At Night i Feel the Cold,
It burns in a way that some might call satisfying,
I call it pointless.
I blame the bedroom walls... and the ceiling,
the doors, and the windows,
for a world less meaningful than those made in movies.
But i would never even bother the floor.
It spends most of the day being walked on...
it doesn't need to soak in my shit.
I've heard you breathing hear,
"I still have many secrets in this place.
Will you ever bother to ask?"
A whisper of trickery no doubt,
Ha, and you thought me a fool
.....well i'll admit it.
I am, I'm your bloody fool and i'm sick of it.
But the bedroom floor is never gunna say it to your face.
Goodnight...

Shit Hits The Fan
Last night you forgot your f*ckin' manners
Last night you forgot to say hello
This years not over til tomorrow
There's still enough time to forget to grow
Last night your lips fell off the table
Last night you left me for the fall
Last night your smile kept me disabled
Last year was to long to count at all
So this is it, this is what it's like
To take on the world everynight
I thought this time that you might get it
I've never been Mr. Right
Last night i decided to break the strings
Last night the the things i touched were ruined
Last year i was forced to clean my broken wings
This years flight, it crashed, i'm screwed.
So this is it, this is what it's like
to know when to throw the fight
I thought i'd never understand
I've never been Mr. Right
Last night you built this fence
Last you ditched me on right angle road
Last night i choked on my words
Last year it was the fault of my own
So this is it, this is what it's like
to bleed from fingers you write
it's time that you take a look around
I've never been Mr. Right
Last night i kept a word or two myself
Last night you killed some bloody time
Last night we skipped through photo albums
Last year i commited suicide.
Last night it was in the wrong place
Last night i was the right man
Last night the words were erased
Last night the Shit hit the Fan
Last night you forgot to say hello
This years not over til tomorrow
There's still enough time to forget to grow
Last night your lips fell off the table
Last night you left me for the fall
Last night your smile kept me disabled
Last year was to long to count at all
So this is it, this is what it's like

The Things That Only I Know
The snow that fell on a sunday afternoon,
The laughing (like a song) cutting through your room,
lying dead, falling slow.
In the front yard, i wrote some promises and words,
I professed my knowledge for the absence of birds,
and it was quiet as my writings sank in the snow.
But by and by i heard my name
and the things that i just couldn't say
the things that only i know.
Some hot chocolate and bad cinema
your window views the boulevard
where a fire hydrant marks the spot
exchanging whispers to myself
the nervous ticks all day i felt
"playing with the hand that fate has delt."
The dreams you had...... maybe not.
But by and by i heard my name
and the things that i just couldn't say
the things that only i know.
To them i'm just the enemy
to us it was a battery
the power behind the light in our hands
the frozen breaths melting in my mouth
my hands hanging to the south
no room left for doubt
shooting stars are in high demand
But by and by i heard my name
and the things that i just couldn't say
the things that only i know.

Primavera
Stars seem more distant now.
Wonder why you never noticed.
I was so controlled by the tide
and the clicks and clanks on the dock.
I wonder how you never noticed.
How the leaves on the trees
seemed to whisper in the breeze, "tomorrow"
How their breaths seemed to skim across the lake,
singing songs about us,
the kind of songs that only water knows about,
still amazes me how you never noticed.
How the breeze left your hair just right
before everything was dead silent
and only the sounds of night were allowed.
Why aren't you noticing?
How the moon illuminates your soft skin of porcelain,
How it echoes in your eyes,
How it rests on the wake of this restless primavera
and rolls towards us.
You look at me, and the fact that i experience this,
this true nights romance,
trying the footprints to imprint and resonate in your mind...
goes unnoticed,
makes me last another day.
Just so i can prove something to you.

Like That.
You were sleeping than...
winter was over
and the sun peeked through your window
resting its light on your face
i envied each ray,
it's graceful touch sliding across your skin
even though this room was closed
a birds chirp echoed through the stillness
my silence kept you sleeping
I watched you breath
inhale
exhale
and soon our breaths joined
I felt our heartbeats. The Same.
the rythm.
the rising tension
the quick release.
the building suspense.
the relief.
Than softly, sweetly...
movement.
A Yawn.
Breath Sperates.
Hearts Race.
Don't wake!
But calmly you bury you head in my shoulder.
Breathing becomes one.
and pulses interwind.
A pain lingers in my chest, a kind that doesn't hurt.
I can't understand it.
But
Keep me guessing
Just
Like
That.

