People blame me for who I am
and what I do
They make me turn and apologize  
But who do I do?
Nobody apologized to me
for making me this way
Who do I blame...?

Know what i noticed?
In this world there are too many songs about finding love
and even more poems about losing it
(I'm one of the drones whos contributed to both)
there are not enough happy people  
and also too many depressing people
(and I'm no spring flower)
too many
there are too many selfish tyrants
and not enough selfless saints
(i wish i was the right one)
there are too many judgemental basturds
and not enough accepting freaks
(i have yet to cast the beam out of my own eye)
there are too many people outraged at something
and not enough willing to go out and do anything
(im too lazy)
but with all this propoganda for both sides
youd think we would have found a winner
and stop the stupid people fighting for the wrong cause
now tell me
which one is right?
and truthfully,
which one are you?

During the time I let my mind wander
Off the leash and down on yonder
Sitting here contemplating life
Where I will go
What I will do,
When will I grow up and not be the fool
When will I learn what I want from myself
Will I be a doctor and care for ones health
Will I be a fireman and drive around town
Fighting the fires that destroy and burn down
Will I be the teacher that everyone loves
The one that pleases and eases the kids through
their time at the building of perdition where they do their crimes
Will I be an astronaut and reach for the stars
shot past the moon and land on mars
Would I go and be the first of my kind
to make friends with an alien mind

Would I be the first to travel to the centre of the earth
or would I stay home with my wife and give birth
to a child
and be able to make their world a better place.
Could they be special and be the first of our race
to do something special
To do something great
To watch them grow up and let that light shine
To be proud of who they are and know that they will
Always be mine
My child my legacy

To go and do what I could not
To have a chance and take their shot
To make a difference and make me proud
To make me happy, to die in peace
To drift away with ease
So when I'm laying down for the final time
I can say boldly "you will always be mine"
Mine to hold
Mine to cuddle
Mine to love
Mine to huddle
Mine to teach
Mine to learn from
Mine to tell and say to go on and live your life your way
Learn from your mistakes and don't give yourself
reason to sit at those lakes in your mind
Full of regret and times where
you wish you had done it different
Said something else
Made a different move
You must live on
You will be great
You will be remembered
You will make a change
You have the potential to change the world

But don't forget the ones you hold
Most dear to your heart
because they're the ones that will stay by your side
Right through your darkest times
They will follow you through
Your blackest hours
and carry you through your hardest times
They will be your lifeline, your life
Even when your drowning in sorrow or feeling alone
They will be right there when you get home
to bring you up and pick you out of your rut
They will make your life worth living
They will offer all they can and keep on giving

So long as you keep on living
A righteous life helping others and showing them light
In their darkest hour and blackest times
Because your words have power
a power to change
a power to wound
a power to heal
a power to be kind
a power to brush away the scars of verbal
blades dragged deep through the recesses of our
minds.
Your words have power
so use them well
Because most times it is hard to tell
How much someone needs them to help them through
Because most times the only one who can
help them through
help them move
Is you

Maracas in the setting sun
Cheche Cheche Cheche
Those special few basking,
standing and relaxing in the starlit rainbow rays
Cheche Cheche Cheche
We party and glee till the daylight dies and opened the night sky's eye
Cheche Cheche Cheche
The sun says as it bleeds across the hot silver sky
Cheche Cheche Cheche
The maroon navy water echoes as it laps up our prints as if we were never here
Cheche Cheche Cheche
As the moon and we reply
We're gonna sing the sky awake as the stars shine their ghosts down to us
Cheche Cheche Cheche
We hear they come and gently lead us back to our place amongst the stars
Cheche Cheche Cheche
Echoes across the empty wake as we fly home the Angels of the night
