Look at me
Look at me now
I'm still the same person
I'm one of the crowd
I look a little fatter or slim down works just fine
This illness takes it all in vain
I'm doing
Doing fine

I sometimes eat your head off
I sometimes rage I'm mad
I blame it on the tablets
I blame it cos I'm bad

One day I'm getting off here
Don't worry you'll be fine
Just hold my hand for freedom
Oh please
Oh please be kind

No ****** music drama
Or silly crossed out signs
Go rock about the ages
The V for victory sign
The V for victory sign

Now that is one big party
Where I can never play
Don't worry I'll be watching
The drinks are on the wake

So morbid I can be sometimes
But better I will get
Ya gonna have to wait a while
Cos I ain't leaving yet
My time on here ain't over
A pain that I can be
We'll celebrate another year
Till I be 93


Dedicated to a friends daughter  x x

You cannot see the pain I feel
No expression from my hurt
Yet that look in your eyes makes me
Cry a little
I'm bleeding from my heart

Crying on the inside
Cry myself to sleep
I only want to hold you
Wake me from this dream

You turned the other corner
The reach was never near
Left behind I'm nothing
All hope
My dream
The fear

Crying on the inside
Cry myself to sleep
I only want to hold you
Wake me from this dream

And now the chair is empty
Just standing all alone
The cold has taken over
Ripping out my soul
Now your gone

Crying on the inside
Cry myself to sleep
I only want to hold you
Wake me from this dream

My inner peace draws a breath from the flowers
Stained in tears
There they lay cold wet and lonely marking a time
A wish that hurt all love
No one deserve
No time again
Only sorrowed brow
As I bowed my head

The weeks passed and the winds came
Time did not heal the open
Life for someone else remained in my thoughts
Memories of my home came into view
Remembering the blurred colours of my past
From the passing of my loved ones
Still the flowers marked
The place

A year passed through the seasons
Time stood still in someones house
A room now dusty
A car not moved
Clothing still scented of the past
And there I stood
Lonely
The flowers fresh
The colours of beauty amongst the
Sadness of the day
A mark now etched
As I bowed my head

Letters in the Alphabet

To some words mean everything
To me its all in the music

You see Abc gave me that
Lexicon of love
And I could only Imagine what
Lennon thought
Yet Pulp gave it all for the
Common people
But Bowie was my Hero
Good old Amadeus Rocked me at parties and
Boy George never hurt me as my
Enigma would always return me to innocence
Whilst at the back of my mind I would
Muse to thinking Time is running out

As you sip your morning coffee
Or tuck into your toast
Remember all the good things
And those you love the most
Cos this could be your last day
For giving up the ghost

So we'll celebrate you madly and sing to Elton John
The bottle looks quite empty as we
Celebrate your gone
Now your 6ft under
We'll sing to you your song
We'll ...sing.. to you your song  

You could fall out a window
From way up in the sky
Walk into a plank thats there
Drops you like a fly
I'll bet your just not thinking as
It drives you of the edge
The devil an the deep blue sky are
Really quite impressed


So we'll celebrate you madly and sing to Elton John
The bottle looks quite empty as we
Celebrate your gone
Now your 6ft under
We'll sing to you your song
We'll ...sing... to you your song  

A look into the heaven's
Or is this living hell
To wondered all this fuss round here
It's hotter and you smell
So welcome to the place I love
Welcome to our world
Welcome to this place called earth
Welcome to my hell  
Welcome to my hell..

As the sun rises and the clouds clear from my mind
Come back my lover
Come back my way
Don't forget what we loved for
Please oh please do stay

The glasses full on empty all hope now washed away
I need you here beside me
I want you every day
Come back my lover
Come on back my way

I wish a new horizon in one we holding hands
Come back my lover
Come back my way
Don't forget what we loved for
Please oh please do stay

Four weeks and still I'm waiting our time is nearly up
My love for you is fading
I drink another cup
Come back my lover
Come back oh please I pray

A sigh of sadness leaves me I'm on another stage
Please call me in the morning
My love for you is grey

Come back my lover
Come back my way
Don't forget what we loved for
Please oh please do stay

Everyday they attach to us
They define our looks
Make our worth
Show our importance in this world
Yet what do they mean
They mean you follow

We follow whether we like it or not
The ***** on the street to the presidents men
Be it a fine wine or the cheapest ale
The label is always on show
Always there to prove your worth
Always there to show you follow

I don't like labels
My mind has a different kink
Yet everyday I follow just like you
Everyday I wallow in my shame
For being just a label

A label of sadness
A label for taxing
A label in age

And as my chuckle becomes a laughter
I feel that once again the label wins
As you read these lines
As you gather your thoughts
A new label is formed
For me
So it continues