Still
Yes.
You wanted to know if i was real,
or maybe it was someone else
from the vague discriptions displayed in your letter
I can tell that you will never even find real in yourself.
Whether it was about me or not
the skies opinion should never matter
The clouds whisper can never defeat the determination of heart.
The rain that night can forever leave my memory!
But you chose to run barefoot
to sink in the grass
leave these footprints on my mind.
Run you fingers through the mud.
Just so YOU could feel something.
...don't ask me if i'm real
As if you couldn't tell by the dirt beneath your fingertips.
An illusion.
As soon as the blisters healed you forgot everything.
A disease you passed to me.
An infection to the brain.
Killing all my willingness to give a damn!
Staring at the stars we must have known
that this "train wreck" in the distance
was us.
but who knows, maybe one day the wind will meet your back.

Goodbye To You My Friend
I'll say goodbye to you and me
but only if this memory
stays in side my mind forever
of all the things that we have done
and all the things we've over come
theirs not a day i won't remember
cause if you must go
i won't try to change you mind
i think you already know
what you'll leave behind
i hope we'll meet again someday
but there's something i gotta say
before you are on your way....
i could not have done this without you
to tell me where i was goin wrong
i could not have done this without you
to be all the words to our song
I don't know where i'll be going
or even if i'll meet you at the end
but i just wanted to say before you go away
goodbye to you my friend
but only if this memory
stays in side my mind forever
of all the things that we have done
and all the things we've over come
theirs not a day i won't remember
cause if you must go
i won't try to change you mind
i think you already know
what you'll leave behind
i hope we'll meet again someday
but there's something i gotta say

but i just wanted to say before you go away
goodbye to you my friend

Desiree
I can't believe you're leaving here
and i can't close my eyes no more
you were the music throughout these years
and i just can't write you any more
but when i close my arms
there's something i can feel
without you it's still real
and when i wake alone this way
i know you would have loved a day like today
Desiree
you didn't pack, you left these behind
a t-shirt and some cigerette's
a photgraph of where you went
when you said goobye
i never knew exactly what you meant
and than i closed my eyes
there was something i could feel
the pain was just to real
and when i woke this way
i wondered why it had to be today
Desiree
and even if there is no god
i know you're watching over my life you see
i promised to give you everything i've got
i swear i can feel you in every part of me
but when i close my arms
there's something i can feel
without you it's still real
and when i wake alone this way
i know you would have loved a day like today
i'll follow you across sky someday
Desiree

Welcome To The New Year
She never knew what i meant by that.
counting my swear words,
choosing them wisely.
What eyes to rest on the air behind my head
I am not hear
and i'm certain that my articulation never
made it to the scene either.
what i wanted to say she never heard
and what she listened for were words i never spoke.
She'll never know...
We lay there on the ice,
and i must have whispered i love you a thousand times,
but with each breath the wind carried my whispers to the stars
which, i guess, in any case was true.
I've always had a deep fascination with stars....
I've always had a deep frustration with love.
My face froze that night.
I hope she didn't see me cry,
I hope she never sees me cry.
counting my swear words,
choosing them wisely.

You'll Never Know
There are a number of things you laugh about
and you'll never know the difference.
The soft tones of truth
telling you to leave this world and fly with me
like a tail behind the stars.
You hesitate your answer back
a game to see who has wit,
but i'll stop you where you tell those lies.
No one knows the difference
Infact it's shocking how little people know about there own truths.
"Little did he know" that the phrase it self was what he was missing,
You must have forgot what i was REALLY saying....
you must have taken it different,
who cares really....
i guess i'll try again in my sleep if you dare to meet me there.
I know you think i swallowed pride whole
but lets just take a step back and remember who you're dealing with....

Winter Sun
This is about three people who hate me, One friend that i feel i'm weighing down, and near the end it's about a girl named maria who i love very much... and i know she feels the same.
V1-
Let the cold water raise your hair
it's too late now for a summer swim
the air is chill to freezing bones
maybe this letter was meant to begin.
"This was all just a near death coincidence"
i spit through the air to convince myself
tomorrow might just make the difference
i'll probably pay for it when i reach hell.
CHORUS-
and you'll never really know what's going on inside my head
you'll never really understand this meaning when it's dead
but it's time i take a mental trip
a vacation to feel the winter with sun
so you can take the time to realize that life's better when i'm gone
V2-
i can't quite figure this out
do you know if this plane will crash
will you bother to find my soul
burnt and bruised beneath the ash
the last time my throat felt fine
it was cracked and bleeding without sound
a rasped attack of the mess i made.
my hearts below freezing under the ground.
CHORUS-
and you'll never really know what's going on inside my head
you'll never really understand this meaning when it's dead
but it's time i take a mental trip
a vacation to feel the winter with sun
so you can take the time to realize that life's better when i'm gone
BRIDGE-
and i'm sorry
but you know it's true
i'm sorry
for not forgiving you
but now i'm in love
with someone new
completely in love
and i'm happy too.
CHORUS-
and you'll never really know what's going on inside my head
you never really understood each moment when i was dead
but it's time i take a mental trip
a vacation to feel the winter sun
i don't worry when i'm taking off, she still loves me when i'm gone

