Everyone’s the same on the bus Yes everyone’s the same on the bus Rich or poor either or everyone’s the same on the bus The bus is not about character one could be brave or one could be meek nor is it about where you’re headed and if you’re going to shout or to sneak and if it isn’t about where you’re headed then it isn’t about where you’ve been and it isn’t about what you’ve done and it isn’t about what you’ve seen Everyone’s the same on the bus Yes everyone’s the same on the bus Weak and tough Posh and rough Everyone’s the same on the bus On the bus none of it matters a man could be in sickness or in health on the bus he is simply going from one place To somewhere else

The Bus
Oh lucky me I have my friends I have beginnings I have my ends I have control I have my head I have my roof My door and bed Oh lucky me I have been blessed With time to work And time to rest Food to eat And wine to drink And time to just Sit down and think Oh lucky me I have the love Of my mother & father And those above I have their knowledge When I fret Because I ask And so I get Oh lucky me I have so much That I can just Reach out and touch And even though This is all mine There is more to come How divine

Repeat
if you listen hard enough there's a buzzing, it's this realm doing it's thing, and no matter what we do to disturb it, the buzzing will still buzz, ring ring ring. the buzzing has always been there and the buzzing will never go, it's in you, me, the trees, the worms, the sky and everything down below. the buzzing is hard to describe, but you can feel it if you try, it's what connects everything to everything else, from way down low to way up high. the buzzing makes things work, and the buzzing keeps us alive, the buzzing shines sun on our crops, and rains on us so we can thrive. The buzzing was made a long time ago, by something or someone that people call God and some talk to the buzzing and ask it things, to which the buzz gives a nod. Don’t look too hard for a reason why something does what it does, everything just happens because it happens and they happen because of the buzz. the buzzing was there before we were, and before anything else was too, and when we're gone it'll just look for something else to send it's lovely buzz through.

ups and downs
i sometimes have days where i float in dreamy haze and i'm having em more and more often nowadays i used to have days where i felt lost in a maze but i'm finding myself more and more often nowadays feelings are hard I've felt all types of ways But I'm feeling better and better nowadays and I find myself wondering if the reason it stays is cos I get high more often nowadays

Try to love anyone who needs it who looks a little alone and try love yourself cause you can't see their goodness until you see your own

Security guard sitting alone bank holiday, the nights soon gone, he sits & waits to hear the phone but nobody, thinks, he's on his own Son & daughter far away growing up, while he's growing grey, soon to decide which way to go their love hidden, unable to show The last few years haven't been sweet, Raynham, Vancouver, Sidney St, roots torn up, hearts torn out no wonder the only answer is a shout One day soon, my little Rose may forgive, and let her loved ones begin to live, instead of living the American Dream as the second Miss Watts, she'll gleam or scream

'bank holiday blues' - by my grandfather, mid 80s
wakes from his slumber foggy eyed and rough too much ***** last night voice shallow and gruff the medicine he's chosen the hair of the dog he walks to the off-license the air still thick with fog he sits alone just him and a bottle feels nothing as the ***** pours down his throttle starting to feel it laying on the couch half-cut listening to the radio as the ***** churns his gut he wastes most the day watching films and talking **** doesn't go out stays confined in his pit spends his evening drifting in and out of sleep sometimes thinking about life and sometimes starting to weep he goes to bed unable to see another day spent in a downward spiral and he’ll repeat this tomorrow and the next because it’s nothing but a cycle
