Colored rainbows
engulfed in sound
dark shapes dancing
moving all around
the sound resonates deep within
it forces movement, can't suppress the grin
feet start to tap, hips begin to shake
a long slow grind, to a bliss earthquake
close my eyes, lost in the beat
leaving the human realm, barely feel my feet
the vision begins, off for a ride
this is the moment, for which I've tried
Flying flying over a desert land
a lush river divides it, a luscious green band
Soaring so gently weightless the river below
the leaves move lazily, feel the cool wind blow
the thermals they lift me, they elevate my soul
some music it guides me, the path rock n roll
the voices are ancient the figures complex
light music dancing produce such vivid effects
there's no meaning only sound
the colored spheres sparkle
the bodies move round and round and round

Wings
You tell me they love me
you tell me they see
they provide for my safety
and then they beat me
The tears they flowed freely
the years piled up
rebellion it festered,
overflowed young man's cup
They don't give me answers
they don't give me truth
they don't help with homework
just booze and abuse
Why would you love me
but hurt me like this
a belt is a weapon
you don't use your fist
abusers are cowards,
they prey on the weak
they know of the problem
don't dare turn your cheek
Finally, the fortress has a weakness exposed
the time to leave is here, a problem imposed
the problem is simple, just run, baby run
A brother, long beaten, no longer in fear
he takes him a shotgun, and points it right here
right here at the space, between my eyes
to pull the trigger, he tries and he tries
He spares me, I'm grateful
I still choose to run,
I'll never forget, staring IN that shotgun
you tell me they see
they provide for my safety
and then they beat me
The tears they flowed freely
the years piled up
rebellion it festered,
overflowed young man's cup
don't smile, they'll see you
don't make noise they'll know
they might wanna grab you
then hit you some more.
They don't give me answers
they don't give me truth
they don't help with homework
just booze and abuse
Why would you love me
but hurt me like this
a belt is a weapon
you don't use your fist
don't smile, they'll see you
don't make noise they'll know

to pull the trigger, he tries and he tries
He spares me, I'm grateful
I still choose to run,
I'll never forget, staring IN that shotgun

Unspoken Truth
She said she was the one to kiss
she said she was the one I'd miss
before she ever gave me a kiss
Her hair was long it shined so nice
Her hair was blonde it shined so nice
so long and blonde and yes so nice
so nice I have tell you twice
She stood up and she was so tall
she was so tall and that ain't all
her legs looked right, from playing ball
She glanced at me, and I looked back
can I resist the smile attack?
Her face so glad, the joy she had
She looked so good, so downright bad
BRIDGE - SOLO
Just then the band, it blew an amp
I fell back, got a cramp
sat right down, on the wheelchair ramp
She laughed at me, in agony
sitting down , clutching my knee
The girl so sweet, like a sugar beet
laughing insane, while I'm in pain
The band they had another amp
The leg recovered from the fucking cramp
The band they played, sweet music they made
the girl she chanced, with me to dance
my cramp was gone, it took three songs
we had a drink, and got along.
Next week that band, will play our song.

Becoming Safe
up with the sun, my mind is fast
hateful thoughts, a pallor cast
thoughts raise up, like a schooner's mast
feel safe today, no nuclear blast
voices in my head, a complex cast
cast on my wrist, cause I made a fist
I punched the wall, and that ain't all
I fell as far as one can fall
the dark side and I saw it all.
It feels like you're out of control
like you've fell into a hole
saving you? Not a soul
A positive thought can make you whole
and save you from the final blow
it's fun to laugh gently , it's fun to unwind
Boys don't hit people, they talk in tones that are kind
I get noticed , cause I'm kind of tall
I wasn't confident enough to try basketball
too scared to be a team mate
act like a man, when ever I can
from another's eyes,I understand
empathy turns fist to hand
I make the choice to let emotions fly
the thoughts they spin and tumble so quick
the rhymes are lush, the concepts quick
add a drum beat and a guitar lick,
The words I spoke ,yeah they were true
I never meant to frighten you.
my senses can, in time reveal
all the things I truly feel
safety first, the bubble burst
growing up fast, at this age
life is a play, and I pick the stage
problems come, just don't find rage
never feel like a rat in a cage
hateful thoughts, a pallor cast
thoughts raise up, like a schooner's mast
feel safe today, no nuclear blast
voices in my head, a complex cast
cast on my wrist, cause I made a fist
I punched the wall, and that ain't all
I fell as far as one can fall