Aftermath
V1-
Hold on to what came from aftermath
The towns and cars are trashed
my head is spinning. Crash!
Attention please! We've got a wreck to solve
When i had given it all.
Just to continue falling.
V2-
Keep close i'm not letting go quite yet.
I won't be second best.
I know to much for this.
So if you'll please hold my heart from where it's torn
Cause if you heard them warn

Chorus-
Hold Tight! Good Night!
Don't Forget about me!
Keep Close! I Know!
We can make it through this
storm. And I know you have the will i bet
Don't make me your regret.
You Haven't seen the best of me yet.
V3-
My rain resistence is at it's top
I am ready to rock
with no time on the clock.
The winds contempt is cruel and unkind
but i think that i'll be fine
with your hand next to mine.
Chorus-
Hold Tight! Good Night!
Don't Forget about me!
Keep Close! I Know!
We can make it through this
storm. And I know you have the will i bet

Question Mark
V1-
I am undefined
I see best when i'm blind
and if i fall today
i hope you get outta mind
V2-
I am insecure
i look for hate in things pure
and i've been poisoned
i've been poisoned
i've been poisoned
with no cure.
CHORUS-
How can i tell you what i've become
when you look at me you see no one
i am ready to become
a hero of none.
V3-
I am undefined
I seek things i won't find
and i can't breathe
i can't breathe
i'm not the breathing kind
[chorus]
Bridge-
My name is who
with the question mark
you can see me
and not feel heart
My Name is who
with the question mark
you can see me
and not feel heart
....but it's there
[chorus]
I am undefined
I see best when i'm blind
and if i fall today
i hope you get outta mind

My Name is who

[chorus]
Nobody Cares
Forget what i've said,
nobody cares.
It's raining and the lights are on.
But i'm preparing for amazement.
Knock Knock.
Nobody is home.
A stupid attempt to see humanity.
What a waste of my positive energy,
Nobody Cares.
Their shadows hung around,
dancing on walls,
creating clutter,
they even managed to turn on the lights,
but nobody is home,
and nobody cares.
Behind,
and engine starts with a rattle to intimidate,
I'm caught in the headlights,
but nobody cares.
I know very well what's coming,
but i do not budge,
i will not move a muscle,
.... i don't even really want to.
Because i know now what the deer felt like.
I know
that nobody knows,
and nobody cares,
.... nobody fucking cares.
nobody cares.
It's raining and the lights are on.
But i'm preparing for amazement.
Knock Knock.
Nobody is home.
A stupid attempt to see humanity.
What a waste of my positive energy,
Nobody Cares.
Their shadows hung around,

Roses Blood
V1-
All these people drenched in roses blood
with no hopes or dreams left to hang on
lay melting weakly to the bars and floors
creating dreams of who they were before
V2-
Their teeth chatter forgetting how to quit
How to take the pain that comes with it
No one knows if they'll find love
No one knows if they've had enough
Chorus-
Ah-Oo
Can you help them with something to think of?
Ah-Oo
Can you remove the stain of roses blood?
V3-
Drowning face down in there soul-less tears
Only this could take away their fears
The cold of lonely shivers up the spine
The thought of love a trick of mind
Chorus-
Ah-Oo
Can you help them find what to think of?
Ah-Oo
Can you remove a stain from roses blood?
V4-
All these people Drenched in Roses Blood.
With nobody to be thinking of.
Can somebody show them love?
Or cut them off cause they've had enough?
All these people drenched in roses blood
with no hopes or dreams left to hang on
lay melting weakly to the bars and floors
creating dreams of who they were before
V2-
Their teeth chatter forgetting how to quit
How to take the pain that comes with it
No one knows if they'll find love
No one knows if they've had enough
Chorus-
Ah-Oo
Can you help them with something to think of?
Ah-Oo
Can you remove the stain of roses blood?
V3-
Drowning face down in there soul-less tears
Only this could take away their fears
The cold of lonely shivers up the spine
The thought of love a trick of mind
Chorus-

Ah-Oo
Can you remove a stain from roses blood?

With nobody to be thinking of.
Can somebody show them love?
Or cut them off cause they've had enough?

