There is a battle on the farther hill
The enemy carries an orange flickering flag
The ravages of war has brought a dry cloud
And it rains ever drier dry fall leaves
Oh orange flickering flag do not find me
Do not come to my precious home
Do not come to me while I sleep in the night
And surround me with your dark light
There is a battle on the farther hill
Coming for you and me
Brave yellow suits fight for us please
You will surely prevail
And i'll say to the orange flickering flag
Our golden state, you will not melt and sag!

In this world
In the shallow and deep
A reason to hate creeps
Like algae
floating green
In the sunsets sheen

And we float here
In blind silent fear
Waiting for sunny ignorance to set
And the horror of the murky water
To drag someone to the ghostly under

Boy, you can take me down town
And we can get a bite to eat.
By morning we’ll be wrapped up in a sheet,
A sheet of selfish deceit
Cause you are my red rose in a mist of blue

So take me down town
Just take me a away
I don’t care if it’s a fancy play
Or a date movie cliche
Cause you are my red rose in a mist of blue

If you take me down town
I can act out Shakespeare romances,
Soft glances,
And playful dances
Cause you are my red rose in a mist of blue

My red rose, it’s hard for me love.
I know it’s cruel,
And untrue,
But I refuse
To see through
The truth,
With you.
But if I have to, I’ll say it.
I just want to be loved,
Just want to be loved.
I want to be loved.
Oh, to be loved,
Just simply loved.

I smelled the Bouquet before me
Red and white like brimstone and banshees
But it was too late
their smell had flown away in hate
To heaven’s pearly gate

But remained in the rose’s petal like glove
the last sign of good ole love
But faint it was

And I told my thoughts to shoo
Because there was far too many things to compare it too

If there weren’t liars
There would be mass war
But if there were only truth
The world would be at peace

I felt a little more than the drops on my back
And I slipped into the wishing well
embracing myself in my own skin on the bath tub floor
A ****** sack of twinkling wishes, I only was

I wish I was a child again
A child again I said
Taking a bubble bath in mid day-
I clogged the drain
Laid down
And waited
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting for the water to rise
To my mouth
my nose
My ears and eyes

water bubbles spiraled around
It was clear
White
....warm and bright
Like a Hollywood heaven
The water now reached my mouth
It had the taste of diluted tears
And I panted in the halcyon

Then....held my breath

but yet....
NOW I was farthest from being a child again

Drunk on the stars reflection
I find solace in the orange drooping leaves
I  sink into the mint morning grass
The moon sliver is the color old book pages
The smell of rain is near and far
And over the hill
A little too the left
Is the castle and town
where I spend my Days

And heard in the mountains afar
A bell ringing, deep as a north giants voice
                                   Ringing
                    Ringing
     Ringing
Suddenly Becoming shrill
like a cricket in my ear
Awaking to my alarm
Once again surrounded by books
School books
And a hundred papers
Blank papers under my skinny arms
And we move on
Day
     By
          Day
               By
                    Day
Until we are only dead dusty bones
Forgotten and grey

Pieces of the sky, fallen
Only to lie in the holes of an old street
Only to meet a hurry-home man’s feet
Only to be kicked by a passing cheat

Dreaming to be something more

Something more than to what it was born

To be, at least, to be apart of a business women’s coffee in the morn

I know of a silver moon haired child
Her love neatly filed
But the book of life defiled
In a chair she sat alone
But not for a thing to atone
The chair and her were almost one
With nothing to do for fun
Her breath softly loud
and over her eyes a ghostly cloud
I don't know whether I should pray
Pray for her to see another lonely day
I shouldn't pray for a morning
A morning where golden strands
stretch across the rolling lands
And form warming hands
To take her in, like a fallen baby bird
So no longer would she have to have suffered
Silver moon haired child
I know till the very end you would have still smiled

I wonder where relationships end
and where they begin
Who is nice and who is mean-
No
Who is friend and who is fiend
Because not everything is how it seems
But who are we?
But simple human mortals
Not gods, nor creatures
But simple mortals with their morals

Have you ever just wanted to be...
Simple happy
No sad feelings
Or getting angry

As simple as a tree
As simple as a bee
As simple as life
As simple as anything can simply be

Well nothings really simple at all
Not even a plain old wall
But over thinking this whole thing will be my downfall

So...
Have you ever just wanted to be...
Simply happy
No sad feelings
Or getting angry

I want every bad thing in the world to happen
right now
Just so I can feel normal…am I the villain?
Oh wow

Have you ever watched your best friend go ******* insane?
One moment your in her backyard playing and making forts
Then ten years later she’s trying to **** you
And I tried
Really tried to fix her
Tell her what’s wrong and what’s right
But as much as I’d like to think I was her medicine
I was actually her poison
I’ve been told a thousand times I’m to good for my own good
And now I know that’s true
Cause I could never hurt a fly
Or a leach like her
And that’s how she got worse
Because I let her get away with doing too many things to me
And people like to tell me it’s not my fault
But part of it was
Because I thought I was the hero
and that’s what made her the villain

The world fell
And twisted it’s leg of love
And has waltzed among the stars
With a limp
For a little too long