Searching for Gravity
Everytime you get near me, my weight it goes away
I recall the time I saw you first, like it was yesterday
your light so bright, an aura so right, I fell in love that way
You may think it's sudden, you may think it's weird
but not believing in pure love, is a thing that should be feared
spent lots of time to a dark dark place, and light still reappeared
why fight it, it's good when you bite it
the taste so sweet, sugary shiny shoes, dancing on sweet feet
who the heck knows where the world goes, it turns and it turns and it turns
can passion truly be ignored, when just like this it burns?
So trust is a must, and friendship first, the things that goodness earns
I only seek to walk along, with you to hold my hand
to find a beach, nearly out of reach, then count every grain of sand
hourglass, fancy lass, you always do me right
please take my hand, across this land, come fly with me tonight

why fight it, it's good when you bite it
the taste so sweet, sugary shiny shoes, dancing on sweet feet
so now, yes now, the secret spilled, somehow, somehow the space gets filled
the doctor called, the patient billed, the thought unwilled, free will bears out
whisper, don't shout, be a bridge to peace , at the very least
a lion is regal but it's still a beast. the king he's called, his mane, four walled
the pride is led by several queens, and you know, yes you know,
i wrote it before, make love, make love, don't make no more war.
why fight it, it's good when you bite it
the taste so sweet, sugary shiny shoes, dancing on sweet feet

Ode to an Itch
Thanks for comin to see the show
We work hard at our jobs, as we all well know
I'll do my best to make it worth your dime
I smile when I realize
what it means to give me your time
This itch well it can kill you anyway,
but lots of us,
we try and scratch it every second every day
My subject goes by lots of names,
we could call him death
He played lots of silly games
random expressions of hate,
often spoken under his breath
One night while drunk and stoned, he was trying to be a man
He gave a girl a ride home, doin' the best his cloudy mind can
His car got stuck in her driveway, he left it there to walk that day
He sunddenly thought it fun to go inside a stranger's house
tip toe on the god damn floor as quiet as a mouse
the home owner might have a gun
a cautious thought? he didn't have one
The guy in bed, wasn't ready to be dead
a deal was made, a card was played
The cops drove up and did their job
they protect the people that death might rob
Death followed my friend for 20 years
he caused him pain, hell and tears
My friend is strong, like a bamboo reed
he always found the things he'd need
he loved the world , and cried inside
he had to ascend, he always tried
he acted tough, just not enough
he got real scared, his soul was bared
was he good was he bad, was he ready to be a Dad
The kids they came, they played their game
the made my friend, wanna stick around,
he looked for more, of that love he found
Death he saw , this was no game
His play was right, with all his might
he did the best he could that night
he did break in, and wore a grin
he fought a war for 20 yrs
always knew he would win.

Seasons on the Summit
(with conviction) Burning out won't fade away
A cloud hides the sun from below
Stinging shards of suspended snow
breath of creation, bringing love inside
useless attempt to hold the tide
They used to sing of fire and rain
times of seeing friends again
they used to sing of fire and rain
Not gonna ever lament the refrain
Songs of loss leaving you bold
Laughing at the winter, and spiting the cold.
Trying to find a reason, to do what you're told.
wanting to die and grow old
They used to sing of fire and rain
times of seeing friends again
they used to sing of fire and rain
Not gonna ever lament the refrain
Learning lessons every day
it took a lot of time to get this way
every breath like the first breath
learning love has a bottomless depth
They used to sing of fire and rain
times of seeing friends again
they used to sing of fire and rain
Not gonna ever lament the refrain
I'll never be lonely again
I try to be my best friend
wanna share the love inside
gonna stay this way till they say I've died.
They used to sing of fire and rain
times of seeing friends again
they used to sing of fire and rain
Not gonna ever lament the refrain
(with conviction) Burning out won't fade away
this god damn star is here to stay