Hopeless
you'd think now's the time i'd let it go
you'd think i'd learn to lose my pride
you think this year was long enough somehow
to make me lose my mind
and it still haunts the back of my mind
the ghosts of summers supposed to last
it still places memories behind
but i'm still chasing the past
no matter how hard it tries to get away
torturing what's left is my cover
and i'll leave the days i want to stay
i'm just a hopeless something or other
today's the day i leave it all behind
tomorrows the day i regret it
i keep pretending i'm strong enough
but i think i should forget it
no matter how hard it tries to get away
torturing what's left is my cover
and i'll leave the days i want to stay
i'm just a hopeless something or other
and even though i should let it go
i can't just let you walk away
and even though the words you spoke
can't repeat themselves in present day
it's time to show and let you know
it will always be the same
i can't just change
no matter how hard it tries to get away
torturing what's left is my cover
and i'll leave the days i want to stay
i'm just a hopeless something or other
and i'm sorry
you'd think i'd learn to lose my pride
you think this year was long enough somehow
to make me lose my mind
and it still haunts the back of my mind
the ghosts of summers supposed to last

Standing Up
When i flipped the pages,
I saw nothing but black and white.
I begged to see some grey areas.
I noted that each character had a face of strain,
of great difficulty,
but never once contempt.
I watched them drown under the stripes.
Each gasp or attack a result in murder.
Over powering the punctuation mark after fear.
But where were thier guns?
thier weapons?
It was only thier action to take a stand that was completely lethal.
They needed nothing.
They were heros.
They only wanted an idea of what they could do....
......if they so pleased.
And even though the odds are always against them.
An idea to stand up.
At all costs.

Heartless Contender
I've been so branded this heartless contender,
the ofender of viscious riddle-less rhyme.
by them, sick and twisted but none-the-less gifted and
ill-witted by their footwork combined.
So leave me tired
or leave me defenseless
leave me with the poetry they never mentioned
as i'm blinded
by the absentminded style of insult to injury she's pretended.
they don't understand who i've really defended.
they've cut me under the weakest circumstances
as she dances around the facts
she'll bury you alive under made up stars beyond the ceiling of frustrating acts.
I've been so branded this heartless contender
but under any point of view i'll pass.
She's lost control
making me feel cold burying the grave where i stand.
But you can save me
from the strangling thats dangling me from the ceiling of my empty room.
for you understand that this heart does contend
but on for you... and only for you.
By strings and chords i'm lifted from this matress
i'm choking on the art i onced breathed
a lovish mix tape all on through never knowing what to do.
she never understood what i wanted her to keep.
I can hardly think about the fall when i can see it from far,
shining it's golden light beyond my window.
by these words i'm sold Autumn is making me feel old
and i'm running with you to no place in particular.
so leave me tired
and leave me defenseless
you knew all along that i really meant this
stop her relentless strikes to my throat
i'm safe here in your arms
but how do you feel?
now that you know this is real?
this heartless contender has taken his kneel.
and will look for you among each star.
and that's how i always want it to be.

Hopelessly Bound
If we were all realists....
the streets of hopeless romantics would be endless.
Searching for the one thing that we as humans need most......
Whether you may believe my thoughts
and semi-twisted inquisitions
child-like theories and opinions
I've got something called hope for this 4 letter word.
it's something to hold
to breathe
sometimes cold
but can relieve
because this feeling is all fed in to one
love is everything like the color white
all colors in one making a brilliant bright
without them all it would be a darkness right?
or is this dreaming...
but when i'm dreaming i've fallen in love
so it can't be darkness with that mysterious light above
giving me something.... someone... to think of
because i'm a realist
i know i can't live without this
i need this
feeling
lately it seems like i'd be nothing
if i weren't hoplessly bound to a four letter word named love
the streets of hopeless romantics would be endless.

Kissing You
if i had to somehow form
some way
to describe what it's like to kiss you
i'ld say that:
it's like some kind of magnetic engery
feeling something in the air just wanting to pull our lips together
when i feel the fire of your eyes melting me
they seem to know me better than any other eyes
they create this moment in your arms where i feel completely safe
when our faces are just inches away
and i can feel your breath on my face
calming me
warming me
making me know that you have the same thought on your mind
letting my mouth beg to be kissed
i know that this moment
right where we sit
the very earth we are apart of seems to stop
letting us hear the complete utterly beautiful sound of silence
a sound so loud that it could smooth oceans
crumble hills
and shatter the stongest men to completely nothing
.......but it brings two people together
it expresses an emotion so powerful
that the universe itself couldn't stop itself from loving this moment.....
but that's not even describing what it's like to kiss you
that's describing the perfect moments before
sometimes i like that better even
looking deeply in eachothers eyes
noticing the velvet glide of cheek to cheek
that feeling of so much in love
only to be completed by the
unbroken, uninterupted, unvarying, collision of my lips upon yours
that soft touch
that moment where i understand that i am the happiest i have ever been
that exact pinpoint second where i know how much in love with you i really am
and when i know you feel the same
i know that this is perfection
in every way
shape
and form,
just.....
