternity canโ€™t stop her if it tried to Iโ€™m sorry youโ€™ve been lied to, your not as pretty as your told but you got a big heart which can never be sold lets grow old and dance as time fades transport my satin shoes to the hills of the everglades endless parades of people chasing their dreams can be seen on big blue screens right there in your living room soon your speakers may blow its at that point you may have to show the world that indeed your mind does still WORK that hazel in your eyes it shines just like a shrine even though this flawed design is an overstated subtle lets talk and show the world that we can be courageous as life goes through its phases and this wont be the last

watch from afar i light a cigar and ponder the direction the reflection from the ice brings a smile to your cheeks youโ€™d been frozen for weeks but when they found your body youโ€™d been frozen for weeks but when they found your body youโ€™d been frozen for weeks taken aback by the abstract crack in the forward momentum weโ€™ve let our sweat drip right into our open gazing eyes but we heed not the cries for they are ours but we heed not the cries for they are mine shoot from your hips as reality dips shoot from your hips as reality dips casually, naturally we fend off the loners of the land for everybody has a creative x2 shoot from your hips as reality dips shoot from your hips as reality dips casually, naturally we fend off the loners of the land for everybody has a creative side when it comes to persecution death defying winter for those without the proper attire glare at the thirsty cactus eases our minds as our backs are pushed to the wall around the corners we creep through the windows we crawl we sing in a clamoring chorus for theres no idea of what lies before us whats behind was designed to unwind our tightly woven minds we climb the rhinos grazing back and sink into the swamp a rebirth of sorts if it pleases the courts your facing a nation of angry on lookers significant insanity the mood is always light this flight could take years your fears intrude your mind while your trying to sleep the captain maps out the motion towards eternal captivity he spits his tobacco he kisses the firefly for the sky is filled beyond imagination with flickering blinding lights sights set the jet drops the troops who have jumped through the hoops time and time again feel the crunch in your palms psalms sung in the church of infinite wisdom the leaves fall where they may the ashtray over flows with each breath we canโ€™t take

pick up that bat prove your worth young man the flame does not need fanning when your standing all alone running home at this point just is not an option have you forgotten how rotten that plum tasted when a stranger placed it in your hand youโ€™ve crammed all that useless knowledge in-between your ears but you still canโ€™t shake my hand where do i stand its not a demand, but simply a concerned question answer at a later time in writing if you please its frightful on these seas the agenda of the waves enslaves us all the final call is screamed to the captain but nothing. happens but nothing. ever. happens peculiar it feels for to have to scrounge for meals is an act quite foreign im pouring out my blood in hopes for a response but then nothing is there for the taking im just out here making my move up north follow if you must for when the dust finally settles i want to be the first face that you see youโ€™re well coached in the art of dramatics in fact your fantastic heres a pat on the back this ropes got no slack and the waters are choppy this beers far too hoppy but my thirst needs a quench donโ€™t be the last kid on the bench with his head tucked in his hat pick up that bat prove your worth young man the flame does not need fanning when your standing all alone running home at this point just is not an option

planet earth has indeed passed the test of the past she leaks out a laugh as the people run fast in her direction to show her their protection she knows every lesson has taught them for centuries since everything now living was once dust this knowledge is a must i can feel my last synapse start to collapse and quickly fade every records been played no need to get ultra analytical few things pass the stages of critical if any at all a call to the wild rings out true the silence returned was you hoping for answers seek the springtime dancers they will set you on the path of least resistance runnin and gleamin with a stunnin beauty by your side increase the volume for the impending showers the tide is low magnificent glow it urges you to keep on pressing forward a flower quite splendid is placed on your pillow the fragrance is fruity and sweet and oh what a treat oh to be surprised by a look in the eyes alliances form, the storm canโ€™t get us all grasp my arm theres no need for alarm lets remain calm and keep this secret for a while with your style and my grace we can face the slanderous traces of the footsteps of the past a dual threat at last your feet on the floor feel the ground around your toes the ebbs and flows sizzle with desire a higher power nods with approving eyes a sinking sensation the salt erodes all modes of transportation the story, doesnโ€™t, always have any moral value your brain freezes for just one moment you look around, and ponder the panoramic view you slay those playful, wretched giants how is this still happening if feels like deja-vu

break down those barriers they carry us no longer Iโ€™m feeling stronger in the sense that theres no roadblock too immense rinse your hands of your long awaited future plans the course we have chosen is closing but a new window appears to be opening wide slide down that rainbow take a bow for we are all so proud of you allow me to introduce myself never mind the grit of my teeth its just a relief to be able to speak without those weak feelings in my legs im the man whoโ€™s tirelessly searching for the days of the lost the cost you ask? certainly my life, but well worth the task i remain in the mask, i lean on old familiar facts what i need now is for all of you to relax Iโ€™m lost in this parade of people seeking the sequel Iโ€™m lost in this parade of people seeking the sequel donโ€™t skip part one the fun is all yours stand up the keys have been handed to you donโ€™t lose em, use em those locks can be picked no longer you feel stronger yet stranger the anger you once felt will pass and at last your true heart will shine

