A MAN WHO DOESN'T LOVE EASILY (LOVES TOO MUCH)
I knew you from before
your mom was at the door
I caught you at the store
don't think so
I met you once I know
and you can call me bro
you've got my back for sure
but what of my front
a man who doesn't love easy
a man who loves you too much
I know your hunger's a demon
so you should ask them to lunch
knew you upon a time
your mom was against crime
I borrowed 20 dimes
I don't smoke
to look into your eyes
is frightening, no lie
but I ain't scared to die
I've eaten edibles
a man who loves you too easy
a man who doesn't love much
I know you know I know reasons
so why don't we get in touch

Wonderful & Strange

WONDERFUL & STRANGE
learn from the sidewalks
the puddles grow thick
turn to a new light
your limelight makes sick
wonderful tamed me
strange disagrees
you'll see if you cage me
death to the daisies
down with the twigs
let's grow a grass yard
picture perfect
how wonderful is strange
it's strange to never change
we need it for our brain
or not to stay the same
wonderful tamed me
strange disagrees
you'll see if you cage me
give me the woodlines
grant me forrests
hide me from humans
with bushes so thick
how wonderful is strange
it's strange to never change
learn from the sidewalks
or get hit with bricks
how wonderful is change
we need it for our brain
wonderful tamed me
strange disagrees
you'll see if you cage me

Crowbar To My Heart

CROWBAR TO MY HEART
you'd have to take a crowbar
to get in my heart
you'd have to rip my scarred heart
all apart
you're not yourself
in front of everyone else
all hail your mystic garden
force fed your sour grapes
crowbar or key
no one gets the best of me
so far, I'm free
but not for long with this heart
you'd have to take a crowbar
to get in my heart
you're not yourself
in front of everyone else
all hail your floating carpet
I'm friends with Gravity
crowbar or key
no one gets the best of me
so far, I'm free
but not for long with this heart
all hail mythical creatures
monsters with which to see
crowbar or key
so far

ONE DAY THIS SADNESS WILL END
and one day this sadness will end
& I will not laugh or offend
owe yourself that much
and one day this sadness will end
& I will not laugh or offend
I know why I was sad
it was a lack
owe yourself that much
and you, why are you sad?
how do you expect to face the day
or fight it back?
and one day this sadness will end
& I will not laugh or offend
owe yourself that much
and one day this sadness will end
& I will not laugh or offend
owe yourself that much
and one day this sadness will end
& I will not laugh or offend
I know why I was sad
it was a lack
and you, why are you sad?
how do you expect to face the day
or fight it back?
one day it will end

As Midnite

AS MIDNITE
careful, this is midnite
don't stare in her eyes too long
social, like a fist fight
not scared if she's not alone
substantial, this is lowlight
can't rely on fear for long
and you want to know
what holds you still
soft spoken soul
with looks that kill
hopeful just for daylight
but not enough to place bets on
mind you, she's still midnite
built with silence, made too strong
you ought to know
with stars I chill
your broken glow
fabulous still
day broke
& she's the only sky tonite
so weep!
if you must cry
midnite

THE OLD RUSTIC SUCKERPUNCH
how quickly we forget
we were taught lessons then
our heads get so big
when colored paper makes us rich
our heads grow so sick
when colored paper makes us rich
did you forget where you came from
can you remember the truth
old rustic shows what he's made of
uppercuts out of the blue
roundhouses right to the tooth
how quickly we forgive
justified with consequence
to do it again
without knocking off their grin
to do it again
much to my chagrin
did you forget where you came from
can you remember the truth
old rustic shows what he's made of
uppercuts out of the blue
roundhouses right to the tooth
did you forget where you came from
must I remind you again, son
magic does not really happen
you've been duped into thinking you know some
& I'm the old rustic sucker ot punch one

When The Will Is Invoked

WHEN THE WILL IS INVOKED
bookworm, no opinion
reads words, takes no action
feel good - sit & be dumb
you should numb your brain some
have me a toke, I'd be amazed
when the will is invoked
ah, so is the brain
move, learn, take won't won't come
sky, earth, we're just fractions
who? where? when? what? why? was?
truth burns but lies hurt most
have me a toke, I'd be amazed
when the will is invoked
ah, so is the brain
it's just you doing things . . .
look, learn, don't be so numb
knowledge ain't opinion
have me a toke, I'd be amazed
when the will is invoked
ah, so is the brain
thinking's provoked, evolving again
they're all blowing smoke
up your yin yang

DOLTS, DUNCES, DULLARDS & DUMBELLS
when it rains, it pours
a good ole hail storm
pouring down in streets
oh how we expect these things
faster thinking
designed by defect
greed motivates more speaking
your piss poor thinking brought you here
your piss poor thinking makes me scream
your piss poor thinking
when it rains, it storms
it's what an ark's for
drowning clowns
oh how we expect these things
faster thinking
designed by defect
greed motivates more speaking
your piss poor thinking brought you here
your piss poor thinking makes me scream
your piss poor thinking
are you gonna fight back,
are you gonna
are you gonna
are you gonna
when it rains, it pours
a good ole shit storm
hailing down
when it rains it pours

THE HURT I FEEL IS MY HURT
run away, cannot stay
all the mistakes that we made
the hurt I feel is mine, today
your salve won't soothe it
the crime scene's ruined
& now there's no proving it to me
sun to save
cleanse my plate
don't be ashamed
chance kills fate
your salve won't soothe it
the crime scene's ruined
& now there's no proving it to me
the hurt is a painted moon
the moon is the gloom
that's taking the tide away
turning the waves on you
you think it's a tidal game
but I'm not amused
you think I'd await that fate?
without changing moods?
the hurt I feel is the same
you feel it too
you call it blue
the hurt I feel is mine
to dine

THOSE PUPPET STRINGS
your elbows just don't move
enveloped in string
your halo's adorned you
as devilish being
I don't know...
they move you, convinced to
connect moves to string
to spite you, you're tied to
a new role of cling
they own you...
your brainstem is so dead
it's useless...
you move & do what you "should" do
you choose a life of not to choose
you bruise when slammed into the truth
you screw instead of grinding through
you fool a puppet isn't cool
get used to other peoples' rule
those puppet string hung you
