Grey fell into the valley ..blown in by our Lord
distance disappeared as waves in the sky took over the land
a storm was brewing..God was angry
an anger about to be unleashed upon this wonderful earth

First came the drops ...splish  splash upon the dry dusty road
one then two then the heavens opened and God cried
pools appeared as dust melted into mud... he was crying hard
wind followed ...faintly at first like a child blowing a kiss then
a wrath of gales lashed this earth like no one had seen or been to before
and God cried some more

Clouds of grey formed into black as day became night
the grey was now a black and God roared with a growl that shook the earth
yet his crying never stopped as wind,rain and thunder made us hide within our home
his sign was here ... our signal found  

time we changed our ways
time we loved this earth
time we took a hold
time we listened to our hearts

We understood the rules as the black faded away
the air suddenly became so fresh a new spring was on its way
a rainbow fell up out the sky... a sign that we all knew
dance to the sound of the blackbirds voice a new day has become

1am and the sun aint up
my writings gone and my head is stuffed
Mind is empty yet full of nothing
what with me!! yes eyes a puffing

The dead of the night feels so into me
all is quiet with nothing to see
the eerie silence creeps around as ants sound their armies chant
spiders wake and pace the floor
webs all spun for dinners door

2am and still I'm here
coffee's on awakens clear
still its racing all inside
madness calling ...all is fine

behind me a chair creaks its night time call
In house ghost welcomes all
sounds from above as sleep takes over
snores and wheezes battle Stevens
yet still near dawn I am awake
sounds of silence not for all

3am its snack eat time
snips of sugar dunked like wine
3 cup gone and I'm still buzzing
body calling sleep not coming

Birds now join my early day
different meanings all the same
songs in progress sounds so sweet
that'll stop me from a sleep


Yet the world awakes another morning
a life begun a day a dawning

5 years till now
5 hours it felt
since that very day
5 minutes or seconds
but now so far away

Dear Father oh father I miss you
Dear Father oh father to hold you
Just one more chance to say I love you

5 years since they took your breath away
5 years since I fell in disarray

Oh Father dear father I miss you
Oh Father dear father to hold you
Just one more time to say I love you

A look that left me on that day
A smile thats gone for good I pray

Dear Father oh father I miss you
Dear Father oh father to hold you
Just one more chance to say I love you

5 years all gone but still I long
A day A minute a second chance
A voice to a Fathers hand

Oh Father dear father I miss you
Dear Father oh father to hold you
Just one more chance to say I love you

I love you
I love you
I love you

seagulls fade into night as clouds of anger lit the sky so bright
feel sounds of trouble as bowling ***** noise my ears
God was playing ...
as the rumble scared me

the rumble had me
the rumble scared me
the rumble knew me  

flashes felt as clouds of anger beat their beat
skin alive under darkness as prickles spiked
my very inner

the rumble had me
the rumble scared me
the rumble knew me  

lights another day as darkness took me in
faded anger yet electric fizzle
god was playing
I scared within
I scared within

dementia

I fear my mind it slips away
a fear of fear a fade away
its started now and scares me bad
my mind is slipping am i mad

No telling time as I forget
what day it is what place I'm at
to finish what I start
my memory gone
a frazzled heart

I see it in their eyes
that look of care yet hope no lies
a tear does form i know not why
my mind is gone
why did I cry ......

The madness war  

Its in the air its in your mind
the wind is hiding a soon be time
they have it ready and bless us all
the mind control ..the madness war

they tell us all will be just fine
its just a smell ..a smell divine
but what they hide the real truth
a madness calling rule the rule

they want to have us grease their palms
to work for them and say no harm
its in the water and in the air
the mind control our inner fear

so soon these words will fade away
as rule controls the words we say
that time will tell them they have won
our minds controlled a madness come

Age comes in

part one

The signs are there as age comes in
my body aches where once id win
can feel the calling my body fades
muscles wasting ..failing grace
breath is shorter the time does wane
fewer winters left to play
grasp more candles whilst you can
age is winning **** you man
creaks and groans yet here I stand
standing tall inside my head
whine all day about my ails
does me good as body fails

Part two

sod this life for I can win an age is inner
I feel thin
take the pills that keep me strong
dance all night and worry none
drink and drink till you fall down
no excuse its on the town
aches all gone just for a bit
wine is winning does its trick
until tomoro when age comes in
I'll party hard and drink the drink

Part Three

Can barely move my body as age has won the day
no grasp upon my life as life has slipped away
my bones are weak and all has failed
human meltdown frail does meek
Yet I remember
the day I danced a night away
I remember
a day I lived a life
I remember
My life I lived
I lived my life
