Circle Birds circle around high in the sky waiting for to feed The noises are familiar the children scream of greed The beach is long and baron like the town turning just to thieve I don't quite know what happened maybe the laughter caught the breeze Go down to the pleasure beach and you must pay to enter as people with sad faces leave A world full of anger and no ride is going to help you or make you feel pleased

Drink Drink this wine together from the vine Transcend our time We're drunk and feel sublime Absent are bad memories only good ones shine Childish rhyme but truth I find This was a crime asleep when I should design Soon he'll be blind No roadside signs Only my teeth to grind

Tribute What the hell are you supposed to do When bombs go off and there are children dead who were brand new The man in the gutter all he needs is some warmth and a little bit of food Are people so harsh to be blind Is this reality or just a state of mind A leader can't lead what they don,t understand It,s **** or be ****** in our fair land Is this something that we never ever planned All this time is just a grain of sand.

Tribute
Complicated simplicity The leaves have been here all summer, Now it's time to go Bare Trees look so simple The branches are like veins so far to grow The dark brown of the early evening Trees, Looks adventurous like the birds that seem to hang around an old man's crown Beneath lies moss and mushrooms Dead trees all twisted around to look like your staring through stained windows The ground is muddy and leaves footprints Where to go to now It's easily done to get into a different world To leave is never so easy.

Complicated simplicity
Secrets Words said but not quite yet Time-bound minds to never forget That is why we try so hard and always regret The things not done and the things that are not let I look back now and wished I'd died instead I'm always upset For people who never took that extra step There is a God and he watches then showers us with mortal debt The memories are a puzzle that your mind unravels accept, accept.

Secrets
Another name Cry little boy for soon this will make you humane I did not know what I'd done wrong but later it was clear in pain The song in my head was playing over again and again and again My soul so sad I felt forgotten just standing drowning in the rain Emptiness is an empty vessel that I'd drunk just to ease the shame I feel inside like a forest of fire when it spreads with just one flame You were my only baby and I to you are just another name

Another name
Watching You Someone is watching you in the dark A lamplight flickers a bright blue spark Trees become thieves that want to take you and make their mark Pathways become noisy and every bit of gravel you step on is an alarm bell for the dogs that bark What you once sought is seeking you In your mind your worried too Helpless and ridiculous eyes look new The older you get the closer it reaches for loneliness the ghoul

Watching You
Visual To see with eyes of such clarity of hue To wake each morning to see a different colour because you looked closer than you usually do To understand why strawberries are so red and they taste much sweeter too To dedicate one life to observing why people live in such light and darkness within a mind that has every colour on a palette to hand like a magician with swords daring their intellect to those not knew To show what was missing in the picture by pronouncing it's very existence because it's part of you.

Visual
White Building Moving slowly as frequency attaches it's self to it only Dunes cover vast lands moulding shapeshifting like this snake lonely No one is your friend and friends are misguided to their own ends coldly A road going one way and another exactly the same choices are given and taken away this the wise man told me A hawk I've been following hopefully will lead me to a garden with white buildings carved from stone and windows of stained glass colour the interior like a fatherless child only with light to guide then you can truly see Sit in contemplation in the centre of this building and things will be as they surely should boldly solely

Worry Flowers they are just tears when god does sing Birds live on their fears but they have wings Figure out what you have before time blows in the winds Sunshine in a bright new spring spreads the clouds and sins You can't wash me clean because humans have to win
