So here it is the start of a new chapter in life and the return to an avenue of expression that helped me grow. Since that growth I've felt stagnant with nothing new to offer the world. Perhaps I stopped being so blunt about my ambitions in life and about my opinions of the world. I seem to have an opinion on everything but instead of expressing ( Read more... )

Ain't No Reason
By Brett Dennen

There ain't no reason things are this way
It's how they always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way, we do it everyday
Preachers on the podium speaking of saints
Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change
Old ladies laughing from the fire escape, cursing my name
I got a basket full of lemons ( Read more... )

Ray Lamontagne
Gone Away From Me

For a while I sat there staring at her photograph

For a while I cried and tried not to make a scene

There was a time when we were young

I used to make her laugh

But life is long, my love has gone away from me

Gone away from me

Gone away from me

Life is long, my love ( Read more... )

Circles
By JJ Grey & Mofro

Some say that I wronged you but I don't know how ⁄ If I could make it right you know I would, you know I would ⁄ ⁄ So please forgive me for what some other man did too you ⁄ Before I came along ⁄ Cuz I don't want to go on fighting and fussing over something ⁄ I can't change at all ⁄ ⁄ There's no way I can change the past or ( Read more... )

Not because the idea wasn't great or the plan was faulty but because they could not come up with the cash as they thought, so.... so yeah it's been disheartening bordering on depressing lately but not really getting to depressing cause well ( Read more... )

Aura No. 3

You should know
that they couldn't create a mirror
that could begin to
show you half the things
that I see in you.
Cause,
more important than your face
and your shape,
I'm in love with the woman
you're becoming.
And, I can foresee a day
where your hair
is mostly gray.
And, your smile shows
intense living
and no one can
look ( Read more... )

Think I flirted with insanity

Bared feet in the middle of the street

Reality confirmed, mind ain’t playing tricks on me

Glass Shattered, blood splattered

A Geto boys tale punching on the concrete

Proof that he never really did care

My Father cheated on my mother

This is the manifestation of betrayal, hate, despair

With the pounding of three keys

I’m about ( Read more... )

God and pussy.  Objects of desire and ill repute

Some’d rather seek up high, than dig and grind

That inner truth.  The angel of my eye a bit too fly

To substitute with any other form than the messiah’s.

Black Maria, mother ship, grandmother moon

And sea.  The wave and form of beauty born

Of Eden’s apple tree.   And every single atom

Stands erect and ( Read more... )
