Today Is Not the Day

nothing ventured
nothing gained
i am winner of the zero sum game
stay away today
treading water
cause i don't drink
i dont dive
'cause i will sink
so stay away today
occupied
but life is a bore
soaking in it
but not absorbed
stay away today
waiting hoping
as life unfolds
will i find love
before i'm too old
'cause i stay away
today is not the day

Unique
02:36
|

i'm unique
i cannot speak
in a world that doesn't cater to the meek
i'm unique
such a freak
i just want to hide and never seek
perched above a silent chasm
the waters not too deep
as long as i stay silent
my secrets safe to keep
i'm unique
i cannot speak
life is for the bold and not the weak
im unique
the future's bleak
everyone gets by and i just squeak
hiding in a silent bubble
in quiet desperation
words are too much trouble
no temptation no libation
i'm unique

GPS
03:13
|
|||
nothing fills the big empty
like a heart that sings
and the joy it brings
noones gonna tempt me
from that brass ring
my soul mate needs a gps
where she is i cannot guess
she is lost i am grounded
surrounded by happiness
i'll pray to the god
who gives good spaces
to sort through the faces
the peoples the places
it's no longer in my hands
i've no demands

Leaves
02:51
|
|||
i am
ready as the
autumn leaves
start to flutter
in a gentle breeze
i am restless
like before a sneeze
its gonna be epic
watch for debris
all is peace and quiet
this is heaven i cant deny it
noone's gonna get on my nerves
happy couples get what they deserve
once again
it's safe in the bubble
sometimes love is too much trouble
all is peace quiet
this is heaven i wont deny it

Got Away
04:21
|

You come near
But then you disappear
You're off your meds
You need to clear your head
You made it clear
that you're just not into me
I see I see
that it wasn't meant to be
message received
despite what i believe
i see i see
i might as well just leave
We make a date
you show up really late
You're a busy bee
you have no time for me
You made it clear you're just not into me
I see I see
I might as well just leave
But i know no matter what you say
That I'm the one
the one that got away
the one that got away

borderline personality
too self-absorbed to see
beyond your inventory
of the faults you find in me
u always want to start a fight
nothing that i do is right
easily offended
you've always pretended
you're normal and not uptight
money wasted on therapy
you know your issues but still blame me
noone else matters
your world would shatter
if you woke up to reality
you never care how i feel
cause it's me who must always deal
the path to hell
is paved with eggshells
so i'll leave you alone to heal

Freedom Feels
03:40
|
|||
I am a third wheel
I am a fifth wheel
I am a seventh wheel
this is how freedom feels
this is how freedom feels
no pet names
there are no lover games
just the same old same
this is how freedom feels
this is how freedom feels
I am a third wheel
I am a fifth wheel
I am a seventh wheel
This is how freedom feels
and it's far too real

Persona Non Grata

Persona Non Grata
You've got a lot of nerve
Despite my reserve
I hope you get what you deserve
Persona non Grata
You are gum on my shoe
You're stuck to me
And I can't get rid of you
Every time you're in my space
I descend into that place
Of despair
But you don't care
Why do you show up everywhere?
Persona Non Grata
I thought there'd he happier times
But I didn't see the signs
Because of my foolish pride
Persona Non Grata
I am doing well
Though I've been through hell
No one asks and I don't tell
Every time you're in my space
I descend into that place
Of despair
But you don't care
Why do you show up everywhere?

Bring It On
03:59
|
|||
out of the dark
the light is gleaming
it's so stark
but where's the meaning
the earth it still turns
it dont revolve around me
the sun breaks through
a god i'm understanding
out of the dark
the light is gleaming
it's all real
no deadened feeling
nothing is perfect
but everything's sacred
nothing is magic
until you make it
Bring it on

Smile
03:07
|
|||
I'm going under
I once heard thunder
But now theres a rumble
I stumble
and fall
I start to wonder
in the spell i'm under
can i smile through it all
smile through it all
it's only a while
till you get to dial
and make the call
and it all
will be so far away
and today won't even be
a memory
you're on your way