wellllllll hello, your majesty a new tapestry perhaps? claps could be heard from the garden but there was no need for alarm harm was never caused though a clause in the contract was later uncovered smothered, in the bosom of her ever adoring mother the young child of wisdom and courage could sniff out the somewhat objectionable scene a clean break from the mistake of the past would come back to haunt the huntsman whoโ€™s only tool was a large pocketknife received from his father when he was a lad a sad and real glow shined with a burning fever for the clever trendsetter had been amongst the common folk strange how it feels in the soft summer mist a kiss an embrace your face and mine connected as one the sun is shining strangely this morning birds sing of fairytales walk alone through the green trails and find your morning feast unleash everything that holds you back loosen the slack her hair, smelled, of red doves and her love for all living creatures echoed off the walls of the castle the hassle is in getting the fire started the trees show life as the crystals wink at us from the grass in which we stand my hand in yours its time we trapse through the woods where old mushrooms grow our speed is slow, not quite steady but we are prepared for the attack and oh oh OH one last kiss and Iโ€™m off to play the bells lean out the window saved by the spider the plan was simple collect a bouquet of delinquent flowers sassy and small prevent the fall of mankind with one simple gesture one no cup could possibly measure a pleasure meeting me Iโ€™m sure it must have been but Iโ€™m no better than pigs in a pen and if your taking heed to the words that are spoke then in eternity forever but in walks the devil no disguise just his two flashing red eyes surprise surprise surprise surprise he cracks his rank knuckle chuckles, breathes deep no sleep for the wicked just a one way ticket DOWN your frown becomes ferocious all your notions of reality are washed away perception is a matter of persistence keep your distance for you were taught as a child that fire can burn but thats not your concern you yearn to learn the laws of this life put on pause something tells me your soft sipping white wine alone in your loft the webs just been weaved but your words are believed donโ€™t spill your glass i just bought that rug

feed me new material in the form of breakfast cereal put down my spoon? not likely to occur wash your hands in my persian fur the gentle sting will make you sob but help you sing this conversation is melting away feel the burn, it resides in your veins and head for the hills as the new master reigns not supreme but a gleam in his iris try this treat its sweet and silky Iโ€™m as filthy as a hound, as in the mud i roll dripping like snow off the roof of your shelter i felt her hand caress my heart i shutter and mutter a phrase which dare never be repeated Iโ€™m needed in the kitchen the sinks got a clog i blend in like a frog on a mossy lakes edge ive hedged my bets my regrets are well uhhh theyโ€™re tucked away why spoil the day let miles play can the sound be with standable you be the judge but where are your peers donโ€™t look at me mister, i been doin this fuh years these days just drift so you lift up your chin cause at this very moment your life will begin trace your footsteps back to the days when the rats ran outside their mazes and before slight was felt at every word uttered when skin was thick and you had to be quick on your toes look in the mirror, do your clothes really fit have a seat your name revealed epitome of pandemonium

cold, yet devoted a token of soft spoken word herd the cattle, for the rambler is near the smell of fear eminates off your shirt her skirt was riddled with pulsating magic we laughed, at our filthy habits for they have formed, died and been reborn scorn not your brother put to rest your malice let us now sip from the chalice of gold a bold predicament we find ourselves stranded in weโ€™ve landed, in the abyss this time. and all of our guitar strings are broken and our children go hungry for one more night but in the tunnel thereโ€™s light and an electrifying dream its a scene in which we are all so familiar lets build with each other and create a new story for if you ride my train then you are all bound for glory We glide feet first into the thirst of the cold lakes edge weโ€™re promptly met with a pinecone and a whisper Iโ€™m all ears! the sum of fears cannot be calculated sedated and alone i wait fates warning me, adorning me with nervous kisses any last wishes? Iโ€™m sucked in the hole, yet in total control the pine bush speaks, his voice like lavender please salvage my savage sort of sensibility let me relish in my transparent, tranquility hop on my wings as we dip our beaks in the hot springs where dragonflies used to go before the crowds started converging the urging sense of a sustainable flame gave the old game a new meaning sometimes dreaming can be the cure for the door thats exposed first is not always the one thats cursed i found you lurking in the threshold of my thoughts an experience of a harrowing nature your eyes little black needles feeble and fragile your foresight an afterthought caught yet undefinable each breath feels clean and full of life be the future owner of your heart feel the beat have a seat next to me on this incredible journey burn me a bridge and weโ€™ll go for a swim theres no time to drown iโ€™ll throw you a rope
