I am dedicated to advocating the exploration of perspectives and the expansion of knowledge. I promote those ways of life through remaining an encouraging, compassionate figure that leads by example. I feel that the only way society can function effectively and objectively is by learning how each other thinks and relates because ultimately we are all interdependent.
The girl with the eyes
That crinkle at the sides
That shows she hasn't lost faith in the world just yet.
Don't look at me
I'm not talking about me!
I've seen the good, the bad and the ugly.
And what it boils down to
Is that we're all just ghosts
With our own missed connections
And transparent ambitions.
But that girl with the eyes
That crinkle at the sides
She's got an oyster in a shell,
Waiting for her pearl hotel
Holding on to the idea
That she has a role to fill
But the time will pass
And she'll see that
She's just another ghost with a past.
And when the world has no more girls with the eyes
That crinkle at the sides
I'm convinced we'll all vaporize
And the air will fill with our dusty dreams
And settle to the ground in a thick, ***** film
Then, like a pillow torn at the seams
The cycle will begin again
Starting with white, fluffy hope,
Next comes the question,
Then hits the reality,
And last is the dark, dark feeling that you were wrong all along.
Because, face it...
There is no meaning to life.

I know you hide your thoughts
Behind smiles and comforting lies
You stare up at the ceiling
Your soul transparent through misty eyes
I can see your heavy burdens
Chaos swirling inside your mind
The air is cold with unspoken distance
Why can't you see I'm by your side?
It's clear that you have issues
Tormented by hidden demons
But you could self-medicate
By establishing human connections
Use me! Use me as your mood-stabilizer
To substitute underlying manic conditions
My kiss, to turn pain into pleasure
My body, your security blanket
In the depths of misperception
You try to convince me you're "okay"
Well baby, the things I would do
If only that were true
But through your bouts of crazy
I'll still be here
For you

When all is said and done
I'd do anything for you
I might be distant, cold sometimes
But believe me, it's because
Your power over me bleeds me dry
That carnal, eager smile
Your antsy fingertips
Dancing along my skin
A quick breath causes parted lips
Ah, it's time to go
Someone will see us here
Another time, we'll meet
'Til then I'll miss you dear

Save your anger for another time
Do me like I'm a ***** crime
Use that aggression between the sheets
You know those moves make me weak
If you think
I can't handle it rough
Silly boy
I invented tough
Bedroom, pool table, take your pick
It's time to whip out your cue stick

Tears melt my face as sadness overcomes grace
You see, the night it swallows any light
Happiness is as distant as a dream
Part memory, part fantasy
Insomnia runs through my veins like ice
Keeps me conscious, skitters like mice
But I can't continue this lifeless plight
Changes must be made, I'll be all right
Read the soul, develop the mind
Understand, or risk going blind
Don't take my word for it, hop on board
The meditation train, harmony's restored

Psychedelic raindrops
Dripping lights
So bright, so bright
Like mushroom painted rainbows
Glowing
As angels in the night
While ravers eat their kandi
I journey
Aimlessly through the sky
Making friends with whispy planets
Soaring on my hocuspocus carpets
Don't make me come down
I wanna stay high, melting face forever
Drinking passion from a flask
Enjoying my nonsensical endeavor

When your days are sad and blue
Count on me to be here for you
And when you feel you've got nothing left
Breathe a sigh & take a breath

From deep under the surface
Something stirs
The people of this city
Experienced a tragedy
A horror so traumatizing
The city walls and store blocks
Are scarred, both inside and out
Bullet holes and burnt buildings
Cemeteries filled with graves
Tombs of those who died
When the wrath rushed through
But still it lives on,
The city filled with natives and tourists alike
People sell, people buy
People remember but still people die
It is now a historic monument
But slowly the city repairs
Revealing only a faint scab
Fixed by reality
People say they will always remember
But how long 'til the scab is gone?
Lost, inside the flesh

Stop saying goodbye
Come with me to the sky
Up high we will float
By train, plane or boat
The stars whisper, "Oh hello"
While clouds form below
As our hands intertwine
All the planets combine
In a peaceful harmony
And a tranquil melody
Love can't worry you, my dear
It's in front of you so clear
When I look in your eyes
I see sun, stars and sky
So come into my embrace
We'll fly up into space
The days will get better
As long as you and I
Are together

As the clock ticks and the earth turns
The orbits shift and the fire burns
Peter Pan, Neverland, the Lost Boys
Baby, those ain't nothin' but clever decoys
To lead you astray, lead you away
Convince you that maybe you'll be happy someday
If time could tell the outcome ahead
Perhaps you'd choose a different path instead
But you can't peer forward, can't rewind
No turning back or looking behind
So be content with the present
Don't dwell on the past
And maybe, just maybe
Life won't turn out so bad
